Otona ni Narenai Bokura wa - Ch. 19.2 - Observer (2)

[ErikTheRed]

Once you get used to living like tomorrow will never come, it can be really tough to start caring about the consequences again.
They might like eachother now, but will they like eachother when they have to have an actually functional relationship with consequences in the future.
So many flags for what could happen.

We don't know how long they've been together, it could've been decades already. I think a bond like that isn't so easily broken, especially when there's no one else in the entire world that can understand you.

Spoiler: Did they do it?

They didn't

 

[Pewkmon08]

Progress? In my manga? How unexpected. Segs

 

[LordofAlI]

Oh I guess we get SEGGS UNDER THE STARS!!! I hope this doesn't mean either of them will breakdown or anything soon. At least they aren't going on a killing spree

 

[outinthegardener]

Please explain!! I wanna know

So this is a personal theory based on pure headcanon! Since the timeloop traps them as teenagers, it means they can never grow up. And "climbing the stairs to adulthood" is a euphemism for losing your virginity. Taking a deeper look, they are getting grimmer and more jaded the longer the loop goes on, and that's kind of like growing up too. So my theory is that "becoming an adult, aka having sex/maturing into a relationship" is the key to breaking the timeloop.

It's a thin theory based entirely on themes and making connections so I won't die on this hill or anything.

Me, every time a new chapter of this series drops:

 

[hiro02b]

finally happened oh man

 

[SchiLIFESUCKS45]

i am getting feeling similar to goodnight Punpun and boys Abyss from this chapter

 

[Elki]

This is a nice chapter but it feels a bit sudden for our guy to start saying that kind of stuff. I would have liked to get there a bit more naturally, I don't know.

 

[Crisxpy]

LETSGOOO , i hope they had some lovey-dovey segs !!!

 

[Artimid]

And then they wake up as criminals for having stolen a car, police after them, etc. Loop broken! Woo.

 

[PrototypicalLurker]

This feels like it's going to end soon.

 

[RuRoyal]

I didn't see it coming
Author got me well

 

[Eggsburst]

Aww, nice chapter

 

[willis112]

PEAK

 

[Liver]

something bad is about to happen

 

[shoker]

Either one of them is getting out of the loop first, or someone new joins. Maybe they have a kid who grows up while stuck in the loop? Feels like something is about to break... It's gonna hurt isn't it.

Sound is not merely vibrations in a medium; it's the transduction of acoustic energy into electrical signals that then simulate the world in an observer's brain.

Sound is vibrations in a medium, that is the physical definition of sound.
The second part of your sentence is the observation of sound.
Every time we see trees falling we can observe sound. Therefore it is a reasonable extrapolation that the vibrations exist wheter we observe them or not. (And no, muting the mic is not a proof).

The premise is that, if there is no Observer (bugs and birds included), then the subject (sound) doesn't functionally exist.

That premise is never included in the setup of this question.
The statement "If there is no observer there is no sound" cannot be tested, it is not falsifiable.

Sound is vibrations in a medium, that is the physical definition of sound.

Factually incorrect. Merriam-Webster:

1 a: a particular auditory impression
b: the sensation perceived by the sense of hearing
c: mechanical radiant energy that is transmitted by longitudinal pressure waves in a material medium (such as air) and is the objective cause of hearing

Perception is inherent to all primary meanings. Otherwise, it's just acoustic energy.

Consider, a tree falls in the forest and only one deaf man is a witness. It doesn't make a sound.
