The film was released in Japan on April 10, 2026.[5]
Reception
Box office
The film has earned over ¥13 billion ($81 million USD), making it the highest-grossing among 2026 releases in Japan. It has now reached 27th place in the all-time domestic box office rankings, and ranks 4th among Detective Conan films, behind Detective Conan: Black Iron Submarine, Detective Conan: One-eyed Flashback and Detective Conan: The Million-dollar Pentagram.[6]
Critical reception
Phil Hoad of The Guardian gave the film 3/5 stars and says, "With a torn-from-the-headlines conspiracy revolving around automated vehicles and big data, Fallen Angel of the Highway thrashes through the gears of another briskly enjoyable whodunnit."[7]
The film received a 3.5-star rating from Robert Ewing of The People's Movies, who says "[its] ambition is a double-edged sword, leading to some of the most thrilling moments in the franchise but lacking the necessary bite to be one of the best."[3]
