Personality
Eisuke is rather clumsy and has an extreme case of bad luck as he has constantly bumped into or falls over something several times. Despite his clumsiness, He is a brilliant detective and also extremely intelligent. Even from a very young age, he was very intuitive and observant and has become well-known as a very skilled young detective, the "Savior of the police force" for solving many difficult cases the professionals could not. As a person, Eisuke is usually very quiet jovial, and friendly, though very emotional at times in stressful situations.

Eisuke is someone who is not good with words, as stated by Kai, and can be overly direct and blunt as he had very few close friends. As such, he can come off as a rude person to others by Ran and Minato. Eisuke seems to enjoy angering and teasing people as well and often annoyed others with his love for Sherlock Holmes, more notably Ran.

He also refrains from telling anyone of him being involved in a dangerous case or situation to keep others from getting hurt. He also cares deeply about human life, unable to understand how any reason could be sufficient motive for murder. Eisuke was convinced that driving a culprit to suicide is no better than the murder itself. This fact was strongly influent by the death of Sayaka Okudera, who had committed suicide after he reveals her to the culprit had caused him to feel a great deal of guilt for not being able to prevent her from committing suicide.

Eisuke is also rather single-minded whenever he focuses on solving a case as such he doesn't think about the feeling of other or other situation, only think about solving the case at hand. However, whatever situation switches his attention as such when initially tried to comfort Ran in London only to change attentions when she mentions Minerva Glass and asks a question about her.
