In the interest of making the interview notes easily searchable here is a summary of the answers. Translation credit goes to Alaktorn, The Black Demon, and the other translators at DCTP. For exact translations see the other posts in this thread. Plot and Black Organization When/how/did the boss of the Black Organization appear?Sources 1,6,7, report Gosho said the boss has appeared in some form a "long time ago", but Gosho may have implied the boss could have appeared "recently". Contrast with Source 5 who does not report the part of the answer that the boss has appeared recently.  Q: Has the boss appeared?  A: He has. Long ago, recently, I wonder when?/I wonder if he appeared long ago or recently (laughs))The different sources extracted different meanings from this statement. One of the sources (which one?) thought Gosho was taunting, so the phrase may be misunderstood. Source 5 notes Gosho was being vague about what form the boss appeared in. (Current manga chapter is 883)It is mentioned again the boss is not Agasa. (Source 1,6,7)Gosho declined to answer a question if the boss's face has appeared (Source 1,7)Akemi has nothing to do with the rivalry between Akai Shuuichi and Amuro Tohru. (Source 1,2,5,6,7)The two people who followed Yukiko and the Detective Boys and took pictures of Haibara in the prescreening case in the Vermouth arc (episode 335-336) were subordinates of Akai's. Gosho said you can ignore them. (Source 1,2,6,7) Gosho declined to answer if Amuro's name is an alias. Amuro does have a childhood nickname that will appear. (Source 1,2,5,6,7)Amuro's dark skin color has a meaning (Source 2,5,6,7) Gosho declined to say whether Amuro's hair and skin color is natural,(Source 1,5,6) but mentioned his current hair color is supposed to be brown, not white. (Source 6)Amuroâs "profile" is a secret. (Source 6,7)Gosho gave a non-answer about Amuro's weaknesses: "I also havenât decided on any weaknesses or dislikes. I mean, you wouldnât like it if I said that he dislikes nattĹ, right? (laughs)â (Source 2,5,6,7)Gin's weakness is Akai (Source 1,2,4,6)Gin is the type who doesn't have favorite or disliked foods. (Sources 5,6,7) (Q: What are Ginâs weaknesses/dislikes? A: I think he doesnât have any likes/dislikes. I think he can relatively eat whatever.) (Source 6)Gosho declined to answer about the completeness of APTX antidote (Source 1,2,6,7).Gosho declined to answer about the bloody disk of APTX data Haibara had from the Haido City Hotel seen later in Desperate Revival. (Source 1,2,6)Movie 18 will have some sort of appearance by Akai. (Source 1,2,6,7 More info given in sources 6 and 7)   GĹshĹ: This yearâs movie is Akai.   Q: Does he have a central part?   A: I donât know how much of a part âcentralâ is, but I think it will make you go âOh!â âItâs happening before the mangaâ-kind of like.   I also drew Akaiâs key frames.Akai Shuuichi's story in the manga will be dealt with AFTER the movie, not before. (Source 2)âItâs gonna happen in the movie before the mangaâŚâ (Source 7) [The subject of "it" is unclear. It might refer to Akai's appearance.]Gosho cannot say more about the topic because it would make the director mad. (Source 1,6,7+others)Gosho declined to answer about future overseas cases. (Source 1,6)When the possibility of having a case in America related to Sera was asked about in the same question, Gosho regarded the question as a dangerous and declined to go there. (Source 1,2,6,7)Q: There have been cases abroad so far, but will the story of when Sera lived in America appear?A: Oh! You just asked something dangerous. Was that on purpose? (laughs)Sera was the hardest character story to design (Source 1,5,6,7) of the recent new characters (Sera, Amuro, Naeko, Haneda mentioned by question). The Akai siblings have three different last names (Source 1,2,7) which makes it complex (Source 6). Sera's appearance was also difficult to design. (Source 6) Gosho designed her as a tomboy (Source 1,6) because he likes her that way (Source 1), and she has to standout/be different from Ran and Haibara. Why does the Black Organization wear black? (Source 1) Question not answered by source.The policeYumi and Sato have been good friends since high school. (Source 1,2,6,7) But Gosho has no plans of making them classmates. (Source 6,7)There will be a major case/incident involving Naeko Miike. (Source 1,2,6,7)Q: What about Naekoâs and Chibaâs love comedy?A: These two will appear in a BIG case.Q: Will Chiba notice Naeko soon enough?A: He really doesnât notice huh? I also think âIs this guy stupid?!â (laughs) What is Chibaâs first name? (Source 1) Question not answered by source"It seems like Isshin Chiba (Chibaâs voice actor) really likes Naeko. I was told at the year-end party." (Source 6,7) A spinoff for Matsuda and Hagiwara not planned (Source 1,2,6) The editors like them though (Source 1,6). "(Since Matsuda was enrolled in the Division 1 for only 7 days) the editing department told me âPlease write a story called âThe seven days of Matsudaâ or something like thatâ, but I have no plans of doing so. Matsuda and Hagiwara are just that story. (tn: as in, âthe story so farâ I guess)" Why did Takagi become a policeman? (Source 1) - Question not answered by source Haneda Shuukichi will make another appearance (Source 2,6,7) and it will be at a murder during a Shogi tournament (Source 6,7) Teenage ProtagonistsSomeone asked about relative bust sizes. Gosho said Kazuha's breasts are smaller than Ran's. (Source 1,2,4,6,7) Sato's are bigger than Yumi's (Source 1,6), but Sato's don't look so big because she is quite muscular (Source 6), but Shiho is flat right now [because she is a child]. (Source 6). Gosho considers Ran as one of the biggest in terms of bust size. (Source 7)Gosho wanted to have a karate case where Ran's opponent died but then decided not to. "Iâve thought of writing a story about one of Ranâs karate opponents dying in the middle of a match, but afterall that would be pretty bad so I stopped." (Source 1,6,7)The correct color for Ai Haibara's hair is reddish brown, not the golden color it is in the movies. (Sources 1,6,7)Heiji''s line "my Kazuha" was pretty much a confession. (Source 6,7)Hattori's birthday is not decided (Source 1,2,6,7)Kazuha birthday is not decided (Source 6,7) Other  The Ai and Fujiko bath scene in the Lupin vs Conan crossover movie left an impression on Gosho (Source 1,6, not answered in source 1) Gosho's sleep schedule: "When I was young I used to sleep for about 3 hours, but now I sleep 3 hours at night and then take an afternoon nap of about 30â60 minutes." (Source 6,7)Gosho draws the culprit first (Source 1,6,7) "When drawing a story, I start from the criminal. Then, if for example the criminal is (tn: a particular way I donât understand), I draw the other characters not that way." Gosho goes back and forth with editors when trying to decide criminal motive. (Source 2,6,7)There was something about making Tottori airport into a Conan themed airport and Conan on the side of a plane. (Source 6,7) (Within Conan?) What kind of sports do you want to write? (Source 1) Question not answered by source Gosho's favorite outfit for Conan is the Jacket with the K. (Source 1)
