How come Vermouth is similar to Irene Adler? Irene wasn't a criminal, didn't work with Moriarty (aka Boss or Gin if you like) and personality wise, I see Vermouth as the cold hearted criminal who discovers a drop of humanity in her heart in spite of herself. She is a completely different character.
Haibara proved herself in acting, singing and pulling disguises. In addition to discovering Conan's disguise when she was still Sherry, and never revealing it to the organisation, thus protecting him as Irene protected Sherlock's client. And as I mentioned before, Haibara's looks and attitude are identical to Irene. They are sharp and independent when all women are supposed to be ladies. I don't see that in Vermouth. She's intelligent and dangerous but her attitude is flirtatious and teasing.
Well, obviously there are differences between the Sherlock Holmes characters and and the DC cast.
Conan/Shinichi isn't like Holmes who only has interest in solving cases. Conan/Shinichi embraces the normal live as well, has friends, a girlfriend and is interested in a lot of (seeming useless) knowledge that Holmes would ignore if it weren't important to solving a case.
Irene has the role as the mysterious woman Holmes met, an opponent who was able to see through his trap (albeit too late) and escape. Vermouth fits this description best.
And Agasa is obviously the fill for Watson's role from the beginning, both being men of science and the detective's secret holders. Haibara mentioned once that she's not Conan's assistant. She is too indignant to be Watson. Plus, she's a woman.
When you talk about a role the gender doesn't matter that much. Remember that Sherlock and Watson are of similar social status and similar age - which can't be said about Conan/Shinichi were Agasa is clearly the elder. Holmes and Watson are equals, Shinichi and Agasa are not.
Still, I agree that Agasa fits the role of Watson best, at least more often than any other character.
Holmes was implying that Adler is on a much higher level than the king.
On the level of intellect and cunning. It was the King who was admiring what a good bride she would be.
Just because it was the only woman Holmes was ever fascinated with doesn't mean he was in love.
Also your sig with the Amino Acid abbreviations (GCA UAC U AUG AUA) is cute. I wonder if anyone's wondered what mine was...
You are the first one mentioning it. And it seems you found the correct solution, congratulations.
I had seen your code before. (I guess it somehow influenced me to make one of mys own). I couldn't read it then.
I still couldn't solve it now.
BAGA BGEGD EDBDEG A
It doesn't seem to be a normal letter substitution code. And no anagram. Neither is it an amino acid motive or chemical abbreviations. At least none I know.
Something that stands out is the limited number of characters used - only a few letters, all from the beginning of the alphabet. This is why I think the letters are coding for something else, like numbers:
2171 27574 5424
Trying to translate it back "21" could stand for either B A or U - making the first word UGA or BAGA (Or BQA, if you translate "17" into a Q). The later is no word, the former... a tRNA sequence coding for an amino acid. But this code stops working once advancing to the next words.
The idea that two letters always encode one character (a single letter, a hiragana syllable) is also not possible because the second word has an odd number of letters.
It's hard to break codes when you don't know what to look for.
" So i think it's just some random words..
