Takashi Matsuo (松尾貴史 Matsuo Takashi?) (May 11, 1960 - ) is a Japanese tarento, narrator, disc jockey, actor, and columnist from Kobe, Hyōgo Prefecture. His pet name, as well as his former stage name, is Kitsch (キッチュ Kicchu?).

Matsuo asked Gosho Aoyama to do a case in Detective Conan which featured himself as the killer, resulting in the TV Station Murder Case (Volume 11). When the story was adapted for the anime, Matsuo provided his own voice.

In Detective Conan

In the TV Station Case, Matsuo is the host of a mystery show he created with producer Michihiko Suwa. He is an expert marksman with a gun and writes all of the 3 minute mysteries on the show. Suwa decides to replace him with an attractive model to get more ratings, so Matsuo decides to kill him on his last show.

With special guest Kogoro Mouri, Matsuo plays the newest 3 minute mystery, during which he runs offstage and calls Suwa on his cellphone. He tells Suwa to look out the window of his office and watch him kill himself, and when Suwa does so to try and stop him, Matsuo shoots him from the window above.

Eventually, Conan is able to figure out the trick, and, using Kogoro, reveals it on air, and catches Matsuo by pointing out that by simply retracing the last call on Suwa's phone, they will find the murderer. Matsuo confesses and admits that, despite what has happened, his happiest days were when he and Suwa were coming up with the show together.
