You know, for all that Kaito gets compared to Arsène Lupin because of Kaitou KID... Toichi is actually a much more fitting Lupin-expy than Kaito.

Toichi has:

fallen in love with a stranger, thief woman ✅

kissed her out of nowhere after they just met ✅

became a dramatic, fancy thiefman✅

escaped/faked his death ✅

abandoned his son ✅

...which are things that Lupin has ALSO done.

From this angle, Magic Kaito can be seen as the story of the child of a "Lupin", left to deal with the aftermath of their father's impulsive, criminal life.
