| We got a climatic battle this episode between Senku and Ibara. The latter looked insane in this fight with that hysterical personality of his. Truly though, this episode justifies that even with science, it would be difficult. Ibara's massive ego took hold of him as well. Like Jesus Christ, this episode really bought out his personality in the most insane way possible. I love how Senku didn't back down no matter what though, especially with the high stakes. |
 |
| Over the time, it’s amazing how much Chrome has grown to be someone who Senku could believe without thinking twice. I mean if it wasn’t for him telling Senku that the petrification beam does travel at a constant speed, and in the meanwhile making sure everyone does stand evenly spaced, when about to get petrified, was what ultimately led Senku to somehow escape from the grasps of the beam. Senku does get credit for his quick thinking again, but so the others. As for Ibara, this man might not be from the modern age, but you’ve to give it to him for how he managed to corner Senku, despite his limited knowledge over many things. I mean he wasn’t even buying bluffs lol. Though you might call it convenient, how Ryusui revived again, but then again we couldn't have had all the odds against Senku and co. too lol. The petrification happened again, Ryusui went out again, but he did so in some way… by placing the earpiece just at the right place beside Ibara, and that’s all it took Senku to FINALLY have Ibara turn into stone. Phew, was a classic dr. stone episode. “I outwitted you, no I did, no see again I did… no, no you see again I did”, this arc in simple words tbh lol. But that’s one fine conclusion, and quite honestly then that Ruri call in the end made it the finest. |

| The humor in the "self-driving car" joke was particularly amusing, especially when you catch on that there wasn't any fancy A.I. steering the wheel. As a result of Ibara's tactics, Treasure Island becomes engulfed in a petrifying glow. Successively, the companions of the Science Kingdom and the island residents are transformed into stone. Only Ibara, who had avoided the light while on the ship, manages to survive. However, upon confidently setting foot on the island, Ibara discovers that Senku, using scientific ingenuity, has thwarted the petrification device and stands alone! The confrontation on Treasure Island over control of the petrification device finally reaches its peak with a showdown between Senku and Ibara. I'm glad that Ibara got taken down by that truck, haha. After weeks of watching the Kingdom of Science go through a rough time, this episode had me clapping. It couldn't have been more epic— the dramatic escape, Ryusui's comeback, and the drone zooming straight onto the media's devices thanks to Ryusui's control skills. The whole situation was admittedly a bit naive, like that bottle hitting Ryusui of all people. At least we finally got our hands on the Petrification Device. I hope Senku doesn't decide it's too risky to keep. It's unlikely, considering Senku's keen interest in examining everything about it to understand how the Petrification Disaster from over 3000 years ago really worked, but you never know. Senku found himself encircled by numerous stone statues, but he wasn't solitary anymore. There were other people out there who hadn't been turned into stone statues. |
 |
| Like how many people guessed, Senku threw the revival fluid to revive himself! His "transformation" scene was so damn cool! The marks on his face didn't disappear for some reason, but they look cool so I'm not complaining. "You May Have Outsmarted Me, But I Outsmarted Your Outsmarting!" Senku's scream after the battle was real. The ending made me emotional again. Really good episode, but yeah, they really need to explain why the device worked now but it didn't when Senku said the command though the phone last episode lol. Edit: Yeah, it was too far from the device last episode and Senku said it himself. And yeah I'm stupid. |

| Maybe the best episode of the season so far, Ibara was a pretty smart villain all things considered, and Senku had to pull out all the stops to defeat him. I liked the ending scene when Ruri called him from the other side of the world. Now the recovery begins. |
| The way they all trust each other, Senku's high fives and scream, that last shot.. this episode hit me right in the feels! Amazing battle of wits as well! |
| Been a long time coming this one. Best episode in quite some time. |
  |
| Power of Friendship done right. |
| REJECT ANIMU - EMBRACE TOKU |
| ibara is one smart villain for sure damn glad senku and ryusui won |
| what an interesting turn off event. medusa vs demigods |
 |
| Wow. Senku actually revived himself by throwing the revival fluid up in the air. But the way he calculated the exact moment to throw it was so badass. The scene of him being petrified and depetrified was cool too. Actually, the whole episode was badass. The mind game with Ibara was... exhilarating! Ibara is not just disgusting, he's a smart bastard as well. Senku beating him was very satisfying. This episode kept me on edge for its entire runtime. That was amazing. I didn't think the boss battle would be so long and so satisfying. The last scene was also emotional. Can't wait for the next episode where he revives all his friends and tell them his crazy story. I wonder what the last 3 episodes are going to be about. |
| I was pretty worn out on the twists, it was a little heavy handed and I'm glad that much is over (i hope). |
 |
| Well that was an intense battle between ibara and senku really but in the end senku was the last standing man and yeah he is not alone. |
P O S I T I V E V I B E Sシ  |
| This was so incredibly tense, I was on edge the entire time. And it only worked so well, because Ibara was a legitimately dangerous thread. On top of that, it was such an unique and well constructed fight with believable twists and turns. With just a tiny bit of shounen magic to make it work. |
| if it was me the first thing i would do is kick the old mans statue anyway now senku not only has powerful allies and the strongest weopen he can experiment with to know the truth |
 |
| Ibara reign of terror is finally over and what a conclusion to the battle. His pride and arrogance ended up being his downfall just as you’d imagine. The last two episodes have been the best Dr. Stone episodes imo. So well done. The tension, the build up, the fights! All immaculate. Got a little emotional at the end of the episode when senku realised after the phone call that he’s not alone. He can bring his friends back and their sacrifices are why he’s still walking around. Can’t wait for next episode |

| So many twist! in the end best male character Ryuusui turned out to be the MVP, man that final bit with Senku once again surrounded full of petrified people got me emotional, he has a strong will but one man can only take so much but this time he wasn't alone thanks to the Ishigami Villagers. |
| The trust everyone has in Sengoku is amazing . Then again, when I had a genius friend like that I would be confident too in such a situation xD |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| I noticed Senku mentioning something about Pythagoras during the car runover scene (pitagorasuicchi), then discovered he's actually referencing PythagoraSwitch, a Japanese educational programme that features Rube Goldberg machines. The final scene with Senku feeling alone is greatly extended compared to the manga where it lasts less than a second if you're speed reading, making it far more emotional imo. Ryuusui has now been petrified four times! |
| The showdown between Ibara and Senku came to an end with Senku finally acquiring the Medusa weapon. I thought old man Ibara was going to win again when he set off Medusa again, but Ryuusui made the last minute save to attach the earring listening device on Medusa before getting petrified again. It was Ibara's overconfidence in being cautious that lead him to be petrified for the first time. Now Senku is all alone on the island, but he's still able to communicate with the people from the Ishigami village. Time to revive everyone. |
 |
| That's a few too many lolnope plot twists in such a short amount of time. |
| BEST ANIME OF THE SEASON !! |
 |
| Would be a real shame if they had no revival fluid left at all amirite? |
 |
| In that scene, everything was really crazy! Senku was really smart in his move against Ibara. I love this! I hope this anime is going to have a high rank. |
| I was really wondering how all the info Senku had on the Medusa device would help him survive it, well now we know and it really was something that had to be perfect, well this is Dr. Stone we’re talking about and of course it was indeed perfect lol. And the “boss fight” with Ibara ended up being really intense, I had no idea how a one on one confrontation with Ibara would go but I really liked it, especially there in the final moments where some plays made were truly wild, I had a feeling Senku would revive someone to help him, but using the earpiece to finally defeat Ibara was perfect, nice to finally see him go down after all the shit he’s done. And to end the episode off, after it appeared that Senku was once again alone in the world after everyone but him got stoned, he was reminded that he definitely isn’t alone this time, that was a really good spot to end on after such a good episode, and we’re not even at the end yet so it’ll be interesting for to see what the rest of this season has in store. |
| Finally the villain is done for. Senku's not alone this time. What a guy though really. |
 |
| This battle between Senku and Ibara proved to be a tough one, where the drive to outsmart one another kept up the intensity of the fight from start to finish. Senku had to put in a Herculean effort during the whole episode. First was how he had to calculate the timing of throwing the revival fluid in order to revive him at the same time that was getting petrified, which paid off by a narrow margin. Even tougher than that was staying one step ahead of Ibara. His overly cautious nature made him a difficult opponent to go up against and Senku had to give it his all here. He even had another bottle of revival fluid, which he chose to revive Ryusui, which was a wise choice during the latter stages of the battle. In the end, thanks to Ryusui's last ditch move to attach the ear ring receiver to the Medusa's Eye, Senku was able to activate it to petrify Ibara once and for all, thus winning this closely contested battle. The aftermath carried emotion, as it made Senku feel like he was alone again, similar to his situation at the beginning of the first season. Thankfully, a phone call from Ruri back on the mainland brought his mind back to reality, reminding him that he isn't alone at all. Overall, this episode was great, where it kept me on the edge of my seat with how close the fight was between Senku and Ibara. =) |
| I'm still waiting for explanation on the beam device |
| هیچوقت بهتر نمیشه |
| thats a boss fight right there. |
 |
| What an epic battle! Ibara being a smart villain made it more engaging. And the result was Senku is the last man standing but he's not alone. |
 |
| Epic Last Man Standing Battle!! "Those who think they're smart are the easiest ones to screw over." back at you Ibara LMAO Senku will never lose in SCIENCE!! |
 |
| Why does the opening song feels perfect for christmas season. I think i would be playing it on my spotify more this december. That was amazing Senku-kun. I'm crying at the end like how became peaceful now they get rid of that rat. Love the sunset and after that the ED pby Anly plays that was perfect 😭♥ |
