The dividing by 9 trick blew me away! In general this episode really made me want an abacus, seems like a pretty cool secret skill to have lol

I can't wait for him to be endgame for everyone - harem ending here we come

The translators did a really good job at the translation of them though - I was impressed.

Awesome episode!

You know, I was actually surprised to learn that the abacus was a mostly eastern thing. For some reason I thought they were mainstays in the west too until computers arrived.

Nope, in the west a lot of people used a slide rule.

Wait, I thought slide rules and abacuses were different! I assumed that the former is for measuring stuff and the latter is for arithmetic.

To be fair, I never properly learned how to use either.

You might be thinking of calipers.

Slide rules are a type of analog computer and a little bit more powerful than an abacus, but still in the same vein.

Huh...upon closer inspection, yeah, appears a bit different.
