However, nothing could have prepared Finn for the nightmare that was awaiting him. Once there, Finn encountered a car chase and bloody shootout caused by a man’s “lucky” card.
 
Finn will eventually learn what the shootout was about. The world order can be controlled by a set of 52 X-Playing cards with the power to bestow different superhuman powers and abilities to the ones that possess them. With these cards, people can access the hidden power of the “buddy” that can be found within themselves.
 
There is a secret group of players called High Card, who have been directly ordered by the king of Fourland to collect the cards that have been scattered throughout the kingdom, while moonlighting as employees of the long-established car maker Pinochle. Scouted to become the group’s fifth member, Finn soon joins the players on a dangerous mission to find these cards.
 
“All you need in life are manners, dignity, and the will to bet on your own life.”
 
However, Who’s Who, the rival car maker obsessed with defeating Pinochle, and the Klondikes, the infamous Mafia family, stand in the way of the gang.
 
A frenzied battle amongst these card obsessed players, fueled by justice, desire, and revenge, is about to begin!
 
Are you ready?

Published

on

The highly anticipated Case Closed: The Scarlet Bullet movie has made its way to digital platforms, delighting fans of the long-running Detective Conan series. After successful premieres, both in English Dub and English Sub, at the Anime NYC convention, TMS Entertainment has brought the 24th installment to the screens of fans worldwide.

The Plot of Case Closed: The Scarlet Bullet:
Case Closed: The Scarlet Bullet takes place during the prestigious World Sports Games (WSG) held in Tokyo every four years. The event garners significant media attention, particularly due to the introduction of the Hyper Linear train that can reach an astounding speed of 1,000 km/h. However, a series of mysterious incidents unfold as top executives of WSG’s sponsor companies are kidnapped and then inexplicably released. Similar occurrences were observed during the WSG inauguration in the United States 15 years ago, leaving everyone puzzled.


In continuation of its promotions, TMS Entertainment will also hold a screening of Case Closed: The Blue Sapphire, the 23rd film in the Case Closed franchise, at this year’s Anime Frontier on December 9 from 6:45 PM. The screening will mark Detective Conan’s first appearance at the Leftfield Media-run Fort Worth-based convention and will feature a trivia contest and prize giveaway after the screening.  

Conan, the brilliant young detective, discovers that Alan McKenzie, the former chief of the FBI and current head of the WSG committee, is scheduled to be on the inaugural run of the bullet train. Determined to uncover the truth, Conan, along with Shuichi Akai, takes action. Meanwhile, Akai’s sister Masumi Sera and his mother Mary are also investigating the same case and have boarded the train. As the story unfolds, the train journey becomes even more intriguing, with Akai’s younger brother, Shukichi Haneda, a professional Shogi player, coincidentally visiting Nagoya, where the train is set to begin its run.

Promotional Activities and Future Screenings:
To further promote the Detective Conan franchise, TMS Entertainment will be hosting a screening of Case Closed: The Blue Sapphire, the 23rd film in the series, at this year’s Anime Frontier convention. This screening, scheduled for December 9, will mark Detective Conan’s first appearance at the Fort Worth-based event and promises an exciting trivia contest and prize giveaways.

In addition to The Scarlet Bullet, fans can also look forward to Case Closed: The Fist of Blue Sapphire. The 23rd film in the franchise, it revolves around a lost sapphire and a series of events that unfold in Singapore. When a local billionaire announces plans to retrieve the legendary “Fist of Blue Sapphire,” a murder occurs, and Kid the Phantom Thief becomes entangled in the mystery. Conan, without a passport, finds himself in Singapore against his will, forced to assist Kid in his plan. As they face dangerous challenges, a foreboding sign emerges when Singapore’s iconic Merlion monument spews scarlet red water, hinting at impending danger for Conan and Kid.
