"One-Eyed Flashback" is set in the snowy mountains of Nagano Prefecture, and depicts the "sleeping memory" that connects two seemingly unrelated people, Kogoro, who is asleep, and Yamato Gansuke, a Nagano Prefectural Police officer. While Gansuke is chasing a "certain man" in the snowy mountains, a bullet grazes his left eye and he is caught in an avalanche. Ten months later, Gansuke miraculously survives and receives a report that a researcher at Nobeyama Observatory has been attacked by someone, and rushes to the scene, but as soon as the observatory's parabolic antenna starts moving, his one-eyed left eye suddenly begins to tingle. Kogoro and Conan have arranged to meet a former colleague from the Metropolitan Police Department who is investigating the avalanche accident, and on their way to the meeting place, a gunshot rings out.
"Detective Conan" is a manga that depicts Conan Edogawa solving difficult cases one after another, and began serialization in "Weekly Shonen Sunday" (Shogakukan) in 1994. The comics have sold over 270 million copies in total. The TV anime has been broadcast since 1996, and the first movie, "Detective Conan: The Time-Bombed Skyscraper," was released in 1997. The 27th movie, "Detective Conan: One million dollar guidepost," released in 2024, also became a hot topic as it recorded the highest box office revenue in the series' history of over 15.8 billion yen.
