Contents
Background
He is Saguru Hakuba's father and holds the highest police rank as Superintendent General of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.[1] His younger brother[2] owned the Hakuba Research Center, a research laboratory in Ekoda. He's told his son all about the son of the chief of the Osaka Police, saying Heiji Hattori were a very intuitive detective.
Personality
Hakuba is a humoristic man, always happy, and takes things a bit without serious, like Kaitou Kid, when he met Nakamori and just patted him laughing. His son seems somewhat embarrassed by this reckless behavior, but he has to bear it.
Appellations
Plot overview
The Great Detective Appears!! (Manga: 15)
He convinced Nakamori to work with his son to show Saguru the ropes of real police work.
Non-canon plot overview
Captured in Her Eyes (Movie: 4)
Conan suspected Hakuba, his senior deputy Toshio Moroboshi, and four high policemen. He is the man above the MPD, the one with four stars as insignia, but without mustaches. The official trailer introduced Toshiro Odagiri and other policemen, but Conan's voice defined him Superintendent General, and not Chief superintendent.
Name origin
The surname kanji means "white horse". As a nod to the family name, his family seems to use the horse as its emblem. His brother's laboratory has a horse on its facade as well.
Different looks
Trivia
- His character design is the same used for Superintendent General of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police in episode 155 of the anime Lupin III: Part II, a source of inspiration for Detective Conan.
