The manga is a sci-fi action comedy in which a young genius scientist solves crimes together with three girls with supernatural powers.

Basically, it features slapstick comedy elements, while serious themes such as the anguish and inner conflict of those with extraordinary abilities, the friction and bond between espers and normals, and a future in which doom is predicted, are at the core of the series.
