Supernatural Power: Doppo Gin'yaku
Voice Actor: Yoshimasa Hosoya
Personality
Intellectual and strict, he is both an idealist and a realist. He hates disruptions to his schedule and schedules every action down to the second.
He does not approve of letting personal feelings get in the way of work or personal matters, and approaches everything with a cold, ruthless attitude. He is not afraid to use force even against ordinary people, and is often warned by those around him that he tends to become interrogative or threatening, even when simply gathering information.
Supernatural Power
His supernatural power is "Doppo Gin'yaku." In exchange for consuming pages in his notebook, he can materialize objects that represent the words he writes.
A wide range of objects can be created, from wire guns to flashlights, making them highly convenient and versatile, but he cannot create anything larger than the notebook. Anything he has seen and memorized can be regenerated in its original state even if the actual object is destroyed.
Attacks are delayed due to the time taken to write in his notebook, and there is always the risk that he will not be able to use his supernatural powers if his notebook is stolen.

Supernatural Power: Super Deductive Reasoning
Voice Actor: Kamiya Hiroshi
Personality
To put it in a positive light, he has a free-spirited personality, but to put it in a negative light, he has an unruly personality. He takes extraordinary pride in his status as a great detective and in his supernatural powers. When confronted by police who request his help solving murder cases, he mocks them, calling them "incompetent and unable to do anything without his powers."
Supernatural Powers
His power is "Super Deductive Reasoning." He can determine the truth behind a crime just by looking at the scene, and even if he's not present, he can instantly solve a mystery with just the slightest clue.
However, in reality, Ranpo is not a supernatural being; his own intelligence and observation skills are simply outstanding (though he believes he is). Therefore, he is a rare ordinary person, even in a company full of supernatural beings.

Supernatural Power
His supernatural power is "Undeterred by the Rain."
He displays incredible strength and his body becomes abnormally strong.
His body is so stiff that he remains unfazed even when an adult man hits him over the head with enough force to bend an iron pipe, and he can easily throw a minicar and rip out a road sign and swing it around with ease.

Armed Detective Agency Main Characters Summary
The Armed Detective Agency is completely different from the average company that searches for lost dogs and cats or investigates infidelity. Its domain is primarily violent, involving sword fighting and other dangerous cases that cannot be relied upon by the military or police. They have connections with public figures such as the police, politicians, and bureaucrats, and have many loans and connections to them. They are one of the few in Japan to hold a license to practice paranormal activities. Atsushi describes them as "an armed group of twilight agents that governs the space between the world of day and the world of night." As most of their main employees are "people with special abilities" who possess "paranormal abilities," they are also commonly referred to as the "group of paranormal abilities." However, the other mob employees are ordinary people without "supernatural powers," and only Edogawa Ranpo is a "detective" with the company's name on it.
