Synopsis

Kimihiko Kimizuka is a crisis-magnet. From getting caught up in a crime scene to accidentally witnessing a drug deal, trouble seems to find him around every corner. So it is no surprise when his rather mundane flight suddenly enters a state of emergency with a dire need of a detective onboard. Unfortunately, his attempt at avoiding trouble is foiled by a beautiful girl with silver hair who goes by the codename Siesta. Declaring herself a detective, she unceremoniously drags Kimizuka into the case as her assistant.

That incident spelled the beginning of an adventure around the globe that went beyond his wildest imagination. Putting their lives on the line, the two took down criminal organizations, prevented disasters, and saved thousands. But the curtain closed to their epic journey with Siesta's untimely death three years later.

Resolving to live an ordinary high school life this time, Kimizuka spends a year maintaining a low profile. However, as fate would have it, a girl with an uncanny resemblance to Siesta comes crashing into his life, threatening to throw his peaceful days into disarray.

Preliminary (20/? eps)

Tantei wa Mou, Shindeiru (also known as The Detective is Already Dead, or its shorthand, Tanmoshi) is one of those experiences that you just cannot describe. It's a shame that this absolute gem of a light novel has flown under the radar for so long, but no longer! An official localization recently released and anime adaptation to air in a couple of days are present as well.

(As of writing, this is a summative review based on my experience of reading all five volumes currently available in all languages.)

Preliminary (6/? eps)

Reminiscing on the past is something we all do. We hold nostalgia for the past. But when something is over, it’s over. When it’s done its’ done, and when someone is dead, they’re dead. You may think fondly on your memories with them. Even try to reconnect in some way. Some visit graves, some pray to gods. But at the end of it all. What’s gone is gone. In this novel, we follow Kimizuka Kimihiko. As the assistant to the World Famous Detective, they travelled the world for three years, and lived unforgettable memories together. However, by the time the novel starts, the detective is ...

This story for me is acutally pretty good if it wasn't for the anime adaptation.

I bought the First volume right when it was announced that it will get a anime adaptation. Though super hyped about the adaptation i was just plainly disappointed. even so much that for me, it destroy the experience and feeling that I had when reading through the light novel so that it leaves a bad after taste when thinking about the butchered scenes from the anime adaptiation.

The story and art is actually pretty good. From the covers and the art shown in the LN,
the Characters though fulfill to many ...
