Kaito Kid is a young Batman

[MaitreDétective]

I just noticed all those similarities between the two

Both:

- have several gadgets
- have a butler
- are quite wealthy
- have genius-level intellect
- have a handglider
- have lost their father
- fight against crime (Well, sorta...)
- have above average physical abilities
- have a secret identity
- go out only at night
- are hated by the police
- have numerous admirers

- have a butler

Pretty sure Jii isn't a butler.  He was a magician assistant and friend to Toichi now he's Kaito's thieving assistant (and a voice of reason).

Then why is he calling Kaito 'young master'?

Kaitou Kid fights crime? This is a new one to me.

o.O, yup, yup, Snake and all those guys from the MK!BO count as crime, right?

I didn't think that Kaito was that wealthy. I mean, he steals jewels, but he gives them back so he isn't making a profit.

[MaitreDétective]

But his father was a famous magician (not to mention We don't even know what happened to what he has stollen in his criminal career)

[ranger]

that's a stretch

Then why is he calling Kaito 'young master'?

Probably because young master is an English equivalent of Kaito-Bocchama. I think bocchama means "son of" or something like that.

this is begging for a parody topic btw

"Bocchama" according to the dictionary:
