Dr.STONE SCIENCE FUTURE

Good argument and you're right. If everyone stopped now and Senku stopped contributing technology's progression vertically, there's more than enough to work with for horizontal progression to get some somewhere in the 19th Century. But that requires PEOPLE and slooow development. Slowly building up roads, economy and cities. Which is why I thought about Mass Production. They've have already done all 3 of those by the time they get to mass production and then the fashion company can be an actual thing

It just hit me while watching this episode that we're only going to hear that title card music 3 more times at most. It's been a constant in the series since season 1 in 2019, such an integral part that even when I listen to the openings on their own, a part of me expects to hear it immediately afterwards. It feels very nostalgic. Man, it's been a journey. I was still in middle school when season 1 aired, now I'm in university. It feels like I've lived an entire lifetime during the time Dr Stone has been airing. The me of the time before the pandemic feels like an entirely different person.

Playing the ED over the rocket launch was an amazing choice! Burnout Syndromes did such an incredible job with the song and it fit perfectly for the moment we've been waiting for the entire series. Also there were so many great character moments this episode! Ryusui especially was a standout. As sad as it was to see him step back from the pilot role it says a lot about his character that even as greedy as he is he's always willing to make the pragmatic choice. (Also Stanley and Xeno need to just kiss already c'mon bro why is your first choice after waking up to play with his lips like that be so fr 😭)

I was thinking more along the lines of Stanley as an experienced soldier was making sure they weren’t just trotting out a freshened up Xeno that was actually a mistreated PoW with malnutrition which he could check by looking at his teeth and skin condition. For all he knows Senku’s group could have retaliated on Xeno based on the atrocities his faction committed. It sounds outlandish to type that out but that doesn’t seem like a far fetched train of thought for someone with a world view like Stanley. He also could have been giving Xeno an opportunity to Morse code a message with his eyes by blocking the sides FoV when he moved his head. (as you can tell I’m bored but it’s fun to create plausible deniability for the stealth yaoi lmao)

This series always knows how to get you emotional with those ''Humanity Fuck yeah'' moments. The moon landing is one of my favorite scientific moments in history and seeing the rocket lifting off is so beautiful. Kohaku is one lucky girl, she'll be the first stone age person to go to space and the moon. Most modern people didn't even do that. Also, barring a kiss, they couldn't make it clearer that Stanley is super gay for Xeno. The way he grabbed his face.

God, Stanley and Xeno are so gay for each other. Looks like Stanley really missed Xeno. Like, what the fuck is up with that cheek and lip fondling? I love it tho! Senku granting everyone's requests was pretty fun. I had a good laugh when Taiju finally got his smartphone , and they revealed how big the entire thing actually is. Dude is carrying an entire PC on his back. 😆 Not gonna like, that rocket launch actually got me teary eyed. 92 episodes later, we have finally reached the moon. I can't wait to finally meet the Why-Man and their reason for petrifying humanity.

Our physics do work in bookworm's world. When Myne made odorless candles by "salting out" the wax it worked. That process works by using real world chemistry. There isn't anything to suggest that photosynthesis isn't a thing either; the greenery is green which demonstrates that plants indeed use photosynthesis. In bookworm's world though there is an additional science called "magic" that follows its own logic. That's why not all of Myne's concepts work. Magic and mana would be what trips Senku up.

Stanley's revival was very shoujo, the dude is so pretty (I'm sure Xeno agrees). I know this season has felt a bit rushed because of how much progress they had to make, but I am still HYPED for the final stretch. Bonus Side Story Yuzuriha: "Taiju!! I keep telling you not to bring your smartphone to bed with you!" Taiju: "Sorry babe! Yeah I guess it's bad sleep hygiene huh." Yuzuriha: "No, it's because there's no room for MEEE!!!"

Opening the episode with Ryuusui is unfair, I feel so bad for him. He is very admirable for giving up the position of pilot, but man I wanted to hug him when he started crying, I think this might be the first time we see him cry. It hurt to see him putting on a brave face when we know he's hurting inside.  I do appreciate that Stanley came over to show Ryuusui he didn't make the wrong choice, I know it'd hurt more to learn the difference, but I also think it helps Ryuusui from not thinking "What if?".  Talking about Stanley, that intimate moment between him and Xeno had me surprised lol. I know he was checking to see if Xeno was harmed, but the way he grabbed Xeno's chin and felt his lips, they're showing once again there's a lot more to their relationship. The shippers are being fed well lol.  I'm so glad Taiju got to give Senku one last message, and his own declaration if anything were to go wrong. Taiju has been by Senku's side since they were children, it's only right. I hope Senku is able to come back slowly because with Taiju's determination, he really will spend decades looking for pieces of petrified Senku.  This was a moving episode, and I think the one I enjoyed most this season. Hopefully the confrontation and climax of the series will be even better.

It is tragic, but a testament to his character. He is the platonic ideal of how greedy capitalists should be. He wants everything. He needs everything. But he wants and needs it in a way to where he can admit when he isn’t the best character for a task. He is also greedy in a way that elevates mankind, not just leaving him at the top with everything while the bottom has nothing. He is greedy for mankind’s advancement. He is willing to give up individual glory and profit for the benefit of the world. Just like there is a non-existent, perfect communist, he is the non-existent perfect greedy capitalist. He has really shot up in my favorite character list.

His greed allows the recognition that benefiting everyone benefits him. It's the way that the stimulus checks helped the billionaires by giving people spending money, it still went to the top few at the end of the day. And a lot of the progress that was provided to the few at the top, once it trickled down to the masses, boosted productivity and allowed for better things to be made for those at the top. His greed recognizes that for his greed to be satisfied the system needs to survive in the long run and he maximizes the likelihood for that no matter what

I did see it as character development. Sure, he is greedy but his greediness didn't swallow him as a selfish person completely knowing he has limits and someone can do a better job than him. It's like in real life, you have to realize that there's always someone better than you, but it doesn't mean that you're useless and that's commendable. He already made tons of contribution to the series as a best man for the Science Kingdom, now with all of humanity, he choose to give way on the best person to do the job.

My fucking god, these bitches gay! Good for them! Good for them! Happy Pride Month to Xeno and Stanley 🏳️‍🌈 I love how they have matching claws. Why have rings when you can have click clack claws that make you look fierce and terrify? I get that Ryusei wanted to go, but his step back really is a great character moment for someone who is the embodiment of (semi-healthy) greed. You can microwave oven rice? I didn’t know that. I wonder if that’s better than stovetop rice or rice cooker rice. Plastic wrap contests! I live for plastic wrap contests. I’m always fooled by them. Yes to heating pads! Please!! Still manifesting official art where the Kingdom of Science meets the Artemis II crew. Or something with NASA. Or anything with Japan’s aerospace division. Not me holding my breath like I’m watching a live NASA stream. I need to go to the MM Romance Books subreddit and request dedicated soldier x mad scientist couples who are lacqueristas. I love Stanley and Xeno’s dynamic. I’m sure there are doujinshi out there with them. This episode reminded me of { Assassination Classroom } and its own little astro arc. Also a great series as both for manga and anime. I’m so glad Stanley’s return and a Stanley/Xeno reuinion coincided with Pride Month. I wish the rocket launch and return coincided with Artemis II because, you know, but still, what a nice coincidence 😌 Now kiss kiss fall in love in 4K please

Stanley woke up and immediately got up to his gay business. Poor Ryusui was having an emotional moment with Francois but bro had to interrupt it to flex his sharpshooting skills lmao. Taiju finally got his smartphone after so many years! He really deserves it, he's been asking for one since season 1. Putting the ending in with the episode still going on was a nice touch. We are finally in space. Senku is finally able to realise his life long dream. Next stop, the Moon!

7 years, that's a long journey and one echoed in part in the very narrative. I wonder how old the cast is now, probably in their early 20s? Seeing the rocket take off really brought me to tears, we're so close to the end I can already feel the sadness it will bring once it's over. Stanley appearing to aurafarm in the start mad eme laugh, of course he wants to reassure Ryusui that his choice was right, but that just feels disrespectful. Also, I'm feeling bad for Luna, girl entered a lost race.

Very heartbreaking for Ryusui, but he knew it was the right decision. Even when Francois thought he hit all those targets, it was Stanley from further behind. I was hoping they would make a Game & Watch or Game Boy when Senku first described the LCD technology, but they went straight to the giant smart phone! Giant Step, definitely in reference to the quote when the first humans landed on the moon.

I actually really like the story decision for Ryuusui to give up his position to the better choice and the story actually stick with it. I was really expecting a last moment "oh hey I trained you and ur good to go" type of thing. This show really never fails to just get me teary eyed with its moments. That rocket launch with the ED playing in the back... Fuck me it was so well done. Hard to believe this show is about to be over. I've really enjoyed the journey and love the characters.
