Kuroba Touichi was the original Kaitou Kid. He is Kuroba Kaito's deceased father. As Kaitou Kid, he was the greatest jewel thief in Japan as well as the best stage magician in Japan until he was murdered in a fake magic accident. Sometime prior to his death Touichi had his attendant and friend Jii Kounosuke promise him that he would never tell Kaito about his thieving. Touichi ceased to be Kaitou Kid only upon his death in a fake magic accident arranged by a mysterious rival group.
