## Background[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Wataru_Takagi&action=edit&section=1 "Edit section: Background")]
Wataru Takagi is a newcomer to the Tokyo Police Criminal Investigations Division 1, having transferred after the bomber case about three years ago but by the time [Shinichi Kudo](/wiki/Shinichi_Kudo "Shinichi Kudo") first established his reputation as a detective, about two years ago.[](#cite_note-4) His mentor was a senior agent called Date, who died one year before the present timeline. In his last moments Date entrusted Takagi his notebook, which had a ring for his girlfriend Natalie Kuruma hidden. He kept Date's notebook as a personal motivation to be just as good as Date. It was first a year later he realized that Date's girlfriend was Natalie, but it was too late to give her the ring, because she committed suicide soon after Date's death. He was [first introduced in an Anime original](http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Category:Anime_to_manga_characters) case at an on location film set.
Ever since his joining the force, Takagi (like so many of his other colleagues) has harbored romantic feelings for [Miwako Sato](/wiki/Miwako_Sato "Miwako Sato"). While Sato appeared to have taken a liking to him as well, Takagi was easily discouraged by the way she dealt with other male colleagues, including their superior Inspector Megure (though in that case it was more a daughterly affection to a father figure, since Sato's father had died when she was very young).[](#cite_note-5)[](#cite_note-6) In time, thanks to several severe incidents - and despite the interference of the other officers in the department, chiefly [Ninzaburo Shiratori](/wiki/Ninzaburo_Shiratori "Ninzaburo Shiratori") -, their professional relationship grew more personal,[](#cite_note-7)[](#cite_note-8)[](#cite_note-9)[](#cite_note-10) and finally Sato and Takagi shared their first kiss after he had been hospitalized in the course of a difficult case[](#cite_note-11) and kissed the second (and third!) time in Episode 683 when he almost died in a bomb accident.[](#cite_note-12)
Takagi is among the investigators who receive the most near fatal experiences. That includes, among many things:
* Handcuffed to the window of a burning warehouse.
* Trapped in a tower containing a countdown bomb.
* Held hostages and shot by the criminal.
* Tied on a plank on a roofless two story building containing a countdown bomb, while the temperature outside is -20 Celsius degree.
Although at some point, Takagi briefly develops PTSD, he nevertheless relentlessly pursues justice, even if it endangers his life.
## Personality[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Wataru_Takagi&action=edit&section=2 "Edit section: Personality")]
While he is initially self-conscious and bumbling, Takagi is a dedicated member of the Tokyo Police Force and shows promise as a good officer as the series progresses. He is one of the few officers who trusts [Conan](/wiki/Conan_Edogawa "Conan Edogawa")'s judgments the most, listening to him at case scenes to find important evidence and sometimes even letting Conan take the lead in their investigation (the case with [Sato](/wiki/Miwako_Sato "Miwako Sato") handcuffed to the wrong suspect in the bathroom being a good example).[](#cite_note-13)
Takagi has a strong intuition and sense of justice, and is very honorable. He has a strong drive to protect others, partially based in his profession as an officer, and partially based on a self-sacrificing trait in his personality. He is always very polite, even when alarmed, and defers to the judgment of his partner Miwako Sato not only because she is his senior, but because he truly respects her.
His hobbies are playing the maracas[](#cite_note-14) and following the international wrestling scene, being a fan of wrestlers such as [Bruiser Brody](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruiser_Brody "wikipedia:Bruiser Brody") and [Keiji Mutoh](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keiji_Mutoh "wikipedia:Keiji Mutoh"), and recognizing a move that Ran does as the "Shining Wizard," a finishing move of Mutoh's.[](#cite_note-15) In summary, his hobbies involve a lot of martial arts and sports.

## Plot overview[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Wataru_Takagi&action=edit&section=4 "Edit section: Plot overview")]
### Actor's Apartment Case (Manga: (/wiki/Volume_17 "Volume 17")-(/wiki/Volume_18 "Volume 18"), Anime: [102-103](/wiki/The_Historical_Actor_Murder_Case "The Historical Actor Murder Case"))[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Wataru_Takagi&action=edit&section=5 "Edit section: Actor's Apartment Case (Manga: 170-172, Anime: 102-103)")]
Takagi makes his debut in the Manga series.
### Treadmill Murder Case (Manga: [208-210](/wiki/Volume_21 "Volume 21"), Anime: [146-147](/wiki/Metropolitan_Police_Detective_Love_Story "Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story"))[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Wataru_Takagi&action=edit&section=6 "Edit section: Treadmill Murder Case (Manga: 208-210, Anime: 146-147)")]
This is the first case to show detective Takagi’s romantic affection for a female police officer, [Miwako Sato](/wiki/Miwako_Sato "Miwako Sato").
Initially, Takagi is tasked with the mission of recording the [Detective Boys](/wiki/Detective_Boys "Detective Boys")' testimonies regarding the events at the [Blue Castle](/wiki/The_Old_Blue_Castle_Investigation_Case "The Old Blue Castle Investigation Case"). Just as they're about to begin, the children notice his untidy clothing and wonder if he doesn't have a girlfriend. [Agasa](/wiki/Hiroshi_Agasa "Hiroshi Agasa") offers to introduce to him his cousin's granddaughter, but Takagi awkwardly declines, stating that he has already had someone that he likes, right before detective [Miwako Sato](/wiki/Miwako_Sato "Miwako Sato") enters the room. Takagi keeps blushing, and his unnatural manner in front of Sato makes the Detective Boys think that she is really his girlfriend. However, both of them denies that this is true. Takagi wonders why Sato didn't go to assist [Inspector Megure](/wiki/Juzo_Megure "Juzo Megure") in the bank robbery case, and learns that the bank manager, together with his wife, will arrive at the Police Headquarter. Sato asks Takagi whether he has heard anything from her friend Yumi. He silently recalls Yumi's words, about what Sato told her when she was drunk, that the person she likes is someone from the first investigation division, who may very well be Takagi himself.
The bank manager, Keizo Masuo, comes by himself and decides to call his wife. During the phone call, Takagi and the others suddenly hear the wife's scream. He, Sato, [Conan](/wiki/Conan_Edogawa "Conan Edogawa") and Keizo rush to Keizo's house and find his wife's dead body. The person to be in charge of this murder case is Inspector [Ninzaburo Shiratori](/wiki/Ninzaburo_Shiratori "Ninzaburo Shiratori"), a police officer who has just been promoted recently. When Sato sarcastically suggests that Shiratori may as well consider her "a possible wedding match", Takagi misunderstands and begins to suspect that the person whom Sato said she has feelings for is none other than Shiratori. He keeps thinking of unreal scenarios with Shiratori and Sato being together, and isn't able to fully concentrate on the case.
Later, with the help from Conan, the trick and the identity of the killer are uncovered, and the case goes to an end. After turning down the invitation of Shiratori, Sato invites Takagi to go out and have ramen for dinner, to which he accepts happily. Unexpectedly, a drunken Megure comes up and asks them to go for a drink with him at the bar, and Sato immediately approves of the idea despite the invitation to Takagi earlier. Because of this, Takagi suddenly suspects that Sato's love interest is in fact Inspector Megure, and declines the offer.
The case ends with a depressed Takagi lying on the table and being unable to do anything, even though he still hasn't taken the Detective Boys' testimonies yet.
### Innocent Suspect Case (Manga: (/wiki/Volume_23 "Volume 23")-(/wiki/Volume_24 "Volume 24"), Anime: [156-157](/wiki/Metropolitan_Police_Detective_Love_Story_2 "Metropolitan Police Detective Love Story 2"))[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Wataru_Takagi&action=edit&section=7 "Edit section: Innocent Suspect Case (Manga: 231-233, Anime: 156-157)")]

Takagi was attacked with a blunt object while talking with Sato on the phone about the Shushiro case.

In the anime, episode 477, at 11:50, Takagi is heard speaking numbers in French. In one of the Japanese Audio/English subtitles, his words are translated as "eins, zwei, drei," which is German, but he is actually saying "un, deux, trois." The victim was German, and Agasa says that when the dying victim (who spoke German, English and Japanese) was asked who the culprit was, he answered in his native tongue. Megure then turns to Takagi, who starts counting in French. Agasa then corrects him, saying "That's French," and then proceeds to count from one to eleven in German, solving the case. This exchange does not take place in the manga. This could suggest that Takagi is bilingual in French and Japanese (or at least took French in school).

Takagi kidnapped.
Takagi and Sato's second kiss.
Takagi is kidnapped by a mystery man misunderstanding he is [Wataru Date](/wiki/Wataru_Date "Wataru Date") who made his daughter commit suicide. Around a year after the death of his friend and mentor Date, Takagi discovered that a suicide victim Natalie Kuruma was Date's girlfriend. Since the police investigation assumed that she killed herself due to having been dump, Takagi concluded that Natalie didn't know that Date had passed away in a traffic accident and decided to contact Natalie's next-of-kin to inform them of the truth. Since Natalie's parents had passed away, Takagi contacted the one who claimed her possessions, a colleague from English conversation school and old friend, Ryusaku Fuemoto. But due to that Natalie had never told her family her boyfriend's family name and because Date and Takagi had the same given name, Ryusaku mistook Takagi as the boyfriend who dumped Natalie, and lured him to Hokkaido.
