Get ready, Conan fans! As the 28th Detective Conan theatrical film, "Detective Conan: The Afterimage of the One-Eyed Man," gears up for its release, the official team is pulling out all the stops with a brand-new "interactive standee." This isn't just any promo — it's your chance to step into the shoes (or rather, the chair) of the legendary "Sleeping Kogoro"! These special standees are rolling out across major cinemas in Japan (with some exceptions), promising an unforgettable fan experience.
This isn't your average cardboard cutout. This promotional standee features a specially designed chair, complete with a backdrop mimicking Kogoro Mouri's iconic "sleeping" moments. Fans can plop down, strike their best "Sleeping Kogoro" pose, and snap some truly memorable photos. Just remember to bring your own tranquilizer darts – they won't be provided on-site! 
But wait, there's more! The standee also comes equipped with Kogoro Mouri's voice system, so fans approaching it will hear his signature lines. And in what seems to be a nod to "Detective Conan: The Afterimage of the One-Eyed Man," the standee even features a tagline: "This time, I won't fall asleep!" Could this hint at a major plot point in the new film? We'll have to wait and see!

"Detective Conan: The Afterimage of the One-Eyed Man" is slated to hit Japanese cinemas on April 18, 2025, with other regions to follow on July 4, 2025.
