Photobucket

Q.E.D. (Q.E.D.証明終了, 2009) is the story of two high school students: Touma, a boy genius who recently transferred from an American M.I.T. school, and Kana, the adventurous daughter of a detective, who team up to solve mysteries.

Sachiyo Nagisa, the actress referred to as "The Queen of Thriller," is being stalked, on top of suffering depression from not being as popular as she once was. Or rather, somebody tampered with her car, and she decides pretending to have a stalker might give her waning career a needed boost. But how to get the police involved? Sachiyo's manager decides a bumbling detective named Sugimichi Kasayama is fitting for the role - he's very passionate about his work, construing everything to be like a thriller drama - perfect for the attention they want. Despite the press that comes about, the actress is furious that Kana is basically stealing her thunder because she stopped the person who was wrecking her car. So they take it a step further, claiming Sachiyo was shoved in the subway station. But just how far is she willing to go with these stunts, and what happens when they start becoming real?
