ManYue: Separate changed conditions, visible results and causal claims in an experiment scene

A character changes a paper-plane fold and the next panel shows a longer flight. That establishes a story outcome, not necessarily that the fold alone caused it. No actual flying is required: read an invented or authorized scene and record change, outcome, uncontrolled conditions and character explanation. ManYue is not experiment-design, distance-measurement or causal-inference software, and notes must not supply unshown trials.

Bound a scene with before-and-after conditions

Choose two to four panels showing attempts and character explanation. Record work, edition, chapter, position and panels. Alternatively draw A using fold one with a one-metre label, then fold two with two metres, followed by apparently fold two goes farther. Label the teaching invention; distances come from written labels, not perspective measurement. Preserve visible paper, environment and action scope. One result panel is not a complete experiment. Keep the scene unchanged and analysis external.

Separate deliberate changes from recorded outcomes

Create five fields: attempt ID, deliberate change, labelled result, other visible conditions and unknowns. Fold is the change and labelled flight distance one/two metres the outcome; distance is not also the manipulated condition. Equal paper size or the same thrower requires image or text support, not stylistic similarity as strict control. Mark possible same sheet when identity is uncertain. These fields do not certify an experimental standard; they distinguish conditions supplied by the story from ones supplied by imagination.

Check what else changed at the same time

Inspect location, wind cues, launch position, posture, paper and measurement origin, recording only supported differences. No drawn wind does not prove still air, and inventing a gust does not refute the character. A new room or thrower means multiple changes, not only a different fold. Separate known changes from unknown conditions. Zoom clarifies visible marks but cannot reveal actual throwing force; exaggerated motion lines are not precise speed without a measurement definition.

Separate one result from a stable pattern

With comparable labels, one to two metres means the second result is one metre greater and twice the first on this occasion. Two images alone do not prove fold two always doubles distance. Record one shown attempt per fold rather than treating a character’s many times as data you observed. An explicit narrative summary of repeated results can be recorded separately as narrated evidence, not visible trial records. Counts, sequence and scope affect the supported claim. Omitted panels do not automatically mean no failures.

Attribute character inference and narration separately

Attribute apparently fold two goes farther to A as inference or observation summary, preserving apparently rather than changing it to proved. If narration explicitly supplies a causal explanation, record its claim and panel separately from visible conditions. A story may stipulate causality while not displaying a full evidential argument; these are distinct observations. State which textual evidence supports which claim, without generalizing a fictional trial’s limitations to real science or judging a character’s overall competence.

Advance through comparison questions, not invented trials

List questions needed to assess the design, such as paper specification, common origin, changed order and repeated attempts. These are information needs, not experiments performed, nor demands that fiction become a laboratory report. A self-made checklist can assist, but invented successful trials are not original-work evidence. When later text answers one question, append source and review date while retaining its earlier unknown state. This shows an updated understanding rather than retrospectively making later information an initial fact.

Check label scope when outcomes are unclear

A number may denote distance, score or attempt ID. Read caption and unit before interpreting two as two metres. Different measurement origins preclude direct subtraction, and a flashback to another contest is not the same comparison. If zoom does not resolve a label, keep it unread and inspect context rather than adding data from an online synopsis. For display feedback, identify page and missing label instead of treating absent automatic analysis as a defect. Without comparable outcomes, complete the condition record but leave the result not comparable.

Recheck facts and open questions after returning

Leave the reader and return to both attempts and the character summary. State change, observation, unknowns and who supplies the causal explanation. Verify premises for one/two metres, one-metre increase and twice on this occasion, without deleting this occasion into always. Retain the five fields, locators and questions separately from the comic. Share only lawful minimal descriptions, identifying invented versus real-work scope. The result is a traceable experiment-scene reading note, not a report of an experiment you performed or automatically inferred hidden conditions.

Checked on November 8, 2026: Apple public version information lists ManYue 2.0.4, requiring iOS / iPadOS 15.0 or later. Feature scope follows the official App Store description and the installed version. This article provides reading and checking methods you can perform; it does not claim step-by-step physical-device or private-server testing. Manual records, external tools and actually visible controls are identified separately, and personal analysis or code observations are not presented as verified automatic capabilities.
