Eons ago I called RPC-644 "an absurdly plain KK article", and I found this to be the Academy equivalent. It's practically a template for the group: a slightly artistic object that kills you, complete with a cordial message from the Academy and a crude note from the murderous anartist.
The phenomenon itself is one of those simple "wouldn't it be cool if" ideas, though I concede it is, in fact, kind of cool. What's not cool is CSD torture! Seriously. Perhaps it was more normalized when this article came out, but that log is just cruel for no good reason.
It's not a bad object to have in canon, but this article is stale. Though I haven't read them all, I doubt this has anything to hold it above any other Academy anomaly, any other anomalous software, or any other Utility object. 2/5
a 5m x 5m containment cell.
The classic "two-dimensional cell" quirk.
Each test subject carried a wireless heart monitor to track the RPC-328's anomalous property.
"The RPC-328"?
Why are the songs in the table listed as "Song - Artist"? I don't think that's standard. (Edit: It has since come to my attention that it can go either way. Good to know!) Also, crediting the homemade recordings as "- Authority" is kind of silly.
