Gosho Aoyama (青山 剛昌 Aoyama Gōshō?) is the alter-ego of eponymous Mangaka Gosho Aoyama who appears in several of his series. He's known to most Detective Conan fans as the eggplant-headed, bespectacled version of Gosho at the beginning of the volumes, introducing his readers to the respective new book while getting killed by different means each and every time.

Background

Gosho Aoyama often depicts himself as a rather obnoxious person bent on cheating, who most often instantly gets punished for it - getting electrocuted by Kami-sama in Yaiba and killed by his assistants in the Detective Conan Omake and an unseen force in the forewords of the volumes. When he's not shown to be an incarnation of the Mangaka itself, he is often depicted as some kind of strict movie director, producing his series like they are serial dramas.

Plot overview

The Santa Claus of Summer

Gosho Aoyama appears on the cover of the one shot in a circle with the text "Gosho Aoyama Presents", looking a bit like a Kaito Kuroba with glasses and a bow-tie and fangs, making a roaring gesture parodying the MGM lion.

The Wandering Red Butterfly

The cinema Yusaku Kitakata and the mysterious lady "Wandering Red Butterfly" meet at is called "GoShow Cinema", with a bow-tie like his alter-ego wore a lot back then as an emblem.

Magic Kaito

Magic Kaito NG Collection (Magic Kaito Manga: Volume 1 Omake)

Gosho Aoyama appears as a blond-haired movie director called "A-Yama", shooting scenes from the volume, first interrupting Chapter 1 because Kaitou Kid's monocle is on the wrong side. He then tells Aoko Nakamori to hurry for her role as Princess Anne of Sublina in Chapter 2, but she forgets changing out of her school uniform, angering him. Kaito pulls a prank on him by putting a gold fish into the aquarium for the underwater scenes from Chapter 5. He also gets enraged about Akako Koizumi and her refusal to put on the skimpy witch dress, as well as playing her villain part too soft, because the "real" Akako is a good-tempered person. She and Gosho freak out when Aoko instantly gets the villain part right.

The Boy Who Bet on the Ball (Magic Kaito Manga: 11)

Two boys looking like younger versions of Gosho Aoyama's and Eiichi Yamagishi's alter-egos appear on the street, passing by Kaito Kuroba and Aoko Nakamori. A regular Gosho also appears right behind the reporter in Tokyo Dome, making a victory gesture with his hand.

Kaito-kun's Theatre (Magic Kaito Manga: Volume 2 Omake)

A sleeping Gosho Aoyama can be seen on the Royal Express to the left behind Aoko Nakamori, after her father found and destroyed Kaitou Kid's bugging device.

Omake Manga (Magic Kaito Manga: Volume 4 Omake)

Gosho Aoyama returns as the director, now in his eggplant form, finishing the shooting of "Dark Knight". He and everyone else leave to go get eat something and completely forget Kaito Kid still hanging from the wires at the ceiling.

Omake Manga (Magic Kaito Manga: Volume 5 Omake)

Gosho Aoyama remodeled Akako's house for use as the Kudo residence.

Gosho Aoyama as director finishes the shooting of "Sun Halo" and tells his assistants to get "the gate for the other series" for a remodeling of Akako Koizumi's residence into the Kudo residence. Kaito Kuroba is flabbergasted that Gosho's just recycling settings.

Yaiba

Gosho Aoyama is standing in front of Tokyo Tower, wondering that it starts to snow, shortly before Takeshi Onimaru appears in his airship and destroys the building to prove his power.

Tasty Trap (Yaiba Manga: 27)

Gosho Aoyama and two of his assistants, Eiichi Yamagishi and Yutaka Tani, enter a restaurant with "free food", actually a trap by Kumo-Otoko, disguised as the head cook, for Yaiba Kurogane and his friends.

Gosho Aoyama is one of the participants of the eponymous grand prix, much to the chagrin of his own characters. Just like with their vehicles, his number, the "5", is a pun, referring to the "go" in his name, with his char being a large Manga drawing pen on wheels. He tries to cheat close to the end of the race, erasing Sayaka Mine with a giant eraser and redrawing her right behind him to catch up, but Kami-sama, organizer of the grand prix, notices and electrocutes Aoyama, destroying his car in the process, effectively disqualifying him.
