#he's also fantastic at poking holes in other detectives' theories

[sugar-konpeito]

kogoro is one of my favorite characters, but i never post about him because i never have thoughts about him. i just like him

#i do have a conspiracy theory about how he was raised but i don't know if his parents ever get talked about #i think that guy was abused basically.. #i also think he's brilliant but his unhealthy coping mechanisms hold him back #i'm not sure how he could clean up his act though because japan's mental health resources seem so bad..😭 #kogoro mouri #dcmk #he's so good at researching; like conan makes fun of him for making little cheat sheets and not just remembering stuff but NOT EVERYBODY #HAS ENCYCLOPEDIC MEMORY LIKE YOU LITTLE DUDE #research was harder in the 90s and he puts a lot of work into compiling reliable info on pretty obscure/specific topics #he's also fantastic at poking holes in other detectives' theories #he makes certain their reasoning is air tight by making them find evidence to support nearly every claim they make #it may or may not be on purpose but it ends up helpful either way #it can seem like he's getting in the way but finding flaws in the reasoning is so important #he does have a tendency to look at things from a psychological perspective (instead of a physical evidence one) and can fill in conan's #blind spots #he also reminds me of my mom because he's a P.I. and a natural marksman :>
