It has been serialized in [[Shogakukan]]'s [[Shōnen manga|{{Transliteration|ja|shōnen}} manga]] magazine ''[[Weekly Shōnen Sunday]]'' since January 1994; its chapters are collected in 107 {{Transliteration|ja|[[tankōbon]]}} volumes as of April 2025. Because of legal problems with the name ''Detective Conan'', the English language releases from [[Funimation]] and [[Viz Media]] were renamed ''Case Closed''. The story follows the high school detective [[Shinichi Kudo]], whose body was transformed into that of an elementary school-age child while investigating a mysterious organization. Generally, he solves a multitude of cases by impersonating his childhood best friend's father and various other characters. The manga was adapted into an [[anime]] television series by [[Yomiuri Telecasting Corporation]] and [[TMS Entertainment]], which premiered in January 1996. The anime resulted in [[List of Case Closed films|animated feature films]], [[List of Case Closed OVAs|original video animations]], [[List of Case Closed video games|video games]], [[Case Closed discography|audio disc releases]] and [[List of Case Closed live-action drama episodes|live action episodes]]. Funimation licensed the anime series for North American broadcast in 2003 under the name ''Case Closed'' with the characters given [[Americanization|Americanized]] names. The anime premiered on [[Adult Swim]] but was discontinued due to low ratings. In March 2013, Funimation began streaming their licensed episodes of ''Case Closed''; [[Crunchyroll]] simulcast them in 2014.</onlyinclude> Funimation also localized the first six ''Case Closed'' films, while [[Discotek Media]] localized the ''[[Lupin III]]'' [[Lupin the 3rd vs. Detective Conan|crossover special]], its [[Lupin the 3rd vs. Detective Conan: The Movie|film sequel]], and select films, starting with ''[[Case Closed Episode One]]''. Meanwhile, the manga is localized by Viz Media, which used Funimation's changed title and character names. [[Shogakukan Asia]] is making its own localized English version of the manga, which used the original title and Japanese names. The {{Transliteration|ja|tankōbon}} volumes of the manga had over 270 million copies in circulation worldwide by January 2023, making it one of the [[List of best-selling manga|best-selling manga series]] of all time. In 2001, the manga was awarded the 46th [[Shogakukan Manga Award]] in the {{Transliteration|ja|shōnen}} category. The anime adaptation has been well received and ranked in the top twenty in ''[[Animage]]''{{'}}s polls between 1996 and 2001. In the Japanese anime television ranking, ''Case Closed'' episodes ranked in the top six weekly. Both the manga and the anime have had a positive response from critics for their plot and cases. The manga has been sold in 25 countries, while the anime has been broadcast in 40 countries.
