why wouldn't I be surprised if this turned into a franchise of some sort? (after BRS this seems like the thing to do these days...)

I remember reading a volume of Case Closed. According to the auther, a police station had a poster of Conan and said something like "Stop Crime" or something.

Another one? First it was the ramen covers to protect those crooks stealing the covers or some craziness. Only in Japan can we get moe girl mascots to empower the masses.

What part of "magical" do you not understand? Razz It could be a trafic cone and it would be more powerful than a cattle prod.
