Il detective Kindaichi

Knowing about the author's life and era, I wonder what inspired the detailed depiction of traditional Japanese society and how it shaped the story's mysteries.

The story's suspense builds slowly, and I was curious if that was intentional to immerse readers in the atmosphere or just the natural rhythm of the mystery.

His methods and personality felt unique for a detective of that time — I’d love to hear others’ take on his role in solving the case.
