"Ranpo takes extreme pride in his "ability" which can solve any mystery in mere seconds, with which he has solved countless cases. With his incredible intelligence, he is commended for it by the rest of the Armed Detective Agency, even more so because he lacks an ability. He is often found bragging about his status as the greatest detective in the world.Ranpo is also shown to be rather childish, frequently teasing the other detectives in the Agency and sometimes refusing to do work or cases." Ranpo can't do simple tasks. Since the Agency has so much faith in him, he puts equal faith in them. He promised to NEVER let anything or anyone hurt anyone in the Agency. he has a VERY poor sense of direction, very smart but doesn't know how to get on the train by himself, prone to getting lost if left alone, he wasn't born in Yokohama- this being the reason why he gets lost so easily since he was born in the countryside, trouble with everyday tasks, traumatic childhood- this is the reason for his childish behavior, loves sweets, glasses given to him by Fukuzawa- they activate his "ability" leader of the Armed Detective Agency is named Yukuchi Fukuzawa. first met when Ranpo was young and Fukuzawa working as bodyguard for CEO's murder. While in a meeting, Ranpo came in and easily claimed that the secretary was the murderer. Fukuzawa was impressed by Ranpo's skill. They went to a play. Ranpo solved the mystery quick and spoils for crowd. Loneliness and anger towards people is because he believes he's not any special or different than them. (reality, IQ is vastly different) Fukuzawa lied and told Ranpo he was an ability user. He gave Ranpo a pair of glasses to "control" this ability. Spent a long time working together. Fukuzawa learned while Ranpo was incredibly smart, he was also weak. He established a group called the Armed Detective Agency, where Ranpo could be protected as the group solved problems and cases through Yokohama. Ranpo holds deep respect admiration for Fukuzawa, always desires praise from him. Ranpo lovespraise. He always gets depressed whenever Fukuzawa gets hurt. He'll do any order "just because Fukuzawa said so". However, his love for Fukuzawa goes so deep that the only reason he'll disobey orders is to protect Fukuzawa. Ranpo is very clingy. He sometimes harbors "cat-like" behavior and will cling for hours. He literally can't sleep without cuddles. He absolutely adores his significant other and will praise them endlessly, but also seeks praise in return. He is super childish, but super loving as well. His lover is the only one who can steal from his secret stash of sweets. The ONLY one.
