Overall I like this manga okay (though I eventually got tired of it and stopped reading it), but there is one thing that always annoyed the everloving crap out of me. The whole "we must keep Ran from learning the truth at all costs, for her own good!" bullshit.

First of all, why would learning the truth put Ran in danger? If the men-in-black learn of Conan's true identity, they will target Ran regardless of what she knows. If anything it would be prudent to let her know that if she ever sees those guys she shouldn't trust them.

Second, as the series goes on Ran's dad become super famous as the detective that puts countless criminals behind bars. So, as his daughter, Ran already has a target on her back.

OMG NO RAN IS ABOUT TO FIND OUT THAT CONAN IS SHINICHI was constantly used as a source of drama. but it was cheap, fake drama, because even if she had learned the truth nothing bad would have happened. It was SO annoying.
