I would be really delighted if they had a live Kid heist XD I wonder who Kaito would be...? And if they would have a Nakamori-keibu as well... And random Aoko hating on Kid in the middle of the crowd XD
(Almost typo'd crowd to crows. Well.)
Then again it might not be tht huge of a thing, haha XD

Well. Kid was right. It certainly lacks elegance. #-.-
The gist of it is that the player goes into the restroom but gets locked in and has to solve a mystery to escape. And there's no running water. The toilet won't flush. And the player really, really has to go, but he can't. Will he get out in time before he soils himself?!
Really, really lacks elegance. It's ridiculous. I'm saving your time by not literally translating it all. Seriously in contention for one of the silliest, crudest things I've ever translated. I suppose crude isn't the best word for it, but...it's LITERALLY potty humor. Ha! How meta.

Ooh. Yeah. I'm going to side with Kid on this one, and hope very much that there will be a live heist to make it better >.> " steal the toilet! Steal the mystery! I don't care, so long as Kid pops in for something XD

I don't know whether to be impressed or to shake my fist at whomever wrote that plot summary in the first place. Goodness. It kind of reminded me of Naruto in the beginning with Naruto and his blunt crudeness. But then Naruto got better. But then I stopped reading it for some reason.
Aaaaanyway, yes. I'm really hoping for something. Some additional source of information too would be awesome. I'm so confused right now. I guess all we can do is wait and see.

Yeeeeeeaaaaaaah, Kid, thank you very much for sending that advance notice and giving us something better, whatever that may be. And it WILL be better, right? If it isn't, I'm gonna send Aoko and her mop after you . . . somehow. I just found this online (had to search in actual Japanese to find it though): news.mynavi.jp/news/2014/12/20/091/ Does it have any new information or is it just the same thing?

Just the same info. Nothing really new that would give us any idea about what to expect. I guess we'll just have to wait until midnight Christmas Eve. I wonder if that's midnight of the 23rd into the 24th or of the 24th into...never mind. It would make more sense from the 24th into the 25th because then it would be a Christmas present from Kid. Oh well. Good work, Natsumi!!!

*siiiiiiiighs* Oh well. And yeah, I'm wondering that too. But technically the 23rd into the 24th is when midnight would be the start of Christmas Eve, so technically it'd be on Christmas Eve like he said, right? I don't know. You're welcome ^-^ Actually, I looked that up before I noticed your post about wanting additional information ^^; Guess we were on the same track, huh?

Do any of these make any sense to anyone else? realdgame.jp/conan/challenge.htmlI've got the easiest ones トナカイ and しょうがくせい, but the others just aren't meaning anything to me at present. I think I've got some idea about number three, though. It's kind of puny/wordplayish. I'm wondering if number six doesn't have something to do with Go, but that could be totally wrong. Hmmm. :/ Anyone got anything?

I'm sorry. I got wrapped up in the challenge and forgot to translate the newest developments for everyone. ^.^; Sorry.
Okay, so. I've learned what the Real Escape Game is. It's not a video game, it's a real life event where people get together and are locked in a location where they have to solve puzzles and riddles to escape! Cool, right? They have all sorts of different themed events like escape from zombies and aliens and stuff like that. The event takes place all over Japan, kind of like a traveling exhibit at a museum or something.
In the past it looks like they've done two other Conan-themed escapes: Escape from a Skyscraper and Escape from the Orient Express. This time the game that's premiering next year (I think it said March 20, 2015) is "Escape from Magician's Castle". The setup this time is that Kid has sent a notice for a gem that lies sleeping in a castle. You team up with Conan to stop Kid and get to the bottom of things. Sounds super cool, right? Much better than escaping from a western style toilet, anyway.

What I was talking about in my second to last post was a challenge that I found in one of the archived files from one of the previous escapes, Escape from the Skyscraper. Here: realdgame.jp/conan/challenge.htmlWhat it is is a crossword puzzle. There are six clues in the form of riddles that you have to solve in order to get the word to fill in the blank. After you solve all of the riddles and fill in the blanks, you read one of the lines across, and it give you the answer, the "key" to "escaping the page". I figured out two of the clues, but I don't get the other four. Anyone else got any ideas? This is super fun!

Okay. So I've managed to solve the across line, the "key to escaping the page" based on the blank na blank no blank ga blank I got from solving the two clues I already had. (The no was given in the first place.) I still have no idea what the other four clues mean, but now at least I have some hints. {Spoiler: Click to view/hide} It's Conan no megane. So you go up to the top of the page where there's a picture of Conan right next to the crossword puzzle, and you click on his glasses. A pop up pops up and says "Congrats! You got it! If you were able to solve this puzzle, you may have what it takes to play the real escape game!"

Oh, that sound really cool! Unfortunately, I can't read kanji . . . or know most Japanese words . . . So is this "Escape from the Magician's Castle" Kid's present to us? Wait, nvm, I think that's right, cuz the Conan portal website has it up ^-^
