Asshole Tsukasa, gunpowder is for more than warring you know.
Short hair Yuzuriha!
As expected, new living humans detected. Hope they will form an alliance.
Suspension of disbelief aside, this has been a good series up to this point.

cliffhanger is kinda pointless, we know he won't die. i liked the flash back about MC's childhood, his father is a true hero. the drama so far lets me down but i am curious what blondie has to do in the story.

well that's a cliffhanger, though all of us knows they can't just kill off the main character like that

Well that was quick, found already due to the smoke from the gun powder they created, and there's no hiding their animosity anymore: Tsukasa taking Yuzuriha at knife-point unless given the method of revival. Yuzuriha then gives up her life almost instantly? That doesn't seem to fit her character, especially after just having had a moment with Taiju (who almost confessed, but decided to wait on it, of course). Speaking of Taiju, Senkuu has a flashback that reveals they were good friends all along? I thought they were more acquaintances from school. Anyways, Senkuu reveals the recipe to the magic juice and refuses to give up science so Tsukasa kills him while emotional music plays. Except this whole scene wasn't really emotional in the slightest to be honest, and it's obvious he's not going to die. Oh yeah and some girl is trying to signal them back with smoke or something, not much there for this episode, but clearly she's going to be the next character on this adventure. Probably the worst episode so far, but still a fun watch as always.

ok, after commenting about the animation last episode, it took a real dive this episode. F

Nonetheless Tsukasa has the potential to be a truly incredible character but it's a crapshot whether this show will retain the potential for meaningful character development.

0/10 Fairy Tail tier cliffhanger unless the show commits to killing him, which might be equally enraging at this juncture.

The hell was this cliffhanger; I mean, I'm taking Senku for the main character, it's impossible for this to be the end for him.

I'm seriously confused how Taiju even found out about their dire situation. Just because of the smoke signal? That doesn't make sense, he already knew they were going to repeat smoke signals.

Also I didn't even notice the dad sold his car lmao.

Just tfw is Senkuu have been thinking. That's not rational for him to blow out the secret recipe of the liquid to tsukasa. He must be already know that tsukasa will kill both of them and there should be no reason or advantage giving tsukasa the recipe.
This is really pissing me off.

Lol cliffhanger

The new character looks promising. Perhaps she's a science-type just like Senkuu. I guess these caves with dripping nitric acid are pretty common? I was wondering why Senkuu and the gang were traveling to another area, especially if it meant abandoning their means of resurrecting humanity, but I suppose there are more considering the appearance of a new character.

Alright somebody knock some sense into Tsukasa that fucker. Even if he kills Senku, there's gonna be people who will be the new Einstein and invent stuff and progress humanity. Science is not invented it was discovered, long after Tsukasa is dead there's gonna be someone who will discover it. Humanity will always progress forward, unless you're american, then you're fucked cause right now as I'm typing this, those idiots are rioting and looting as if covid-19 is not enough to worry about.

This primate is really a very clever guy, he knew from the start they were gonna build some gun powder. He is awoseme, i see my self in him, best caracter i ever saw, to smart, and can i add a lil bit sexy???!!?? U know what i mean, camon he rips his shirt like a mf, best caracter i ever seen in any anime. What i dont like is that little stupid green guy and his stupid friend, they start mumbling about science and shit, i dont care for that, i like that the primate punches the lions without even thinking, the other green stupid guy couldnt do that, hes too damn weak, he only can think some coca colas and want to build a stupid world

I love the way Senku thinks about the world, I wouldn't doubt he would have gone pretty far like Elon Musk far if the stone event never happened.

I do wish on the other hand I do think Taijiu should have told Yuzuariha how he felt about her, it will take a long time before brining back everyone back from being stone so who knows if the episode would really come where Taijiu does confess his love. I just don't want it to be one of those "I'll wait until my love is almost dead and or dying before I decide to confess"

But anyways Good episode

In this episode, it was shown a little about Senku's childhood, in which he was very dedicated to science from an early age and that thanks to his scientific experiments he met people who are now his friends.

Man Tsukasa did dirty there, and of course Senku had no other choice but telling him the composition of revival fluid. What a nasty cliffhanger though... but still predictable.

NANANA CAPITULAZO

Estudio ingeniería electrónica y me encantó ver todas las referencias a la ciencia y la tecnología en este capítulo.

Además, todo el conflicto filosófico sobre las consecuencias de crear armas y después revivir a todo el mundo en una sociedad armada, hace que te cuestiones si Senku tiene razón o no. Por otro lado, la valentía de la chica, que estaba dispuesta a sacrificarse, hace que ahora le tenga muchísimo respeto. Antes parecía que sólo estaba ahí para ser la carilinda del grupo, pero ahora es un personaje mucho mejor establecido.

La serie me está encantando. Es increíble la sensación de volver a sentirse cautivado por una historia. Ojalá siga así.

Lo único que no me cierra es que no se hayan muerto con la explosión de la pólvora, pero bueno. Y está claro que Senku sigue vivo, o sea, literalmente está en el poster, no lo van a matar en el cuarto capítulo XD

Otro detalle es que me pareció muy adulto que no se le haya declarado entendiendo que en un mundo donde no tiene a dónde más ir, sería como estar presionándola a tener que decirle que sí. Que al final se lo haya aguantado, es muy respetable

I just dont like Tsukasa as a antagonist like they had a change to give him a logical reason abut it all just sounds non-completed. He just kills random people and even tho he did say he dont like old power hungry people. He killed like people in their mid twenties too early thirties. They are not that older than him which kind of dont make too much sense too me at list. I don’t know he just annoying too me

All things considered, had Senku decided NOT to continue lighting up the fire to make more smoke signals, I am certain that things might have gone VERY differently. Coming in contact with human civilization is a massive advantage, more so than any sort of precious materials or items in the world. Knowledge, wisdom, manpower. He needs it all.

This episode was adapted brilliantly, the OSTs are fantastic, the adaptation for Dr. Stone so far has been exceptionally wonderful, and Tsukasa confronting Senku is just as tense as I remembered it when I read this close to 6 years ago, Awesome.

I don't think Senku is just a genius, there are many genii in this world, but few would have such a selfless heart and even fewer illogical enough to try and attempt to logically formulate an ambitious plan as ambitious as reviving the Human Civilization from a stone-age level technology.

Dangerous weapons come with dangerous risks, and Senku making gunpowder fits squarely in that situation. The huge boulder Taiju grabbed had to be made out of iron!

At least that explosion came with a big reveal, that others are awake in the world!

I'm hyped to see who that person is, but Senku's in a pickle now that Tsukasa is poised to kill him. I really hope he has a backup plan for this immediate crisis.
