However, Kyubey doesn't exhibit any emotion because he can't. As an incubator, his only role is to preserve the entropy of the universe. Right and wrong don't figure into his calculations.

He had been manipulating those girls for his own gain, gaining the means necessary to prevent the collapse of the universe due to entropy. What is more, Kyubey didn't even grasp the emotional harm ...

Entropy, introduced by Rudolf Clausius in 1865, is a way to quantify the amount of energy dispersion within a system. It reflects how energy, whether thermal or chemical, becomes more scattered ...

Middle schoolers Madoka and Sayaka get recruited by an adorable critter named Kyubey to become magical girls. At first, everything seems upbeat and exciting as they are introduced to the world of ...

When it comes to cold, calculated tricksters in anime, Kyubey takes manipulation to an interstellar scale. This deceptively cute creature entices young girls into making contracts without fully ...

Architecture, engineering, mathematics and time reveal themselves here as human-centered tools—conceptual structures invented to parse a reality shaped not by order, but by entropy. This is a ...

In late February, at an opening bash so extravagant Bacchus himself could have hardly done better, close to 900 of Sydney’s great and good (the likes of fashion designers Pip Edwards and Simone ...

At the heart of this “arrow of time” is entropy, a measure of how many ways the tiny parts of a system — molecules, atoms, or bits of information — can be arranged while looking the same to us.

Entropy is an intrinsic property of matter and its constituents (atoms and molecules) and it has several definitions and meanings. It was first postulated by German physicist Rudolf Clausius in ...

The paper introduces an end-to-end framework that integrates: a) entropy minimization, b) output feature space alignment and c) a novel point-cloud shape adaptation based on the latent features ...
