SYNOPSIS
嵐 Arashi - 時代 Jidai (Era)
The head of the touring magician company Magical Fantasy was murdered on a train on its way to Hokkaido, but the dead body disappeared as soon as it was found.

Young Kindaichi Hajime, the grandson of ace detective Kindaichi Kōsuke, happens to be riding on the same train, and he conducts his own investigation on the murder case.



REVIEW
Kindaichi Shōnen no Jikenbo Majutsu Ressha Satsujin Jiken is about a series of murders involving the touring magician company Magic Fantasy. The first death occurred on a train traveling to Hokkaido, and the dead body disappeared soon after it was found by several witnesses.

This drama is part of the Kindaichi Shōnen no Jikenbo production series, but since I'm somewhat strict when it comes to classifying related films, I consider Kindaichi Shōnen no Jikenbo Majutsu Ressha Satsujin Jiken to only be related to Kindaichi Shōnen no Jikenbo 3 because only those two dramas have the same cast.

It's fun when boys or young men play detectives, and solve crimes. Kindaichi Hajime has excellent logical reasoning skills, which he puts to good use by investigating crimes that happen around him and figuring out how the crimes were committed by the culprit.
