additional information sample essay

Ai Haibara (灰原 哀 Haibara Ai?), real name Shiho Miyano (宮野 志保 Miyano Shiho?), is the inventor of the APTX 4869 poison that shrunk Shinichi Kudo into Conan Edogawa, and a victim of the poison herself. Formerly Sherry (シェリー ?) of the Black Organization, she is on the run from them and lives with Professor Agasa. She is also one of few characters who knows Shinichi is Conan.

Background

Shiho Miyano and her older sister, Akemi, were born into the secret crime syndicate "The Black Organization". She was born to an English mother, Elena Miyano, and a Japanese father, Atsushi Miyano. Both of whom were members of the organization, and deceased. A prodigy, she was sent to the United States for education at a very young age, then later came back to Japan to finish her parents' secret project for the organization. Her nickname in the Organization is "Sherry", after the alcohol.

Ai Haibara

Personality

A bit quiet, though this may be due to her caution to keep herself hidden from the Black Organization. She is sometimes cold and very analytical, however, there are times where she softens her demeanor and reveals herself to be a true friend. She is a loner and misses her older sister, Akemi, greatly (as witnessed in Movie 5: Countdown to Heaven where she would call her sister's old apartment just to hear her voice on the voicemail). Her greatest fear is being caught by the BO and she is especially terrified of Gin. Smart, stubborn, and with a somewhat twisted sense of humor, she tries to keep Conan from doing reckless things that my give away their identity, though often she is surprised by his actions that usually result in his gaining the information he needs while also keeping their identities secret.

Relationship analysis

Ai Haibara seems to have somewhat romantic feelings for Conan/Shinichi, although she never truly admits to it. Indeed, it is a mystery just exactly what she feels for him, whether friend or otherwise. It could be said that, because of their almost equal level of intelligence, she finds it easier to talk to him.

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.

  • Ai Haibara and Ran Mouri

There are instances where Haibara will caution Conan from actions that involve Ran, though it's assumed this is due merely to the fact that she wants to keep her identity hidden. At one point, she was very cold and distant towards Ran, just like she was to most other people. Ran believed that it was because that Haibara had hated her.[1] However, later that day, Haibara finally properly introduced herself to Ran, and they slowly became friends. Haibara believes that Ran looks a lot like her older sister, Akemi Miyano, so she takes special interest in protecting her. These feelings began after Ran jumped through a slew of bullets from Vermouth, to save Haibara and hold her down to the ground, as if to take the bullets for Haibara.[2] Haibara immediately thinks of her own sister, and begins to treat and look at Ran as a spitting image of Akemi. Haibara also begs for Ran to stay at Agasa's house, during when she had learned that Korn, Chianti, and the rest of the Black Organization were lurking about, immediately thinking of her own sister's death, and wanting to keep Ran safe.[3]

  • Ai Haibara and Ayumi Yoshida

Name origin

According to Agasa, Ai's name comes from Cordelia Gray (the character 灰 in her name means "ash") and V. I. Warshawski (I = "Ai"). Although Agasa suggested she use the kanji 愛 (love) for "Ai", she preferred to use the kanji 哀 (sorrow).
