Fanon

Definition

Facts about a fandom or fictional universe that hasn't been confirmed by the creator but the fandom generally accepts as fact.

More widely accepted than headcanons and once confirmed is capable of becoming canon.

Detective Conan Examples

• In fanfiction Shinichi Kudo always, always drinks his coffee black. Some go further to say that he is a coffee addict. This could've been sourced from Sherlock Holmes, who was a cocaine and morphine addict.

Other Examples

• Another point of debate is Kuroba Kaito's eye colour. In the Magic Kaito anime series it is depicted as blue. On the other hand in Detective Conan as Kaitou KID it is a darker colour. This is possibly due to the shadows from his hat and the fact that he always appear at night. In the fandom however, Kaito's eyes are usually described as violet or purple.
