Reiko Kujo is Eri's beautiful and strong-willed rival in those courtroom battles where the two meet on opposing sides. She is a well known professional lawyer who has gathered a reputation as a successful, independent, feared and respected female prosecuting attorney in the Tokyo District Court, Criminal Division, Third courtroom, and, as a result of such, the nickname "Madonna of Prosecutors" (検察のマドンナ Kensatsu no Madon'na).

She became the substitute prosecutor of the Tokyo Public Prosecutors Office, working under Takeshi Nezu, her love interest not reciprocated. Five years ago, her superior was the primary prosecutor in a case which started as an investigation into a construction company scandal, over some defective townhouse construction work, but they be to suspect it involved bribery on a political level and joined forces with the S.I.D. (Special Investigation Department). But then the key deponent of their case, the construction design office's manager, committed suicide and turned the case into a maze. They could have resolved the case on an employee's testimony, but he suddenly changed his story entirely, which caused her to have no choice but to cease the prosecution. She sadly replaced her superior as the chief prosecutor, who ended up being happily reassigned elsewhere, in Tottori, in the form of taking responsibility, along with his wife Kayoko and their only child, where he died two years later, on November 27th, and was buried here.
She first met Eri when the latter took up the defense of a murder suspect.

However, as always, Kogoro contradicts her, because for his ignorance all he observed were useless things.
Personality
She is rather rash and eager to proclaim a defendant's guilt even with scant evidence at hand. Whether this stems from her personal drive to defeat Eri or from her profession is as yet unrevealed. The first time they meet the two women know each other by reputation. Whenever a case brings them together as opponents in the courtroom, they deal with each other on a strictly professional basis despite their intense rivalry. Each of them respects the other for her skills, however, and whenever a case turns against her, she is fair enough to accept defeat and bring the true culprit to justice. Although some of these actions are dubious especially in the court, she remains professional and her relationship with Eri is cordial. She has a habit of twirling her pen around her finger when tense or in thought.
Appearance
She is a very attractive woman, fairly tall, with light skin tone, dark violet eyes and a semi-long black hairstyle. Her eyes were green at her first appearance. Furthermore, she is usually seen wearing business suits whenever performing in the court. She is right-handed. Her character design minorly changes for episode 489: no lipstick and slight hair alterations. Furthermore, her previous strong, capable, and domineering image is changed in a gentle and slightly sad side. However, in subsequent episodes, her original appearance has been restored.
Abilities
Intellectual abilities
She is a calculating and intelligent individual who carefully analyses her case piece by piece and thoroughly examines the flow and situation of her prosecutions. However, she often lacks concrete evidence in her investigation which usually results a backfire whenever she states her conclusions.
