'Dr. Stone' Anime Series Sequel in Production

The 11th and final episode of the second Dr. Stone anime season, Dr. Stone: Stone Wars, ended with a sequel announcement following its broadcast on Thursday. The sequel will continue the story with the Daikoukai Jidai-hen (Age of Exploration) arc.

Synopsis (Stone Wars)
Senkuu has made it his goal to bring back two million years of human achievement and revive the entirety of those turned to statues. However, one man stands in his way: Tsukasa Shishiou, who believes that only the fittest of those petrified should be revived.

As the snow melts and spring approaches, Senkuu and his allies in Ishigami Village finish the preparations for their attack on the Tsukasa Empire. With a reinvented cell phone model now at their disposal, the Kingdom of Science is ready to launch its newest scheme to recruit the sizable numbers of Tsukasa's army to their side. However, it is a race against time; for every day the Kingdom of Science spends perfecting their inventions, the empire rapidly grows in number.

Reuniting with old friends and gaining new allies, Senkuu and the Kingdom of Science must stop Tsukasa's forces in order to fulfill their goal of restoring humanity and all its creations. With the two sides each in pursuit of their ideal world, the Stone Wars have now begun! [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Dr. Stone (Zoku-hen) on MAL

This is exhilarating.

Hundred billion times exhilarating. Seriously.

With the AnimeJapan only a couple days away, more so.

Good to see the series is still going strong and I can’t wait for S3!

Yay I can’t wait, this is hype.

That was fast. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎

Pretty expected that one

This is great news. More Dr. Stone is always welcome if you ask me. I stopped reading the manga at some point which this next season will cover so I will mostly be going into unknown.
It's time to watch season 2 now that it's finished.

Ryusei hype! It's gonna be an epic journey.

DAMN that was fast.
I didn't even start stone wars

I liked the 2nd season , and the mystery of the petrification is still there so i'm glad to see they started with another season already.

A hundred billion percent yes. Hopefully we will get more than 11 episodes this time.

This series is freaking awesome and excited. I'm very glad they make more sequel. Sosoruze, Kore wa! :D

This is the best news I've heard all day

CAN'T WAIT

Definitely well deserved!🤩
I just hope it has a bit more episodes, stone wars felt a tad too rushed through

Not surprised, I can't wait already. XD

Ohh... I haven't watch the current season yet and another is on the way. Nice.

I'm so glad so many anime are getting new seasons quickly these days.

The production is well advanced, too good !!!

Not surprised, season 1 ended with the announcement for season 2 as well

Nice to hear. Dr Stone is great, it deserves a full adaptation.

Is it me or it feels like it's been getting easier to get sequels lately. Really didn't expect this.

Rushed? they adapted exactly 2 chapters per episode if you say it's rushed blame the manga not the anime

I'm so excited for the rest!

get ready for Ryusui

It seems to me that in our time it is possible to get a sequel than not.

its gonna be a good 2022

This news is definitely exhilarating!
