Magic Kaito (Japanese:まじっく快斗,Hepburn:Majikku Kaito) is a Japanesemanga series written and illustrated byGosho Aoyama. It premiered inShogakukan'sshōnen manga magazineWeekly Shōnen Sunday in June 1987. It is Aoyama's firstserialized manga. The story depicts the adventures ofKaito Kuroba, a teenage magician who secretly operates as the internationally wantedphantom thief Kaito Kid.

Though the series was popular in its initial run, Aoyama placed it on hiatus in late 1988—after twotankōbon volumes had been published—in order to focus onYaiba and laterCase Closed. Since then, new installments have been produced very sporadically, often years apart; a third volume was compiled in 1994, a fourth in 2007, and a fifth in 2017; three more chapters were published in 2024. Notwithstanding this, Kaito Kid has (along with several associated characters) made numerous appearances inCase Closed and various spinoff media, achieving much wider recognition through them.

12 animated television specials based on the series have been produced byTMS Entertainment and aired between 2010 and 2012. A 24-episodeanime series titledMagic Kaito 1412 was produced byA-1 Pictures and aired from October 2014 to March 2015.

Synopsis

[edit]

High-school class clownKaito Kuroba, son of world-famous—and deceased—magician Toichi Kuroba, leads a carefree life inTokyo with his childhood friend Aoko Nakamori. However, on the eighth anniversary of his father's death, he stumbles across a hidden section of his home that reveals his father's double life: that of the internationally notorious thief Kaito Kid. Shortly after, he finds his father's elderly aide Konosuke Jii masquerading as Kid in a new series of burglaries; when cornered, Jii admits the "accident" which had killed the elder Kuroba in his final show was actually murder, and the culprits remain at large.

Vowing to avenge his father, Kaito personally assumes Kaito Kid's mantle, and continues the heists for the same reason as Jii: to draw out his father's killers. By day, he maintains the guise of an ordinary high-schooler and his friendship with Aoko, all while knowing her father is a police inspector long-obsessed with capturing Kid.[2]

After many outlandish adventures, Kaito eventually discovers that the killers belong to a mysterious crime syndicate pursuing a legendary jewel known asPandora. Per their sources, Pandora is adoublet—a gem hidden within a larger gem—that glows red under moonlight and sheds "tears" during the passing of the Volley Comet, every 10,000 years. These tears, if drunk, will bestow immortality.[3]

With the comet's next pass fast approaching, Kaito sets out to find—and destroy—Pandora first, turning his focus exclusively to large, long-storied gemstones.

Characters

[edit]
Kaito Kuroba (黒羽 快斗,Kuroba Kaito)
A smart, quirky and arrogant 17-year-old masterillusionist. As Kaito Kid, he occasionally appears in theCase Closed series as an antagonist, but slowly develops aLupin-esque complex. He has some feelings for his childhood friend Aoko Nakamori who he teases constantly. His alter ego is Kaito Kid, agentleman thief who publicly announces his heists; after his heists, he returns the stolen items to their owners. Throughout his escapades he has made many enemies, from semi-friendly detectives (such as Saguru Hakuba andConan Edogawa/Jimmy Kudo) and policemen to rival phantom thieves and vicious professional gangsters. His Japanese voice actor isKappei Yamaguchi and his English voice actors areJerry Jewell forFunimation and Griffin Burns forBang Zoom and Macias Group.
Aoko Nakamori (中森 青子,Nakamori Aoko)
Kaito's best friend since childhood and love interest. She is an obstinate, impulsive and lighthearted girl. She often bickers with Kaito at school. She has feelings for Kaito, although she is afraid of admitting to him. She gets along well with Akako, but unknown to her, Akako envies her. Both girls vie for Kaito's affections. As the daughter of Inspector Nakamori, she despises Kaito Kid, though she is unaware of the irony. Her Japanese voice actresses areAyumi Fujimura in the specials,Mao Ichimichi inMagic Kaito 1412,Detective Conan: The Million-dollar Pentagram, and episode 1187 ofCase Closed,Yukiko Iwai in episode 76 ofCase Closed,Minami Takayama in episode 219 and the fourth OVA ofCase Closed.
Ginzo Nakamori (中森 銀三,Nakamori Ginzō)
Aoko's father (known as Mace Fuller inFunimation'sCase Closed dub), is a loud, aggressiveTokyo Metropolitan Police inspector assigned to capture Kaito Kid.[4] Tirelessly devoted to his work, he is (much to Aoko's dismay) frequently absent-minded at home. His Japanese voice actors areUnshō Ishizuka (1997–2018) andKōji Ishii (2019–present) and his English voice actor is Jay Jones.[5][6]
Konosuke Jii (寺井 黄之助,Jii Kōnosuke)
An elderly man who assisted Toichi Kuroba as both a magician and thief. Eight years after his master's murder, he began a masquerade as Kaito Kid in hopes of luring out the killers; when confronted by Kaito, he confessed the truth and conceded the mantle, becoming Kaito's assistant.[2] By day he owns and operates the Blue Parrotbilliards bar, which Kaito and Aoko sometimes patronize.[7]
Toichi Kuroba (黒羽 盗一,Kuroba Tōichi)
Kaito's (supposedly) deceased father. A world-famous magician, he originated the Kaito Kid costume as a gimmick for aParisian performance, but became a genuine thief in order to divert attention from his wife Chikage's own criminal career, allowing her to retire in peace. Initially known as Phantom Thief 1412 (after hisInterpol criminal code), he embracedKaito Kid as a moniker afterBooker Kudo publicly misread a journalist's scrawl of "1412" asKID.[4] Toichi was killed after impeding a criminal syndicate's pursuit of Pandora. His Japanese voice actor isShūichi Ikeda.
Chikage Kuroba (黒羽 千影,Kuroba Chikage)
Kaito's mother, initially shown as a plain housewife but later revealed to have once been the international thief Phantom Lady. During a heist in Paris, she fell in love with Toichi Kuroba and quit her criminal career to marry him. Even in retirement, she remains a free-spirited globetrotter, and frequently leaves Kaito alone at the Kuroba home in Japan, periodically checking in via video calls. She once tried to persuade her son to give up robbery and start a new life as a magician in Las Vegas. It is strongly implied in the "Midnight Crow" Arc that she knows who is Kaito Corbeau, the mysterious rival of Kaito Kid, who had recently become active in Las Vegas.
Akako Koizumi (小泉 紅子,Koizumi Akako)
A haughty teenagewitch, the world's last practitioner of "Red" sorcery. She delights in magically charming men to worship her, and becomes obsessed with Kaito Kid upon learning that he is destined to be the only man on Earth immune to her. By happenstance she attends the same school as Kaito and Aoko, and realizes Kaito's secret identity when he defies her advances onValentine's Day.[8] Initially, she acts with very few morals, regularly scheming to magically enslave (or even kill) him; in time, however, she comes to admit a genuine affection for him, and begins using her magical resources to warn and aid him against other perils. Her Japanese voice actresses areMiyuki Sawashiro in theMagic Kaito specials,Eri Kitamura inMagic Kaito 1412, andMegumi Hayashibara inCase Closed.
Saguru Hakuba (白馬探,Hakuba Saguru)
Thehalf-British, half-Japanese son of theTokyo Metropolitan Police's Superintendent-General. Renowned across Europe as an amateur detective, he takes an interest in capturing Kaito Kid and resettles in Japan to do so, becoming a major school rival to Kaito.[9] He is highly sophisticated and arrogantly proud of his skills, suspecting Kaito's secret identity almost immediately after their first meeting.[9][10] However, he never succeeds in securing definitive proof.[11] His Japanese voice actors areAkira Ishida in theMagic Kaito specials and inCase Closed, andMamoru Miyano inMagic Kaito 1412.
Snake (スネーク,Sunēku)
The main representative of the syndicate that killed Toichi Kuroba, and continues to pursue the Pandora gem. A vicious hitman, he possesses limited intelligence, but is always well-armed and often supported by several subordinates.[3]

Connections withCase Closed

[edit]

WhileMagic Kaito has always shared a number of elements with Aoyama's later seriesCase Closed (such as the Tropical Land amusement park), Aoyama did not originally view them as a seriousshared universe. When planning aCase Closed storyline in 1997 guest-starring Kaito Kid and Inspector Nakamori (with cameo appearances from Kaito Kuroba in his civilian identity and Aoko Nakamori), he intended for it to be a standalone, with no impact on either series' continuity besides aretroactive origin for Kid's alias.[12][4] However, the story's unexpected popularity inspired many more Kid appearances throughoutCase Closed, and even aMagic Kaito storyline guest-starring a full-grownJimmy Kudo.[13]

In 2006, Aoyama explicitly tiedKaito's backstory into that ofCase Closed, revealing that Toichi Kuroba had not only maintained a rivalry with Booker Kudo as the first Kaito Kid, but tutored both Vivian Kudo and Sharon Vineyard in disguise arts.[14] A 2010 storyline tied the two series closer still, with aCase Closed story introducing Chikage Kuroba's identity as the Phantom Lady immediately followed by aMagic Kaito story explaining her past (as well as the context of Kaito's actions in the present-day).[15]

Despite this, Aoyama has repeatedly stated that the two series exist in separate continuities, in particular citing Akako's sorcery as an element that cannot coexist withCase Closed.[16][17] He has also denied longstanding fan theories that Snake belongs to the "Black Organization" serving asCase Closed's main antagonists, and maintained that—with the one-time exception of 2012's "Mystery Train" arc—Kaito Kid would not have any story involvement with the latter.[18][19]

Production

[edit]

In 1985, having been convinced by university friends to pursue a professional manga career, Aoyama drafted a 40-page one-shot titledNonchalant Lupin (さりげなく ルパン,Sarigenaku Rupan). This story, inspired by Aoyama's childhood love ofmystery andphantom-thief fiction in addition toZoetrope Studios'The Escape Artist (1982), featured a mischievous teenage magician named Kaito Lupin trying to save his childhood friend Aoko Holmes from corrupt school officials.[20][21]

Aoyama initially sentLupin toKodansha'sWeekly Shōnen Magazine, where he met enough approval to win an honorable mention at the thirty-fifth New Manga Awards, but was warned by an editor that his art-style would need modification to "fit" the magazine's general aesthetic if he were hired. The following year, Aoyama approachedShogakukan'sWeekly Shōnen Sunday, which made no such stipulations; heartened, Aoyama quickly expandedLupin into the basis for an ongoing series, renaming its lead characters KaitoKuroba and AokoNakamori and converting its mostly-metaphoricalArsène Lupin motifs into an actual phantom thief identity.[22][17]

Magic Kaito received its first anime adaptation in 2000, with the launch ofCase Closed's direct-to-video OVA series: the first of these OVAs adapted "Yaiba VS. Kaito!" (Vol. 3's fifth chapter, originally published in 1989). The fourth, released in 2004, adapted "Crystal Mother" (Vol. 4's first chapter, originally published in 1995).[34]

Between these two OVAs, theCase Closed anime also adapted "Black Star" (Vol. 4's third and fourth chapters, originally published in 1999) as part ofits 219th episode, a two-hour special. This occupied roughly one-third of the episode, with the other two-thirds adapting an unrelated Kaito Kid story from theCase Closed manga.
