| − | '''Bourbon''' is a member of the [[Black Organization]] in the manga and anime franchise ''[[Detective Conan]]''. He is a recently dispatched operative who specializes in deduction and intelligence gathering. He hates [[Shuichi Akai]] for some unknown reason. Bourbon's identity has not been revealed yet although many fans believe he is either [[Subaru Okiya]] or [[Scar Akai]]. | |

| − | ==Background==
| + | This soft redirect is meant to reduce the number of people who spoil themselves unintentionally. To find out what pages will be safe for you to read, please consult our [[Glossary#Spoiler|wiki spoiler policy]]. |
| − | Soon after [[Shuichi Akai]]'s death, [[Kir]] called [[Jodie Starling]] to report that a new member of the [[Black Organization]] called Bourbon had been dispatched. Kir said that Bourbon's target was the escaped scientist [[Shiho Miyano]] and that Bourbon has excellent information gathering skills and keen insight.<ref name=622p4>Manga Volume 60, File 3, Page 4: "Red, White and Yellow"</ref>
| |
| | | | |
| − | ==Personality==
| + | [[Category:Soft Redirect]] |
| − | [[Gin]] says Bourbon has a secretive personality like [[Vermouth]], and that no one can ever guess what he up to or what he will do.<ref name=703p3/> [[Vodka]] says that Bourbon hates Shuuichi Akai even more than Gin does, although a reason for this hatred is not given.<ref name=703p3/> Bourbon believes he is the only person capable of killing Akai.<ref name=703p3/> Gin said that if Bourbon found out Akai was alive, he would surely boast that his suspicion was correct.<ref name=703p3/> Gin and Bourbon probably don't get along and they don't seem to communicate with one another.<ref name=703p3/>
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Mission==
| |
| − | Originally Kir said that Bourbon's target was the escaped scientist [[Shiho Miyano]]. Another possibility is that Bourbon's mission was to investigate Akai's death to make sure there were no tricks. Bourbon doesn't believe Akai is dead, so it is possible that Bourbon is investigating to see if the real Akai is alive.<ref name=703p3/>
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Plot overview==
| |
| − | After hearing that Bourbon is on the move, [[Conan]] looks concerned, but doesn't tell [[Haibara]] about him.<ref name=622p6>Manga Volume 60, File 3, Page 6: "Red, White and Yellow"</ref> Much later, while Vermouth was looking at at a car accident related to a case that [[Sera]], [[Amuro]], and [[Okiya]] became involved in, she called Bourbon and commented that he had gained some trust<ref>It wasn't specified whose trust</ref> and that she expected him to keep his (unstated) promise to her.

| − | ==Identity==
| |
| − | Bourbon's identity has not been officially revealed yet.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Gender===
| |
| − | Kir uses the masculine only term "kare" (彼) to refer to Bourbon instead of a gender neutral term, but it is unknown if she has met Bourbon in person.<ref name=703p3>Manga Volume 67, File 7, page 3: "The Truth Amidst the Snowstorm"</ref> So far, all the Black Organization codenames for men are liquors while women's codenames are wine or wine-based cocktails. Bourbon should be a man if this pattern holds.

| − | ===Subaru Okiya===
| |
| − | [[Image:800px-Episode 581-6.jpg|thumb|right|Okiya smirking after telling [[Conan]] that he saw [[Scar Akai]] at the [[Setting#Beika department store|Beika department store]].]]
| |
| − | [[Subaru Okiya]] may be the [[Black Organization]] member Bourbon. Okiya is intelligent and observant, much like [[Hidemi Hondou]] describes Bourbon. In both the Paper Airplane Case and the Department Store Bomber case he is shown to solve cases on par with Conan.<ref>Manga [[Volume 61]] Files 8-10 (Paper Airplane Case)</ref><ref name=Bomber>Manga Chapter 702: The Bomber's Aim</ref> Okiya is also shown drinking [[wikipedia:Maker's Mark|Maker's Mark]] brand bourbon after the [[Deduction Showdown! Shinichi vs. Subaru Okiya|Paper Plane Case]].<ref>Manga [[Volume 61]] File 10: Rescue</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | During the Department Store Bomber Case, Okiya notices [[Scar Akai]], but when Scar Akai turns to look in his direction, he has suddenly moved out of sight to the back of the crowd, hiding his face and smiling.<ref name=Bomber></ref> He also smiles when he sees [[Chianti]] in the building across the street, aiming at the store entrance.<ref>Manga Chapter 703: The Truth Within the Snow Storm</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | Ai has told Conan that Okiya definitely gives her the dreaded feeling she gets from the Black Organization,<ref>Manga [[Volume 64]] File 1: Ikkaku Rock</ref> and she became certain he was with them during the Ikkaku Rock Case, where he gave a speech to the culprit about how impossible it is to ever truly escape anything, a speech she felt was intended for her<ref name=Speech>Manga [[Volume 64]] File 3: Thirst for Blood</ref> When Ai asks why Conan would allow someone as suspicious as him live in the Kudo house, he jokingly answers "No one who likes Holmes can be bad",<ref name=Neighbor>Manga [[Volume 60]] File 5: The New Neighbor</ref> but Haibara thinks Conan's real reason is to observe Okiya for suspicious activity.<ref>Manga [[Volume 65]] File 6: A Dangerous Couple</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Ran]] also feels uneasy around him and thinks he looks familiar.<ref name=Ran>Manga [[Volume 61]] File 9: Message</ref> At Shinichi's request, Ran goes out of her way to refrain from talking to Okiya about him during the Paper Airplane Case, although Okiya seems to realize anyway who the mystery loving classmate Ran is talking about is Shinichi.<ref name=Ran></ref>

| − | ===Scar Akai===
| |
| − | {{main|Scar Akai is Bourbon Theory}}
| |
| − | [[Image:Scar Akai gun.JPG|thumb|right|200px|Scar Akai after firing a gun at the bank robber holding Conan hostage. Scar Akai uses his right hand even though [[Okiya is Akai Theory#Okiya and Akai are both left handed|Akai is known to be left handed.]]]]
| |
| − | [[Scar Akai]] could be Bourbon who, with Vermouth's help, has disguised as Akai and is appearing before the [[FBI]] agents in order to gauge whether the real Akai is alive or not based on their reactions. Bourbon, who hates Akai and refuses to believe that anyone else could kill him, believes Akai's death was faked with help of [[Kir]] and the [[FBI]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | Arguments for Scar Akai being Bourbon note his inconsistent behavior; so far, Scar Akai has only been appeared in front of FBI agents rather than around Tokyo generally. Scar Akai seems to recognize the FBI agents which suggests he doesn't have amnesia, but he puts Kir in danger by wandering around in the open. If he recognized the FBI enough to leave [[Jodie]] a message, it is strange that he would not speak to the FBI agents since Scar Akai is capable of speaking. Also, Scar Akai is right handed based on how he fired a handgun, not left handed like Akai.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The FBI agents Scar Akai has appeared in front of so far, Jodie and [[Camel]], were known to be close to Akai and thus would be considered likely compatriots if Akai needed help faking his death. Given the circumstances of Akai's death, Bourbon must also suspect Kir is a spy and was in on the plan. In light of this, it makes sense that scar Akai would know [[Kogoro]]'s cellphone number; Kogoro texted Kir after the Ding Dong Dash case, and Bourbon got Kogoro's number from Kir's cellphone which was left in Gin's Porsche when the FBI mistakenly intercepted her.
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Gin]] lowering his gun from Kir's head shows that he doesn't think Scar Akai is the real Akai. Since Gin called Kir in the "Thirteen Red Shirts" case, he has held a gun to her head the entire time. After Gin observes scar Akai, he gives the order for [[Chianti]] to leave, and he removes the gun from Hidemi's head. He wouldn't have done so if he thought she was a traitor.

| − | ===Tooru Amuro===
| |
| − | [[Image:Tooru Amuro.jpg|right]]{{main|Tooru Amuro#Bourbon}}
| |
| − | Tooru Amuro, a new detective, is also speculated to be Bourbon. Tooru Amuro is named after Amuro Ray, the mortal enemy of the character [[Shuichi Akai]] is named after, Char Aznable. Bourbon is known to have have good deductive and intelligence gathering skills, which also holds true for Tooru. Many people also believe that Amuro is Bourbon also theorize that Amuro is the true face under the mask of [[Scar Akai]].<ref>Poll in Amuro's thread is currently 10 votes for Bourbon and Scar Akai out of 12 votes for Bourbon total on this matter</ref>

| − | ===Masumi Sera===
| |
| − | [[Image:Masumi Sera.jpg|right]]{{main|Masumi Sera#Speculation}}
| |
| − | Sera is a female detective that has appeared recently in Detective Conan. She transferred to Teitan High after her first case. She is often mistaken to be a boy, as she acts very tomboyish and has a flat chest, although she claims that they "are due to pop out anytime". It seems that she somehow knows Shuuichi Akai, and also resembles him. Their relationship is still unclear.

| − | ==Relationships analysis==
| |
| − | ===Shuichi Akai===
| |
| − | Bourbon despises [[Shuichi Akai]] for some unknown reason and believes he is the only one capable of killing him.<ref name=703p3/>
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Vermouth===
| |
| − | [[Vermouth]] and Bourbon seem to closer to one another than, say, Bourbon and Gin. Bourbon specializes in intelligence gathering, so he likely belongs to the same [[Black_Organization#Organization_structure_and_divisions| reconnaissance division of the Black Organization]] as Vermouth. Bourbon made an unknown promise to Vermouth, and she later calls to ask him if he will be upholding it.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Gin===
| |
| − | [[Gin]] hates Bourbon's personality and finds him annoying for being secretive and always doing what he pleases. At the same time, Gin respects Bourbon's detective abilities. The two do not seem to be in contact with one another, as Gin has no idea what Bourbon is doing.

| − | Gin: ''"Like you said, one who you wish only existed in novels. A detective like Sherlock Holmes."''<ref>Manga Volume 67, File 8, pages 13-14: "Silent Clash"</ref>
