16-17<ref>Kaito's age is never stated in the manga, but due to his high school grade he is between 16-17 and likely celebrated a birthday behind the scenes. The anime [[Episode 219]] places his age as 17, but the intro-box ages are in violation of manga canon (Shinichi is aged at 17 also, when he should be 16 due to the clock tower case occurring pre-canon).

[[File:Kid seducing Ran.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Kid seduces Ran by tricking her into believing he is really Shinichi]]
 +
In both civilian and costumed life, Kaitou Kid is a compulsive magician who is drawn to any challenge just for the sheer thrill of overcoming all hazards in the end. Kid is infamous for having a rather overconfident (close to the point of arrogance) attitude, always preferring to create as big a bang as possible. He loves nothing more than leading the police in wild goose chases, letting them get within a hair's breadth of catching him, before exiting one way or another. Seemingly having a soft-spot for his fans, there has been more than one occasion when Kid has refused to show when the police tried to bar the general public from witnessing his act. Generally, when these instances occur, one of Kid's tricks rely, one way or another, on his ability to blend in with a crowd.
 +
 
 +
Kaitou Kid is also quite a charmer, seeming to always know just what to say to the ladies to leave them speechless. Kid hates to see others get hurt, and he never hesitates in leaping to rescue someone, whether physically or mentally. Despite his low reputation in some quarters, Kid does have a sense of honor, in as much as that he decides to leave the loot behind if it has no further purpose other than having challenged his trickster skills, doesn't contain Pandora, or when a more humane background stands behind their existence. These qualities are some of the reasons why he and [[Conan Edogawa|Conan]] occasionally end up as allies in a common cause.
 +
 
 +
For some as yet unexplained reason, Kaito suffers from a severe case of ichthyophobia (fear of fish).

Kid has dark brown hair (black in Magic Kaito 1412) with fringe that ends just above his eyes, but the rest of his hair is normally covered by a white top hat with a blue ribbon band. When dressed in his normal outfit, his right eye is covered by a white monocle that has a dangling green charm with a white clover imprinted on it. Kid's outfit consists of a white suit jacket on top of a blue shirt with a red tie and white dress slacks. The white [[Hang Glider Cape]] is attached to the jacket at Kid's shoulders. Kid wears blue socks with white Oxford style shoes with white soles. In his original appearances Kid wore white loafer type shoes.

Kid is infamous for having a rather arrogant attitude, always preferring to create as big a bang as possible. He loves nothing more then leading the police in wild goose chases, letting them get within a hair of catching him before exiting one way or another.

Kid hates to see others get hurt, and never hesitates in leaping to rescue someone, whether physically or mentally.

Kid has been seen wearing black shirts and pants along with a black hat to help cover his face, usually when doing information gathering for heists or when he has his "audience" at his heists looking elsewhere. Apart from these two outfits, Kid is a master of disguise and has been seen disguising as several people throughout the course of ''Detective Conan'' and ''Magic Kaito''.

Since Akako's first appearance in Volume 1, she's attempted to get Kaito to fall head over heels for her using whatever means necessary, including using a voodoo doll and hurting him in the process. Akako's obsession with Kaito comes from Kaitou Kid, whom she realizes is Kaito, being the only man on Earth able to resist her. Despite Akako injuring Kaito during their first confrontation, Kaito as Kid behaves like a complete gentleman and encourages Akako to be herself in order to get someone to like her instead of forcing them through witchcraft.<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Magic Kaito |volume=1 |publisher=Shogakukan |date=1988-05-15 |isbn=4-09-122081-9 |chapter=The Scarlet Temptress |language=Japanese |location=Tokyo |page= 180}}</ref> Akako grows to have great concern for Kaito as evidenced by her warning Kaito<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Magic Kaito |volume=3 |publisher=Shogakukan |date=1994-10-15 |isbn=4-09-122083-5 |chapter=Akako's Delivery Service |language=Japanese |location=Tokyo |page= 93-95}}</ref> against going to a heist and later assisting Kaitou Kid to escape safely from the heist that she had foreseen him being captured at.<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Magic Kaito |volume=3 |publisher=Shogakukan |date=1994-10-15 |isbn=4-09-122083-5 |chapter=Akako's Delivery Service |language=Japanese |location=Tokyo |page= 100-103}}</ref> In Volume 2, Akako openly states she likes Kaito in front of Aoko.<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Magic Kaito |volume=2 |publisher=Shogakukan |date=1988-11-15 |isbn=4-09-122082-7 |chapter=Let Go of Him |language=Japanese |location=Tokyo |page= 11}}</ref>

The relationship between Hakuba and Kaito is a rather tense one; since Hakuba convinced himself early on that Kaito was instead Kid, and during the first few volumes he's constantly throwing out offhand comments that show his suspicion. However, later on in the manga, we have a small scene where Hakuba calls Kaito from Paris in order to give him some information on 'Chat Noir', a dangerous, fellow gem thief trying to outshine Kid.<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Magic Kaito |volume=4 |publisher=Shogakukan |date=1994-10-15 |isbn=4-09-122093-5 |chapter=Golden Eye Part 1 |language=Japanese |location=Tokyo |page= 18}}</ref> Though Kaito continues to vehemently deny being Kid, Hakuba gives him the information anyways, ending the conversation with, "Do your best at least. I don't want to see you lose to anyone before I capture you myself". Whether or not that was his actual motive, or if he was merely concerned for Kaito's well being, is unknown.

Kid seems to find Conan a threat to his plans, and once he has knocked out Conan to prevent him from finding out the trick in the theft <ref>Anime Episode 586: The Kirin's Horn That Vanished in the Dark</ref>. Conan doesn't not seem to like Kid, saying once "He's only a thief that uses magic" <ref>Anime Episode 515: Kaitou Kid's Teleportation Magic</ref>. However, if necessary, the two can put their rivalry aside (for a little while) and work together <ref>OVA 10: Kid in Trap Island</ref>.

In the movies, Kid is aware that Conan is Shinichi, but how he knows this is unknown. Since movies cannot be considered canon, it's unclear whether Kid knows Conan is Shinichi in the official manga.

== Name origin ==
 
== Name origin ==
 +
Kaitou Kid was originally known as "Kaitou 1412" ("kaitou" meaning "phantom thief" in Japanese"), but the exact origin of that name is unknown. According to what Sonoko told Ran, the "1412" part is rumored to come from the secret number that may have been given to him by an international organization like the FBI, the CIA, or Interpol. The information about the number was supposedly leaked to the media, leading to that number being used to describe the thief.<ref>File 156</ref>
 +
 +
Sometime later, a reporter scribbled the number 1412, referencing the thief, in a hastily-written note. This note was seen by [[Yusaku Kudo]], who misread the numbers as "KID." Thus, Yusaku was the one who invented the name Kaitou Kid.<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Detective Conan |volume=55 |publisher=Shogakukan |date=1996-18-01 |isbn=4-09-120628-X|chapter=File 3 |language=Japanese |location=Tokyo |page=151}}</ref>

It has been suggested that the organization in question may actually be the Black Organization in Detective Conan, but this theory has yet to be proven. The member of the organization that claimed responsibility for killing Toichi eight years ago is referred to as "Snake"<ref>{{cite book |last=Aoyama |first=Gosho |title=Magic Kaito |volume=3 |publisher=Shogakukan |date=1994-10-15 |isbn=4-09-122093-5 |chapter=Blue Birthday |language=Japanese |location=Tokyo |page=140 }}</ref>, a nickname that doesn't fit in with the codenames of the Black Organization, suggesting they are two separate groups. This though may not be the case if Snake refers to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snake_wine Snake Wine], but because Kaitou Kid's origins have yet to be reexplained within the Detective Conan story, this is only speculation. It does not help that in Snake's second appearance during the ''Crystal Mother'' heist he is referred to as "Jackal", yet another name that doesn't fit with the Organization's codenames.

He alway leaves a letter that states his plans and always has his signature (his face in abstract)

== Trivia ==
 +
* {{nihongo|'''Kuroba'''|黒羽 or クロバ|}} (Kaito and Toichi's family name) is also a way to pronounce {{nihongo|"clover"|クロバー|kurobaa}} in Japanese (the only difference is a long vowel). This is most likely why a clover appears on Kaitou Kid's monocle. Additionally, in the manga's second chapter Kid disguises himself as an old man named Count Clover. Also, Gosho's [[Animal_Crossing_promotional_hints|Animal Crossings]] characters are named after the playing card suits, with "Clover" introducing itself as Kaito Kuroba and dressing as Kaitou Kid (except with a black top hat).
 +
* Kaitou Kid was clearly modeled after the fictional gentleman thief Arsène Lupin, by French author Maurice Leblanc. In the French-speaking world, Lupin is as famous as Sherlock Holmes is in the English-speaking world. Interestingly, Holmes appeared in several Arsène Lupin stories; however, after Conan Doyle protested due to copyright laws, Leblanc changed the name to "Herlock Sholmes."
 +
* Kaitou Kid signs his heist notes with a drawing of his face in abstract. He re-draws this insignia for each note, so that police will know that it was truly him and not an imitator using a scanned copy of a former insignia.
 +
* He made a cameo in [[A Challenge Letter to Shinichi Kudo ~Prologue Until Goodbye~]], in his [[Hang Glider Cape]] when the bomb explodes in mid-air.
 +
* In [[The Last Wizard of the Century]], the police attribute 134 cases of thievery to Kaitou Kid, fifteen of which have been overseas including America, France, Germany, and 12 other places. In total, 152 gems have been stolen with a net worth of 38,925,000,000 yen but this is obviously not considered canonical in the main story of Detective and Kaito Kid.
 +
* Akako Koizumi once dressed up as the Kaitou Kid to trick [[Saguru Hakuba]] into thinking Kaito was innocent. During her escape with the target jewel, she screamed in a revealingly girly manner, causing Aoko to deduce that the Kaitou Kid must be a homosexual.
 +
* In both the Japanese and English dub, Kaito Kuroba/Kaitou Kid shares the same voice actor as that of Shinichi Kudo.
 +
* Kaitou Kid apparently knows how to drive as shown when he was disguised as Kogoro Mouri in Volume 30: Sunset Manor Case.

Kaitou Kid (怪盗キッド Kaitō Kiddo?, lit. Phantom Thief Kid) is the secret identity of the main character in the manga and anime franchise Magic Kaito, and a recurring character in the manga and anime franchise Detective Conan.

Background

Kaitou Kid first appeared 18 years ago in Paris, a herald to the quiet retirement of the master thief, Phantom Lady.[5]

Toichi Kuroba

Main article: Toichi Kuroba
Toichi Kuroba.jpg

Toichi Kuroba (黒羽 盗一 Kuroba Tōichi?) was secretly the original Kaitou Kid. Toichi as Kid was the greatest jewel thief in Japan as well as a world-renowned stage magician until he was murdered in a fake magic accident. Sometime prior to his death, Toichi had his attendant and friend Konosuke Jii promise him that he would never tell Kaito about his thieving.[6] A thief herself, his wife Chikage Kuroba was well aware of his double life, having witnessed the inception of Kaitou Kid.[5] Toichi ceased to be Kaitou Kid only upon his death in a fake magic accident arranged by a mysterious rival group.

Konosuke Jii

Konosuke Jii (寺井 黄之助 Jii Kōnosuke?) temporarily portrayed Kaitou Kid eight years following Toichi's death in an effort to lure out Toichi's murderers. Jii ceases being Kid and becomes Kaito's assistant when Kaito dons the mantle of Kaitou Kid himself. Since then, Jii has occasionally been a decoy Kid on Kaito's behalf, but more commonly he assists on heists in other ways.

Kaito Kuroba

Main article: Kaito Kuroba
Kaito Kuroba.jpg

Kaito Kuroba (黒羽 快斗 Kuroba Kaito?) is the current Kaitou Kid. Kaito is a second-year student at Ekoda High School Class 2-B alongside his childhood friend Aoko Nakamori, the witch Akako Koizumi, and transfer student detective Saguru Hakuba. Kaito discovers his father's identity as the original Kaitou Kid after eight years following his death thanks to a secret room inside his house as well as talking with his father's attendant and friend, Konosuke Jii. Wanting to pick up where Jii left off, Kaito continues to be Kaitou Kid in an effort to lure out his father's murderers by making Kid a world-famous thief once again. It isn't until the Blue Birthday heist that the murderers appear and reveal that they are searching for the doublet red-colored gem Pandora, said to shed tears of immortality during the passing of a particular comet. Upon realizing the organization's aim and that his father was killed for his refusal to aid them in retrieving Pandora, Kaito vows as Kaitou Kid to find the Pandora gem first and shatter it into pieces.[7] Kaito's mother is aware that Kaito discovered Toichi's secret room and has taken up the mantle of Kaitou Kid.[6]

Personality

Toichi as Kid

Toichi Kuroba as Kaitou Kid

Not much is given about Toichi as Kaitou Kid. However, we do know that at some point in time, a dark organization forced him to steal gems to find Pandora. His refusal led to his death in a "magic accident."

Jii as Kid

After the death of Toichi, Jii lived by himself. Over the course of eight years, he grew angrier and angrier until he donned the costume of Kaitou Kid in order to lure out the organization that killed Toichi. He was only dressed as Kid twice before Kaito took over.

Kaito as Kid

Kid seduces Ran by tricking her into believing he is really Shinichi

In both civilian and costumed life, Kaitou Kid is a compulsive magician who is drawn to any challenge just for the sheer thrill of overcoming all hazards in the end. Kid is infamous for having a rather overconfident (close to the point of arrogance) attitude, always preferring to create as big a bang as possible. He loves nothing more than leading the police in wild goose chases, letting them get within a hair's breadth of catching him, before exiting one way or another. Seemingly having a soft-spot for his fans, there has been more than one occasion when Kid has refused to show when the police tried to bar the general public from witnessing his act. Generally, when these instances occur, one of Kid's tricks rely, one way or another, on his ability to blend in with a crowd.

Kaitou Kid is also quite a charmer, seeming to always know just what to say to the ladies to leave them speechless. Kid hates to see others get hurt, and he never hesitates in leaping to rescue someone, whether physically or mentally. Despite his low reputation in some quarters, Kid does have a sense of honor, in as much as that he decides to leave the loot behind if it has no further purpose other than having challenged his trickster skills, doesn't contain Pandora, or when a more humane background stands behind their existence. These qualities are some of the reasons why he and Conan occasionally end up as allies in a common cause.

For some as yet unexplained reason, Kaito suffers from a severe case of ichthyophobia (fear of fish).

Appellations

Appearance

Kaito Kuroba as Kaitou Kid

Toichi as Kid

The classic Kaitou Kid outfit was originally developed for one of his stage performances to honor Arsène Lupin, but he decided to use it as his thief outfit after saving Phantom Lady.

Jii as Kid

Jii donned the costume of Kaitou Kid, but used a smiling mask, in order to lure out the organization that killed Toichi. He was only dressed as Kid twice before Kaito took over.

Kaito as Kid

Kid has dark brown hair (black in Magic Kaito 1412) with fringe that ends just above his eyes, but the rest of his hair is normally covered by a white top hat with a blue ribbon band. When dressed in his normal outfit, his right eye is covered by a white monocle that has a dangling green charm with a white clover imprinted on it. Kid's outfit consists of a white suit jacket on top of a blue shirt with a red tie and white dress slacks. The white Hang Glider Cape is attached to the jacket at Kid's shoulders. Kid wears blue socks with white Oxford style shoes with white soles. In his original appearances Kid wore white loafer type shoes.

Kid has been seen wearing black shirts and pants along with a black hat to help cover his face, usually when doing information gathering for heists or when he has his "audience" at his heists looking elsewhere. Apart from these two outfits, Kid is a master of disguise and has been seen disguising as several people throughout the course of Detective Conan and Magic Kaito.

At several instances, it has been demonstrated that Kid shares a close natural likeness with Shinichi Kudo.[35] This, on occasion (particularly in the non-canon appearances), allows him to pass himself off as Shinichi whenever needed, without requiring a special disguise.[36][37][38][39]

List of disguises used

Character popularity

  • eBookJapan held a character popularity poll from April 12, 2011 to May 12, 2011 in which readers of Detective Conan (international included) could vote for their favorite character. Kid placed 1st in the poll with 1,460 votes out of the 5,883 that were cast.[63]
  • Kid placed 2nd in the results of a poll ranking the top 3 "ikemen" ("good-looking men") of the series aired during the promotional special for The Lost Ship in the Sky.[64]
  • In honor of the release of the 15th movie, Quarter of Silence, the official Conan movie website held a popularity poll for the top 10 Detective Conan characters. Kaito Kuroba/Kaitou Kid placed 2nd out of 10 with 18.99% of the votes cast.[65]
  • In honor of the release of the 800th manga chapter, Shonen Sunday held a popularity poll/contest containing 91 Detective Conan characters to choose from. Kaito Kuroba/Kaitou Kid placed 2nd overall with 1,696 votes.[66]

Name origin

Kaitou Kid was originally known as "Kaitou 1412" ("kaitou" meaning "phantom thief" in Japanese"), but the exact origin of that name is unknown. According to what Sonoko told Ran, the "1412" part is rumored to come from the secret number that may have been given to him by an international organization like the FBI, the CIA, or Interpol. The information about the number was supposedly leaked to the media, leading to that number being used to describe the thief.[67]

Sometime later, a reporter scribbled the number 1412, referencing the thief, in a hastily-written note. This note was seen by Yusaku Kudo, who misread the numbers as "KID." Thus, Yusaku was the one who invented the name Kaitou Kid.[68]

Quotes

Of Kaito Kid

“ Smiles and laughter are always good, but never forget your Poker Face. „
“ A thief is a creative artist who takes his prey in style... But a detective is nothing more than a critic, who follows our footsteps... „
“ You are right. I am not a detective, but a thief. And stealing is what thieves do best, even if it's a person's heart. „
“ Better not.. Just because you don't know what's in it, and want to open Pandora's box, because if you know what's inside the box before you open it, it won't be interesting at all! „
“ It's better trusting someone than to die doubting people altogether. „
“ Magic isn't real. There's always a way to explain it. „
“ A thief will only live by stealing, would you mind if I steal your heart?

(Kid talking to Ran in The Lost Ship in the Sky)

„
“ See you later, maybe next time we can meet under the moonlight. „
“ I'm different from a thief that wears all black. I'm bold and flamboyant; I'm Kaitou Kid! „
“ There are things that shall remain a mystery. „
“ Everyone is the main character of their own life. „

About Kaito Kid

Conan: Yes, he's clever and cunning. You can't deal with him by ordinary means. 		„

  • Kaitou Kid's insignia, left in every notice to ensure it's from the Phantom thief.

  • Conan mentioning during the The Private Eyes' Requiem intro that Kaitou Kid is one of the few people that knows his true identity in the movies.

  • A bird Kaitou Kid used to listen in to conversations in The Last Wizard of the Century and Magician of the Silver Sky. Also by Conan saving the bird, Kaitou in the 3rd Movie returned the favor by saving his true identity from being revealed to by Ran.

Trivia

  • Kuroba (黒羽 or クロバ ?) (Kaito and Toichi's family name) is also a way to pronounce "clover" (クロバー kurobaa?) in Japanese (the only difference is a long vowel). This is most likely why a clover appears on Kaitou Kid's monocle. Additionally, in the manga's second chapter Kid disguises himself as an old man named Count Clover. Also, Gosho's Animal Crossings characters are named after the playing card suits, with "Clover" introducing itself as Kaito Kuroba and dressing as Kaitou Kid (except with a black top hat).
  • Kaitou Kid was clearly modeled after the fictional gentleman thief Arsène Lupin, by French author Maurice Leblanc. In the French-speaking world, Lupin is as famous as Sherlock Holmes is in the English-speaking world. Interestingly, Holmes appeared in several Arsène Lupin stories; however, after Conan Doyle protested due to copyright laws, Leblanc changed the name to "Herlock Sholmes."
  • Kaitou Kid signs his heist notes with a drawing of his face in abstract. He re-draws this insignia for each note, so that police will know that it was truly him and not an imitator using a scanned copy of a former insignia.
  • He made a cameo in A Challenge Letter to Shinichi Kudo ~Prologue Until Goodbye~, in his Hang Glider Cape when the bomb explodes in mid-air.
  • In The Last Wizard of the Century, the police attribute 134 cases of thievery to Kaitou Kid, fifteen of which have been overseas including America, France, Germany, and 12 other places. In total, 152 gems have been stolen with a net worth of 38,925,000,000 yen but this is obviously not considered canonical in the main story of Detective and Kaito Kid.
  • Akako Koizumi once dressed up as the Kaitou Kid to trick Saguru Hakuba into thinking Kaito was innocent. During her escape with the target jewel, she screamed in a revealingly girly manner, causing Aoko to deduce that the Kaitou Kid must be a homosexual.
  • In both the Japanese and English dub, Kaito Kuroba/Kaitou Kid shares the same voice actor as that of Shinichi Kudo.
  • Kaitou Kid apparently knows how to drive as shown when he was disguised as Kogoro Mouri in Volume 30: Sunset Manor Case.
