Special Post

I thought I'd do a special post I am thinking of doing one of these every once in a while covering a different Kindaichi related topic.

In this post I will talk about cases that haven't been adapted into anime format. We will go over each series and see which cases could be animated for future seasons

Main Series

File Series:
Out of the 19 cases in the file series 17 have been adapted in the old kindaichi anime
The 2 cases that haven't been adapted are:
1- Ijinkan Village murder case (case 2)
2- Head hanging school murder case (case 8)

even though these 2 cases aren't in anime format you could still read the manga or watch the live action adaptations of them.

Case Series:
All 7 of the cases have been adapted in the anime.
Originally only the first 6 have been adapted in the old anime and they couldn't adapt the 7th because the anime ended and the manga kept going.
The 7th cases has been adapted in the 2nd season of the Returns anime.

Shin Series
This Series has 8 full length cases and 6 short length ones. 2 of the cases haven't been adapted yet.
1- Snow Spirit Legend Murder Case (Full length)
2- Fudo High School Murder Case  (Short length)
Vampire Legend and Opera house 3rd murders have been adapted in the 2007 TV specials
Black Magic Murder Case has been adapted in the 2012-2013 OVAs
The rest have been adapted in seasons 1 and 2 of the Returns anime


20th Anniversary Series
This series has 3 full length case and 1 short one, 2 cases have been adapted and 2 haven't
The 2 cases that haven't been adapted yet are:
1- Cannibal Laboratory Murder Case (full length)
2- Dark Castle Murder Case (shorth length)
The cases have been adapted in the Returns anime series


Returns Series
Since this manga is still running not many cases have been adapted to the anime, in fact only 3 cases out of 11 have been adapted in the second season of the returns series
The cases that haven't been adapted yet are
1- Ghost School Building Murder Case
2- Student Akechi (short)
3- Antlion Moat Murder Case
4- Bloodthirsty Cherry Blossom Murder Case
5- Why is the Fireplace (Short)
6- Doll Island Murder Case
7- Black Spirit Hotel Murder Case
8- White Snake Cellar Murder Case


Spinoffs

Short File Series
This manga has 6 volumes worth of short cases the only cases that hasn't been adapted is
1- Bee Poison
The majority of the cases have been adapted in the old kindaichi anime except 2 cases in season 2 of the returns series.

Novels
out of the 8 novels 7 have been adapted in anime format.
The 1 that hasn't been adapted is the
1- Heresy Mansion Murder Case
All of the 7 cases have been adapted in the old anime
The 8th couldn't be adapted because the novel was released after the anime ended.

Takato Case Files
This spinoff hasn't been adapted

Total number of cases unadapted =
17 cases
  1. 11 long cases
  2. 6 short cases

So how many season do you think kindaichi can run for?

Before answering this question lets look at the first 2 season of the returns series and see how many cases they adapted in each run

  1. R season 1 adapted 9 cases
    1. 5 full length cases
    2. 4 short length cases
  2. R season 2 adapted 8 cases
    1. 4 full length cases
    2. 4 short length
So it seems that at average a season contains 8 cases with 4 long cases and 4 short ones. with this data kindaichi could probably run for 2 more seasons and we would have to wait again for new content.
