Time went forward due to the petrification but I guess since civilization/technology went backwards that apparently counts as time travel?

Characters do wake up after a 3700 years of sleep , so yes. (Excepting Senku , who was entirely awake the entire time)

I don't think it should count. I also don't really consider Re:Zero as such. As explained in Steins;Gate, it's more like time leap than time travel.

In my opinion, it doesn’t. To me ‘ time travel’ means it can be activated through some means. If you consider 3700 years of them being unable to move then every anime should be considered time travel because it takes place over the course of a day or weeks/years it’d just be 3700 years but on a much smaller scale.

I don't think it should count as time travel. I mean, after their petrification time normally passed and wasn't manipulated in any way.

I guess it counts since senku and others woke up after 3700 years with same body as it was before so.... yea. it kind of works like freezing the body and conserving it for many years for example someone freezes in 2022 and then wake up in 3022 yep that's time travel imo

Well kind of.. I’d say it’s only Senku and Taiju who were awake during this time + it’s caused by surnatural powers (or not, only watched anime)

Time travel: the concept of movement between certain points in time.

did they not move 3700 years to the future?

The Isekai tag feels more fitting than time travel would, even though neither are quite right.

some ppl are making the argument that its bcoz 3700 years have passed but thats absurd coz by that logic every shounen with a time skip (which most of them have) is a time travel anime.

I was on the fence about this, but I think the best way to explain why it is not time travel is that they did not jump from one point in time to another, they were always there, just waiting. Same goes for Fry from Futurama, and the protagonist of Fallout 4. They were always flowing with time, not traveling past any of it, although they may perceive it as such.

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

well, no. because time skips generally don't also include a total reset of humanity's technology. that would prob be the argument, tho idk if it's one I would make.

the argument for the petrification jumping them forward is good, but I was going to comment this. reread the last chapter and probably even the bonus chapter we got a few weeks ago. that's the most appropriate usage of the tag imo.

well its just a timeskip however you look at it, they all(atleast senku ,dont remember if another did) lived through those years and experienced them whether they were petrified or not.

Sure, thats entirely fair. I guess you define time travel as a story in which time travel is integral to the store/something the characters can perform (like steins;gate)?

I would just include time travel personally if an instance of time travelling/a huge time skip is a key part of the story, whereas like shounen including a year or two time skip for time training is just us skipping over the training montage of the characters. I'd say your assessment is fair but I'd prob disagree w how stringent the requirements are, even if it's consistent :)

For me time travel is when character jumps from a time to another without experiencing it. I think the debate is that of "unconscious scenario" where character gets brain ded or smtg and wakes up after several years and finds everything has changed and yes i would call that time travel but i dont think they were brain ded in dr stone

For most of them they suddenly woke up 3700 (or whatever) years into the future. Absolutley counts as time travel in this case.

but they were essentially locked outside the flow of time. sure time 'passed bor.ally around them but to them? they blinked and woke up 3700 uears in the future.

Good point. I think it depends on how we look at it, all about perspective.
