Maybelle West is a young relative of the famous Miss Marple, and an aspiring detective in her own right.

Can Kyu, along with fellow classmates Megumi, Kintarou, Kazuma and Ryu, meet the demands of the school and the crimes that cross their paths?
Both Poirot and Marple and Detective Academy Q are detective stories that involve many characters and have the whole crazy crime set-up. If you liked one, try out the other.
Excellent series which stimulate the viewer's intelligence and challenge creativity without focusing on the gory elements of crime. Plot turns and twists everywhere. These are masterful works of ingenious detective fiction. Agatha Christie is known as the Queen of Detective fiction, and the writers of Detective Academy Q are hot on her tracks.
It is only natural that you would enjoy Detective Academy Q if you liked Agatha Christie Poirot and Marple. The same applies for vice versa. Both series cover engaging and intelligent detective work. Common events that occur involve murder and deductive skills. It is an episodic series that deals with the same cast of characters, but the cases they address involve different people each time. Both anime definitely give the same mood of "mystery". Detective Academy Q has a more colourful cast with embeded humour, while Agatha Christie Poirot and Marple takes a more conservative role.
Tachibana Sakon is a skilled puppeteer with an unusual hobby: solving murders. Along with Ukon, a one-of-a-kind puppet made in the Meiji era, Sakon manages to find himself in a variety of life-threatening situations. Join the duo as they put their detective skills to the test in terrifying cases of revenge, malice, and murder.
Both are mystery series that focus on the younger main character. They both showcase strong intellect rather than other traits to solve their crimes as well. Both also use a steady amount of humor and have a light side.
Both of these series are detective mysteries, obviously, but more than that they share the element of "participation" - letting the audience guess "who did it." In Ayatsuri Sakon, this becomes more of a process of elimination as the suspects are picked off one by one, while in Great Detectives it's more deduction. Though Ayatsuri Sakon is far more "scary," any mystery fan will enjoy it just as much as Great Detectives.
Shinichi Kudo is a famous teenage detective who follows in the footsteps of his favorite hero, Sherlock Holmes, solving difficult cases with ease.

To cope with the new appearance, he took on a new name, Conan Edogawa. Can he, with his new alias and help of friends and family, capture the culprit?
Both Poirot and Marple and Conan are series that have a central crime that gets solved in one or many episodes. If detectives are your thing, try out both of these.
Agatha Christie, a great master of mystery writing, and Conan, named after Christie's main influence in writing her mysteries - Basically, both of these series are perfect for lovers of classic mystery lit.
