BO Boss Theory

Post by haibarakudo »

As you all know, the BO member's codenames are all named after different types of alcohol so I'm guessing the boss must have a lot of knowledge/interest on alcohol and the only person I could think of is Shiratori (the guy who likes Sato) because in OVA 2 he said that he is very interested in wine/alcohol or something and owns alot so yea....and you know there's now a new member under the codename Irish? Maybe thats him.....i dont know...this is just my theory

That doesn't even qualify as a hypothesis.

I think it's silly, and not worth a whole thread. If you're not sure maybe you should give it a bit more thought.

Why would it be silly? I know there isn't much evidence that proves that his the boss but there is some simularities

In my opinion, the argument isn't really valid. It's a scene from the anime, one that never occurred in the manga and wasn't really important either. Besides, he only said he is interested in the alcohol he owns, which sounds pretty normal to me.

And I don't know, Shiratori doesn't seem to be smart enough to be the leader of an organization ... Certainly not of one with people like Gin in it. In the beginning I was a bit suspicious of Siratori for maybe being a member (he acted mysteriously sometimes imo), but I discarded that thought pretty fast. He's only the slightly cunnining rival for the goody two-shoes Takagi (well, kind of an ex-rival nowadays).

i agree wit Kite

but i do like your idea of betrayal, it would be interesting if Shiratori decides to work for BO to get back at Takagi.

And Shiratori seems to be too young.
the BO works for at least 20 years!

I think Shiratori is in his early or mid 30's, maybe even in his late 30's (but rather early or mid) and as clever as he seems to be, it could work. Nevertheless, I really don't give credit to this theory. If the boss of the BO is someone on the good side, it's not Shiratori (although I have to admit that I don't have any reasons ;)).

He's an inspector isn't he? So he wouldn't be too young.

First off... We can't assume age... If people in the Org have kids, their kids are automatically in the org. So it is a safe to assume that if the boss had a kid, and died, something similar could have happened and the son took on his role. If that is true, then if Shiratori was the BO's son, joined the police as a spy, then the father died, it is safe to say that someone as young as him could be the current boss. Of course this can be said of any of the police, or anyone else on the good side. Providing that they are a capable leader.

And knowing what Gosho did with Kaitou Kid, this is a possibility.


Naturally there is possibility of dual identity. And it could be anyone, with the exception of children.

The Boss could look any possible age! By now the BO may have perfected an aging drug based on Apotoxin 4869.
Any conclusions about the boss based on how old he/she looks is incorrect reasoning (at this point).

I still think Shinichi's mom is Vermouth and his dad is the boss. The connection between boss and Vermouth is strange, and Vermouth is an actor / master of disguise like Yukiko Kudo. Also, their faces look kinda similar, and Vermouth has been trying to 'protect' Conan's identity from the other BO members. You never see these two unless the BO are completely thrown off, out of the story. That is, except for when you first meet them and they trick Conan into thinking the BO knows who he is.

They 'have a friend' in the States that can figure out how to fix him, which, as Haibara says, is impossible without the original poison. So, what if, with this reasoning, Yusaku Kudo is the Boss and wants Shinichi to forget everything in order to continue the organization because he thinks Shinichi is a threat? Or, what if he'splaying a game with Shinichi? (Which I highly doubt due to the deaths that have happened.)

Yeah, the one where Yukiko was at the Halloween Party with Heiji while Vermouth was with Conan...
