The preview for the episode titled "The Magician of the Waves, Part One" also teases some new and familiar faces who will play a part in the eventual resolution of the upcoming mystery.

On the other hand, an interview conducted by Manga Tokyo with the anime and movie series producer Michihiko Suwa reveals that in order to keep the focus on the mystery in each episode, they take care to follow such rules as using the term "body" as opposed to "corpse," and making the blood look black instead of red.

They also refrain from depicting any form of violence on the screen, if it's not at all necessary to advance the mystery-solving narrative of each episode.

"We avoid showing scenes of a knife stabbing somebody or a bullet hitting victims, as long as they aren't related to the tricks of a mystery," Suwa said, further adding that since the series airs in the evening in Japan, they do not want to end up offending anyone who may be having their dinner while watching the television, especially those who may not be fans of anime.

"Detective Conan" airs on Saturdays at 6 p.m. JST on Yomiuri TV. Episodes are also available for selected regions outside Japan via Crunchyroll.
