| Great episode overall, can't wait for the next season!! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Technically spin-off "Dr. Stone Reboot: Byakuya" is not canon (manga authors said so themselves) but still it's nice anime made reference to this. |

| Byakuya is 2 for 2 on slamming the feels to 10 billion miles per hour. What a man! Overall, this is shaping up to be a solid follow-up to the saga. Not quite on par with the previous seasons, but the setup is giving me faith that it'll get there again. Admittedly, I was beginning to lose interest in the first couple of episodes. But once Why-Man made contact, I had to strap back in for this jet rocket ride. The inventions got pretty outlandish & wacky this season, but it still remained fun & centered around that driving theme of scientific inquiry & adaptation. It's also interesting to see how various gadgets are made in different ways using the same basic principles. It's a reminder that the way inventions & discoveries occurred in history aren't set in stone absolutes. That is to say, that a cell phone could have been invented before a steam engine if someone had the right knowledge & materials. Similarly, someone could skip over generations of walkie-talkie phones to produce a smartphone since that was developed through a steady process of learning & building on previous knowledge. The only thing that's starting to bother me, however, is the constant PSA about how great science is. I get they're called the Kingdom of Science, but it starts to feel a little cultish with all of the pats on the back about how amazing science is in every single episode (although I won't deny how great it is). Admittedly it could just be that the novelty has faded as this starts to feel increasingly sci-fi. 7/10 |

| so as i thought, this is going to end in cliffhanger. too bad really, i really thought we gonna have much from this "part". but oh well, i feel it did made some real progress in the plot. finally they found the platinum to make the nitric acid. though in the process, they might had risked a lot. i don't know how that village gonna react now that they are aware of them. anyway, this season "part" was pretty good. the pace was rushed, but so it was in season 2. in season 2, however, i felt it was justified to the "war" plot. but in this one i felt it made the plot a bit less scientistic. only toward these last episodes the pace got little better, but it made little bad impression since they didn't progressed the plot much. still though, we learned a lot by now, specially with WHY man. and the fact that somebody are using the petrifaction beam. seriously can't wait for the series to answer some stuff already. Zekkenshin said: admittedly, the whole concept for this show is sci-fi. and i'm not talking about the whole petrifaction area.dmittedly it could just be that the novelty has faded as this starts to feel increasingly sci-fi. sci-fi isn't only when it's defy logic, the fact that the story is revolving on apocalypse world is sci-fi itself. |

| As funny and easy to watch this series is sometimes I facepalm so hard because of lack of logic. Byakuya spend decades collecting gold and platinum because by his logic "humanity collected all easy to reach resources, so the second time it will be impossible". Uhm, if those resources were collected and used on surface of the planet, then even if 3700 years of harsh weather destroyed every sign of civilisation it all remained on the surface, just mixed in the soil. It would be even easier the second time. He could have spent all this time doing something more useful, like I don't know, maybe trying to move from that island to mainland to use what remained there? Still a good show if you don't mind those inconsistencies and just enjoy the ride. |
Candies:  |
| Casualy drop the fact he not blood related with his father, i really wonder who could be why-man /s |
| Byakuya really is the MVP of the series lol Now we can revive everyone |
 |
| Byakuya spent over 30 years working so hard to get as much as he could for the future generations... He and his crewmates were really true heroes of the whole humanity. Now that the Kingdom of Science has acquired the way to make the revival fluid, everyone previously petrified on Perseus may return to join the struggle to put their hands on the petrification weapon. I know it's just the first part of the third season, but wow. It adapted the source material in a brilliant, epic and beautiful way. |
| I honestly got teary-eyed watching this episode. Byakuya’s confidence that Senku will figure it out and spending decades collecting in a river, sifting for rare metals to help him out is beyond awesome and heartwarming. He went out like a champ. The second half of this arc is shaping up to be full of hype! |
 |
| Byakuya is best dad! Takes a special kind of father to take care of his son from thousands of years in the past! |
 |
| LOVED THIS ONE SM, I'M ADDICTED!!! SENKU'S PAPA DABEST!!!!!! |
| Senku cooking rat attack mwuahaha ginro is actually crazy lmao plaster bomb worky? treasure time its sand nuh uh its gold dust Senku dad actually epic, bro got so much platinum senku dad 😭😭 PLATINUM ACQUIRED YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAA part 2 time |
  me candies:       |
| While watching this episode, I was literally thinking as I looked at Senku's dad growing very old; How I wish he was alive and that he would go on this journey with him. It turns out that he's not Senku's biological father and there's a huge possibility that Senku's real dad will eventually appear in this series. I don't know how that would come to be but the idea would not leave me. |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |
| I've got so much respect for Byakuya. Living and carrying out your work alone, especially not knowing if it'll even be useful in the end, takes guts and tremendous belief, which paid off ultimately. I feel sad for him tbh. Wish he was still around for Senku. |
 |
| Another fun session of Dr.stone, can't wait for the team to be revived in next part. Every time that old dude open his eyes, it's creepy asf. Senku's dad gather all those platinum throughout decade and dying like that was heartbreaking. It's time for payback from the science Kingdom. 8/10 |
| Interesting way to end the first half of the season. It's crazy the amount of hardwork that Byakuya to collect all that platinum for Senku to use in the future. He truly believed in his son, and you can see how alike they are, even if they aren't blood related. Although it seems a bit to coincidental for Byakuya to collect exactly what Senku needed to reverse de petrification process. Anyways, this season was on pair with the other so far. It developed a lot in the story and in the setting of the anime, and in my opinion had some of the most tense scenes in the anime so far, but at the same time it was the season that had some of the most "boring" episodes too, not that they were bad, but they felt more like a routine than anything. So things end up to even out, so I'm giving this 1st half of season 3 an 8/10 too, just like all the previous instalments to the series. |
