Not when shs was a child nor at the current time. He is more interessted in her connection to Mary and the APTX than in her as a person. So if "rival" then not in the sense of love.
Nemomon wrote:Sera perhaps is in love with Shinichi, but she's more in love with the "wizard" in Shinichi. I think Shinichi noticed that she might be in love with him because (unlike Haibara's) Sera's hints are pretty pushy, and he already claimed that she remembers her, and the case on the beach (where all this started).
Thankfully, Shinichi has his mind set on Ran, and he ignores the other girls, and thanks to that DC is only partially a harlequin's romance story.

Where is this even coming from. I don't think any girl other than Ran has shown any interest in Shinichi/Conan post-345...

However, the actual level of her feelings for him is yet to be publicly revealed.

Here's the most relevant part from that section:DCW Wiki wrote:On several occasions, such as the dramatic conclusion of the Online Client Case, Masumi has displayed an intensely affectionate air towards Conan which somewhat transcends a mere "big sister" relationship.

Relevant Manga Pages:
File 800, Page 14
Shinichi/Conan (blushing, bewildered): "Whoa!?"
Masumi (blushing, crying): "Yes!! I'm so glad you're alright!"
Shinichi/Conan (no longer blushing, bewildered, internal monologue): Why is she even here?
File 876, Page 11
Masumi (to Shinichi/Conan, blushing): "Do you have a love interest, Conan? For example, a girl you met a long time ago... and couldn't forget..."
Shinichi/Conan (confused): "N-not... really..."
Masumi: *gives him a dirty look*
Shinichi/Conan: ?
Movie 18: Dimensional Sniper (Post-Credits scene)
Masumi (to Ran): "There's only one man who can snipe your heart, Ran..."
[..]
Masumi (internal monologue): For now, anyway...
And then there are moments like when she blushes at him when he takes off his glasses (File 930).
She knows Conan Edogawa is Shinichi Kudo—and 7-year-old Shinichi Kudo made quite an impact on her (File 972–File 974).
I'd say it's entirely valid to conclude that she's in love with him—at the very least, it's an unrequited crush.thriceplus wrote:Shinichi/Conan is pretty much Ran-sexual.
Yep, you got it.
thriceplus wrote:Not sure, I think it's just minor ship tease. I remember Haibara got a ton of hints in the 300s that I thought that was way more obvious (she flat out hated Ran until 345 iirc, not to mention 335-336 was blatant) and those went nowhere.

I'm not saying it's going anywhere—I'm just saying that Masumi has an unrequited crush on Shinichi/Conan (just like Shiho/Ai does), "just a tease" or not.
thriceplus wrote:At this point, can we even say that Ai or Ayumi even have a crush on Conan anymore? I think it's been more than a decade since there's been anything more than slight ship tease. Seems like they've just given up or moved on or something especially in Ai's case.
And I'm not convinced that it's anything more than ship tease on Sera's part. She barely even reacted in the Kyoto arc, which you'd assume she'd show some reaction if she actually had a serious crush on Shinichi.
