Can calculus explain why you can never touch a certain person?
In short: This video uses the fictional power of Gojo Satoru to illustrate a fundamental concept in calculus: the epsilon-delta definition of a limit. It explores how a mathematical progression can create a barrier that is theoretically reachable but practically impossible to cross.
The video explores the concept of a limit by applying it to Gojo's 'Infinity' ability. It attempts to map the anime's mechanics onto the epsilon-delta definition, which is a rigorous way to describe how a function behaves as it approaches a specific value.
The creator notes that while there may be technical errors in the logic—potentially shared by the original manga author—the core goal is to provide a visual and conceptual framework for understanding how infinite divisions work in a spatial context.
