Dr. Stone: Science Future

Having resolved the crisis in the Petrification Kingdom, Senkuu and his companions gear up to deal directly with the mastermind behind the petrification phenomenon—who supposedly resides on the moon. The ambitious spaceship project, however, requires immense manpower and critical resources scattered across the world. Thus, the Kingdom of Science exploration team kick-starts its transcontinental journey on the ship Perseus to gather them all.

Equipped with modern technology and bolstered by the new, capable members in their ranks, the exploration team feels confident about setting sail to their first destination: America. They soon realize that the region now hosts adversaries controlling the resources they need, doing so with scientific technology which rivals and even exceeds their own. In a battle of science versus science, Senkuu and his team must outsmart their rivals if they are to have any chance of ensuring the continued survival and rejuvenation of humanity.

This season of Dr. Stone feels different from what we have seen before, but that makes sense since the story keeps progressing in terms of technologies and plot. Senku & friends travel to another continent, America, where they are met with people who have been depetrified. Unfortunately, those people have their own agenda and don't welcome strangers who would only interfere with their objectives. They will launch attacks on our protagonists and a battle between scientists ensues.

The reason Dr. Stone: Science Future feels different is because, to me, it feels like there is less sciences than the previous seasons. At least, not the same sciences ... as we have seen previously. The characters have to survive and defend themselves against technologies they don't yet have. The dynamic of this season is different but it is still as good. A little change is great when it makes sense, which it does here.

That said, this season of Dr. Stone is still as funny as the other ones. I'd even say Senku gets crazier and crazier (in a good Senku way). He always surprises us with his choices and will never give up, no matter what happens to him. That guy loves sciences too much, and he will prove he can and will win.

The plot with Why-man has not been addressed or mentioned in this season but it did not bother me because this is a step they needed to take in order to get closer to that mysterious person. It does not feel like filler as it has a purpose and they need it to be able to make their plan work and to keep progressing and moving forward.

All in all, it was a great season, with lots of funny moments, lots of action, and a few plot twists that were amazing. It gathered everything I loved from the previous seasons, and I had an incredible time. In fact, I had so much fun that it felt like the episodes were shorter. I was not bored once. So, for everything I've just mentioned, it deserves a 10 out of 10.

Thank you, Senku! Sciences is elegant.

Mixed Feelings

**spoiler free brief summary**

Story
This season didn’t fail to be entertaining, but it also didn’t live up to the bar set by the first season. On one hand, it does a good job of sticking to scientific principles, but on the other hand it cuts corners on how those breakthroughs actually come together. Because of this, the story doesn’t always add up with the events on screen. Over time, I started to lose track of what was happening, and that made me less invested in the unfolding plot.

The show leans harder into a kind of over-the-top thriller, where the setups are extreme and the solutions have ... to be equally overblown. That’s a shame, because the core ideas are genuinely interesting. They just get buried under pacing issues and missed opportunities.

Characters
The characters are caricatures, with exaggerated traits, but honestly that’s exactly what this anime needs. Their personalities have the power to keep things fun and engaging moment to moment, especially when the story itself struggles. They are the main reason this season stays entertaining.

Animation
The animation is fluid when it’s there, but there’s not enough of it. What’s missing are the small, detailed sequences of building and assembling, the kind of moments that made the first season shine. Too often, it feels like the show skips ahead and just presents the final result rather than showing the process.

Music
I’ve always loved the Dr. Stone themes, and this season has tracks that are enjoyable even on their own. The only downside is that the music isn’t always used when it matters most. It feels like a missed chance to amplify the drama and emotion.

Final Thoughts
It might sound like I’m harsh on this season, but I don’t dislike it. Dr. Stone: Science Future is still entertaining, mainly thanks to its cast, who carry the show. The real issues lie in the pacing and the lack of those extra animation touches that make the science come alive. Compared to the first season, it doesn’t quite measure up. For me, that leaves this season sitting in the middle. I enjoyed parts of it, but overall, my feelings are mixed.

First of all: Why did this show suddenly become fcking racist. Why do all of the 3 new black characters wear collars, while their white boss wants to rule over the world????
Second of all: It's not like Ginrou was already stupid as fuck and annoying as hell, and by far the worst thing in this show, why did we need to get 2nd Ginrou and third Ginrou? (Carlos and Max). Spineless, one dimensional simps with absolutely no redeeming qualities, no character and no importance for the show?


Now the real review:

I really would give this a better score, but I simply cant.
Spoiler: If you already dislike ... the usual bad characters, this season will get much worse for you.

Dr. Stone started off great in Season 1, and fell off since. The biggest problem is just some weak characters, and them getting worse and worse with time.

I never will understand people that like characters like Ginrou, or Zenitsu or other crybabies that add literally nothing to the story, are plain embarrasing, waste screentime, are grating to the ears and straight up make everything worse for the main cast all the time.



Not enough, somehow half the cast in Science Future used evolution in the wrong direction, and can only communicate by screaming like fcking idiots.
Taiju, Ryusui and Chrome, they all hurt my ears. Luna, Magma and You arent much better, but at least they are somewhat bearable. Even Suika was painful to listen to in the end, I didnt like her Voice in the first season, but after so many episodes, it gets annoying


Also, the writing just got worse and worse. The problem with writing very smart characters is that if the story writer gets to tired to think, everything just gets shit as well.

Half of the stuff happening was just so incredibly forced and made no sense if you take your time and think for more than 2 cents.

In the end, this was just disappointing. Dont get me started on the first 3 episodes of this season, each nearly made me drop the show, but I got so far, I am not stopping now.

At least the 2nd half was enjoyable, not lastly because Xeno is at least acting like a real fcking human being (well, a cruel one), allthough it annoys me that it never got explained how he got that much shit this fast with that seeming lack of manpower. I guess he didnt have to fight a stonewar or conquer an island and shit, but what he got with the people he has is still extremely unreasonable. Some things just cant be rushed.
There is also absolutely no reason or need to fight everyone else before even talking to them.

In the end the entire season gets carried by the fact that the premise of Dr. Stone still is incredibly fun and just a very good idea, they should have kept the pace a bit down and not completely abandon the science part from season for all the shounen crap that you can see in dozens of other mediocre shows.

Well, I guess it sells well and a lot of idiots will buy into it. Sad.


At least there are still some characters that are just goated and make this actually entertaining, since they are not entirely one dimensional and are actually interesting.


Francois, Tsukasa, Senku, Niki, Ukyou, Gen....

I'll watch the next season, just because I want to know how this ends, but I already am fearing for my sanity...

Edit: Some typos.
