Whelp, this about went the exact way I expected it to. For the sake of run-on and walls of text, I'll only reply to this in three bullet points.
Wow, large bullets. Anyway, that's all I have to say on the matter. I'd be glad to discuss this more when you release yourself from the hugely overbearing bias that you have towards the two shows, but for now I'd consider this discussion done.
First, the fans have nothing to do with this. Absolutely nothing. All of this you're saying about fans knowing that the organization will be taken down is, first off, not true, people joke about Conan never getting his body back all the time and that the show will never end, and second, not based around anything. Hints or otherwise, no one can be sure that they'll be taken down until they're taken down. That's all there is to it.
Off course , Fans has everything to do with this ! If Fans doesn't read/watch DC then who does ? Alien !
People joke or not , People know that DC has a ending and Conan will take down Black Organization.
Unless , Gosho Aoyama suddenly dies without finishing series !
But , The series actually progressing ! Its not stuck to where it started 15 year old.
Unlike Pokemon that stop progression and stuck to the same point it started 20 year ago ! The Best Ash ever did in qualifying in League , He haven't gone far beyond League.
Imagine , Dragonball series where Goku doesn't grow and keep participating in World martial Art Tournament to lose over & over again for 20 freaking year ! That how Pokemon is .
However , It can be ensure that Detective Conan does have an ending!
even those who joke about DC knows they are wrong and Detective Conan does has ending.
Specially since Gosho already reveal the Boss to be among one of regular character ! Which mean , He already decided the Boss & probably the ending .
Which also make fans watch the series even more so they can figure out ''The Boss'' before Gosho reveals him !
Its not like Pokemon where new game come every year and the anime just promote it .
- Second, I wasn't criticizing Ash, I was joking. Same as the above example, really. All this talk about how they handle the show meaning they're overconfident and the like, again, means absolutely nothing because it's a franchise. They sell it. That's how business works. Conan's the same way. Conan also has a circle. Any point where organization's members are introduced is a sign of fake or illusory progress, often times resulting in nothing of note and Conan being back to square one. Same deal. They're both in it for the money, don't make one out to be more chivalrous than the other. If you want proof, check out the marketing and sales for Conan's movies, it's rather telling.
Who said , He still in square One !
During The series , Conan manage to find valuable information about Organization and its Boss! Not to mention , Vermouth's Agelessness and her desire to end the organization and her secret connection with The Boss also raise several question.
Also A drag name ''Sliver Bullet'' is mentioned ! A powerful drag that change the world and One of the Organization main objective.
Plus ,That ''Unknown child'' in Sera's house indicate a revelation of valuable information .
Specially since child shows similar intellect and Maturity as Conan & Ai ! Which mean she probably a victim to APTX 4869 or Sliver Bullet.
Truth is , currently Conan has more information about organization then he had during Episode 100 !
You really didn't read much of Detective conan , Haven't you ?
Third, and here's the big one, Pokemon's a Kid's Show. It's writing isn't bad, it's simple. Ash's adventure doesn't end because there's no reason for it to, people aren't demanding an ending. It continues to make money, and it continues to make money (hey look, just like Conan), and hearing you say all of this and call its fans (and me, for a separate reason) idiots just proved that this is no doubt favoritism and you're opinion on the matter isn't really worth much because you aren't considering the shows equally. The proof is in the pudding. Specifically, we weren't talking about the quality of the shows- it should have never come up. We were talking about their structure. In the beginning I asked why you didn't like Pokemon, and then it would have made sense, but now we're talking about how the two are similar objectively, and one being a "masterpiece" and the other being quite the other way aren't exactly objective, with DC being on a pedestal free from any flaws and Pokemon being the cream of the crap. You let your feelings get in the way of your honest opinion, and that doesn't really make for fair debate.
One of Common excuse to Justify writers Action !
There is no rule Kids Anime doesn't need good writing ! Its just a dirty excuse to shove all the blame on Kids .
Writing Kids Anime is not easy ! If its was that easy everyone would try to be rich by making Kids anime and Manga .
Kids Anime has to be Simple But Unique ! Thats that hard part.
You saying Pokemon Anime is Simple ! Do you think Focusing on Multiple People with Multiple Goal is ''Simple'' ? That not how a Kids anime work , That how a Drama show like ''One tree hill'' work !
The Original series was Simple ! It mainly focused on Ash's goal while Brock & Misty supported him so it was easy for follow.
But the story started to get complicated when writers started focusing multiple Goal of Multiple character .
A series can focus on Mulitple character with One objective But its not easy to focus on Multiple Character with Multiple objective.
The Main Reason PokeSpe's story is so much better then Pokemon because the series mainly focus on One thing -- '' PokeDex holder saving the world from Evil'' .
Same way How Digimon focus on ''DigiDestined saving the world'' while Doreamon mainly focus on all the mischief caused by Doreamon's Gadget.
Oh by the way , Kids anime has different category and Pokemon is in ''Shouene'' category ! Just like ''Crayon Shin-chan'' is aimed toward Adult So Shin-chan can take off his pant and dance with his naked butt without any patent complaining .
Also , Have you reading the Pokemon thread ? Everyone asking for Ash to win the league . It doesn't matter if the series ends or not as long as Ash win the league and move on to bigger target.
DC is not in same level as Pokemon ! Ever wonder why anyone doesn't make pun about Ran , Nobita and Shin-chan not aging .
There are multiple theory regarding Ash's agelessness but how many people does talk about Ran not aging in Detective Conan .
Why do you think Pokemon rating drops with every series while DC rating remain the same ? Because Fans expectation of Ash winning the League drops with every series So Older fans drops the series & Newer fans ignore it but DC still read and watch by both its older & newer fans because they believe its worth to wait for Conan to end Black organization.
