Their blend of charisma and lethality makes them a captivating group to watch, especially with each member displaying unique personalities and skills. N...

In Orb: On the Movements of the Earth , Episode 5, the storytelling continues to impress with its unique approach. This anime doesn’t center on characters as much as it does on an overarching theme: the revolutionary idea of heliocentrism and the resilience of those who embrace and pass down forbidden knowledge.

Major Events: The Bridge Collapse and the Transfer of Knowledge In a dramatic twist, the episode has the bridge collapse, symbolizing the fragile foundations on which these revolutionaries build their lives and beliefs. Gras, a character who had embraced the concept of heliocentrism, falls victim to this crumbling infrastructure. This moment serves as a poignant reminder of both his fleeting yet critical role and the risks...
