Giving me minecraft vibes with the acquisitions of various tools, but the real issue is, "where the hell is taiju?"

Realistically it would be best to just kill this gen guy since he's not trustworthy. Also if he tells Tsukasa about the settlement with ppl living there he's going to show up anyways.

Damn the end of this episode gave me freaking chills! This arc is way better then the first.

I wonder why Tsukasa revived Gen.

The new guy is too fancy. Why is every character in this show extremely fancy looking, can't the author make them look a bit more realistic? It is supposed to be a science anime.

They finally acquired magnet, electricity, and light. Asagiri Gen is introduced as a schoolmate of Senku, he can be bad or good it depends on what he chooses. Nothing much but they finally make progress on making antibiotics, this still makes me smile and Senku team is now getting larger and in just a short amount of time he can get the whole village.

Epic episode.

Gen seems like an amusing guy, I think he'll end up joining Senkuu after what he witnessed.

As over the top as all of this is, I loved how they magnetized the iron with the lightning and eventually built a generator.
The single greatest moment of this episode was Senkuu's speech about how Humanity conquered the night with eventually proceeding to create light for the first time. The OST was great too and the whole scene was just nothing short of incredible.

Can't wait for next week.

A huge improvement but the only thing that tickled my minds : how will they stock this energy ? Well I suppose they will produce it for an instant & single use but for example, the lamp they turned on won't last long once the 2 bros stop moving.

Anyway, this was entertaining but this new guy, Gen Asagiri, has the face of traitor lol, this might happen sooner or later.

I'm loving this so much! For real!
Everything is just so good, and the comedy is absolutely on point!

I love the approach of the guy that wrote this, in order to get his technology back he needs:
-people,
-to get people he needs to heal the princess,
-to heal her he needs to make medicine,
-to make medicine he needs a lot of resources,

and while finding and "creating" those resources he manages to "invent" new stuff and help the villagers, while simultaneously conquering their trust.

I love how the fact he needs to do a lot of completely unrelated things (at first sight) but it's all in order to create medicine, and until he creates it he might create a lot of new stuff!

I really hope this mentalist guy will join him and won't betray him! After all Senku "created" the light bulb already!!!

Best scene for sure!!!

Screw Edison, Senku. Nikola Tesla brought light to our world.


This crahp again. Hollywood bosses have done their best maligning Edison, even making him the villain in movies like Tomorrowland with George Clooney, where he betrays other scientists, and in The Prestige, where "his goons" comes to steal an invention.

They instead lift up Nicola Tesla, as he was a Balkan immigrant. And you buy it, of course. Notable how you have no facts in your posts, you just throw up propaganda like a vomit. Thomas Edison made the world's first system for giving sustained power to a light bulb, which was genius. But keep believing propaganda.

Hollywood attacks Edison because he invented film. He invented television. A group of Jews in Chicago stole his invention and used it to make money by showing crude, vulgar clips to the illiterate workers in the docks. Edison got no help from the authorities. He hired men to take back the invention, but the thieves hired Jewish gangsters, who stood on the roof of the warehouse firing at Edison's men.

Then they fled to California where Chicago's laws couldn't reach them, and that is why the movie industry was placed in Hollywood, instead of the more logical place, the east coast where investors and technology were concentrated.

And after that they have done their best to make Americans turn against America's greatest inventor, one of the greatest inventors of all time. A man who aside from the light bulb's system also invented the motion picture camera, the phonograph, bifocal glasses, and much more.

He invented a system for telegraphs to send four messages at the same time, which was of great importance. He invented the carbon transmitter for telephones, which before that used magnets, which produced weak currents. He designed a system of conductors, meters, lamp fixtures, sockets, fuses and current-switches for delivering electricity. He improved the design of power generators. There is no end to the inventions and improvements he came up with.

Amazing and fun episode! There are many things to comment on. Starting with the arrival of Asagiri, an enemy for being on Tsukasa's side, but also a possible ally after seeing what Senku has accomplished with his great scientific knowledge.
 Then, there is the surprising fact that they made a lightning rod, magnets and built an electricity generator. And finally, the bulb made with bamboo. In truth, I was amazed and more than astonished with this episode. In the end, I couldn't help smiling, saying, "This boy is great. Science is great." The kingdom of science is progressing and on the right track. Nothing is impossible, it only takes time.
This anime, without a doubt, is one of my favorites of the season and one of the best anime of this year. I love it with every episode 😁.

Ps: Now we know that Senku is allergic to lacquer, hahaha. A minute of silence for the spear of Kinro.

Senku showed the ramen to the village, but a strange guy (revived) named Gen Asagiri appeared, he’s between Tsukasa and Senku’s side. Later, people who ate ramen helped Senku to finish the creation of iron, Gen decided to stay with them for a while, Senku revealed that his idea is to create a generator, suddenly a thunderstorm started and Senku, Kohaku and Chrom started to create a lightning rod. They went to the bald mountain’s top and established the lightning rod, a thunderbolt stroke it and they obtained magnetic energy. Then, they used copper to create two giant discs and a kinetic power generator, Kinrou and Ginrou helped them to create energy, so Senku used that energy to pass it through a copper wire, inventing light.

The episode was ok and funny, this guy, Gen, sometimes seems like threatening and other is kind of funny, so, don’t know what to expect about him, I think he’s gonna betray them or something like that, Senku shouldn’t trust him.

I know that feeling, because I happen to have the same surname as a few certain Attack on Titan characters. It's kinda weird at first but you get used to it. The weirdest part is still when you see people use it as a username.

So, can we talk about how that guy's name was literally Magama. I realize simple names are the theme in the village but dang, he got a cool one.

Great episode!

The whole ramen thing was a success and now they aquired iron! How lucky can someone be to find copper in Chrom's collection and then the weather is also working in their favour, to finally aquire magnets. Interesting, yet quick developments. After all they got electricity now. I wonder when the village is going to open up towards Senku.

One of the best eps. They're really good at creating those moments like - With science, humanity defeated the darkness. This bamboo bulb is going to light the darkness of night for the first time in 37,00 years. Also background music is nice. And, Kohaku is great. I don't mind her fanservicey. xd

This episode especially made me tear up a bit. For some silly reason, I thought we're taking for granted all those precious stuff that scientists spent hundreds of thousands of years discovering and creating, like magnets, lightbulbs, food, etc. This episode was amazing.

I think he coated it with copper. Don't remember exactly, but because of that coat, it was able to become a light bulb since now the piece of bamboo would conduct electricity

Exactly, my friend. I was quite triggered when I saw this scene in manga and it triggered less, but still, after seeing it adapted into the anime.

Don't forget about Nikola Tesla and his inventions, Senku...
