(#名探偵コナン) What is the story behind this trend in Social Media today?
25-09-2026
The hashtag is trending because the long-running anime is marking its 30th anniversary with a rare two-hour television special airing tonight on Friday Roadshow. Titled “30号殺人事件,” the original story centers on a murder tied to counterfeit versions of Japan’s newly issued 10,000-yen notes, drawing in an unusually large ensemble of detectives and police from multiple prefectures plus familiar figures such as Conan, Heiji, Amuro and Akai. It is the first two-hour special in a decade and is being treated as a major event, complete with a new theme song by Mai Kuraki, optional commentary from the main voice cast and director, and promotional videos that gathered many of the series’ recurring characters. The broadcast is also serving as a lead-in to a three-week adaptation of the popular Osaka-set manga arc “茜色の千秋楽” that begins the following evening, so fans are watching both the new mystery and the romantic developments between Heiji and Kazuha. Real-time reactions during the airingcomments on character appearances, police-team crossovers, and Heiji–Kazuha momentsare what is driving the hashtag’s surge today.
