Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya (円谷光彦 Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko), also known as Mitch Tennison in the Funimation dub, is a character in the manga and anime franchise Detective Conan.
Background
Mitsuhiko is a friend of Ayumi and Genta who enjoys reading science books and takes a scientific approach to problem solving. He seems to be infatuated with both Ayumi and Ai Haibara. He is a smart and well-read first-grader who believes that technology can solve most problems. It was shown that his parents are both teachers, and he has an older sister, Asami Tsuburaya (円谷 朝美 Tsuburaya Asami), two years his senior.[1]
Personality
It has been showed at numerous times that Mitsuhiko really likes to be prepared for any occasion. He enjoys studying scientific, historical and general subjects for his own interest and fun. This eventually allows him to provide useful insights whenever necessary. He's been (or felt) rewarded a few times for his knowledge. In one instance, Ayumi said how impressed she was after Mitsuhiko provided some precise historical facts behind the Ohashi House in Kurashiki, and he thought to himself with a big happy smile on his face: "I'm so glad I studied!".[2]
One of his other qualities is that he tends to be pro-active in many situations and think ahead of possible outcomes. For example, while the Detective Boys were trying to solve riddles they found in a Momotaro container in a small river in Kurashiki, a murder occurred which eventually led to the different codes to get burned. Conan, knowing that resolving those codes would lead to concrete proof as to who the murderer might be, was quite pleased when Mitsuhiko proudly announced that he took notes in his Detective Boys notebook "thinking that something like that could happen".[2]
Relationship analysis
Mitsuhiko seems to have heavy romantic feelings for Ai. Ai uses his feelings to her advantage when she needs him to do something, but she also does admire his courage during missions the Detective Boys must perform.
Name origin
- Mitsuhiko's name comes from novelist Yasuo Uchida's reporter character Mitsuhiko Asami (浅見 光彦 Asami Mitsuhiko). In the English Manga, his name is translated to Mitch Tsuburaya, and Mitch Tennison in the English anime.
