[Chi: On the Movements of the Earth] I thought it was going to be a story about how gods and religion aren’t good after finishing it.

Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx19

In reality, it was more of a work that emphasized how important it is to believe in things and have faith, like gods and miracles.

But I liked how it balanced by presenting the part about doubting as much as believing at the end.

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx15

It’s nice to move forward with doubt and return with trust…

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

An anime where my favorite character dies.

3: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s portrayed incredibly positively regarding God, isn’t it?

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>3

The feelings that glow in your heart are everlasting.

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

The sudden appearance of the scholarly side with intensified killing intent is great, isn’t it?

8: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>4

I love the part where you show the extremes of academia and then choose a third way.

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

?

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

Every chapter’s protagonist inevitably dies, you know…

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>6

Mr. Alberto isn’t dead!

7: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

In this era, without order through faith, it would be terrible.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

An era where hope exists only in heaven.

12: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

I thought it seemed quite theatrical or stage-like as I was watching.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>12

So I thought it was understandable that many people were dissatisfied towards the end.

It’s the same with Eva and Ikuani, right?

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Isn’t it nice that we didn’t decide with a coin, that strange bearded old man…

16: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

>>13

I think religion is good, and I like that uncle, but that aside, I believe it’s one of the top-level dangerous ideologies in the story…

19: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>16

That’s why it perished…

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>16

But the foundation of believing in God doesn’t change.

That’s why Duraka is treated as a dangerous figure.

38: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

>>13

Is that a suggestion afterwards? It’s good that everyone is risking their lives for orders, right…

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought it was a story about a virtual world, but I like how it skillfully links to reality.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, Mr. Albert will eventually die too…

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>15

After finishing the anime, I was curious about what happens to Albert-kun afterwards, so I looked it up.

They became a huge success, acting as the secretary to the King of Poland and handling diplomacy with the famous Ivan the Terrible…

As expected of a historical figure.

They are different from the protagonists who did not make it into history.

80: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>78

Are you a great person?

He was a great person.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s sad that the real Rafau-kun couldn’t meet Hubert-san.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

In YouTube’s trivia entertainment videos,

An era of foolish religious persecution that stunted the development of science! It’s become a topic of jokes.

You’re doing quite advanced studies, aren’t you?

24: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx14

>>18

That’s not all, and it’s not that there weren’t those aspects.

It’s not good to have a one-sided viewpoint.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

The world created by God is so much more beautiful!!!11!!1!!

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

The fate of the noble master and disciple who risked their lives for the geocentric theory was beautiful.

22: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Mr. Novak looked very pitiable…

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>22

To be honest, I think it’s not even about the person’s judgment of good and evil; they were just excellent pieces in the story determined by the highest power in that region.

That aside, heresy suppression exists, and even Antoni believed in the story until he was tempted by profit.

23: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

In reality, this world created by God is wonderful, and wanting to know more about the world is one of the motivations for scientific advancement…

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

“Darkness doesn’t mean foolishness; the original meaning is that there are no records left at all!”

Architectural styles are really advancing.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

Religion has been the greatest patron of learning for a long time, and rather than being stagnant, it was more like a master; it’s really confusing to say something so absurd.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

The history of humanity has continued like that all along, so I don’t think there is much possibility of it reaching a standstill anywhere.

29: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

I can tell that Mr. Novak loves children, so it’s sad.

Because Raphael chose to take his own life, it turned on a switch in me that says I have to do something about this dangerous situation…

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>11

Rather, the rise of anti-intellectualism has left everything outside of Japan in ruins.

Well, Japan is just barely managing to hold on.

The Enlightenment is awaited.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a god-tier anime, isn’t it?

39: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

>>32

Please correct your statement.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

I love the coin toss scene in Chapter 3.

The relationship between Captain Schmidt and Duraka, who are not intimate like partners, best friends, or lovers, and have completely opposing ideologies, is interesting as they have become influential enough in each other’s values during their short acquaintance.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

There was quite an aspect in which astronomy developed to explore the heavenly motions in order to understand the perfection of God.

36: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

In the past, it is a historical fact that the Church of C burned the Library of Alexandria and massacred Hypatia as a heresy against knowledge.

The main point of this story is that it wasn’t all there was to it.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

We must hold respect for those who are not remembered by name.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

Ultimately, I became like an icon of the danger of blindly believing in one’s own thoughts in a world where freedom of thought is guaranteed.

The level of danger itself was suggested by the methods of the Heretical Liberation Front.

42: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

?

🤔

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

I often see fan art of Rafau that portrays him as a pleasure killer with a shattered sense of ethics.

It’s just a difference in priority regarding the continuation of life and knowledge.

I shouldn’t be saying that murder itself is good.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

The image in the thread is too confusing…

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

From the medieval to the early modern period, there were quite a few self-proclaimed saints who claimed to have mystical experiences, so the C Church had a hard time deciding whether to incorporate them into orthodoxy or exclude them as heretics…

46: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

I thought it was amazing to express a person who has risked their life in pursuit of knowledge and truth as a “monster.”

In short, those kinds of people are beings who, for better or worse, end up destroying the world.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

Parallel Rafaou’s existence is just noise, but it’s also difficult to interpret because there isn’t enough description to deeply gauge what they are thinking.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it showed what would have happened if Raphael had been in that era.

49: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

The message the work wants to convey is explained quite thoroughly through the characters’ lines, which is appreciated.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s scary that Simut, who isn’t following the heliocentric theory, is quite violent…

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>50

You can feel a strange charisma from their good voice and storytelling skills, but they are an overwhelmingly crazy person even within the liberation front.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

Any number of times

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>53

No matter how many times

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>53

Any number of times

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

Prohibited repeatedly.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>54

To shout.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

Shout!

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

Don’t shout.

59: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Mr. Schmidt is strong and violent, yet he skillfully uses new technologies and never lets his guard down; he’s quite a frightening person, isn’t he?

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

But I can’t help thinking it’s cool.

There is also a danger there.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

Novak’s greatest misfortune was being too competent when it came to work.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

The man who killed his daughter twice.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was surprised to find that the family escaping from the village at the beginning of Chapter 3 was actually Fry-kun’s story, as I had assumed it was Mr. Schmidt’s.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

nando-demo three😭

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ve never thought that deeply about it since it’s often the oppressed side that is featured.

It became a good opportunity to consider the church’s ideology and thinking centered around Novak.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

I used to have the image that science and faith are opposing, but I thought that scholars and believers have similar mentalities.

67: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Since I’ve been watching at 1.5 times speed, it felt really strange when a Sakanaction song happened to play outside.

76: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx18

>>67

Do not let heresy write.

97: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>76

Watching at double speed is a personal choice, but at least I’d like you to listen to and watch the opening and ending at normal speed, even if just once…

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

Although there are disagreements in interpretation, I basically have faith in the world created by God in some form.

69: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

There is certainly a aspect where C religion played a role in maintaining a certain level of order and rules in a medieval society with a terrible level of civility.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

Rather, in this era, most education is done by the church.

It’s an era where there are only a few institutions that can conduct research with money.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a time when it’s difficult to hold back and preserve knowledge without power.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

In fact, most of the world’s academic disciplines all started from something related to religion or belief.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

In this era, being logical makes the geocentric theory more rational than the heliocentric theory.

In order for the heliocentric theory to be correct in calculations, it must reach the discovery of elliptical motion; otherwise, the geocentric theory is mathematically accurate.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

Declaring that you don’t believe in God in this era seems close to declaring that you won’t adhere to the rules.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because they are the kind of people in the basic church who can read.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

Both the affirmative and the negative sides, if taken too far, become monsters.

79: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

I don’t know if it’s true, but since this option is closer according to calculations, let’s just consider it the correct answer for now.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

A story where it became a life-and-death situation because a murderer ran rampant.

It’s deserved that my own daughter died, but…

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>81

Mr. Novak is not doing it because he wants to kill; he’s just doing it because it’s his job.

Well, in the end, even Mr. Novak will fall into becoming a murderer who kills regardless of his job…

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

Monsters are fine, right…?

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

I went to the special exhibition at the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation, but no matter how far I went, the content of the displays was…

It was nothing more than a review of the obligatory education that had already spread widely.

The authentic astrolabe and the visual illustration of Mars’ orbit were good.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s sad that what was passed down from Pototsuki-san to Duraka has been cut off.

90: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>86

Did you connect with Alberto properly!?

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s not just the ones actually executed in reality, but aside from the initial plan where Rafau-kun was just going to be scolded, well, in the process, quite a few ended up getting killed, and the reasons for their executions are elsewhere…

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

The Piast Duke is too flexible.

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was a twist that made me question common sense, so Novak was conveniently used, but there’s no doubt that he and his daughters are remarkably talented, and if the era and location were different, they would probably be extremely successful.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

The ending song of the second season was really good.

In the final act, I realized what that pigeon meant!

I thought it was well done how it connected to Alberto-kun in the final episode.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was really interesting, but I can’t help thinking that the ending part might have been unnecessary.

Rafau-kun is such a dangerous guy.

94: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>93

Originally, someone who discards a smooth-sailing life and the chance to go to heaven to commit suicide by poison is truly a messed-up person.

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

Dark Raphael is the personification of the dark side of science…

96: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I think it would have ended more smoothly without Another Rafael.

I understand that it was a necessary existence as a work themed around doubt and thought.

98: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Novak was killing people for the sake of his faith, but

It probably means that Raffau also kills people for knowledge, and it’s not much different.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

Was it a good work to meet?

Chi. Ha

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>99

Our journey has been nothing but a waste…

100: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It wasn’t beautiful because it wasn’t a work made by God.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s embarrassing to feel like I’m just casually aware that the Earth is spinning because of knowledge, while there are people putting in so much effort to weave it all together; for all I know, it might even be the Sun that’s spinning.

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>101

Calculating dark matter and quantum deficits should be fine.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>101

Chi. Also, since historical facts are based on a vast accumulation of funds, power, and manpower, it feels like history has more depth and is more interesting.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was the same with the previous work about the sprinter.

It’s like a toll for what the characters in the story had been pursuing, believing it to be beautiful and right up to that point.

The author will definitely depict sacrifices that are paid for the noble cause of passion.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

Is that a suggestion, Anonymous?

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought the ending felt very much like something from Shogakukan.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like the Earth is spinning too.
