If the girlfriend of Kudo Shinichi, the "Great Detective of the East" in Detective Conan, is Mouri Ran, then the girlfriend of Hattori Heiji, the "Great Detective of the West," is Toyama Kazuha! She's a different character from Ran, and is one of the heroines with many fans. Kazuha has a very expressive face, and her emotions are easy to see. Here, we'll introduce 10 of her charms!
Characteristic 1: Toyama Kazuha is a bright, energetic tomboy!

Ran is a character who only uses karate when she's angry or against criminals, and is usually a quiet and gentle type, but Kazuha is usually aggressive! She's the type of person who acts quickly without thinking about the consequences when she thinks of something, and she has a loud voice and is often depicted shouting "Heiji!" when talking to Heiji, even if there are many people around.
She is often reckless and easily gets angry

If she is concerned about something, Kazuha will not be satisfied unless she thoroughly interrogates it. There are many scenes where she interrogates Heiji in particular, and she often gets angry when Heiji evades her questions. However, unlike Ran, who instinctively uses her hands and feet when angry, Kazuha is the type who shouts and intimidates. Watching her arguing with Heiji is kind of endearing.
Characteristic 2: Kazuha Toyama's charm points are her big ribbon and ponytail

The charm point (?) of the same heroine Ran is her horn-like hairstyle that has evolved since the beginning of the series, but Kazuha's charm point is also her hairstyle. That's a big ribbon and a ponytail! Kazuha is strong-willed and tomboyish, but this girly fashion is also one of her charms.
Gap moe? Kazuha is cute with her hair down!

Kazuha usually wears her hair in a ponytail with a big ribbon, giving off a strong image of short hair, but when she lets go of the ponytail, she transforms from a beautiful girl into a long-haired beauty! She exudes a demure atmosphere, a stark contrast to her usual lively image. However, without the ribbon and ponytail, Kazuha's character is half gone... but maybe that hairstyle is part of "Kazuha" now.
Characteristic 3: Kazuha Toyama is always with Heiji

When watching Detective Conan, Heiji has appeared alone several times, but Kazuha has never appeared alone, and she always appears with Heiji. Whenever Kazuha appears, whether it be when they go to Tokyo or when Conan and the others come to Kansai, Heiji and her friends are together. This is no longer just a childhood friend.
Together even when apart! There is a picture of Heiji inside the amulet

Kazuha's amulet was confiscated by the police after a certain incident. The police confiscated it because it may be related to the incident, but Kazuha panics. The reason is the contents of the amulet! Kazuha had secretly placed a picture of Heiji inside the amulet, fearing that someone would see it. In the end, Heiji sees what's inside...
Characteristic #4: Kazuha Toyama, who loves Heiji
Source: Detective Conan ©Gosho Aoyama/Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, TMS
If you've watched the anime, 100% of people will probably notice this without any explanation, but Kazuha loves Heiji. However, he was unable to express his feelings and ended up content with being childhood friends... He once mustered up the courage to confess in an attempt to break out of their relationship, but due to Heiji's bad manners, his confession ended in failure.
Of course, Heiji also likes Kazuha

Again, anyone who watches anime will have noticed that Heiji also likes Kazuha. He has had this feeling since he was a child, and in fact, Kazuha was his first love. However, Heiji's personality is also childlike, and he is not very honest about his feelings. When the atmosphere gets good, he uses silly words to cover it up, and Kazuha doesn't realize his true feelings, and their relationship continues as it is.
Characteristic #5: Kazuha Toyama is good at cooking
Source: Detective Conan ©Gosho Aoyama/Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, TMS
This may be rude, but at first glance, Kazuha doesn't seem like she's good at cooking. If anything, she looks like the type of person who would explode a pot. But in reality, she's good at cooking and has a domestic side! She also looks good cooking in an apron.
She also has a girly side, not liking ghosts
Source: Detective Conan ©Gosho Aoyama/Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, TMS
All the women in Detective Conan have incredible mental strength, probably because they are strong-willed and have encountered many murder cases, but like Ran, Kazuha has a girly side, not liking ghosts. Both of them have impressive willpower and fighting power, but perhaps they have a difficult time dealing with people they can't directly touch?
Characteristic 6: Toyama Kazuha, best friend of the East heroine, Mouri Ran
Source: Detective Conan © Aoyama Gosho/Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, TMS
In anime with double heroines, even if they seem to get along on the surface, they are actually rivals who like the same person... but since the people they like are different (Ran and Shinichi, Kazuha likes Heiji), there is no need to worry about that. On the contrary, they became best friends, as they couldn't express their feelings to their childhood friends, and supported each other's romance.
Did the two have a bad relationship in the beginning?

Although Kazuha and Ran are now best friends, their first impression of each other was terrible. The main reason... or rather, the whole reason is Kazuha's misunderstanding, is that she became suspicious of the relationship between Ran and Heiji. Even though they are not yet lovers, when she suspects that another woman is flirting with Heiji, she clearly displays her hostility and attacks him.
Characteristic #7: Kazuha Toyama has surprisingly sharp observational skills
Source: Detective Conan ©Gosho Aoyama/Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, TMS
Perhaps it's because she often acts together with Heiji and has seen many crime scenes, but Kazuha's observational skills are so sharp that it's hard to believe she's an ordinary high school girl. They seem to have a very sharp perspective, as they make their own deductions and a random word becomes the key to solving a case.
However, when it comes to love, the two are disappointingly insensitive...
Source: Detective Conan ©Gosho Aoyama/Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, TMS
The West's great detective and a high school girl with a sharp perspective. You'd think that if two people like that were in love, they'd immediately understand each other's feelings, but they're disappointingly insensitive when it comes to romance... In terms of their romantic relationship, they seem to be one step behind Ran and Shinichi, who are able to communicate their feelings to each other in their own way.
Characteristic 8: Kazuha Toyama's father is the head of the criminal investigation department of the Osaka Prefectural Police
Source: Detective Conan ©Gosho Aoyama/Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, TMS
It is well known that Heiji's father is the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police and is a super famous person who appears on TV, but Kazuha's father also appears as the head of the criminal investigation department of the Osaka Prefectural Police. Her skills are incredible, and she is best friends with Heiji's father and is trusted by him immensely. By the way, Kazuha's mother has not yet had a chance to appear, so her character has not been revealed.
Characteristic #9: Toyama Kazuha is a skilled Aikido practitioner with a second dan!
Source: Detective Conan ©Gosho Aoyama/Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, TMS
It's well-known that Ran is a karate master, but Kazuha is also a very skilled Aikido practitioner. Her skill is 2nd dan in Aikido! In some cases, she even easily handles the perpetrator of the crime with her Aikido skills. Don't miss the cuteness of Kazuha in her casual clothes, but she also looks very attractive in her judo uniform, so be sure to check her out!
Kazuha's Aikido skills are amazing, but she often finds herself in trouble
Source: Detective Conan ©Gosho Aoyama/Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, TMS
Kazuha's fighting skills are impeccable, but when she gets involved in an incident, she often finds herself in trouble and displays her overwhelming "heroine power." At such times, Heiji always rushes to the scene and rescues Kazuha from danger, but sometimes Heiji says something meaningful at the same time... but once the danger is over, he pretends not to notice, so the relationship between the two doesn't progress, which makes her anxious.
Characteristic #10: A love rival appears for Toyama Kazuha!
Source: Detective Conan ©Gosho Aoyama/Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, TMS
Although they have not yet confessed their feelings to each other, Heiji was thought to have fewer rivals than Shinichi, who was popular with his seniors and juniors. However, the situation changed completely when Momiji appeared in the movie version. In front of Kazuha and the others, she boldly calls Heiji her "future husband" and gets close to him, approaching him in a way that Kazuha wouldn't be able to.
Summary of the energetic heroine Toyama Kazuha
Source: Detective Conan ©Gosho Aoyama/Shogakukan, Yomiuri TV, TMS
Kazuha is a lively high school girl who speaks in Kansai dialect. She speaks very bluntly and directly about anything except love, and her reckless behavior is refreshing to watch. However, when it comes to love, she is quite shy and quickly turns into a maiden...but that side of her is also part of Kazuha's charm, so be sure to check her out!
