Genta Kojima was a student in Teitan Elementary when [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] was enlisted into his class [[Conan Edogawa|after he had been shrunk]] by the drug [[APTX 4869]]. Shortly afterwards, he and his classmate [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]] had the idea of investigating an apparently haunted mansion. They persuaded Conan to come along, and Genta also personally drafted [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]] when the latter expressed his criticism about supernatural hauntings.

Genta Kojima is a student in [[Teitan Elementary School]] when [[Shinichi Kudo|Shinichi]] joins his class as [[Conan Edogawa]]. Shortly afterwards, he and his classmate [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]] decide to investigate an apparently haunted mansion, and they persuade Conan to come along. When their friend and classmate [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]] expresses his skepticism about supernatural hauntings, Genta forcefully 'persuades' him to tag along as well. As it turns out, the haunting is a cover-up for an old homicide case.
  
As it turned out, the haunting served as a cover-up for an old homicide case. Following its resolution, the foursome decided to stay together and form the nucleus of what would become the [[Detective Boys]]. Genta was quick to pronounce himself the leader of the group, but his lacksy-daisical leadership abilities are commonly neglected in the field, and in fact everyone (even Genta) unanimously views Conan as the group's actual leader. His school shoe locker is used as a mailbox for any of their fellow students who can present them with a case.

Soon after, the accidental acquisition of a treasure map leads Ayumi, Genta, Mistuhiko and Conan on a hunt for a cache of stolen Italian gold coins, during which Conan saves them from getting killed by the mafia members who are also after the gold. After the case is resolved, Mitsuhiko joins Genta and Ayumi in forming the nucleus of an amateur detective group, the [[Detective Boys]].<ref>Manga Chapter 39: Code Sheet Case: The Shining Fish's True Form</ref> Genta is quick to pronounce himself the leader of the group, but his lackadaisical leadership abilities are commonly neglected in the field, and in fact everyone (even Genta) unconsciously views Conan as the group's actual leader.

Genta is apparently an only child living with his parents, who run a liquor store called "Kojima Liquors". He also has an uncle who lives in Gifu.<ref name="Uncle">[[Volume 35#File 360 - Disappearing Mitsuhiko 3|Volume 35, File 360 "Disappearing Mitsuhiko 3", page 18]]: "Hey, I'm going to see my uncle in Gifu soon..."</ref>

== Personality ==
 
== Personality ==
Genta is the overweight, self-proclaimed leader of the Detective Boys. He loves food, especially braised eel on rice, and can eat more than all the other Detective Boys members combined. He also tends to mess up certain Japanese terms with similar-sounding words (especially if the latter are related to food) and is quite inept in reading even the most common Kanji, which on occasion evicts some ridicule from his classmates and friends. His brash personality and tendency to not think before he acts often lands the Detective boys (if not himself) into sticky situations.

Genta is the self-proclaimed leader of the Detective Boys. He loves food, especially braised eel on rice, and can eat more than all the other Detective Boys members combined. When discussions of money come up, Genta tends to think about it in terms of how many eel bowls he could buy. He also tends to mess up certain Japanese terms with similar-sounding words (especially if the latter are related to food) and sometimes has trouble reading even the most common Kanji, which on occasion causes some ridicule from his classmates and friends. His brash personality, lack of awareness of his surroundings, and tendency to not think before acting often lands the Detective Boys (or at least himself) in sticky situations.
  
Even though he is brash and outspoken and can be intimidating, Genta is actually very kind and dependable. He is a good friend of [[Ayumi Yoshida|Ayumi]] and [[Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya|Mitsuhiko]], and has been shown to admire his father, who owns a liquor store.

Genta Kojima (小嶋 元太 Kojima Genta?), also known as George Kaminski in the English dub and manga, is a character in the manga and anime franchise Detective Conan.

Background

Genta

Genta Kojima is a student in Teitan Elementary School when Shinichi joins his class as Conan Edogawa. Shortly afterwards, he and his classmate Ayumi decide to investigate an apparently haunted mansion, and they persuade Conan to come along. When their friend and classmate Mitsuhiko expresses his skepticism about supernatural hauntings, Genta forcefully 'persuades' him to tag along as well. As it turns out, the haunting is a cover-up for an old homicide case.

Soon after, the accidental acquisition of a treasure map leads Ayumi, Genta, Mistuhiko and Conan on a hunt for a cache of stolen Italian gold coins, during which Conan saves them from getting killed by the mafia members who are also after the gold. After the case is resolved, Mitsuhiko joins Genta and Ayumi in forming the nucleus of an amateur detective group, the Detective Boys.[6] Genta is quick to pronounce himself the leader of the group, but his lackadaisical leadership abilities are commonly neglected in the field, and in fact everyone (even Genta) unconsciously views Conan as the group's actual leader. Genta's school shoe locker is used as a mailbox for any of their fellow students to present them with a case to solve.

Genta is apparently an only child living with his parents, who run a liquor store called "Kojima Liquors". He also has an uncle who lives in Gifu.[7]

Personality

Genta is the self-proclaimed leader of the Detective Boys. He loves food, especially braised eel on rice, and can eat more than all the other Detective Boys members combined. When discussions of money come up, Genta tends to think about it in terms of how many eel bowls he could buy. He also tends to mess up certain Japanese terms with similar-sounding words (especially if the latter are related to food) and sometimes has trouble reading even the most common Kanji, which on occasion causes some ridicule from his classmates and friends. His brash personality, lack of awareness of his surroundings, and tendency to not think before acting often lands the Detective Boys (or at least himself) in sticky situations.

Even though he is brash, outspoken and can be intimidating, Genta is actually very kind and dependable. He is a good friend of Ayumi and Mitsuhiko, and has been shown to greatly admire his father, who is considered to be a classic "Child of Edo".
