I mostly kind of feel like Kaito lost track of what he's really doing... maybe because it's been a while since an agent from the organization appeared (in the manga at least).
I like the idea of Toichi resurfacing if there will be any interaction with Yukiko or even Yusako. However as far as MK plot goes I don't see how his return is any good
on a side note: I am really curious about the trick used this time. But I am completely clueless

I'm not sure if I like that Toichi is alive. Kaito was looking for the gems to find out who killed his father, but since his father is alive... he has no reasons to continue his job. Plus, since Toichi is alive, he now will carry on the game with Snake. I really hope that it was Chikage in disguise...

Spoiler:
maybe Toichi is just waiting for his son to dismantle the gang that tried to kill him and then pop up to say "hi son, it was all just a test to improve your abilities. How tall you've grown! Thanks for annihilating my ennemies and almost die several times while I was hiding!"
Joining in on the Chikage speculation. There are several scenarios that I've considered:
Chikage is Corbeaux.
Chikage is Corbeaux's helper, like Jii is for Kaito.
Chikage is Corbeaux's fan. She knew he'd be showing up in Japan, so came in order to "catch his show".
Corbeaux is Chikage's old friend. She followed him to Japan to catch up with him.
I've ordered them from most likely to least likely, in my perspective.

Yeah, gotta agree with you there. It'd make Kuroba Touichi a massive asshole. It'd make the whole story pointless. It'd make the villains even more incompetent, thus destroying the tension of the story.

And the winner is... Chikage is Corbeau's helper, like Jii is for Kaito.

If Toichi is alive, I imagine his justification for faking his death will be like a certain other character. He figured Kaito would be in danger if he kept fightin' the good fight in the open, so of course, he instead allows his son to inherit his extremely dangerous persona and take his place in the crosshairs.
Yeah, in the 1412 anime, you can actually see a shadowy Kaito Kid in the background (1st episode), so I hope this isn't some nonsense that they actually made Gosho bring him back?
Well there's a chance that this will be dealt with at one point also because the anime is not going to run forever, so I'm not that worried about it yet.
There's no doubt that Gosho was coordinating with them ahead of time to incorporate (at least elements from) these latest chapters/the chapter ideas into the series. I wouldn't be surprised if the chapters themselves ended up being adapted at the end of this run.

I just hope it doesn't become a train wreck :X
