Detective Conan

Takuzou Onoe

斧江拓三

Story Role

Takuzou enters the story after Kaitou Kid announces his intention to steal two wakizashi from the Onoe residence. The unusual target puzzles Conan Edogawa because Kid normally pursues large gemstones rather than Japanese swords.

The investigation reveals that Takuzou's swords are part of a set associated with a treasure hidden by his grandfather, Keizaburo Onoe, who was involved in wartime industry.

Takuzou's pursuit of the treasure makes him a target of Brian D. Kadokura and his armed organization. Kadokura's men shoot Takuzou during an attack at the Hakodate police station as they escalate their efforts to seize the clues.

The wider investigation also reveals that Takuzou's father, Tadayuki Onoe, wanted the treasure found and destroyed rather than exploited. That instruction had been entrusted to Ryoe Fukushiro, putting father and son on opposing sides of the treasure's legacy.
