About
"Flat Is Justice" is a catchphrase used by otakus and anime fans to express one's appreciation for female characters with flat chests, rather than big busts, most often in association with lolicon.
Origin
It's believed that the catchphrase was inspired by a dialogue from the Japanese visual novel Shuffle!, first released on January 30th, 2004, in which the character Mayumi Thyme proclaims that "a flat chest is a status symbol" in reference to her own bust.[1] The dialogue was later mentioned in the fourth episode of the 2007 anime series Lucky Star by the main character Konata Izumi, spreading the quote through the anime community (shown below, left). In June 2011, the tenth episode of the anime series Steins;Gate was released, which included a scene wherein the character Mayuri Shiina tries to cheer up Luka Urushibara over her flat chest, translated as "flat is justice" in one of the fansubs (shown below, right).

Engineering Paper
In mid-January 2018, a paper titled "Analysis and Qualitative Effects of Large Breasts on Aerodynamic Performance and Wake of a 'Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid' Character" was released on the academic resource site ResearchGate.[19] In the paper, author N. Rabino examines the aerodynamic capabilities of the large breasts belonging to theMiss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid character Lucoa. In the study, Rabino compared two different 3D model's of Lucoa with different sized breasts in a virtual wind tunnel, examing their drag, life and turbulence, concluding that larger breasts were more aerodynamic than small breasts (shown below).

On January 18th, Rabino submitted a post explaining the paper to /r/anime,[20] where it gathered upwards of 1,300 points (96% upvoted) and 120 comments within 24 hours. At the end of the post, Rabino left the following "disclaimer":
"Disclaimer: You now exist in the same timeline where there is academic-level research on whether or not anime titties are aerodynamic or not. RIP "flat is justice". Moreover, I wrote this paper for fun and not in any way to fulfill my degree requirements. Also, Lucoa is not my waifu."
