I honestly was expecting a blood bath when they were using fire bombs but I assume he needs them alive to claim the bounty (but wouldn't just the big fish suffice if that is the case?).
never but it was a very pleasent surpriseI honestly was expecting a blood bath when they were using fire bombs but I assume he needs them alive to claim the bounty (but wouldn't just the big fish suffice if that is the case?).
@MadWeeb Just asking but did you ever imagine this manga would make front page of Mangadex (at #4 currently) or even have over 27K followers? Thank you for the translations.
did they try it with beast people?I've watched Mythbusters, so I know that that little amount of helium would not be able to affect the effects of gravity in any noticeable way.
Extremely light gas, not helium bro. Let the author bullshitting pls.Smol child.

You shouldn't have done the math for this one. The gas might be still a magic based one for the world to not only able reduce the weight of the beast women but also their gear. There's also no resistance in the environment (that small branch didn't break when they stepped on it). Depending on the species and age, wood can take a lot of stresses before breaking and those small branches wouldn't have enough due to small amount of material it has to work with. They might be as light as feather to not affect their environment. There's more to discuss here like air resistance for example, the amount of gas inside the container or assuming that we are following the same outside temperature and pressure and such.Alright, I wanted to do some physics calculations for fun just to see the disparity. Fair warning, there will be quite a few assumptions due to lack of information. For simplicities sake, I’m going to assume most values are that of earth’s.
We can say right if the bat that the gas can’t be hydrogen because it’s far too reactive (especially considering the beastwomen are doing explosive operations), so it’s probably helium or something.
Let’s start with the gravitational force applied to the beastwomen.
Obviously we don’t know exact biological differences, but we do know that the mass of the beastwomen are probably above average compared to that of a human due to their physical robustness. So, we’ll say their mass is 80kg
I’ll be generous and leave out the weight of the clothes and supplies and whatnot.
Force = mass * gravity
Force = 80*9.8 =784 Newtons
Now that we have the downward force, we need to find the buoyant force from the helium bag.
The formula for buoyant force is:
F_b = fluid density * volume displaced * gravity
According to nasa, the density of air is 1.293 kg per meter cubed.
We’ll be insanely generous and say that the bag holds around 1000 liters, which is 1 meter cubed. (For scale, that’s like 8 of those stereotypical moving boxes you might see in movies or whatever)
So, the buoyant force is:
F_b = 1.293 * 1 * 9.8 = 12.67 Newtons
So, the bag makes them roughly 1.6% lighter WITHOUT accounting for any equipment.
It’s been a while since I’ve done physics stuff, so if you spot any errors please correct me.
But see, that's what's so problematic. If magic solves it, why bring the concept of this "ultralight gas" at all?You shouldn't have done the math for this one.

TLDR: there's too many variables to account for even if we only go for the buoyancy equation. You shouldn't done the math for this one. Magic can easily solve it.
Because the author didn't think too much on the strapping a balloon around your body to make you extremely light idea.But see, that's what's so problematic. If magic solves it, why bring the concept of this "ultralight gas" at all?
