## Background[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Keiko_Momoi&action=edit&section=1 "Edit section: Background")]
Keiko appears to be a close friend of [Aoko Nakamori](/wiki/Aoko_Nakamori "Aoko Nakamori"), possibly her best friend after [Kaito Kuroba](/wiki/Kaito_Kuroba "Kaito Kuroba"). It is not stated how long the girls have known each other. In the plot of Magic Kaito, Keiko often serves the same purpose that [Sonoko Suzuki](/wiki/Sonoko_Suzuki "Sonoko Suzuki") does to [Ran Mouri](/wiki/Ran_Mouri "Ran Mouri"): that of friend and foil to the female main character.
She attends Ekoda High along with [Aoko](/wiki/Aoko_Nakamori "Aoko Nakamori"), [Kaito](/wiki/Kaito_Kuroba "Kaito Kuroba"), [Akako Koizumi](/wiki/Akako_Koizumi "Akako Koizumi"), and [Saguru Hakuba](/wiki/Saguru_Hakuba "Saguru Hakuba").
## Personality[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Keiko_Momoi&action=edit&section=2 "Edit section: Personality")]
Although comparable to Sonoko, Keiko appears to have a far less abrasive personality. She is an avid Kaitou Kid fan, but knows better than to advertise this in front of Aoko.
## Plot overview[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Keiko_Momoi&action=edit&section=3 "Edit section: Plot overview")]
Although Keiko often appears in Magic Kaito, she never appears in the Detective Conan manga, while she appears only once in the anime, in the first part of episode 219 which is adapted from the Magic Kaito manga.
Keiko is also a recurring character in [Yaiba](/wiki/Yaiba "Yaiba"), and in the last chapter of that manga a scene set after a three years timeskip has her telling [Sayaka Mine](/wiki/Sayaka_Mine "Sayaka Mine") that Kuroba and Nakamori are a couple now, while [Keiko's friend](/wiki/List_of_minor_Magic_Kaito_characters#Notable_minor_characters "List of minor Magic Kaito characters") confirms having seen them together.

Aoko, Keiko and someone who appears to be Sayaka in Episode 7 of *Magic Kaito 1412*.

During her first named appearance, she teases [Aoko Nakamori](/wiki/Aoko_Nakamori "Aoko Nakamori") because of the fact that she wants to give Valentine's chocolate to [Kaito Kuroba](/wiki/Kaito_Kuroba "Kaito Kuroba") and implying that she couldn't give anyone her own chocolate so far, since everyone just wants one from the new girl in class, [Akako Koizumi](/wiki/Akako_Koizumi "Akako Koizumi").

[Aoko Nakamori](/wiki/Aoko_Nakamori "Aoko Nakamori") is vehemently against it, but Keiko argues that it was supposed to get moved anyway, so it would be fine if it gets stolen by Kid as well, to which Aoko disagrees. Keiko later gets accompanied by Aoko as the only one who is not cheering, but against Kid's heist, to her slight embarassment.

## Name origin[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Keiko_Momoi&action=edit&section=31 "Edit section: Name origin")]
Like other characters in *Magic Kaito*, Keiko's name contains a color. The "momo" in Keiko's family name means "peach".
## Trivia[[edit](/wiki/index.php?title=Keiko_Momoi&action=edit&section=32 "Edit section: Trivia")]
* Even though she appears in *[Yaiba](/wiki/Yaiba "Yaiba")* too, it's clearly supposed to be an alternate version of her and [Ekoda High School](/wiki/Ekoda_High_School "Ekoda High School"). Besides the general inconsistencies between *Yaiba* and the other series, she and her [friend](/wiki/index.php?title=Keiko%27s_friend&action=edit&redlink=1 "Keiko's friend (page does not exist)") attend a different class ([Sayaka Mine](/wiki/Sayaka_Mine "Sayaka Mine")'s 2-A) than [Kaito Kuroba](/wiki/Kaito_Kuroba "Kaito Kuroba") ([2-B](/wiki/Ekoda_High_School#Room_of_Class_2-B "Ekoda High School")) and [Aoko Nakamori](/wiki/Aoko_Nakamori "Aoko Nakamori") is said to be in a another class, too (2-F). The school uniforms of the girls are also different from *[Magic Kaito](/wiki/Magic_Kaito "Magic Kaito")*. [Gosho Aoyama](/wiki/Gosho_Aoyama "Gosho Aoyama") later [confirmed](/wiki/Crossover#Are_Gosho_Aoyama.27s_different_works_set_in_the_same_world.3F "Crossover") that his works happen in "[parallel worlds](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_universes_in_fiction "wikipedia:Parallel universes in fiction")", despite their shared characters and [settings](/wiki/Setting "Setting").
