That one small source of light lit up probably a square kilometer, I forgot how absolutely dark it is at night without any source of light whatsoever. It's no question, it's better to be with Senku's kingdom of science that Tsukasa's murdering ass.

I was wondering if the light would have REALLY have been visible from outerspace. But it probably could be visible due to the lack of light pollution.

Gen is pretty interesting, hopefully the kingdom of science managed to win him over.

I was grinning along with Senku in the last few minutes of the episode with that magnificent light, that was fantastic.

I’d be lying if I said I’m not a little disappointed by Gen’s character. He looked so cool & badass in the OP!!!!!!!! But he’s just.....another.....DORK lolllllol

What a cool ending & the art was great. Let there be the light of science♡







but i’ll probably remember over and over again

In this episode Senku managed to bring more people to the side of the scientific society, like Kinrou, Ginrou and Gen Asagiri. He also managed to make lighting to use when it's at night.

Again to no one's surprise, Senku succeeded in bringing out one more vital thing to life, electricity. Now i guess it's about time villagers reaching out to him.

You can't make molds for steel out of wood! It would smolder and burn away. There was no way they could have lit that filiment using electricity made earlier. They needed a way to store it to do that. That lightning strike and the storm clearing right after that was very coincidental. Everyone standing that close to the lightning strike would have been severely injured. The physics were wrong when Kohaku was jumping. Her dress would not have been able to cover her lower area every time. They could have shown white light over it. If this show is supposed to be about science it needs to be more realistic than this.


100%

My thoughts on this Electricity Side Quest are:

None of this is relevant in making antibiotics.

For a character who is repeatedly shown in flashbacks to have given himself a wide range of scientific data and who knows biology (he can actually name and identify poisonous and non poisonous wild mushrooms and he can determine if a flower is from a self pollinating plant or a cross pollinating plant.

Once you create a character who clearly has a SOLID grasp of biology and botany, who can identify exactly what type of wild millet it is that he sees a kid playing with and can tell all of it's properties...

You can't have that character not be able to identify plants with strong essential oils (fragrant) which have strong antiviral, antibacterial, antiinfamatory, antimicrobial (aka antibiotic properties). Wild garlic exists in Asia and it is an antibiotic.

If you actually do know science (botany / biology) like the MC then I don't see how you can not see the hack writing in this arc. It's either hack writing or intentionally done to add to the chapter count / add to the episode count.

Honestly she's got some respiratory symptoms. While he's preparing a chemical based antibiotic he could at least be shown to ask about her symptoms and use his Botany skill to pick some herb that could provide some relief for her cough, and increase his approval rating with the village and the village elders.

Surely a logical character would see the value in providing a temporary solution which the villagers can understand: A natural remedy from a plant which they know. Would make it easier when he comes up with a strange pill they've never seen before and says this won't poison you. Trust me. Etc.

Never been so shocked by a simple lightbulb in an anime, this ep showed how much we take things for granted and how complex they are.

If they did all that to get iron, what were the two rods that he used to grab the melting pot made out of?

Let there be light!.
from foxtail noodles to iron to magnets where does the scientific diagram point to next?
read all about it in Dr. Stone's guide to rebuilding advanced civilization. now with easy to understand diagrams for all ages.
great use of comedy and villain faces.

Best quote from the episode:

"Your name's Senku-kun? What kind of girls do you like?"
"A girl who can pump a ton of oxygen into a furnace"

Ha! At least Senku was honest! xD

But seriously... the ending gave me chills! The music, the characters' reactions, and seeing the prototype of a lightbulb in a world like this... it was all so powerful. Senkuu's explanation of how humanity conquered darkness was so moving and emotional, and the timing of the ending song was just perfect. This series really makes me appreciate all the amazing things humanity has accomplished, from conquering the night to defying gravity. And I love how it sparks excitement for the future by showing us our past discoveries!

Eyeshield 21 shoutout. Now I know these two series are written by the same person! Cool!
It used to be WTF is meaning, all I know is loyalty.
Now it's all I know is meaning, and I'm loyal to that.
