User:MushroomMan674/Rachel Moore (Case Closed)

Ran Mori (毛利 蘭), known in the United States as Rachel Moore, is a main protagonist in the manga series, Case Closed, created by Gosho Aoyama. An expert in karate, she is the childhood friend-turned girlfriend of Jimmy Kudo, whom she doesn't know is Conan Edogawa, after being forced to take the APTX 4869 drug that shrank him to the size of a child. Her name is derived from the Japanese pronunciation of the name Maurice Leblanc (モーリス・ルブラン), a famous novelist.

In Case Closed
Rachel, like Jimmy, is a 16-year-old student at Teitan High School ("Titan" in the US English anime) in Tokyo. She is the daughter of Richard Moore (Kogoro Mouri), a private detective, and Eva Kadan (Eri Kisaki), a lawyer. Her parents separated when she was seven, and one of her biggest goals is to get them back together. Her best friend is her classmate Serena Sebastian (Sonoko Suzuki), who often teases her about her relationship with Jimmy. When she was ten years old, Rachel developed an interest in karate after witnessing national champion Satoru Maeda. By age sixteen, she had developed into a highly skilled martial artist, captaining Teitan's karate club.

She first met Jimmy when the two were little children. She started to like him at first when she noticed he was wearing a paper name badge like her, so she wouldn't be bullied for being the only one without a proper badge. However, the two really became close after Rachel's home room teacher was secretly planning to kidnap her, as Jimmy, along with his father's help, were able to stop his plans. Later on in their lives, Rachel joined Jimmy on a trip to visit his parents in New York. She was there when Jimmy solved his first case and gained recognition as a detective. They met, Sharon Vineyard, the public face of Vermouth, a member of the Black Organization, and later, Shuichi Akai who warned her there was a serial killer on the prowl in the area. Rachel later encountered Vermouth in disguise as the serial killer. Vermouth would have fallen to her death, but Rachel caught her arm and Jimmy helped her pull Vermouth to safety. Due to this, Vermouth gave Rachel and Jimmy the nicknames "Angel" and "Cool Guy", respectively. Vermouth later showed hesitance to kill Rachel and later Conan as well, but whether or not it was because of any emotional attachment is unclear. It was during this trip that Rachel realized her true feelings for Jimmy, finally realizing that she is in love with him.
