Fictional debates Memes

The mathematical horror on display here is *chef's kiss*. Imagine trying to explain infinite-dimensional vector spaces to people who use math just to make fictional characters unreasonably powerful! The juxtaposition of serious mathematicians encountering "powerscalers" (folks who debate which anime character could beat up which) is peak academic nightmare fuel. That poor textbook on Hilbert spaces—containing some of the most elegant mathematical constructs used in quantum mechanics—reduced to "dummy terms" for people arguing about whether Goku could destroy a universe. The mathematical ancestors are weeping.
