Sumiko Kobayashi (小林 澄子 Kobayashi Sumiko?), also known as Liz Faulkner in the Funimation dub, is a character in the manga and anime franchise Detective Conan. She is the homeroom teacher of Conan Edogawa and the girlfriend of Ninzaburo Shiratori. She is also the self-appointed (and somewhat unwelcome) "manager" of the Detective Boys.

Background

Personality

Kobayashi is very kind and fond of children, considering them the most wonderful thing in the world. But her kindness towards children caused her to have very little control over her class at her previous school, resulting in a disastrous Parent-Teacher Conference. To fix this she forced herself to be strict and harsh when she transferred to Teitan Elementary, but after Conan and the Detective Boys discover her nicer side she decides to be herself again.[1].

Kobayashi is also quite timid and sensitive. Even though she has appointed herself the manager of the Detective Boys, the kids often leave her out of case or ignore her warnings to not enter strange buildings. She was also quite hurt when she believed Inspector Shiratori was only interested in her because of her resemblance to Miwako Sato.[2][3]

Kobayashi loves mystery novels, particularly the works of Edogawa Rampo. Because of this, Ai Haibara suggests that she and Shiratori would work well together because Kobayashi would enjoy hearing about cases from him.[4]

Name Origin

Kobayashi-sensei is named after a friend of Gosho Aoyama's.
