Ruri no Houseki Episode 5 Discussion

Not sure if it was a mistake on subtitles part or anime itself, but it definitely should be density, not gravity. It doesn't even make sense, because gravity is a force, while density is an actual measuring metric. I guess the mistake can from the fact, that you can actually measure buoyancy by calculating density, volume and gravity.

Beautiful



Too bad not many girls realize how much more attractive intelligence makes them.

Darn looks like we missed a scene of Nagi and Ruri taking off their leggings :(





Nagi in shorts, nice.

This show continues to be the best of the season hands down.

As unrealistic as it is because if they really did find such a rich source of platinum and those other rare elements they'd all be rich LOL

Let me guess, they cut that lewd scene from the river or censored it? Anyway, it seems like they are going smoothly in the manga. I thought the redhead girl would show up earlier in the anime.

@RobertBobert From what i read read, they did not cut the scene unless im wrong?

I love quartz so this episode gets a win in my book. Fun fact, while the Earth is between 4.5 and 4.6 BY old, the oldest rocks we have on record are the 4.0 BY old Acasta gneisses. The oldest minerals are around 4.4 BY; they are detrital zircons from the Jack Hills formation, hosted in 3 BY old conglomerates. Our rocks don't tell us the entire history of the Earth. For that, we need to look towards the stars.

What I've liked most about the anime so far is that Ruri didn't instantly fall in love with geology from the start. Instead, she gradually discovers more about this scientific field as her interest grows, and little by little she immerses herself in that world!

I think that when it's time for her to go to college, Ruri will take Nagi's place and mentor someone in the same way. She's already learning to identify minerals at such a young age, which is a huge advantage if she decides to pursue this field.

Ruri's discovery of something as valuable as platinum was incredible. It is a material that we commonly see in the city, especially since it is used in catalytic converters in modern cars and trucks to reduce emissions. That's also why it's one of the most stolen components: it contains only a small amount, but it's extremely expensive. Replacing one due to theft or wear and tear can cost between $2,000 and $4,000, depending on the car model.

Even so, I think they exaggerated a bit about the amount of platinum they found so quickly. I don't know much about the subject, but it's a bit funny: Byakuya Ishigami died collecting only a small amount of platinum, and here they find it instantly.

The most obvious metal with almost exactly the same density as gold is called Wolfram / Tungsten. It's used for cutting blades in industrial lathes and for tips of armour-piercing ammunition and nordic walk poles and tiny vibro-motors for smartphones, but China also produces a lot of fake gold bars filled with tungsten on the inside.

Anyhow, wonder why big (tits) sis was fooling around with gravity drop water tubes - I mean a university dept should have XRF (X-ray fluorescence) equipment, which determines the material composition right away. Though that would turn this anime into Ruri the Radiation instead of Ruri the Rock. 3,6 Ruri / hour, not great, not terrible...
