    #33 Best Anime about Astronomy EVER?! Orb: On the Movements of the Earth

    In this episode we talk about our orb-session with Orb: On the Movements of the Earth, which has been one of our favorite anime series so far.  How does an anime about the development of heliocentrism manage to be as exciting as Game of Thrones?  What the hel-iocentrism is “heliocentrism,” anyway? To what extent exactly is the lingering “great man theory” of science responsible for the blind spots in Cisco’s history of science research?  Find out the answers to some of these questions in this episode! 02:02 What is “Orb: On the Movements of the Earth” about?  05:35  Fact or Fiction? The Historical Context of Heliocentrism and the Inquisition 10:04 Chi vs. Orb: Japanese and English Title Differences 13:45 The Roman Catholic Church’s Influence in the 1500-1600s and being a female researcher in the 1500s (wherein Cisco has not done enough research about Maria Cunitz) 22:25 This season’s best anime theme songs: “Kaiju” by Sakanaction & “Aporia” by Yorushika 30:07 The Voice Actors from “The Elusive Samurai” Reunited!  33:40 Word of the day - Chi (Chidousetsu and Tendousetsu) 地動説　天動説 ...........................................................................................
