Du mouvement de la Terre

I agree that it is not historically correct, but honestly i don't give a damn, it made me cry in the first three episodes.

I love the idea of knowledge fighting against reason in such a romantic way, furthermore it is not clearly said that it wants to represent Copernico history, so i don't understand why people are complaining about it.

Copernico and Heliocentrism were surely of inspiration for the story, but what matters at the end is the quality and the message of the story, not if it is "historically correct".

I liked it and i would watch it again.

I love the jump of times that they did, astonishing surprise.

Ever since I saw the first PV for Orb: On the Movements of the Earth, I've been cautiously optimistic that this could be a sleeper hit of the Fall season. Animated by Madhouse (HunterxHunter, Frieren), Orb is dazzling to behold. The night skies and warm colors are captivating, and the characters' motivations and actions are clear, convincing, and wonderfully fleshed out. The music by Kensuke Ushio adds a layer to the show that helps the emotions hit harder and the scenery pop!

As a 25 episode anime, I'm hopeful we will get a full adaptation of this award winning manga! If you are interested in character-driven, emotionally hard-hitting anime like Vinland Saga or Frieren, give Orb a try and enjoy the ride!

As a historical fiction, this is a fairly accurate depiction of how the church controlled the narrative through violence.

All the supposed witches who were burned and drowned, all the scientists who were executed are not forgotten. This is a tribute to those who gave up their life gladly so that we can pursue the truth.

Even though it is fiction, the situation depicted here is fairly accurate for majority who pursued science in the face of persecussion by the church. The fact that the church had an "Index of Forbidden Books", a changing list of publications deemed heretical or contrary to morality, makes it harder for the audience to take this as a fiction. The anime did a great job depicting that time period.

First of all, as the original author has already stated, this is a complete work of fiction. It may be unpleasant to see religion portrayed as evil, but if you watch to the end, you will understand that this is not actually the case , and also reminded me of the wonderfulness of religion. In an interview, the author said that he wanted to depict "intelligence and violence." violence does not necessarily mean physical violence like that of the Inquisition. Just as one sacrifices people for one's research, intelligence and violence are not polar opposites. It is very interesting that this story also includes modern economic thought from the 15th century onwards. In addition, the author said that he wrote the story on the theme of "A life where you have something to risk your life for is a happy one." I send my love to this honest author, who is only 26 years old. It's not flashy action or a fun romantic comedy, but I highly recommend it.

"LFirst off, this is an animated series slated to run for 25 episodes. While I rely on captions for the English translation, it doesn't detract from the experience at all. The show is fiction, but its themes resonate with the early years of the church, set in what feels like the Dark Ages-a time when science and math clashed with religious dogma.

The storytelling can feel a bit scattered at times, but that doesn't lessen the intrigue. As of now, eight more episodes are set to release weekly, and I look forward to them eagerly. Saturday mornings have become my time to watch the latest episode, and it's a ritual I genuinely cherish.

The series evokes deep, reflective emotions-often tinged with sadness, but in a way that feels meaningful rather than bleak. I truly enjoy it and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone. That said, while it's animated, this is not a show for young children. It's mature, thought-provoking, and captivating.
