Stand by Me is a great movie, and Noein doesn’t come to that level. Noein excels in areas Stand by Me doesn’t touch, but thematically they’re similar.

I suppose it’s a fair statement?

If I’m not wrong, SELain was made before the matrix was produced, right? Anyway, it isn’t quite so accurate a match. Just nothing closer…

jpmeyer: After looking at IMDB, that seems like a good match.

Kent: I wanted to include “CSI” with Detective Conan but most of the deduction in the anime is based on visual clues, suspect interviews, and logic. There’s also that “a-ha” moment that doesn’t happen on modern TV procedurals but does in detective shows. Like I said, the relations may not be perfect or even make any sense.
