	Eisuke is the son and youngest child of Ethan Hondou and his wife. Eisuke grew up living with his mother, who worked as a housekeeper, unaware that his father was a CIA agent. His older sister [[Hidemi Hondou\|Hidemi]] was in school abroad during that time, but came and visited during holidays, while his father lived and worked in Osaka and came by on New Year. Eisuke was very sick as a child and was very close with Hidemi, who always took him to the hospital. After that his mother passed away due to illness, and Eisuke's father brought him to Osaka to live with him. There, he was injured in an accident and underwent surgery. But after that surgery, Hidemi left and Eisuke lost contact with her. Soon after, Eisuke's father left him under the care of a friend to work undercover in the ~~black~~ Organization, but until his death he still had contact with his son and sent him money.

Eisuke was very sick as a child and was very close with Hidemi, who always took him to the hospital. After that his mother passed away due to illness, and Eisuke's father brought him to Osaka to live with him. There, he was injured in an accident and underwent surgery and a bone marrow transplant.

Soon after, Eisuke's father left him under the care of a friend to work undercover in the [[Black Organization]], but until his death he still had contact with his son and sent him money.

	Eisuke first appeared soon after one of [[Conan Edogawa\|Conan]]'s confrontations with the [[Black Organization]], in which Conan discovered the popular newscaster Rena Mizunashi was one of their members. He transferred to Teitan High School and quickly made friends with [[Ran Mouri]] and [[Sonoko Suzuki]]. He had come to Tokyo to investigate ~~Rena~~ Mizunashi who he thinks is connected to Hidemi's disappearance due to their similarity. He learned that Kogoro Mouri was the last to meet Mizunashi, before she took time off and concluded first he was hiding her somewhere. But as he researched the detective, he started to suspect Conan was really [[Shinichi Kudo]] and behind Sleeping Kogoro.

	Eisuke is the son and youngest child of Ethan Hondou and his wife. Eisuke ~~lived~~ with his mother, who worked as a housekeeper, unaware that his father was CIA-agent. His older sister Hidemi was in school abroad during that time, but came and visited during holidays, while his father lived and worked in Osaka and came by on New Year. Eisuke was very sick as a child and was very close with ~~his sister~~, who always took him to the hospital. During those trip Hidemi told her brother that had a bloodtype that he could share with everyone (meaning he was born a type O). At some point during his childhood in Tokyo he became ill of leukemia and to treat him, Hidemi donated her own bone marrow to him. The operation was a success, but unknown to Eisuke his bloodtype changed from O to AB, because it was Hidemi's blood type and in such treatments the patient's bloodtype can change to the donor's bloodtype. After that his mother passed away due to illness, and Eisuke's father brought him to Osaka to live with him. There he was injured in an accident, and ~~Hidemi was used as blood donor, which was possible, since the siblings now had same bloodtype~~. But after that surgery, Hidemi left and Eisuke lost contact with her. Soon after Eisuke's father left him in care ~~with~~ a friend to work undercover in the black ~~organization~~, but until his death he still had contact with his son and ~~send~~ him money.

	Eisuke ~~Hondou~~ first appeared soon after one of [[Conan Edogawa\|Conan]]'s confrontations with the [[Black Organization]], in which ~~it was revealed that~~ popular newscaster ~~[[Hidemi Hondou\|~~Rena Mizunashi]] was one of their members.

	Eisuke had been investigating Rena Mizunashi, noticing the resemblance she had with his sister and suspected that she was connected to Hidemi's disappearance. He learned that Kogoro Mouri was the last to meet her, before she took time off and concluded first he was hiding her somewhere. But as he made research on the detective, he discovered a big difference in his deduction skills before and after he become 'Sleeping Kogoro' and noticed that Conan was always by his side.

	Some time later, Eisuke visited [[Kogoro Mouri\|Ran's father]] in his office, where he also ran into Conan. After expressing a vivid interest in Mouri's work, he was invited by Ran to come by anytime, much to the displeasure of Conan, who had become suspicious of Eisuke. This suspicion was confirmed by the fact that in subsequent cases Eisuke made several blunders which would 'incidentally' contribute to the solution of the relevant case.

	At the ending of the case, Eisuke walks home alone with Conan. He asks Conan to speak with Shinichi about his intentions to marry Ran and live with her in America. Conan angrily tells him that he can't, and reveals his identity as Shinichi Kudo to Eisuke. Eisuke laughs, and informs Conan that he had guessed it all along- showing all his deductions to Conan. He then tells Conan that he will move to America and join the CIA, following in his father and sister's footsteps. He admits that he was looking into Kogoro, because he had heard he was the last person to see Rena Mizunashi before she disappeared. He had concluded that Kogoro was sheltering her some way, but after checking him out, Eisuke realized that there was a big difference in his skill before and after he becomes the sleeping Kogoro. He connected Kogoro's rise as detective with Shinichi's absent from school and with Conan's present. But he did fall in love with Ran, so he asks Shinichi to make her happy.

			==Plot exposition==
			===Hints that Eisuke was the biological younger brother of Rena Mizunashi===
			[[Image:Hondou Eyes.jpg\|right\|thumb\|250px\|Rena and Eisuke's eyes match.]]
			* They look alike. Both have unique matching eye designs.
			* Rena Mizunashi mentioned having a little brother just after the Ding-Dong Dash case.<ref>Manga Volume 49, File 9, pg 16: "Ding-Dong Dash"</ref> After hearing that the child's mother died, which mirrors her own family situation<ref>Deceased Mother's Memento</ref>, she became emotional to the point of crying. Conan noted a similar reaction of Eisuke's later<ref>Nail Snake and Hammer case</ref> likely meant he wasn't acting.
			* Eisuke has a mark on his chest where a needle was inserted to monitor his leukemia.<ref>Deceased Mother's Memento</ref> A nurse later revealed that he has leukemia and was given a bone marrow transplant from his sister. Bone marrow transplants change the blood type of the receiver to that of the marrow donor, so Eisuke's blood type changed from type O to type AB. Later his sister was able to donate AB blood to him because of this.
			* Hidemi and Eisuke both use the same classical lie detection technique - feeling for the pulse while watching the pupils - which is taught by some American law enforcement agencies.

			===Hints that Eisuke was not a member of the Black Organization===
			<!--*Eisuke became emotional in nail snake hammer case -->
			* He uses a classical lie detection technique - feeling for the pulse while watching the pupils - which is taught by American agencies. He learned it from his father who was a CIA agent.
			* Conan discovered that Ethan Hondou, Eisuke Hondou's father, was a member of "The Company" - a nickname for the CIA. The Black Organization knew Ethan Hondou's real name and that he was a spy. Thus it would be unlikely for them to take Eisuke in because of his family history.
			* Eisuke had strong suspicions that Conan was Shinichi evidenced in several questions he asks Kogoro about Conan's activities at crime scenes. Despite this, the Black Organization did not take action against Conan which implies Eisuke and the Organization are not in contact.
