Takagi knows Conan's identity (Theory)

[Abs.]

if this theory is true, maybe gosho just didn't want to address it so that when takagi finally comes up and is like "hey kudo, we have stuff to do" we'll be like "OH SNAP, HELL YEAH TAKAGI!"

The way Takagi's been appearing recently makes me think ^ that's actually what's being set up. Well, either that or Conan figures he knows already (because of the elevator bomb incident) but doesn't want to get into it with him

[Dus]

That would indeed be awesome. Somewhat like what I have envisioned for Kogoro for ages.  But I don't think he's as sure anymore.
Maybe during this arc it will be revealed that everyone knows who Conan is.

I refuse to get me hopes up about this. It would be so nice though...

Yes, I've been noticing that, too! Especially since the Matsuda case! I agree that Takagi knows exactly that The Weather Girls is not just an ordinary kid but I'm not sure if Takagi knows that The Weather Girls really is Shinichi and re the File 770's Takagi being so frantic when Shinichi called, I think it's just general panic because if he knew that The Weather Girls is Shinichi, then his eyes would instantly dart to The Weather Girls when Shinichi called and probably back and forth to try and see if The Weather Girls is speaking to someone in the phone too (Agasa was the one who did this, actually)

It'll be interesting if Takagi figures out that the weather girls really are André Camel. Who knows what that'll lead to. That's some disguises the FBI can pull off, huh?

That's true, he does handle all the evidence.  Ooooh, now I want more Takagi!!!  I mean, I want him in the manga even more than I normally want him...which is a lot...ok I'm done.
But why wouldn't he be like, "Conan, I'm going to need to talk to you in private" and confront him?

Because that would require Takagi to be A) 100% positive and B) Assertive. Which, when he's not dealing with murderers, he's not.

Is it bad that I laugh at his being assertive outside of cases? >.>

Takagi is a sharp-minded person so I think it's pretty impossible for him not to investigate about Conan especially when he answered him "I'll tell you in afterlife".

It just proves that Conan is not the person who he said he is and who everyone think he is. So I think it's pretty impossible for him not to investigate about Conan.

And with the whole fingerprint thing he will have his suspicion confirmed. And if he is going to put things two by two and connect the dots he will surely knows Conan's true identity.

It's true, Conan confirms he's not normal (or named Conan, for that matter) and any normal person would start investigating themselves.  Or at least keep an eye open for clues if they're more respectful to the suspect's privacy.

Yeah you're right. And if Takagi knows his secret, he is just practically keeping it to himself, waiting for Conan to tell everyone his secret or finding a reasonable explanation in why a person just shrunk.

YAY I didn't have to post this.....I've been thinking Takagi had an idea in the bomb storyline....(aka the time I became an uber Takagi fangirl) good to know I ain't alone in this assumption!

[Eri-chan]

I, for one, would looove to see Takagi call Conan "Kudo". I do totally think he knows, though he might be like Eisuke, knowing that Conan is Shinichi, but not knowing how he is.

Hi there! (recovered from an ultimate modem problem if someone knows me from the Kogoro's thread)

don't forget a little tiny unneeded information:

Who was one of the first officers to find Conan wrapped in Shinishi's cloths in the first episode (anime, don't know if it applies to the manga, but 90% positive)? 

[Arisana]

In the manga (chapter 1 and 2) I don't believe I see Takagi anywhere in there. The anime is necessarily canon--although I can't quite recall actually seeing Takagi in the animation, just his voice, actually, implying that he was one of the officers (I might be wrong about that). The officers patrolling at Tropical Island also weren't from Division one (Homicide). If Takagi was in Division one when Shinichi solved his first case (on the plane), wouldn't it be a bit unlikely for an officer from the Homicide division to be patrolling the area? (It can be argued that a murder case occurred a while ago at the location, though.)

You're right I also heard Takagi's voice in the animation....i think Takagi was there or just they have the same seiyu.

Probably Takagi was being punished for something that he was assigned to another task for a week. That is probably the reason why he was there

I wish it was Takagi though it's pretty impossible......
