'''[[Wataru Takagi]]''' and '''[[Miwako Sato]]''' are two officers working under Inspector Megure in the first division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, where Sato is currently Takagi's superior. As the story progresses, they start developing strong mutual romantic feelings for one another.

[[Ran Mouri]] is Shinichi's childhood friend and canonical love interest. They have known each other since kindergarten <ref>[[Volume 55#File_569_-_The_Mischievous_Boy|Volume 55, Files 569-572]]</ref> and have been playmates since, which caused some censure from Ran’s mother, [[Eri Kisaki]].They are very close to each other; as they have always been together since their childhood years all the way to their second year of high school. Both Ran and Shinichi have somewhat of a love-hate relationship before Shinichi 'disappeared'. However when Ran meets Conan (who is Shinichi, although she's unaware of this fact), she tells him that she has been in love with Shinichi for a long time- probably since they first met, which of course causes Shinichi/Conan to blush.
+
Despite being heavily admired by many male colleagues around her, especially Inspector [[Shiratori]] in the beginning, Sato still cares and worries about Takagi deeply, most notably during situations where his safety was put at risk. She also finds in Takagi traits that remind her of her late colleague, [[Jinpei Matsuda]], whom she had become romantically inclined towards in the brief time they've known each other. Takagi, on the other hand, respects Sato as his senior and loves her sincerely as a girlfriend, even to the point of willingly sacrificing his own life just to keep her away from all dangers.<ref>Manga: [[Volume 64]], File 673: "The Common Pattern"; Anime: [[The Scar that Evokes the Past]].</ref> After going through numerous difficulties and challenges, in some later cases, their relationship was hinted to have entered a sexual level; however, the true nature of this development has yet to be confirmed.<ref>'''Hints of sexual relationship:'''
 +
* [[Volume 76]], File 806, Page 6 ([[The Life-Threatening Broadcast of Love]]): Sato accidentally reveals that she and Takagi have been sleeping together, and blushed awkwardly in response to the Detective Boys' speculation.
 +
* [[Volume 82]], File 867, Page 6 ([[The Case of the Lucky Calico]]): Takagi accidentally reveals that he has slept on Sato's bed because he knows that it's "soft and fluffy", both of them blushed awkwardly in response to the Detective Boys' speculation; later in Page 9, Takagi whispers to Sato that "what was really soft and warm ''wasn't'', of course, the bedding..." in front of the kids, making her furiously embarrassed.
 +
* [[Volume 82]], Files 869~871 ([[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 9]]): Takagi misunderstands that Sato is pregnant, and is strongly convinced that the baby is his, which wouldn't make sense if they never had sexual relationship.</ref>

Conan (Shinichi) is currently living with Ran and her father, [[Kogoro Mouri]] in his detective agency. Since living with them, 'Conan' has solved many cases in Kogoro’s place without him noticing, making ‘Sleeping Kogoro’ a household name. Shinichi has been able to have a great deal of affectionate moments with Ran since becoming Conan. This includes hugging, holding hands, sitting in her lap (etc.), even sleeping in the same bed and having a bath together once which causes Shinichi/Conan to have a nose bleed. While still as Conan, Shinichi is able to keep other guys away from Ran, as seen in episode 6 when he tells a guy to never go near her and at the end discovered the chocolate that Ran had made for the guy was only a chocolate for celebrating Friendship.  
+
A running joke in the series is that their relationship never progresses because of interruptions by the rest of the police force or other characters.

Shinichi has confessed to Ran (although non-canonical) in the 4th movie 'Captured In Her Eyes' which she mistook as his attempt to get her memory back. He has also, during a brief return to his true form, canonically planned to propose to her but was interrupted by a case and turned back into Conan before he could. When Shinichi went missing Ran was worried sick (so much that she couldn't even sleep) and was on the verge of going to the police. After many events in the manga, Shinichi decides to give Ran his cell phone number for her to call when she wants to speak to him, and, as Conan, uses his bow tie to mimic his real voice and reassure her he's fine, despite the fact that she may be endangered due to having contact with him.

 +
* Takagi tells the Detective Boys that he likes someone and they infer that it is Sato.
 +
* Takagi was told by Yumi that the person Sato likes is in the first division. He wonders who it is, and worries that it might be [[Ninzaburo Shiratori]], as, when Sato heard that Shiratori was just promoted to the rank of Police Inspector (despite being so young), she asked jokingly whether Shiratori could add her to the list of people who wished to marry him.
 +
* Shiratori invites Sato out for dinner at a French restaurant after the case is resolved, and is dejected when he gets rejected politely by Sato (her reason is that she does not like the formalities in those restaurants).
 +
* Sato instead invites Takagi to have ramen for dinner, but then completely forgets about this when Inspector Megure asks her whether she wants to celebrate having solved the case and have a drink alongside other colleagues. This makes Takagi worried that the one Sato likes might be Megure instead of Shiratori.

Shinichi doesn't dare tell Ran he's Conan as, until the Black Organisation is stopped, she could be in danger if she knew the truth (though Ran has almost caught on several times in the show)- also although Shinichi does love Ran, he has stopped himself from (canonically) telling her about his feelings, as then she will miss him even more and he doesn't want to see her cry anymore, even if he is no longer in her heart (it is possible, however, that Shinichi hasn't really thought this last statement through, as even after this he's seen getting jealous and fending off any men who get close to her, proving he clearly does care if someone else is in her heart instead of him).

==== [[Volume 23|Volume 23: File 231-233]] / [[Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2|Episodes 156-157: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2]] ====
 +
* Takagi asks if Sato likes Inspector Megure, to which Sato replies "yes". She explains it is because he reminds her of her father (who was a police officer and died on duty when she was in primary school). This implies that Sato has no romantic feelings towards Megure, which greatly relieves Takagi.
 +
* Sato's popularity among police officers in Tokyo is shown for the first time. When she is missing, male police officers from all departments and divisions start roaming through the city, frantically looking for her.
  
−
Despite their obstacles, it is quite obvious that throughout the series Ran and Shinichi (Conan) have a relationship that started as childhood friends but developed into love- however, how long it will take until it is safe for this love to prosper and be openly shown depends on the impending defeat of the Black Organisation.<ref>[[Volume 11#File_107_-_The_Two_Mysteries|Volume 11, File 107: The Two Mysteries]]</ref>

 +
* Sato says that she would grant any wish of the person who solves the case leading to her father's death (i.e. the Shuushirou case), prompting Takagi and Shiratori to fantasize about Sato in a wedding dress.
 +
* Takagi forgets his handcuffs and says the fortune telling magazine says that he will be super lucky today. It gives Sato flashbacks of the day her father died, when he left home he had forgotten his handcuffs and also said he would be super lucky that day. Sato gives her old, rusty handcuffs to Takagi, telling him they are a memento of her father and that it will sure bring him luck. Shiratori looks decidedly put out.
 +
* Later, Takagi is handcuffed to the windows of an abandoned warehouse that has been set on fire; Sato wants to rush into the warehouse to save Takagi but is stopped by Shiratori and Megure. As bits of the warehouse crumbles, Sato yells out that Takagi is a baka, with tears in her eyes, only to hear Takagi answering her from behind them.
 +
* Takagi has managed to save himself, but was still handcuffed to a metal bar, he collapses from the wound to his head, and Sato notices he has a gun and asks him why he didn't just shoot the handcuffs with his gun. The Detective Boys answer that it must have been because the handcuffs were the memento from Sato's father and he didn't want to damage them.
 +
* Sato holds Takagi's unconscious body, and Shiratori stands to the side with his arms crossed.
 +
* To show her thanks and keep her promise (because Takagi figured out the mystery), she asks what Takagi's wish is, and he says that he wants to go on a date with her. Sato agrees to the date happily, but it ends up being an undercover mission instead.

 +
* As Ran is mulling over her failed attempt to ask about Shinichi's feelings for her, Takagi walks by muttering, "doing it directly is bad..." about his situation with Sato (Ran, Kogoro and Conan do not realize what he is talking about, though).
 +
* A ticket to a magic show drops out of Takagi's jacket, and when asked by Sato, Takagi says that Yumi had an extra ticket and invited him, but that he was not too interested. Takagi's words here are actually pre-meditated, and all this is part of Yumi's plan to test whether Sato likes Takagi. Since Sato's expression does not change when she hears this, and she instead encourages Takagi to go with Yumi, Takagi concludes that Sato has no feelings towards him. He thus becomes very dejected and resigned.
 +
* Later, Takagi gets a phone call from Yumi asking how it has gone, and as it has gone badly and he is additionally in the middle of dealing with an important case, he hangs up quickly shouting for her to call him at a better time.
 +
* After the case is solved Sato approaches Yumi and asks her if she likes Takagi. Yumi is thrown off guard by this question and exclaims loudly, and when Sato pursues, Yumi says that she does not like Takagi at all. Sato remarks that she thought so, and advises Yumi to stop messing with Takagi, as "Takagi has been really troubled ever since he got your tickets to the magic show".
 +
* This interaction makes Yumi believe that Sato does indeed like Takagi. She initially wants to tell Takagi about this to lighten him up, but then changes his mind, as Sato concludes her advice by saying "you should find a man suitable for yourself and enter a serious relationship with him".
 +
* Kogoro, Ran and Conan comment that Sato is in an awfully good mood for someone who just got her pay cut (because a suspect had died in police custody); Conan hypothesizes that "maybe something good happened" (of course, they do not know that Sato's good mood comes from the relief after confirming that Yumi does not like Takagi).

* Sato, pressured by her mom to attend an omiai (arranged marriage meeting), randomly picks a photo of a possible suitor (with her toes, no less), and it turns out to be Shiratori.
 +
* Yumi promises to send her a "servant" (Takagi) to save Sato (who had just agreed to a bet with Shiratori that she’d marry him if Takagi didn’t show up within the time the sun sets), and she texts Takagi.  However, he is caught up with a case and doesn't read the message until Conan, (who happens to be there eavesdropping with Araide, Ran and Sonoko at the time) calls him using Shinichi's voice and explains the situation.  He also helps Takagi with the case.
 +
* Sato, who had just agreed to the wager, thinks that Takagi will definitely come, and then, blushing, she wonders why she thinks that.
 +
* As the sun is about to set, Sato resigns herself to the deal and thinks herself a failure as a police officer for not realizing  until just now how important Takagi has become to her.
 +
* Just as Shiratori is about to seal their deal with a kiss, Conan uses Araide's shadow and his voice-changing bow tie to imitate Takagi's form and voice, stopping the kiss, and thus the deal.
 +
* The real Takagi is waiting outside the house, thinking that he failed to stop the bet, when Sato runs out and gets in his car.
 +
* Here it is shown that Conan approves of their relationship.

[[Image:Takagi and Sato EP302.jpg|thumb|250px]]
 +
* Sato and Takagi are planning to go on a date, but since Takagi is interrogated on this matter and fails to keep silent, everyone in the first division learns about it, and it seems lots of them have requested days off and reserved binoculars for that day.
 +
* Shiratori proudly tells Yumi that if there is a date between Sato and Takagi, they can rest assured that the date will be spied upon by many police officers, and that he will be in charge of the spying mission.
 +
* Takagi puts on a disguise that reminds Sato of her former colleague [[Matsuda|Jinpei Matsuda]]. Because of the special role that Matsuda plays in Sato's heart, she slaps him and suddenly becomes icy cold towards Takagi (despite the fact that Takagi does not know about Matsuda at all).
 +
* Takagi almost gets blown up and Sato frantically tries to rescue him, not knowing that Takagi is safe, burning her hands in the process. The other infer that she was trying to save both Takagi and Matsuda.
 +
* At the end, Sato apologizes for having slapped Takagi, and Takagi frets over Sato's hands, resulting in them staring into each other's eyes until they pull away, both blushing.
 +
* Sato says everyone she has ever cared about deeply has died, and that therefore it would be better if she and Takagi went back to just being colleagues. Takagi does not have the courage to say otherwise, so agrees after a while. Sato walks away sadly as Takagi stares after her and Yumi and the Detective Boys watch in the background, apparently disappointed.

Considering May 4th is Shinichi's birthday, Ran went out with Sonoko to buy him a gift. On the phone, she asked Shinichi(Conan) what color he prefer most: red or blue, and Shinichi answered red which excites Ran. She planned on inviting Shinichi for a movie the night before his birthday, and with Moriya Teiji knowing about this, he decided to bomb the whole place aiming for Shinichi. Inside the movie hall, Ran was trapped inside the collapsing building due to the numerous bombs placed, which alerted Conan and hurriedly went inside to try to save her. He called to the telephone inside the main lobby where Ran is, using Shinichi's voice and asked Ran if there's anything suspicious inside. She found a bomb and Conan instructed her to disconnect the wires, which left them with the red and blue wire. Seeing they weren't in the manual, Conan came into conclusion that she should cut the red one, which is Ran's favorite color. Ran hesitates of cutting the wire, but Conan responds by saying "Don't worry, I'll stay here until you cut it. If we die, we die together." Very few seconds were remaining until midnight and a rescuer dragged Conan away, only the time when he realized he instructed Ran to cut the wire that will detonate the bomb. What's strange is the bomb didn't go off even when time's up, and Conan discovered Ran has cut the blue wire. At the end when Conan asked why, Ran told him that color red is her and Shinichi's lucky color and cutting the red wire means cutting off their relationship.

* Takagi thinks he cannot compete against Matsuda, and is mocked by the Detective Boys. Takagi says he doesn't want to give up either.
 +
* Sato dreams and sees the grim reaper behind Takagi, and doesn't take him to investigate bomb sites, because she doesn't want anything to happen to him.
 +
* Near the end of the case, Sato begins to cry on Takagi's shoulder saying that she wants to forget Matsuda, and after Takagi tells her she should not forget (as that would mean that Matsuda is really dead), Sato becomes deeply touched, and the two nearly kiss. However, they are interrupted by [[Juzo Megure|Megure]].
 +
* Sato deletes her precious last message from Matsuda (the one where he told Sato about the next bombing site and confessed his love to her), but she thinks that she will never forget him.

* Takagi and Sato are going on their very first date at the Tropical Marine Land, and Shiratori (as he once said he would) is leading a large group of police officers equipped with cameras, binoculars and camouflage to spy on and sabotage the date.
 +
* Shiratori is not shy to use rather extreme methods for disruption, for example making police officers smear the police (in general) so that Sato would get angry, and giving the Detective Boys tickets to Tropical Marine Land and leading them to Takagi and Sato so that they would have to take care of them.
 +
* Agasa was initially accompanying the Detective Boys, but Shiratori asks him to go home to confirm some details in a previous case, thus ensuring that the Detective Boys would never leave Takagi and Sato.
 +
* Takagi thinks that the Detective Boys are a burden, as he has bought a ring for Sato and wants to take the opportunity to give it to her. Sato does not mind, though, and jokes that Takagi can view it as preparation of what comes when they have a baby.
 +
* Before Takagi is able to give the ring to Sato, his bag has been switched with that of a drug dealer's; that bag is full of cocaine. So now Takagi is dragged into a case (on top of all the other troubles that Takagi is facing). Eventually the bag drops into a river and the ring is lost.
 +
* Sato makes Takagi promise that he will never go away and leave her.
 +
* Conan thinks to himself that although Takagi lost his ring, he has gained something much more precious.

Inside the Aquarium-like building, a bomb goes off which blows the whole aquarium up. Considering it's in the middle of the sea, water enters the building which leads to drown some of the people targeted. On the surface, Conan noticed Ran was nowhere in sight, so he suspected Ran was in the bottom of the water. He grabbed an empty bottle for air and dived in, and discovers Ran was indeed in the bottom, her foot stuck in a car model which was drowning her. Conan quickly placed the mouth of the bottle into hers to allow her to breathe, and Ran thought it was Shinichi who saved her. When she came to her senses, she realized it was Conan. Conan's foot gets stuck in the car too, and thus he was unable to hold on much longer and fainted. Ran then 'kissed' Conan, resulting to a mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. When Conan wakes, Ran then fainted, so he makes use of Ran's sacrifice that very moment and he managed to remove the car using his belt suspenders. When finally in the surface, Ran thanks Conan, into which Conan blushes.

* Sato sternly orders Takagi to get into her car, so Takagi wonders if he did something wrong. He starts worrying and even thinks she is going to break up with him. However, when he opens the door and a toy snake leaps out, scaring him, Sato starts laughing, commenting that the trick worked perfectly. Takagi is relieved and they flirt cutely (Chiba and Shiratori are actually watching them the entire time).
 +
* The police department is led to believe that Takagi will be sent to Tottori to deal with a complex case. This makes them ecstatic, as, in this way, Takagi will be staying away from Sato for a long time (perhaps a few years). Takagi is disappointed that Sato seems to be indifferent, even asking for twentieth century pears while Yumi burst into tears.
 +
* While investigating the case, Takagi yells, "I am definitely not going to find another woman! Definitely not!" when he overhears the Detective Boys chatting about Hide (the soccer player) leaving the country and finding a girlfriend as he thought they were talking about him. When he realizes that this is not the case, he is quite embarrassed.
 +
* Takagi is upset that Sato still has not shown any emotion about his leaving Tokyo, but when Sato falls for her own trick with the toy snake, she is silent and appears upset. Then, she suddenly asks Takagi to swear that even if there are cute female police officers in Tottori, he will stay loyal to her. Takagi does exactly this.
 +
* Right after Takagi blurts that he wants to be engaged with Sato before he leaves, Megure informs them that it is actually Chosuke Takagi who is being sent away, and not Wataru.
 +
*Sato, who is blushing a lot, asks what Takagi just said, but he quickly changes the subject and says that they should go to karaoke with the kids. Takagi is shown sighing at the karaoke with Conan and Ai watching him.

When the culprit was finally figured out, he grabbed into the weak Ran as hostage and dragged her up in the heliport of the sinking building. The culprit called unto Conan to bring him Shiratori's gun, and even he hesitated, Conan deliberately obeyed. But seeing the scene was exactly when Eri's been held hostage and Kogoro was in decision, Conan understood why he shot Eri's leg. He did the same then, in which he slightly shot Ran's leg in order for the culprit to let go. In the end, Ran also realizes why Kogoro shot Eri's leg is because to save her, not to threaten her. She thought that if Shinichi was in the case, he'll do the same as Conan did. Meanwhile, Conan understood the meaning of the video game he played earlier that he will get to kiss someone, and that was Ran during the mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

 +
* Shiratori heckles him about the jewelry shop visit and the brooch.
 +
* After solving the case, Takagi is able to retrieve the brooch from the culprit's coat. Sato remarks that Yumi once told her that she liked the brooch, and that since she does not like flashy things, she would lend jewelries to Yumi. This makes it clear that Yumi is just using Sato's popularity to trick male police officers into indirectly buying her things that she wants.
 +
* Yumi mentions that she plans to continue doing this, and that her next victim will be Assistant Inspector Takano.

* When it dawns on Conan what is going on, he calls Takagi, who admits that a few days ago, he was doing a stakeout, and wrote "Takagi Miwako" on the glass and forgot to wipe it up. In short, he wrote what Sato's name would be if they were to marry.

When Conan, Heiji and the others went to see their fortunes while on Osaka, Ran's fortune says "Your true love will come to you.", which obviously means Shinichi. Conan's fortune then says "A secret will be revealed", thinking Ran would discover his secret. Throughout the movie, Ran was suspecting the Conan is Shinichi. Conan has given out hints unintentionally, like saying his birthday was May 4th(Shinichi's birthday). When inside the cave of the Russian Mansion, the culprit then aimed on Ran's right eye and Conan came into rescue. Due to this, Ran saw Shinichi's image on Conan and there she confirmed Conan really ''is'' Shinichi. At the end, when Ran is tending to Kaito Kid's dove, she gets teary-eyed and begged for Conan to tell her the truth. When Conan was now inclined to reveal the truth, there stood Shinichi in the doorway, saying he took a break on his case to visit Ran. Seeing Shinichi was all wet due to the rain, Ran went upstairs to get him clothes. Shinichi then went outside to leave, and there Conan suspects he was actually Kaito Kid who stopped Conan from telling the truth to Ran, saying he saved him just like how he saved his dove. When Kid finally disappeared, Ran gets angry because Shinichi never says goodbyes to her. But due to Kid's appearance as Shinichi, she was finally convinced that Shinichi and Conan were two different people.

* Takagi and Sato are invited to a goukon (singles mixer) separately, and both agree to go to even out the numbers. Since neither tells the other about this beforehand, when they meet at the goukon, they both get jealous (especially when they see each other paying attention to other people).
 +
* In the middle of the case, Sato and Takagi get into a jealous quarrel.
 +
* After the case is solved, Takagi and Sato come together to resolve the slightly awkward situation, and they come to the conclusion that neither has done anything wrong, and that just like winning lottery, them meeting at the same Toulon is something very unlikely. Takagi thus mentions that he has never won the lottery.
 +
* Sato, upon hearing Takagi's words, asks whether getting her would count as winning the lottery. Takagi, of course, says that Sato is a super win ticket. The two then nearly kiss, before being reminded that Kogoro, Ran, and Conan are still in the backseat.

* Sato is annoyed that Yumi is sticking too close to Takagi as Yumi and Takagi play stand-ins for a couple on their wedding day (Shiratori, on the other hand, suggests that they make it real and marry on the spot).
 +
* Later in the case, Sato switches places with Yumi to protect her from the culprit (i.e. the groom himself). She tries to arrest the groom as he escapes,  but then mistakenly pins Takagi down to the ground (since the groom looks a lot like Takagi); the groom is instead taken down by Ran.
 +
* It turns out that a witness to Sato's "assault" on Takagi is a famous photographer. So, it is not surprising that sometime later, while walking on the streets, the police officers see the picture that he took of Sato pinning Takagi down in a commercial ad. Sato and Takagi are embarrassed, and Chiba slyly tells Shiratori that taking the ad down would constitute a crime.

The first part of the movie shows the day when Shinichi gets shrunk, in Tropical Land.

* Ran congratulates Takagi on his engagement to Sato, and is shocked when Takagi tells her that the ring is not from him. He says that he feels like he is on a tightrope with Sato (this turns out to be a useful hint that helps Conan solve the case).

* Takagi and Sato are on a stakeout mission when Sato says suddenly “give me a hot kiss right now!”. Takagi is greatly surprised by this but complies, but before their lips can meet, they are interrupted by Conan, who points out that they are pretending to be lovers so that the suspect that they are spying on would not grow suspicious (Conan is then scolded by Sonoko, as she is supportive of the relationship as well).

In the end, when Ran's memories have returned, she told Conan that she weren't suited for him because she's older. As Conan tried to counter, Ran thought he must've said such things to help her return her memories back, because of the time Eri told them how Kogoro proposed to her, saying the same things Conan said.

When Kaito Kid and Conan managed to get back the airship using Officers Takagi and Satou's helicopter, Kid warned Conan that Ran might be infected with the deadly bacteria released by the terrorists, and Conan puts that in mind. When he arrived again inside, he saw Ran being dragged by a terrorist inside the room infected the most of the bacteria, when she discovered she was infected herself. Conan suspects this, and realized there wasn't any deadly bacteria at all, but just skin rashes. When Conan discovered the real leader was still out there, and managed to escape from him, Kaito Kid arrived to where everyone is and untied Ran first. Ran witnessed Kid grabbed the Jewel of the Lady Sky, and still cannot believe Shinichi could do such thing.

In the end, Conan finds Ran nowhere in sight and asked Sonoko where she is. Haibara replied she went up to see Kid, much into Conan's shock. However, Ran ''did'' came up to see Kid, who was busy checking the jewel. Ran suddenly hugged him, saying "A thief's still a thief, you shouldn't be doing this. Please turn around, Shinichi. Let me see you." Kid, seeing Ran was really motivated to see Shinichi in him, turned around and said, "If you give me the treasure I wanted most, I will turn myself to the police." Ran insisted she has nothing to give him, but what Kid really meant is a kiss. When their two lips were about to touch, Ran suspected Kid was actually not Shinichi, and Conan suddenly came, seeing what they did. Conan gets angry and ran over Kid, who gave his kiss on Ran's hand and admitted he was really a thief, and a thief's job is to steal even a person's heart. Kid managed to escape just before Conan approaches him. He gets curious when Ran says "He did ''that'' to me"(hinting Kid tries to sneak over Ran and tries to sexually abuse her) and "Shinichi would never do ''that'' to me". The film ends with Conan desperately trying to figure out what it was.

On the final scene after the ending song, the senpai confessed to Ran and sonoko that she was the one who confessed to Shinichi but rejected. She even spread lies about him so that Shinichi would notice her but it seems he doesn't care at all. Sonoko asked what charasteristic of Shinichi appealed her, She replied," let's see... I didn't really notice it at first. I just thought he was an extraordinary rookie, making the team and becoming mid-fielder in his first year. Then one day, I shared a lemon pie I had made with the soccer club. Everyone said it was really good, But only he said..."Huh? This tastes like crap" Ran apologize," He just had a weird sense of taste." The senpai demand," No. It actually tasted bad back then. When I asked the others later, They told me they were just being polite. So, I was mad and I baked a lemon pie everyday...for three months, until he told me it's good. And before I knew it, I was the manager of the soccer club and madly in love with him. Although a certain person here succeeded on her first try." She looked at Ran and Ran asked," huh?" She answered," Did you know? I was being mean and gave you the wrong baking instructions." Ran got surprised and said," What? Why?" She said," Jeez. do you want me to spill it out for you? Do you want to know what he said after I confessed?" Conan's blushing and said," um, hey! " Sonoko covered his mouth and demand him to shut up. The senpai continued," He said shyly," Ah, sorry, senpai. I already hae someone I've liked since I was little. She's strong-willed and stubborn but cries a lot. She's weird like that." What do you think?" Sonoko asked," H-Hey, Ran Isn't that..." ran said," I don't remember anyone like that." Sonoko and Conan sighed. This episode means that Shinichi's first love is Ran. Geez, Ran's so clueless.

These episodes are really sad.The part when Ran said that she will donate her blood for Conan, and when Ran was crying when Conan told her that Shinichi left again (the background really did something to it). Anyways, aside from sad parts, there are also some scenes that had me laughing and laughing: Shinichi greets the Detective Boys, but they ignored him since they don’t know Shinichi; Shinichi calling Ran, “Ran-neechan”; Shinichi and Ran’s classmates eavesdropping to their conversation ; Heiji pretending to be Shinichi but was caught easily by Kazuha; Haibara disguising as Conan ignored Heiji; Kogoro cheering for Ran in the play; Kazuha yelling at  Ran that she can take care of those guys in the play by using karate; Kogoro trying to stop the play because of the romantic scene; Ran telling Shinichi that what he wants to say is if he can borrow school notes and; Shinichi trying to stop himself into checking out the murder case while trying to tell Ran his true feelings. These parts are really funny! Aside from the said scenes, there are also these really sweet scenes: Shinichi and Ran’s almost kiss in the play that was interrupted because of some murder

Shnichi and Ran in New York, Yukiko is there, and a case that has a connection with Greek Mythology..what else can you ask? This is one of my favorite cases, and Shinichi & Ran episodes. That “kizu or kisu” part is both funny and sweet! Ran really thought that Shinichi is going to kiss her! ♥ Also, that car part is so sweet! But I think Yukiko is the real culprit, why they have to do that ♥. They've got so many moments in these episodes. Like on the latter part that Ran's handkerchief flew away and Shinichi get it from her. Ran waited outside for Shinichi. Many minutes later, Ran can't wait anymore and goes up the stairs whereon her handkerchief must flew. Then she met a guy with a silver hair which was a serial murderer. Luckily, shinichi was there. And many more moments.

The romantic relationship between Wataru Takagi and Miwako Sato.

Contents

Relationship analysis

Takagi and Sato

Wataru Takagi and Miwako Sato are two officers working under Inspector Megure in the first division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, where Sato is currently Takagi's superior. As the story progresses, they start developing strong mutual romantic feelings for one another.

Despite being heavily admired by many male colleagues around her, especially Inspector Shiratori in the beginning, Sato still cares and worries about Takagi deeply, most notably during situations where his safety was put at risk. She also finds in Takagi traits that remind her of her late colleague, Jinpei Matsuda, whom she had become romantically inclined towards in the brief time they've known each other. Takagi, on the other hand, respects Sato as his senior and loves her sincerely as a girlfriend, even to the point of willingly sacrificing his own life just to keep her away from all dangers.[1] After going through numerous difficulties and challenges, in some later cases, their relationship was hinted to have entered a sexual level; however, the true nature of this development has yet to be confirmed.[2]

A running joke in the series is that their relationship never progresses because of interruptions by the rest of the police force or other characters.

Wataru Takagi and Miwako Sato moments

Manga/Anime

Volume 21: Files 208-210 / Episodes 146-147: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story

  • Takagi tells the Detective Boys that he likes someone and they infer that it is Sato.
  • Takagi was told by Yumi that the person Sato likes is in the first division. He wonders who it is, and worries that it might be Ninzaburo Shiratori, as, when Sato heard that Shiratori was just promoted to the rank of Police Inspector (despite being so young), she asked jokingly whether Shiratori could add her to the list of people who wished to marry him.
  • Shiratori invites Sato out for dinner at a French restaurant after the case is resolved, and is dejected when he gets rejected politely by Sato (her reason is that she does not like the formalities in those restaurants).
  • Sato instead invites Takagi to have ramen for dinner, but then completely forgets about this when Inspector Megure asks her whether she wants to celebrate having solved the case and have a drink alongside other colleagues. This makes Takagi worried that the one Sato likes might be Megure instead of Shiratori.

Volume 23: File 231-233 / Episodes 156-157: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2

  • Takagi asks if Sato likes Inspector Megure, to which Sato replies "yes". She explains it is because he reminds her of her father (who was a police officer and died on duty when she was in primary school). This implies that Sato has no romantic feelings towards Megure, which greatly relieves Takagi.
  • Sato's popularity among police officers in Tokyo is shown for the first time. When she is missing, male police officers from all departments and divisions start roaming through the city, frantically looking for her.

Volume 27: Files 267-269 / Episodes 205-206: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 3

Takagi and Sato EP206 (1).jpg
  • Sato says that she would grant any wish of the person who solves the case leading to her father's death (i.e. the Shuushirou case), prompting Takagi and Shiratori to fantasize about Sato in a wedding dress.
  • Takagi forgets his handcuffs and says the fortune telling magazine says that he will be super lucky today. It gives Sato flashbacks of the day her father died, when he left home he had forgotten his handcuffs and also said he would be super lucky that day. Sato gives her old, rusty handcuffs to Takagi, telling him they are a memento of her father and that it will sure bring him luck. Shiratori looks decidedly put out.
  • Later, Takagi is handcuffed to the windows of an abandoned warehouse that has been set on fire; Sato wants to rush into the warehouse to save Takagi but is stopped by Shiratori and Megure. As bits of the warehouse crumbles, Sato yells out that Takagi is a baka, with tears in her eyes, only to hear Takagi answering her from behind them.
  • Takagi has managed to save himself, but was still handcuffed to a metal bar, he collapses from the wound to his head, and Sato notices he has a gun and asks him why he didn't just shoot the handcuffs with his gun. The Detective Boys answer that it must have been because the handcuffs were the memento from Sato's father and he didn't want to damage them.
  • Sato holds Takagi's unconscious body, and Shiratori stands to the side with his arms crossed.
  • To show her thanks and keep her promise (because Takagi figured out the mystery), she asks what Takagi's wish is, and he says that he wants to go on a date with her. Sato agrees to the date happily, but it ends up being an undercover mission instead.

Volume 30: Files 296-298 / Episodes 240-241: The Shinkansen Transport Case

  • As Ran is mulling over her failed attempt to ask about Shinichi's feelings for her, Takagi walks by muttering, "doing it directly is bad..." about his situation with Sato (Ran, Kogoro and Conan do not realize what he is talking about, though).
  • A ticket to a magic show drops out of Takagi's jacket, and when asked by Sato, Takagi says that Yumi had an extra ticket and invited him, but that he was not too interested. Takagi's words here are actually pre-meditated, and all this is part of Yumi's plan to test whether Sato likes Takagi. Since Sato's expression does not change when she hears this, and she instead encourages Takagi to go with Yumi, Takagi concludes that Sato has no feelings towards him. He thus becomes very dejected and resigned.
  • Later, Takagi gets a phone call from Yumi asking how it has gone, and as it has gone badly and he is additionally in the middle of dealing with an important case, he hangs up quickly shouting for her to call him at a better time.
  • After the case is solved Sato approaches Yumi and asks her if she likes Takagi. Yumi is thrown off guard by this question and exclaims loudly, and when Sato pursues, Yumi says that she does not like Takagi at all. Sato remarks that she thought so, and advises Yumi to stop messing with Takagi, as "Takagi has been really troubled ever since he got your tickets to the magic show".
  • This interaction makes Yumi believe that Sato does indeed like Takagi. She initially wants to tell Takagi about this to lighten him up, but then changes his mind, as Sato concludes her advice by saying "you should find a man suitable for yourself and enter a serious relationship with him".
  • Kogoro, Ran and Conan comment that Sato is in an awfully good mood for someone who just got her pay cut (because a suspect had died in police custody); Conan hypothesizes that "maybe something good happened" (of course, they do not know that Sato's good mood comes from the relief after confirming that Yumi does not like Takagi).

Volume 32: File 328-330 / Episodes 253-254: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 4

  • Sato, pressured by her mom to attend an omiai (arranged marriage meeting), randomly picks a photo of a possible suitor (with her toes, no less), and it turns out to be Shiratori.
  • Yumi promises to send her a "servant" (Takagi) to save Sato (who had just agreed to a bet with Shiratori that she’d marry him if Takagi didn’t show up within the time the sun sets), and she texts Takagi. However, he is caught up with a case and doesn't read the message until Conan, (who happens to be there eavesdropping with Araide, Ran and Sonoko at the time) calls him using Shinichi's voice and explains the situation. He also helps Takagi with the case.
  • Sato, who had just agreed to the wager, thinks that Takagi will definitely come, and then, blushing, she wonders why she thinks that.
  • As the sun is about to set, Sato resigns herself to the deal and thinks herself a failure as a police officer for not realizing until just now how important Takagi has become to her.
  • Just as Shiratori is about to seal their deal with a kiss, Conan uses Araide's shadow and his voice-changing bow tie to imitate Takagi's form and voice, stopping the kiss, and thus the deal.
  • The real Takagi is waiting outside the house, thinking that he failed to stop the bet, when Sato runs out and gets in his car.
  • Here it is shown that Conan approves of their relationship.

Volume 36: Files 366-368 / Episodes 301-302: Parade of Malice and Saint

Takagi and Sato EP302.jpg
  • Sato and Takagi are planning to go on a date, but since Takagi is interrogated on this matter and fails to keep silent, everyone in the first division learns about it, and it seems lots of them have requested days off and reserved binoculars for that day.
  • Shiratori proudly tells Yumi that if there is a date between Sato and Takagi, they can rest assured that the date will be spied upon by many police officers, and that he will be in charge of the spying mission.
  • Takagi puts on a disguise that reminds Sato of her former colleague Jinpei Matsuda. Because of the special role that Matsuda plays in Sato's heart, she slaps him and suddenly becomes icy cold towards Takagi (despite the fact that Takagi does not know about Matsuda at all).
  • Takagi almost gets blown up and Sato frantically tries to rescue him, not knowing that Takagi is safe, burning her hands in the process. The other infer that she was trying to save both Takagi and Matsuda.
  • At the end, Sato apologizes for having slapped Takagi, and Takagi frets over Sato's hands, resulting in them staring into each other's eyes until they pull away, both blushing.
  • Sato says everyone she has ever cared about deeply has died, and that therefore it would be better if she and Takagi went back to just being colleagues. Takagi does not have the courage to say otherwise, so agrees after a while. Sato walks away sadly as Takagi stares after her and Yumi and the Detective Boys watch in the background, apparently disappointed.

Volume 36: File 369-373 / Episode 304: The Trembling Police Headquarters

Sato and Takagi were close to kissing before Megure interrupted.
  • Takagi thinks he cannot compete against Matsuda, and is mocked by the Detective Boys. Takagi says he doesn't want to give up either.
  • Sato dreams and sees the grim reaper behind Takagi, and doesn't take him to investigate bomb sites, because she doesn't want anything to happen to him.
  • Near the end of the case, Sato begins to cry on Takagi's shoulder saying that she wants to forget Matsuda, and after Takagi tells her she should not forget (as that would mean that Matsuda is really dead), Sato becomes deeply touched, and the two nearly kiss. However, they are interrupted by Megure.
  • Sato deletes her precious last message from Matsuda (the one where he told Sato about the next bombing site and confessed his love to her), but she thinks that she will never forget him.

(TV Original) Episode 321: The Kidnapper's Disappearing Getaway Car

  • Sato and Takagi have to pretend to be lovers, and both are embarrassed, Sato makes Takagi sit closer to her and put his arm around her.

Volume 40: Files 404-406 / Episodes 358-359: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 5

  • Takagi and Sato are going on their very first date at the Tropical Marine Land, and Shiratori (as he once said he would) is leading a large group of police officers equipped with cameras, binoculars and camouflage to spy on and sabotage the date.
  • Shiratori is not shy to use rather extreme methods for disruption, for example making police officers smear the police (in general) so that Sato would get angry, and giving the Detective Boys tickets to Tropical Marine Land and leading them to Takagi and Sato so that they would have to take care of them.
  • Agasa was initially accompanying the Detective Boys, but Shiratori asks him to go home to confirm some details in a previous case, thus ensuring that the Detective Boys would never leave Takagi and Sato.
  • Takagi thinks that the Detective Boys are a burden, as he has bought a ring for Sato and wants to take the opportunity to give it to her. Sato does not mind, though, and jokes that Takagi can view it as preparation of what comes when they have a baby.
  • Before Takagi is able to give the ring to Sato, his bag has been switched with that of a drug dealer's; that bag is full of cocaine. So now Takagi is dragged into a case (on top of all the other troubles that Takagi is facing). Eventually the bag drops into a river and the ring is lost.
  • Sato makes Takagi promise that he will never go away and leave her.
  • Conan thinks to himself that although Takagi lost his ring, he has gained something much more precious.

Volume 44: Files 450-452 / Episodes 390-391: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 6

  • Sato sternly orders Takagi to get into her car, so Takagi wonders if he did something wrong. He starts worrying and even thinks she is going to break up with him. However, when he opens the door and a toy snake leaps out, scaring him, Sato starts laughing, commenting that the trick worked perfectly. Takagi is relieved and they flirt cutely (Chiba and Shiratori are actually watching them the entire time).
  • The police department is led to believe that Takagi will be sent to Tottori to deal with a complex case. This makes them ecstatic, as, in this way, Takagi will be staying away from Sato for a long time (perhaps a few years). Takagi is disappointed that Sato seems to be indifferent, even asking for twentieth century pears while Yumi burst into tears.
  • While investigating the case, Takagi yells, "I am definitely not going to find another woman! Definitely not!" when he overhears the Detective Boys chatting about Hide (the soccer player) leaving the country and finding a girlfriend as he thought they were talking about him. When he realizes that this is not the case, he is quite embarrassed.
  • Takagi is upset that Sato still has not shown any emotion about his leaving Tokyo, but when Sato falls for her own trick with the toy snake, she is silent and appears upset. Then, she suddenly asks Takagi to swear that even if there are cute female police officers in Tottori, he will stay loyal to her. Takagi does exactly this.
  • Right after Takagi blurts that he wants to be engaged with Sato before he leaves, Megure informs them that it is actually Chosuke Takagi who is being sent away, and not Wataru.
  • Sato, who is blushing a lot, asks what Takagi just said, but he quickly changes the subject and says that they should go to karaoke with the kids. Takagi is shown sighing at the karaoke with Conan and Ai watching him.

Volume 47: Files 484-486 / Episodes 401-402: A Jewel Thief Caught Red-Handed

  • The Detective Boys run into Takagi as he enters into a jewelry shop to buy a brooch for Sato (he is doing so because Yumi claimed that when Sato saw the brooch on a magazine, she stared at it for a long time). The jewelry is subsequently robbed, and the robber took the brooch.
  • Shiratori heckles him about the jewelry shop visit and the brooch.
  • After solving the case, Takagi is able to retrieve the brooch from the culprit's coat. Sato remarks that Yumi once told her that she liked the brooch, and that since she does not like flashy things, she would lend jewelries to Yumi. This makes it clear that Yumi is just using Sato's popularity to trick male police officers into indirectly buying her things that she wants.
  • Yumi mentions that she plans to continue doing this, and that her next victim will be Assistant Inspector Takano.

Not in manga / Episode 425: Black Impact! The Moment the Black Organization Reaches Out

  • While Kogoro, Ran, and Conan are working on Rena Mizunashi's bell ringer prank case, Conan hops to the apartment next door; it is supposed to be unoccupied.
  • Conan looks on a glass door or window and sees "ki", "mi" and "wa" (き、み、わ) written on it.
  • When it dawns on Conan what is going on, he calls Takagi, who admits that a few days ago, he was doing a stakeout, and wrote "Takagi Miwako" on the glass and forgot to wipe it up. In short, he wrote what Sato's name would be if they were to marry.
  • By the time that Conan sees the glass, the "ta", "ka" and "ko" (た、か、こ) have disappeared.

Volume 50: 511-514 / Episodes 431-432: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 7

Takagi and Sato EP432 (2).jpg
  • Takagi and Sato are invited to a goukon (singles mixer) separately, and both agree to go to even out the numbers. Since neither tells the other about this beforehand, when they meet at the goukon, they both get jealous (especially when they see each other paying attention to other people).
  • In the middle of the case, Sato and Takagi get into a jealous quarrel.
  • After the case is solved, Takagi and Sato come together to resolve the slightly awkward situation, and they come to the conclusion that neither has done anything wrong, and that just like winning lottery, them meeting at the same Toulon is something very unlikely. Takagi thus mentions that he has never won the lottery.
  • Sato, upon hearing Takagi's words, asks whether getting her would count as winning the lottery. Takagi, of course, says that Sato is a super win ticket. The two then nearly kiss, before being reminded that Kogoro, Ran, and Conan are still in the backseat.

Volume 52: 535-537 / Episode 449: Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story - Fake Wedding

Takagi and Sato EP449 (3).jpg
  • Sato is annoyed that Yumi is sticking too close to Takagi as Yumi and Takagi play stand-ins for a couple on their wedding day (Shiratori, on the other hand, suggests that they make it real and marry on the spot).
  • Later in the case, Sato switches places with Yumi to protect her from the culprit (i.e. the groom himself). She tries to arrest the groom as he escapes, but then mistakenly pins Takagi down to the ground (since the groom looks a lot like Takagi); the groom is instead taken down by Ran.
  • It turns out that a witness to Sato's "assault" on Takagi is a famous photographer. So, it is not surprising that sometime later, while walking on the streets, the police officers see the picture that he took of Sato pinning Takagi down in a commercial ad. Sato and Takagi are embarrassed, and Chiba slyly tells Shiratori that taking the ad down would constitute a crime.

  • Takagi keeps thinking back to the almost kiss, and gets jealous and furious at Chiba over the fact that Sato also pulled the "appear as lovers, pretend to kiss" ploy with him on previous stakeouts (Chiba told Takagi that he would never forget that “soft feeling”, and Takagi mistakenly thought that Chiba was referring to Sato's lips).

She is even reminded of her father and Jinpei Matsuda.
  • Takagi is captured by the culprit, and then receives a cellphone call from Sato. The culprit deduces that Sato is Takagi's girlfriend and tries to force him to reply so that Sato could be lured to him for the culprit to take her as hostage. Takagi, not wanting to put Sato in danger, breaks said cellphone instead, winks to the culprit and tells him “guess I will be your only hostage now.”
  • A few minutes later, the police is notified of Takagi's situation, and officers are dispatched to break into the culprit's house to save Takagi. Takagi

mistakenly believes that Sato is among them, and he fears that when she rushes in, the culprit would open fire on her.

  • Sato is crushed when she believes Takagi has died, and then is greatly relieved when Shiratori tells her that he is actually alive. She rushes towards Takagi's room, and Takagi complains that he now cannot go to the new hot springs place, and that every kissing occasion that arose ended up being interrupted.
  • Sato thus kisses Takagi on the spot. The Detective Boys witness this scene and ward off Matsumoto and others, who are about to enter the room to see how Takagi is recovering.

Takagi points out that it was only pocky and that Sato had already eaten some beforehand. After Shiratori drives by with a carload of gifts for Sumiko, Sato throws Takagi a sour look.
  • Later on, Sato is trying to focus and trying to forget something ominous her friend told her that will happen if her boyfriend does not give her return candy.
