〈 CHARACTER INFO 〉
CHARACTER NAME: Hattori Heiji
CHARACTER AGE: 17
SERIES: Detective Conan
CHRONOLOGY: Ch. 840
CLASS: Lawful Good/Hero
HOUSING: Preferably with castmates, aka Conan
BACKGROUND:
In the world of Detective Conan, everything is backed up by logic and reason. The series flirts with deception and how things are not always what they appear. Including different murder methods, supernatural happenings, and tricks. In this series anything can be explained provided by the right facts and reasoning. It's a over-the-top, mundane world that is closely paralleled to our own.
The series is essentially a mystery-genre filled with various murder, crime, puzzles, tension, and comedy. The lead protagonist, Shinichi Kudo, who follows a pair of suspicious men is knocked out by one of them. In their attempt to kill him discreetly with a drug prototype, he was accidentally de-aged by 10 years and now lives with his childhood friend and her father who is also a detective. Using her father as a disguise, Shinichi vigorously solves mysteries case by case. In this, he hopes to find out who the organization is that drugged him is and if there's a way to revert back to his original self. His journey for answers causes him to meet new and interesting people along the way and form friendships he would have never had prior to his incident.
Heiji’s particular role in this was, at first, to serve as Shinichi/Conan’s rival in a competition to solve mysteries before the other (and sometimes still is.) As the story progresses, Heiji learns the truth behind Shinichi’s de-aging incident and allies with him to help bring organization behind it to justice and return Shinichi to normal. Often he will invite Shinichi and company to Osaka for cases in the event that they’re related to the organization, or visit Tokyo to touch bases with Shinichi and assist him with cases. On an unrelated note, Heiji will invite him for the sole purpose of socializing with him. While Shinichi isn’t upfront about the relationship they share, Heiji accepts it for what it is. Amongst the other characters, the two of them understand each other on a level where most of the others are incapable of connecting. The foundation of this friendship is what lead Heiji to help Shinichi as much as he does. He has even become protective of Shinichi over the course of their adventures.
Here is a provided summary of his canon involvement in the series. At your own discretion, there is also a brief player written synopsis of his history in the manga
PERSONALITY:
Heiji is some what of a typical high school student. Give or take a few of his unique quirks, for instance, he's more intelligent than most boys his age. He eidetic memory that allows him to have a library of trivial (and sometimes media based) knowledge. Anywhere from the process of decomposition, to facts about baseball are at his disposal.
Where most people find a corpse frightening and become squeamish, Heiji is first to jump to it and decipher the cause of death or if it's even dead. Mysteries fascinate him like kids to an interesting video game. If a case emanates you can bet Heiji will be there ready to solve it. He could be described to be impulsive and even a bit absent-minded at times. His father described Heiji as so: "He's like a kid runnin' on pure instinct."
Heiji lacks respect for higher authority. When his father (knowingly mind you) punched Heiji to the ground, he belittled him and told him to go home because this case wasn't his business. Instead Heiji rebelled and continued working on it despite his father's action. He also has a knack for calling his mom old woman, and he doesn't even properly address Mouri with an honorific which is considered rude in Japanese culture.
Additionally, and unlike Kudo, Heiji is more hot-blooded. He's quick to lose his temper, patience, or otherwise become agitated. While he can keep his composure most of the time, it's still reveals itself enough to be notable. Hakuba actually berated Heiji for his imprudence regarding a crime scene about how he disrupted the crime scene. However, this did not fully compromise the deduction as he was still able to figure out the killer. The culprit herself complimented on him it. Saying she didn't know detectives like him still existed. Also while solving cases, Heiji refers to corpses as stiffs.
At first, Heiji was rather negligent if a culprit killed themselves after being found out. During a case with Kudo where Kudo prevented a woman from committing suicide, Heiji said. "Maybe we shoulda let her die." In which Kudo responded "A detective who corners someone with logic, but lets them commit suicide...is no different from a murder." Since then, Heiji has followed this, and during another case where a culprit was going to shoot himself in the head, Heiji intervened and wound up taking a bullet to the abdomen because of it. Ultimately he will no longer allow the guilty kill themselves.
While not always applied, Heiji is excessively expressive. An extroverted soul if you will. He is often seen prompting others (or Kudo) to do things, instigating others, and lightly playing off somewhat serious manners. When in a good mood, he'll have a huge grin on his face (though not the same kind of grin he gets when he's solving/solved a case) and almost comes off a bouncy. This behavior only amplified when he's trying to sneak around the others to eagerly speak to Kudo. Of course this goes without saying, that no matter how intelligent he is. Heiji is only human and makes mistakes. He will sometimes (more like all the time) address "Conan" as Kudo. Ran will over hear this, and Heiji has to quickly cover his tracks so she doesn't find out.
One way to explain his overly expressive behavior is when he is annoyed. He calls a lot of the people around him "morons" or "idiots". Not just that, but he'll yell at them too. Heiji called his own mother an idiot. When Mouri and Ran went banging on his door during his nap he opened it to yell at them. Also when Ran and Kazuha, or even just Ran alone pester and nag him he'll scream at them about how annoying they are.
At first Heiji was snarky to Kudo and looking always trying to out preform him. Sometimes he still act in this way, but the more Heiji bonds with Kudo the closer they become. Now the west side detective will go out of his way to not only protect Kudo from harms way, but help him too. Such things include offering to help him out when converting between his original self and child self. Another when Kudo called him asking if he could get information on an individual named Eisuke. Heiji even likes to refer Kudo as his friend, rival or not. (Though they do act like friends.)
This trait also applies to Kazuha, a childhood friend of Heiji's. He is naturally overprotective of her and will do irrational things to see to it that she goes unharmed. When they were in a hanging off the cliff side by a branch Kazuha wanted Heiji to live on. In attempt to force him to let her go he stabbed his hand with an arrow, but he refused such action. Another during the time they both were held hostage in an attic. Heiji continually exasperate the female lawyer and so he was the only one physically harmed. (Heiji had placed such great faith in Kudo that Kudo would be the one to find and save them.)
He makes it very clear and very prominent that he doesn't believe in the misconception of curses, magic, and ghosts. To him, it's a trick and there must be a logical explanation for it. Folklore and scary stories hardly scare him because he doesn't believe them to exist. Of course when uncovering such nonsense with truth, how can he believe it? He and Kudo share this trait in common. Hell, when they were at a magic show with the girls they were theorizing explanations as to how the magician was pulling the stunts on the stage. If someone claims otherwise it is 100% likely you're not going to convince him of it being true.
He does make it a point to carry around a lucky charm that Kazuha made herself. While he doesn't take the charms seriously (as far as he's willing to admit), he is considerate enough to keep it around because Kazuha is a special person to him. He will sometimes blame the charms on his horrible luck as he is often injured during the cases he solves with Kudo. It got to the point where his mom went undercover to see if Mouri was fit enough to continue having her son around because his injuries escalated.
Heiji is painfully oblivious to the concept of love. He's not very good at understanding women either. The most he can unveil is one time in Okinawa with Kudo, the two were deducting bathing suits based on exterior composure and appearance of women. Anything deeper than that and he's lost. Kazuha will continually give him hints to her feelings for him, but he never catches on. It doesn't help that he is insisted on them being childhood friends, in fact almost like brother and sister. He even mistook a 'nervous almost confession' with because they're 'feeling hungry.' When in reality their feelings run deeper than that and more intimate. Heiji is also oblivious to his own feelings for her. There were some moments where he wanted to confess to her, but chicken out half way and changed the subject to something ridiculous in comparison.
One thing you'll notice about Heiji every time you see him, and I mean every time, is the fact that he wears a beige baseball cap with a dark visor. On it is the abbreviation "SAX". (Parody of SOX) Having said that, baseball is his favorite sport and he follows it actively. You will almost never see him without his cap. The cap is even used as an instrument. Like during cases, if he flips his hat forward, where the bill becomes in front and worn properly, it means he's close to solving a case.
POWER:
Reality Warping: Heiji will be able to conjure, dismiss, or change things around. For example, he will be able to summon a shinai by warping one into existence. This will be limited to what he believes to be real.
Magic: He will have control over elements such as water, air, fire, and earth.
Telepathy: Heiji can receive and transmit thoughts. However, he will be unable to read minds unless the thought is directed at him specifically.
〈 CHARACTER SAMPLES 〉
COMMUNITY POST (VOICE) SAMPLE:
Oi! Someone wanna tell me what's goin' on here?
[Of all the things that could have happened, organized kidnapping had to be one of them. At least it was better than being killed, but the extra effort was worth noting.]
Some rude woman told me that we're involved with somethin' big. Kidnappin' fer the sake of justice is hardly an civil act.
LOGS POST (PROSE) SAMPLE:
Some time had passed since his arrival had taken place. Due to discrepancies in what Heiji believed to be justice, and the overall state of his situation, he refused to fully ally himself with these so-called heroes. Thus, the tattoo on his wrist read Unsettled. In the mean time, rather than directing his efforts to support them, he was bent on solving the mystery behind the motive. The detective would assist them somewhat, if only so he could prove his own hypotheses. Unfortunately, Heiji found it hard to believe and thought it to be some kind of a fabrication of the truth. That or they legitimately thought it to be real and they were all delusional. He would admit the tricks before him were well thought out, and even well executed.
It helped that he studied American culture to some degree, and was fluent in the English language well before coming here (unwillingly). It made adapting to his new environment much easier. Though others had claimed that they were suddenly fluent upon arrival, it was yet another issue he was working to address. No one could magically learn a language overnight and the only explanation that was provided, Heiji disagreed with.
Eventually he would touch base with Kudo to see if either of them had overlapping deductions in the hope that they could rule out possibilities. Of all the people that could have been taken with him, he was glad it was Kudo. Between the two of them, they would be able to solve it that much faster.
With the amount of people convinced that what transpired around them was reality, it would be hard to fish for information that wasn't compromised by the people he was fishing it from. His inability to believe he had his very own powers made it difficult, at times, to control them. Thus his reasoning for his own supernatural outbursts not only upset Heiji, but caused him several complications.
