In the labyrinth of suspenseful mystery anime, each step can be an abyss or a ladder to the truth. With their intricate plots, shocking reversals, and rigorous logic, these works have attracted countless viewers to explore deeply, trying to cut through the fog to find answers. This article selects 10 anime that are unique in the field of suspense and reasoning, which are not only brain-burning, but also show the brilliance and darkness of human nature in repeated reasoning. Let's follow these gripping stories and challenge your thinking to the limits of what you can do in this intellectual contest.
no.10: "Ice Fruit".
The work explores the subject matter in a superficial way, and the story is written from the perspective of Oriki Buntaro, which on the surface seems to focus on the emotions and motivations of the characters, but in fact it is difficult to dig into the complexity of each character. Mayaka, Satoshi, and Origi, whose stories seem to try to touch on the everyday life of ordinary people, seem bland due to their lack of depth. Although it is dubbed the "energy-saving detective", Origi's character does not add much to the plot, and on the whole, although this work has a certain charm, it can hardly be called a masterpiece.
no.9: "Animal Rhapsody".
I thought it would be a work full of suspense and bloody elements, but it unexpectedly showed an innocent campus love story. Despite the novelty of the animal characters, the overall narrative – the frequent use of narration to portray the characters' hearts – is out of place in the absence of a compelling storyline.
no.8: "Sheriff Black Cat".
Looking back at the once popular animation "Sheriff Black Cat", its plot seems scattered. Although the picture production of that time still seems to be of a certain level today, compared with modern animation, its story content and expression are obviously backward, which makes people worry about the viewing experience and aesthetic standards of contemporary children.
no.7: "Madoka Magical Girl".
Kewpie's lines, while ornate, often feel hollow and lacking substance. Although the plot tries to break the routine in the last few episodes, the so-called innovation is just a repackaging of the old story mode, and it fails to really break through the transformation mechanism of "magical girl-witch". Overall, although the work tries to convey profound themes, the actual effect is not satisfactory.
no.6: Sherlock Holmes in the 22nd Century
Although the work is quite creative in its setting, trying to integrate the classic Sherlock Holmes story into the future setting, it seems to be unable to actually execute it. Although the character setting and plot adaptation strive to combine the essence of the original book and future elements, the complex story line may be difficult for young audiences to understand and accept. In addition, although the technical attempt deserves a certain recognition, the expression is still crude.
no.5: "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny".
Although "The Gate of the Stone of Destiny" has worked hard to create a tense plot atmosphere since the eighth episode, and has also taken great care to connect with the plot, on the whole, the work has not been able to bring too many surprises to the audience when showing the theme of traversal. The first half, while not boring, is also not attractive enough; Although the second half has improved, it has not fully reached the expected height.
no.4: "The Promised Neverland".
While the name is dreamy, the actual content is far from that. With its unique Japanese dark style and disturbing plot setting, this work presents a brutal world. Although the play tries to show the "trial of fate" through the perspective of children, the overly idealistic setting and simplified worldview are unconvincing and difficult to resonate.
no.3: "Kanedaichi Juvenile Incident Book".
The Book of Incidents of the Boys of Kaneda has won the love of the audience with its complex cases and rich character stories, and behind each case there are not only suspenseful elements, but also deep humanity**. Although the villains in the story resonate with the audience, they also expose the dark side of society and are thought-provoking.
no.2: "Detective Horn".
This work was unique for its time, presenting a detective story in a light-hearted and childlike way, with characters and plots endowed with a unique charm. Each character's story is told concisely and to the point, and even the villain's actions can be empathetic. This narrative from the perspective of children adds a new color to the detective genre.
no.1: "Detective Conan".
Detective Conan, while tiring some long-time viewers with its repetitive plot pattern, is still a fascinating work. Especially those cases that are not related to the main story, they not only show the customs of Japan, but also provide the audience with a unique movie-watching experience. Although the plot sometimes seems to be **, Conan's story still has the ability to keep viewers coming back again and again.
