Chianti (Case Closed)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Chianti is a fictional character in the anime/manga series Case Closed

[edit] Character Information

Chianti is first introduced to the Case Closed series in episode 425 as an experienced assassin. She works with an older partner known as Korn. In the anime, her sniping range limit is revealed to be 600 yards, making her a less experienced sniper than her partner Korn, as well as her FBI rival, Shuichi Akai. It is also revealed that Chianti heavily resents Vermouth (even saying that if she gets captured, she won't hesitate to shoot her, and she would've killed her a long time ago if it weren't for her being the boss's favorite). This is partly due to the events of episode 345 concerning the suicidal death of Calvados indicating a possible romantic relationship (as revealed by Korn). Though quite skilled, she appears to be one of the less ranking members, as Gin and Vermouth appear to be over her and Korn's mission.

As far as appearance goes, Chianti takes on a goth-like appearance. She wears a black dress and dark lipstick, as well as has a dark tattoo on her left eye. In the anime, she speaks with a distinct accent, and unlike the other members(aside from her partner), she rarely smiles, however, appears to somewhat have a sense of humor proven in the beginning of ep425 when she and Korn are practing sniping and he misses.

As of the current storyline, she is looking for Kir along with the other members. She participated in a mission in bringing back Kir, which succeeded thanks to Gin. She's about to kill Camel, but an explosion interferes. She flees with the other BO members.
