comment
Kana Mizuhara is an Ordinary High-School Student who is at an arcade one night with a friend when she comes to the rescue of a fellow classmate. The classmate, she comes to learn, is Sou Touma: a MIT-graduate Teen Genius who came to Japan to attend high school like a normal student. Of course his lack of social skills and his encyclopedia knowledge on a variety of advance subjects make him far from normal.When her friend receives news her father has died, Kana drags Sou along to console her only to learn her father (a police detective) is on the scene...and Kana's friend's father was murdered.Realizing that Sou has noticed something about the murder, Kana forces him to help to find information and clues to the killer's identity. In doing so the two form a genuine friendship and the series follows them as they repeatedly stumble into crimes or are ask to investigate mysteries.Q.E.D. Shōmei Shūryō, usually shortened to Q.E.D., is a manga series written by Motohiro Katou and first began serialization in July 1997 and still going strong to this day. Initially published in Magazine Plus, the series is now featured in Magazine R under the title Q.E.D. iff following the Magazine Plus publication's cancellation.note Fun fact: it was literaly the 99th chapter before the magazine cancellation, technically making the first of the new series the 100th chapter.One of the most notable aspects about the series is its taking advantage of Sou's status as a Teen Genius; every chapter has him explaining in (accurate) detail one of number of advance subjects revolving around mathematics, cosmology, engineering and a whole host of other subjects as related the current case. This makes for a double-edged sword as translating the manga proves difficult leading to slow releases in English and other languages.Since the manga's launch, two more series by the author have been released and are ongoing: C.M.B. and Rocket Man. The first of the two, C.M.B., follows a young man who is revealed to be Sou's cousin and his friend, revolving around history and archeology as opposed to science. Rocket Man is a revolves a teenager with the skills of a trained doctor and his friend, as he investigates the mystery of his missing memories focusing as action-adventure with elements of Spy Fiction. Needless to say the author loves this dynamic. note  While its long been establish the first two series are connected, Rocket Man has yet to be featured or feature a Crossover with the other two. Though there's no reason to assume it doesn't.

comment
Title Drop: Always shown before Sou's deduction in one way or another, usually related to the case itself (as a command prompt in a case related to computers, and cards in a case related to games). Also, since the full original title is Q.E.D. - Shoumei Shuuryou and Sou's habit of ending his explanation using "Shoumei Shuuryou" (translated into "End of demonstration") can be considered act of one.

Good is Not Nice: In one case, Sou Touma mercilessly humiliates the culprit in front of his friends for accidentally hurting Kana's arm in his roundabout trick, erasing any chance of redemption for the said culprit. See Disproportionate Retribution trope above.

comment
Not-So-Fake Prop Weapon: This happens in one case where a male lead in a movie was accidentally stabbed by an actress during filming with a lot of press covering the scene. Investigation then said that the knife used to stab the male lead could only be switched in public. It's not unintentional on the actress' behalf. She switched the knife herself using her daughter who starred in the same film as distraction.

comment
Incorruptible Pure Pureness: Sou Touma. Good is Not Nice indeed, but he can be extremely forgiving at times. When Touma discovered that Eva was the one who destroyed his thesis back then in MIT, he did not make any attempt of revenge and went as far as asking Loki to forgive her. Touma had enough motive (and brain capability) to kill everyone who had made Annie Cranernote who is implied to be his first love suffered in the past, but he did not do it because he simply is not a murderer, as acknowledged by his friends.

Flaying Alive: Serial murder victims found in iff's Doppelganger all die from massive hemorrhage before getting burned and are found with their faces in serious fear. Informants in the chapter say that the culprit, a drug cartel member called El Brujonote Spanish for "The Warlock", cast a curse to the victims so that they all see their own faces right before they die. It turns out that El Brujo skins their victims at least from the neck up and what the victims saw before they die were their own face skins hanging.

Though the way he and Kana stumble upon cases most times kind of makes him more like Jessica Fletcher.

comment
Batman Gambit: Toma employs this at the climax of the first chapter. He bluffs the suspect by pouring liquid that he says could trace the culprit's name. The liquid is just water, but the suspect scrambles it out of fear, proving himself as the culprit. The bluff will falter if the suspect maintains his cool just a little bit longer, but as Toma says in the conclusion, only machines are completely controlled by logic.

Disproportionate Retribution
 Q.E.D. (Manga) / int_50b05d30
comment
Disproportionate Retribution: Quite a few of the crimes' motivations, even the more serious crimes, are a result of seemingly minor offences blown far out of proportion by the perpetrators. Sou himself can be utterly merciless when people he cares about are hurt. An upperclassman's scheme to get a girl by engineering a conflict with her boyfriend who is also said upperclassman's friend - extremely petty considering Sou has faced actual murders - still had Sou coldly and ruthlessly humiliating said upperclassman at the end in front of the girl he was pining for and her boyfriend. All because his scheme had inadvertently hurt Kana's arm. Sou had a good yet overconfident talent manager stripped off of the latest talent he was managing and then eventually fired from the industry using said manager's own personality because he talked down to Kana twice during a contract negotiation.

The Watson: Kana plays this role, but rare for the genre, Kana is shown to be able to pretty easily follow Sou's train of thought and often helps solve the case just as much as Sou does. Even then, that's because Sou takes time to explain things to Kana (he figured out she will be more helpful if she gets what she was doing) and even then, sometimes if the explanation involved advanced science (like mathematic, for example)... yeah.

Common Tongue: Due to his past education at MIT, Sou gets to know a lot of friends and acquaintances from different parts of the world. However, they seem to know how to speak Japanese. While it's debatable whether it's a case of this or Translation Convention, Kana being Book Dumb is an argument agains the favor of the latter.

Agent Mulder: For parody purposes, there is one character of a recurring detective trio who has a habit of making deduction of linking everything to aliens or mystical/mythical things, thus people call him Mulder. To enforce said parody, he's said to have a book with "X" alphabet largely printed and attached on the front cover.

comment
Child Prodigy: Sou has a BS in Mathematics before the others even started high school. He's also quite famous at MIT, seen as one of two Aces of his year's batch with Loki. A case involves an even younger child prodigy whose parents are about to divorce because they don't agree in how to educate the kid. She's the one who, at one time, invites couples on a brink of divorce along with her own parents so that they sort out their differences using Fermat's Last Theorem as theme. Another example which serves as a twist. there's a case in iff which involves a betting website under server attack by a notorious underworld hacker called "Crash." Crash however upped the ante by attempting to take the company net security specialist's life because white hat named "Wizard" breached Crash's IP address. It turns out Wizard's current identity is a little girl named Chloe Rodriguez who got the handle name from Sou, who was implied to have used it at least back in his MIT years.

comment
Never My Fault: During "In the Corner of the Galaxy", despite being proven that it's the professor who stole the alien picture, the professor still believes that he didn't do anything wrong based on the Jonbar Hinge theory. Cue Mizuhara Kana slapping his face for trying to cover it for his own benefit and accused for being the thief. In "Red File", after the killer was captured, Director Uchiwa does this since he nearly lead his investment company into bankruptcy due to him selecting the riskiest program from one of Sou's friend, Chris Flyer. Unfortunately, Kana snaps him out of it since he should admit his own mistakes as he had a choice to choose safer options. In "Venus", after the killer was arrested, it was revealed that his motive was due to witnessing the victim's misdeeds online and decide to kill him out of heroic justice (ala Social Justice Warrior). He even goes as far as to frame innocent suspects just because they are friends with the victim. However he was corrected by the police upon their investigations that the suspects have their own personal issues and the victim himself has financial issues, which also cause some haters to fake his misdeeds online. Unfortunately, the killer refuse to accept it; he argues that it has nothing to do with him, even going as far as to demand the police to apologize and release him. It is unknown if the victim's misdeeds are true but the killer deluded himself that he has nothing to do with it when the innocent suspects has not harm him at all or even know him.

False Confession
 Q.E.D. (Manga) / int_db015585
comment
False Confession: In "Dedekind Cut", Sou did this so that Professor Hilbert would forget about John who supposedly stalks him. The reason he did it is because the professor has a persecution complex due to feeling inferior with John after Hilbert accidentally deleted John's papers which delays John from becoming an assistant. Due to that, Hilbert would makes a scene and assume that it was John who did it, creating a memory disorder and forget of him doing it. Before he confessed, Sou did try to tell him several times on why he refuse to go to court to accused John but Hilbert keeps forgetting, rejecting his answer. With no other choice and also partials to be blame for making him remember back note Since Sou gives Hilbert the answer 'Dedekind Cut' when Sou witness Hilbert's actions years ago., he decides to 'confess' so that he would forget the whole incident with John. It works.

Thanatos Gambit: The focus character in iff.'s "Posthumous Letter" tries to set up this up. He kills himself, but then he makes a will in the form of a video whose location he hides with an envelope sent after his death that seemingly looks empty unless its content is viewed with the kaleidoscope he gives his girlfriend's son as Christmas present for clues.

Ship Tease
 Q.E.D. (Manga) / int_dcb9c541
comment
Ship Tease: Happens once in a while with Sou and Kana in the manga. In fact, the manga has this going until "The Rainbow Mirror" case and beyond, after which the tease is non-subtly phased out for clear affection from both sides (and still able to make it platonic). The live action series is even more blatant, with a love song playing over the pair as the ending theme. The penultimate episode even ends with Kana taking an imaginary picture of Sou and holding it to her heart, and the finale is a Maybe Ever After that all but outright states they're a couple now. There's also some between Alan Blade and Ellie. Despite his often spoiled and rude characteristics, he seems to hold her and her loyalty in special regard and confidence. There's also hints that despite Ellie's exasperation with him sometimes, she sticks with him out of more than just being a loyal secretary. Confirmed in chapter 43 where Alan proposes and she gladly accepts.

No "Arc" in "Archery": Averted. Sou solved a case where a man is shot with an arrow using a bow in the end of a low corridor, and one of the facts he quickly notes is that the shot is almost impossible to do.

Faking the Dead: A case involves someone gathering people who hated him in his private cruise and faked his own stabbing so that those who hated him would be afraid to kill him later on. However, he didn't predict that one of them would stab him equal to the amount of potential suspect, thus killing him for good.
