| Pretty good start! Wonder if that liquid will help bring back everyone. |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| I'll give it one or two more episodes before deciding if I want to drop. So far I haven't been impressed though. It felt like "Primitive Technology - The anime" and I've never found those videos to be interesting either. MC also hasn't really rubbed off on me yet either. Also can't stand that he has the standard "mad scientist" look with the "exploded" hair, lab coat, and they even went as far as to put "E=MC2" on the lab coat because...science. |

inim said: Knowing this is shounen I was prepared for kids with near superpowers. Because it has "science" in the official synopsis, and I love science, I gave it a shot. But holy crap. What I got was a weird de-facto isekai with some of of the worst science babble I've seen so far, only second to the butchered "Quantum Physics" in Bunny Senpai. "Polyethylen is just a long gasoline molecule with a few hydrocarbons chopped off." Yea, fuck thermodynamics, fuck chemistry, those details are for loser nerds. This perma-smirking Senku scientist-ish brat is about cool, not about getting detail right. Or anything scientifically right. "Ten billion percent", as if 100% didn't already equal certainty. And to make my day perfect, he zips a canned beverage right in the chemical lab. Goosebumps. I've lost at least "ten billion" brain cells suffering the bullshit of the first 5 minutes only. Even an ecchi like No Game No Life has it's game theory math correct. But this piece of garbage doesn't even try to get the science it bears in the very synopsis right. Hard drop. *plonk* That's the most boring route the could've chosen imo, glad the did what they did. |
Doodoo_Man said: For a scientific anime, this anime isn't scientific enough. Especially the aftereffect for the event. I mean you've been trapped inside a stone for a fuckin 3000+ years. calm down there, i am not gonna fuzzes about "why they still alive" i guees it just how it is. BUT, how come they still have a good function of their body, even if they're not paralyzed i kinda hope it a little bit difficult for them to use their muscle again. But this, wtf?? They just hatched from the stone like a fresh man come out from a shower. Man. That's disappointing me in different level. And one more thing.. how come Dr.Stone, have been hatched dor half years, but didn't find the materials to make sake we talking about the geniuses here. Oh.. and the VA isn't that good, wtf is that beast man, is he Asta? Annoyingly screaming around. Okay, you guys seems not to let the show develop his aspect and espected all answers to be deliver day 1 lol. For y'all bother by the fact that ''Senku counted for 3700 years in frozen state'' and ''Taiju stay awake with his will'' without any obvious CONSEQUENCES on their mental and physical condition actually have a link with the title of the manga and all the petrification stuff, it's will be explain soon in the show ! Why don't you have some god damn patience, jeez... |

| They really went all out with the soundtrack. It gave me some serious Made in Abyss vibes that I even had to look up who was in charge of the music. Sadly not the same guy but still amazing The rest is as expected. Very good first episode |
| ok, yeah, i really loved this. like a lot. i'm a massive science nerd so finally getting an anime about science with legit science in it is beyond awesome. the animation is incredible - that stone turning scene was really quite gruesome and done really well. the OP is a banger too. super excited for this one! |

Julianfoxy said: Well, taste differs. But I'm not sure it would even influence "the route", because it is about diligence in language and honesty in labels, not about plot. I happily accept turning to stone, staying alive in that form while remaining brain function, etc. pp. Just label it "magic" please, and not science. Dr. Stone's world claims to be the real world, so the laws of nature apply. But the plot heavy-handedly ignores it, which leads to my cognitive dissonance between the label and the content. This is an isekai world, not the real one. At least label stuff properly and then pull any fantasy you want. Neertheless, meanwhile I made progress understanding the mechanics of Shounen story telling in another thread (https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1790727) and am a bit more relaxed about it all. inim said: That's the most boring route the could've chosen imo, glad the did what they did.Even an ecchi like No Game No Life has it's game theory math correct.

 |
| This was a neat first episode. I really like the characters, settings and premise so far. |
| Mankind knew that they cannot change society. So instead of reflecting on themselves, they blamed the beasts. |
| I like the VA for Senku, Taiju reminds me of the dude from Saiji Kusuo, well animated so far |
 |
| This sounded like something I would like. The premise is cool and all but I feel the execution is just lacking. The art and animation are pretty terrible and the characters are pretty much caricatures with how one dimensional they are. |
 |
| I really like the dynamic between the two, also love the OP! |

Why don't you have some god damn patience, jeez... Is this some "This is anime, it's a fiction" kind of shit? Dude believe me, I've watched lot of anime every single of that is nonsense (to an extend). But they still at least "believable" for the logic inside that anime. First, this anime.. is inconsistent, the focal point of this anime is "Science" right? All the chemist reaction stuff on the begining, the MC,even how they progress it onward (i am hear a lot of manga reader praise this manga a lot by how "Scientific" the story tell everything). So i am so much hyped for the anime, but look at the very first episode.. there's so much inconsistent thing happen. Ok, say that we ignored their mental and physical state. God knows why, they didn't even have any side effect for 3700 years. Lol i am laughing at this part. 3700 focken years. And let me talk about "the sake part" This kid, Dr. Stone is a very fuckin geniuses right? That's how the mangaka made him right? So.. how come.. how come.. that he's already been out for like 6 months doing research and fail just because he missing one thing and that's sake, but can't even find/know the basic materials to make it. Really? For a fuckin geniuses who happen to know all of chemical reaction? Dude even if he didn't have grape's.. there's many way to make alcohol. Is this considered consistent for an anime who focus on "Science"? Oo.. it's anime, it's fiction, why all the reality, i am pissed so much when stupid people say this. For god sake we know that's Anime, it's not real but at least have some consistency There is no inconsistency , these are just mystery waiting to be explain I know what I'm talking about don't , worry lol. LMAO you're literally saying ''You're a science guy so you can find anything anywhere''.... I think that's the point of bringing Taiju lololol. And they didn't make 'sake' they make 'wine'. Do you think there is a 'google map' or 'supermarket' to find grapes so easily ? (If Senku chooses to make sake he will need rice and that one will be a pain in the ass and so unrealistic if he actually manage to succeed on his own in 6 month). Being a 'science genius' don't make shit so easy they're literally showing that Senku empirical and theorical knowledge are limited in this world setup if he don't have the right guy next to him. However, Taiju finding grapes just in time is plot convenient. If you guys are so much triggered by this , I can't wait to see your reaction next episode hehe. |

You could search haeckel fraud or you could read about the many vestigial organs that actually have very important purposes thus are not vestigial. For instance without your coccyx you could not sit down or do a lot of the lower limbs actions. There are plenty muscles linked to this. Or how about the whale vestigial bones that are actual used in giving birth? I can give you a ton of examples. 2. Highschool was not great but I have no complaints. About prom... things are not the same as in US everywhere. Proms are not something so essential in other countries. I do remember we organized a prom for the freshmen in 12th grade though. Was fun. 3. I would not worry for my life. I am doing pretty good for myself. And insults do not work on me 4. Prozac? Usage of brain altering drugs does not work as well as you think. Also I had to look up Erza as I find Fairy Tail to be garbage |
| I'm loving the quality of storytelling tied in with animation and sound!! The way they did Senku's time in darkness counting was so cool and intense! I'm glad the comedic faces and stuff was really great here! I'm chill with the animation right now- hope it gets really up there (the opening style of art was incredible). |
| ファラオ |
| While i did like episode 1 quite a bit, which made me go and read the manga, that on the other hand made me worried tbh. There's no real substance to mine there. The start is solid, and there's something that will bring the story forward by a bit but that's it. There's a lot of fluff between 2 points that involve the main storyline, which foreshadows an anime which has no concrete ending but just a lot of fillers. Hope i'm wrong |
| Pretty good first episode Maybe i just missed something but they explain how our main characters broke free?? Was it just their determination or something lol?? |
| Rare instance where I think the characters come across as more charming here than in the manga. |
| Good anime stone world xD. |

| A strong guy named Taiju arrived to school laboratory to talk with a guy named Senkuu about his love declaration. Taiju met a girl named Yuzuriha and when he was about to confess his feelings, a green light shone brightly from the horizon, suddenly, every human was turned into stone. Taiju woke up known nothing, and due to a clue in a tree, he encountered with Senkuu who woke up six months ago, he revealed that three thousand seven hundred years passed. Senkuu suggested that the nitric acid contained in the bat’s urine could be affecting the stone, so he has been experimenting without results, but it could be better with liqueur, Taiju remembered the grapes that he ate and suggested to produce wine with them. After obtaining wine, Senkuu proposed to distill it to produce brandy. Senkuu experimented with a combination with brandy and it worked and set free a bird. The first episode was not enough to judge where this anime is going to finish, sometimes it has comedy and weird decisions and others it’s very mature, the fact that Taiju survived for thousands of years thinking in a girl or Senkuu survived counting are just a joke. The animation is good and fluid, the backgrounds that they showed when Taiju woke up and discovered that thousands of years passed was amazing. This show is gonna be supported by scientific laws and experiments, so could be funny, but the comedy could kill it. It was disgusting when it appeared that Senkuu does everything excellent, fortunately he got wrong in this episode, at least, he’s not that op character that gets everything right. Do they had family? |

| It was alright. I found Taiju to be an annoying character. Senkuu was fine for most part, but his know-all attitude about “science” was a bit too much. Also, after waking up all alone after being petrified for thousands of years, Taiju seemed to be handling the situation rather well (too well if I’m being honest). It is the end of civilization, but there is no feel of panic and/or fear coming from Taiju. Psychologically, he should be a mess, but he isn’t... I guess “idiots” with big hearts like him are immune to dire situations. The overall animation was rather lackluster. Everything was kept pretty basic and to a minimum. I was hoping for more in that department considering this was the 1st episode of the series. Artwork ≠ Animation. I will keep watching for the time being. |

gadboyz said: They skip the panel that show Donald Trump was being stoned I was looking forward to that the most! D: Trump-kun's panel was removed. Booooo! Anyways, I'm glad that Kobayashi Yuusuke is doing both Senku in Dr. Stone AND Arthur Boyle in Enen no Shouboutai/Fire Force. In the manga, the dog on the leash was released and running about around its stoned master. In the anime, they made it seem like the poor doggo was stuck there forever. I love dogs whether they be in real life or Anime-form and they need love. Tsukasa's (primate high schooler) stone form looks older in the Anime than the manga. There are panels in the manga where Senku looks much older than his Anime counterpart. Overall, great first episode and I'm excited to watch more of it. |
| 臭い- |
| Primitive technology the anime lol. Senku's hair remind me of an onion. |
| looks decently interesting, but I still feel this will be super underwhelming. Playing the score game, 8.3 is just way too high for this. The setting is cheap, the characters are annoying, the art is bad, the story seems to be non existent. Would be better off as a short. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| It was pretty interesting. I'm looking forward to more. I wonder too. It seems like the main guy's focus was reviving that girl LOL. What the hell? |
| There are so many things I find highly questionable about the whole petrification part if this is supposed to be a scientifically based anime but that aside it's an interesting premise at least |
  |
| I like the juxtaposing nature of the sublime setting with the peril of the plot, it makes for an interesting and unique world. I think that this could go far. |

| Now, THIS is a first episode. The premise was clearly explained, there were actual characters, and the art style was atrocious. Take fucking notes, Arifureta. What a directorial debut. Everyone send Shinya Iino some love. Senku just dead-ass handed someone a bottle of gasoline to drink, lol. I love him already. It was predictable that the "Stone-ning" would take place as he was confessing his love, but I still liked seeing him try and protect the girl. It's pretty terrifying to think that they are still conscious under the stone layer. Especially if you think about just being to yourself for 3700 years. It's a miracle these two remained sane. I was wondering how Taiju got in the cave, but I assume that we are supposed to make the connection that Senku moved him there? Senku was counting for 3700 years. Damn. This is such a cool fucking premise. Isn't that the antagonist? Is it really this easy to make wine? That's certainly a creative way to shave. I'll stick to my razor though. I'm curious as to who they are going to "revive" first with this new miracle water. Loved the episode, extremely excited to see where this goes! |
