Ore no Kurasu ni Wakagaetta Moto Yome ga Iru - Ch. 6

[AnotherDuck]

In medical school we were taught that we allergy only gets worse over time.

Is that about all allergies, or just venom allergies?

But the way I've been taught is that while you're still a child, like these characters, even if they're getting close to adult age, it is possible to grow out of it.

Where I live the worst of the insect-related one is probably from ticks, which can have some rather bad side effects, like meat allergy.

On first exposure to an antigen, an allergic reaction may occur, but it'll be mild. However, IgE antibodies will be produced for the first time. Those antibodies bind to mast cells, which primes them for degranulation.

On a second exposure, the antigens will bind to the antibodies, cross-linking them and activating the mast cells. These mast cells will then degranulate, releasing histamine into the bloodstream. This will cause an allergic reaction that is far more severe than the first one.

For this reason, a second allergic reaction can often be fatal even if the first one was not.

tl;dr: the science in this chapter is 100% solid. She may still be stung in the future, but it'll be much less likely to kill her than if she were to be stung a second time.

That was a fight for the ages.

Japan seems to have some belief that getting stung twice is deadly. A character in Bleach has a bee-themed ability that kills you if you get stung in the exact same spot twice, and getting stung a second time in Animal Crossing also knocks you out

I don't think it's just Japan.

I definitely remember adults and old folks saying "if you get stung again you'll die" when I was a kid.

Btw, I don't think that's how it works with wasp's sting. Like you don't get multiple lives vs. the sting, but well, tanks for food.

When it comes to bee stings, you can become allergic to it after your first exposure.

When it comes to bee stings, you can become allergic to it after your first exposure.

I was told that myself when I called Poison Control for my scorpion sting.

I had a red-hot needle in my elbow for two days and a numb left pinky for nearly a week. It would move but was sluggish and I had trouble not repeating "a" while typing.

I'm not sure about losing allergies but it is definitely possible to suddenly become allergic to something that you weren't allergic to before. As a lay person I don't know the mechanism for that but I would hypothesis that perhaps it could occur if you had a simultaneous exposure to the new to-be allergen and a strong existing allergen.

I've lost or become more tolerant to several allergies. A couple when I was a few years old, a few more when I was a teenager, and yet a few more after that. None of them were venom allergies, though. Food and environmental ones. It's why I know a little more than most people about allergies, but not as much as medical professionals. Also got asthma (though mostly gone now) and I'm oddly resistant to several medications and drugs (anaesthetics, alcohol, caffeine, etc.).

While I agree with this about allergic response, and found it weird that people were just saying "it wouldn't be worse" when it totally could be...

The whole "shout at it" part is absurd. Wasps can detect loud vibrations via their legs and antennae (especially though a surface), but responding to someone shouting, through the air? Extremely unlikely, given they lack ears.

So no, I would not call the science in this chapter "100% solid".

That aside...this chapter really seemed so contrived to me. "The person who brought us together was secretly our senpai all along, and now we're working with her, and the very first thing we do is experience a critical moment in her life and save her future"...I mean, I guess if this story isn't going to be very long, that's okay. But it's a heck of a thing to throw into chapter 6.

Also, the way their senpai didn't seem fazed that these two just so happened to be loaded with bug spray and ready to break walls down, and they just so happen to encounter a threatening wasp...it's unbelievably coincidental from an onlooker perspective.

 

[NeonNinja1119]

Okay but have they considered that changing the future would effect a shit ton of things

For example, would Conqueror of the Skies (current timeline) really be Conqueror of the Skies (OG timeline) with them meddling this hard in its production? What if stopping her from getting stung by a wasp results in something worse, like a boat accident?

On the contrary, I think having two massive fans of the series be the editors would allow it to be as close to the original timeline as it possibly can be with the timeline being unavoidably altered in some ways.

Huh. True

 

[Chizan]

I'm only familiar with regular European wasps and those don't sting that easily ime.

If you're careful, you can even handfeed them...

What exactly do you think sound is? They perceive sound vibrations in the air through the fine hairs on their antennae...

 

[Sultan_erin]

Everyone acts like he slayed a demon, lol. I think the author needs to touch some grass.

Not unrealistic, some people do react that badly to seeing a wasp

You need a sophisticated apparatus to do location sensing from sound. It's one thing to say they notice sound; it's another to say they can and would hone on on someone merely shouting, while they are flying and creating overwhelmingly intense vibrations themselves.

I swear to God, if these two won't end up together, something bearly acceptable will happen
(yes the bear joke was necessary)

That pun was a bear necessity.
