Episode 7 synopsis:
Badeni and Oczy contact Yolenta, who has solved a difficult problem about astronomy. Yolenta denies that she wrote the answer, but Badeni sees through her cleverness. When Badeni asks her to collaborate on the “heliocentric theory,” Yolenta wavers. The reason for her hesitation is not only the fact that the theory is prohibited by ideology, but also the presence of Count Piast, the director of the Institute of Astronomy and an authority on astronomy.

Yolenta (VA: Saya Hitomi) was introduced in this week’s episode to help Badeni and Oczy! Now, after figuring out the complicated answers to Badeni’s post in the town square, Yolenta grabs hold of the opportunity to advance her knowledge. But with her father being Novak, the series is gearing towards something exciting!

Manga Details

Orb: On the Movements of the Earth is a historical mystery manga written and illustrated by Uoto. The seinen magazine Weekly Big Comic Spirits began publishing the series in September 2020 until it ended in April 2022. Winning multiple awards, including the 26th Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize and “Best Comic” at the 54th Seiun Award, the manga also won the Mandou Kobayashi Manga Grand Prix back in 2021.

Seven Seas Entertainment licenses the series in English and has released 2-in-1 omnibus volumes, all of which are currently published. The publisher describes the series as:
In fifteenth-century Europe, heretics are being burned at the stake. Rafal, a brilliant young man, is expected to enter university at an early age and study the era’s most important field, theology. But Rafal values reason above all else, which leads him both to the shocking conclusion that the Earth orbits the Sun, and into the hands of the Inquisition! A decade later, two members of the Watch Guild, the dour young Oczy and the cynical Gras, find a hidden stone chest that details the secrets of the universe Rafal left behind. Dare they try to change their own stars by selling the heretical texts, or would that only lead to the stake and the fire?
