2 plot holes in The Death March of Young Kindaichi File 3

(0 votes)

The Death March of Young Kindaichi File 3 - S2-E3

Plot hole: The crowd freaks out when Matsuoka's body is found and Kindaichi happens to be standing in front of it, gun in hand. That's all sorts of silly though, not only because the killer could have never predicted that turn of events, but also because Kindaichi roamed the streets looking for Matsuoka, gun in hand the whole time (it's a different gun from the one Matsuoka is killed with), and it's a girl screaming that draws everyone's attention to the murder. What about the two gunshots? Everyone in the background was entirely unfazed. It also creates a separate issue in the ending, since the plan to frame Kindaichi was supposed to be 'perfect' but the different gun would have spoiled it. (00:08:35)

The Death March of Young Kindaichi File 3 - S2-E3

Plot hole: Kindaichi bases his solution on a fact (there was a certain object on the elevator together with the victim) he couldn't know about, since Li did not mention it (and if he did, he would have been on the right track to solve the mystery himself).

Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 3 - S1-E21

Audio problem: Kindaichi is listening to the recording of the phone call a couple times over; however he does not listen to it in a loop, but rather the file shows up as lasting 52 seconds, with the call being just a handful of seconds. On top of that, when he listens to it again in front of the building, the timestamps don't match.
