Wakasa Rumi Theory Series: Part 2 of 3

Hello lovelies! This is my second part of my Wakasa Rumi Theory that will go over my thoughts about Haneda Koji's murder and his dying message.

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD

Just for reference, I already covered the first three points in Part 1 and the ones in bold are the ones I'm covering in this post:

Why I think she's Asaca.

Her probable relationship to Haneda Koji.

How she became Amanda's bodyguard.

What might have happened on the day of Haneda Koji's murder.

How Haneda Koji's dying message directly refers to RUM as his killer.

Why Wakasa went on a hiatus for 17 years since the murder.

Reason behind Haibara liking Wakasa.

With that out of the way, happy reading 😁💛.

4. What might have happened on the day of Haneda Koji's murder.

So based on the blog that uploaded, we know that two people were killed in each of their own hotel rooms; Haneda Koji and Amanda Hughes (an investor who holds powerful connections to the FBI and CIA). While Haneda Koji showed bruises and signs of struggle against his assailant, the actual cause of his death was unclear, as well as with Amanda Hughes. (In reality, the cause of his death is because of APTX-4869 and the same can be assumed for Amanda). Both rooms were left in a total mess with crockery and glass broken as well as taps left running in the bathroom. Amanda was a huge fan of Haneda Koji and happened to visit him in his room the day of the murder before they were killed. Also on the same day, her bodyguard whom she called 'Asaca' disappeared and she is the main suspect of the murders. Interestingly, something else went missing from the crime scene which was Haneda Koji's Watchtower Bishop (a shogi piece he deemed as his lucky charm). His family is convinced he would never parted without the shogi piece and whoever has it must be the murderer.

All these accusations point to Wakasa because not only has she disappeared for 17 years and her identity is shrouded in mystery, but she also has the exact shogi piece that went missing from the crime scene...So, what exactly happened?

Based on the fact that only Haneda Koji's body was bruised, I'd say he put up a fight after witnessing Amanda's death. The likelihood that he used the taps in her bathroom to cut the mirror before fleeing to his room where he was then finished off is very possible. Why? The case similar to 17 years ago foreshadowed it.

I'm guessing when Amanda was murdered, Wakasa was probably out for whatever reason and upon her return, she saw Amanda's state. She then walked in and saw Haneda's body. The reason why I'm convinced she discovered their bodies and did not happen to be there when they died was her reaction in Chapter 1032 to blood and her obvious knowledge about how bodies do not necessarily smell until days later after their death. This could very well imply she lived through this before, which is why she is so knowledgeable of the topic. And smelling blood, reminded her of when she found Haneda dead in his room.

She then noticed the cut up mirror with one part of it looking like a shogi piece. As she picked it up, RUM returned to clean up and they ended up struggling in a fight before she managed to escape. The reason why I think Wakasa was in a physical fight with RUM was how triggered she seemed when she saw him leave the school after his delivery. The way she looked at him with such apprehension, it shows as if she were remembering their interaction before.

She would turn out to be RUM's mistake. He couldn't finish her off and not only did he leave a loose end, but she also ran away with a crucial part of Haneda Koji's dying message, leaving RUM unable to fully destroy the crime scene. Also RUM is clearly aware of its significance to Haneda Koji's dying message. Especially after he not-so-subtly mentioned it to Conan in Chapter 1057.

The final thing in relation to this part of the theory is Wakasa's flashback of Haneda Koji in the Collecting Edible Wild Plants Chapter. Why was she calling him a fool? It made a lot of sense when I found out the actual meaning of the proverb Haneda Koji said in her flashback.

The proverb he said is 'with a watchtower bishop there must be a brilliant move'. This proverb translates to the Bishop should stay at a distance while aiming at the opponent's camp rather than approaching them directly. Now that we know the actual meaning of the proverb, Wakasa's words make more sense. She guessed that he probably underestimated RUM and approached him rather than escaping him. Hence why Wakasa refers to him as a foolish person because in the end he got himself killed. Not because she thinks he's a fool and she managed to kill him. Again, a classic on Gosho's part to frame innocent characters as threatening and dangerous when the truth is she is just extremely upset over his death. Her collapse to the ground shows just how much Haneda meant to her. If anything, she probably like Rei, feels guilty she couldn't save him in time, which is why the memory of him is so triggering to her.

Phew, finally done with the fourth point 😂 There really was so much to unpack there. Anyways, I hope it made sense...

5. How Haneda Koji's dying message directly refers to RUM as his killer.

Now that it has been confirmed that RUM is Wakita, I'll be showing how Haneda Koji's dying message refers to "RUM", aka Carasuma's number 2.

The key to solving the message lies in the broken mirror and linking it to the shogi piece. Akai and Yusaku already solved the true meaning behind the broken mirror. The remaining pieces on the mirror had the letter PTON. These letters are not needed and the letters that do matter are the scattered ones from the original 'PUT ON MASCARA'. If we remove PTON we are left with U MASCARA which was then rearranged to CARASUMA. However, one letter in particular was cut out in the form of a shogi piece. If we write 'CARASUMA' with the shogi piece border around the letter U, it will seem as if it is hinting to another message within CARASUMA. That would form a word: UMA. UMA translates to Dragon Horse and is the promoted version of the Watchtower Bishop (the shogi piece held by Haneda Koji). (Promoted in shogi means to simply flip the original shogi piece to use its 'levelled-up' power...It's the same piece not two separate shogi pieces). Therefore, if we flip Haneda Koji's shogi piece, it will show UMA which is the more powerful form of the Watchtower bishop.

Anyways, what is the significance of UMA and how does it relate to anything? Well, Uma in shogi is the second strongest shogi piece. The strongest shogi piece is Dragon King (Ryū). Based on this we can assume this is the dying message. UMA of Carasuma (second strongest / number 2 aka RUM) of Carasuma killed me. This might seem too far-fetched but there was too much coincidence when I found out about Uma's strength as a shogi piece that it made sense to me to think that Haneda Koji's dying message points straight to RUM. However, I'm not sure how Haneda Koji figured out that RUM is Carasuma's number 2 in the first place. Maybe it was during his struggle against him before his death or maybe he overheard Amanda before her death talk about it, but so far this is what i came up with.

I hope you guys enjoyed this part of my theory. The final points will be addressed in Part 3 (linked here) so have fun 😁💛

Wakasa Rumi theory

I know that most people suspect that Rumi is Asaca however this theory has a few holes. Asaca is said to be a woman simply because of a mirror however there is also the possibility that Asaca was a man. If Rumi is Asaca it means she was super awesome sauce and ready to work as a body guard for some really wealthy and important person only at the age of 20? Which I dun think it is very likely.

So, we know that in this case Rum was involved and that he likes to change his appearance , given that there have been reports of him being a woman as well and not just a man. Asaca was Rum and he was supposed to keep an eye on Amanda and kill her most likely. Quite possibly Haneda Koji got caught up in this whole thing because Amanda was his fan.

When Koji died, most likely Amanda and Rum(disguised as Asaca) were there in Haneda’s room. Perhaps Amanda figured out that Asaca was Rum and she perhaps wanted Haneda’s help or Haneda for some reason was already aware of the BO but for this I have no evidence and it is just speculation, either way the possibility of him not being too connected and just a “side victim” is much more likely. Perhaps Amanda wanted to leave with him some info she had, my suspicion is that Amanda who has ties with FBI and CIA was prob an executive for them , she felt the danger and tried to convey it to someone available at the moment, Haneda, however, Asaca/rum followed her there and bfore Koji was to know more things he was given the APTX 4869 and was killed in front of Amanda’s eyes then because it would seem strange, Rum subdued Amanda easily , she was old after all, and as such brought her to the hotel to kill her, perhaps gave her the APTX 4869 the first version I assume, the one Hell Angel made.

Now for some reason, this is the screw up Rum did, he did not confirm that Amanda died , perhaps at that moment Tsutomu Akai arrived there -- would not be surprising for another agent to be in on this case or even by chance he followed Rum when transporting Amanda to her place to kill her there . either way I believe Tsutomu got in his way which was probably the reason why he had to ‘disappear'. So Tsutomu got in the way and Rum had to flee to not be caught at the scene hence the bodyguard poofs. This leaves Tsutomu finding Amanda perhaps reverted to a much younger age [ prob this pill had that effect on her. like it did with Conan] so now Amanda is back to being young and there is no Amanda body which meant only one thing. They had to fake the death and it would not be hard if she asked for help from FBI or CIA [ i would assume CIA? ] or even MI6 since Tsutomu was there...[ but this is crazy speculation and I have no great evidence for the MI6 scenario] either way though Amanda had to fake her death [ the same shinichi did ] and went into hiding. Now the problem with the eye that Rumi has might be because of her fight with Rum in Haneda’s room.

another reason why i think that we are being hinted towards the Amanda is Rumi theory is because of the lipstick color both Rumi and Amanda wear.

how is Kuroda connected to this case? We dunno many things yet but from my guess , he has deduced that Rum was in on this case and as such he is interested since it is B.O. case.

Asaca-Mary thoughts

I bought volume 90 two weeks ago and I’m reading it with calm. I noticed a particular (probably you all had already noticed it from the beginning but I’m stupid so I see things after a lot of time! XD) that had made me think about the fact that there’s a possibility that Mary is Asaca. Conan had thought, at first, that Mary could be Rum; then when he saw how she had knocked out the culprit in file 953, he thought that she could be someone from the secret service (probably MI6 since Mary is English and had lived in England for many years).

What made me real think Mary could be Asaca are the words Subaru says, talking to Sonoko and Ran, in file 954:

Let’s analyse them:

- “Someone is always careful”: Mary is very careful to not show/expose herself too much, that’s why she hides in hotel rooms and let Masumi to be the one to investigate outside. Don’t forget that she is so suspicious even with Conan that she immediately said they had to move to another hotel after Conan has found out about her. Mary also shown to be careful when she quarreled with Shuichi because he wanted to join FBI and investigate about his father’s death. - “and also skilled at bringing down their opponents”: Just look at the images over there from file 953, also Conan is impressed of how skilled she is at knocking out her opponents. It’s clear that Mary is really skilled at fight.

So, Subaru’s words fit with Mary’s character, especially if we consider that he first asked if this person was around Masumi. If Asaca is another person, why should he/she be around Masumi, who wasn’t even born when Haneda has been murdered (and so he/she isn’t supposed to know about her existence)? Could it be that Mary wasn’t an MI6 but instead a bodyguard that suddenly has been involved in the murder of the person she was protecting and accused of being the culprit (so Rum)? That could explain why the Akai family is so attached to Koji Haneda (Mary was his bodyguard and probably he even knew Tsutomu) and why Tsutomu has started to investigate about that case at the point of clashing with the BO (his wife was suspected of being a murderer and a big deal in a criminal organization). I was 90% sure that Mary was an ex-MI6, but after noticing this I’m starting to think it could be a valuable option too.

Wakasa Rumi Theory Series: Part 3 of 3

So this is it, the final part of my Wakasa Rumi Theory Series!

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD

Here I'll be talking about the last two points in bold. Part 1 and Part 2 already covered points 1-3 and points 4-5.

Why I think she's Asaca

Her probable relationship to Haneda Koji.

How she became Amanda's bodyguard.

What might have happened on the day of Haneda Koji's murder.

How Haneda Koji's dying message directly refers to RUM as his killer.

Why Wakasa went on a hiatus for 17 years since the murder.

Reason behind Haibara liking Wakasa.

As usual, happy reading 😁💛

6. Why Wakasa went on a hiatus for 17 years since the murder.

Now this point will have so many things that will go into it, so hopefully no one gets lost along the way 🙌🏼

As per my theory in Part 2, I believe Wakasa had a full on confrontation with RUM after she found Haneda Koji dead. And now that she's also the lead suspect for a crime she didn't commit, the logical thing would be that she goes into hiding. The first case she was ever involved in (Chapter 968) foreshadowed the possibility of someone going into hiding for years. And after literally crossing paths with a dangerous BO member, she probably changed her appearance. This was also foreshadowed in the Pro-golfer murderer case that probably hints to the fact that she is in disguise or had plastic surgery altogether. That's why I'm not entirely sure if we can judge that she could be Atsushi's sister based on appearance (I talked about it in an ask here).

Now during the time she was in hiding, she could have still been trying to investigate the BO or trying to find a way to infiltrate it. During that time, she must have crossed paths with Kuroda 10 years ago. If they were both investigating around the same time, they could have very well crossed paths. Her reaction to meeting Kuroda the first time was just as triggered as when she saw Wakita leave the school, except this time, she wasn't as scared to talk back to Kuroda which implies she has interacted with him before and knows of him. At the same time, Kuroda's knowing smirk when he found out Wakasa was going on a camping trip. Implying it's not like her to go camping further strengthens that they met each other before.

Then, Kuroda must have fallen a victim to the accident that put him in a coma for 10 years. During that time, Wakasa must have trained even more and eventually joined some security or intelligence department like the PSB, FBI, CIA or MI6. I am drawing more parallels of her character based on Jodie who was very suspicious in the Vermouth arc but was in fact an FBI agent. Another such similarity is just like Jodie lived in a high rise apartment that Heiji noted is very expensive for an English teacher, Wakasa also lives in an expensive building. A pro-golfer even lived there so rent must have not been cheap.

So yes, my theory is Wakasa started working for some intelligence security department ever since Kuroda's accident and her main goal was to investigate the BO and steal information about them. If like Haibara she managed to hack into the BO's database, the following points would make sense:

She holds a very recent list of the APTX-4869 victims that has Kudo Shinichi on it.

She managed to find out about Miyano Shiho and 'Hell Angel'.

She could have discovered that Amuro is a BO agent which is why she fought him to retrieve the shogi piece, especially after Kobayashi-sensei introduced him as a private eye.

She described Karasu as someone that has 'Karasu' in their name as someone who is difficult to approach and a conspirator so it's very likely she tried to infilitrate the BO to get close to him.

The reason why she briefly triggered Haibara's BO sense was because she recalled her confrontation with Wakita while gripping the bishop and Uma shogi piece that refers to him in Haneda Koji's dying message.

Now coming onto the final point in this series:

7. Why Haibara likes Wakasa.

I don't know if I am entirely convinced it's because Haibara is in fact related to Wakasa or if her being Atsushi's sister bears any weight since we can't really judge by appearances if Wakasa did get plastic surgery or is sporting a disguise. But, let's backtrack a little. When Okiya Subaru was first introduced, Conan was incredibly trusting of what seemed to be a very suspicious character. Turns out this is because he was Akai in disguise and Conan was the mastermind behind this. Haibara may not be the mastermind behind Wakasa's situation but I'm guessing she knows something about her that we don't and it shall be revealed to us later.

And that's it! Omg I can't believe how long it took me to put this out. As exhausting as it was, it was so much fun to write 😂.

(In cased you stumbled upon this post first, these are the links for Part 1 and Part 2)!

I hope you guys enjoyed it as much as I did and I'm open to everyone's thoughts and opinions 😁 💛🖤

Wakasa Rumi Theory Series: Part 1 of 3

It's been such a long time coming but I've finally done it! My Wakasa Rumi Theory is here and I can't wait to hear everyone's thoughts and opinions 🙌🏼 💛

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD

Before I jump right in, I'll be breaking down the theory into a 3 part series because there's just soo much to cover 😅. By the end of it I will have covered the following:

Why I think she's Asaca.

Her probable relationship to Haneda Koji.

How she became Amanda's bodyguard.

What might have happened on the day of Haneda Koji's murder.

How Haneda Koji's dying message directly refers to RUM as his killer.

Why Wakasa went on a hiatus for 17 years since the murder.

Reason behind Haibara liking Wakasa.

As y'all can see I'm going to cover a lot so I hope this explains why it took me so long to put it out, so sorryyyy 🙈🙏🏼 The ones in bold are the ones I'm covering in this post...

Anyways enough stalling and on with the first point:

1. Why I think Wakasa is in fact Asaca.

Well, let's start with what we know about Asaca. She is a woman who was mysteriously hired as Amanda Hughes' bodyguard, and is a strong, skilful fighter. Her identity is shrouded in mystery and ever since the murder, she has disappeared with no one knowing who she was and where she went. Now coming onto Wakasa...She's an obviously strong, ruthless fighter who was even able to take on Rei in the Eerie Farm Chapter.

There were also two foreshadowings made. The first was in chapter 954 when Akai asked if there was a careful, strong fighter who appeared around the girls and Sonoko answered that Ran is the closest person to match such a description and calling her a bodyguard. From this, we can assume Asaca, like Ran, is a fierce fighter but because they appear kind, their power is underestimated...just like Wakasa.

The second foreshadowing was the fact that Wakasa's introductory case revolved around unsolved events that started 10 years ago. I find this eerily similar to the whole Haneda Koji situation.

The last reason that makes me think Asaca is Wakasa is this panel from Chapter 1072 which is eerily similar to Asaca's picture from the blog.

Now moving onto the second part of the theory:

2. Her probable relationship to Haneda Koji.

For this part of the theory, I'll be honest I have no concrete evidence on any of my assumptions. I'm only basing them on an easter egg I noticed in the second case she was involved in. With that being said, I think she is probably his love interest. I'm not sure if they were in a relationship, but there seems to be some sort of connection between them. The reason why I don't think she is his sister is because there was no mention of a 'sister' going missing since the murder. With his family being rich and influential, they would have also made a fuss about their daughter going missing. So the likelihood that Wakasa is related to him through blood is slim. However, if she was his girlfriend or just someone he loved, his family may not have necessarily found out about her yet. Also the second case she was involved in since her introduction served as an easter egg in my opinion.

In Chapter 978, the case was about a sports player flying overseas for a championship and was leaving his girlfriend behind. While the events are not 100% identical, there are subtle similarities between the case and Haneda Koji travelling overseas for a chess championship.

One last thing I noticed is a parallel between her flashbacks and Jodie's flashbacks of her father's murder.

In the Vermouth Arc, there was a lot of speculation that Jodie could be Vermouth and she was the one who killed the man from her memories, but that did not turn out to be the case. In the current RUM arc, it was presumed that Asaca is RUM but that also has been debunked. Wakasa's memories of Haneda Koji would seem to imply she was the one who murdered him, but judging by Gosho's pattern of making innocent characters seem most suspicious, and the fact that Asaca isn't RUM (who is the true murderer), it just makes me believe that Wakasa is probably his love interest just like Jodie was the daughter.

Onto the third part of the theory:

3. How did Wakasa become Amanda's bodyguard.

If Wakasa isn't lying about her age, she would have been 20 years old at the time of the murder. Most probably at 20, it is hard to believe she would have been a full-time employee for some security company. Therefore, one can assume if she was Haneda Koji's love interest and he is aware of her skills, he could have offered Amanda that Wakasa helps guard her for the time they're spending in the States. So if this was done as a favour between friends, it would make sense why Amanda's family knew nothing about her or how she was hired. This is just my speculation but I honestly can't think of anything else to explain how she became her bodyguard 😂.

This is it for this post! In Part 2, I'll discuss what might have happened in the murder and the meaning behind the dying message (linked here). So I hope you enjoyed this post and happy reading for the next one 😁💛

Well, I have read a very long interesting theory explains with details and some evidences from DC manga that Wakasa Rumi is Asaca herself; the missing fugitive bodyguard of Amanda Hughes,, and for me I won't be surprised if this theory is turned out to be true.. But however, the same long theory also tells another very shocking thing that I would never thought about.. and until now I'm still surprised,, it assumes that Wakasa (who is Asaca) is the third sister for both Elena and Mary, which means that she's Ai's blood relative 🙄🙄.. and this explains why Haibara feels comfortable with her, and not even afraid of her as her fear from BO members' aura 😳😳. I will be more shocked if this theory turns out to be true and official in the manga.. what is your opinion about that ?? I can't wait to discover the reality behind this mysterious character !!!

Oh I'm a 1000% sure Wakasa is Asaca. Especially when I saw this panel in chapter 1072 that's eerily similar to Asaca's introduction in chapter 948.

I'm not entirely sure about her being Elena or Mary's third sister to be completely honest because she doesn't look like them at all. She could however be Atsushi's sister. I don't know if it's just me but I see some resemblance between her and Atsushi looking at these pictures side by side.

Being his sister could explain why she had accesses to the APTX-4869 victim list. Although I'm not entirely convinced it's the strongest reason (I need more information to be honest).
