Shinichi: http://static.tumblr.com/wf1ktdx/tEllil1fc/shinichi_kudo.jpg

Abilities: Shinichi is a genius with a amazing powers of observation and deduction, but it’s nothing supernatural. He’s good at soccer, has perfect pitch, and can speak English well. In the movies, it’s been shown that he can pilot a helicopter, plane, defuse bombs, shoot guns accurately, and drive a car.

Personality: At first, Conan seems like the ideal child. Bright, gets along with his classmates, and listens to his guardians. However, this changes when he stumbles onto a crime scene. Instead of being affected emotionally in any way by the body, Conan instead starts to look under tables, ask nosy questions, and generally gets in everyone’s way. The odd thing is, some of the things Conan points out to the police actually help in the investigation. But there’s no way a child would know such things, right?

Wrong. Because Conan is actually 17-year-old Kudo Shinichi, whose deduction powress have led him to become cocky and arrogant, as shown at the start of the series. One might find his casual remarks about how many corpses he’s seen morbid and uncaring, but the truth is, Shinichi has a large appreciation for life and can’t understand why people murder. After his shrink, a great chunk of Shinichi’s self-confidence has been knocked away, but his sarcasm and genius still remain. Although he acts the cute child around most people, his real personality shines through with others such as those who know his identity, or the Detective Boys, since he can’t be bothered to act around them. The drastic change in behaviour around adults and his group of merry detectives tends to lead the latter to wonder why “Conan” acts so strange around his guardians.

Shinichi seems to be very protective of those who he has accepted as friends. For example, Mouri Ran, his childhood friend and sweetheart, is the main reason why he is trying to hide his identity, as she could be in trouble if she found out. He ran back into a bus that was about to blow up to pull out Haibara Ai, risking his own life. One might argue that he did this as Haibara was his only chance of getting an antidote, but I believe he did this as he did not like people dying and had subconsciously regarded Haibara as someone close to him.

Despite his intelligence, Shinichi appears to be very dumb about romance. It took Ran’s tears for him to finally confess to her, and even then he had initially been asking her about a case. He is also a Sherlock Holmes fanboy at heart and actually acts his physical age when it comes to his detective idol.

Shinichi’s genius seems to have led to him being unable to understand the emotions of others. This is probably because he is so used to dealing with facts and things set in stone that when it comes to emotions, he is completely thrown off and unable to decipher them. As a result, he did not have many friends as Shinichi, as the only one shown seems to be Ran. Conan seems to have slightly increased his empathy towards others, though not much. He also, ironically, has more friends than he did as Shinichi.

Strengths: -Super smart
-Usually stays calm in dangerous situations
-Has a sense of protectiveness towards friends
-Loves life

Weaknesses: -Dumb about love
-Stubborn
-Easily flustered or annoyed in everyday situations (e.g. Hattori Heiji ruffling his hair)
-Unable to understand other people’s emotions

First Person Sample:
[The feed flickers on to present a small child of six or seven years old, peering at the screen with wide eyes.]

Um, does anyone know where I am? My parents said that I shouldn’t talk to strangers, but if I get lost I should ask someone for help!

[He pauses, and then looks around uneasily, every bit a frightened child.]

And I think I’m really lost! I don’t even remember falling asleep, ‘cause one moment I was with my friends, and then whoosh! I wake up here!

[His face turns back to the screen.] And, and! I really need to get back to Ran-neechan and Kogoro-ojiisan! So can anyone help me go back home?

[The child smiles nervously and the screen turns black.]

Third Person Sample:
Conan turned off the video, opting to stay on the bed for a while as he tried to get his thoughts in order. Who had brought him here? Why? There were also evidently other people around, but he had no idea if they were working with those who had brought him here or in the same situation. There was nothing to be gained from kidnapping a small child, and his lodgings seemed pretty comfortable. That only left one thing…

They had found out about him.

Conan shook his head and pushed himself off the bed, dispelling the negative thoughts from his brain.  There was no sense in staying put while waiting for replies from the rest of the network, even if what was outside the room was dangerous. He shot back a disgusted look at the room as he walked towards the door. It was entirely too childish for him. The books residing on the bookshelves were full of fairytales, no detective stories at all, and there was even a miniature train chugging around in circles on a train track on the floor next to his bed.

At least the walls were dark blue, Conan mused to himself, tiptoeing and straining to reach the entirely too high doorknob. Curse his newfound height. Upon latching onto the doorknob, he gave it a twist and the door opened easily. As Conan stepped outside and turned to close the door, he caught sight of the nameplate resting comfortably on it. The boy heaved a sigh of relief when he noticed that his alias was on the nameplate, and gave a small laugh to himself for doing so.

There’s no way whoever brought me here could know… right?
