As we all know, the super-long "Detective Conan" has countless detectives, murderers, members of the Black Order, and dragon sets that only appear for a while. The main line characters are still good to say, and the role of the dragon set is just a little bit, but it can't help but give them names, so how to give them names has become a set of problems for the author.
However, how can this be difficult to get the old fritter aoyama of the comic book industry? Naturally, he had a set of methods for naming names.
The first move is the role of other works + corresponding to the voice actor or actor's name
This is a very flattering method, and it can be used directly. The most famous is the combination of Shinichi's parents, Yusaku Kudo' name, the protagonist "Toshisaku Kudo" and his actor Yusaku Matsuda, who is the heroine of the manga "Lupin III", and her original voice actress "Nijido Yukiko".
As a fan of Mobile Suit Gundam, Tsuyoshi Aoyama naturally will not let go of this work. The name and pseudonym "Toru Amuro" is derived from Amuro Rei and his voice actor Toru Koguya in Mobile Suit Gundam. In Japanese, "Shimoya" is homophonous with "Furuya", "zero" is homophonous with "Rei", "Amuro" is homophonous with "Amuro", and "through" is homophonous with "Che".
Shuichi Akai is a combination of the nickname "Red Comet" by the character Shaya in Mobile Suit Gundam and his voice actor Shuichi Ikeda. Shuichi Ikeda is also a voice actor for Shuichi Akai. The name of Shuichi Akai's sister, Makoto Seiryo, is derived from the harmonic sound of Serra Mas, Shaya's sister in Mobile Suit Gundam.
There is also a direct use of voice actor names, which is generally the need for animation to appear a new character, and the serial manga has added this character according to its requirements, the most famous of which is Takagi Shigeru, who was originally a tool man and then became a winner in life. His colleagues Chiba kazunobu are named after voice actor Kazunobu Chiba, and it is said that even his appearance is referenced.
The second trick is to make use of historical figures
Directly changing the names of historical figures is also a good idea, and even the relationship and personality of historical figures can be integrated into the anime characters. One of the most distinctive is the people of Nagano Prefecture. During the Sengoku period, there were five battles of Kawanakajima in Nagano Prefecture. Among them, the legendary one is naturally Takeda Shingen, the tiger of Kai. Therefore, many of the people in Nagano Prefecture are historical figures taken from or related to the Takeda family.
Yamato Kansuke's name is derived from Takeda Shingen's legendary military master Kansuke Yamamoto, whose name is originally derived from Takeda Shingen's side room Suwa Mito (also known as Yubuki and Lake Hime), and in the novel the two of them also frown under Takeda Shingen's eyes. Uehara's ex-husband is called Yoshiro Torada, Takeda Shingen is known as Taro, nicknamed Kai no Tiger, and the name is self-evident. However, the name of Takeda Shingen, the tiger of Kai, was given to another character, that is, the Kawa Genjin, who was respected by Yamato And others.
There are many examples of historical figures, such as Kuroda Hyobe's name derived from Kuroda's famous military division during the Sengoku period. The name Zhufu Gaoming comes from Zhuge Kongming, who is known as "Wolong" (written "Fulong" in Japanese). Hideyoshi Haneda derives his name from Yoshiharu Hanabi, the first person in Japanese shogi history to achieve a seven-crown title, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who ruled Japan during the Momoyama period. The names of seven samurai under Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the "Seven Guns of The Mountains", were also used in the anime.
The Hattori Heiji family is also a gathering place for characters in the era novels with historical archetypes. His name is derived from the protagonist Qian-shaped Heiji in "The Trap of Money-shaped Heiji". His father, Hirazo, is derived from the protagonist Hasegawa Hirazo in Onihira Criminal Account. His mother's original surname was Chi Bo, and she was derived from Shotaro Ikeba, the author of "Onihira Criminal Account". The name of the future patriarch Toyama Ginshiro is derived from the name of the Edo period, Kinshiro Toyama. However, the names of future wives Toyama and Ye have nothing to do with historical figures, as will be mentioned below.
The third trick is detective big union
As a detective reasoning comic, the use of the detective's name is naturally not less. Conan of Edogawa originated from Edogawa, known as the "father of Japanese mystery fiction", and the British mystery novelist Arthur Conan Doyle, who shaped Sherlock Holmes, a world-famous detective. Kudo Shinichi Shinichi has a theory that comes from the author of the earliest mystery novel "Murder on Mog Street", Edgar Poe, the Japanese word for "Ellen" is similar to a pronunciation of "new"; "Slope" is pronounced with a long tone, which is represented in the kana as "ー", similar to the Kanji "一".
Maori Kogoro is derived from the harmonic sound of "Morrie" in the name of French writer Maurice LeBron, and the famous detective Wise Kogoro in Edogawa's chaotic step. Princess Yingli is derived from the speed reading of Ellery Quinn's "Ellery". Maoriland is derived from the abbreviated harmonics of the French writer Maurice LeBron, with "Mouri" and "Mouri" and "Ran" and "Ran".
Grey Plains Lament comes from the character Gray (Gray) by the British novelist P.D. James, and "Gray" comes from the character V. Grey by the British novelist Sarah Perryski. Pronunciation of "I" in I. Vorschusky. There is also a saying that "mourning" comes from the "I" of Irene Adler, the woman who defeated Holmes.
Dr. Kasa's name is more interesting, his full name is "Dr. Kasa". "Akasa" is derived from the Japanese pronunciation of the British mystery novelist "Grandma" Agatha, and "Doctor" is derived from the mad scientist Dr. Kim written by Japanese science fiction mystery writer Thirteen Utano. The "Mu Twilight" of Mu Twilight is derived from the Japanese pronunciation of Inspector Megre by the French writer Simnon, and "Thirteen" is derived from the science fiction novelist and mystery novelist Umino Thirteen.
Shintaro Chaki, who came to guest appearances from "Magic Fight", is named after the Japanese pronunciation of "priest" in The famous Detective Father Brown, and Japanese novelist Shintaro Amki. The Yokogou brothers originated from the speculative novelist Masashi Yokomiya, who created Kazunosuke Kaneda. Kiyonaga Matsumoto comes from the writer Kiyoharu Matsumoto, who created "social reasoning". Shiratori Renzaburō is derived from the protagonist of the mystery drama "Furuhata Renzaburō".
The name of the Junior Detective Corps is also novelists. Yoshida's name is derived from the "masked mystery writer" Kitagawa Bushi; The name of Mitsuhiko Marutani is derived from the famous detective Mitsuhiko Asami; and the name of Kojima Motota is derived from the Japanese mystery novelist Komine Moto. The protagonists' active Didan school system is also related to the detective. The Japanese pronunciation of "Teitan" is "teitan", which in turn means the Japanese pronunciation of "tantei" for "detective".
Fourth move: Character traits + color
This trick is less common in Detective Conan, but is used on the "Magic Quick Fight" character who came to make a cameo appearance. The current strange thief Kidd Kuroba Quick Fight is "Black + Strange Thief" ("Fast Bucket" and "Strange Thief" in Japanese); Aoko Nakamori is "Cyan + Beauty Star Nakamori Akira", her father Nakamori Ginzo is "Silver + Nakamori Akira"; Hakuba Detective is "White + Detective".
The fifth trick is to use the names of your friends directly
It is a bit sloppy to use this trick, but it is understandable. The "Wako" of Toyama Kazuha is derived from the name of a female assistant of Aoyama Tsuyoshi. Suzuki Garden is said to be the name of Aoyama's descendants. Miwako Sato is the name of an acquaintance of Tsuyoshi Aoyama. Many of the dragon suit characters that appear in various cases are from the names of fellow cartoonists (too bad...). ）。
