Fake name? Akai Shuichi or Sera Masumi

Post by Conan 48:69 »

Mizunashi Rena is a fake name, real name is Hondou Hidemi, Mizunashi Rena is actually a mnemonic for 007, the service number of fictional secret agent James Bond. "Mizunashi", meaning "no water", is a subtle reference to zero. "Rena" is a contraction of the numbers zero (rei) and seven (nana). Hondou from Hidemi Hondou comes from Bondo (ボンド), the Japanese pronounciation of (James) Bond.

Eisuke's name comes from Bondo (ボンド), the Japanese pronunciation of (James) Bond

Eisuke and Hidemi are brother and sister since their eyes are identical, so it can assume that Akai and Sera are brother and sister too since Sera has bags under her eyes identical to Akai Shuichi's. Also, Sera Masumi's name is also incredibly similar to Mobile Suit Gundam character Sayla Mass (セイラ・マス, Seira Masu). Akai's name is derived from Sayla Mass's older brother's name, Char Anzable. Furthermore, Conan thinks Sera is familiar somehow, like they have met before or she looks resemble to someone he knows.

If they are brother and sister, then either Akai Shuichi or Sera Masumi is fake name, then Akai or Sera is a real surname among them. Perhaps Shuichi and Masumi are real names but they are adopted by different parents after their real parents passed away when they are little. Or maybe one used father's surname, the other used mother's surname after their parents separated. And Akai once using a fake name Moroboshi Dai while infiltrated BO, so maybe Akai Shuichi is fake name too, but there is no need to use a fake name in front of his fellow FBI members.

The title of File 604 is "Older Sister and Younger Brother", a chapter where Eisuke and Hidemi confirmed as brother and sister, then when Akai and Sera are confirmed as brother and sister, the title of that chapter will be "Older Brother and Younger Sister".


Let's compare their eyes to see if they are identical.

Their posture is very alike right?

I love this logic, really.

As to the topic...

One could be a fake name, yes, but it could also be that they're half-siblings, or as you suggested, that each took one parent's surname.  I haven't seen much of MSG, but I imagine that whatever is the case with those siblings also applies here, given the other similarities.

Or maybe Sera used a fake name in order to investigate secretly about Shuichi's death...

If Akai Shuichi is a fake name. Wouldn't that mean that sera would be a fake sister? Her name sera (and Sayla Mass) would be connected to a fake name :x

Subaru's name is also fake, but he isn't a fake (or scar) Akai. Or is he? I think we need Chekhov to answer that question.

Also I think it was said that Okiya also referenced an attack??/weapon?? of Char Anzable.  or so I remember reading in one forum post here.

If we go after that "eye logic" almost half or more of the characters in this manga would be siblings :|
It could just be a coincidence, Gosho could have done it to confuse people
I don't believe in said topic or that Akai is Sera since Akai still has visible cheekbones which Sera doesn't

Spoiler:
Look at the last few pages of the most recent manga chapter release: chapter 780, page 14 to be more specific.  James Black-- "It took a lot of work to cultivate such eyes, you know..." So even a character in Detective Conan has pointed out that there is something special about Sera's eyes just as someone has said something about Shuuichi's eyes. It may not have been the same thing but it still points out the fact that the eyes are very unique and places focus on them. As for the cheekbones it may just be that the eyes might have been a better indicator of their similarity than the cheekbones. It may just be that both the similar eyes and cheekbones together might have made Sera look really unattractive.
