In 2010, the RIKEN institute in Japan created mutant cherry blossom trees by firing ion beams at them in a particle accelerator. The mutated trees now bloom four times a year and produce more flowers.
a wise use of science powers
ok so i’m not saying this is the most japanese thing ever, but I’m not saying it’s not
“we have a ray gun that creates mutants” anime level 8/10
“we used it to make super cherry blossoms” japan level 10/10
“so are they like firebreathing carnivorous flowers or” “no they just make more flowers, more often” aesthetic level 11/10
“well done, this is exactly what we hoped would happen when we paid a zillion dollars to build a particle accelerator” —the project backers
Particle physics is fucking magic Some wizards took a magic box into the woods and fucked up some trees. I love this shit
“ok so should we mutate like a super army or-” “no. this sakura tree.” “but why” “hanami four times a year instead of once. imagine”
