"Kidd the Thief" is a top ten IQ character in Detective Conan, and likes to use magic to find the gem "Pandora" he needs, but there are many things that fans of "Kidd the Strange Thief" don't know.
Detective Conan tells the story of a super-intelligent teenager Shinichi Kudo/Conan Edogawa who spends all his free time solving the case and eventually clashes with a dark organization that decides to kill him, but Shinichi is lucky enough to survive, but becomes smaller and eventually becomes a child, who continues to work hard to solve the case while hunting down the organization.
But when he doesn't deal with murders or fight black organizations, he occasionally deals with a ghost thief known as the "weird thief," but how much do we really know about this weird thief? Well, it turns out that he is a character in Aoyama's early works, which is a cameo in "Detective Conan". Let's get to know this gentleman thief who is also a friend and foe of Conan, maybe there are things you don't know. #名侦探柯南 #
<h1>Has its own special animation plot
</h1>
One thing that is easy for fans to escape is that Kidd is not actually the protagonist in Detective Conan, he has his own appearance anime. In fact, the character of Kidd predates Nobuichi Kudo and Detective Conan for several years, and was first published in Shonen Weekly in 1987. The manga was later adapted into an anime series called Magic Rush, which came out in the fall of 2014 and played 24 episodes in its entirety, transporting us into the world of Kidd the Freak.
<h1>The Mystery Organization and the Organization in Conan are not the same</h1>
It's a bit vague, but Kidd's goal is to fight a mysterious organization whose name we don't actually know. In some circles, it's called the "magical Kidd organization," but that seems to mean that Kidd is actually managing the group, not fighting it. Fans occasionally suspect that the organization and the black-clad organization are the same organization, but writer Tsuyoshi Aoyama has confirmed that this is not the case. In any case, when Kidd learns that the group killed his father, and that he was killed because his father refused to help them find the jewel that can make people immortal, Pandora, he has been trying to lure them out of the darkness and defeat it once and for all.
<h1>Return what he stole
When fans think of Lupin III, because of his personality, everyone thinks of him differently from most other thieves. Compared to Lupin III, Kidd was less dangerous. His goal is to find the so-called Pandora's Jewel before the mysterious organization and thus reveal their crimes. Everything he steals revolves around this goal, and as long as the gem is not Pandora, he returns the gem, hence the name Monster Thief. While he's still a thief, Kidd's goal is closer to saving the world and avenging his father than being selfish and making a fortune by stealing gems.
<h1>In fact, Quick Fight is the third generation of the strange thief Kidd</h1>
Although his name is literally Kidd, In reality Quick Fight isn't the first monster Kidd, and he's not even the second. His father, Black Feather Bandit I, was the first strange thief Kidd, who later disappeared and is said to have died in a mysterious "accident". Kidd's second generation is his father's assistant, trying to trick out the killer of Black Feather Before Kuaidou takes over the job. The third is Quick Fight, where he finds his father's secret room, where his childhood toys are stored, and learns more about the secret world in which his father is immersed.
<h1>His mother was also a thief
Sometimes, it's just a matter of being born to hold your own position, in other words, the Chosen Son, and yes, for Kidd, that's the case. His mother, who may have become a thief earlier than his father, was originally known as The Phantom Lady. As a grand thief, Kidd's mother would steal money from big companies that made money through improper means. At the end of her career as a thief, she began stealing fakes that people sold to make money and handing them over to the police, and in one operation, after being rescued by Kuroharu, Kurohata's father, the two began dating.
<h1>It looks exactly like Shinichi
Kuaidou happens to look almost exactly like The protagonist of "Detective Conan", Kudo Shinichi, the most likely reason is that Aoyama really wants this design to stand out, and he designs all the genius characters similar to the Kudo family, whether it is Hattori, Kodou, or even Osaka's swordplay genius, all portrayed according to Shinichi's mold. Kidd took advantage of this fact several times to help him escape, even though he didn't pretend, and in this way, he even fooled Shinichi's girlfriend, Xiaolan.
<h1>Master of Disguise</h1>
Before becoming Kidd the "Weird Thief", Quick Bucket excelled at magic, and he specialized in magic tricks. As Kidd, his technique seems to go further, and the camouflage technique is also difficult to distinguish between true and false, and with proper preparation, he has successfully imitated dozens of different people. He was able to fit himself into a role without having to consider a person's gender (he had disguised himself as a woman countless times) or stature (he had played various roles from maid to pilot). He even played children and his opponents.
<h1>One of the most popular characters in the show
Usually, the most popular characters in a TV series are usually the main actors, who may not be the main characters, but they are usually characters who appear frequently in the show. But Kidd, the thief, appeared only occasionally, and became the most popular character in online polls at number one or two. It's enough to see Kidd's popularity, and whenever he appears, the plot is so ups and downs, it's imaginative, and we all fit into the game of guessing who Kidd is.
<h1>He named the origin</h1>
Kidd's name has multiple meanings. His surname, "Black Feather," means "Black Feather"—referring to his constant struggle with the law. This is also how "four-leaf clover" is pronounced in Japanese — it happens that a four-leaf clover pendant hangs from the frame of his one-piece glasses. "Kidd" means ghost thief in Japanese, and when the original monster thief Kidd began performing his art, he was known as "International Criminal #1412". When journalists called him "Strange Thief 1412", their messy handwriting was interpreted as "Strange Thief Kidd", which led to the birth of Conan's greatest gentleman thief.
<h1>His story has no ending
Unfortunately, to this day, kidd's story isn't over. Aoyama began animating Detective Conan in the early 90s, and the anime became a hit, causing him to temporarily shelve Kidd's storyline. Since then, the remaining chapters have been adapted into two volumes, published in 2007 and 2017. Finally, if anyone thinks Kidd is a better anime and wants to catch up on the show, they'll have to wait until Detective Conan is over. But this series has exceeded 1,000 chapters and is still increasing, don't give too much hope, maybe it is the "Lifetime" series.
