Shinichi kudo- a Sherlockian, is eccentric just as his ideal but is as smart. His struggles all during this manga can be clearly seen. The way he cares for whom he loves, his philosophy, the way he would do anything to reach the truth and let justice prevail makes him special. I love this quote by him-
" After all, I am the guy who is breaking her (Rachel/ Ran) heart by making her wait for an eternity, although I am always by her side.
I can't see her cry anymore, even if it means that I no longer have any place in her heart.
So immature of me, isn't it?"
Besides, he every now and then tries to give a comic relief.
He is the best part of the show.
And one after watching would definitely learn to accept things in life in a better way.
Hats off to Gosho Aoyama and a big thanks for creating someone who always gave me hope
