Crow (カラス karasu, also written as 鴉 or 烏) is a specie of ravenous birds of the genus Corvus. They are a main feature in the manga and anime franchise Detective Conan, as they represent darkness and the Black Organization, and Magic Kaito.
The Japanese believe black crows carry souls to the beyond. They also think the action of the city crows is the true manifestation of evil, because they are known for digging in humans' garbage to search for food, or wire and hangers to make their nests, as well as attacking people.
In Detective Conan
- Renya Karasuma, the head of the Black Organization, has the kanji for crow in his surname and is shaped like a crow, also having one as a pet. He also uses Nanatsu no Ko, a song about crows, to encode his phone number.
- At numerous occasions, when the main characters witness the organization or some unrelated cases, evil looking crows fly above or are near them. Two anime original cases focus mainly on city crows: 135 and 363.
In Magic Kaito
- Akako Koizumi often has crows for her witch's spells.
Trivia
- Tengu, a long-nosed demon that often appears in Japanese literature, is also "Crow billed Tengu" and is similar to a crow. In movie 7, it is used to represent Karasuma Avenue (烏丸通り Karasuma-dōri) in Kyoto for a code sheet, and the crow featured on a cabinet.
