While I'm happy this manga takes the effort to portray falsification in practice, I wonder if it would have been better to explain in greater detail what it is and why we need to do it in any proper scientific process.

I really love this manga you can tell how much passion the author has for geology, Imari-sa is the cutest. Thanks for the chapter

Iron and its compounds are not the only things drawn to magnets, so a little bit of qualification would be good here.

A bit more discussion of epistemology would be good in many stories beyond those about science. For example, in stories of crime fiction, a character often mistakes a nearly worthless bit of conforming fact as strong evidence, but the general deficiency is not explained.

I have to imagine that Ruri regales her classmates with her geological stories discoveries.

It could also mean that the pointy bit has only recently been exposed

I understand Ruri's pain by analysing everything through a lens. That's why you need to take breaks now and then to rest your eyes.

Imari is adorable.
