Biography
Shinichi Kudo (Japanese: 工藤 新一, Hepburn: Kudō Shin'ichi) was born to the renowned mystery author, Yusaku Kudo, and the former actress, Yukiko Kudo nee Fujimine. At age four, he started Kindergarten at age 4 where he encountered a young girl, whom was crying about the name tag that got stolen from her by some bullies. While on a date with his childhood friend Ran Mouri, the famous high school detective Shinichi Kudo encounters two men from a secret criminal organization who force feed him a strange poison that causes his body to shrink back to first grade age. However, due to a rare side-effect, he shrinks to the form of a young child except for his nervous system and therefore he still has the personality, memories, and incredible deductive ability of his teenage self.
Overview
Personality and attributes
In appearance, Jimmy Kudo was an above-average height Japanese teenager with a light-complexion, pale skin and a thin yet athletic build. He has blue eyes and short dark brown/black hair with a cowlick in front and distinctive tuft in the back. Shinichi bears a striking resemblance to his father, Yusaku Kudo albeit a less defined jawline and minus his father's mustache. Often, he is well-noted as very handsome as he became very popular with the girls around his age, regularly getting love letters, which has only grown since becoming a famous detective. Shinichi often appears in his high school uniform, but he also wears a suit and tie or regular clothing depending on the occasion. When Conan turns back into Shinichi by using baijiu or the prototype antidote, Shinichi will wear whatever appropriately sized clothing he can find at the time.
Powers and abilities
Shinichi is already well-known as a brilliant young detective, the 'savior of the police force', for solving many difficult cases the professionals could not. He wa extremely intelligent, and even from a young age was very intuitive and observant. Due to the influence of his father and the general laissez-faire environment at home, he has long been an incessant and persistent reader, especially of mystery novels. His father, Yusaku started taking Shinichi to crime scenes as a child, which inspired him to be a detective. Due to his bluntness and matter-of-fact manner, Shinichi can come off as rude and arrogant. However, he cares deeply about human life, unable to understand how any reason could be sufficient motive for murder, and is convinced that driving a culprit to suicide is no better than murder itself. The few times he has been too late to save a life haunt him throughout the series. He also thought of other people's feelings, and in some cases he has been willing to conceal facts from a certain parties in order spare them from being scarred from the ugly truth.
