Ninzaburo Shiratori, also known as Nicholas Santos in the Funimation dub, is a character on the anime Detective Conan. Shiratori works alongside Inspector Megure, often acting as an extra officer or pair of eyes, though he later on becomes an inspector on his own. Originally, Shiratori only appeared in the movies, but later on became a regular member of Megure's force in the series, in a role similar to Wataru Takagi. Both him and Takagi are considered rivals for Miwako Sato's affections, and Shiratori will often try to show off in front of Takagi by asking Sato on a date to rich restaurants. Sato always rejects him however, much to his dismay.
Contents
Background
Shiratori's debut was in the first movie, The Time-Bombed Skyscraper, acting as a member of Megure's police force.[1] At first, Shiratori only appeared in movie roles, playing key roles in the first three Detective Conan movies. Shiratori's debut in the show was episode 146, Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story Part 1. It is announced in this episode that he has become a full time inspector.[2]
Personality
Shiratori comes from a wealthy family, and he has shown a large background in skyscrapers and fancy wines.[1][3] Because of his background, Shiratori acts much more conceited than his counterpart, and rival for Miwako Sato's affections, Wataru Takagi. In fact, Conan even believes that Shiratori is a suspect in the first movie, and Kogoro Mouri even at one point concludes that Shiratori is the one planting bombs, due to his heavy interest in skyscrapers and buildings.[1]
Shiratori also shows affection for Miwako Sato, often asking her out on dinner dates, but always being turned down, much to his dismay.[2] He also knows that Takagi also has feelings for Sato, and often will put down Takagi while in front of her, by showing off how he is wealthy and wants to take her to fancy dinner dates.[2] However, Sato does not feel the same way for him, and always turns him down.
Shiratori, like Sato and Takagi, believes that Conan has a lot of intelligence for a boy his age, but unlike Takagi and Sato, he does not tend to care much for Conan's opinion. He often feels that Conan gets in the way, and that he himself could have figured out the case without Conan's help, though Conan always proves otherwise.
