Gin is the main antagonist of the manga and anime franchise, Case Closed. He is a high-ranking member of the Black Organization to carry out devious assassination plots regarding the task, He is also the arch-nemesis of both Shinichi Kudo (being known for giving the drug and turning the latter into the Juvenile detective) and Shuichi Akai (a agent from the government who seeks to hunt him over his Ties with The Black Organization’s illegal activities.
He is voiced by Yukitoshi Hori.
Appearance[]
Gin is tall, handsome, and he has long silver hair that reaches down to his hips, and he has cold, icy green eyes of a cold blooded killer. He's also a man of uncertain age, and looks very menacing. Gin's appearance has never changed in all of his appearances, as he always wear a black fedora with a grey or white hatband. His only shown outfit is a knee length, notched lapel, black trench coat with the collar upturned to obscure part of his face and a loose white turtleneck underneath, and he likely also wears a ballistic vest beneath these. Gin wears black trousers and black dress shoes. When trying to avoid leaving fingerprints, he dons a pair of white gloves (black in the anime).
Personality[]
Gin is among the most loyal members to the Black Organization. He follows the Boss of the Organization's orders most closely and virtually never acts against their greater interests. He is also one of the Black Organization's most dangerous operatives; Conan miscalculating his intelligence, abilities, and speed of response have resulted in several very close calls and awry plans. He has yet to be truly outsmarted by Conan, although he has been foiled a couple times. Gin is a merciless and efficient assassin, who has no compunctions about killing or threatening his teammates. Despite his loyalty, he dislikes how the Boss treats Vermourth so special.
Fitting his icy personality, Gin's displayed range of emotions so far is relatively limited. Wearing a threatening smirk, he enjoys hunting traitors, watching the plans he has concocted succeed, and cornering his targets. Although he seems to take satisfaction with taking out someone personally, Gin is also satisfied with orchestrating a target's death even if he does not pull the trigger himself. He is not easily frustrated and takes setbacks in good stride, shown when he coolly orders a retreat when Shuichi Akai ambushed the Black Organization. He is patient and cautious, preferring to wait until success is most likely. He does not like potential loose ends, preferring to get rid of anything doubtful. Gin does not trust anyone and does not fully believe anything he doesn't witness himself.
Biography[]
Gin first appears when he and his partner in crime, Vodka goes to Tropical Land to finish a deal with a company owner they were blackmailing for gun smuggling. The two board the Mystery Coaster and witnessed the entire murder. Later, Gin and Vodka got caught up by Shinichi Kudo when finishing the deal, however Gin knocks down Shinichi and force-feeds him APTX 4869, before departing and saying farewell to a dying Shinichi. Unbeknownst to Gin however, the poison does not kill Shinichi, but rather turned him into a child, who took the name of Conan Edogawa.
Gin and Vodka reappeared when they confront Akemi Miyano, who successfully completing a bank robbery. At the shipping yard, Akemi tries to tell Gin to hold up his end of the bargain, but he tells her the Organization wouldn't let her sister (who is later revealed to be Shiho Miyano) leave anyway because she was too valuable, before killing Akemi and flees away with Vodka once again.
For the rest of the series, Gin and Vodka are always seen together committing various criminal activities and killing people to secure the organization's secret, and Conan and Haibara's goal is to take them down along with the organization once and for all.
