Almost Great Detective

Almost Great Detective (수습 탐정 Apprentice Detective) is a Rare Costume for Cream Puff Cookie. It was released on October 9th, 2017. It is her first and only Rare Costume, and her second Costume overall, preceded by Dark Magic Hat. It was released as part of a massive Halloween event in 2017, being part of the first out of three weeks of Costume releases.

It gives a bonus to Cream Puff Cookie's points earned for Basic Jellies.

Almost Great Detective puts Cream Puff Cookie in a fairly stereotypical Sherlock Holmes-style outfit, finished off with large glasses and a magnifying glass. The Costume makes Cream Puff Cookie to be dorky and cute, having her act like a detective in a really adorably precocious manner, much like Walnut Cookie which came after her.

Being an earlier lower-end rarity Costume, it does not change any additional effects or Jellies for Cream Puff Cookie.

As a Rare Costume, it can either be purchased with Rainbow Cubes at any time or obtained from a Costume Gacha pull.

Story

Trivia

 * This Costume was released for Halloween, making this Cream Puff Cookie's Halloween costume.
 * Fittingly, this Costume is taken directly from LINE Cookie Run's Halloween event outfit for Cream Puff Cookie.
 * Almost Great Detective was part of the first batch of 2017 Halloween Costumes released, alongside of Mummy, God of Grape Juice, Black Swan, Mysterious Virtuoso, and Tuxedo.
 * Amusingly, including its time in LINE Cookie Run, Almost Great Detective was released four years before an actual detective Cookie, Walnut Cookie, was released.
 * Prior to being replaced by an NPC squirrel, Almost Great Detective was featured on the Jelly Mission wheel.
 * Almost Great Detective's story seems to potentially reference blood. It is more likely to be referencing strawberry jam, but is left up to viewer interpretation, which is notably unusual and likely a unique sign of the Costume's age before certain overarching story details were firmly established.
