Recently, affected by the epidemic, the "Detective Conan Theater Edition: Crimson Projectile", which was originally scheduled to be released on April 17, had to be postponed, which is somewhat regrettable for the majority of fans who love Conan. Although the release of the film has been postponed, the theme song of the work, "Forever No Explanation (Forever Absent Proof)", has long been announced. The combination of suspenseful and changeable melodies and allegorical lyrics makes this song bound to become another masterpiece in the "Detective Conan" series of songs.
From 1997 to the present, "Detective Conan Theater Edition" has accompanied us through 24 spring and autumn seasons, and has long become synonymous with "high box office" and "national level". The 24 works have also given birth to 24 theme songs, and their lineup is luxurious and complete in style, which can be combined into a fine song list that is not tired of listening, and even called "the reference guide of Japanese pop music" by some people. So what is the charm of the theme song of "Conan Theater Edition"? Let's take a look at the detailed strategy of these 24 theatrical theme songs
As the first theatrical version, the time of the crime of "Timing Detonation Skyscraper" corresponds to Xinyi's birthday, so this "Happy Birthday" can be regarded as Xiaolan's birthday wish to Xinyi. Singer Apricot has been well known since the 1980s, known for her deep and thick voice, and is still active in the Japanese music scene, where she has contributed to popular animations such as "No Ji Bo Pu No Laugh". The song has a bright rhythm, a free atmosphere, and a sincere affection between the lines. This handsome and heart-warming confession is enough to make the audience reminisce endlessly today.
"Maiden の顷に戻ったみたいに" is Chinese translated as "As If Back to Girlhood", which is a lyrical slow song full of deep feelings. Since its inception in 1990, singer ZARD has not only occupied the top of the public trust chart for a long time, but also released albums that have frequently received millions of sales, which is a classic group that can represent the popular music trend of that year. Lead singer Sakai Izumi has contributed to "Detective Conan" many times, and his control of love songs can be described as the pinnacle. This song expresses Xiaolan's incomparable thoughts and confessions about Xinyi, and the soothing melody makes the audience linger.
As kidd's first theatrical version, the theme song called "ONE" also explains his inner world in a sense. Singer B'z is a two-person rock boy band that has been popular throughout Japan since the 1990s, with a cumulative sales of 80 million that other singers can only look up to, and after 30 years, they are still standing proudly. B'z also has a deep relationship with Detective Conan, and has sung 5 theme songs for his theatrical version. This song uses the most rock and roll way, singing the most profound entanglement, sonorous without losing the gentle and continuous emotion, which is worth savoring.
When it comes to "Detective Conan", Kuraki Mai, who has sung as many as 22 songs, must be on the list, and this "Always" can also bring us back to her original intention of meeting Conan. At that time, Kuraki Mai had just debuted, and had already won successive victories in the field of music, and became a new force in the Japanese music scene with a strong posture. The song is the third song sung by Mai Kuraki for "Detective Conan", and it is also the most commonly used ending song in his concert, the overall rhythm is relaxed and cheerful, conveying beautiful love, courage and hope to the audience
"Everlasting" is B'z's second theme song for Conan Theater Edition. The overall tone of the song is depressing and layered, combining a slightly heavy atmosphere with the courage to move forward, like the cry of Hiroki Sawada in the film, telling the lonely mood and endless thoughts of travelers.
"Time after time~Flower Dance Street で~" Chinese translated as "Again and Again ~ On the Street full of flowers ~", is one of the most popular songs in the "Detective Conan" series, and is regarded by many as "classics in the classics". The song takes the lyrical route of Kuraki Mai to the extreme, and interprets a confession story with a very ancient capital style and romantic atmosphere for us. The song perfectly blends classical style with modern melodies, and depicts the love between Heiji and Waharu under the cherry blossom tree, which contains a different kind of emotion and carries the romance of Kyoto.
"The Magician of Silverwing" marks the reappearance of Kidd the Strange Thief, this time bringing not hardcore rock, but a sweet female voice. Singer Ainari is a well-known lyric queen in the Japanese music scene, and is a member of the "Conan Kaohime" along with Komatsu, Mai Kuraki and others, and has sung many songs for "Detective Conan". This song is full of cheerful and optimistic atmosphere, depicting a beautiful scene of working together and chasing dreams together, which is very much in line with our standard understanding of Japanese love songs.
"夏を待つセイル(滑)のように" is translated Chinese as "Like a Sail Waiting for Summer", and singer ZARD has once again contributed to "Conan Theater Edition" after many years. This time the theme is "Blue Sea", Sakai Izumi combined his own life experience in the process of creation, hoping to bring more happiness and strength to the audience through the song. The relaxed melody and delicate expression make this song like a fresh sea breeze, infiltrating our hearts.
"ゆるぎないものひとつ" Chinese translated as "The Only Thing That Never Wavers", as the title suggests, is an inspirational song full of determination and conviction. B'z has always played its own rock features in the song, whether it is precise drum beats or excellent lyrics, showing the domineering style of a mature band.
"Seven つの海を渡る風のように" Chinese translated as "Wind Across the Seven Oceans", singers Ainari and Mie Yukisa are well-known singers who have sung several times for "Detective Conan", and this powerful combination undoubtedly pushes the theme song of "Conan Theater Edition" to a new height. Unlike the fresh sea breeze, the style of the song is more like a fierce wind, rolling the turbulent waves directly into the heart of the listener, laying a strong layer of rendering for the lyrical theme.
In 2009, coinciding with the 10th anniversary of her debut, Mai Kuraki released a solo album called PUZZLE/Revive, which included "PUZZLE" as the theme song of "Dark Tracker". In this song, Mai Kuraki breaks through the previous lyrical style, incorporating fresh elements such as electronic music, mixing, rap, etc., thus opening up a new musical route. Kuraki Mai hopes that this song can become a beam of light that breaks through the night sky and brings the power of hope to people who are confused in the city.
After ZARD, B'z, Mai Kuraki and others, another "Conan old friend" GARNET CROW finally joined the ranks of the theme song of "Conan Theater Edition". GARNET CROW is an established music group with a vocal lead singer, Yuri Nakamura, known for its rich and varied musical styles, and has sung for popular works such as Detective Conan and Magic Fight. This song "Over Drive" shows the unique vastness and inclusiveness of the sky, and also conveys the power of the dream of free flight. In the midst of that huge sky ship, everything that comes into view looks so wonderful.
As another rock expression of B'z, this song has a lot in common with the aforementioned "The Only Thing That Never Shakes". Not only is the overall style very inspirational, but the themes tried to convey are also similar, and the climactic part of "Don't Wanna lie, don't wanna lie" has become the finishing touch of the whole song.
With "15 Minutes of Silence" as the node, the theme song of "Conan Theater Edition" shifted from the traditional model to the new model we see today. If the traditional model adopts the rotation of "Being singers" such as B'z, Kuraki Mai, and Ai Neri, then the new model invites more popular singers from other companies to help with the theme song, realizing the transformation from "one-sided" to "a hundred flowers blooming". The addition of "newcomers" has also greatly broadened the style route of the theme song and continuously brought a refreshing experience to the audience. Below, we will continue to complete this theme song list:
Haruta* 11th Song: Biochnology
Singer B'z is a two-person rock boy band that has been popular throughout Japan since the 1990s, with a cumulative sales of 80 million that other singers can only look up to, and after 30 years, they are still standing proudly. B'z also has a deep relationship with Detective Conan, and has sung 5 theme songs for his theatrical version. This song uses the most rock and roll way, singing the most profound entanglement, sonorous without losing the gentle and continuous emotion, which is worth savoring.
Translated Chinese "Again", singer Kazuyoshi Saito is an all-round artist who combines singer and actor identity, known for his relaxed melody and lyrics, and the second male singer after B'z to sing for Conan Theater Edition. This song expresses a kind of open-minded emotion that is more excited and cheerful after overcoming difficulties, so that the audience can feel the pleasure and romance of being on the ship and tasting the breath of the sea.
Translated Chinese as "Searchlight of Love", "ラライト" is a fast song with a strong electric style. Singer Shibasaki Yuki is also an all-round artist spanning "amphibious", who has starred in popular film and television dramas such as "The Dedication of Suspect X" and "So-and-So's Wife", and his strength as a singer is also very strong. The song uses electronic instruments to create a rhythmic melody, and the singer's voice seems to be rendered with a layer of special effects, and the overall tone is gorgeous and novel, which can be said to be different from other theatrical theme songs.
オー!リバル" Chinese translated as "Oh! Old Enemy", the singer erotic graffiti and B'z are both double rock groups, and their performance in the field of animation is obvious to all, and he has sung theme songs for popular animations such as "Fullmetal Alchemist" and "Pokémon". This song expresses the "love-hate entanglement" between Conan and Kidd, and although they are called "old enemies", they have already formed a deep friendship with each other. The Combination of Latin-style melodies and clear vocal lines gives us a unique listening experience.
"World はあなたの色になる" Chinese translated as "The World Will Become Your Color", is both one of the opening tracks of the TV version of Detective Conan and the theme song of the theatrical version of "Pure Black Nightmare". B'z tries to show the little-known other side of Conan through this slow and low rock love song, portraying his deep inner struggle and tenderness, thus arousing more people's resonance.
"Watanabetsu Bridge ~ Jun Wanting ふ ~ " Chinese translation of "Tozuki Bridge ~ Miss You ~", Kuraki Mai once again interpreted the elegance and dreaminess of Kyoto with a nearly perfect lyrical interpretation, and promoted "Conan Theater Edition" to usher in a new peak of popularity. This song adds a lot of Japanese melody, so that the audience can more intuitively feel the rich ancient capital style. At the same time, Kuraki Mai combined the flower cards in the film with imagery such as "Tang Hong" to create lyrics with a very elegant sense and literary atmosphere. The fusion of classical and modern makes this song the best "endorsement song" to highlight the style of Kyoto.
As a powerful idol with both popularity and reputation, Masaharu Fukuyama combined the theme of "The Executioner of Zero" with his own feelings after watching the film to create this melodic and profound theme song. The song expresses their understanding and insistence on justice from the perspective of Toru Amuro and others, and Masaharu Fukuyama's masculine voice undoubtedly enhances the overall expressiveness of the song. The glamorous character meets the equally charismatic singer, a surprise that ignites the enthusiasm of the audience.
"BLUE SAPPHIRE" corresponds to the title of the film, "Fist of Cyanosis", and the singer Hiroson Noborisaka is the lead singer of the popular Japanese boy band J Soul Brothers from EXILE TRIBE, and is also a new generation of artists who have performed well. The magnetic sound and rhythm add a lot of fresh fashion to this song. In the process of listening to the song, the figure of the white-robed monster seemed to once again cross our eyes to steal the purest gems and hearts in the world.
"Forever の不証明" Chinese translated as "Forever Alibi", the singer Tokyo Incident was once a popular "dark horse" in the Japanese music scene, led by the ghost musician Naina Hayashi, the changeable musical style has been widely praised by the listeners, and this year is also the starting point for their comeback. Unlike any of the above theme songs, this song was actually written from the perspective of a prisoner, and the eerie tone gradually climaxed with the change of rhythm, showing us a new and different atmosphere.
The above is all the promotion of the 24 theme songs of "Conan Theater Edition", thank you for seeing the end ~ In fact, whether it is a traditional model or a new model, whether it is the "hardcore reasoning" that has been praised in the early stage, or the "action blockbuster" that has been criticized now, these theatrical versions constitute a feeling that is difficult to give up in our hearts. When we are busy, we calm down and click on the familiar melody, we may realize that the self who watches Conan in front of the TV has long since grown into an adult. Year after year, we will still meet in the theater to witness this eternal "famous detective" who looks like a child on the outside but is beyond ordinary people on the inside.
Finally, thank you to all the musicians who have dedicated their lives to the "Detective Conan" series, and welcome friends to share your favorite song in the comments section
