meitantei-cowlick replied to your postCasual friendly reminder that ‘smiles and laughter…

(I really don’t see how people manage to misquote that? there is a flash back that /shows/ toichi saying that.)

(Well, most people are quoting it from the clocktower heist version DC 219. Because it’s the time most people in the general fandom hear the quote, and Toichi isn’t shown, but Jii still says it was Toichi always used to say, so… Not as in your face, but still no excuse.)

Casual friendly reminder that ‘smiles and laughter are always good, but never forget your poker face’ is not a quote from Kuroba Kaito/Kaitou Kid. It’s stated every time it’s said that those words are what Toichi taught to his son, and said son would appreciate it more if credit was given where due.

Just to do something about look-alikes and comparisons. Based on things I’ve been mistaken as being Kaito Kid in cosplay. Because, costumes can be difficult to distinguish between, but really. If it’s mostly accurate to something, there are obvious differences.

Arsène Lupin, 1905. Gentleman thief and source of inspiration for quite a few stories and characters.

Moriarty from Sherlock Hound, 1984

Kaitou Kid from Magic Kaito, 1987

Tuxedo Mask from Sailor Moon, 1992 (Just so say, people, no, when I’m Kid, you have no excuse to say Tuxedo Mask. White is not black. The only excuse is possibly King Endymion, and he’s only wearing all white in Crystal. Sorry, no. It’s the most common mistake, but makes the least sense.)

Sven from Black Cat, 2000

Annoyance Excalibur from Soul Eater, 2004

Count Bleck from Super Paper Mario, 2007

Mephisto Pheles from Ao no Exorcist, 2009

There are probably more, but this is my personal ‘look alike’ mix up experiences with my precious of Kid. I know the other characters, and like most, but they are very different. Please bear in mind. Cosplayers do not mind being mistaken for others, and I normally wave it off as well, but it does get under my skin at some of the guesses. I might not get offended by them, as Kaitou Kid isn’t too well known in general as the others are, but some might be. Heck, how many people knew about Moriarty?

(We’d send a roses and violets poem, but it devolved into Kaito doing it about everything, so… Just going to put them all here for random. :V )

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

What if I learned to kick that ball,

Right back at you?~


Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

I’m made of love,

And it’s stronger than you~ *tranq needled for that one*


Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

Spiders are mean,

Though that’s nothing new… [Other muse rolls eyes]


Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

…Though really, they’re purple,

So all these rhymes are untrue. :V


Roses are red,

Violets aren’t blue,

But I will hug each,

And every one of you ❤


Roses are red,

And I’m almost done,

But the next one will not,

Be quite so fun

Though mine might be blue.

And I could be killed, too…

omg i mean no disrespect at all just a funny moment i feel like sharing, i dont have my glasses on and i saw your url and i read it as moonlightmajutsushit has anyone else confused it as this before omgg

( Oh jeez XD

I don’t know if anyone’s completely misread it, so haven’t heard of that one before, nope. Just have one person who likes pronouncing/remembering it as ‘magic sushi’ for the last part, much to Kaito’s dislike.)
