Momoko appears (and gets mentioned in the TV special) as one of the girls who gave Valentine's chocolate to [Kaito Kuroba](/wiki/Kaito_Kuroba "Kaito Kuroba"). All of the three girls visible were drawn by [Yutaka Abe](/wiki/Yutaka_Abe "Yutaka Abe") and are intended as allusions: Momoko as the protagonist of his *[100% Tantei Monogatari](/wiki/100%25_Tantei_Monogatari "100% Tantei Monogatari")* series, "Mamiko-chan" is based on [Mamiko Takai](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mamiko_Takai "wikipedia:Mamiko Takai") and "Kyōko-chan" is named after Abe's good friend, the mangaka [Kyōko Fumizuki](https://www.mangaupdates.com/authors.html?id=2826)
#### Possible further appearances[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Momoko_Aoyama&action=edit&section=9 "Edit section: Possible further appearances")]
There's a blonde girl with ponytail and hair over her temples looking like Momoko and being part of [class 2-B](/wiki/Ekoda_High_School#Room_of_Class_2-B "Ekoda High School") in chapters (/wiki/Magic_Kaito_Volume_1#The_Police_Are_Everywhere "Magic Kaito Volume 1"), (/wiki/Magic_Kaito_Volume_2#Stay_Away_From_Him "Magic Kaito Volume 2"), (/wiki/Magic_Kaito_Volume_2#Japan.27s_Most_Irresponsible_Prime_Minister "Magic Kaito Volume 2") and (/wiki/Magic_Kaito_Volume_3#The_Great_Detective_Appears.21.21 "Magic Kaito Volume 3"), too, most of the time as part of [Aoko Nakamori](/wiki/Aoko_Nakamori "Aoko Nakamori")'s and [Keiko Momoi](/wiki/Keiko_Momoi "Keiko Momoi")'s circle of friends and these times drawn by [Gosho Aoyama](/wiki/Gosho_Aoyama "Gosho Aoyama"). It's left unclear whether it's supposed to be Momoko again, though.
## Trivia[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Momoko_Aoyama&action=edit&section=10 "Edit section: Trivia")]
* Momoko Aoyama is named both after [Gosho Aoyama](/wiki/Gosho_Aoyama "Gosho Aoyama") himself and after his favorite idol at the time, [Momoko Kikuchi](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momoko_Kikuchi "wikipedia:Momoko Kikuchi"). This was a reaction by [Yutaka Abe](/wiki/Yutaka_Abe "Yutaka Abe") in return to Gosho's one-shot *[Wait For Me](/wiki/Wait_For_Me "Wait For Me")*, in which the protagonists are named Yutaka Takai and Mamiko Abe. "Yutaka" and "Abe" came from Yutaka Abe's own name, while the parts of the name "Takai! and "Mamiko" came from Yutaka's then favorite idol [Mamiko Takai](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mamiko_Takai "wikipedia:Mamiko Takai").[](#cite_note-character_name-1)
* Gosho Aoyama also confirmed on the bonus page of *100% Tantei Monogatari* that he intended to have a battle between Momoko Aoyama and [Kaitou Kid](/wiki/Kaitou_Kid "Kaitou Kid") once, but it never worked out.[](#cite_note-gosho_bonus-2)
