Detective Conan











The English manga names will be used, with the Japanese original in brackets at their first mention. Japanese names are in Western order, with the surname after the given name, with the exception of Edogawa Rampo (Edogawa is the last name here).
At the beginning of the story, 17-year old (16 years in the manga) high school student
Jimmy Kudo (Shin'ichi Kudo) becomes a 6-year old boy, Conan Edogawa. Jimmy Kudo in the beginning is known as a high school student detective. One day, Jimmy goes to a theme park named "Tropical Land," with his childhood friend, Rachel Moore (or Ran Mori). He encountered a case where a roller coaster passenger, Kishida (Kenneth in the English anime), is killed in a spectacularly bloody decapitation[5]. He solved the case and then on his return home, he witnesses a suspicious deal of some men dressing completely in black. One man in black spots him, knocks him down, and gives him an untested poison named Apotoxin-4869 (APTX4869), which is intended to kill him and ensure there will be no body left to investigate. Although he isn't killed by the poison, when he comes to his senses, his body has shrunk down to the size of an elementary school boy.[6]
Following the advice of
Dr. Hiroshi Agasa (Dr. Herschel Agasa in the English anime), Jimmy hides his real identity, lest the men in black find out that he is alive. When Rachel asks for his name, Jimmy spots books by Arthur Conan Doyle and Edogawa Rampo and comes up with the name "Conan Edogawa." Agasa says that "Conan" is a relative of his, but was too busy to take care of a young child, and suggests that "Conan" go live with Rachel, and both Conan and Rachel agree.[7]
Rachel's father,
Richard Moore (Kogoro Mori) is an incapable detective. Conan always solves mysteries in his stead. As Conan appears to be just a boy, police don't pay any attention to him. Conan instead uses Detective Moore by putting him to sleep with a "anesthesia gun-watch"[8] and pretending to be Moore by using a voice changer disguised as a bow tie. [9] Other important characters that appear (some later) are Jimmy's parents Booker (Yusaku) and Vivian (Yukiko) Kudo , Harley Hartwell (Heiji Hattori), a rival detective from Osaka[10], a gentleman thief Phantom Thief Kid ( Kaitō Kido?)[11] , who also appears in Magic Kaito), the inventor of the APTX4869 Shiho Miyano (codename "Sherry" within the black organization, turned into a child also after she took her own drug to escape the organization, and then lives with Dr. Agasa under her new name Ai Haibara)[12], and the other members of the Black Organization: Gin, Vodka, Tequila, Calvados, Pisco, Vermouth, Kir, Chianti, Köln, and a mysterious "boss" who has only been mentioned so far.
To maintain his cover, Conan goes to Titan
elementary school (Japanese: Teitan Elementary School (Teitan Shōgakkō?))and has made friends with three children at the school, George Kaminski (Genta Kojima), Mitch Tennison (Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya) and Amy Yeager (Ayumi Yoshida) who form the self-styled Junior Detective League (Detective Boys ( Shōnen Taitei-dan?) in original). Although Conan feels profoundly self conscious playing with them given his true age, the foursome have numerous adventures of their own and the trio have proved capable assistants to the detective for their age.
