Meitantei_.

In this entry, the synopsis reads:

> The "real" episode 1 of Detective Conan written by the Mangaka Gosho Aoyama.

What makes this episode the "real" first episode? Was the story in the
original first episode not by the mangaka?

detective-conan
Why is Chiisaku Natta Meitantei considered the "real" first episode?


That is a [two-hour
remake](http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2016-09-13/detective-conan-anime-
gets-new-2-hour-tv-special-recreating-1st-episode/.106408) of the original 1st
episode, in celebration of the anime celebrating 20 years in broadcast. The
special retells what happened on the day Shinichi’s was transformed into the
body of a child. The special includes new scenes that weren't in the original
manga or the first anime episode.

It is because in first episode shown in anime they made certain changes from
the manga. The new first episode is going to be fully made according to the
manga. For example, in the manga Shinichi was viewing the transaction through
a camera, but in the anime Shinichi was watching without using a camera.

Also, the original manga creator said he added new extra content which was not
shown before but is important for upcoming events in the series
