−
Kohji Haneda was the only son of a wealthy family. As a talented shogi player, he had once also fought against [[Chikara Katsumata]]. His adoptive younger brother, [[Shukichi Haneda]], deeply respected him and likely changed one of his name characters slightly to honor him. His motto was "I must carry my initial dream through to the end", the same written on a fan that Shukichi now owns. A bishop shogi piece, that he always kept as a good luck charm, was the last piece he moved the first time when he won against his teacher. By the time of his death, he had won four shogi titles and many had high hopes that he would win all seven of the major ones.

Kohji Haneda was a talented shogi player that his "not-related-by-blood"<ref>Shukichi was a {{lang|ja|義理の兄}} to Kohji: an adopted brother or step brother, rather than a blood brother.</ref> brother, [[Shukichi Haneda]], deeply respected. By the time of his death he had won four shogi titles. Many had high hopes that Kohji would win all seven of the major shogi titles.
  
−
Seventeen years ago, he went to the United States for a chess competition that also enjoyed. The night before, in his hotel room, he met wealthy [[Amanda Hughes]], one of his big fans, and felt in love with her bodyguard, [[Rumi Wakasa|Rachel Asaka]]. At the meantime, he realized what happened to Amanda and protect her adoptive daughter from the [[Black Organization]]. After knocked her out with a stun gun, he handed Asaka his good luck charm, that it has a cut on its lower left, and hid her in his bookshelf. When they came in, in order to prevent from checking there, he told [[Rum]] to have seen a piece of news including him gave a speech for [[Renya Karasuma]] thirty years ago. After let one of his man beat him, Rum realized he would not reveal anything about Asaka, so decided to kill him with a [[Silver Bullet (drug)|drug]] developed by the organization. In his last breath, he cut the mirror given to him by his mother to leave his dying message: "CARASUMA".
+
Seventeen years ago, he died under [[Case from 17 years ago|mysterious circumstances]] when in the United States participating in a chess tournament, a game he also enjoyed. [[Ai Haibara]] suggests that Kohji may have been murdered with [[APTX 4869]] since a person with the same name appeared on the list of people killed by the poison. It has been discovered that [[Rum]] may have been involved with his death due to the dying message missing letters that could be arranged to spell "ASACA RUM".

[[Hyoue Kuroda]] wasn't able to save both Amanda and him. Rum tried to clear up the evidence, but they had to run because the police were on their way. [[Tsutomu Akai]] was a friend of his father, who asked him to investigate his son's death. Asaka keeps his good luck charm and, thought of him as a foolish person because he sacrificed himself to protect her, still seeks revenge for both Amanda and him.

=== Murdered Professor Case (Manga: [[Volume 18#Murdered Professor Case|179]], Anime: [[The Girl from the Black Organization and the University Professor Murder Case#Case 2: Murdered Professor Case|129]]) ===
 +
Haibara remembers a list of people that the drug APTX 4869 was used on in the past. She says that all of the other APTX 4869 victims were confirmed dead, except [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]]. On that list was a name, {{nihongo|Kohji Haneda|羽田 浩司}}, which was not relevant to the readers at the time.
 +
 +
=== Shukichi's Envelope Case (Manga: [[Volume 89#Shukichi's Envelope Case|947]], Anime: [[The Marriage Registration's Password|850]]) ===
 +
Kohji was mentioned by [[Shukichi Haneda|Shukichi]] to [[Yumi Miyamoto]] on the phone. Shukichi says that he respected Kohji, and Kohji's motto was "one should stick with one's original plan".
 +
 +
After Shukichi and Yumi's talk, Haibara asks [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] whether he knows the name Kohji Haneda. Conan answers that Kohji was a talented shogi player, but he died under mysterious circumstances when he went to the United States to participate in a chess tournament. Haibara recognizes the name Kohji Haneda as one that was on the [[List of Black Organization related characters#APTX 4869 Victims|list of people killed by APTX 4869]].
 +
 +
=== Kohji Haneda's Death Case (Manga: [[Volume 89#The Clenched Scissors and the Clipped Letters|948]]-[[Volume 90#The Clenched Scissors and the Clipped Letters|950]], Anime: [[Just Like a 17 Years Old Crime Scene|861-862]]) ===
 +
Conan investigates on the internet and finds that someone has been uploading information on Kohji's death. Kohji went to the United States to participate in a chess tournament seventeen years ago. The night before the tournament, he was attacked by someone and died at a hotel where he stayed. The room was ransacked, and he resisted. The cause of death is unknown. On the same day and at the same hotel as him, a wealthy person named [[Amanda Hughes]] died as well. She was a big fan of Kohji. Unlike Kohji's room, Amanda's room was clean when she died. Amanda's bodyguard, Asaka, went missing and still can't be found. Agasa reveals that a similar murder has happened recently so they put the investigation on hold. After Conan and Subaru solve that case, they decipher the meaning of the missing letters on the mirror of Kohji's room. Kohji's dying message from seventeen years ago was "ASACA RUM", so Rum may be involved in their deaths.
 +
 +
Since the dying message was "P T O N", the answer to it must contain all of the missing letters of "U MASCARA"<br>
 +
PUT ON MASCARA - P T ON = U MASCARA<br>
 +
U MASCARA - ASACA (for Asaka) = U M R<br>
 +
Which can be rearranged to make RUM<br>
 +
making the answer "ASACA RUM"
 +
(However, it's revealed later that the dying message is actually "CARASUMA")
 +
 +
=== Soul Detective Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 90#Soul Detective Murder Case|951-953]], Anime: [[Soul Detective Murder Case|863-864]]) ===

When Conan and Kogoro go to meet with him at a hotel they find him dead and that [[Masumi Sera|Masumi]] and [[Mary Sera|Mary]] have mysteriously moved in to the next hotel room. Both Masumi and Mary seem to react to Kohji's name when Kogoro says it.

 +
 +
=== Edible Wild Plants Collecting Case (Manga: [[Volume 97#Edible Wild Plants Collecting Case|1032-1034]], Anime: [[Picking Wild Plants and Clovers|1011]]) ===
 +
Rumi Wakasa remembers back to when Kohji said, "With the watchtower bishop, you can be sure of making a good move", while holding up a shogi bishop. Then he says, "So they're going to kill me despite that?" She then remembers him dead, with some sort of fluid (blood?) pouring out of his mouth, and she calls him a "foolish person".
 +
 +
=== Trapped at Hatoyama Farm (Manga: [[Volume 99#Trapped at Hatoyama Farm|1051-1054]], Anime: [[The Spark That Fell on the Ranch|1053]]) ===

 +
 +
=== Chess Tournament Murder Case (Manga: [[Volume 104#Chess Tournament Murder Case|1103-1109]], Anime: TBD) ===
 +
<spoiler>Seventeen years ago, Kohji went to USA for a chess competition. The night before the competition happened, Amanda Hughes, a fan of Kohji, visited and played chess with him. Amanda introduced Rachel Asaka, her bodyguard, to Kohji. Kohji said she was his ideal girlfriend and he also pointed out that Asaka's right eye's disease is Amaurosis Fugax.
 +
 +
Worrying something happened, Amanda lied to Asaka that she forgot a horse chess piece in Kohji's room and asked her to go there immediately as a favor. At the meantime, Kohji realized what happened, he asked Asaka to hide and he acted like he didn't know anything when the organization visited his room to find "an Asian-looking woman". Kohji persuaded Asaka to stay in his room for her safety but Asaka didn't want Kohji to be killed for helping her. Kohji knocked Asaka out with a stun gun and hid her in his bookshelf. Before getting unconscious, Asaka warned Kohji that the bad guys would kill him, he handed her his good luck charm - a bishop shogi piece and said "With the watchtower bishop, you can be sure of making a good move.I must carry my initial dream through to the end. (A better translate from its Kanji/Chinese characters meaning)". When the bad guys came, Rum noticed the books in bookshelf must have been touched so he wanted to check, Kohji told Rum he saw a piece of news including him gave a speech for Renya Karasuma thirty years ago to prevent him from checking the bookshelf, Rum let one of his man beat Kohji. Realizing Kohji would not reveal anything about Asaka, Rum decided to kill him. In his last breath, Kohji cut the mirror given to him by his mother to leave his dying message: CARASUMA.
 +
 +
Kuroda quickly ran into Kohji's room as Amanda had a meeting with Kohji that night and only found Kohji's dead body. The only thing he was able to do was take some pictures at the crime scenes. Asaka woke up and thought Kuroda was the one killed Kohji, she attacked him until she was knocked out. Rum then realized Kohji hid Asaka in the bookshelf and noticed the bathroom was messed up badly, he tried to clear up the evidence but the bad guys had to run because the police were on their way.</spoiler>

== Relationship analysis ==
 +
=== Shukichi Haneda ===
 +
Shukichi is a non-blood brother of Kohji, either by adoption, marriage, or some other means. Shukichi deeply respected him and likely changed one of his name characters slightly to honor Kohji. However the story of their relation is unknown. It's possible it's related to Tsutomu's involvement in Kohji's death.
 +
 +
=== Shuichi Akai ===
 +
A relationship between Kohji and [[Shuichi Akai]] is unknown, but the case of Kohji's death made Shuichi an [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] agent.<ref name="file948"/>
 +
 +
=== Tsutomu Akai ===
 +
[[Tsutomu Akai]] is related to Kohji's death. He was a friend of Kohji's father, who asked him to investigate his son's death.<ref name="file949">[[Volume 90#Kohji Haneda's Death Case|File 949: Sweet Scent (Volume 90)]]</ref>
 +
 +
=== Masumi Sera ===
 +
[[Masumi Sera]] was very surprised when [[Kogoro Mouri|Kogoro]] said the name Kohji Haneda.<ref name="file952"/>
 +
 +
=== Mary Sera ===
 +
[[Mary Sera]] was very surprised when Kogoro said the name Kohji Haneda.<ref name="file952"/>
 +
 +
=== Amanda Hughes ===
 +
Amanda Hughes was a fan of Kohji and has been in contact with him. She was murdered the same day as Kohji, and evidences proves that she had been in his hotel room before the murder. Haibara suspects that it might have been their relationship that led to Kohji's death.
 +
 +
=== Rumi Wakasa ===
 +
Rumi Wakasa/Rachel Asaka first met Kohji when she accompanied Amanda seventeen years ago. Kohji said she is his ideal girlfriend and it's implied that she also has feelings for him. She thought of him as a "foolish person" because he sacrificed himself to protect her from the Black Organization. She keeps Kohji's good luck charm, the shogi bishop, which was handed by him and has memories of Kohji hiding her in his bookshelf "Huh? Why did I help you? I decided to do so. Do something as I originally planned". She still seeks revenge for both Amanda and Kohji's murders.
 +
 +
=== Hyoue Kuroda ===
 +
Kuroda involved in the death of Kohji seventeen years ago, as he was supposed to meet Amanda seventeen years ago, but he wasn't able to save both Amanda and Kohji's lives from the Black Organization. He took some pictures in the crime scenes and a car accident put him into a coma after trying to drive away from the Black Organization

Shukichi's given name is spelled {{lang|ja|秀𠮷}}, with the final "kichi" kanji also including the radical for earth's do. This 𠮷 for kichi is a very rare variant; 99% of the time kichi is written as {{lang|ja|吉}} with {{lang|ja|士}} (man/samurai's ''shi'') instead.

Kohji Haneda (羽田 浩司 Haneda Kōji?) was a professional shogi player and Shukichi Haneda's non-blood older brother in the manga and anime franchise Detective Conan.

Background

Kohji Haneda was a talented shogi player that his "not-related-by-blood"[2] brother, Shukichi Haneda, deeply respected. By the time of his death he had won four shogi titles. Many had high hopes that Kohji would win all seven of the major shogi titles.

Seventeen years ago, he died under mysterious circumstances when in the United States participating in a chess tournament, a game he also enjoyed. Ai Haibara suggests that Kohji may have been murdered with APTX 4869 since a person with the same name appeared on the list of people killed by the poison. It has been discovered that Rum may have been involved with his death due to the dying message missing letters that could be arranged to spell "ASACA RUM".

Personality

Kohji's motto was "I must carry my initial dream through to the end" (初志貫徹 shoshi kantetsu?).[3] The same motto was written on a fan that Shukichi now owns.

Appearance

Plot overview

Murdered Professor Case (Manga: 179, Anime: 129)

Haibara remembers a list of people that the drug APTX 4869 was used on in the past. She says that all of the other APTX 4869 victims were confirmed dead, except Shinichi. On that list was a name, Kohji Haneda (羽田 浩司 ?), which was not relevant to the readers at the time.

Shukichi's Envelope Case (Manga: 947, Anime: 850)

Kohji was mentioned by Shukichi to Yumi Miyamoto on the phone. Shukichi says that he respected Kohji, and Kohji's motto was "one should stick with one's original plan".

After Shukichi and Yumi's talk, Haibara asks Conan whether he knows the name Kohji Haneda. Conan answers that Kohji was a talented shogi player, but he died under mysterious circumstances when he went to the United States to participate in a chess tournament. Haibara recognizes the name Kohji Haneda as one that was on the list of people killed by APTX 4869.

Kohji Haneda's Death Case (Manga: 948-950, Anime: 861-862)

Conan investigates on the internet and finds that someone has been uploading information on Kohji's death. Kohji went to the United States to participate in a chess tournament seventeen years ago. The night before the tournament, he was attacked by someone and died at a hotel where he stayed. The room was ransacked, and he resisted. The cause of death is unknown. On the same day and at the same hotel as him, a wealthy person named Amanda Hughes died as well. She was a big fan of Kohji. Unlike Kohji's room, Amanda's room was clean when she died. Amanda's bodyguard, Asaka, went missing and still can't be found. Agasa reveals that a similar murder has happened recently so they put the investigation on hold. After Conan and Subaru solve that case, they decipher the meaning of the missing letters on the mirror of Kohji's room. Kohji's dying message from seventeen years ago was "ASACA RUM", so Rum may be involved in their deaths.

Since the dying message was "P T O N", the answer to it must contain all of the missing letters of "U MASCARA"
PUT ON MASCARA - P T ON = U MASCARA
U MASCARA - ASACA (for Asaka) = U M R
Which can be rearranged to make RUM
making the answer "ASACA RUM" (However, it's revealed later that the dying message is actually "CARASUMA")

Soul Detective Murder Case (Manga: 951-953, Anime: 863-864)

Kogoro is put in contact with a Soul Detective who wishes to reveal some information about the Kohji Haneda case. When Conan and Kogoro go to meet with him at a hotel they find him dead and that Masumi and Mary have mysteriously moved in to the next hotel room. Both Masumi and Mary seem to react to Kohji's name when Kogoro says it.

Burning Tent Murder Case (Manga: 987, Anime: 909)

Kohji's dead body.

The superintendent Hyoue Kuroda is shown looking at the article about Kohji's death and drawing a relation between Rumi Wakasa and Kohji.

Missing Maria Higashio Case (Manga: 1008, Anime: 942)

Yusaku Kudo interprets Kohji Haneda's dying message differently. He thinks "RUM" and "ASACA" form one single name: "CARASUMA". There is a connection between Renya Karasuma and the organization.

Edible Wild Plants Collecting Case (Manga: 1032-1034, Anime: 1011)

Rumi Wakasa remembers back to when Kohji said, "With the watchtower bishop, you can be sure of making a good move", while holding up a shogi bishop. Then he says, "So they're going to kill me despite that?" She then remembers him dead, with some sort of fluid (blood?) pouring out of his mouth, and she calls him a "foolish person".

Trapped at Hatoyama Farm (Manga: 1051-1054, Anime: 1053)

Amuro picked up the shogi piece that Rumi dropped by accident, which is a bishop and recalled that the murdered Kohji always kept it as a good luck charm, which was missing at the crime scene of the murder.

Chess Tournament Murder Case (Manga: 1103-1109, Anime: TBD)

Appellations

Relationship analysis

Shukichi Haneda

Shukichi is a non-blood brother of Kohji, either by adoption, marriage, or some other means. Shukichi deeply respected him and likely changed one of his name characters slightly to honor Kohji. However the story of their relation is unknown. It's possible it's related to Tsutomu's involvement in Kohji's death.

Shuichi Akai

A relationship between Kohji and Shuichi Akai is unknown, but the case of Kohji's death made Shuichi an FBI agent.[4]

Tsutomu Akai

Tsutomu Akai is related to Kohji's death. He was a friend of Kohji's father, who asked him to investigate his son's death.[9]

Masumi Sera

Masumi Sera was very surprised when Kogoro said the name Kohji Haneda.[5]

Mary Sera

Mary Sera was very surprised when Kogoro said the name Kohji Haneda.[5]

Amanda Hughes

Amanda Hughes was a fan of Kohji and has been in contact with him. She was murdered the same day as Kohji, and evidences proves that she had been in his hotel room before the murder. Haibara suspects that it might have been their relationship that led to Kohji's death.

Rumi Wakasa

Rumi Wakasa/Rachel Asaka first met Kohji when she accompanied Amanda seventeen years ago. Kohji said she is his ideal girlfriend and it's implied that she also has feelings for him. She thought of him as a "foolish person" because he sacrificed himself to protect her from the Black Organization. She keeps Kohji's good luck charm, the shogi bishop, which was handed by him and has memories of Kohji hiding her in his bookshelf "Huh? Why did I help you? I decided to do so. Do something as I originally planned". She still seeks revenge for both Amanda and Kohji's murders.

Hyoue Kuroda

Kuroda involved in the death of Kohji seventeen years ago, as he was supposed to meet Amanda seventeen years ago, but he wasn't able to save both Amanda and Kohji's lives from the Black Organization. He took some pictures in the crime scenes and a car accident put him into a coma after trying to drive away from the Black Organization

Name origin

Maybe the name Kohji Haneda (羽田 浩司 Haneda Kōji?) comes from Yoshiharu Habu (羽生 善治 Habu Yoshiharu?) and Kōji Tanigawa (谷川 浩司 Tanigawa Kōji?), real-life shogi players.

Shukichi Haneda (羽田 秀𠮷 Haneda Shūkichi?) may have changed his name slightly to honor the late Kohji Haneda. Kohji's given name is 浩司, and the first character's radicals are (氵 ノ 土 口). 土 is earth's do. Shukichi's given name is spelled 秀𠮷, with the final "kichi" kanji also including the radical for earth's do. This 𠮷 for kichi is a very rare variant; 99% of the time kichi is written as 吉 with 士 (man/samurai's shi) instead.

Trivia

  • In episode 129, furigana (Japanese reading aid) of his surname is Hada (ハダ ?).
  • Gosho Aoyama mentioned there was "red herring" in volume 18[10], the same volume the list of APTX 4869 victims appeared in.
  • A (so far unconfirmed) source gives the names of his father and mother as Yasuharu and Ichiyo, respectively.
  • His character design is very similar Gohan's in the manga and anime franchise Dragon Ball.
  • In file 1052 the bishop that Kohji always kept it as a good luck charm was the last piece he moved the first time when he won against his teacher. It has a cut on its lower left. He gave it to Rumi.
  • His Put On Mascara mirror was given to him by his mother.
