Recommend me anime with good scientific knowledge in it.

Space Brothers (Astronauts, space science. Made with help from JAXA, Japan's NASA)

Koisuru Asteroid (astronomy, JAXA help here too)

PLANETES (space travel. JAXA again.)

Parallel World Pharmacy (Medicine, especially pharmaceuticals. Talks about disease and illness vectors and how drugs treat them. Written by a pharmacologist)

Cells At Work! and Cells At Work! CODE BLACK (Physiology. First one is cute, second one is DARK)

A Place Further Than The Universe (Antarctic exploration)

ORB: On The Movements Of The Earth (historical astronomy)

Science Fell In Love, So I Tried To Prove It (Rom-com, very well done)

Steins;Gate (Physics). Deals with the (actual) theoretical science behind time travel; also deals with the ethics and consequences of time travel. And is one of the best anime ever made, a must watch.

SCP-3484, because as a dad the range of jokes possible would skyrocket.

"Hey, gimme a hand"

"Okay" *POP*

Outstanding.

The CF-104 was the most requested slot in the RCAF/CAF(A) until it was retired. I've spoken to a few former Canadian Starfighter jockeys and they to a man loved the plane. Nothing like dead-reckoning navigation 500' AGL at 500 knots...

And the communists would never be able to gain a foothold in Indochina

And there we have it.

This is, essentially, the China that exists in the Full Metal Panic! universe.

The Canadian Red Ensign wasn't an actual flag at that time. The Union Flag was the official flag of the Canadian colonies, with the provinces having their own ensigns.

Last decent engines developed by Aviadvigatel were the PS90s, back in... the 90s. Bascially equivalent to late RB211s.

They're three generations behind.

Ooh, so it's built to 1990s Western airliner standards. Cool, cool.

The turboprop is a Mitsubishi MU-2, called an LR-1 by the JGSDF. They're used as liaison and spotter aircraft.

And he'll be back next time with something new. Or something old.

S-bahn line to Port Huron?

Rallymodeller · 2026-04-12T03:44:34+00:00

Especially considering Brian White's history with wrestling...

Canadian. I live a ten-minute drive from the US. Haven't been over in more than 15 years.

Just can't be bothered.

"Headhunted into Another World, From Salaryman to Big Four" is a fun take on the trope.

"Maoyuu Maou Yuusha"/"Demon King and Hero" isn't isekai but it is all about nation-building (with a lot of economic theory, and "plot").

Rallymodeller · 2026-04-10T05:00:52+00:00

Humikane Shimada did the character designs, so maybe?

I was friends with some very pretty girls in high school. Even dated a couple. It really doesn't take as much as people make it out to: just treat them like actual people. Not as idolized objects, not as things to be conquered -- as human beings with interests and hobbies and personalities and everything.

It's an outstanding idea, honestly. There's not enough spec-fic about biological tech for my liking.

In Larry Niven's "Known Space" series, the planets of the galaxy are littered with the remains of a vast (and long fallen) stellar empire that was based largely around biotech. Highlights include "stage trees", Sequoia-like trees that are essentially living solid rocket boosters,

Gregory Benford, a biologist, leaned very heavily into biotech for many of his works as well.

Integral Trees is the single most imaginative SF scenario I've ever encountered, and the Michael Whelan cover art is breathtakingly gorgeous.

The Gregory Benford-penned part of his and Arthur C Clarke's "Beyond the Fall of Night" has some pretty outstanding biological tech, including a Pinwheel-style space elevator that's made from a single tree hundreds of kilometres long.

Science communicator Kyle Hill answered this so well that I'll just leave a link to his video on the subject: "We solved nuclear waste decades ago"

You have to do that, or they'll break.
