KaiShin Is An Incredibly Interesting Ship Because Its Characters’ Canon Is Presented In A Very Unique

KaiShin is an incredibly interesting ship because its characters’ canon is presented in a very unique manner that is so rare.

They are both the protagonist of their own respective series. But they both have appearances in each other’s series. It’s very rare to have a big franchise show and a spin-off of it that both center characters who regularly cross over.

And to unlock the full KaiShin potential, you simply have to watch both Detective Conan and Magic Kaito, because only when you watch both shows do you realize that this is absolutely mutual pining.

If you watch Detective Conan, you get everything from Shinichi’s POV. You are presented with KID as this elusive, enigmatic and charming gentleman thief whose actions seem very random because you don’t really know his motivation. But you get to watch Shinichi slowly grow fond of the thief, you watch him reminiscent about KID (so, so, so many shots of Conan thinking in a voice-over about KID while a large image of KID is projected into the background. So many), you have him smile as he thinks about KID and you get direct insight into his thoughts about KID.

And, truly, he thinks about KID a lot. You see Shinichi, who always catches every criminal, let KID go repeatedly, voluntarily, with flimsy excuses, up to the point where they regularly work together. And you just sit there, going, “well damn, son, you sure are in love, huh”.

And then you watch Magic Kaito and you see Kaito getting visually more giddy when he spots Conan in a crowd, you see Kaito watch Conan with a smile and observe as Conan figures out more and more of the trick, you hear Kaito’s thoughts and conversations with his assistant about how much more of a challenge it is with Conan around how if Conan is there, Kaito has to show him, specifically, “brilliant magic”.

It’s just Magic Kaito canon that Kaito designs his most breathtaking magic shows specifically for Shinichi. And you just sit there, going, “well damn, son, you sure are in love, huh”.

Only by watching both Magic Kaito and Detective Conan parallel do you unlock the knowledge that “oh shit, those dumbasses are both in love” and I think that is very beautiful and also incredibly unique, because you rarely get to have such an insight into the thoughts of both characters to this extend.

It’s basically like watching a slow-burn fanfiction where both try to woo the other while simultaneously also being completely oblivious to the way the other person is looking at them and the effort they put in. And I think that’s beautiful.

Instead of reading fanfic all day I drew it 😤 From the fic “unfamiliar feathers” by @lemonomic !!! I cannot get enough of this fic mannnn. Short summary: Damian is going through it ™ , Tim is just happy to be here, and Jason is the only sane one

Also I cannot take drawing Tim’s bowl cut. Will I do it again. Yes I love Tim too much not to 😭 Damian was hard to draw at first but idk it just clicked for me.

Cropped versions under cut

As a kid, when your parents are poor, you're poor. If they don't have money, that means none of you have money. But if someone's parents are rich, that doesn't necessarily mean the kid is. Sometimes rich peoples' kids aren't rich kids, they're just some rich freak's exotic pets that can talk but aren't allowed to.
