Detective Conan Faces The Black Organization in New Kurogane no Submarine Visual

The Detective Conan movie Twitter account has revealed a new combined poster visual for Detective Conan: Kurogane no Submarine that depicts Conan and his allies on one side and the Black Organization on the other. The poster will go up in Japanese theaters from February 3.

Detective Conan: Kurogane no Submarine is set to begin screening in Japan on April 14. A compilation film titled Detective Conan: Ai Haibara Monogatari ~Kurotetsu no Mystery Train~ started screening on January 6.

The new Detective Conan movie sees Conan and the Detective Boys being invited to Hachijojima Island by Sonoko Suzuki for whale watching. Near the island, an ocean facility called the Pacific Buoy, which serves to connect the security cameras of police around the world, is testing a new technology that makes use of facial recognition. When Conan learns from Subaru Okiya that a Europol member has been assassinated in Germany, he sneaks into the Pacific Buoy and discovers that an engineer with an important USB has been kidnapped by the Black Organization. Meanwhile, a dark shadow is creeping up on Ai Haibara.

Yuzuru Tachikawa (Detective Conan: Zero the Enforcer, Mob Psycho 100 Season 3 chief director) is the director of the film with Takeharu Sakurai (Detective Conan: The Crimson Bullet) as scriptwriter and Yuugo Kanno (Detective Conan: The Bride of Halloween) as music composer. TMS Entertainment is the animation production company.

Detective Conan: Kurogane no Submarine is the 26th movie in the anime franchise, which began in 1996 with a still-airing TV series. The Shogakukan-published manga by Gosho Aoyama, titled in English as Detective Conan by Shogakukan Asia and Case Closed by Viz Media, began serialization in 1994 and has 102 tankoubon volumes as of September 2022. It is serialized in Weekly Shonen Sunday.
