  • Kaitou Under Scrutiny (Manga: 16) : Nakamori referencing Kid stealing a whole statue is a reference to the bronze statue heist at the Ekoda Natural History Museum.

Real Life Models

Tsunakura Museum

Tsunakura Museum is modeled after the real-life Art Institute of Chicago Building, a Beaux-Arts building completed in 1893. Tsunakura Museum is shorter than its real-life counterpart, only having 5 windows per side as opposed to the Art Institute's 7 windows. It also incorporates the street lamps outside the museum. The interior is however different, the real-life AIOC Building having Corinthian columns, while the Tsunakura Museum has Ionic columns.

Trivia

  • Date Masamune (伊達 政宗, 1567-1636) was a famous regional ruler of Northern Japan during the Edo Period (1603-1868), and notably founded the city of Sendai. The diamond in his eye is also a reference to his moniker of the "One-Eyed Dragon of Ōshū".
  • Phosphophyllite, known in Japanese as "Rinyō-seki" (燐葉石) is a rare mineral composed of hydrated zinc phosphate and often left uncut as its crystals are brittle, making the existence of the "Green Dragon" rather improbable.
  • Jurō Tsunakura (綱倉 十朗) is named after the first Katakura Kojūrō (片倉 小十郎), Katakura Kagetsuna (片倉 景綱, 1557-1615), head of the Katakura clan and a close aide of Date Masamune.
  • The Italian restaurant at the beginning is named "Verde", meaning "green/lush".
  • In the case Midoriko is working on, the people involved are named after Shōnen Sunday editors: Domoto (堂本), Murata (村田) and Funamoto (舟本), whose name is also used for a riot police officer in Detective Conan file 1119[1].
  • Kaito's handkerchief bears the inscription "hocus-pocus", meaning to "deceive", a fitting name for his persona as Kaitou Kid.
