【プロレスサンデー】”ウルフフェイス” 大神敬晴
PRO-WRESTLING SUNDAY: “WOLF FACE” TAKAHARU OGAMI

漫画:　名探偵コナン
Manga/Anime: Detective Conan

Extra Notes:

Let’s get something straight here. Takaharu Ogami has never been a main character in Detective Conan. He’s not even a notable supporting character in the show. He was just one of those minor characters that appeared in two episodes as one of the suspects in the murder of his fellow pro-wrestler. (SPOILER ALERT: He isn’t the killer.) Plus, his “Wolf Face” wrestling persona is pretty much a knockoff of the Tiger Mask character, in the same way that one of the other characters in those episodes was an obvious kn0ckoff of Antonio Inoki.

So this probably makes you wonder: why did I use this character?

Well, I’m a Detective Conan fan, and I’m a pro-wrestling fan. If possible, I want to cross the two over in some way, shape, or form. And since Detective Conan already has a pro-wrestler character, I figured that I use that character. Besides, until now I still feel thrilled that Gosho Aoyama actually thought about doing a Detective Conan story based on pro-wrestling.

Plus, I like the Takaharu Ogami character. A good-looking junior heavyweight wrestler that fights under a Wolf Face persona. It would be a shame if he only gets used in a couple of episodes. I wanna try and expand more on this character sometime soon. So yeah, I’m probably going to give this highly obscure character a new life in Manga Pro-Wrestling.

But you know what’s weird? I thought I was the first one to do a fan art of this character. Apparently, though, someone else beat me to it already.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this piece.
