I just have one question
what pops into your head when you hear THIS track?
[link]
and with all due respect to Kid when I hear "Magic Trick" I think of the one done by The Joker on Dark Knight

mmm, i dont recall all the cases (ive read all 750 chapters, thx)
cant recall what case you're on about. i for the most part dislike dubs. they loose something in translation. i dont speak japanese, and i really dont try to (horrible at languages, 18 years and im still trying to figure out english honsetly). ill usually stick with the japanese names (or original names), unless there is no possible way i could pronounce/spell them. (like in Yugioh, ill call Katsuya Jounochi, Joey Wheeler most of the time for ease of speaking, but ill call everyone else by their japanese versions) then again, there are times when im fiddling around and ill slip up. or im just fartin around.
but i have a hard enough time with names as it is, so i really just choose one and stick with it to avoid confusing myself. but each to their own, i guess.

for me Billionare Birthday Blues sticks in my mind because of how the killing took place. (I'mokay with Higurashi and Elfen Lied but that killing sticks in m y mind...in fact Elfen Lied's my alltime fave anime)
personally with the only exception being extreme situations (IE a 4shame dub or if there is no dub which is the case for Higurashi Kai and Rei) I prefer dubs as for me (I dont think I'm alone on this though) looking to the subtitles makes me miss some of the physical action and looking at the physical actionmakes me miss some of the subtitles which for me creates a problem of me missing large sections of the story (Not to mention giving me eye strain from looking back and forth really fast over an extended period of time)... one time while watching subbed anime my vision actually started to go blurry because of it and I had to stop.
I guess my name thing on Case Closed/Detective Conan is because I used to be part of a RP site for it where everyone was refered to as their Japanese names (which was confusing for me because at the time I didnt know who was who) but someone was kind enoughto give me a chart that had was
English Name/Japanese name
and I was able to work from there... it kinda got embarassing asking "who's Ran Mouri?" or "Who's Shinichi Kudo?" but ever since I was on that site I use both sets of names)

Im good with subs, because im a terribly fast reader, to the point where i dont even look between the two conciously. i can pick up on the words from the actions (as well as some of the more commonly used japanese phrases that ive come to recognise but hehe) and using perifial vision.but everyone is different, i know several people who cant read subtitles because their reading speed is too slow.
i started on the japanese names, so those were the ones that i memorised. i was very confused when the dubed version started going on about a racheal.
i only usually RP with one person, and we;re both Japanese-name oriented. and yes, 4KIDS dubs make small children cry, except not, because they cant tell that the dubbing is so terrible. (i actually used to love the YGO dub they had on there but hey i was 7)
Id say my FAVE case was... the showdown between the org and the CIA (the one where gin is shot through the scope and has his cheek grazed by a bullet).... or maybe i just like GIN..... hmmmmmm......
as for fav anime altogether, definately Magic Kaitou, though. KID~!!!!!!!!

I was grinning the entire time - then I got to the magic trick and I smacked my head on my desk in my enthusiastic attempt to muffle my laughter <3
Gods I love you. Best magic trick EVER
