Serena Sebastian[1], known as Sonoko Suzuki (鈴木園子 Suzuki Sonoko?) in the original Japanese anime and manga, is a character of the anime and manga Case Closed, known in Japan as Detective Conan (名探偵コナン Meitantei Conan).
[edit] Character Information
Serena is also a childhood friend of Rachel Moore (Ran Mori) & Jimmy Kudo (Shinichi Kudou) [4] [5], and also the second daughter of Samuel Sebastian [6] (鈴木 史郎 Suzuki Shirō in Japanese), the owner of Sebastian Financial Group (Suzuki Financial Group in Japanese verson) [7] (鈴木財閥 Suzuki Zaibatsu in Japanese). She is flighty and perky, and yet is also a very loyal friend for Rachel, as well as quite less spoiled than it's expected from her social background.
She has a love for flirting with cute boys. Serena has a typical additude that would come from a girl her age. She often teases Rachel for the fact that she knows that Rachel still loves Jimmy Kudo (Shin'ichi Kudo) [8]. Although she is still in a "seeking" mode, her actual, constant boyfriend is Makoto Kyogoku who she does love very much. In fact, she's often sad over how she doesn't see Makoto often, and later worried when he didn't call her for a few days, thinking that he didn't love her anymore. She even sent him a vase she made, and made chocolate for him at a mountain lodge famous for having its chocolate keep lovers together (she tried to make him a sweater as well, but it turned out to be too hard and she quit half way through).
[edit] Solving Crimes
Conan often uses Serena in the same way he uses Richard Moore, to solve cases because she can be rather vain, and decides not to question how she solved a case while sleeping[9] . Conan tends to use her when Richard Moore is not around[10]. She is his "back-up ace detective" who will "solve" the crime when the police are stumped. Conan has solved multiple cases with Serena's "help"[11]. Conan usually knocks Serena out with his Stun-dart watch, then imitates her voice with his Voice-changing bow-tie[12]. The police put more trust in an older teenage girl, then a young child, so Serana's deductions usually are considered, while Conan's are usually just thrown out. Eventually the police come to respect Serena as a sort of amateur "detective" or a person with a good deductive reasoning mind [13]. When Serena wakes up she usually takes full credit for whatever crime she "solved", although she appears to be a little confused. Jimmy claims he has created "another monster" , by doing the same thing to Serena that he did with Richard Moore[14]. Now these two people think even better of themselves than they used to [15].
