Posting Madness
Today I was watching Detective Conan (not Case Closed, which is not so bad now that I'm getting used to it) and I can't tell you how gleeful I got watching all the brilliant geniuses at work outsmarting and outplotting each other. I meditated for a while on why any "phantom thief" is more or less automatically cool, as the Kaitou Kid worked his magic and I was duly impressed. The Kaitou Kid is at least as cool as Dark Mousy, if not cooler.
And I was nearly bouncing when Heiji and Conan kept coming up on top of him at every turn, the rapidfire hint-realization-clue-decision-action-justasecondbehind of it all, the detective legends always a liiiittle bit too late for the master magician-cum-thief. I guess there's something about motivated geniuses.
Bailey, why can't you be motivated?
To be fair, I think that you also need to have charm. The Kaitou Kid is just slick when he encounters unexpected opposition. (I almost swooned when he was so charmingly flirtatious with the eight-year-old girl who found him hiding out on her balcony; I can totally understand why she idolized him.) I also think I really need to stop posting...
(Randomly: Toby is going to be the best grandfather who ever terrorized grandkids. XD )
