Rookie detective Kaoru Utsumi (Kou Shibasaki) encounters a mysterious case of apparent spontaneous human combustion on her first assignment. Seeing her dedication, her about-to-be-transferred sempai Kusanagi suggests she meet with a friend of his, an associate professor at Teito University and the actual solver of the many strange cases he'd encountered: Manabu Yukawa (Masaharu Fukuyama), a genius but odd physicist, once nicknamed "Galileo the weirdo". The two don't really get along at first, but develop respect for each other as they go on to solve many seemingly inexplicable or supernatural cases.Galileo is a Japanese Detective Drama based on the Detective Galileo book series by Keigo Higashino. Debuting in October of 2007, the series ran for two seasons, plus two TV specials and two movies. For the second season, the now experienced Kaoru is replaced by Misa Kishitani (Yuriko Yoshitaka) as a new rookie detective. | |

Older Hero vs. Younger Villain | |
| Galileo / int_14fe0d94 | comment |
Older Hero vs. Younger Villain: Episode four has this kind of dynamic between Yukawa and Tagami, as well as them being Foils for each other. Both are gifted scientists, and have admired each other's work as such, but Tagami arouses Yukawa's suspicions early on with talk of his ambitions, causing him to take an active interest in Kaoru's case. Later, Yukawa admits disappointment in seeing a promising young scientist use his talents for the wrong ends. | |

The McCoy | |
| Galileo / int_1bf3170b | comment |
The McCoy: Kaoru leans towards this, especially as compared to Yukawa's The Spock. She is a police officer, but she does do more than her duty requires or even push the envelope of the law if her conscience tells her to. She also frequently calls out Yukawa on his apparent callousness and detachment, though he just as often has a strong and poignant rebuttal on hand. | |

The Spock: Yukawa is this, clearly stating his preference for logic and reason over emotions, and able to rationally think through his options even in the face of an armed nuclear bomb. It's not so extreme that he can't occasionally show sympathy for others, but good luck getting him to admit that. | |

Vomiting Cop: Used as a bit of an Establishing Character Moment for Kaoru. When they first see the burnt corpse in episode one, Yuge, the ostensibly more experienced cop, runs for the bathroom, while rookie Kaoru just barely holds it down and stays where she is. Both her sempai and the coroner notice. And then the same situation happens again in the next episode. | |

Coat Tail Riding Relative: A relatively mild example. The father in episode two takes advantage of his son's apparent out-of-body experience to appear on talk shows and get money. However, the son is willing to do it to help out his dad, and both are seen to enjoy actually having money for a change. When Yukawa finally proves the truth, and his son tearfully tries to repeat his fake story, the father looks properly guilty and calls off the act. | |

Contrasting Sequel Main Character: Kaoru and Misa. On first appearance, the former is naive and earnest, the latter confident to the point of arrogance. They do have a strong sense of justice in common, though. Also in their first autopsy scene together, Misa is visibly squeamish and hangs back as far as possible, where Kaoru is completely unfazed by now. | |

Renaissance Man: Fitting to his nickname, Yukawa appears to be this. In addition to his specialty being physics (which is already a broad field), he is knowledgeable about other fields, including biology, mathematics, engineering, and electronics. He is physically fit, and shown to be capable at squash, boxing, archery, baseball, and badminton. He does wood sculpting, and cooks. Also, despite acting like he doesn't care, he does have a good insight into human psychology and knows when to keep his mouth tactfully shut. Sometimes. | |

Police Are Useless: Not in general, since the female protagonist of both seasons is a police detective, but Yuge in Season One tends to be played as an incompetent/lazy jerk as a foil to Kaoru. Yuge's season two Spiritual Successor, Otagawa, fares a little better, partly because Misa herself acts pretty jerkish towards him. | |

Alternative Character Interpretation | |
| Galileo / int_5e7163c9 | comment |
Alternative Character Interpretation: Happens in-story, concerning the culprit of episode one. After his confession, Kaoru is inclined to think he's a timid person pushed too far, whose plan to scare the delinquents by making some trash burst into flames went horribly right. Yukawa later points out that a) the guy works with that laser cutter daily and knows damn well how powerful it is, and b) he made repeated attempts for over three months, when someone wanting to simply frighten would have long given up; rather than timid, he is obsessive and calculating. Yukawa is proven right. | |

It works, as Tagami confessed afterwards. | |

Laser-Guided Karma | |
| Galileo / int_90e31482 | comment |
Laser-Guided Karma: Episode three. Old lady Takano already had a bad heart, and it would arguably have been possible to say her death was accidental, especially since her nephew was genuinely upset and Kanzaki is a trusting kind of guy. Killing and burying him instead is exactly what brought Kaoru and Yukawa into the case, caused the "poltergeist" phenomenon, and ultimately got the bad guys arrested. Not to mention the entry under Irony, above. | |

Magic Feather: Kanako's pendulum. As Yukawa discovers, it's a perfectly ordinary crystal, and the swinging came from Kanoko herself in the form of involuntary muscle movements. In effect, all the pendulum did was confirm Kanoko's own subconscious thoughts that she was afraid to act on. | |

Idiosyncratic Episode Naming: Each episode name (before translation) is a single verb in infinitive form, relevant to the episode's mystery. A more typically descriptive subtitle exists, but isn't shown in the episode title card. The finale of season two averts this, due to being adapted from a novel instead of a short story. | |

Oh, Crap!: Kaoru gets one of these when it's suggested that Yukawa might bill her for the very expensive experiment he's doing to prove his hypothesis on a murder. Misa gets one when Yukawa starts writing equations on a table at an expensive furniture place. Episode five of season two is a long string of this for the villain, following the botched murder attempt and Yukawa getting involved. Doesn't help that he's a half-assed planner who can't keep his cool in the first place. | |

Gut Feeling: Kaoru occasionally pulls "detective's intuition" as her basis for her beliefs concerning a case, and Yukawa will either call it illogical or outright say he doesn't care. She's usually proven right as well, but they still need to find concrete proof to actually solve a case. Yukawa does concede later that intuition is different from groundless belief, and can be an acceptable starting point...as long as they thoroughly and properly investigate it, instead of just basing their conclusion on it. | |

At that point, we can be fairly certain he's figured out the case (or at least, the scientific part of it that he's interested in). | |

Hitodama Light | |
| Galileo / int_ed249f44 | comment |
Hitodama Light: The subject phenomenon of episode five. Though they only call them "fireballs", the colour and association with a dead person evoke this trope. | |

Autopsy Snack Time | |
| Galileo / int_ee296d19 | comment |
Autopsy Snack Time: Discussed and averted. Misa is about to eat lunch in the office next to the autopsy room, and Isac comments that she's like a real detective now because of this trope. Except that Misa didn't know there was a burnt corpse next door, and promptly loses her appetite when she sees it. | |

I Got a Rock | |
| Galileo / int_f12b3d7e | comment |
I Got a Rock: A literal example, not Halloween-related. When Kaoru has to leave in season two, Yukawa gives her what looks like a ring box...and inside is a big hunk of germanium. After a bewildered look, she accepts it so he'll stop explaining its properties to her. | |

The Coroner | |
| Galileo / int_f19b8b46 | comment |
The Coroner: One per season as major recurring characters, given that most cases involve strange deaths. Jounouchi in season one is classically dry and sardonic, though female. Isac in season two appears to have some African ancestry, which is rare on Japanese TV, but otherwise acts and is treated much the same as Jounouchi. | |

Love Makes You Dumb | |
| Galileo / int_f7883b17 | comment |
Love Makes You Dumb: Discussed in episode five, and Yukawa certainly believes it. Also played straight by the victim's wife, who went against her husband's instructions to dispose of his suicide setup because they're her last mementos of him, but in doing so ruins the Insurance Fraud he killed himself for in the first place. | |

Beleaguered Assistant | |
| Galileo / int_f792ffe4 | comment |
Beleaguered Assistant: Kuribayashi for Yukawa. Unlike most cases, though, Yukawa is clearly the more competent of the two, and Kuribayashi's frustrations come from trying to keep him focused on his coursework instead of helping out the police. | |

Fake Assisted Suicide | |

Fake Assisted Suicide: Inverted in episode seven. The mistress' suicide was supposed to be faked, but the setup was sabotaged by her accomplices to kill her for real. | |

Dark Secret: In episode nine, when Teito's former Nuclear Engineering department and its professor come up, you can tell from Kuribayashi's unusually serious reaction that something important happened involving them. Kaoru eventually catches on that something's amiss, as well. | |

Laser Sight | |
| Galileo / int_f9bc2937 | comment |
Laser Sight: A justified use in the first episode. Given that the murder weapon is a remote-controlled industrial laser cutter reflected off several mirrors, a sight is required to aim it, and switching between a visible laser and the actual cutting laser makes the most sense. Even so, it's horribly inaccurate and requires dozens of tries. | |

The Dog Bites Back | |
| Galileo / int_fb3576b2 | comment |
The Dog Bites Back: Literally. A burglar/killer poisoned their victim's dog so that they can come back later to search the house in peace. However, the dog wasn't quite dead yet, and bit them as they were leaving, eventually leading to their arrest. | |

Love Before First Sight | |
| Galileo / int_fe3122a3 | comment |
Love Before First Sight: The apparent mystery of episode six, alongside precognition. The name Remi Morisaki had appeared in Hachi's writings even before the girl with said name was even born, and coincidence is dismissed due to the uncommonness of the name. | |
