@@WorldLie There is no plot armour for the fights at all. People lose because of their arrogance and ignorance. Science also helps the weaker character triumph over the brawny, macho character. Fights are not what the anime is about anyways so they don't really matter
“Our brains are much better at remembering stories we’ve been told than isolated facts.” Isn’t that the reason Senku’s dad & co. threw together a bunch of folktales to trick future generations into knowing important things?
The human mind’s ability to recall information is astonishing. Stories and histories can be accurately recalled from memory. As an example, one theory of the function of the quipu, the Incan bundles of knotted coloured strings, was as a memory retrieval device, something that prompted internal recollection. (Contrast with the device in front of you, which is an information retrieval device, something that gathers information external to your mind and memory.)

Dr.Stone: one of the few shounen anime where the fight scenes are still frames while the studio blows all their budget on animating cotton candy and everyone encourages it.
Ehh I'm not much of a fan of it. Makes sense for them to focus more on the details to make it look more scientifically accurate, but the sacrifice of the fight scenes and general character acting feels like it ain't worth it. Any emotional tension sorta drops for me when the fights look janky lol
@@dandyspacedandy why this anime is kinda boring to me i'm on ep 10 but i feel forced to watch this anime. i mean it's good but it's not enjoyable (sorry bad eng)

My mom, who was a doctor said that anyone who has come up with something once can come up again. Anything someone has thought of has, can, does, or will exist.
Odd Eyes94 Yeah that’s actually true. The screw was invented by the ancient Egyptians, then it vanished until it was reinvented/ rediscovered in the 16/17 century

If you deleted every fictional or religious text, they will not appear 100 years later. Because they come from the mind or minds of their authors. To write them down exactly as they were would take a miracle. But because science is based on trial and error, with a side of standardization, you can erase all scientific text and have them rewritten exactly in 100 years. Perhaps more depending on how important it is at the time, but because science is a repeatable process, it's impossible to remove unless you remove people like Chrome. People who actively search and experiment with the materials around them to discover their properties, regardless of the risk.
I'm a high school teacher and knew one student who was really passionate about math and science but didn't watch much anime. I recommended Dr.Stone to him immediately and he loved it.
Awwww how cool the opposite of my story, my high school science teacher from my old school, the one ibwas at before my current one, loved anime like me she introduced many amazing anime to me like for example Paranoia Agent and in return when Dr. STONE started airing on crunchyroll and VRV i recommend it to her and we still email each other about it. She love the crap out of the science, characters, and story
I love how Senku doesn't shy away from failure. Science is presented as failing over and over again until you can do it correctly, which is great message and works really nicely into Senku's character.
Absolutely true. At its basest most fundamental level, Science is the process of carefully recording your failures, using those recordings to adjust, and then finding a new way to fail. Rinse and repeat until you no longer fail, then note THAT down somewhere extra special, and go get to failing at something else as fast as you can
Really. As a physics major myself, I can say science is mostly a trial and error discipline. You have to constantly make mistakes, check what you did wrong and try again. And that process takes lots of time and effort. It can even get pretty frustrating at times. Most educational media shows the cool results you get, but never the hard work that goes behind it. What I really like about Dr. Stone is that it doesn't avoid showing that.
Ep 21 one of the lines was not everything is sucssesfull the first time, trial and error is how we got there, (Im parafrasing but you get it). A realy good thing to teach anyone.
I mean, the entire scientific process can be summarized in three words: "trial and error." That literally all of science, summarized in three words. The foundation upon which the entirety of modern civilization is built is contained within those words. I've always found that fascinating.
“Our brains are much better at remembering stories we’ve been told than isolated facts.” i'll have you know that i have never once forgotten that the mitochondria is the power house of the cell.
Perhaps, but I must ask you, why is the Mitochondria the power house of the cell? You probably learned that fact along with the phrase, but the fact isn't a meme.
@@Pluveus i mean, it's the powerhouse of the cell because it originally created ATP for itself, but a cell ate it, they merged and became the ancestor to all animal cells, producing ATP and heat for us. but the point is that, meme or not, the fact that so many people have remembered useless facts like that and nothing of value is an indictment on the way schooling works in most of the world.
How well would you have remembered that without the meme, though? Can you tell me how many moons Jupiter has, for example, or anything else you learned in high school?
@@christiancasaverdepertica1802 i believe it's 36. i did a project on jupiter in junior high though, and one on galileo in elementary, so i have an advantage.
@@christiancasaverdepertica1802 I can't tell you how many moons Jupiter has (I think it is 7) i didnt ever have an astronomy class at least ot in high school that was more elementary school. Though I know titan is jupiters biggest moon, not a thing I learned in school though. Aside from all the mathematics and physics I remember because I use them every day (studying for engineering). Something that I was force to do in high school that I still remember is memorize the first 20 elements of the periodic table.
Hey, an archaeologist here! One other thing that I like about the show, beyond the science, is the archaeology themes! There aren't a whole lot and some are... not always presented in the best, most accurate manner, but its really cool to see them talk about stone tools and more simple technologies as the building blocks for scientific advancement! I can tell that the author really put in a lot of research into the archaeology as well. I laughed in the scene where Senku had trouble making a chert spear point because it is NOT easy to do! I really like how the show doesn't make all the things that Senku and crew does look easy or quick at all, which is super interesting because you can really see the hard work that goes into creating these things. Overall, I'm just having a great time with the show!
i also liked the fact that they didnt rush through everything! it took a realistic amount of time to get where they are now, instead of something like a month.
Knapping definitely takes some skill. Once you recognize that the humans of primitive times must’ve had great skills like this you realize the unity of humanity stretching across time and around the world.
@@anartist3005 Yes it's very cool! Finding things like spear/arrow points is very cool, just knowing that you're holding something that someone put a lot of work into and perhaps used to hunt!
I love senku, he is extremely smart, but doesn't fall into the 'depressed cause he is so smart' trope. I just love how he acts so mature but also dies things that are so.... teenager, like how he thinks his dad is kinda lame and cringy. I also absolutely loved the emotional scenes. Ugh, dr stone is just too good.
He’s just so super passionate about science and I love that about him as a character. His works don’t have a plot armor either unlike others were he’s magically gifted at first try’s.
@@justme7410 in a sense he still has plot armour, he doesn’t suffer much from common chemistry problems like having a low yield, interfering impurities or excess reagents that are hard to get rid of, or slow reaction speed… but then again this wouldn’t make for a very interesting story if it happens too much haha
Yeah He Doesn’t Allow Himself To Get Sentimental Or Soft At All 😂 He’s Relentlessly Motivated Its Inspiring Af Tbh Especially Because He Isn’t Some Overpowered Magic God
@@therealslimshawty1854 He can be a bit arrogant. But at the end of the day he is a teenager. Behind all his bravado and the hyper logical persona he presents, he still can't bring himself to kill an enemy because of course he can't, he is just a high school kid.
When Senku tells Kohaku that her carrying hot water for her sister’s baths for years actually did help keep her sister alive I broke down in tears. I hadn’t realized I was attached to the characters until that moment.
The problem isn't how it works, it's how you take all the parts that make up a cell-phone and turn them into a cell-phone without it blowing itself up or not working. I'm betting that in the later stages, if this was more realistic, each new development would need a whole trial-and-error arc.
haha i did this when my parents told me to stop watching anime cause i watch too much and they were just like that they said how do you know this i said from watching anime and they said oh well then continue and don't mind us
For all the fun stuff in Dr Stone one of my favourite little things about it is the sense of *hope* it always has. There's this real optimism about the world and science. How, even if the worst comes to the worst and Senku is killed, there'll eventually be another person like Chrome who is so curious about the world and everything in it that they'll rediscover science by themselves. It'll take time, sure, but no matter what happens humanity *will* rebuild. It's so refreshing at a time when most other media seems to be reflecting a bleak or gritty outlook on life.
Yeah I honestly love that too. Too me, Dr stone is a celebration of humanities advancement so characters like Senku and Chrome are very easy to root for and love. It's also why Tsukasa is a great foil since he can only see all of humanities failures and wants to start over. Every step they take in their scientific creations always fills me with glee and excitement and the emotional pay off is always great.
Tsukasa claims technology has killed, but will kill to deny it in the new age. Unlike the protagonist, he *accepts* the faults of his way. Constricting security, or dangerous freedom?
@@Irn0x Yes. It's funny, because he doesn't realize he's trying to prevent exactly what he's doing. Achieving what he wants can only be done with a leap of faith. Which is what the protagonist is doing.
Yup. It sure is I wrote and recorded the intro last night after spending a long time trying to figure out how to start the video, and my mind just went to 10,000. Sorry I didn't catch the mistake.
Jesse Woodruff eh, feel like 3700 is a bit more immersive because it’d feel weird to just coincidentally wake up on a round number like that, and 3700 sounds like an estimation more than 10,000
As someone who pursued Science and failed. I love how honest about Science the show is. Science is hardwork, slow, full of constant failures and requires passion and persistence. So much of the things that inspired my interest in science did not stress this, and I went to college for something that I don't have the temperament for. Science is wonderful, and I wish i had the temperament for it, but i think its important to be honest about the negatives and positives of a career, and Dr. Stone shows both sides beautifully
The only times a singular person has an easy time with science is when they are explicitly a craftsman. Glass blowing and sword making do have a simple principle behind them, it just takes a lot of skill to properly execute on it. And a craftsman of the stone age certainly would understand how to execute on them once he knows the proper process.
I feel you. I remember trying to delve into computer programming. I liked the creative aspect of it, but in between classes, I'd see students excitedly talking with each other about the possible uses of various functions and programs, not because they had to, but because they were so passionate about it. After struggling with coding, it soon became clear that I lacked the passion for it that they all had, and sought a different path.
True. It took me 6 months to grow about 2cm of a specific type of roots on a medicinal plant while my other classmate is growing piles of Petri dishes of bacteria in a week. I got so few results that I had to include my supervisor's previous results of the same project to fill up my graduation thesis.
One thing I like is finally characters who need glasses that- while they clearly do have their struggles and obviously NEED glasses- aren't like played off as being blind as shit without out them. I.e aren't the stereo typical 'oh no I dropped my glasses and my eyesight is so bad I can't see where they were dropped.'
(SPOILERS) What I love is that the two characters we have so far who need glasses aren't related. It would've been so easy to say that Suika is Kinro's little sister and that poor eyesight runs in the family, but as far as we know, they aren't blood relatives at all. I love this because it all but explicitly states that eyesight problems are far more common than people think and that you don't have to be related to someone with the "fuzzy disease" to have it yourself.
@@greenxmango8049 I mean that most people on earth are technically related, but pretty much aren't. Also, in the show, Senku literally says, "no one's really related after thtt much time".
One of my favorite aspects of Dr. Stone is how many of the "heroes" would pretty much be straight-up villains in almost any other series. Senku is a classic example. Everything, from his design, to his mannerisms downright screams "I'm an evil mad scientist!" He's go that superior sneer down pat, and his laughter is downright maniacal. Yet, at the same time, he's also a genuinely heroic individual. Then there's Gen, a master of lies and deception, who also rocks a downright villainous appearance, but winds up a staunch ally of Senku's. Later arcs not yet animated (spoilers) give us the likes of Ryusui, the greediest man in the world who, nonetheless, is portrayed in a wholly heroic light, with his greed being displayed as a genuine asset, and not the flaw a character in nearly any other anime would need to overcome. While you comment on how Senku's goal of saving all of humanity is centered around his selfishness, much of that seeming selfishness is actually a smokescreen to hide Senku's more altruistic side. The classic example is that, even though he knew it was gonna get him killed, he still, rather quickly, opted to spill the secret of the revival formula to Tsukasa, when Yuzuriha's life was in the balance, something Tsukasa understands and exploits. It shows that, deep down, beneath his stated interest in restoring society to a point where he can make it into space, Senku actually cares quite deeply about people, and his desire to revive everyone is as much a matter of principle as it is about fulfilling his own desires.
"While you comment on how Senku's goal of saving all of humanity is centered around his selfishness, much of that seeming selfishness is actually a smokescreen to hide Senku's more altruistic side." The second part of his father's life showed without a doubt where he gets it, that's if you haven't already noticed from his father selling his car to give his adopted son the tools he needed!
@@liamnehren1054 Senku recognizes how much his father gave up to keep his selfish interests afloat, and Senku did not hesitate to then repay that, despite only being a child. This is basically proven when Byakuya, when going to board the rocket to space, states that he doesn't expect Senku to be watching, yet Senku is. And as the story continues on, Senku realizes further and further just how much Byakuya did for him, even when separated by 3,700 years.
My favorite moment in this show is how Senku got introduced. He is clearly a butt with a head big enough for his brain, but he had enough confidence in his friend to know that guy wouldn't drink a love potion but to also be the one most confident in that friend to not need that potion if it was real
Personally the thing I like best is how incredibly optimistic the series is. It says “look at all these awesome things people have made to make their lives better, let’s bring them back”
Anyone wants to talk about Science relating to this Anime? Vaccuumpump was badly epxlained and some stuff is sometimes outright skipped, soooooo lets talk. Plastic: Copper, Coal, Charcoal and Beehive?
I mean, while they call soup "Doctor Stone", Doctor Stone probably refers to either Senku or the petrification, possibly both. I believe the petrification was directly called Doctor Stone, and one character stated to the effect that they were not "a stone doctor", implying that Senku (and to a lesser extent, Chrome) were.
The great thing about senku's character is that he's actually a really great guy, and the mad scientist manipulative ploter part of him is only secondary.. he is hiding his genuine kind nature and pretending its just «for strategy» when he cares about his friends more than about any kind of science. Spoiler for the last episode of the anime! When he gives homura cotton candy, he just pretends it is to distract her attention, in fact, like ruri says, it's just to share his proud accomplishement to a lonely girl.
It doesn't matter what a person does, or their reasons for doing it. All that matters is how emotionally unstable people might interpret them. There's plenty of evidence of this if you've been paying even a little bit of attention to the public discourse over the past while.
@@davepatois297 Too many people care about feelings rather than facts. That means that it doesn't matter whether someone is a good person. For the purposes of describing whether someone is good or bad, the only thing that matters are the feelings of the speaker, not the facts of the situation.
My favorite fantasy stories are the ones where the mechanics and fantasy elements are finely explained and blend with each other to create a realistic-looking puzzle, where each fascinating element has its purpose. This might sound stupid, but Dr. Stone made me realize that the best fantasy world... is the one based purely on the mechanics of OUR world. Science is basically the most coherent and well-explained magic.
Yeah, I absolutely hear you, but at the same time, you can´t exactly call it fantasy if it is based purely on the mechanics of the real world. At "best," you could call that hard sci-fi. To create a fantasy, you must introduce fantastical elements that do not, and usually could not possibly exist in our universe (at least to the best of our knowledge).
I live in a town and region famous for its glasswork. I loved the ep when they made glass because it was so beautiful and accurate. The melted glass acted just the way it does in real life and it made me so happy to see. It was obvious that the team had researched the topic well and gotten some hands on experience. I blew glass for the first time when I was 5 years old (with assistance of course) and I have watched the glassworkers blow glass hundreds upon hundreds hours, and it still mesmerize me to this day. If any of you ever have an opportunity to see it for yourself, do it! The skill and craftmanship is amazing.
I also had tears in my eyes once Suika was able to see through the glasses Senku made for her. That was a very heartwarming and sweet moment. Suika is adorable and Kohaku is definitely best girl.
I have actually done a crap load of research into actual scientific processes just because watching this anime made me curious of how they are doing things and if it is realistic or it can actually be done as it is shown the anime. Which has actually imparted more knowledge into me than my science classes in school and I am actually retaining the information because I am invested in the story. lol
That's called 'tangential learning', and is the absolute crown jewel of edutainment, and really education in general because you don't even retain a *FRACTION* of what you're told, compared to what you seek out of curiosity
@Al3xh413 Besides going insane? 99,99% of people would go insane after a minute. Its horrrifying to even think about it....Its like beeing burried alive...just...not dying.
Thats true, what really makes it fun for me is the fact that when you already know about everything senku is talking about, its more fun that way and makes the series relatable in a way. I love to build things and many thing senku builds are those that i myself jave made or atleast tried in the past which makes it even more fun to watch.
I actually disagree a bit with your statement that Senku only helps people because it is the fastest way to get them on his side. I think he wants people to think that, but there are plenty of moments that show he really does care about his friends. Things like when he take Suika to the sunflower field and making Gen the bottle of cola. Also, everyone knows Kohaku is only second, Ginro is true best girl.
I agree with you, but THOSE two moments as examples? Really? He made Suika glasses (and then took her to the field to test them out) to “increase her labor potential.” He literally says that the next scene. Also, they need to make glass anyway and making a lens is great practice. He makes Gen a bottle of cola to get Gen in his side. That was the whole point o the deal. A much better example would be him risking himself for Yuzuriha giving Homura cotton candy.
@@Elliephant_ he didn't have to take her to a beautiful flower field to test the glasses... and he also says that Gen was already basically on their side, he didn't need to make the cola at that point
The author has admitted that he did it because it's a gray area to begin with. After all, no one has or will ever do research into how many people are required to have a diverse enough genepool to continue existing without genetic defects from inbreeding by actually putting an amount of people in an isolated area and having them fuck.
Yeah, there are some contrivances that are required for the premise to work. Like how every mineral and natural resource they need, from coal, to copper, to gold, to sulfur, to tungsten, can be found within a few days' hike of this one village.
@@FightingDuskstalker Japan has those areas, just not in enough quantity. Though tungsten specifically was certainly a lucky find. With a blank 3,700 years of no human involvement. As pointed out later, lot of crazy things can happen during that time.
FightingDuskstalker a lot of those natural resources except tungsten are quite easy to acquire. Gold was found and used all over the world for thousands of years, from jewelry to intricate art and decor. Tungsten is the hardest thing to believe they found so easily, but if this show takes place in Japan, then it’s quite possible seeing as how much Japan has. Beaches with sand and minerals to snowy volcanos with deep caverns and mines.
As a science student I haven't been this hyped with an anime since HxH , I study chemistry and I can affirm as long as I know what they do in the show really work and it has saved me with my homework once or twice( chemists are obsessed with making soap for some reason 😂). Saponification is a really important type of reaction for anyone that is getting into chemistry so take ur notes kids because it might save u one day too 😜
I really love Dr. Stone because I'm a Materials Science Engineering major, and I've studied/actually researched most of the materials and concepts the show introduces! For example, the "Miracle fluid" used to revive people is specifically Nital, and I actually use Nital etch to examine microscopic grain boundaries in metal samples in my lab! And the show specifically mentioned its use in exposing ferrite grain boundaries! (episode 1 17:20) [Ferrite is a phase of iron, or specific crystal structure that iron can adopt. It's also known as α iron, and its low carbon solubility makes it very important when you make steel, which requires dissolving carbon into iron!] It's just really exciting to see all the little things that I've devoted my studies/career to being given the limelight, you know? Most of the time, 'what something's made of' just gets kind of hand-waved over, but this series really takes the time to explore and justify all the little parts of its world and our own!
@@doddyalexander1 Actually, that part of it is also pretty interesting! Since there's nitric acid within nital, it can react with non-metals! Whenever anyone does any nital etching, it's necessary to wear gloves, a face shield, and other protective equipment, because the etch is just as good at dissolving away organic material as it is at dissolving metals. Since the 'stone' seems to be formed by and from the human body, everything in it is probably also vulnerable to chemical attack by the nital solvent! Since humans are mostly oxygen and carbon, the 'stone' is probably mostly carbon, albeit in a different chemical or microstructural configuration than the organic molecules found in the human body! Nitric acid can react with carbon to form carbon dioxide in the following reaction: C + 4 HNO3 → CO2 + 4 NO2 + 2 H2O If the show was going for 100% realism, they'd animate in some bubbles of escaping carbon dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, but it's still pretty cool!
I found everything great *except* for the fact that they got the magnetic poles *wrong* when Senku and gang made that lighting magnet. The way it was wired, it's poles should have been on the ends and not on the sides as the anime shows. Also during that Krome(?) vs. Magma fight, I thought Krome would use the *concave* lens to light a fire and I was ready to lose my shit and drop this anime. But thankfully I was wrong and Senku pointed it out.
My favorite thing about Dr. Stone is that they actually logically explain everything that is pretty much headcanon for most other anime; *For example they used the word "Meme" in one of the most recent episodes but they actually explained why the characters would know that word despite the petrification.* Of course, they actually use real science as well.
If I remember rightly it doesn't directly translate as "meme" and it would be more faithfully described as a word for like a Japanese specific "straight man" comedy routine.
I definitely cried during episode 24 and just now (because of this video) I rewatched the "Suika gets glasses" scene again and, sure enough, it also made me cry. This series has absolutely beautiful moments.
The biggest thing in Dr. Stone imo it's how Science is represented. Apart from the issue of "trail and error" (already quoted by someone else) there is this clear explanation of how Senku can do all these things because he know them, not because he is just a genius. Being a genius is a thing for sure, but it doesn't make you magically learn all the knowledge of mankind randomly. And I LOVE the fact that this is clearly shown in the backstory of lil' Senku being encouranged and supported by his dad, who is, after all, another man of science. Said so, I see the point about showing the modern world as too positive but... yeah, that's the issue. It is INCREDIBLY positive compared to how our ancestors lived. There is absolutely no good reason to want to get back to bashing animals with a pointy stick to get food unless you are someone like Tsukasa. We live in an incredible time for mankind where progress keeps on going faster and faster due to the infrastructures and resources we can use. It took the entire human history to develop a steam engine and some time later, in less than 70 years, we went from the first plane to being capable of leaving this planet and reach the Moon. Another half of century and we have a stable base in space and the project of connecting computers around universities became the enormous Internet we know today. But we aren't special, we just happen to live in these conditions. We are like dwarves sitting on a mountain of books left by other dwarves, writing even more books for the dwarves of the future, that with our effort will be capable of going higher than us. If we arrived at this with 200 years of time, who can say what we can accomplish in the next 200 years? I have lots of possible critics to give about our modern world, but this doesn't change the fact that on the scientific side of things we are going always towards a greater future for our species. If we can avoid politics and economical interests to fuck up the world before we can do way more than going to space. Senku is the human personification of this method, this knowledge and this ideal.
I am ten billion percent with you when it comes to Suika seeing for the first time. I literally cannot watch either the moment she gets her glasses or the one where Senku tells her about them without crying my eyes out, and I've already rewatched the first season alone 5 times. Also, Dr Stone has in my opinion the best gag ever. Ginro's "Special Technique: Let Someone Else Handle It," is the single funniest line of dialogue I've heard in my entire life and caused me to straight up snort laugh for three minutes straight, and I've not exaggerating at all.
In a time where science denial and cult-like anti-intellectualism is at an all time high, a show like Dr. Stone is worth more than it's weight in gold.
@Danny BRITZMAN It is, yes. The obsession with IQ and other faux/useless measures of knowledge are as much a byproduct of the anti-intellectual thread as the coal rollers, anti-vaxxers, and young earthers. It's all placebo intended to treat the same lack of careful thought and curiosity about the world.
@@SinHurr Flat earthers have more of a grip on science than you blind cultiTards.... some of them at least try to figure things out... most of you tards cant even entertain the thought of youre beliefs being wrong.... and they are mostly just beliefs
As someone who has had a lifelong passion for science and is planning to become a professional physicist, one of the coolest parts of the series to me is that I already know so much of the science that it's plausible that if I didn't have other hobbies distracting me, I could have learned all of the stuff Senku knows by that age. I feel like some of the potential message of the show is lost by Senku being a super-genius, since so much of this stuff is within reach even for normal people if they put in the same sort of effort he did.
It's certainly possible to have a very broad understanding of science, it's certainly possible to have a very detailed understanding in a few narrow fields but that broad AND detailed at 17? I don't think the average person could pull that off no matter how hard they tried, I don't know if anyone could. The "How To Make Anything" channel took 6 months to get to the stage where they could make a sandwich using stone age tech and they almost certainly did research, consulted with experts as they went etc and still "cheated" with some of it. That would be many orders of magnitude easier than say creating penicillin with only a bunch of stone age illiterates to help.
@@bloodypommelstudios7144 even if you know formulas and theoratical knowledge doesn't necessarily mean you can make those things practically. Like scientists vs engineers vs technicians.
@@bloodypommelstudios7144 I defiantly agree with you. I can use myself as an example. I've personally never met anyone with a broader understanding of science and engineering than myself. I know the high level and specifics of a lot of the things and it covers everything Senku has done thus far. Still much of what he has done I don't have enough detailed knowledge for, such as the chemistry. I understand all of the important components and processes of chemistry and have many diffrent reactions memorized but there are literaly millions of them and senku has them all. I cant even compare to that. "How To Make Anything" is taking the long way mind you; great reference anyways. However, they are advancing through technology as it was invented rather than taking the fastest path to modern times if you had all the knowledge necessary. The biggest leap in Dr. Stone besides Senku himself is the availability of the raw materials. Even if the amount of manpower actually needed is understated its addressed as a constant concern and roadblock which gives it a pass in my book.
I love senku as an MC. He’s so tangible for me because I honestly operate in much the same way. I’m nice to people and make friends and help people, not because I have some overwhelming drive to or because I’m just an absolute angel, but because it benefits all of us and I’m willing to work with others and make everyone around me happy to achieve greater goals. Does it make me shallow? No, i just have a more logical approach to things and that’s perfectly ok. I also love how he didn’t go the opposite route of evil genius with literally no emotion or regard for others because again, there’s no benefit to being a callous asshole. Being helpful and nice benefits everyone and even the most intelligent geniuses are human; they make mistakes and can only get so far without the help of others.
even when he's callous he is only so to make sure their hopes don't get artificially raised and the moment things go well or a positive truth comes out he makes sure they know so as to cheer them up.
@@liamnehren1054 Though he also hides secrets in order to also keep up morale. Such as all the effort to make a single cell phone and then Kohaku reminding everyone that they have to make a second one for it to be any use.
i agree, i honestly cant fathom people who help just coz its the right thing to do. like, even if someone says that to me, my brain instantly tells me that they are doing it because there is something about it that gives them a dopamine boost, so whilst they're sitting on their moral high ground as a good person, their actually just doing it to make them feel pleasure. even if thats not the case. then you get more straightfoward people like senku, who helps people for a much more obvious reason. my main reason for helping people is because they are either getting something wrong and it is annoyig me to no end, to get them to stop pestering me for help, or because i dont like people being sad around me coz it has the nockon effect of making me feel sad. but that doesnt make people who work and think like this any less good than people who just do it "because its right". they just aim for different benefits than pleasure, or a confidence boost that they are in fact worth it. or at least thats how i see it anyway.
As a guy with eye problems and a dangerous hang up on space and science... This anime is the one that has made me cry the most. It hits WAY to close to my heart, personal experiences and struggles.
Yeah I just wished he didn't pass up great shows like Bookworm or Vinland Saga to name a few. These past 3 seasons have been fire and a half and he missed out.
You know that moment when Senku asked Chrome if he was afraid of the dark, and then very epically "defeated darkness with the power of science"? Yeah, that's my favorite anime moment of the year. Yes, I liked it even more than (or at least equally as much as) episode 19 of Kimetsu no Yaiba
What I really love about Dr. Stone is 1. Reactions. When Senku said he'll reeinvent something, the 21st century people will say "YOU CAN DO THAT NOW?" and 38th century people will say "WTF IS THAT?" They're surprisingly not boring even though it's repeated quite often. Not to mention Ryusui is the only one who's excited instead of questioning it lol 2. Emotional moments. Things as simple as Suika getting glasses, first artificial light, Gen drinking cola to heavily sad Byakuya's story and more, are well executed 3. Yuzuriha best girl 4. The mind game during the fights is very thrilling. I think it's executed better in the manga than the anime. 5. I love Inagaki's storytelling style, which I also love when he did Eyeshield 21 the manga. Also love the theme of building civilization from scratch and tech up. It's like I'm watching/reading a story of Sid Meier's Civilization & Factorio 6. I love science 7. Did I say Yuzuriha best girl? Well, yeah she is, but Kohaku is also best girl
I think your first point doesnt get boring because I had exactly the same reaction. When Senku said he was building a cell phone, I had no idea how that would work. And I was amazed at the logic of it. Same thing for the steam engine, space food, generator, strong magnets, and the freezer. About the only invention that did not shock me was the hot air balloon because I knew how stupidly simple it would be to make. Whenever Senku said he was gonna make some modern tech, it got to the point where I would just giggle and shake my head at the impossibility of it all, much like the 21st century people did.
As a scientist I ADORE thus show, it is so wholesome and entusiastic about the scientific method T.T And I love how they take MONTHS to do anything and how they show both the theoricians and the tecnicians. I think it teaches more about science as a while than any discovery in particular.
@@avalon4352 I dont think thats it not that he couldn't more that he doesn't. He is a more straightforward person but considering just how her acts when something is on the line,(think oil with ryusi) he uses his personality against him.
@@SinHurr Senku is 10 billion percent a big softie. He congratulates Chrome and encourages Suika. He teases Kohaku and gives Gen his soda. He goes out of his way to give Homura candy floss. I'd love to see him falling for someone. Can he get any more considerate?
senku did not just want to store modern civilizaition just so he could go to space, he has shown consistently he cares a lot for his friends. The best example of this is when he agreed to tsukasa's request for the revival formula in order for yuzuriha to be saved.
8:30 I love how what he said here becomes a very important part in the story since His father told stories to their children and grandchildren, who became the primitives Senku and others found, about things that he believes would help Senku in the future. If he had told them just facts, then they might forget it, but by framing it as stories and fables, and by trusting Senku to realize the meaning behind those, his stories lasted for generations.
I think one of the most refreshing aspects of Senku as the main protagonist, and indeed one of the most important quality of science that it highlights, is the fact that he as a single person can't and doesn't do anything by himself. He realises his (very significant) limitations, recruits others, utilise their potentials, so he can collaborate with them and achieve a common goal that can ultimately benefit everyone.
i think you missed how senku's character really is. he is not a manipulative mad scientist kinda character. he is gentle and really cares for his friends and humanity, you can tell he admires what we as human kind have achieve everytime he talks about science. he's also even a bit tsundere whenever he does kind things for others and pretends he's doing it for other reasons. example: him giving cotton candy to that girl who was spying on them just cause he wanted to share candy with her.
@@yuvrajtomar7697 Yes and a way under age one to boot , but I was as a child she is still cute and that is what I'm saying and not a waifu type . However the chief's oldest daughter is a waifu type along with the pink girl.
@@yuvrajtomar7697 actually she is a child not a loli, a loli is supposed to be a female character that looks much younger than what they actually are, for example, a 30 years old that looks like a 14 years old, but suika is not that, she is just as young as she looks, in fact i would argue that she is kinda of the oposite of a loli science she acts more mature than her age in some cases. And there is no problem in saying a child is cute.

@sleepy • 16 years ago .revival fluid, pills, cellphone, car/tank, ship, morse code probally a little, revival fluid but with platinum thats all i can remember through out the series and the manga, those that i didnt listed like guns, motor, drones and more are may be little information to make to nothing to explain but build.
This show has quickly stolen the top spot of my favorite anime series. It's so much fun, and I love the characters so much. It's crazy how exciting the scientific process can be when it's presented the right way.
Dr. Stone made me appreciate science and what scientists have accomplished in a way I never had before. The scene where Senku creates light for the first time felt like such an epic moment, and there are so many scenes like that in this show that reminds you of all the amazing things that humanity has accomplished. This show makes me want to do something that helps make the world a better place and, maybe more importantly, it makes me feel like I can. Also, I learned how to move water from one container to another using a tube. Most of the stuff in Dr. Stone isn’t safe to try at home, but It was pretty cool to try be able to that out and see that it actually works.
I've been in love with Boichi's manga drawing style since 3-4 years ago when he made Sun Ken Rock, the protagonist have even the same hairstyle, soo when i saw Dr. Stone i was like "Ohh that's boichi new project"
Oh i didn’t even know about his other mangas! I’ve only recognize who Boichi is after a cameo appeared Dr. Stone from one of his other work that became an anime (Eyeshield 21)
I love how the anime isn't predictable, like- *SPOILER* -when they were making the cellphone, you would assume they would finish it like their other projects, but when they were missing an ingredient, Senku just accepts that they cant make cellphones and was willing to move on, and although they did solve the conflict, it was still amazing how they carried that problem, making you feel the disappointment as if you were making the cellphone.
I legit started watching this anime because my friend was bored one day and pulled it up to show me because he said it was "Jojo Like", and in the first two eps, it had me hooked and I went and read the manga all the way up to most current arc and now it's a manga that has me waking up on Monday morning, ready to read it along side stuff like One Piece
I can’t count how many videos I’ve seen online of people trying to remake the Cola they saw on the anime. It’s really cool that a simple anime episode can peak so many people’s curiosity on some simple cooking and chemistry :)
My single favorite part of Senku is how he knows he is smart and objectively the most important human on Earth, but he does not act like he is a god or a true know it all. He makes mistakes, all the time, and constantly comments on how a real scientist would laugh at his simple mistakes like not grasping how long 3,700 years actually is and the effect it would have on the worlds geography and the location of stars in the sky. And he actually views everyone as being important. He might talk down to Magma, but he also makes it clear that Magma is extremely important for a scientific civilization. Same thing for Taiju. He understands that without people with muscles, he cant do any R&D cause he will be to busy just surviving. And when people say Senku is as strong as a flea, he doesn't even try to deny it cause he knows it is true. He doesn't mind people making fun of his weaknesses, which is why I think he can get away with making fun of other peoples weaknesses.
Dr Stone has honestly become my favorite anime of all time, easy. I was looked from the beginning but it’s just gotten better and better every single episode. All of the characters are AMAZING, the concept is so unique, and it’s just indescribable how much I love this show. It’s amazing. I will forever love this show :D

“Our brains are much better at remembering stories we’ve been told than isolated facts.”
Isn’t that the reason Senku’s dad & co. threw together a bunch of folktales to trick future generations into knowing important things?
Historically in real life, societies passed down information through stories rather than raw facts. It's a tried-and-true method.
The show is meta as hell.
And memes. Don't forget the memes.
The human mind’s ability to recall information is astonishing. Stories and histories can be accurately recalled from memory. As an example, one theory of the function of the quipu, the Incan bundles of knotted coloured strings, was as a memory retrieval device, something that prompted internal recollection. (Contrast with the device in front of you, which is an information retrieval device, something that gathers information external to your mind and memory.)

Ehh I'm not much of a fan of it. Makes sense for them to focus more on the details to make it look more scientifically accurate, but the sacrifice of the fight scenes and general character acting feels like it ain't worth it. Any emotional tension sorta drops for me when the fights look janky lol

Chrome is a GENIUS in his own rights.
If you deleted every fictional or religious text, they will not appear 100 years later. Because they come from the mind or minds of their authors. To write them down exactly as they were would take a miracle.
But because science is based on trial and error, with a side of standardization, you can erase all scientific text and have them rewritten exactly in 100 years. Perhaps more depending on how important it is at the time, but because science is a repeatable process, it's impossible to remove unless you remove people like Chrome. People who actively search and experiment with the materials around them to discover their properties, regardless of the risk.

She love the crap out of the science, characters, and story
I love how Senku doesn't shy away from failure. Science is presented as failing over and over again until you can do it correctly, which is great message and works really nicely into Senku's character.
Absolutely true.
At its basest most fundamental level, Science is the process of carefully recording your failures, using those recordings to adjust, and then finding a new way to fail. Rinse and repeat until you no longer fail, then note THAT down somewhere extra special, and go get to failing at something else as fast as you can
Really. As a physics major myself, I can say science is mostly a trial and error discipline. You have to constantly make mistakes, check what you did wrong and try again. And that process takes lots of time and effort. It can even get pretty frustrating at times.
Most educational media shows the cool results you get, but never the hard work that goes behind it. What I really like about Dr. Stone is that it doesn't avoid showing that.
Ep 21 one of the lines was not everything is sucssesfull the first time, trial and error is how we got there, (Im parafrasing but you get it). A realy good thing to teach anyone.
That's basically what he says. Trial & error. Getting it wrong until you get it right
I mean, the entire scientific process can be summarized in three words: "trial and error." That literally all of science, summarized in three words. The foundation upon which the entirety of modern civilization is built is contained within those words. I've always found that fascinating.

Hey, an archaeologist here! One other thing that I like about the show, beyond the science, is the archaeology themes! There aren't a whole lot and some are... not always presented in the best, most accurate manner, but its really cool to see them talk about stone tools and more simple technologies as the building blocks for scientific advancement! I can tell that the author really put in a lot of research into the archaeology as well. I laughed in the scene where Senku had trouble making a chert spear point because it is NOT easy to do! I really like how the show doesn't make all the things that Senku and crew does look easy or quick at all, which is super interesting because you can really see the hard work that goes into creating these things. Overall, I'm just having a great time with the show!

For all the fun stuff in Dr Stone one of my favourite little things about it is the sense of *hope* it always has. There's this real optimism about the world and science. How, even if the worst comes to the worst and Senku is killed, there'll eventually be another person like Chrome who is so curious about the world and everything in it that they'll rediscover science by themselves. It'll take time, sure, but no matter what happens humanity *will* rebuild.
It's so refreshing at a time when most other media seems to be reflecting a bleak or gritty outlook on life.
Yeah I honestly love that too. Too me, Dr stone is a celebration of humanities advancement so characters like Senku and Chrome are very easy to root for and love. It's also why Tsukasa is a great foil since he can only see all of humanities failures and wants to start over. Every step they take in their scientific creations always fills me with glee and excitement and the emotional pay off is always great.
Exactly!!
On the other hand, Tsukasa has some GOOD points. The advancements of humanity have caused many, many deaths. "Curiosity killed the cat".
Tsukasa claims technology has killed, but will kill to deny it in the new age. Unlike the protagonist, he *accepts* the faults of his way. Constricting security, or dangerous freedom?

@@LocalContentShow I heard manga readers talking about this, but not every protagonist has to be a good person.
As someone who pursued Science and failed. I love how honest about Science the show is. Science is hardwork, slow, full of constant failures and requires passion and persistence.
So much of the things that inspired my interest in science did not stress this, and I went to college for something that I don't have the temperament for.
Science is wonderful, and I wish i had the temperament for it, but i think its important to be honest about the negatives and positives of a career, and Dr. Stone shows both sides beautifully
The only times a singular person has an easy time with science is when they are explicitly a craftsman. Glass blowing and sword making do have a simple principle behind them, it just takes a lot of skill to properly execute on it. And a craftsman of the stone age certainly would understand how to execute on them once he knows the proper process.
I feel you. I remember trying to delve into computer programming. I liked the creative aspect of it, but in between classes, I'd see students excitedly talking with each other about the possible uses of various functions and programs, not because they had to, but because they were so passionate about it.
After struggling with coding, it soon became clear that I lacked the passion for it that they all had, and sought a different path.
True. It took me 6 months to grow about 2cm of a specific type of roots on a medicinal plant while my other classmate is growing piles of Petri dishes of bacteria in a week.

What I love is that the two characters we have so far who need glasses aren't related. It would've been so easy to say that Suika is Kinro's little sister and that poor eyesight runs in the family, but as far as we know, they aren't blood relatives at all.

One of my favorite aspects of Dr. Stone is how many of the "heroes" would pretty much be straight-up villains in almost any other series. Senku is a classic example. Everything, from his design, to his mannerisms downright screams "I'm an evil mad scientist!" He's go that superior sneer down pat, and his laughter is downright maniacal. Yet, at the same time, he's also a genuinely heroic individual. Then there's Gen, a master of lies and deception, who also rocks a downright villainous appearance, but winds up a staunch ally of Senku's. Later arcs not yet animated (spoilers) give us the likes of Ryusui, the greediest man in the world who, nonetheless, is portrayed in a wholly heroic light, with his greed being displayed as a genuine asset, and not the flaw a character in nearly any other anime would need to overcome.
While you comment on how Senku's goal of saving all of humanity is centered around his selfishness, much of that seeming selfishness is actually a smokescreen to hide Senku's more altruistic side. The classic example is that, even though he knew it was gonna get him killed, he still, rather quickly, opted to spill the secret of the revival formula to Tsukasa, when Yuzuriha's life was in the balance, something Tsukasa understands and exploits. It shows that, deep down, beneath his stated interest in restoring society to a point where he can make it into space, Senku actually cares quite deeply about people, and his desire to revive everyone is as much a matter of principle as it is about fulfilling his own desires.

The second part of his father's life showed without a doubt where he gets it, that's if you haven't already noticed from his father selling his car to give his adopted son the tools he needed!
@@liamnehren1054 Senku recognizes how much his father gave up to keep his selfish interests afloat, and Senku did not hesitate to then repay that, despite only being a child.
This is basically proven when Byakuya, when going to board the rocket to space, states that he doesn't expect Senku to be watching, yet Senku is. And as the story continues on, Senku realizes further and further just how much Byakuya did for him, even when separated by 3,700 years.
My favorite moment in this show is how Senku got introduced. He is clearly a butt with a head big enough for his brain, but he had enough confidence in his friend to know that guy wouldn't drink a love potion but to also be the one most confident in that friend to not need that potion if it was real
MORE LABOR POTENTIAL!!!
Personally the thing I like best is how incredibly optimistic the series is. It says “look at all these awesome things people have made to make their lives better, let’s bring them back”
Anyone wants to talk about Science relating to this Anime? Vaccuumpump was badly epxlained and some stuff is sometimes outright skipped, soooooo lets talk. Plastic: Copper, Coal, Charcoal and Beehive?
Daily reminder that the series is name after a soap
Stay tuned for the spinoff: Shampoo, PhD
I mean, while they call soup "Doctor Stone", Doctor Stone probably refers to either Senku or the petrification, possibly both. I believe the petrification was directly called Doctor Stone, and one character stated to the effect that they were not "a stone doctor", implying that Senku (and to a lesser extent, Chrome) were.
YES!
The name can also mean “ishi ishi”
At 0:21 he had the perfect chance to say “post-historic” but he fucking blew it. God damn it
Gen is such a unique character. I love him so much
But my favorite character is the butler of ryusu
Mine was kaseki
Fun fact, unless you watch the dub or speak fluent Japanese he actually speaks Pig Latin in the respective languages.
i love gen, hes awesome
My favorite is Gen a totally Graded A Quack Mentallist and Ryusu the Greediest Ambitionist
The great thing about senku's character is that he's actually a really great guy, and the mad scientist manipulative ploter part of him is only secondary.. he is hiding his genuine kind nature and pretending its just «for strategy» when he cares about his friends more than about any kind of science.
Spoiler for the last episode of the anime!
When he gives homura cotton candy, he just pretends it is to distract her attention, in fact, like ruri says, it's just to share his proud accomplishement to a lonely girl.
It doesn't matter what a person does, or their reasons for doing it. All that matters is how emotionally unstable people might interpret them. There's plenty of evidence of this if you've been paying even a little bit of attention to the public discourse over the past while.
Yeah Senku is ultimately an idealist at his core, he just focuses on logic and rationality to achieve his ideals in reality
Just glad he isn't another Lelouch/Kira
@@Thalanox what?
@@davepatois297 Too many people care about feelings rather than facts. That means that it doesn't matter whether someone is a good person. For the purposes of describing whether someone is good or bad, the only thing that matters are the feelings of the speaker, not the facts of the situation.
My favorite fantasy stories are the ones where the mechanics and fantasy elements are finely explained and blend with each other to create a realistic-looking puzzle, where each fascinating element has its purpose.
This might sound stupid, but Dr. Stone made me realize that the best fantasy world... is the one based purely on the mechanics of OUR world.
Science is basically the most coherent and well-explained magic.
Yeah, I absolutely hear you, but at the same time, you can´t exactly call it fantasy if it is based purely on the mechanics of the real world. At "best," you could call that hard sci-fi. To create a fantasy, you must introduce fantastical elements that do not, and usually could not possibly exist in our universe (at least to the best of our knowledge).
Science is the most over convoluted and interlinked magic system of all

Lets appreciate the fact that Senku’s father introduced the concept of memes into the stone age 😂
Suika getting glasses was the moment I went from enjoying dr stone to it being one of my absolute favorites. And yes, I also cried at that moment.
adakun13 I’m the 69th like
I live in a town and region famous for its glasswork. I loved the ep when they made glass because it was so beautiful and accurate. The melted glass acted just the way it does in real life and it made me so happy to see. It was obvious that the team had researched the topic well and gotten some hands on experience.
I blew glass for the first time when I was 5 years old (with assistance of course) and I have watched the glassworkers blow glass hundreds upon hundreds hours, and it still mesmerize me to this day. If any of you ever have an opportunity to see it for yourself, do it! The skill and craftmanship is amazing.
Look for the crunchyroll video about dr. Stone, they show the animators blowing glass!
Chrome: Look at this stone it can point to north!
Everyone: Sorcery!
Senku:
I also had tears in my eyes once Suika was able to see through the glasses Senku made for her. That was a very heartwarming and sweet moment. Suika is adorable and Kohaku is definitely best girl.
Kohaku best girl hoho indeed, wait till they animate chapters 194-196, those chapters are about Suika >:)
@@rablopx those chapters made me tear up, and I usually don't tear up easily
I have actually done a crap load of research into actual scientific processes just because watching this anime made me curious of how they are doing things and if it is realistic or it can actually be done as it is shown the anime. Which has actually imparted more knowledge into me than my science classes in school and I am actually retaining the information because I am invested in the story. lol
That's called 'tangential learning', and is the absolute crown jewel of edutainment, and really education in general
because you don't even retain a *FRACTION* of what you're told, compared to what you seek out of curiosity

Dr Stone: "My work here is done... No wait don't leave! Keep watching!!"
"Attainable" he says. It's easy, just start by counting EVERY SINGLE SECOND in 3,700 years.

Thats true, what really makes it fun for me is the fact that when you already know about everything senku is talking about, its more fun that way and makes the series relatable in a way.

I actually disagree a bit with your statement that Senku only helps people because it is the fastest way to get them on his side. I think he wants people to think that, but there are plenty of moments that show he really does care about his friends. Things like when he take Suika to the sunflower field and making Gen the bottle of cola.
Also, everyone knows Kohaku is only second, Ginro is true best girl.
Fair point. Ginro does clean up pretty nice
Ginro is the most useful girl since the current arc.
I agree with you, but THOSE two moments as examples? Really?
He made Suika glasses (and then took her to the field to test them out) to “increase her labor potential.” He literally says that the next scene. Also, they need to make glass anyway and making a lens is great practice.
He makes Gen a bottle of cola to get Gen in his side. That was the whole point o the deal.
A much better example would be him risking himself for Yuzuriha giving Homura cotton candy.
@@Elliephant_ he didn't have to take her to a beautiful flower field to test the glasses...
and he also says that Gen was already basically on their side, he didn't need to make the cola at that point
VikingSchism Ok, taking Suika to a flower field was kinda nice. But you never know with Gen, he is the self-proclaimed “shallowest man in the world”
I’d argue it’s “post-historic”

Dr stone: is scientifically accurate (mostly)
Also Dr Stone: village founded by 6 people survived for 3700 years
I think the village could have actually been created a lot later by six descendants of a whole bunch of people, or the descendants of six people.
The author has admitted that he did it because it's a gray area to begin with. After all, no one has or will ever do research into how many people are required to have a diverse enough genepool to continue existing without genetic defects from inbreeding by actually putting an amount of people in an isolated area and having them fuck.
Yeah, there are some contrivances that are required for the premise to work. Like how every mineral and natural resource they need, from coal, to copper, to gold, to sulfur, to tungsten, can be found within a few days' hike of this one village.
@@FightingDuskstalker Japan has those areas, just not in enough quantity. Though tungsten specifically was certainly a lucky find. With a blank 3,700 years of no human involvement. As pointed out later, lot of crazy things can happen during that time.
FightingDuskstalker a lot of those natural resources except tungsten are quite easy to acquire. Gold was found and used all over the world for thousands of years, from jewelry to intricate art and decor. Tungsten is the hardest thing to believe they found so easily, but if this show takes place in Japan, then it’s quite possible seeing as how much Japan has. Beaches with sand and minerals to snowy volcanos with deep caverns and mines.
As a science student I haven't been this hyped with an anime since HxH , I study chemistry and I can affirm as long as I know what they do in the show really work and it has saved me with my homework once or twice( chemists are obsessed with making soap for some reason 😂).

@@randomlisteneratyourservic5158 then ur gayyy
I really love Dr. Stone because I'm a Materials Science Engineering major, and I've studied/actually researched most of the materials and concepts the show introduces!
For example, the "Miracle fluid" used to revive people is specifically Nital, and I actually use Nital etch to examine microscopic grain boundaries in metal samples in my lab! And the show specifically mentioned its use in exposing ferrite grain boundaries! (episode 1 17:20)
[Ferrite is a phase of iron, or specific crystal structure that iron can adopt. It's also known as α iron, and its low carbon solubility makes it very important when you make steel, which requires dissolving carbon into iron!]
It's just really exciting to see all the little things that I've devoted my studies/career to being given the limelight, you know?
Most of the time, 'what something's made of' just gets kind of hand-waved over, but this series really takes the time to explore and justify all the little parts of its world and our own!
Yeah but it's not for stone though... but the science when they make the swords is accurate
@@doddyalexander1 Actually, that part of it is also pretty interesting! Since there's nitric acid within nital, it can react with non-metals! Whenever anyone does any nital etching, it's necessary to wear gloves, a face shield, and other protective equipment, because the etch is just as good at dissolving away organic material as it is at dissolving metals. Since the 'stone' seems to be formed by and from the human body, everything in it is probably also vulnerable to chemical attack by the nital solvent!
Since humans are mostly oxygen and carbon, the 'stone' is probably mostly carbon, albeit in a different chemical or microstructural configuration than the organic molecules found in the human body!
Nitric acid can react with carbon to form carbon dioxide in the following reaction:
C + 4 HNO3 → CO2 + 4 NO2 + 2 H2O
If the show was going for 100% realism, they'd animate in some bubbles of escaping carbon dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, but it's still pretty cool!
Holy sht the amount of knowledge ur sharing actually inspires me to take on engineering more, very interesting
@@Sandshrew282 Thanks for sharing
I found everything great *except* for the fact that they got the magnetic poles *wrong* when Senku and gang made that lighting magnet. The way it was wired, it's poles should have been on the ends and not on the sides as the anime shows.
Also during that Krome(?) vs. Magma fight, I thought Krome would use the *concave* lens to light a fire and I was ready to lose my shit and drop this anime. But thankfully I was wrong and Senku pointed it out.
My favorite thing about Dr. Stone is that they actually logically explain everything that is pretty much headcanon for most other anime; *For example they used the word "Meme" in one of the most recent episodes but they actually explained why the characters would know that word despite the petrification.* Of course, they actually use real science as well.
Now we just have to wait for an explanation on how Suika can fit into that mask.
Other professional writers: "You don't need to explain everything."
Riichiro Inagaki: "I beg to differ."
@@lrgogo1517 lmao
I loved Gen & Senku's reaction.
"So, 'meme' made it over did it?"
"My dad was such a joke."
If I remember rightly it doesn't directly translate as "meme" and it would be more faithfully described as a word for like a Japanese specific "straight man" comedy routine.
I definitely cried during episode 24 and just now (because of this video) I rewatched the "Suika gets glasses" scene again and, sure enough, it also made me cry. This series has absolutely beautiful moments.
"Ten thousand years..."
3700. Senku counted.
He said that for people who haven't seen the show. It's kind of a big character moment to learn that Senku counted all the seconds until his revival.
@@LDIndustries then 4000 would be a more accurate rounding up. 5000 if one must stick to 5s and 10s
@@LDIndustries No he didn't. He commented that it's a mistake.
@@LDIndustries not really a character moment or spoiler since it is said in episode 1. "I just counted"
The biggest thing in Dr. Stone imo it's how Science is represented.
Apart from the issue of "trail and error" (already quoted by someone else) there is this clear explanation of how Senku can do all these things because he know them, not because he is just a genius. Being a genius is a thing for sure, but it doesn't make you magically learn all the knowledge of mankind randomly.
And I LOVE the fact that this is clearly shown in the backstory of lil' Senku being encouranged and supported by his dad, who is, after all, another man of science.
Said so, I see the point about showing the modern world as too positive but... yeah, that's the issue. It is INCREDIBLY positive compared to how our ancestors lived. There is absolutely no good reason to want to get back to bashing animals with a pointy stick to get food unless you are someone like Tsukasa.
We live in an incredible time for mankind where progress keeps on going faster and faster due to the infrastructures and resources we can use.
It took the entire human history to develop a steam engine and some time later, in less than 70 years, we went from the first plane to being capable of leaving this planet and reach the Moon. Another half of century and we have a stable base in space and the project of connecting computers around universities became the enormous Internet we know today.
But we aren't special, we just happen to live in these conditions. We are like dwarves sitting on a mountain of books left by other dwarves, writing even more books for the dwarves of the future, that with our effort will be capable of going higher than us.
If we arrived at this with 200 years of time, who can say what we can accomplish in the next 200 years?
I have lots of possible critics to give about our modern world, but this doesn't change the fact that on the scientific side of things we are going always towards a greater future for our species.
If we can avoid politics and economical interests to fuck up the world before we can do way more than going to space.
Senku is the human personification of this method, this knowledge and this ideal.
I don't know how you can just type for so long if I was typing this I would give up on like a quarter of this but you're right man
I am ten billion percent with you when it comes to Suika seeing for the first time. I literally cannot watch either the moment she gets her glasses or the one where Senku tells her about them without crying my eyes out, and I've already rewatched the first season alone 5 times.
Also, Dr Stone has in my opinion the best gag ever. Ginro's "Special Technique: Let Someone Else Handle It," is the single funniest line of dialogue I've heard in my entire life and caused me to straight up snort laugh for three minutes straight, and I've not exaggerating at all.
In a time where science denial and cult-like anti-intellectualism is at an all time high, a show like Dr. Stone is worth more than it's weight in gold.
@Danny BRITZMAN It is, yes. The obsession with IQ and other faux/useless measures of knowledge are as much a byproduct of the anti-intellectual thread as the coal rollers, anti-vaxxers, and young earthers.

As someone who has had a lifelong passion for science and is planning to become a professional physicist, one of the coolest parts of the series to me is that I already know so much of the science that it's plausible that if I didn't have other hobbies distracting me, I could have learned all of the stuff Senku knows by that age. I feel like some of the potential message of the show is lost by Senku being a super-genius, since so much of this stuff is within reach even for normal people if they put in the same sort of effort he did.
That'swhy Chrome & friends are there. Chrome is a prodigey in his own right, but needed a push in the right direction, that push coming from Senku
It's certainly possible to have a very broad understanding of science, it's certainly possible to have a very detailed understanding in a few narrow fields but that broad AND detailed at 17?
I don't think the average person could pull that off no matter how hard they tried, I don't know if anyone could.
The "How To Make Anything" channel took 6 months to get to the stage where they could make a sandwich using stone age tech and they almost certainly did research, consulted with experts as they went etc and still "cheated" with some of it. That would be many orders of magnitude easier than say creating penicillin with only a bunch of stone age illiterates to help.
@@bloodypommelstudios7144 even if you know formulas and theoratical knowledge doesn't necessarily mean you can make those things practically. Like scientists vs engineers vs technicians.
@@marcusjr80 Yeah agreed.
@@bloodypommelstudios7144 I defiantly agree with you. I can use myself as an example.
I've personally never met anyone with a broader understanding of science and engineering than myself. I know the high level and specifics of a lot of the things and it covers everything Senku has done thus far. Still much of what he has done I don't have enough detailed knowledge for, such as the chemistry.
I understand all of the important components and processes of chemistry and have many diffrent reactions memorized but there are literaly millions of them and senku has them all. I cant even compare to that.
"How To Make Anything" is taking the long way mind you; great reference anyways. However, they are advancing through technology as it was invented rather than taking the fastest path to modern times if you had all the knowledge necessary. The biggest leap in Dr. Stone besides Senku himself is the availability of the raw materials. Even if the amount of manpower actually needed is understated its addressed as a constant concern and roadblock which gives it a pass in my book.
13:32 missed opportunity, he could have said "ten billion percent"
I love senku as an MC. He’s so tangible for me because I honestly operate in much the same way. I’m nice to people and make friends and help people, not because I have some overwhelming drive to or because I’m just an absolute angel, but because it benefits all of us and I’m willing to work with others and make everyone around me happy to achieve greater goals. Does it make me shallow? No, i just have a more logical approach to things and that’s perfectly ok. I also love how he didn’t go the opposite route of evil genius with literally no emotion or regard for others because again, there’s no benefit to being a callous asshole. Being helpful and nice benefits everyone and even the most intelligent geniuses are human; they make mistakes and can only get so far without the help of others.
even when he's callous he is only so to make sure their hopes don't get artificially raised and the moment things go well or a positive truth comes out he makes sure they know so as to cheer them up.
@@liamnehren1054 Though he also hides secrets in order to also keep up morale. Such as all the effort to make a single cell phone and then Kohaku reminding everyone that they have to make a second one for it to be any use.

i agree, i honestly cant fathom people who help just coz its the right thing to do. like, even if someone says that to me, my brain instantly tells me that they are doing it because there is something about it that gives them a dopamine boost, so whilst they're sitting on their moral high ground as a good person, their actually just doing it to make them feel pleasure. even if thats not the case. then you get more straightfoward people like senku, who helps people for a much more obvious reason. my main reason for helping people is because they are either getting something wrong and it is annoyig me to no end, to get them to stop pestering me for help, or because i dont like people being sad around me coz it has the nockon effect of making me feel sad. but that doesnt make people who work and think like this any less good than people who just do it "because its right". they just aim for different benefits than pleasure, or a confidence boost that they are in fact worth it. or at least thats how i see it anyway.

What I really love about Dr. Stone is
1. Reactions. When Senku said he'll reeinvent something, the 21st century people will say "YOU CAN DO THAT NOW?" and 38th century people will say "WTF IS THAT?" They're surprisingly not boring even though it's repeated quite often. Not to mention Ryusui is the only one who's excited instead of questioning it lol
2. Emotional moments. Things as simple as Suika getting glasses, first artificial light, Gen drinking cola to heavily sad Byakuya's story and more, are well executed
3. Yuzuriha best girl
4. The mind game during the fights is very thrilling. I think it's executed better in the manga than the anime.
5. I love Inagaki's storytelling style, which I also love when he did Eyeshield 21 the manga. Also love the theme of building civilization from scratch and tech up. It's like I'm watching/reading a story of Sid Meier's Civilization & Factorio
6. I love science
7. Did I say Yuzuriha best girl? Well, yeah she is, but Kohaku is also best girl
I think your first point doesnt get boring because I had exactly the same reaction. When Senku said he was building a cell phone, I had no idea how that would work. And I was amazed at the logic of it. Same thing for the steam engine, space food, generator, strong magnets, and the freezer. About the only invention that did not shock me was the hot air balloon because I knew how stupidly simple it would be to make. Whenever Senku said he was gonna make some modern tech, it got to the point where I would just giggle and shake my head at the impossibility of it all, much like the 21st century people did.

senku did not just want to store modern civilizaition just so he could go to space, he has shown consistently he cares a lot for his friends. The best example of this is when he agreed to tsukasa's request for the revival formula in order for yuzuriha to be saved.
8:30 I love how what he said here becomes a very important part in the story since
His father told stories to their children and grandchildren, who became the primitives Senku and others found, about things that he believes would help Senku in the future. If he had told them just facts, then they might forget it, but by framing it as stories and fables, and by trusting Senku to realize the meaning behind those, his stories lasted for generations.
I think one of the most refreshing aspects of Senku as the main protagonist, and indeed one of the most important quality of science that it highlights, is the fact that he as a single person can't and doesn't do anything by himself. He realises his (very significant) limitations, recruits others, utilise their potentials, so he can collaborate with them and achieve a common goal that can ultimately benefit everyone.

i think you missed how senku's character really is. he is not a manipulative mad scientist kinda character. he is gentle and really cares for his friends and humanity, you can tell he admires what we as human kind have achieve everytime he talks about science. he's also even a bit tsundere whenever he does kind things for others and pretends he's doing it for other reasons. example: him giving cotton candy to that girl who was spying on them just cause he wanted to share candy with her.
Suika is the cutest character this season.
you do realise she is a loli
@@yuvrajtomar7697 Yes and a way under age one to boot , but I was as a child she is still cute and that is what I'm saying and not a waifu type . However the chief's oldest daughter is a waifu type along with the pink girl.
@@yuvrajtomar7697 so is calling a child cute pedophilia?
Shes my fav girl (not in a weird way)
@@yuvrajtomar7697 actually she is a child not a loli, a loli is supposed to be a female character that looks much younger than what they actually are, for example, a 30 years old that looks like a 14 years old, but suika is not that, she is just as young as she looks, in fact i would argue that she is kinda of the oposite of a loli science she acts more mature than her age in some cases.
And there is no problem in saying a child is cute.

@sleepy • 16 years ago what specific information?
@sleepy • 16 years ago .revival fluid, pills, cellphone, car/tank, ship, morse code probally a little, revival fluid but with platinum thats all i can remember through out the series and the manga, those that i didnt listed like guns, motor, drones and more are may be little information to make to nothing to explain but build.
This show has quickly stolen the top spot of my favorite anime series. It's so much fun, and I love the characters so much. It's crazy how exciting the scientific process can be when it's presented the right way.
Sid Meier's Civilization: the Anime
Barbarian encampment spotted.
with Senku playing as Nebuchadnezzar
Finally, someone gets that this is Korea vs. the Aztecs...

So when does Gandhi get the nukes and just WRECK everyone?
@@jayands the only answer is senku will make sure to revive india last, so that he can stop nuclear gandhi from happening
Dr. Stone made me appreciate science and what scientists have accomplished in a way I never had before. The scene where Senku creates light for the first time felt like such an epic moment, and there are so many scenes like that in this show that reminds you of all the amazing things that humanity has accomplished. This show makes me want to do something that helps make the world a better place and, maybe more importantly, it makes me feel like I can.
Also, I learned how to move water from one container to another using a tube. Most of the stuff in Dr. Stone isn’t safe to try at home, but It was pretty cool to try be able to that out and see that it actually works.

Same bro i feel u 😂😂
It's just a rock solid show
Sam Smith why...
Pun spotted
Very Punny
I actually enjoyed your pun.
I've been in love with Boichi's manga drawing style since 3-4 years ago when he made Sun Ken Rock, the protagonist have even the same hairstyle, soo when i saw Dr. Stone i was like "Ohh that's boichi new project"
Oh i didn’t even know about his other mangas! I’ve only recognize who Boichi is after a cameo appeared Dr. Stone from one of his other work that became an anime (Eyeshield 21)
I heard that the algorithm thinks Dr. Stone is great as well.
We beat fantasy with science.

I love how the anime isn't predictable, like- *SPOILER* -when they were making the cellphone, you would assume they would finish it like their other projects, but when they were missing an ingredient, Senku just accepts that they cant make cellphones and was willing to move on, and although they did solve the conflict, it was still amazing how they carried that problem, making you feel the disappointment as if you were making the cellphone.
I want to make each of the things they make in Dr Stone in order. That sounds epic. Except maybe gunpowder. Maybe.
I legit started watching this anime because my friend was bored one day and pulled it up to show me because he said it was "Jojo Like", and in the first two eps, it had me hooked and I went and read the manga all the way up to most current arc and now it's a manga that has me waking up on Monday morning, ready to read it along side stuff like One Piece
Its a bit dark right in manga? I was soo shock when the recent arc get introduce. Also hype with someone join the battle! 👀
Well, Tsukasa is a pillar man, after all.
@@Gnidel*AYAYAYA noises*
I can’t count how many videos I’ve seen online of people trying to remake the Cola they saw on the anime. It’s really cool that a simple anime episode can peak so many people’s curiosity on some simple cooking and chemistry :)
My single favorite part of Senku is how he knows he is smart and objectively the most important human on Earth, but he does not act like he is a god or a true know it all. He makes mistakes, all the time, and constantly comments on how a real scientist would laugh at his simple mistakes like not grasping how long 3,700 years actually is and the effect it would have on the worlds geography and the location of stars in the sky. And he actually views everyone as being important. He might talk down to Magma, but he also makes it clear that Magma is extremely important for a scientific civilization. Same thing for Taiju. He understands that without people with muscles, he cant do any R&D cause he will be to busy just surviving. And when people say Senku is as strong as a flea, he doesn't even try to deny it cause he knows it is true. He doesn't mind people making fun of his weaknesses, which is why I think he can get away with making fun of other peoples weaknesses.
Dr Stone has honestly become my favorite anime of all time, easy. I was looked from the beginning but it’s just gotten better and better every single episode. All of the characters are AMAZING, the concept is so unique, and it’s just indescribable how much I love this show. It’s amazing.
I will forever love this show :D
I never thought a bottle of coke could give me chills but there you go
your script writer is very good. felt smooth and flawless the way you spoke and what you said. very nice.
Dr.Stone taught me how to make gunpowder which is an ingredient to bombs, can’t wait to show my science teacher!
