TV Special
Description
Hercule Barton, known as Elly, is a 16-year-old female detective student born October 21. She stands 151 cm tall, weighs 46 kg, and has blood type AB. A member of the Milky Holmes detective team, she traces her lineage to the fictional detective Hercule Poirot.
Elly exhibits extreme shyness and passivity, often struggling to join conversations or endure direct eye contact. This timidity frequently leads others to overlook her, though she sometimes tries to act as the group's voice of reason. Despite her social anxiety, flashes of determination reveal actions that speak louder than her words. She possesses notable sexual knowledge compared to her teammates, reacting strongly to suggestive situations—fleeing requests for compromising poses or earnestly explaining risqué performances. In an effort to conquer her fears, she once worked as an art model, an experience that resulted in nightmares about being scrutinized.
Her innate supernatural ability, her Toy, grants superhuman strength. While the main anime series largely undemonstrates this power after the team loses their Toys early on, it surfaces in critical moments. Documented feats include blocking a sword strike, shattering a levitated boulder, swinging an excavator like a baseball bat, and effortlessly lifting and throwing a whale.
Her portrayal varies across media. In the PSP game, she displays combat prowess, deflecting attacks from adversaries like Stone River. The anime depicts her as largely timid post-Toy loss, yet hints at hidden traits through her reading of explicit manga and censored thought bubbles suggesting covert perverse tendencies. Her emotional resilience emerges when provoked, such as participating in vengeful retaliation after the destruction of the team's garden in Season 2. She may harbor romantic feelings for her teammate Nero Yuzurizaki.
In spin-offs like *Futari wa Milky Holmes*, Elly transitions into a mentor role for new protagonists, reflecting a more competent and respected version of herself. This iteration, aligning closer to her visual novel and OVA depictions, retains her reserved nature but allows her to contribute more steadily to investigations.
