Kazuha Toyama (遠山和葉 "Toyama Kazuha") is a fictional character in the anime and manga "Case Closed" (known in Japan as "Detective Conan").

Character Information

Toyama is the childhood friend of Harley Hartwell (Heiji Hattori). She frequently gets angry at Harley and often has arguments with him. Her relationship with Harley is much like Rachel Moore's (Ran Mori) relationship with Jimmy Kudo (Shin'ichi Kudo). Deep inside she cares deeply for him and worries about him whenever he goes out on a case. Toyama even gave Heiji a good luck charm (omamori) to carry with him to protect him. She is a close friend of Rachel and wishes to see Ran's childhood boyfriend, Shinichi. Kazuha is also a 2-dan in aikido.

Kazuha and Rachel's friendship actually got off to a rather stormy start. Kazuha hates Harley's female "groupies." After returning to Osaka after learning that Conan Edogawa was in fact Shin'ichi (Jimmy) Kudo, Harley often talked about Kudo to Kazuha. Kazuha became jealous and assumed that this mysterious Kudo was another female rival. When Harley brought Conan and Rachel to Osaka [see volume 19] , Kazuha assumed that Rachel was "Kudo" and took an instant dislike to her. However, the misunderstanding was cleared up by Heiji just as Kazuha was confronting Rachel (Which caused Conan to panic, thinking his cover was blown as he thought he was the one she was talking to, until she leaned over him and it became apparent that she was actually talking to Rachel, who was on his other side). Rachel is not angry or scornful toward Kazuha but advises her to love Harley bravely. From that point on, the two becomes very good friends.In volume 20, it was shown that Kazuha had thought of Rachel and Harley's relationship 'tacky', seeing as they wore the same style of clothes. In the same volume, Harley reveals that Kazuha's thighs need to get thinner. Since both girls are in love with boy detectives about whom they constantly worry, they form a special bond and support and help one another.

It was revealed that Kazuha was Harley's first love in the 7th movie, Crossroad at the Ancient Capital. When Harley was 7, he saw a girl wearing a kimono under a cherry blossom tree, and fell in love with her, but then the wind blew cherry petals in his eyes, and when he could see again, the girl had disappeared. In the Japanese anime, Toyama is voiced by Yuko Miyamura, who is best known for her role as Asuka Langley Soryu in "Neon Genesis Evangelion".

Name

The name "Kazuha Toyama" comes from the character Kinshiro Toyama (also known as Toyama no Kin-san ).Kinshiro Toyama is a popular character based on the historical Tōyama Kagemoto, a samurai and official of the Tokugawa Shogunate during the Edo Period of Japanese history. He starred in 6 films, and was in multiple television shows.

In the "Case Closed" card game, her name is Katie Thompson. However, the 19th Volume of Case Closed introduces her as Kazuha Toyama. Currently, the Case Closed Anime has only released up until episode 81, so it is unclear if she will be Kazuha or Katie in the Anime. Ironically, despite not appearing in any of season two episodes, she is briefly featured on the promo for season two on the first season box set.
