 +
 +
'''Character data'''<br>
 +
'''Conan Edogawa'''<br>
 +
Teitan Elementary School, Class 1-B / Detective<br>
 +
Shinichi Kudo, a high school detective, is Conan’s true identity.
 +
After witnessing a black-organization deal, he was forced to take the deadly poison APTX-4869, which shrank his body.
 +
To hide his survival from the organization, he now goes by the name Edogawa Conan and lives at the home of his childhood friend and girlfriend, Ran Mouri.
 +
While concealing his true identity, he solves numerous cases under the guise of Kogoro Mouri.
 +
Among those who know his secret, Professor Agasa and Ai Haibara—who shares the same fate—constantly support him.
 +
The professor’s inventions, in particular, have proven extremely useful when Conan combines them with his physical skills and deductive ability.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Shinichi Kudo'''<br>
 +
Teitan High School, Class 2-B / Detective<br>
 +
Edogawa Conan’s true identity.
 +
He is the only son of the famous couple — world-renowned mystery writer Yusaku Kudo and former actress Yukiko Kudo (née Fujimine).
 +
Shinichi himself was active as a celebrated high school detective, known by many titles such as The Great Detective of the East, The Savior of the Japanese Police, and The Heisei Holmes.
 +
However, after witnessing a black organization’s secret deal, he was forced by Gin to swallow the deadly poison APTX-4869, which shrank his body.
 +
To conceal his survival from the organization, he now lives under the alias Edogawa Conan, hiding his true identity.
 +
His parents, who had been living overseas, also know that Conan is really Shinichi; they have since returned to Japan to secretly support him while investigating the organization’s movements.
 +
His relationship with his childhood friend Ran Mouri developed into romance during their school trip.
 +
However, his temporary return to his original form caused the organization to take notice of him once again.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Ran Mori'''<br>
 +
Teitan High School, Class 2-B / Karate Club<br>
 +
Shinichi Kudo’s kind and strong childhood friend.
 +
Because her detective father, Kogoro Mouri, and her lawyer mother, Eri Kisaki, live separately, Ran handles all the housework as their only daughter living with her father.
 +
She takes care of Conan, who boards with them, and supports the Mouri household.
 +
Her relationship with Shinichi has developed into romance.
 +
After Shinichi confessed his feelings to her in London, she expressed her answer during their school trip to Kyoto by giving him a kiss on the cheek in front of Kiyomizu-dera Temple—a scene witnessed by her best friend Sonoko Suzuki.
 +
At Teitan High School, she is a member of the karate club and strong enough to have won the Kanto regional tournament.
 +
Although she hasn’t realized Conan’s true identity, she has suspected it several times in the past.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Ai Haibara'''<br>
 +
Teitan Elementary School, Class 1-B / Scientist<br>
 +
A genius scientist who, like Conan, was transformed into a child by a drug.
 +
Her real name is Shiho Miyano, and her actual age is 18.
 +
Within the Black Organization, she was known by the codename Sherry and was engaged in developing a poison that left no trace in a corpse.
 +
She inherited this research from her late parents but defected from the Organization after the death of her sister, Akemi Miyano, who had also been part of it.
 +
Prepared to die, she took APTX-4869, but instead of dying, she was transformed into a child.
 +
Although Vermouth knows the true identities of Conan and Haibara, she keeps their secret due to shared interests with them.
 +
Now going by the name Ai Haibara, she lives with Professor Agasa, who knows her circumstances.
 +
She continues to research an antidote to return Conan to his original form and has successfully created a temporary version that allows him to turn back for a short time.
 +
While she believes she has no surviving family, it is later revealed that she is actually related to the Akai family.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya'''<br>
 +
Teitan Elementary School, Class 1-B<br>
 +
The intellectual member of the Detective Boys.
 +
Polite and well-mannered in his speech.
 +
He used to have a crush on Ayumi, but after Haibara transferred in, he began to be interested in both of them. Shows a surprisingly mature side when it comes to matters of love. <br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Ayumi Yoshida'''<br>
 +
Teitan Elementary School, Class 1-B<br>
 +
The one who originally invited Conan and Haibara to join the Detective Boys.
 +
Cheerful, honest, and full of curiosity. Though innocent and carefree, she also has a surprisingly strong competitive spirit that even astonishes Haibara.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Genta Kojima'''<br>
 +
Teitan Elementary School, Class 1-B<br>
 +
A self-proclaimed leader of the Detective Boys, known for his strength, big appetite, and cheerful personality. He especially loves unajū (eel rice). Although he often speaks rudely to adults, he never means any harm.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Professor Hiroshi Agasa'''<br>
 +
Inventor <br>
 +
A 53-year-old genius inventor who lives next door to the Kudo residence.
 +
His full name is Hiroshi Agasa, though Conan and the others usually call him Hakase (“Professor”) along with his title.
 +
He knows the true identities of Conan and Haibara and serves as both a trusted confidant and a vital ally to them.
 +
He also lets Haibara live in his home.
 +
Agasa supports Conan with brilliant inventions that compensate for his child-sized body, such as gadgets and tools.
 +
He even provides the Detective Boys with detective badges equipped with built-in transceivers and often takes the children out on camping trips or picnics.
 +
His first love, Fusae Campbell, is a designer of a ginkgo-patterned fashion brand—one that Haibara herself often wears.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Sonoko Suzuki'''<br>
 +
Teitan High School, Class 2-B <br>
 +
The second daughter of the wealthy Suzuki family — a carefree, celebrity-obsessed young lady.
 +
Trendy and energetic, she often invites everyone to various events and places, either through her family’s connections or her own initiative.
 +
She has been a close friend of Ran Mouri and a childhood acquaintance of Shinichi Kudo since kindergarten.
 +
Having watched their relationship from up close, she often teased them by calling them a “married couple” long before they officially became lovers.
 +
A huge fan of Kaito Kid, whom she reverently calls “Kid-sama,” she frequently accompanies her uncle Jirokichi Suzuki—who is obsessed with capturing Kid—to heist locations.
 +
However, when her boyfriend Makoto Kyogoku, the world-renowned karate champion, was set to face Kid, she became deeply worried for his safety.
 +
There are even times when Conan uses Sonoko as his stand-in detective, giving rise to the persona of “Sleeping Sonoko.”<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Makoto Kyogoku'''<br>
 +
Haido High School / Karate Club <br>
 +
Captain of Haido High School’s karate club, known as “The Lone Fist Saint” and “The Noble Prince of Kicks.”
 +
He once held an undefeated record of 400 consecutive wins in world karate tournaments but willingly gave up a match—ending the streak—for Sonoko Suzuki’s sake.
 +
A serious, sincere, and devoted Japanese man, Makoto first developed feelings for Sonoko when he saw her passionately cheering for Ran Mouri during a karate match.
 +
Later, when he returned home to his family’s inn in Shizuoka, he reunited with Sonoko and confessed his feelings to her.
 +
They became a couple, though their relationship has since been long-distance due to his overseas training journey.
 +
He harbors a strong sense of jealousy toward Kaito Kid, whom Sonoko adores as a fan.
 +
It’s said that underneath the bandage he always wears, there’s a photo of Sonoko.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Heiji Hattori'''<br>
 +
Kaihō Academy High School, 2nd Year / Detective <br>
 +
A high school detective from Osaka, renowned as “The Great Detective of the West,” standing alongside Shinichi Kudo, “The Great Detective of the East.”
 +
When he once challenged Shinichi to a deduction match, he was deeply impressed by Shinichi’s belief that “there’s no such thing as superior or inferior reasoning.”
 +
After discovering that Conan is actually Shinichi, Heiji became one of his most trusted allies and often assists him in solving cases.
 +
He is the son of the Osaka Prefectural Police Superintendent, making him well-connected to law enforcement.
 +
His skill in kendo and his off-road motorcycle both play useful roles during investigations.
 +
He and his childhood friend Kazuha Toyama struggled for a long time with awkward, failed confessions, but they finally became a couple.
 +
Inside the matching charms that Kazuha gave him is an iron chain, a memento of one of their shared memories.
 +
According to Kazuha, when Heiji gets serious, he turns his cap around to wear it facing forward.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Kazuha Toyama'''<br>
 +
Kaihō Academy High School, 2nd Year <br>
 +
Heiji Hattori’s childhood friend — a spirited, strong-willed Osaka girl.
 +
Like Heiji, she speaks in Kansai dialect, and their lively back-and-forth often sounds like a married couple’s comedy routine.
 +
For a long time, their mutual feelings went unspoken, leaving them in a state of one-sided affection.
 +
However, after Kazuha accidentally overheard Heiji regretting that he hadn’t confessed to her, their relationship quickly progressed, and they finally became a couple.
 +
The matching charm she gave Heiji contains the chain from the handcuffs that once bound their hands together — a cherished memory.
 +
Her father is the chief of the Osaka Prefectural Police’s Criminal Investigation Division and a childhood friend of Heiji’s father, meaning both families had approved of their relationship even before they started dating.
 +
She has even faced her love rival, the “High School Karuta Queen” Momiji Ooka, in a karuta match.
 +
Kazuha also holds a second-degree black belt in Aikido.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Momiji Ooka'''<br>
 +
Kyoto Senshin High School, 2nd Year <br>
 +
A quick-witted high school karuta queen.
 +
She is the refined daughter of the distinguished Ooka family in Kyoto and is always accompanied by her loyal butler, Muga Iori.
 +
Since losing to Heiji Hattori in a childhood karuta tournament, she has harbored romantic feelings for him.
 +
She affectionately calls her romantic rival, Kazuha Toyama, “Happa-chan” (“little leaf”) while both pursuing Heiji and keeping Kazuha in check.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Muga Iori'''<br>
 +
Butler of the Ooka Family <br>
 +
The devoted butler who serves Momiji Ooka.
 +
He personally investigated Heiji Hattori, the young man his mistress has feelings for, and deemed him an ideal match.
 +
Though aware that Heiji and Kazuha Toyama share mutual but unspoken feelings, Iori still believes his lady has a chance and has gone to great lengths to prevent Heiji’s confessions.
 +
He was formerly a member of the Public Security Bureau (PSB) and is 30 years old.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Kogoro Mouri'''<br>
 +
Private Detective <br>
 +
The father of Ran Mouri.
 +
Once a struggling detective whose off-target deductions left his agency deserted, he suddenly gained fame after Conan began secretly solving cases behind the scenes—earning him the nickname “Sleeping Kogoro.”
 +
A cheerful man with a fondness for alcohol and gambling, Kogoro lives separately from his wife.
 +
A former officer of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, he possesses impressive skills in both judo and marksmanship.
 +
He is 38 years old.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Eri Kisaki'''<br>
 +
Lawyer <br>
 +
Known as the “Queen of the Courtroom,” she has maintained an undefeated record since her very first trial ten years ago.
 +
She married her childhood friend Kogoro Mouri, and together they had a daughter, Ran, though the couple is currently living apart.
 +
She and Yukiko Kudo were rivals in a high school beauty contest during their school festival days.
 +
She is 38 years old.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Yusaku Kudo'''<br>
 +
Novelist <br>
 +
The father of Shinichi (Conan) Kudo, possessing an even more extraordinary power of deduction than his son.
 +
A world-famous mystery writer whose “Night Baron” series is a bestselling hit beloved even by international fans.
 +
He is the one who gave Kaito Kid his name and was a friendly rival of the original Kid, Toichi Kuroba!?<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Yukiko Kudo'''<br>
 +
Former Actress <br>
 +
The mother of Shinichi (Conan) Kudo.
 +
She was once an active actress under the stage name Yukiko Fujimine before retiring after her marriage.
 +
Her exceptional disguise skills were learned alongside the American actress Sharon Vineyard (Vermouth) under the tutelage of the world-famous magician Toichi Kuroba.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Kaito Kid'''<br>
 +
Phantom Thief 1412 <br>
 +
Nicknamed the “Magician Under the Moonlight,” he is an internationally wanted master thief who specializes in stealing Big Jewels.
 +
He searches for a mysterious gem known as Pandora, and when a stolen jewel turns out not to be it, he courteously returns it to its owner.
 +
Before each heist, he dutifully sends a notice letter, then steals the target with dazzling skill, vanishing like a phantom—a true trickster.
 +
His heists often attract large crowds of fans, with Sonoko Suzuki among his most devoted admirers.
 +
His true identity is Kaito Kuroba, a second-year student at Ekoda High School with an IQ of 400.
 +
After learning that his late father, Toichi Kuroba, had been the original Kaito Kid, he took up the mantle himself to uncover the mystery behind his father’s death.
 +
He excels at mimicry, able to change his voice without using a voice changer or disguise equipment—and can impersonate Shinichi Kudo using only a hairstyle change.
 +
Although known as the “Kid Killer’s” rival, Edogawa Conan, the two have occasionally joined forces.
 +
Kaito Kid originally appeared as the protagonist of Magic Kaito.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Tōru Amuro:''' Café Poirot Waiter / Detective<br>
 +
'''Bourbon:''' The Black Organization<br>
 +
'''Rei Furuya:''' Public Security Bureau Officer NPA<br>
 +
A part-time waiter at Café Poirot who forced his way into becoming Kogoro Mouri’s apprentice after being impressed by (Conan’s) deductions.
 +
Handsome, polite, athletic, and highly skilled — he can cook, play the guitar, and handle any physical task with ease — making him extremely popular among female customers.
 +
In reality, he is Rei Furuya, an elite agent of the National Police Agency Security Bureau, Security Planning Division (commonly known as Zero).
 +
He is currently infiltrating the Black Organization under the codename Bourbon, where he has earned a trusted position as one of their intelligence operatives.
 +
In the past, his childhood friend and fellow undercover agent Scotch (Hiromitsu Morofushi), who had infiltrated the organization from the Public Security Bureau, died under tragic circumstances.
 +
Because FBI agent Shuichi Akai (Rye) was indirectly involved, Amuro deeply resents him, even while understanding the situation.
 +
He holds Conan in high regard for knowing his true identity and occasionally seeks his cooperation in investigations.
 +
His beloved car is a white Mazda RX-7, and he is known as the man of three faces — café waiter, private detective, and undercover agent.
 +
He is 29 years old.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Shuichi Akai:''' FBI Agent <br>
 +
'''Rye:''' The Black Organization<br>
 +
A left-handed, elite sniper of the FBI, highly skilled in Jeet Kune Do.
 +
He possesses exceptional physical ability as well as brilliant deductive skills.
 +
He infiltrated the Black Organization about five years ago and remained undercover for roughly three years under the codename Rye, during which he wore his hair long.
 +
While gathering intel, he approached Akemi Miyano (Haibara’s older sister), a low-ranking member of the organization, under the alias Dai Moroboshi, becoming romantically involved with her.
 +
Before she was killed by the organization, Akemi sent Akai an email confessing her feelings.
 +
When Scotch (Hiromitsu Morofushi), a Public Security Bureau agent, was exposed during his own infiltration, Akai tried to help him escape — but upon hearing approaching footsteps, Scotch took his own life with his gun.
 +
Ironically, those footsteps belonged to Bourbon (Tōru Amuro).
 +
During a joint operation devised by Conan, Akai had Kir (Rena Mizunashi) shoot him to fake his death, successfully deceiving both the organization and even his FBI colleagues.
 +
While in hiding, he assumed the identity of Subaru Okiya.
 +
His parents were MI6 intelligence agents from the U.K., and he is the eldest son of the Akai family.
 +
He is 32 years old.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Subaru Okiya'''<br>
 +
Graduate Student, Faculty of Engineering, Tohto University <br>
 +
A 27-year-old doctoral student in engineering at Tohto University.
 +
After his apartment, Mokuba-sō, was completely destroyed in a fire, Conan, who knew the circumstances, allowed him to stay at the Kudo residence.
 +
In truth, Okiya is actually Shuichi Akai, the FBI agent believed to have died in action.
 +
He uses a choker-style voice changer invented by Professor Agasa and disguises himself using the techniques he learned from Yukiko Kudo.
 +
He is aware of the true identities of both Conan and Haibara, and because of his connection to his late lover Akemi Miyano, he keeps a protective watch over Haibara.
 +
Within the Akai family, only Shukichi Haneda knows that Okiya is Akai’s disguise.
 +
After Akai’s “return,” the FBI was also informed that Okiya had been his undercover identity.<br>
 +
 +
 +
 +
'''Masumi Sera'''<br>
 +
Teitan High School, Class 2-B / Detective <br>
 +
A high school girl detective who transferred to Teitan High from overseas.
 +
Her tomboyish personality and use of the masculine pronoun “boku” often cause others to mistake her for a boy.
 +
She uses her mother’s maiden name, but she is actually the younger sister of the Akai family’s three siblings.
 +
Her older brothers are Shuichi Akai of the FBI and Shukichi Haneda, the professional shogi player.
 +
Influenced by her eldest brother, she is highly skilled in Jeet Kune Do and excels in close combat.
 +
Believing “Shu-nii” (Shuichi) to be dead, she occasionally seeks deduction advice from “Yoshi-nii” (Shukichi).
 +
She currently lives in a hotel with her mother, Mary Sera, who was de-aged by the APTX-4869 drug.
 +
When she was in first grade, she met Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri by chance at the beach.
 +
Because of that encounter—and her mother’s situation—she has strongly suspected that Conan and Shinichi are the same person.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Mary Sera'''<br>
 +
MI6 Intelligence Agent <br>
 +
A girl currently living in a hotel with Masumi Sera.
 +
In truth, she is the mother of the Akai siblings and a member of Britain’s MI6.
 +
She was forcibly made to swallow the poison APTX-4869 through a mouth-to-mouth trick by Vermouth, which caused her body to shrink.
 +
Believing Conan to be in the same situation as herself, she devised a plan to have her daughter Masumi steal the antidote that could restore her to her original form.
 +
Her maiden name is Sera.<br>
 +
 +
 +
'''Shukichi Haneda'''<br>
 +
Professional Shogi Player (Former Seven Titles Holder) <br>
 +
The second son among the three Akai siblings.
 +
A professional shogi player famously known as the “Taikō Meijin” (Great General of Shogi), once holding all seven major titles and currently maintaining six.
 +
After graduating from high school, he was adopted into the family of the late shogi player Koji Haneda.

 +
A subordinate of Rei Furuya (Tōru Amuro).
 +
While Furuya belongs to the National Police Agency’s Security Bureau, Kazami serves under the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department’s Public Security Bureau.

 +
During the course of his investigations, he also became a fan of singer Yoko Okino.

 +
Though haunted by his death, she eventually moved forward and became romantically involved with Detective Wataru Takagi.
 +
However, Inspector Shiratori and several other colleagues once tried to interfere with their relationship.
 +
Her late father was also a detective, and his sense of justice lives on in her.

Her beloved car — a Mazda RX-7 — is her father’s keepsake.

On mountain roads, her extraordinary driving skills earned her the nickname “The Silver Witch.”<br>

He is now serving as the Administrative Inspector of the First Investigation Division at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.<br>
