Yeahhh this song is really nice x3 Catchy and sweet~ As usual, no copyright infringements intended. All rights belong to NH media, Brave Sound, U-KISS. I know that Shen030 and keudae (both of them are awesome) have already posted the chords for this song, but I have a different interpretation of some of the parts. So try out all 3 versions and suit yourself :D
Capo 1 | Standard tuning:
F G C G* G* F#
F G* G# G*
*-- Asterix because, it'll be easier to play it differently from the normal G, because, you can easily shift between F, F#, G, G# chord. Just play the F chord while shifting the your hand up by 1 or 2 fret each time!
F G F# G#
E---1---|---3---|---2---|---4---|
B---1---|---3---|---2---|---4---|
G---2---|---4---|---3---|---5---|
D---3---|---5---|---4---|---6---|
A---x---|---x---|---x---|--- x---|
E---x---|---x---|---x---|--- x---|
So the finger shape for ALL these chords are actually same/similar. Easier to play, you just have to make sure you're on the right fret, that's all. :D
A capo on fret 1 will be most suitable for this song. ^_^

Hello!! ^_^ This is the link to their official mv http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dN_fJIKO8g , and here's the chords for the amazing song XD Please comment and request for any other guitar tabs, also follow me on google+ or hit the 'g +1' button on the right --->

It's the same throughout the song ^^ Other than the slight change for the bridge shown below (the chords above work too, but a slightly different chord progression may make it sound more similar to the original)
I would prefer doing the capo 1st fret chords, since they are much simpler ^^

So, to the review~~~
LUNAFLY is back with their new single, with a pleasant surprise for Tunisian Lukies. The song is titled 여우야 (Yeowooya), which also means You Fox. I hear rumours that Lunafly had composed the song on their own, or at least were directly involved in song composition. Either way, this song, like all the other songs they have released, is too amazing for words. I think that all Lukies anticipation had not been gone to waste, don't you? ;)
The Song:
The song is oddly catchy, simple and easy to sing, and has a total summer feel to it. I feel that the chorus is especially commendable: rather than just having plain old harmonies, there are actually 2 beautiful melodies weaved together, with Yun holding long notes beautifully, and Teo & Sam supporting it with fitting lyrics in a nice melody.
The MV:
Some have complained about the low-budget mvs Lunafly have had, in which the most interesting they do is smile, look cool, and walk along the streets. However, I feel that this style suits them most. Being an acoustic band, they aren't able to dance like idol groups (surprise me Lunafly ^o^). One of the lukies said this " at least it's better than having them cooped up in a box", which I agree to totally. Seeing the boys out in the open, in touch with such nice scenaries, may be what attracts the fans the most. (Beside their amazing musical ability, of course) In fact, if I may quote from another lukie again, "I love how Lunafly makes an attempt at being international through the mvs". Yes, Tunisian fans are really excited by the mv, and I'm very heartened to see that too.
Hopefully Lunafly will come out with another single or album soon, with an even better song, that could be their breakthrough in the competitive kpop industry. All the best, LUNAFLY, Sam, Teo, Yun!! <3

Kpop guitar chords + review-- EXO | Peter Pan (XOXO 1st album)
I know many people are looking for guitar/ piano chords for the song, so I'll do chords before reviewing! Please comment and request for any other songs! :D
Without capo ¦ standard tuning:
D# Cm G# Fm A#
With capo 1 ¦ standard tuning:
D Bm G Em Am
Take note that the last two chords are played faster...
I know I haven't done any blog posts on song chords, but I'm trying to explore the areas in which my blog can cover, so I hope more people can come across my blog for their own reference.
I'm not a big fan of exo, but when I first heard their energetic 'howling' & comical 'saranghayeo' in their new song 'Wolf', instead of getting annoyed at those silly sounds ruining a decent melody, I was very amused and felt that the song and mv was quite nicely done. I won't go into the details of reviewing the album just yet, but I'll review this song, Peter Pan, that I'm so glad I had stumbled upon.
Firstly, the title of the song is very interesting. As you may see from my previous blogposts, I'm a huge U-kiss fan and although their song Neverland is one of my all-time favorites, I was still puzzled as to why this fairy land's name was used for such a dark solemn song. Yet Peter Pan, totally suits the sweet fairy tale impression that 'peterpan' and 'Neverland' give. It would have been most suitable if Peter Pan had gone under U-kiss' Neverland album xD (exotics please don't bash me Peter Pan is a great song that EXO has perfectly pulled off)
I loved the style of this song. I know I'm one of those fan girls who love boyish cute happy songs that are so sweet that they seem deadly to others, but seriously, it is a fantastic song. I loved the guitar plucking at the background, overwhelmed by the amazing harmonies by the boys. They totally fit the simple yet catchy melody of the song.
Of course, the song captured me (and many others) with the familiar English words (or rather, names from peterpan) like Neverland, tinkerbell (if I didn't hear it wrongly) and Wendy.
As a fluent Chinese speaker myself, I looked up the Chinese lyrics of the mandarin version sang by exo-m. Although I can't say that their pronunciation was understandable, I must say they had very good, meaningful lyrics, successfully integrating the idea of Peterpan the movie. It surprised me that such a childhood fairy tale story could be used in a love song. (okay maybe not much of a surprise but I was delighted? Maybe..)
Yeap, and that's how I got to love this song, and I read that many others think this song as their favorite of the entire album. Cheers to all those out there!!
If you made it till the end of this post, good for you because yes, I do know that I'm rambling unnecessarily. I'll cut down my rambling as much as possible... :'(
Support EXO! They are one fantastic band...

Kpop Album Review-- U-KISS | uBEAT (1st mini album)
Hey fellow Kissmes! Since uBEAT's songs came out 10 hours ago, I have been putting the tracks on playlist mode XD It's too good for words. Ironically, I'll be writing a review of this album, and I hope to hear your comments on the album too... :)
First of all, if you haven't seen the teaser photos, go here and here.
If you are fine with soundcloud, go take a listen to the songs here.
Youtube Links to songs: full album
1. intro
2. should have treated you better (title song)
3. it's been a long time
4. standing still (remix)
5. can't breathe (remix)
6. party all the time (remix)
7. sweety girl (remix)
Teaser Pictures
When U-KISS first confirmed that their 1st unit group uBEAT is formed by Eli and AJ, featuring Kevin, I believe many kissmes were as excited as I was, since they are the English speakers of the group who receive more global attention, I assume. Since AJ & Eli are rappers, I thought they would have very rap-ish image, probably very manly or something similar to Big Bang's G-Dragon and Top's image. Well, I was glad it wasn't, as I didn't like the idea of U-kiss turning vulgar (like during the 'shut up' days) or too manly. The teaser photos certainly did not look like the image U-Kiss usually portrays. In fact, I felt that it was very western-like. Does anyone see its resemblance with One-Direction? I'm not sure about the rest, but it was very refreshing for me to see the fun side of my biases.
Hair-style: I was shocked at first, but I now think their new hairstyles are really cute. In the teaser photos, all of them had dyed their hair brown. AJ's hair is in a gradient of brown to blonde, with purple highlights on his bangs. Eli's hair is quite normal, with a slight tinge of blonde, while Kevin's are brown to golden, with a little green highlight. Their hairstyle are not as bombastic as some of their previous comebacks (Eli's hair red, Aj's shaved etc), and they are of very lovely colours... :)
As for the costume, they seem very... English. In the first few photos released, they either had bow ties or neck ties, which seems funny at first sight, but I'm getting used to it. They look good in those bright coloured suits and all kinds of outfits.
Well, what I didn't really like was AJ's white specs. They looked like lab goggles to me... XD
And AJ's shorts/bermudas.... He looks like a footballer jock now... not bad but... oh well... spoiled my image of him being a cool nerd, without specs.
And their necklaces.... seem too big for their necks..
Anyway, I love the white guitar placed beside Kevin. Proves his angelic side.. XD AJ and Eli look a little badass with those excessive rings, but I have no complains. But somehow their poses are a little.... weird? There's this photo with Eli sitting on AJ's thighs? I'm not sure... ehhem..
Oh, there's something I have to mention about their hairstyles. Somehow when they were in Singapore promoting their Collage album just 2 days ago, AJ and Kevin had blonde hair, with AJ's being slightly lighter? It was the first time seeing AJ's hair so light coloured... So this is to give a heads-up... He could be blonde...
Album Songs
Before I reveal anything, you must hear their songs if you haven't. Click this, and hear the remix versions of some songs in Collage too.
I am too belated for words after hearing the songs. They sound very cute and boyish~ I'm really glad they didn't produce some badboy-ish songs, and went for the upbeat, happier melody kind. It's really rare for rappers to do so, and I love it. It's unique.
Like what they said, the song 'should have treated you better' is really catchy, even thought the title's so long. It features Kevin's really sweet voice, and I'm sorry Kevin, but you really sound like a girl beside AJ and Eli's rap. It has a very happy tune despite the sadness of the lyrics, quite ironic, in a good way. The titled song tells the story of a guy who regrets not treating his girlfriend better, and he is reluctant to break up. Although the way Kevin sings it makes it sound very childish, like a teenager's love life, it really is quite light and playful. It lighten my moods since I heard it right after sitting for a terrible exam paper. I don't see the childishness as a bad thing. It's just very different from U-KISS' mainstream titled songs, which are usually sad, heavy and such.
I have one complain though. The album should be by Eli and AJ, only featuring Kevin. But why are the two songs produced sung by Kevin, almost all the way? I thought they would be rap songs with Eli and AJ's unique rapping styles, while Kevin would probably sing at most one verse? Or probably in the background. Yet it seems that I hear Kevin's voice throughout the songs... =.= Don't get me wrong, I love Kevin's voice and all, but I feel that AJ and Eli should own major parts of the song, at least the chorus. My concept of feats may be wrong, so feel free to comment and give an alternative view point to this. Once again, if I ignore the fact that it's a Eli & AJ album feat Kevin, the songs are really great.
My next point, which makes me doubt my hearing ability, is about their individual parts. As a singer myself, I like to identify voices of each singer and rapper. I am usually rather good, I must say, at identifying individual parts of groups that I have listened to for so long that I can sing most of their songs. Yet, in this album... I seem to hear unrecognisable voices... I can't even say that these voices could belong to other U-KISS members... because they don't. For example, in the intro, I don't think it's either of the rappers saying the first part that goes "3 boys from U-kiss, Kevin, Eli, AJ..." with the weird stray voices at the background going 'yeah' & wooh' and so on. It could be the Electroboyz. I try to think that it is AJ, but... I don't think so. It's too low for his norm. I'm not sure, so any comments?
Also, somehow I don't manage to hear AJ's voice anywhere... :'( He's my bias so I'm quite sad, but back to business. Really. Maybe in the title song he raps a bit here and there in the background during the chorus, but other than that, I can only hear Eli, if it even is him. Maybe the first rap part is AJ, but it doesn't sound very like him. I always identify him by the way he raps in a tune or maintaining the same key, and making it sound very nice and cool. Maybe I should wait till someone posts their individual parts before saying this.. but somehow I really do hear rappers that are not Eli & AJ in the 2 songs... which I am guessing is probably the Electroboyz. E.g. the nasal 'oh, oh, oh, oh' in the title songs that could possibly be Eli but I'm still not very sure. Also, there's this one verse where someone who's not Kevin is singing... It doesn't sound like AJ nor Eli to me... so I'm really doubting my hearing ability.
If I pretend those odd rapping voices belong to AJ and Eli, then I must say this: wow. I've never heard this style of rapping coming from them before, especially AJ. He has almost a totally different rapping style in this 2 songs, and I can't quite put my hands on what's different. So... good for you AJ.
Putting that aside, I reallllyyy love the beats of the song. It's actually rather slow, but they manage to keep the song lively throughout and its really not boring at all. The beats, which are actually what mainstream bands-with-drums use all the time, have been miraculously transformed into very pretty beats. It is, of course especially so when AJ beat-boxes it. Aha! I think you might not know about it. During their concert in Singapore, they gave a short teaser of the song, and while Kevin was singing 1 or 2 lines of the chorus, AJ enhanced Kevin's angelic voice with his powerful beat-boxing skills. In fact, I would love it if he had beat-boxed in the official song itself. If you wanna hear the short teaser, go here.
Going on to the remix. I loved them. The producers added beats and new chords and instruments to the songs, which may seem a little weird but in fact fits perfectly into the songs. The producers of course rearranged them, and I guarantee that if you are the kind of fan who had heard the collage album songs more than 5 times, you would love it. Otherwise, you might feel that the arrangement is all over the place, which in fact isn't, since it's a remix. :)
I must recommend the remix of their Collage title song-- Standing Still. The remix for this is more special, instead of adding beats, they removed all of them!!! You should really check it out, as it really sounds nice. The guitar is still in the background, and the plucking gives the very nice indirect beats, if I may say. It sound like an almost acapella version, which I totally love. Oh.. but one thing... somehow, even though this IS an Eli AJ album, the remix version removes their rap parts... so i'm still wondering whether it is done on purpose for good laugh or what... Hope they can explain it soon... >:( just kidding... :D
So. I'm loving this album, and I hope you are too. If anyone would care to do so, could I clarify whether there will be an mv for this album? I haven't heard any info of that sort, only that they'll debut on 25 April in Taiwan. Good for you, Taiwan kissmes. But I'm thinking that the mv is a yes, since I remember seeing Eli's tweet that they were filming the mv sometime on Tuesday or Wednesday.
Anyway, daebak U-KISS uBEAT!! I've had my hopes up, and I'm very happy with the album. Just can't wait for the mv (if there's one... I really wanna see it XD)
First of all, if you haven't seen the teaser photos, go here and here.

Yet it seems that I hear Kevin's voice throughout the songs... =.= Don't get me wrong, I love Kevin's voice and all, but I feel that AJ and Eli should own major parts of the song, at least the chorus. My concept of feats may be wrong, so feel free to comment and give an alternative view point to this. Once again, if I ignore the fact that it's a Eli & AJ album feat Kevin, the songs are really great.
My next point, which makes me doubt my hearing ability, is about their individual parts. As a singer myself, I like to identify voices of each singer and rapper. I am usually rather good, I must say, at identifying individual parts of groups that I have listened to for so long that I can sing most of their songs. Yet, in this album... I seem to hear unrecognisable voices... I can't even say that these voices could belong to other U-KISS members... because they don't. For example, in the intro, I don't think it's either of the rappers saying the first part that goes "3 boys from U-kiss, Kevin, Eli, AJ..." with the weird stray voices at the background going 'yeah' & wooh' and so on. It could be the Electroboyz. I try to think that it is AJ, but... I don't think so. It's too low for his norm. I'm not sure, so any comments?
Also, somehow I don't manage to hear AJ's voice anywhere... :'( He's my bias so I'm quite sad, but back to business. Really. Maybe in the title song he raps a bit here and there in the background during the chorus, but other than that, I can only hear Eli, if it even is him. Maybe the first rap part is AJ, but it doesn't sound very like him. I always identify him by the way he raps in a tune or maintaining the same key, and making it sound very nice and cool. Maybe I should wait till someone posts their individual parts before saying this.. but somehow I really do hear rappers that are not Eli & AJ in the 2 songs... which I am guessing is probably the Electroboyz. E.g. the nasal 'oh, oh, oh, oh' in the title songs that could possibly be Eli but I'm still not very sure. Also, there's this one verse where someone who's not Kevin is singing... It doesn't sound like AJ nor Eli to me... so I'm really doubting my hearing ability.
If I pretend those odd rapping voices belong to AJ and Eli, then I must say this: wow. I've never heard this style of rapping coming from them before, especially AJ. He has almost a totally different rapping style in this 2 songs, and I can't quite put my hands on what's different. So... good for you AJ.
Putting that aside, I reallllyyy love the beats of the song. It's actually rather slow, but they manage to keep the song lively throughout and its really not boring at all. The beats, which are actually what mainstream bands-with-drums use all the time, have been miraculously transformed into very pretty beats. It is, of course especially so when AJ beat-boxes it. Aha! I think you might not know about it. During their concert in Singapore, they gave a short teaser of the song, and while Kevin was singing 1 or 2 lines of the chorus, AJ enhanced Kevin's angelic voice with his powerful beat-boxing skills. In fact, I would love it if he had beat-boxed in the official song itself. If you wanna hear the short teaser, go here.
Going on to the remix. I loved them. The producers added beats and new chords and instruments to the songs, which may seem a little weird but in fact fits perfectly into the songs. The producers of course rearranged them, and I guarantee that if you are the kind of fan who had heard the collage album songs more than 5 times, you would love it. Otherwise, you might feel that the arrangement is all over the place, which in fact isn't, since it's a remix. :)
I must recommend the remix of their Collage title song-- Standing Still. The remix for this is more special, instead of adding beats, they removed all of them!!! You should really check it out, as it really sounds nice. The guitar is still in the background, and the plucking gives the very nice indirect beats, if I may say. It sound like an almost acapella version, which I totally love. Oh.. but one thing... somehow, even though this IS an Eli AJ album, the remix version removes their rap parts... so i'm still wondering whether it is done on purpose for good laugh or what... Hope they can explain it soon... >:( just kidding... :D
So. I'm loving this album, and I hope you are too. If anyone would care to do so, could I clarify whether there will be an mv for this album? I haven't heard any info of that sort, only that they'll debut on 25 April in Taiwan. Good for you, Taiwan kissmes. But I'm thinking that the mv is a yes, since I remember seeing Eli's tweet that they were filming the mv sometime on Tuesday or Wednesday.
Anyway, daebak U-KISS uBEAT!! I've had my hopes up, and I'm very happy with the album. Just can't wait for the mv (if there's one... I really wanna see it XD)

Manga Review-- Detective Conan (6th case: Your kid for My kid)
Chapter 26-29
I'm really sorry for the lousy title... couldn't think of one >.< 1st thing first: this case is a MUST READ!! Well if you're a new Detective Conan reader... It is the very 1st time Ran suspects that Conan is actually Shinichi. It is rather funny seeing how Ran tries to catch him off guard, but sad for Ran, technology wins... =.= When Conan was in a tight spot, Professor Agasa mimicked Shinichi's voice using the voice changer bowtie phoned her. Pretty sad for Ran, but Shinichi is doing it to protect her... How ironic... Haiz... Okay back to the point, this case is a rather cool one. Well at least the motive is more sensible than those with boy-girlfriend relationships. It is very common in real life. When one loses their loved ones to diseases, nothing can be done to change it. Yet some relatives to the patient may blame it on the doctor, causing a very sad turn of events...
Detectives involved: Edogawa Conan, Mouri Kogoro
People directly involved:
Ogawa (A surgeon who operated on culprit's son, failed operation)
Ogawa Yuuta (age 5 son of surgeon)
Ogino (fake sender name: Tanaka Touko)
Ogino Tomoya (late son of Ogino, died 3 years ago due to late stages of appendicitis)
Background: Ogawa looked for Kogoro for help. There was a mysterious sender (fake name Tanaka Touko) who sent toys money (1 million yen/month) to the client every month, morning glory bouquet every year, and a letter that very day. The gifts, money, and flowers had been sent for 2 years. The letter received that day read: The 25 million yen has been paid. I am coming to collect my side of the transaction. The address and name on the gifts were fake.
How Conan knew the client was a surgeon: He noticed diagonal scars on the tip of the clients index fingers. This was because during surgeries, surgeons had to hold thin little wires absolutely taut, thus creating the scars overtime.
Clues:
The things were sent from 2 years ago to now
The toys and 1 million yen were sent every month
The toys did not have bar codes and looked second-handed
The total money received was 25 million yen
The morning glory flowers were received once a year, on 3rd of August
Conan checked through the surgeon's patient records
Conan happen to stumble upon a game with name records. One of the player was named Ogino Tomoya (Conan later found the name in the patient record)
Patient Record of Tomoya: Died after undergoing surgery under Dr Ogawa, on 3rd of Aug, 3 year ago
Deduction & motive: The mysterious sender was Mr Ogino, father of the late Ogino Tomoya who died of appendicitis. He deluded himself into believing it was Dr Ogawa's fault for not performing a good surgery and saving his son. Thus, to take revenge, he constantly warned Dr Ogawa with the gifts, and the 25 million yen were Tomoya's life insurance. He wanted Dr Ogawa to feel the same way he did when his son died. He planned to take Yuuta's life 3 years after his son's death, when Yuuta turned 5.
Rest of the story: Mr Ogino bribed Yuuta with toys to follow him after school. When he was about to stab Yuuta, Conan managed to aim a football at him (with the help of his power enhancing shoes). The similarities of Yuuta's innocence to Tomoya's made Mr Ogino give up. The story ended rather nicely, since Dr Ogawa forgave Mr Ogino and did not report the incident to the police.
My thoughts: Despite the death of the kid (3 years ago), it's quite heartening to know that no one's hurt adn that things were resolved. :)

Manga Review-- Detective Conan (The Hatamoto family)
Chapter 20-25
There were 2 murders and an attempted murder within hours on a cruise ship, done by the same murderer, plus the complications were between the Hatamoto family itself. Well, at least the motives weren't for inheretance, which was quite a huge issue. Oh well, this is a very complicated and long case. Hopefully you'll be able to understand my 'explanation'. :)
Detective(s) involved: Edogawa Conan, Mouri Kogoro
People Involved:
Hatamoto Gouzou (head of family)
Hatamoto Takeshi (newly-wed husband of Natsue/Hatamoto employee),
Hatamoto Natsue (daughter of Gouzou's oldest son),
Hatamoto Kitarou (husband of Hatamoto Mariko/company VP),
Hatamoto Mariko (elder daughter of family),
Hatamoto Jouji (youngest son of Gouzou/chef),
Hatamoto Akie (Natsue's elder sister),
Hatamoto Tatsuo (Akie's husband),
Hatamoto Ichirou (son of Mariko),
Suzuki (family butler)
1st murder(Gouzou's death):
Victim: Hatamoto Gouzou (Badly wounded. Died of excessive blood loss)
Suspects: prime--Hatamoto Takeshi (exposed to be son of Zaiki Isao, rival of Hatamoto family); rest of Hatamoto family except Natsue (with Ran & others)
Possible murder weapon: knife
Murder scene: Gouzou's room
Clues: Takeshi's flower found at the door
Closed room murder
Body found 40-50 min after death
Only Gouzou and Suzuki have the keys to the room
Missing murder weapon
Some blood landed on door frame (door was open during murder)
Bread crumbs found in blood puddle, charcoal found on crumbs (bread made by Jouji, further clues in part 3)
Jouji always carries his kitchen knife with him
Conclusion (partial): Gouzou himself locked the door after being stabbed, but died of excessive blood loss. Culprit could be any of the suspects except Suzuki and Takeshi, who was preparing the meal at time of death. Also, some blood ought to have dripped outside the room, but it was wiped away. If it was Takeshi, he would have picked up the flower when cleaning the blood. It shows that the murderer was framing Takeshi (by dropping his flower at the door).
Result: Takeshi was locked in a storage room (can only be unlocked from the outside).
Intepreted 'motive': Take revenge against Gouzou for taking father's company (father suicided)
Intepreted 'evidence': Takeshi's flower found at the door (murder weapon not found)
2nd murder(Tatsuo's death):
Victim: Hatamoto Tatsuo (Died of brain damage caused by a blow on the head)
Suspects: Takeshi (prime suspect),
all except Natsue (with Ran & others)
Possible murder weapon: steel pipe
Murder scene: lower ship deck; Ran, Conan & Natsue on upper ship deck
Clues: Conan heard a sound like sth hitting the water, then a thudding sound
Takeshi escaped from the locked room (someone opened the door from the outside)
Result: Well, no conclusion. There weren't enough evidence to tell who was the culprit, and almost all of them seem to have a motive in killing Gouzou. There could be an indirect motive to kill Tatsuo, maybe because he saw the murder weapon or sth along the line. The thudding sound could be the culprit getting rid of previous murder weapon.
Attempted murder:
Victim: Ichirou (stabbed in the leg, shallow wound)
Suspects: missing Takeshi (poor guy... he's actually a good guy...>.<)
all others (time-switch made it possible)
Murder Weapon: Jouji's kitchen knife
Murder scene: Washroom
Clues: deliberate blackout (use of trap-springer: affix a weight to the breaker, make a fulcrum using a string tied around sth else, tie lighted candle in middle, when fire reached rope, rope is burnt and broken; the weight automatically pulls the breaker switch)
murder weapon was left at the scene (Jouji's kitchen knife)
Ichirou's testimonial-- someone coming out of a stall, then blackout (he said he couldn't see anything), then was stabbed
Clues from search in rooms (looking for Takeshi):
Gouzou strongly opposed Mariko & Kitarou's marriage (they were cousins)
Jouji's knife case had 2 missing knives instead of one
In Ichirou's room, his art set contained charcoal and bread (for drawing and erasing)
Deduction: Ichirou was the culprit for all the incidents.
In the 1st murder, the conclusion showed that Takeshi is ruled out from being the culprit, since it was obvious the flower was to frame him.
The 2nd murder did not seem like a plan murder. If the culprit for all 3 murders were the same, then it was obvious that the 2nd murder was not planned beforehand.
The 2 missing knives from Jouji's knife case shows that there is still one missing weapon. Thus it can be concluded that at the 2nd murder, the thud was Tatsuo being hit, the water 'splash' sound was probably the culprit getting rid of the murder weapon. Tatsuo probably saw the culprit holding the weapon, thus the culprit's motive to kill was to silence Tatsuo.
As for Takeshi's missing in action, the murderer probably opened the door after the 2nd murder, so that he could once again frame Takeshi as the murderer (since he 'escaped').
When Conan (using Kogoro's voice) made the deduction to this point, he called Takeshi out from his hiding place in that very room. He said he escaped when he heard Natsue's scream, but when he saw the others blaming Tatsuo's death on him, he ran away to hide, and coincidentally hid in the room where Conan made his deductions.
As for the last 'attempted murder', people were wondering who opened the door for Takeshi, thus Ichirou was also a suspect for being the 'accomplice' who opened the door. He frantically thought of injuring himself to shift the blame away from him. However, his 'testmonial' when being stabbed was contradictory. If it was pitch-black, how could the 'stabber' stab him rather accurately? Also, unlike the 1st two murders, the murder weapon wasn't taken away, but was found beside Ichirou. Since he couldn't walk (stabbed), of course he couldn't get rid of the weapon.
Prove: The bread crumbs found in the 1st murder was from Ichirou. He used it to erase his drawings. Since traces of charcoal were found on them, it further proves that they belonged to Ichirou. They probably fell inside Ichirou's sleeve when he was drawing.
Motive: Ichirou loved Natsue. He went to Gouzou for approval to marry Natsue, but Gouzou said 'you think I'll let you take my precious Natsue?!'. Gouzou later approved Natsue & Takeshi's marriage just to spite Ichirou. Ichirou was angry and couldn't forgive the spiteful Gouzou and Takeshi who 'stoled' Natsue from him.
My thoughts: I think it is a really sad motive... Gouzou sure was spiteful and mean, but no one have the right to shorten other's life. It's rather sad for Ichirou too... He couldn't get the person he loved and lost everything too... :'( But I'm glad Gouzou wasn't killed for inheritance... It's an even more saddening reason to kill... X(
Comment from a friend: I really do think that Conan has been in the same grade for way too long (18 years if want to be exact), so personally, I really do think that Aoyama should end this series soon. Yes, we will be sad to see this cute "boy" gone, but we will be really glad or even elated if we will be able to know if he managed to turn back into the teenager, permanently. I am just a bit sick and tired of this endless line of murder, solving murder, getting lead on black organisation, losing lead on black organisation, and back to murder, and solving murder, etc. Come on, as a reader and a fan girl, I deserve to know if ran gets together with Shinichi. So please, I beg you Aoyama sama, just grant us a good and satisfactory ending already.
