George is one of the most popular and prolific latte artists in Japan. He was one of the pioneers in his field and has a great following on social media. He has also shared many of his works with our fans as a TOM Special Creator.
This time, George's humor brought the house down in Japan's Twitterverse with this series of seemingly normal Detective Conan / Case Closed latte art that concluded with a surprise.
He starts off with the protagonist, Kudo Shinichi and Edogawa Conan. Looking good here!

Next, he draws one of the sinister antagonists, Gin.

He then concludes the Detective Conan latte art spree with a cup of the series' heroine, Moori Ran, referred to affectionately by Japanese fans as "Ran-neechan". Naturally, we were expecting this:

Ran's odd horn-shaped hair has been a running joke with fans of the series for years and George's little prank certainly gave us a good laugh!
