| So is it safe to say Senku's dad banged Lillian? That would make Ruri and Senku step siblings |
| I kind of expected something like this. Real good reveal to their current situation though. Having said that, the population would be much, much higher than just a village after so many years. |

| Just one negative comment passer by: I thought it can't be dumber in world creating but Dr. Stone suppress my imagination. I like the aspect of scince creating primitive tools and that's only the reason why this show enjoy me. But this episode haven't any of this and only contain furthrer riduculous trashy world creating. Like 30 villagers after 3000(?) years and 0 progress in evolution or fking knowing Senku from oral tales after milenias. I know it's primitive no-thinking-just-enjoy shounen but holy, it makes me cringe af when they try explain things in that ridiculous way. Just go build more tools instead telling us this bullshit story progress or characters who're masters in yelling. /Let my anger go out. Bye./ |
 |
| What an awesome flashback, it was really needed, and it surely exceded my expectation! First of all Senku's father was an awesome person, damn, so he was the creator of Ishigami village with other five astronauts! Lillian was surelly a beautiful, levely and awesoem woman, so Ruri and Kohaku are really like Lillian, it proves they are Lillian's descendents! Looking forward for the continuation of this flashback, really curious to see what happened next, and also i am kinda affraid if we will see something sad, lets see! |
 |
| Damn that reveal. To think that Senku was directly linked to the village's folklore, the last and final 100th story, it was kinda expected somehow. Byakuya is BEST dad, the kind of father that supports his own child, and with the genius mind that Senku has, it's as clear as day. And to think that it all started from space, in realism context it doesn't make any sense AT ALL, but bringing all the understanding back of Episode 1 when the whole world was petrified, it rounds up to full circle. What a wholesome episode. The last humans alive to rebuild and restart civilization from the world now turned into stone. |
 |
| Imagine when you are the last man in earth after armagedon day. 😮 Sondfer said: So, technically, everyone in that village may be Senku's relatives? Maybe yes. |
HitoribotchanOct 20, 2019 8:58 PM
| Woah!!! So they are the only survivors?? Senku and Ruri are relatives? I bet Senku's dad married Diva. This is getting exciting!! I want to know more about what happened before! |
| Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. |
| Sooo, the last people fucked each other to make that village? Nice. Jokes aside, kinda sad that Senku didn't get to meet his father again |
 |
| I was definitely expecting the rocket to explode tragically, so I'm glad that didn't happen :p Those giant zero-g boobies though! Overall pretty good episode imo. |
 |
| Wait, you wanna tell me the progeny of those only six people survived for 2 million years without cross-breeding degrading their dna so much that they basically turned into vegetables? Come on. Until now I let this show stretch my suspension of disbelief because it was fun and those 'scientific facts' just barely passable, but this is clearly too much, I just can't buy it even if I wanted to. |

| I haven’t been a big fan of this show but every time I watch another episode I anticipate the next. The story is rather fast paced but great. This episode was the best so far! I can’t wait until the next. Also....”hella” is not a word. |
| so... now we know if Senku gets with Kohaku It'll be some sort of grand-grand-grand-grand-sister wincest? ___ ___ ___ Also, interestingly that Lillian's Genes is the dominate one... since by biology, male genes are more dominate than female genes. Especially in term of hair and skin color. And yea... after 3700 years, you would think there would be a LOT more humans than small villages spread out... ___ ___ ___ Also Also, apparently Senku's dad failed... since at the end of episode he said "we're going to help the 7 billion people" Yet... 3700 years later... pretty much everyone is still statues until Senku broke free. That meant even with their knowledge and current modern technology, they couldn't figure out how to break people out of statues. (cause they obviously somehow made it back on Earth ground and start breeding to repopulate humanity after they failed to restore humanity) Other thing is... why didn't they try and save knowledge? even in books passed down like the Hundred Tales? cause as we've seen in episode 1, it took about 2000 years before everything starts to breakdown and degrade into dust, but if they were passed down and maintained, I am sure they would still be here today. (especially if you record them on non-degradable material, like stainless-steel and even Bronze as they've shown) As evidenced by ancient civilizations records that we still have today from thousands of years ago. IE: Egypt sculptures and even mummies with flesh intact... ___ ___ ___ So in a weird way... this whole astronauts survivors thing doesn't really make much sense. Especially since someone mentioned they have knowledge to prevent defects from inbred... yet they're not smart enough to know how to save knowledge and pass them down besides 100 stories? ___ ___ ___ BTW, another thing which I just realized until now... after 3700 years, why didn't we see any nuclear explosions/ meltdown across the entire planet? cause without anyone to maintain them... I am sure there's also no one to contain them. (see Chernobyl if no one contained it for 3700 years, see how bad it is with just a few year of no containment... now apply that to 3700 years and apply that to EVERY SINGLE NUCLEAR PLANTS IN THE WORLD) If anything, this world should have turned into Gozilla's Monster Planet after being exposed to mass Radiation... (abit that one took 10,000 years) |

| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| So that's how she knew his name, he's a part of their "Mythology" damn! What a sad and yet amazing episode! I'm loving this so much. I never thought they would show us his father when they all got transformed, to be even more honest i never thought that he made back to earth and founded the first village! What an episode! And btw, now we know where Kohaku and Ruri got their genes xD |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| I read the manga but I may have skimmed over or didn't read the part properly which said that Lilian was there because she paid a huge sum, being a millionaire singer. I had always wondered why would a space crew include a SINGER of all people to be with them? NASA/JAXA really needed that money, huh? Or simply because they needed some random character on the ship with good-looking genes to make sure their future kids/descendants aren't completely hopeless in the looks department. Oh well, at least now we know where Kohaku and friends got their genes from, at least appearance-wise. However, Kohaku and Ruri are very Caucasian-looking, I'm guessing Lilian's kids got together with the other blonde's kids and so on and so on many generations later to make kids that look more Caucasian. Everyone in that village should either look somewhat mixed Asian or Caucasian. Sorry if I'm getting my terms mixed up, I'm not very good at this stuff. Well seeing that Byakuya was the only Asian man on board, wouldn't his genes be really narrowed down by that time? Like they would be 0.00000000001 Asian by that time. or something. Anyways, even though Now seeing the ED credit visuals makes me sadder, when Senku wakes up knowing his father isn't there anymore. |

| This just suddenly got way better xD |
 |
| Of course! Astronauts would've been our saviors! I completely forgot about the ISS and what would've happen to them once communication from Earth is gone. |
| “What do you do when there is an evil you cannot defeat by just means? Do you stain your hands with evil to destroy evil? Or do you remain steadfastly just and righteous even if it means surrendering to evil?” ― Lelouch Vi Britannia |
| Interesting, looking forward to how the space crew gets back to earth. I find it ridiculous how blond hottie looks exactly like a grown up Ruri and Kohaku, i know they need to tell you where they come from but after so many years like, come on. Tbh i also can't help notice how bad animation and character design can be, barely any movement or detail in anything, i've been thinking about dropping this for now and continue on the manga as Boichi's art can actually be pretty detailed, kinda like Vinland Saga which is better than this but still lesser than Yukimura's work, i could come back after checking out the original work. |
| I really waited to see this animated. This part of story is beautiful and tragic at the same time. Wait till you will learn more about those astronauts' life after the petrification disaster. Song sang by Lilian was really good and fit the mood. Byakuya's personality also corresponded with how I imagined him to be and sound like while reading the manga. |
| Magnificent episode and there is a lot of revelation! |
| Loved it! This series continues to impress me! |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
Dominator-IV said: -It's 3,700 years ago, not 2 million years. -The 6 survivors give birth 3 children, which then breed with each other until we have this Village. inbred defects would never happen especially that 2 of the 6 survivors were Doctors. The next episode tackles on the establishment of the village. -6 survivors making a village is nothing to scoff off when you have 2 existing theory of population expansion and 1 real life era. First would be Adams and Eve (that's only 2 people) The second is the entire life descended from a single cell. Lastly is our real life Mongolian Conqueror Genghis Khan (he had sex with many women that we currently have 16 million people today being descended from him). -There's a certain reason why the Village cannot expand too much. But this reason is too much spoiler as that would involve new characters and inventions there. 1. I suggest you take a look at real world history in relation to genetics of inbreeding. At what inbreeding caused to happen in the royal families of Europe, for example. Hint: inbreeding caused their dna to deteriorate due to harmful mutations and genetical defeciences, normally recessive and thus prevemted from manifesting by the normal dominant gene, to come into the state where both genes in a given pair are recessive and thus manifest much more often. The result of it? Blue blood illness, for example, that quickly became characteristic of royal lines. And those lines had a MUCH bigger breeding stock than 6 people and yet, for those harmful factors to accumulate and manifest it only took a few centuries (not thousands of years!) . So what this show suggests is absolutely ridiculous. 2. Please do not mix science and religion (Adam and Eve). You can argue only one or the other, because those two are mutually exclusive, and no science will ever take seriously the statement that there were only 2 people in the beginning. |

| Loved this episode ! |
Dominator-IV said: Even if it's less of a problem, it's still a fatal problem in the long run due to so few people and so much time. I just wish the authors didn't throw in something so far out there without making even a half-assed attempt to remedy it that it apparently even caused major controversy in the fandom (until now the show at least tried to make its science believable...). I mean, there were many ways to make it more acceptable and I would've bought most of them; off the top of my head, the authors could, for example, have the astronauts find a sizable enough group of survivors who, somehow or other, were unaffected by the petrification phenomenon, or they could be somehow visibly affected when they were up there or coming down in a way that altered their dna to make it immune to harmful mutations, I don't know, anything could've done, really, so long as that effort had been made, but the fact is it hadn't, and expecting anyone who at least attended biology at school (let alone studied genetics in any depth after that) to buy 6 people -> 39 perfectly healthy people 3,000+ later is just a plain undisguised insult.Inbreeding can be less a problem if you have a diversity of gene pool, which the astronauts actually are (it consists of 3 Russians, 1 Chinese, 1 Japanese, and 1 American). This is unlike the European royalties where they breed with their relatives or those with identical DNA structure. Also there's a luck for the inbreeding effects to not happen. This would be the luck side for Byakuya for his generational descendants to keep being alive (even on the terrible situation they have). On the related note, the anime showed fewer people presented on generational descendants until Ruri's Era, than the manga does. |

| We finally got a bit of truth about where the villagers came from! I really like Byakuya Ishigami. He’s a really fun character. Too bad the fun times didn’t last that long. |
 |
| Pretty amazing discovery, this far, the entire village are Senku’s relatives then. Or something strange was over the planet that distorted the light when petrification happened, or it was just a spacial effect, maybe it was the sun behind. |

chair-sama said: This anime has terrible voice actors. I'm glad someone feels the same way! Byakuya's voice was especially weird in this episode. |
mrboko1234 said: absolutely loved the scenes in space, this might be my favorite episode atmosphere wise... ba dum tss pun not inteded epic my dude hahaha. felt the same way too. |
| Objectivity doesn't exist. Subjectivity is an excuse. Beautiful world of online discourse. |
| To all the people saying inbreeding couldn't work you're quite mistaken. While it is true that inbreeding increases the random odds of carrying down genetic diseases in cases they are present due to the increased chance of both parents being a carrier, if the genetic diseases genes are not present there is no disease to carry down. On a side note I should also mention being related doesn't create more mutations than what already occurs without inbreeding and because we don't live in a society that lacks genetic science we are fully capable of screening for genetic disease potential so people shouldn't have such strong hangups about inbreeding in cases genetic screenings are done and this actually is less likely to carry a genetic illness as a non related coupling that doesn't do a genetic screening before having a child. Since in this case such a small number of people it's very believable for them all to be free of genetic diseases they could pass down. However there is one other problem lack of genetic diversity has which is vulnerability of everyone being wiped out by the same virus or bacteria but it's fully possible that due to the small population size a disease that can effect humans and for it to be deadly is avoidable with good luck. The ideal is 160 people to start and 80 at a minimum with strickt rules on how to reproduce and with who. |

| all this backstory dump is making my penis erect. I hope we get to know what caused the calamity before the season ends. |

| This one was a shocker. It made me want to see Senku somehow advancing, so far that he's able to go to space, he just has to, not only is it great to highlight the symbolism we got to see so far from his father, but also as a payback, a savepoint for humanity that says, we were here before, and here we are again. It seems that there are a lot of familiar faces on the crew, 3 men and 3 women, enough to start off from the ground up I guess. Although, I wonder why even 6 intelligent astronauts couldn't build up an intelligent civilization a highschooler is probably going to score the jackpot. We need to know the cause of the purification for now. I wonder what are the odds of their being other astronaut crews that happened to be away at that exact time, maybe also come up with the same conclusion heading back to earth a,n starting over. It would be very interesting. |
| So, humans survived because 6 of them were just in space at the same. And people of the village are descendants of those 6. I figured this would be the scenario. |

| Really surprised by this twist, it was really nice to see how all fights together. |
 |
| I fucking love this episode. The backstory is great. The more I learn about Senku the more I like him. |
| observing a woman's body |
| We get a look at Senku's dad's past! These astronauts definitely had something to do with the village's prosperity lel |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| This anime is scary-good. So much thought went into making it. I can't be anything but massively impressed. |
| I guess the next episode will be one big orgy. |
