* ReverseWhodunnit: An interesting case. The audience is shown Schindler's murder plot against Kashimura in full detail (outside of whiting out the murder weapon [[spoiler:as that spoils the trick as to how he got the weapon in the first place]]), and the victim leaves the dying message of marking the keys 'JTR' on his keyboard with blood. Conan and Yusaku independently figure out that the victim refers to 'Jack the Ripper', and Conan joins the game (which, as Agasa has confided in him, has a portion that's based on the Whitechapel serial murders) in order to track down what the message means, while Yusaku remains in the real world to investigate Kashimura's murder.

** Within the plot regarding the Cocoons,
Noah’s Ark created hijacks the game and trapped traps everyone in it so it could under the pretense of a 'resetting Japan' plot (as almost all the children barring the Detective Boys are the children of influential Japanese people). [[spoiler:Noah's Ark - or rather Hiroki - does replace one of the participating kids, and admits at the end when Conan wins the game that he really just wanted to play with some friends.]]
** In the real world, IT magnate Thomas Schindler is the culprit behind the murder of Tadaaki Kashimura, [[spoiler:with his motive for doing so being to dispose of Hiroki's DNA tracking software that has evidence proving he's of the lineage of Jack the Ripper.]]

Moved examples i.r.t this movie from Manga.Case Closed to here, causing a 114% increase in trope count.


* CensoredChildDeath: The closest the entire ''Conan'' franchise has come to killing a child on-screen was the start of this movie, which [[StartsWithASuicide starts with]] ten-year old [[ChildProdigy Hiroki Sawada]] jumping off a skyscraper. He removed his shoes and stood at the ledge of the balcony before [[GoryDiscretionShot cutting away]] to a scene minutes later when his superiors, who have been trying to get into his room, find [[BarefootSuicide his shoes]]...
* CharacterFilibuster: Ai and Hiroki were used for such purposes here. It's kind of jarring to see the latter switching between a {{woobie}} in the two ends of the movie and this in the middle.



* CreatorCameo: InUniverse. Dr. Agasa, who helped program the game the kids are trapped in, and Shinichi's father, who wrote the scenario for it, appear in a photo as Watson and Holmes, respectively. In addition, Irene Adler's appearance and personality were [[WriteWhoYouKnow based on Shinichi's mother]].



* HolodeckMalfunction: The plot is basically this; specifically, [[spoiler:[[BrainUploading Noah's Ark]] hacked into a [[InsideAComputerSystem VR gaming system]] and took the 50 players as hostage: WinToExit, or their brains will be ''literally'' fried!]]
* InsideAComputerSystem: The main premise involves the virtual reality gaming console "cocoon" that puts players into the gaming world by ''neural stimulation''. Of course, being a movie, we have the obligatory HolodeckMalfunction...
* RunawayTrain: Towards the end, [[spoiler:Conan ends up fighting UsefulNotes/JackTheRipper in a TraintopBattle on one of these.]]
* SnapBack: [[spoiler:The "death" of [[BrainUploading Noah's Ark]]]] can be said as one, to prevent the risk of adding in ''another'' CanonImmigrant as people who knew Conan's secret are, otherwise, important characters.
* StartsWithASuicide: ''Phantom of Baker Street'' started with the suicide of [[spoiler:[[ChildProdigy Hiroki Sawada]]]], moments after he was introduced to the audience.



* TrappedInAnotherWorld: A good bulk of the movie is spent inside the artificial world Noah’s Ark created.

* TrappedInAnotherWorld: A good bulk of the movie is spent inside the artificial world Noah’s Ark created.created.
* VillainousLineage: The NonSerialMovie ''The Phantom of Baker Street'' started out with sensible social commentary on Japan's hereditary culture but hits this trope around the revelation that the bad guy [[spoiler:is a descendant of Jack the Ripper and thus couldn't stop the murderous nature in his gene-- or, at least, killed people because he was found he was the descendent thereof.]]
** Of course it's not so much this as the bad reputation such a revelation would cause if it went public that scared him, because the hereditary culture would turn him into that character in the eyes of the people. And then at some point his panic caused his common sense to run a few red lights and then hit a lamppost, a little understandably. Basically, it could be about how concentrating on erasing the mistakes of one's ancestors can make you repeat them.

!! ''The Phantom of Baker Street'' provides examples of:

*AIIsACrapshoot: Noah’s Ark goes rogue and holds 49 children hostage inside their Cocoons.
*BarBrawl: SpoiledBrat Hideki Moroboshi ends up putting the gang in one after stealing a gun and firing it. Excluding Haibara, everyone participates but [[TheBigGuy Ran]] does the most damage.

*ComingOfAgeStory: The numerous rich kids who accompany, especially their leader Moroboshi are forced to mature and become humble throughout the course of the film.

*TokenAdult: Ran is always this when she hangs out with the Detective Boys, but it stands out more when she is with 48 children under 13. (Though Conan and Haibara are her age, only the audience is aware of that).
*TrappedInAnotherWorld: A good bulk of the movie is spent inside the artificial world Noah’s Ark created.
