Detective Conan/Characters/Osakan Personalities

Heiji Hattori/ Harley Hartwell
"Voiced by Ryo Horikawa (JP)"

Mandatory naming note: Hattori came from Inspector Hattori of Tantei Monogatari who worked with Kudo Shunsaku. Heiji came from Zenigata Heiji, a fictional police officer in the Edo era.

Tropes associated with him:


 * Accidental Pervert:
 * Always Second Best: When Heiji and Shinichi work together, they're each other's equal and will often arrive at the same conclusions. But when they compete with each other or their deductions differ, Shinichi usually wins.
 * Ambiguously Brown: He's clearly Japanese, and he inherited his dark skin from his grandfather, but we don't know ultimately what that comes from.
 * Alliterative Name
 * Amateur Sleuth
 * Blade Run
 * Catch Phrase: "Ahou," Kansai Regional Accent version of Baka.
 * Common Eye Colors
 * Ditzy Genius: While a bit controversial, Heiji is sometimes thought as such. He's a brilliant detective, but can't for the life of him remember to call Shinichi 'Conan' when they're in public. He also has a bit of a Hair-Trigger Temper, particularly when talking to his childhood friend Kazuha.
 * So much so that one fanfiction diagnosed Heiji with Asperger's Syndrome in a fictionalized psych profile.
 * Which is a rather unfortunate case of Did Not Do the Research, as very few of the traits match the Syndrome, and this is more of a case of Art Major Psychology.
 * The Idiot From Osaka: Prankster sub-type
 * Improvised Weapon: He often improvised whatever he has for a sword.
 * Kansai Dialect
 * Kendo Team Captain: And has apparently done pretty well against the famously tough members of the Osaka PD.
 * Obfuscating Stupidity: He made repeated use of this, particularly drawing on his "Osakanisms" to cover up whenever he uses Conan's real name by accident.
 * Oblivious to Love: Heiji is apparently utterly incapable of realizing his feelings for Kazuha or vice versa; even going so far as to believe
 * The Rival: To Shinichi. They're close friends and usually work together in cases, but on several occasions Heiji tries to prove he can solve the case before Shinichi. Most of the time, he fails.
 * Secret Keeper: A rather bad one, however, constantly blurting out Conan's real identity and then scrambling to cover it up.
 * Surprisingly Good English
 * Teen Genius

Kazuha Touyama / Kirsten Thomas (Anime)/ Katrina Tolliver (Wii)
"Voiced by Yuko Miyamura (JP)"

Tropes associated with her:


 * Action Girl: Aikido expert. Very helpful when par her with Ran's Karate.
 * Badass in Distress: In the Kyoto movie, she was kidnapped and used as a bait for Heiji and Conan. Once she was released by Conan, though, they both helped Heiji in his fight.
 * Cannot Spit It Out:
 * Clingy Jealous Girl: Played for Laughs in her first appearance.
 * Hair Decorations: Spices up her ponytail with colorful hairbands.
 * She Cleans Up Nicely: Invoked on her in the seventh movie.
 * She Is All Grown Up: The Stranger from 10 Years Ago OAV shows an older Kazuha who has ditched the Tomboyish Ponytail and attained Tall, Dark and Bishoujo status. And is still a Hot-Blooded Tsundere.
 * Shorttank
 * Tomboyish Ponytail
 * Tsundere: Type A this time, meaning she's more temper-y than Ran.

Heizou Hattori/ Martin Hartwell


Heiji's father and the police commissioner of Osaka.


 * Eyes Always Shut
 * Jerkass: At his worst
 * Reasonable Authority Figure: As a high-ranked commisioner, his work is mostly a paperwork and negotiations-centered one (unlike what Hollywood and comic books say) so he leaves the action more to people like Kazuha's father or Chief Ohtaki.

Shizuka Hattori, nèe Ikenami/ Melinda Hartwell.
"Voiced by Masako Katsuki (JP)"

Heiji's strongwilled mother.


 * Hot Mom
 * Lady of War: Former kendo champion, and has NOT lost her skills.
 * Older Than They Look: Is older than Kogoro and Eri, and yet looks quite young.
 * Paper Fan of Doom
 * Yamato Nadeshiko: With heavy emphasis in the will of iron.

Chief Touyama/ Chief Thomas
Kazuha's father, and a high-ranked detective


 * Da Chief
 * Hot Dad: Some fans think he's very Tall, Dark and Handsome
 * No Name Given: First name, we mean.

Goro Ohtaki/ Inspector Odin
"Voiced by Norio Wakamoto (JP)"

Mandatory naming note: Otaki's name comes from the character Gorozo of Otaki from the long-running Onihei Hankachou series.


 * The Lestrade: The Megure to Heiji's Shinichi
 * Masaya Onosaka: in the flashbacks to his youth
