The town is littered with monuments paying tribute to the manga/anime. Hokuei is the birth place of the author of Detective Conan, Gosho Aoyama. (Read: Tottori Travel Guide.) But as a big fan of this animated little boy in a suit and bowtie, our time in CONAN TOWN was surely the highlight of our trip.ĬONAN TOWN is actually Hokuei, a small coastal town in Tottori Prefecture.

It turned out that Tottori is hiding a world of surprises that appeal to those who enjoy culture, nature, and adventure. In a world obsessed with giant metropolitan hubs, it’s easy to overlook something as obscure and out-of-the-way as Tottori. Tottori Prefecture isn’t a popular destination for tourists, even domestically. Detective Conan follows Shinichi who, as Conan, starts secretly solving the senior Mouri's cases from behind the scenes with his still exceptional sleuthing skills, while covertly investigating the organization responsible for his current state, hoping to reverse the drug's effects someday.But truth be told, when the tourism office of Tottori invited us to come visit, we didn’t know anything about the prefecture other than being the hometown of Detective Conan. To this end, he takes on the alias of Conan Edogawa, inspired by the mystery writers Arthur Conan Doyle and Ranpo Edogawa. Perfectly preserving his original intelligence, he hides his real identity from everyone, including his childhood friend Ran Mouri and her father, private detective Kogorou Mouri.

However, to his own astonishment, Shinichi lives to see another day, but now in the body of a seven-year-old child. Unfortunately, he is caught in the act, so the men dose him with an experimental drug formulated by their criminal organization, leaving him to his death. One day, when Shinichi spots two suspicious men and decides to follow them, he inadvertently becomes witness to a disturbing illegal activity. Shinichi Kudou, a high school student of astounding talent in detective work, is well known for having solved several challenging cases.
