This week, with the appearance of number 46 of Volume 2 of the collection, Detective Conan has become the manga longest ever published in Spain leaving behind the tie that held for a month with Dragon Ball. While the magnum opus of Akira Toriyama , concluded many years ago, stayed in the 42-volume manga by Aoyama Gousha has already reached 43 volumes and still is here to stay. For now, Metro has officially announced the acquisition of the series until Volume 49 Japanese in Spain is the number 52 of Volume 2 .
Detective Conan began in our market in May 1998 with 6 volumes of bimonthly. A pesar de las bajas ventas, esta primera tanda fue seguida de 7 tomos más, de salida mensual. Se intentó incentivar al aficionado regalando el primer tomo con el séptimo volumen, además de bajar el precio de 1.200 pesetas (7,21 euros) a 995 pesetas (5,98 euros). No sirvió de mucho, ya que la serie tuvo que cerrar después de esos 13 volúmenes, aunque ya en aquel momento esa cifra la convertía en uno de los mangas que más habían aguantado en nuestro mercado. Posteriormente, la emisión de la serie de televisión en la cadena autonómica catalana -y en menor medida su paso por Cartoon Network y Antena 3 - cambió la situación.
A key event was the farewell of Antonio Martín as editorial director and the entry of Jesus Pece (translator of the first 10 volumes) in office. It also paved the way for the return of Conan Edogawa to publishing outlets for short stories Gousha Aoyama., Which served as proof to the publisher. Determined and then Metro chose to use the format Manga Library, which involved 96 pages and 5 complete stories each month. Finally, in February 2002 the series returned to the stores under the subtitle of Volume 2 and starting again from number 1. After 32 issues (16 volumes Japanese), doubled the number of pages from number 33-October 2004 - format that remains today. At this time, we have also reprinted the first 13 volumes in Manga Library format of 192 pages and 4 volumes have been published in Catalan.
success Detective Conan, whose strong sales have varied depending on whether the animated series was on air or not, allowed in 2004 was published Kaito Kid (3 volumes), in the year we saw recently finished editing The magic bat (number one) and that within a few months appears Yaiba (24 volumes), the other long work of the author, in an edition of 12 wideban volumes.
How long can record Detective Conan? It is not easy for a publisher to risk bringing sleeves over 40 volumes. So far, the longest titles in addition to Detective Conan (43) and Dragon Ball (42), are Ranma 1 / 2 (38), Inu-Yasha (37), Do not tell me with flowers (36) and Slam Dunk (31). Given that all of them, except for Inu-Yasha , who has already compiled 43 volumes, and a few others, such as Captain Tsubasa (23/37), City Hunter (18/35) or Rave (10/35) - are closed series in Japan, it seems that the only ones that could reach Detective Conan are own Inu-Yasha and One Piece (28), which in Japan has just arrived to take 40. Time will tell if another book will snatch the "honor" of being the longest manga published in Spain this 'romantic comedy with murder " as defined by its author.
