| I’m at episode 2 and the MC just had an epiphany. Cool moment but the author / director didn’t really try to make the logic / science behind the MC’s realization(s) clear to me. The emotions he felt were conveyed powerfully but the realizations themselves were explained poorly and seemed to be merely there to illustrate the themes, instead of making the audience learn what the main character is learning. Will this change? Will it teach me anything about the historical developments of astronomy? Or is it mostly an emotional ride with great themes and characters? |
| It's mostly about conveying profound philosophy, not the actual science and history. |

| kind of but not really into great detail, its more about the oppression from the church and stuff, not really about the science itself also the ending so bad i would compare it to stuff like shinsekai yori, wonder egg, evangelion etc. really good 23 episodes, awful last 2 episodes |

| This show is simply made of PANTSU Each letter corresponds to the subjects the show deals with, every next letter correlating to the less explored topic: Philosophy: First priority. Show got tons of those conveyed through dialogue. Allegory: The structure of storytelling here with characters and settings as minimal as possible. Naturalism: The perfect middle order between science and religion here. Society does thing to people the most. Theology: God is a big topic here, no joke. Science: It's there. Like... trivia? Universal history: Look, this show barely follows any proper history, but it kinda attempts to unite various common historical concepts. |

It's still unconfirmed and people still argue about if the 23 episodes were real or just fiction in a book |

| No, contrary to what some people have said in this thread, there are a lot of anime which can and do teach in that respect - edutainment anime are a thing which exists. But this isn't an edutainment anime. I would say there are plenty of things one could learn in terms of stimulating thought-provoking ideas and consideration of certain concepts, but that's more pertaining to philosophy in the way you might find in some other historical drama or even many Sci-Fi works (like debates on the nature of identity and consciousness, the way society should be organized, the rights of man or their scope or validity of the human rights concept, primacy of machines and technology, the limits of biology, etc. in many Sci-Fi). There is very little concrete showing or any in-depth dissection of or elaboration on the core hard science at play. |
