Kakutou Bijin Wulong
Looking like any high school student, Mao Ran appears to be just a cute and normal young lady, but one with a fiery temper. She is also happens to be the heir to the Mao family tradition and is a master of the Mao style of unarmed martial arts. While Ran is reluctant to show her skills and avoids getting involved in any formal or competitive fights, her grandfather manages to succeed in tricking her into participating in a boxing-ring-style martial arts event called the ‘Prime Mat’. The challenge of fighting against strong rivals pushes her skills to the limit, and her initial reluctance gradually gives way to thrill and excitement as she looks forward to her next competitor.

Meitantei Conan
Rent High School student Shinichi Kudou was a virtual Sherlock Holmes, who the Tokyo police regularly turned to for help in solving baffling cases. But then he accidentally learned too much for his own good about a murder case, and was caught by the villains. They poisoned him and left him for dead, but the "poison" had an unexpected effect--rather than killing him, it caused Shinichi to revert to the appearance of an elementary school boy! He retains his skills as a brilliant detective, however, and since that incident has managed to become adopted by his former girlfriend and her less-than-exemplary private detective father. With them he carries on his passion, and searches for clues to a possible antidote to the poison he was forced to swallow.
