* DaChief: Is the highest-ranking among the members of the TMP that we see, and is very much a ReasonableAuthorityFigure.
* FaceOfAThug: So much that, in the anime, Ran almost attacked him to protect Sayuri, mistakenly thinking he wanted to hurt her!

* CluelessDudeMagnet: Sato doesn't know that the whole police department all have a romantic attraction to her.

* HiddenDepths: She can be incredibly kind and understanding, if her interaction with her Haneda is anything to go by.
** She is also the one who made sure an small time ex-criminal she arrested had a job when he got out of prison as the manager of her building.

* CharacterDevelopment: He's a borderline CluelessDetective in the beginning of the series, only barely better than Kogoro and was often shamelessly reliant on Kogoro while also often [[NotNowKiddo dismissing Conan]]. As the series goes on, he becomes more perceptive and definitely more skilled than Kogoro ([[OvershadowedByAwesome though not more than Conan and few others]]) as well as more willing to listen to Conan and the Detective Boys. He also grows increasingly aware of being OvershadowedByAwesome by private/amateur detectives like Heiji, Subaru, Amuro, and Sera though he still reluctantly accepts their help. He's also often annoyed to Kogoro's presence, contrasting to him being reliant on Kogoro in the series' beginning. Justified from the story's standpoint: They needed to show how awesome Conan truly is compared to the adults and authorities.

* AdultsAreUseless: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. On one hand he depends on Shinichi/Conan to solve his cases and rarely makes any noteworthy deductions himself, and as a cop, he very much goes by the rules and is not accustomed to taking a leap of faith. On the other hand he is very useful as Shinichi's trusted police contact, granting him access to investigation sites and case info as well as some indirect influence with the police. He is also quite the badass when given the chance, see MadeOfIron below.

* KickTheDog: Was sometimes a bit of a {{Jerkass}} to Takagi when he was interested in Satou, mocking his failures and was generally a lot more willing to play dirty to keep Takagi from developing a relationship with Satou. However...

* ActionSurvivor: The guy has been in life-threatening danger HOW many times...?

* ObliviousToLove: While quite a few people in this series has this, she has all of them beat; she has never once twigged to the fact that Takagi, Shiratori, and ''every other single man in her department'' find (or used to find) her attractive, often leading to humorous misunderstandings. (Especially when a mischievous Yumi shamelessly [[CrowningMomentOfFunny takes advantage of that cluelessness to prank the rest of the department.]])

* AloneWithThePsycho: [[spoiler:Episode 535, when he catches a huge DistressBall. Sato calls him to his cellphone and the killer tries forcing Takagi to tell her to come... [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome and he breaks his phone instead to cut off direct contact]]. The police come to his aid, but Takagi still gets shot ''and'' had already been beaten bloody [[BatterUp with a baseball bat]].]]

** To put to perspective, it takes ''nearly 100 chapters after said boyfriend's introductory arc'' before Yumi discovers he's a shogi player. Even after previously helping escort him back to his title match in time in an earlier arc and having him be called Meijin in front of her.

* OfficialCouple: Seems to go this way with Shukichi Haneda, her [[NewOldFlame ex boyfriend.]]

* SelectiveObliviousness: She ''does'' have a LoveInterest (hinted as early as episode 427/volume 49) despite her vehement denials. Said love interest happens to be a professional [[TabletopGame/{{Shogi}} shogi]] player who had privately decided himself as unworthy of her until he can win all seven shogi titles. Naturally, Yumi is clueless of his ambitions and the fact that he is a celebrity, though to be fair she doesn't seem to follow the news about shogi and similar sports..

* TheBigDamnKiss: She gives one to [[http://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/File:ShukichiYumiKiss.jpg her ex-boyfriend]], [[spoiler: Shukichi Haneda.]]

* HiddenDepths: She can be incredibly kind and understanding, if her interaction with her ex-boyfriend is anything to go by.

* MultipleChoicPast: {{Justified|Trope}}. Given Shiratori is a CanonImmigrant, there is some discrepancies in his backstory -- In the non-canon movie, he is new to the force. After Shiratori was incorporated into the manga, it was later said he had been on the force longer than Takagi.

* PleaseKeepYourHatOn: The reason he wears this hat is to [[spoiler:hide the [[GoodScarsEvilScars ugly scar]] he sustained in the incident discussed in MayDecemberRomance, below. Not out of shame, but to avoid questions on why he and his wife have similar scars]].

He is also quite the badass when given the chance, see MadeOfIron below.

* ChildhoodFriendRomance: [[spoiler:With Kobayashi-sensei. He ''thought'' that Sato was a girl he once saved years ago (and who he had liked ever since then), which sparked the LoveTriangle. She actually was...not, and he lost to Takagi anyway. Some time later, the girl he liked as a child ''did'' appear [[FirstgirlAfterAll and she turned out]] to be the aforementioned Kobayashi. They're together now.]]

* CanonImmigrant: He first appeared in the {{Non Serial Movie}}s, then became a regular.

* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: {{Subverted}} [[spoiler:with [[CoolTeacher Kobayashi.]] They ''used'' to fit in the trope [[spoiler: during [[ForgottenFirstMeeting their first and almost last encounter]] when [[ChildhoodFriendRomance they were children]] ]], but [[spoiler: when they found each other again 20 years later, Sumiko had grown into a much gentler ShrinkingViolet and Shiratori was more [[{{Pride}} arrogant]] than savvy. [[OfficialCouple They still got together]].]]

* UpperClassTwit: {{Downplayed}}. Shiratori is by no means an incompetent detective or man in general; this is just the worse he can be in cases when his arrogance gets the best of him.

DubNameChange: Superintendent Kristopher McLaughlin.

* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Naeko.
* ChildhoodFriends: With Naeko and Sakurako Yonehara. [[ChildhoodFriendRomance We know his current status with the former.]]
* ForgottenFirstMeeting: With Naeko.

* WeightWoe: Zig-zagged. He starts to diet in chapter 942 - 944 on Naeko's insistence (though he doesn't realize it was by her manipulation), and the results are ''gorgeous''. However, Naeko started to realize their department's [[ChickMagnet policewomen started to find him attractive]], and resolved to feed Chiba box full of chocolates [[StatusQuoIsGod to get him chubby again]].

* ChildhoodFriends: With Officer Chiba and Sakurako Yonehara. [[ChildhoodFriendRomance We know her current status with the former.]]
