Magic is not real—everyone knows that. When performed by a true expert, however, magic possesses the ability to amaze and wonder its audience. Kaito Kuroba, son of world-famous stage magician Touichi Kuroba, is no stranger to this fact. Well-versed in the arts of deception and misdirection, Kaito frequently disrupts the lives of those around him with flashy tricks and pranks. But when Kaito accidentally stumbles upon a hidden passage in his home, he discovers a secret that may well have been the cause of his father's death eight years ago—the dove-white outfit of Kid the Phantom Thief. Wanting to find out more about his father, Kaito dons the outfit and searches for the Pandora Gem that is said to grant immortality. However, he is not the only one after the gem—the organization responsible for his father's death is also hot on his tail! Magic Kaito follows the rebirth of Kaitou Kid, phantom thief of the night. Utilizing his dummies, disguises, and signature card gun, Kaito sets out to steal the world's most precious jewels, uncovering the truth behind his father's death and the rumored Pandora Gem along the way.

Dude if I could have half the flair this boy has, I'd be living the good life. Lupin may have walked so Kaito could run, but man is this boy RUNNING. It's no wonder he's become one of the most popular characters in the Detective Conan universe. This set of OVAs covers different chapters in the Magic Kaito manga with some pretty spectacular animation at certain times. There's at least one scene that always sticks with me as one of the best instances of overchoreography done right. Some minor details may be changed from the manga, but it usually gives the plot some more pizazz oris barely noticeable. If you're looking to watch an adaptation of Magic Kaito and don't know where to start, I would recommend watching this first before 1412. I personally found this iteration more stylish and enjoyable, even if some of the minor changes weren't my cup of tea. I also just think it's funny that Kaito and Shinichi look near-identical, as well as Ran and Aoko. I'm sure that was intentional and is even used as a plot point at times, but hey, that's a good way to respond to "same face syndrome" in my book. Overall? Very enjoyable adaptation. If you're not familiar with Conan, I feel you can watch this just fine, even if some references to its plot aren't recognizable to you. It can just about stand on its own as a story.
