Kindaichi finds himself onboard a cruise ship in which the captain mysteriously disappears the day after a big party. A search of the ship finds nothing, except for little drops of blood on the light switch in the captain's room. Might it be a clue perhaps? You bet! When what looks to be a case of serious foul play unfolds, the ship's radio is found disabled-so much for contacting the authorities. So, far out at sea until they can reach land, it's up to Kindaichi and friends to find the killer - and stay alive! (Source: NTV) ~~ Adapted from the manga series "The Kindaichi Case Files" (金田一少年の事件簿) written by Kanari Yozaburo (金成陽三郎) and Amagi Seimaru (天樹征丸), and illustrated by Sato Fumiya (さとうふみや).

If this series happened to came out of a book and manga, I don't know, I just based this review comparing it on both Season 1 and 4 that I happened to watch before this 3rd Season.

Out of 3 characterization of Kindaichi and Nanase I can say that this is my least favorite. Because of many minor point that's different between the previous and latter season. Like they are suppose to be a High School student but I can't see any traces of being a high school student on them. But in same way it became a good point on this series. I see that changes as both advantage and disadvantage. Another one is how Kindaichi was portrayed and her relationship with Nanase. Both character in other season are child-like and even though they rarely have this one-on-one scene where they admit their feelings on each other but the whole season Kindaichi and Nanase clearly show what they felt on each other. But on this season it seems like Kindaichi was totally unaware of Nanase's feeling for him and his feeling for Nanase was not apparent at all. Kindaichi in this series is full of angst from something we don't know where it came from. On the other hand Nanase may not be a genius like Kindaichi but she's intelligent on his own, but on this season Nanase was portrayed as illogical and frivolous girl, whose full of nonsense and very much emotional which I really don't like. Because the Nanase I saw on the previous series is good and a great help to Kindaichi.

But I enjoy this series despite all those differences and short comings because the cases are quite good.

Not good as previous season but not worst.

First, Sorry for my English as it's my second language.

I'm a Big Kindaichi fan have watched almost every adaptation of it. So I can claim here with certainity that Season 3 is the weakest of all.

I was reluctant about because of Matsumoto Jun. Idols don't usually do well in acting. Despite all that, he did a decent job.

So Kindaichi case file, as the name suggest is Murder Mystery series, in which a murder happens every week and kindaichi have to solve it. Its easy to understand that the core of this show was Mystery. Kindaichi Manga have lots of great and complicated cases and that was the saving grace for this season. They watered down the cases for the audience which made the case quite easy to solve. Despite being called 3rd season, it's pretty much stand alone and have nothing to do with previous seasons. So I can it can be good as stater for the people who want to try Mystery genre.

As for characterization, they changed or flipped Miyuki's and Kindaichi's character. They turned kindaichi in edgy and introverted guy who loved eating a lot. I liked the change honestly and Jun did well. Actual Kimdaichi was happy go lucky and pervert and that's why I wasn't sure if jun would have potrayed him well. I think that's the reason why they changed his character. As for Miyuki! There was nothing much in her and they just turned her into a annoying loud girl. But I enjoyed the Kenmochi of this version way lot than 1st season and Neo. I can say that about Takato too.

In the Music department, there was nothing new as they reused much of the music of previous season, which I liked. They even added Arashi ED which I can say was okay is.

Overall a onetime watchable series which can be completed in one day.
