It's a pretty good adaptation, following the manga without any creative freedom, overall it's pretty basic, I think most anime watchers are going to like it

Very unlike the pyro firemen, this shounen proposed a more interesting and different premise and development, although it feels accelerated and the protagonists quickly assimilate the situation.
I recommend it a lot.

It was pretty good, everything so far was of my expectation, now just hoping they don't stray away from the manga but because the studio doing it is TMS, I highly doubt they are going to do that.

Well, he in all his "Episode discussion" posts tends to comment first, and after a couple hours he edit it by giving his final thoughts which leads me to believe he watches the episode just before he edit his own comment. He probably just wanna be the first to post as he's winning something by doing that.


Ha, my apologies then, I thought you were jumping to conclusions hella quickly!

Why would he do that though lol.


Don't listen to him. It's ironic that he was accusing me of something so trivial when the same guy has his anime list empty and restricted (and even wrote a review of SNK s3 part 2 without the anime in his list). If I were you, I would doubt him. Also, he cares so much about editing my own comment lmao. If you ask me, it's just harassment and off-topic.

@Ryougine Sometimes I watch the Raw version first, sometimes I read the manga first, who cares? I think, maybe, you care a little too much.

Writing "E = MC²" in his clothes is the anime equivalent of Leto-Joker's "Damaged" tattoo.

Seems like a creative and fun series, the absurdity of the premise is not as much of a deal-breaker like I thought it would be. I can see a lot of potential in the story, but I wonder how the shounen aspects will be implemented into this. Like what is there to even fight about?

"Saving humanity from the brink of extinction is wrong"

Excited to see where this goes though.

I liked the idea of the story, and totally loved the pacing, it doesn't feel slow nor rushed.
The animation especially for the outro which is supposed to be the intro is so good, I also absolutely loved the music when Senku and his friend figured it out, it's tropical and it the whole atmosphere was pleasing to me.
I'm really curious to see how far the story goes, especially they are planning on making a new civilization! sounds very interesting!

Too much drama from the getgo and that seems to be the sole center of the show. It would at least explain how they forgot that when the green stuff was turning everyone into stone it was daytime in both japan and Italy. Plus what is with people underground?

This feels so refreshing. I hope it continues on this path and doesn’t devolve into a trope show.

Dr. Stone is a very catching character and the big oaf is hilarious and full of heart.

Likeable first episode, it doesn't bad at all. All living things turned into stone and we have two characters to do experiments to bring back the original state of the world. TMS Entertainment makes good premises with their anime. Well, let's see how it will turn out.

For a moment I thought the guy shouting every minute was Asta from Black Clover. Almost dropped it.

I admit, it was a great start, straight to the point and bluntly. I already begin to understand why it was one of the most anticipated animes of this season. I loved. It goes from science fiction, to fantasy, and mystery, drama and comedy, which are not bad. It has been a perfect combination. Honestly, I have not been disappointed at all this first episode. Many questions of a great mystery have been raised. The global petrifaction, a mystery that Senku, Dr. Stone, along with his great friend, Taiju, will try to solve with the help of Science and thus recover humanity.
Ingenuity and strength, what one does not have, the other complements it.
I like very much both characters, they are good 😁👌, and great animation and soundtrack, by the way.

Definitely, I'll mark this anime on my list this season. And I have a feeling that it will become one of my favorites.
Let's see what other surprises and mysteries this incredible story brings us. It will be a pleasure to continue with you, this anime week by week.

Ps: 1.Senku spent with gasoline. LOL 😂. That guy is amazing, he spent 3700 years counting the days, and thanks that can know the exact date. And he had faith that Taiju would survive, and also that he would not be rejected by Yuzuhira. That's what I call him, true friendship.
2. Taiju's love for Yuzuhira, survived hundreds and thousands of years. He is a true man. I hope he can save her 😢
3.Who would say that bat droppings and alcohol would save the world xD.
4. Is it that neither asks for their families or friends? 😂

I will learn many useful things in this anime. "Overcoming Fantasy with Science".

As a manga reader, this first episode was esplendid, they didn't miss anything, and I also remember some of the scenes from the manga, and I read them like more than a year ago, really good. Good VA overall, the plot is perfect, the opening is perfect, the not rushed first chapter is perfect. The problem I have is that I don't really like Senku's VA, but that will be nothing in next episodes, since I already like Asta's and well, you know.

Definitely intriguing. The first half left a lot to be desired for me, as both main characters seemed kind of one note, with the seemingly one-track minded shounen screamer Taiju, and the all-knowing, arrogant brain Senku. However, the show grabbed me when it went done the scientific route of determining why they woke up so close together and before others, instead of pulling something out of their ass, like "our wills were too determined to break free" or something. These two work together well also.

There are still some major questions that may or may not be answered (Were they conscious the entire time they were stone? And if so, how are they still (relatively) sane?), but it is showing promise, although part of me would also be fine if this turned into a shounen, post-apocalyptic Pinky and the Brain.

Pretty good, but it really burns me out how the world basically ended and all dude cares about is that one girl. Like why is there so little care for the gravity of the situation they've found themselves in. And like do you have a family?? Shouldn't you be worried about that instead of some girl. Plus Senku is just too ridiculous for me to seriesly believe he was a high school student. It's one thing if it's mha or something and everyone has wacky character designs, but literally everyone else looked like a "normal" high school student. I mean come on. It would have been so much more believable (and interesting) if Taiju awoken and happened to stumble across this eccentric looking guy with crazy hairdo and mysterious back story.

How does the background look so nice but the characters looked horrible at times lol. When everyone turned to stone the kids dog didn't and neither did other animals (wild dogs or wolves I think it was) but then later on he's experimenting with birds that had turned to stone??

Well on MAL Dr. Stone is more popular and has a higher rating. It just depends on what bubble you subscribe to. I usually just go with what I like and ignore the screamers. I think it's win-win though because both shows had a great start.

Senkuu already owns my heart, but this "e = mc²" bothers me a little. Taiju does not seem as annoying as I imagined it would be.
The plot seems interesting enough, the level of "nonsense" is not so high and well, they are using real science, at least up here, I wonder how the mangaka got their sources...

Why does Senku look so evil all the time lol.

I wonder why the stone is only an outer layer when corroded but if broken by force, the people are solid stone and will fall apart in pieces.

Ngl, the animation is pretty limited, but that doesn't matter as much. The artwork is great and they're handling Boichi's hard-to-handle artwork quite well. VA's are on-point too. Excited for this one, since the manga is quite good. Dr. Stone is for science what Food Wars is (or I guess "was", considering the manga...) for cooking.

All I can say is "sosoruze, kore wa!" *insert smug senku face*
