Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })An anime that appeared as part of NHK's Fall 2011 Anime lineup. Produced by Sunrise, it premiered on October 2, 2011. It's directed by Junichi Sato, written by "Hajime Yatate" and while it has average animation quality (greatly improved in the second season), the series employs an all-star voice cast.Kaito, a puzzle-loving high school freshman, is drawn into the strange world of "Phi Brain". He gets a strange device that sends him puzzles and, on occasion, directions to a certain location. Taking this as a challenge, he and his friend, Nonoha, decide to follow their directions, only to be forced to solve puzzles that have a dangerous touch of Death Trap to them. These are the "Philosopher's Puzzles"; dangerous puzzles that, if left unsolved, will cause some sort of disaster. Not only that, but there is a mysterious organization known as POG that's activating these puzzles and are specifically targeting Kaito in order to force him to solve them.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })In season two, Kaito and friends are finally able to enjoy a period of normalcy, but this peace is soon shattered by the appearance of the Orpheus Order. Whilst their leader claims to have been betrayed by Kaito in the past, Kaito and friends' actions in the previous season have earned their everlasting enmity. The Orpheus Order ups the ante with manmade Death Trap puzzles and display that they are more than willing to pull innocent bystanders into the fray if it means furthering their goals.In season three, Kaito attempts to restore the memories of his mentor, Jin, after the events from season one. However, he and his friends encountered a mysterious girl named Raetsel, who happens to be someone that Jin knew in the past. It turns out that she and another man named, Enigma, want to fulfill Jin's wish which is to destroy all puzzles.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })Has a character sheet in the works. | |

Goggles Do Nothing | |
| Phi Brain: Puzzle of God / int_12de0775 | comment |
Sunglasses Do Nothing: Kaito wears a pair of sunglasses on his head that he never seems to use (except for a moment in the opening when he's taking them off). He uses them in the fourth episode of the Second Season, due to the antagonist group standing with floodlights behind them, Jikukawa and co are forced to shield their eyes because of how bright it is. He is seen wearing them as Stoic Spectacles in a what-if world where he chose not to regain love for puzzles. Raetsel breaks him out of it, though. | |

Heroic BSoD | |
| Phi Brain: Puzzle of God / int_1439161f | comment |
Heroic B.S.O.D.: Kaito suffers one after being confronted with a replica of the puzzle that killed his parents. Because of the way the armband of Orpheus works, this has the potential to escalate into a full-blown Heroic R.R.O.D. if he isn't careful. Cubic gets one after nearly getting killed by a puzzle Rook made when he was five. | |

With Great Power Comes Great Insanity | |
| Phi Brain: Puzzle of God / int_208c4494 | comment |
With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: whoever gets the puzzle of God always seems to result in this. So far Phytagoras, Rook, and Kaito are shown in the Bad Future where they got a hold of the scrolls and destroy the world. Phytagoras succeeded in getting the God scrolls in the past. But the power drove him mad and he died as a result. In Season 2, the Orpheus Order use items of Orpheus to induce More Than Mind Control on otherwise ordinary students that turn them into serious challengers to pit against Kaito and his friends. Season 3 we gain light on what exactly happened during the Jin/Pythagoras challenge. Pythagoras didn't go mad and die because of the power of the Writings of God, likewise the Bad Future constantly being shown weren't because of obtaining said scroll. Because there IS NO Writing of God. It was just bait. Orpheus created the Puzzle of God to gain a Phi Brain vessel for his mind and exceed the Gods. Obviously Pythagoras wasn't amused by said information. The Bad Future we see would be caused by Orpheus challenging the gods and the aftermath would be the death of all mankind. | |

Lethal Chef | |
| Phi Brain: Puzzle of God / int_35ae6a23 | comment |
Lethal Chef: What Kaito thinks of Nonoha's cooking. Everyone else thinks the food she cooks tastes good. At the end of episode 18 Gammon's little sister proclaims her own cooking to be the weapon of mass destruction. Nonoha later intentionally tries to invoke this trope in episode 19 because of how Kaito doesn't like her usual cooking. Despite a very ominous appearance and releasing a purple aura, they still taste good. | |

Punny Name | |
| Phi Brain: Puzzle of God / int_6d7026fa | comment |
Punny Name: most of the main characters. Daimon Kaito is a pun on "mondai kaitou" ("problem/solution" in Japanese). Nonoha's name is a pun on the game Towers of Hanoi ("hanoi no tou" in Japanese which is an anagram of "Itou Nonoha") — lampshaded. Gammon Sakanoue's name comes from Backgammon. "Saka" is spelled with kanji meaning "back". Cubic Galois is named after Rubik's Cube and Évariste Galois. Ana Gram - obvious. Jikukawa Souji's name can be contracted into Jikusou (a corruption of jigsaw in Japanese).

Screw the Rules, I Make Them!: Herbert Muller is given a lot of leeway regarding his rather questionable methods, due to his high rank in the P.O.G. organization. However, he does face repercussions when he's caught setting up remote-controlled grenades into the puzzle for no reason other than to kill the Solver, combined with the fact that Rook got himself promoted to a higher rank than his, allowing him to put Muller in his place. | |

And even when a death trap is used, Kaito is saved from certain doom thanks to Nonoha and Ana riding up with some animals Ana had befriended. Episodes 10 & 11 of the second season are back-to-back breather episodes, combined with a Beach Episode as Elena invites them to relax at an island resort in the aftermath of the multi-episode Rink Slider arc. | |

Bratty Half-Pint: Cubic, as lampshaded in one of the previews. But he's different from most other children who fall under this trope in that he immediately acknowledges Kaito's genius. Cubic qualifies by trying to force Kaito to stop wasting his genius on puzzles and to work for him, even foolishly laughing at a POG member, thinking that his puzzle was a game. | |

| Phi Brain: Puzzle of God / int_895ec17 | comment |
Only in It for the Money: Gammon's reason for butting into every Kenja Puzzle he can is for a shot at winning the treasures awarded to the solver. Offhand mention by his little sister that he gets all the money for them to survive may explain why In Season 2 we found out that Gammon has another source of income (which makes sense as obviously solving Kenja Puzzles aren't a stable source of income...or a safe one at that). He's actually a world renowned Puzzle Giver when it comes to magazines and such, but he used an alias to maintain a normal life for his sister. It becomes a plot point when his created puzzles start sucking hard due to his anger towards the Orpheus Order. | |

Off-Model: Quite often, with characters' faces seemingly melting off their heads at some angles, as well as frequent QUALITY non-close-up character shots. You could tell that the animators just weren't very comfortable drawing in such an atypical sort of anime art style from the way they'd sneak in a more standardized style between frames when they thought they could get away with it.

No MacGuffin, No Winner | |
| Phi Brain: Puzzle of God / int_de02afbc | comment |
No MacGuffin, No Winner: The God Scrolls are destroyed at the end of the first season. But it's technically a win since it's continued existence would only lead to the world ending one day. We find out in Season 3 There is NO Writing of God. Orpheus made up the story as bait so people would have a reason to challenge the Puzzle of God and thus become his next vessel. Of course the endgame is the same as Orpheus plans on challenging the Gods and thus the End of the World as We Know It | |

Bad Future | |
| Phi Brain: Puzzle of God / int_deb39de3 | comment |
Season 3 we gain light on what exactly happened during the Jin/Pythagoras challenge. Pythagoras didn't go mad and die because of the power of the Writings of God, likewise the Bad Future constantly being shown weren't because of obtaining said scroll. Because there IS NO Writing of God. It was just bait. Orpheus created the Puzzle of God to gain a Phi Brain vessel for his mind and exceed the Gods. Obviously Pythagoras wasn't amused by said information. The Bad Future we see would be caused by Orpheus challenging the gods and the aftermath would be the death of all mankind. | |

| Phi Brain: Puzzle of God / int_eb81c601 | comment |
Big Damn Heroes: Parodied in episode 15. Gammon and Cubic appear as the former screams PUZZLE TIME HAS STARTED!! They're ready to solve the puzzle and save the day. Only Ana already did so without any hamminess whatsoever. On his part, at least - a POG Giver was acting very over the top in a pointless attempt to intimidate Ana. Ana was way too into Cloud Cuckoo Lander mode to act differently than normal. | |

Bigger Bad: Count Phytagoras - mentioned several times and later stated by Baron to be the one who twisted POG into what it is now, yet hasn't make an apperance, letting the role of the Big Bad to Rook In episode 22, it is revealed that the Count has been dead before the series started, and Rook is the one manipulating P.O.G ever since his death The Orpheus Order's leader Klondike. Like the first season, Freecell reprises his role as Big Bad by curbstomping Klondike In Season 3 we find out the Big Bad for the entire series. Orpheus himself. | |

Brick Joke: During the Beach Episode, Nonoha's many club activities prevent her from going at the same time as the others, but Kaitou makes an offhanded joke that she's so fired up that she'll get there even if she has to swim. Come the end of the episode, and it turns out that's exactly what she did, taking SIX HOURS to get there. | |
