Chapter 213 Trivia (Part 1)

I guess things were going too well for too long..?

Gen's drawing of Senku here was probably inspired by very early chapter cover images. I don't know why else he'd be holding an exploding container.

We've now got three interpretations of Whyman: the generic one, Luna's, and now Gen's.

I like how Gen's has arms and legs coming out of the skull!

Finally! The Kingdom of Science can watch Dr. Stone together!

As long as someone animates it…

Kenjiro Takayanagi of Shizuoka University is considered one of the main pioneers of television, succeeding in displaying the character イ (i) on his Braun tube display in Dec 1926. Over the next few years, he improved the image allowing more detailed images such as human faces.

By 1939, Japan's first television station began broadcasting from NHK (Japan Broadcasting Corporation). After the war, Takayanagi Sensei's work was used as a foundation for other televisions and related industries around the world.

If everyone thought working on a second cell phone after they'd spent months making one was bad, they're not ready to hear about what they'll need to make for television broadcasts. (Senku also never changes...)

I didn't realize how big their other boat was. I guess things made in the USA really are bigger?

The Perseus not being the biggest ship anymore makes me a little sad :(

SAL 9000 is a reference to HAL 9000, the AI antagonist from Space Odyssey. It stands for "Heuristically programmed ALgorithmic computer", so in this case it might be "Senku programmed" or even "Sai programmed"!

The "NES" (actually the Famicom again, both in the drawing and Sai's comment in the Japanese version) and SAL 9000 don't have the exact same specifications:

SAL 9000 is specialized for math operations and thus has a longer word length (16 bits vs 8) which allows more significant figures in the numbers. They've also got more RAM (SAL has 16 kB while the NES has 2).

The downside is that because they used parametrons, their clock speed (how fast they can do calculations) is slower than if they'd used transistors.

The large amount of ROM they've also got could imply that they have several built-in programs. Xeno's work, perhaps?

CRT screens only reach a maximum diagonal length of around 40 inches (~101 cm), as a larger screen needs a larger tube, and the thickness of the glass increases with size to handle the vacuum without shattering making it very unwieldy with the added weight and thus not worth manufacturing for sale.

Senku's here is obviously much, much bigger. Possibly even world record; the biggest CRT screens made were 61 inches (~152 cm) on the diagonal.

SAL 9000 has both air and water cooling, probably used depending on what's better for individual parts. Normally you only need one or the other.

It'd be good if they could get the carbonated water maker in there and ferment some alcohol faster too using the computer's heat…

SAL 9000 also has 3 phase power like modern power transmission. They're AC power sources, phase shifted by 120° so that at any point in time, their sum is 0. The advantage to this is that you don't need return lines for the current, so you can use half as many cables.

The games shown are inspired by Tetris (featuring Ishigami Village and Roppongi!), Pacman, a combination game of Gyruss and Tempest, then another combination game of Galaga and Asteroids.

The transmission towers can only be headed towards the dam, so we have an approximate direction for where that is! There's a few rivers nearby in modern Tokyo, but over 3,700 years they've probably changed a lot.

Cobwebs and Strange

Cobwebs and Strange Mondays 12pm-3pm EST bombshellradio.com “The philosopher Albert Schweitzer concluded: ”There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats.” In my house there are three cats and a lot of music.” So says Ronnie Carnwath, presenter of Cobwebs And Strange, Tuesdays at 4pm UK time. He saw the title Cobwebs And Strange on an LP by The Who and vowed that one day he would use it as the title of a show. It sums up the thinking behind the show – half forgotten oldies and oddities from his own personal collection and beyond, rubbing shoulders with the latest independent releases. He believes radio should be entertaining, informative, and educational, and he makes all his own jingles and sources the little links you hear between songs from his favourite TV shows and movies. He likes to keep the show fresh by throwing in the odd curveball – where else would you expect to hear Shirley Bassey next to Throbbing Gristle? Ronnie has been collecting records for over forty years, and every day he discovers some new gem he was hitherto unaware of, and that’s what keeps it exciting. “People send me music all the time,” he states. “The only criterion I employ is: “Do I like it?” If the answer is yes, it goes in the show.” He started collecting at the age of eleven, when he purchased “Kings Of The Wild Frontier” by Adam & The Ants whilst on a school trip to London. In his teens he discovered the joys of finding an obscure 45 in a dusty old forgotten box in the back of a second-hand store, and would regularly spend all his pocket money on records and music magazines, which he would devour from cover to cover. He would lie awake in bed at night, with a tiny transistor to his ear, listening to the John Peel show on the BBC. The sense of achievement when he manages to find something he’d heard on the veteran presenter’s programme never gets old. He firmly believes that every artist has one good song – a theory which he fully intends to explore. “I mean, it’s entirely possible that Nickelback have one good song – but I’ve yet to hear it…”,  he says, half-jokingly. Ronnie thinks the term "DJ" (or disc-jockey") is too much of a throwback to the days of radio host as showbiz personality. “I present information and let the audience draw their own conclusions.” All his previous shows are archived at cobwebsandstrange.weebly.com, and these get updated every week, each show getting its own unique artwork. In addition to this, he has a Spotify playlist, which he updates weekly, and which now boasts in excess of 12,000 songs, with a playing time running to over 745 hours He also makes music of his own occasionally, having released four CDs to date – three with Lulubelle III and one with La Bella Luna. He hopes to find a way to contain the carpal tunnel syndrome which prevents him from playing guitar or typing for more than a few minutes at a time. He and his long-suffering wife Martha live in Derry, Northern Ireland with their three cats Zorro, Dalí and Gizmo. Ronnie Carnwath Read the full article

I've always wanted to write a Transistor/Fresh Precure crossover but never got around to it for lots of reason. However, today I was rotating the idea around in my mind again and I realized there is an absolutely 1 incredibly simple way to pull this off:

Just Give Setsuna The Dog

Pros:

Can set it post canon to both Fresh and Transistor, but without having to actually deal with the implications of post-canon Transistor directly

No complicated set up required--just say parallel world nonsense created a Backdoor.

Premise can be explored in a short wordcount, or expanded because it's literally just "Setsuna finds a robot/digital dog"

Luna is the best Fetch/process dog and she's adorable

Cons:

I still have to write this myself orz

[svnnnne]

nonsense op this is delicious send them over anytime - i encourage whole heartedly *chef kissy back*

i also have more if you wish to chew over it haha

otherwise i will wait for whatever your drawing demons will offer!!!

how can i forget about luna!!!!! as long as mona gets to go to the country with everyone this is accepted to me (i will accept the sadder hc of mine where it is the sakura family's beloved cat who just got processed)

sumire as sybil is like such a long windy process for me to write out because in my feelings i think she fits pretty well. but logically? uh... brain broken!!! so she's getting her own section

i should also think about who's in the camerata haha

i don't know if i can handle sophia being processed wah;;; she's my baby girl too!!!

thank you for enjoying the yusuke lore!!! i also think the day yusuke hears "into the crystalline blue" he has to run after ren immediately to tell him how he felt. ren probably thought it was some intense fan confession but yusuke starts to talk about how something feels off about cloudbank and they start talking because of that. i also think yusuke probably would like to paint the sky for ren one day as thanks (but he never will because um transistor events aaa i made myself sad)

i think iwai building the transistor would be crazy cool though i remember vaguely like royce literally finding the transistor in that slot at the cradle (?) though i could be remembering wrong. if he was integrated early though because he stumbled on some knowledge early... im sad!!!!

hc accepted on us destroying makoto's bike. i don't know if you remember but there is another bike that makes it near the end of the game. i think that should also be makoto's bike. goro quips he's surprised it survived lmao

also in your tags sjkdgsdkjg "it's not the same when i can't hear you argue with me"???? i raise these canon lines below: Unknown: That's my star. Could always handle yourself. Just fine... I love you so much, Red. You know that, right? It's true. It's true...it's true. (i need to lie down) Unknown: You know I...never thought much of Highrise. Far from the water. Then I found out...you lived here. (i am decomposing as we speak-) Unknown: They got Junction Jan's? Where are we going to get our flatbread now? ... This is a tragedy. (leblanc noo-) Red (terminal): None of this is coming through anymore is it... Unknown: I think you're right. Red (terminal): Though you still hear me don't you... Unknown: Of course. Of course I do. Red (terminal): You're all I have. Unknown: Red... Red (terminal): There has to be... Red (terminal): There has to be a way to get you out of there. Unknown: We'll figure it out when we get there. Red (terminal): Yes we will. (im deceased) the unused voicelines for red for the ending? (snarky bfs together)

have you also considered red when humming and not in battle always hugs the transistor? very lovingly? as if dancing? (aaa)

Sumire as Sybil

initial thoughts for me placing sumire as sybil was the fact that she was dealing with her sister (which is why i also had that initial convoluted plot device of a sumi yoshizawa lmao). kasumi may have joined the camerata because she wanted to make her mark on the city of cloudbank through her events but as we know, everything in cloudbank is driven by polls. is it even worth it to be the best event planner when polls dictate everything? events after events... and for what? (a very loose interpretation of her goals to be top gymnast at the olympics). the idea of her heading to the country prematurely is very intriguing though!! perhaps she knew... too much.

sumire on the other hand? we're adding the same goal here - to be the best event planner - plus the feelings she has towards being her sister's shadow? if her sister disappeared and she was offered to take her sister's spot...hm... such complex feelings!!!!

why she falls in love with ren and his music is because i truly believe red in-game is depressed or at least struggling with how she sees the world and how her music is received by the people. i said before it's always in response to events happening in cloudbank but moreso in the way that she actually has controversial opinions about cloudbank lmao - people get outraged over her songs as much as people love them - hell she even has a bodyguard for these reasons, had to take some time off, and i find she censors a lot of her more controversial thoughts when she types on the terminals honestly. i like to think even my own spin with "into the crystalline blue" was ren staring at that same sky yusuke painted for ann and somehow managed to pick up some dark feelings associated with it (since ann's request is for a very sad reason). i think somehow sumire (and many others) find those kinds of dark feelings in red's songs comforting and that's what makes then really attractive... hence why the infatuation starts with the music.

sumire probably gets a chance to plan for one of ren's concerts and i can only best assume this is where she falls in love with him...until goro enters the picture. and it all falls apart from there because there's no ren to talk out her feelings like in the actual p5 game without heartbreak.

in transistor it does seem like sybil aims to save red despite giving her as a target. by having unknown take the fall, she can gain red's favour and keep her alive (by having her join them... though i think she would be very mad at this prospect). i think sumire could have thought: even if he doesn't return my affections, if i can keep ren alive through this method, surely he would join us due to our very close feelings on how we feel about cloudbank?

anyway, i always think of this line by unknown after we defeat sybil in game unknown: sybil...after our run in... i don't think she ever left i know sybil is apart of the camerata but i find it very hard to place her as an antagonist (in the evil sense) and just a person who unfortunately never had their feelings returned. she may had been contributing to the camerata as their ears and eyes in search for targets (her backdoor space sure must had been handy haha) but somehow i get the feeling she doesn't truly know about the transistor's true capabilities like royce and grant do (iffy on asher). could be wrong though haha - need to doublecheck!

anyway i also think of sybil being saved by red despite the song "in circles" playing during her boss fight. even when red's song states i won't save you (won't means being capable but not doing so)... sybil actually gets a process rate of 0%!!! i find that... oddly beautiful... in a way. she was saved... even if she could only be with red through the transistor. together forever? (it's fine we will all be happy in the country sobs)

I saw your transistor au and I'm in love with it 😍 What abilities do you think the thieves would have? Would they be the same as the game or something else? 👀

ehe thank you im glad you enjoy my scribbles about it (i will draw more soon bc brainworms)

for the q - honestly i have not thought that far if we are talking about functions ٩( ᐛ )و

im assuming anyone who has played the game can probably match who i based the thieves on but it only goes so far as who they are in cloudbank and how they contribute to the city as citizens but very loosely. it’s more fun to me to play sandbox pre-transistor events but i digress!!

thinking about it now, im not sure if i want their abilities to stick too closely to the game? for example, i based yusuke off farrah yon dale - because the concept of a skypainter who could not paint anymore is very delicious - but her function switch() doesn’t feel like yusuke? compared to say ryuji where i took some inspo from olmarq and wave tennegan but respectively the function load() and cull() could potentially work for him. open to being convinced though if you have any thoughts ✨
