Ran Mouri

Ran Mori is Shinichi Kudo's friend since elementary school. She loves Shinichi but is afraid to admit her feelings, and denies their relationship is romantic whenever the conversation is brought up. She often worries for his safety and waits for his return. As captain of the karate team and a regional champion, she is able to fend for herself physically against attackers, but is still squeamish when it comes to films and shows in the horror genre. She is also skilled in Judo, like her father. She is very kind and helps anyone in need, even if that person is a potential criminal. In one instance, her kindness to Vermouth prompts the latter to keep Shinichi's identity a secret from the Black Organization. Like Shinichi, she dislikes the idea of killing anyone, including criminals, as she believes criminals should face punishment through the justice system. The Detective Boys views her as a role model and the kids often turns to her for advice. She is skilled in house chores, including sewing, knitting, and cooking, and has very good fortune in games of chance, hardly ever losing in games such as mahjong. She spends most of her home life looking after Conan and her father, and hopes that her father and mother can reconcile their separation. Throughout the series, there are times she has suspected Conan Edogawa to be Shinichi, but Shinichi fools her so that she second guesses herself. In the anime, she is voiced by Wakana Yamazaki in the Japanese dub, and by Colleen Clinkenbeard in Funimation's English dub and by Cristina Vee in Bang Zoom! Entertainment's English dub. In the 2006–07 live-action drama, she was portrayed by Tomoka Kurokawa. Shiori Kutsuna portrays the character in the 2011 drama series. Her name, Ran Mori, originates from Maurice Leblanc (Mo-ri-su Ru-bu-ran), the creator of Arsene Lupin.
