Detective Conan is the intriguing story of Conan Edogawa, a little boy with his own share of secrets, and his adventures against the shady world of crime. Himself a victim of a crime of most unusual circumstances, he's formed a band called the Junior Detective League [Detective Boys] and is setting out to solve crimes, one mystery at a time.

At the age of 17, Shinichi Kudo was a high school detective. One day he was knocked over and fed an experimental drug that was meant to kill him. Instead, it changed him into a kid. To protect his family from the men that poisoned him, he changed his name to Conan Edogawa (which he pieced together from the authors Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Edogawa Ranpo).

Shinichi Kudou was a bright student who attended Teitan High School, and often helped police officers solve crimes. Then one day he was investigating two suspicious people in black suits. Those men, later recognized as Gin and Vodka, found him spying on them and then gave Shinichi, a medicine that was supposed to have killed him, but that actually just shrunk his body. He then began his adventure as Conan Edogawa, and stayed with Ran Mouri, his best friend. As Ran's father, Kogoro Mouri, is a not-so-great detective, Shinichi/Conan started to help him behind the curtain, which made the detective quite famous. What Conan really wants is to track down Gin, Vodka, and the Black organization so he can get find a cure for his predicament.

As the time goes on, Conan starts attending Teitan Elementary School, and make friends with some 6 year-old kids, Mitsuhiko, Ayumi, and Genta. With the help of Dr. Agasa who makes some useful equipment, such as communication badges, they started a club called Detective Boys.

Conan later encountered Haibara, the inventor of the tonic that transformed Shinichi into a kid. She ran away from the black organization by drinking the medicine. She later joined Conan and his friends, and also entered Teitan elementary while living with Dr. Agasa.

As everything seemed to be settled down, Jodie Saintemillion, a new English teacher in Teitan High School seemed quite suspicious. She arrived by the time Chris Vinyard, the third member of Black organization, arrived from USA to join Gin and Vodka. Conan and Heiji, his rival, are currently working together to investigate the teacher.

Who's Who:

Shin'ichi Kudou: 

A high school detective who regularly helps solve cases for the police department. He's been best friends with Ran Mouri ever since they were little. He likes Ran very much, but he could never get himself to realize his feelings for her. After investigating a case in Tropical Land he follows a suspicious man in all black (Vodka) and witnesses an illegal deal relating to the smuggling of weapons. Not paying attention to what is behind him, Shin'ichi is knocked unconscious by another man in black (Gin). Both men in black realize Shin'ichi is the so-called Heisei Holmes and Vodka nearly shoots him. Gin stops him though, because there were too many policemen nearby. Gin then decides to test a new type of poison, APTX-4869, that is untraceable in the human body on Shin'ichi. The men in black soon leave Shin'ichi by himself. Instead of the poison killing him though, Shin'ichi shrinks to the size of a six-year-old!
 

 
Conan Edogawa: 

Shin'ichi Kudou's shrunken self. Shin'ichi's alias comes from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (writer of Sherlock Holmes) and Ranpo Edogawa (a famous Japanese mystery novel writer). Shin'ichi decides to keep this disguise up in order to protect the people he cares about, especially Ran. If the Black Organization were to find out Shin'ichi is alive, all the people Shin'ichi knows could be put in serious danger. Shin'ichi is determined to someday regain his normal body in order to tell Ran his true feelings for her. Until then, he is living as Conan in Ran's father's detective agency. As Conan, Shin'ichi helps Kogoro (Ran's father) solve mysteries using gadgets created by Professor Agasa.
 

 
Ran Mouri: 

Shin'ichi's childhood friend and the captain of the karate club. She likes Shin'ichi very much and became very worried once she realized he was missing. To help ease her fears, Conan, using a voice-changer to make himself sound like Shin'ichi, occasionally calls her on the phone. Ran cares about Conan very much, but sometimes is suspicious about how much he reminds her of Shin'ichi.
 

 
Kogoro Mouri: 

Ran's father and a detective. He's known as "Sleeping Kogoro" because most of his deductions come when he seems to be in an unconscious state. (The truth is that Conan puts Kogoro to sleep with a dart from his watch and then gives his deduction in Kogoro's voice using a voice-changing bowtie.) He's not very good at deductions by himself and regularly gets hints (although he doesn't want them) from Conan. Despite his flaws, (such as being regularly drunk) Kogoro is quite a sharp shooter and also cares very deeply about his daughter and friends.
 

 
The Detective Boys (Shounen Tantei-dan): 

Consists of Genta, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Conan (reluctantly). Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko are classmates of Conan in Teitan Primary and become fascinated with the idea of solving mysteries after hearing of Conan's involvement in one. Thus the group forms their own detective agency, The Detective Boys. The group later receives a few nifty gadgets (like Conan) from Professor Agasa.
 

 
Heiji Hattori: 

"The Great Detective of the West". Heiji hails from Osaka in the western part of Japan. He's the son of a police chief so it only makes sense for him to be interested in solving mysteries. His childhood friend is Kazuha Tooyama. Like Shin'ichi, Heiji can never seem to admit his feelings for Kazuha and denies them. Heiji is the self-proclaimed rival of Shin'ichi ("The Great Detective of the East") and eventually finds out Conan is Shin'ichi.
 

 
Sonoko Suzuki: 

The rather loud and outgoing friend of Ran. She enjoys talking about cute guys, fawning over Kaitou Kid, and teasing Ran over Shin'ichi.
 

 
Professor Agasa: 

Shin'ichi's next-door neighbor. He was the first person to find out about Shin'ichi's mishap. Professor Agasa is also the inventor that creates the gadgets Shin'ichi uses as Conan in order to help solve mysteries.
 

 
Inspector Megure:

 A police inspector of the local police department. Not much to say about him, except that he refuses to remove his hat and wears it at all times no matter what.
 

 
Eri Kisaki: 

Ran's mother who is a lawyer. Eri doesn't live with Kogoro and Ran due to an event in the past. It is important to remember that Kogoro and Eri are not divorced; they just don't live together.
 

 
Yuusaku Kudou: 

Shin'ichi's father a world-famous mystery novelist. He's best known for writing the Night Baron mystery novels.
 

 
Yukiko Kudou: 

Shin'ichi mother who used to be a famous actress. She's excellent at disguises, but claims her actress friend Sharon Vinyard is much better at it than she is. Both Yukiko and Sharon studied the art of disguise under the watchful eye of a famous Japanese magician. Yukiko is also a very skilled (yet terrifying) driver. In America she is known as the "Night Baroness" since she's solved a mystery or two (or so everyone thinks) and is the wife of Yuusaku who writes the Night Baron novels.
 

 
Kaitou Kid: 

An infamous thief sometimes referred to as "Kaitou 1412". (1412 is supposedly the code number given to him by Interpol.) Kaitou Kid is best known for stealing gems and artwork and wearing an outfit of mostly all white. He seems to announce all his heists before they occur using messages with riddles on them.
 

 
Gin: 

Member of the Black Organization with long silver hair and a black hat. He's extremely brutal and seems to be extremely good at deductive reasoning, or at least making sure he can cover his tracks and eliminate all who find out about him. He's usually seen with Vodka.
 

 
Vodka: 

Member of the Black Organization who always wears sunglasses and a black hat. Vodka seems to have a habit of getting caught/not covering his tracks and it's usually Gin who fixes the problem. He's usually seen with Gin.
 

 
Kazuha Tooyama: 

Much like Ran is to Shin'ichi, Kazuha is Heiji's childhood friend. Both argue with eachother alot, but Kazuha and Heiji clearly care a great deal for eachother.
 

 
Sharon Vinyard: 

The mother of Chris Vinyard and a good friend of Yukiko's. She died about a year before the Tropical Land incident.
 

 
Chris Vinyard (Vermouth): 

Daughter of Sharon. Upon the death of her mother, Chris was bombarded with questions as to her private life with her mother to which her only response was, "A secret makes a woman, woman." Akai Shuichi refers to her as a "Rotten Apple".
 

 
Akai Shuichi: 

A man of few words. He is working for the F.B.I. Ran mistook him at first for the serial killer on the loose in New York. He's had a confrontation with Vermouth before, but Vermouth escaped.
