You can always take it too far. Imagine getting bothered or even offended by any inaccuracy when they barely even matter.

But if you really care that much then that's fine too.


The problem is not the inaccuracy in itself.
The problem is when they try to explain a supernatural phenomenon with an inaccurate, unrealistic and illogical explanation. Adding another unnecessary layer of inaccuracy to something already unrealistic is frankly annoying. When the series is unrealistic, they should admit it at first and give a proper unrealistic explanation. The attempt at rationalizing the unreal can be bothering for some.


As one of the previous users mentioned, this is just like disliking steins;gate for introducing a time machine(sort of) out of a microwave. This is "science fiction" dude, no one said that it's bound to the current knowledge of what we know in science. Before quantum mechanics was introduced, apparently everyone found it "inaccurate, unrealistic and illogical" that something can be dead and alive at the same time(saying this just as a reference). It's just like although scientists said time travel is impossible, people believe it is.

So, just because YOU don't understand something and find it unrealistic because not everything is known about it, doesn't mean it's true.

And if any anime did depict something "inaccurate", that would be Dr.Stone with Einstein's theory of relativity and his equation. Go and talk about that if u really like scientific reasoning.

I didn't like the microwave time machine in Steins;Gates either so I don't know what you're trying to say here.

I thought I've made myself clear enough, but it seems I didn't. Science fiction is okay, science depiction is okay, supernatural is okay. What's annoying is when something obviously supernatural is explained with unrelated theories that just make the whole attempt at rationalizing the supernatural just a mess of scientific buzzword. Iirc Steins;Gates didn't try to explain how its microwave work with already published theories that doesn't have much things in commom with time travel. Or it did include a fictional explanation with a fake theory. I'm not sure.

I don't know. Imagine if Senku was saying scientific bullshit every episodes. I would be the first to complain. But what Senku was saying was true. It's just exxagerated. What Futaba was saying was both false and innacurate.

Why do you people keep saying "explained", or is it that you didn't pay attention at all? Futaba never explained the phenomenon with science, she used it as an analogy for the "supernatural" stuff that was happening.

It seems to me that you never listened to anything Futaba said just because you thought she's trying to "explain" things. All she said was "facts" that we already know in quantum physics. There's nothing inaccurate about it. Just because she used it as a reference to explain the syndrone doesn't make the "facts" inaccurate.

And if you still think what she said was inaccurate, you can go watch it again and clarify with something loke GOOGLE.

And I would like to know what about relativity was senku right? Mind you the reason I brought senku is because he uses that BS to explain how they survived even after being petrified for so long, which is again, BS.

So that was just an analogy? I guess I misunderstood that part then. Sorry about that. I still didn't like what they did tho.

Agree on the petrification thing. I disliked Dr. Stone at first. I think that might be one of the reason why.

This is a supernatural series. The scientific explanations don't really hold weight here. The series is more about the characters emotions and how they solve the problems in their lives( that is, cure themselves of the symptoms of the "Puberty Syndrome").

I was thinking that a 16-year-old girl did great explaining concepts of modern physics that are usually told at Universities. My understanding was that no one was teaching that to her in high school, so she is using her spare time to read about that. There was never proof that she understood everything from the scientific books she read.
Moreover, Futaba was trying to show interest in the problem only because her friend was involved. She was in the psychological support department rather than at the scientific conference with a prepared speech. Still, she provided him with an idea that might somehow lead him to an empirical solution, even lacking theoretical background...
I will be much more turned off from the show if she will be able to perform impeccable explanations (with all derivations) on the spot :D That will be more unrealistic than "Adolescence Syndrome"!

Quando vi esse episódio eu literalmente pensei que o cara que "inventou" o gato de Schrödinger estava sorrindo no túmulo quando pessoas da era atual estavam levando à sério esse dilema LOL

Mas isso não me afetou pra deixar de assistir a obra

Some people on the other hand might like a fancy explanation or pseudo science and I personally don't see the big deal as long as it's comprehensible within the shows logic. I don't remember details nor do I know much about the actual experiment, so I won't even try to get into it. Just let me ask if things made at least sense within the context of the show?

That aside, I saw that Bunny Girl more as a drama with rom-com flavor, harem and supernatural elements. The latter as gimmick to explore characters. So even if there was something wack in the supernatural department it was insignificant and shouldn't take away much. I treated the explanations allegorical anyway.

You're of course still free to disagree and to dislike the show.
@FMmatron shocker, the pop science redditors treat science like religious people treat their texts "oh my science, it's like allegorical or something." I agree with the OP, the insertion of falsely applied theory curtails an otherwise amazing slice of life romcom. It speaks towards an insecurity of the supernatural that you need to slap together loose bits of science you learned through cultural osmosis. Steins Gate has the same issue where the whole premise is "heh do female scientists bother you: Ö"

This is like dropping Steins;Gate because obviously a microwave cannot create a micro-Kerr black hole capable of sending things back in time. Yes, we know it’s a gigantic leap from scientific theory to plot line. Do we care? No, any show that involves “science-fiction” or “supernatural” is obviously going to require some suspension of disbelief. You don’t watch a show like this or Steins;Gate because you expect a perfect representation of science. You enjoy the creative applications of real theories, whether they hold up or (more likely) not because they open up a world that is not our own to explore. If you want an actually accurate representation of science, then you watch shows like Dr. Stone, which is designed specifically to try to demonstrate practical applications of real science in the real world.

*Edit* This is not to say that you have to like either this show or S;G. I'm just saying that you can't really call them bad shows because of this trait of theirs. To do so is to misrepresent their goals. You can just not like shows with those goals and prefer shows like Dr. Stone.
@Ragerrodent to be fair steins gate is terrible because of the reddit ahh femxle scientist meme. The premise you put forward is false when the fanbases of this anime and sg are based on oneupmanship and false discernment under the veil of pseudointellectualism or philosophy rather than outright waifu wars or whatever. The same can be said for things like re;zero. Oversll there is an inorganic focus on the things that don't make an anime popular in the fanbases of such anime as if they try to rewrite why it blew up and how they try to have their cake and eat it too. No one is putting forward the argument that anime like darling Franxx or Bisque Doll are anime worthy of the top 10 in mal even though they have the waifu element. Bad faith ahh argument.

Seems pretty narrow minded imho

Wow, it's really hilarious how people come up with reasons to drop a show.
And I think no one actually cares about that misinterpretation or misalignment or misappropriation or misapplications of Schrodinger's cat experiment, as long as it's palpable.
However, it's your opinion.
For me, it's well-written for the most part and intriguing overall.
