Have 'The Enforced' made their way to pixiv!? Introducing the latest popular work and drawings 【Buzzword】
Where do 'I've been enforced' (執行した; 執行済) words spreading on various SNS come from?
Those words are derived from the title of the 22nd movie in the Detective Conan series: "Zero the Enforcer" (ゼロの執行人). People who have watched the movie began to spread words related to the title of the movie on various SNS.
The reason why "Zero the Enforcer" is so popular
'Zero the Enforcer' focuses on a character named Tooru Amuro (安室透) whose popularity began to rapidly increase since his appearance in the 20th movie 'The Darkest Nightmare' (純黒の悪夢). One of the charming points of 'Zero the Enforcer' is therefore a combination of Amuro's popularity and layers of complicated elements that have been incorporated into the movie. Some people believe that in the midst of movies that rely heavily on the action factor, this movie becomes distinguishable for the weight of its plot. The negotiations between Tooru Amuro and the protagonist Conan Edogawa have also garnered mainly the attention of female viewers.
The movie's influence on pixiv
The anime series 'Yuri!!! on ICE' was the number one most popular keyword among female users on pixiv for a long period of time until the ranking shifted on April 8. Since April 12, a day before the movie's official release date, the keyword 'Detective Conan' has kept its spot on top of the list. Other related keywords, as well as a great number of illustrations, have also been flooding pixiv ever since.

An official spin-off series with Tooru Amuro as the protagonist has also started
Debuted on May 9, 2018 in Weekly Shōnen Sunday is an official spin-off series titled 'Zero's Tea Time' (ゼロの日常(ティータイム)) with Tooru Amuro as the protagonist. Creating the original story of the new series is Detective Conan's original author Gosho Aoyama, but Takahiro Arai, who is known for the manga 'Darren Shan', is the artist in charge of the series' art.
Fans are waiting with bated breath how the new series will depict the life of Tooru Amuro, a man who plays three roles at once: an officer from the National Public Security Police, a detective, and a member of the Black Organization. People have also been talking about finding Weekly Shōnen Sunday sold out in many places, perhaps due to the influence of the movie.
