Crow (カラス karasu, also written as 鴉 or 烏) is a specie of ravenous birds of the genus Corvus. They are a main feature in the manga and anime franchise Detective Conan, as they represent darkness and the Black Organization, and Magic Kaito.
The Japanese believe black crows carry souls to the beyond. They also think the action of the city crows is the true manifestation of evil, because they are annoyed that dreadful crows are always invading their privacy by searching their food, or wire and hangers to make their nests, through other people's garbage. Furthermore, crows attack people.
