Detective Conan 30th anniversary anime special

Overview

To mark the 30th anniversary of the Detective Conan anime, a two-hour original special titled ‘The Counterfeit Case of Ultra 30’ (also referred to as ‘Detective Conan: 30-gō Satsujin Jiken’ or ‘Detective Conan: The Case of the 30th Serial Murder’) was broadcast on September 25, 2026, via Japan’s Friday Roadshow on NTV.

The plot centers on a national crisis involving highly realistic counterfeit 10,000 yen notes. Following the identification of a counterfeit bill by a document expert, the story follows Conan Edogawa and Heiji Hattori as they investigate a forgery ring. The investigation spans multiple locations, including banknote factories in Nagano, Osaka, Shizuoka, Kanagawa, and Gunma. The production features an ensemble cast including Conan Edogawa, Heiji Hattori, Toru Amuro, and Shuichi Akai, with guest voice actress Eliza Ikeda as Toko Satomi. The opening theme, ‘Hallelujah’, was performed by Mai Kuraki.

Following the broadcast, social media showed high engagement from fans regarding the plot and character appearances. As part of the anniversary celebrations, TVer is providing free streaming of a 36-episode selection titled ‘Akane-iro ni Somaru Omoi!! Heiji & Kazuba Selection’, which focuses on the relationship between Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama. This streaming event is scheduled to run from September 26 to November 7, 2026, coinciding with the broadcast of ‘Akaneiro no Senshuuraku’.
