Kaito Kuroba is a high school class clown and magician, living a happy, carefree life with his mother and his best friend, Aoko Nakamori. Kaito lives by his late father's code of "Heart and Smile are the most important things, but don't forget Poker Face", which means he's always happy to help out anyone that's down - but don't expect him to open up himself. He is often seen teasing and pranking his closest friends and has a blunt sarcastic manner, but can really unleash the charm when he wants to, making him quite popular with the girls in his class - not that he notices. That is by day.
