Someone saw Taiju and Yuzuriha while they were talking to Senku.

"I'm Senku, I'm Senku" I laugh when Taiju says that tbh.
The way Gen told Chrome and Magma to shut up when they were noisy was really funny lol.

Gen's imitation voice was discovered, only because there is a girl who likes listening to Lillian's song.

With Senku's communication device / phone idfc, it looks like it will be an easy to fight with Tsukasa kingdom, you're not a Senku because Senku is me.

Despite their long separation, their trust remains extraordinary. Senku really trusts Taiju and Yuzuriha. If Tsukasa answered the call, then Senku's plan would fail, it could even be called a game over. The three of them really had a hard time tricking that archer, I mean the archer from the Tsukasa kingdom. The three of them ran using a smoke, it wasn't a bad idea. When Taiju picks up the phone from Senku, they don't realize that they are being stalked.

After all this is a matter of negotiation, The yellow haired girl seemed to know the famous singer. After all it was Asagiri Gen's voice. It was used as a thank-you song and her student life was saved by that song. Sales, publishing, streaming, touring. It's really complicated about the CD matter, but what the hell with that last wish. After all it's so hard, knowing the three sizes? Damnnn. It's a great recorder, the music is so beautiful. The song is full of memories. There's nothing wrong with preserving a song, I'm sure one day there will be other people who appreciate that works.

Looks like the negotiations as planned, science never lie. They made friends from the Tsukasa kingdom.

The amount of personality they captured into Nikki's character into this episode imo is pretty impressive.

From Nikki's perspective, it looks like she really enjoyed Lilian's music work especially given how talented she is. The amount of feels this episode...damn. Those tears are real.

I loved the animation of the Fermi estimation scene (the time where Nikki asks SenGen.)

The grass at Magma-Chrome-Gen scene has a menacing aura and I like it.

Other than that I really like the way they portrayed Queen Nikki Hanada. Her backstory made me cry a bit.

Can't wait for more Ukyo screentime.

The cellphone hotline is FINALLY CONNECTED! Taiju and Yuzuriha, connected to Senku in Ishigami Village.

Operation: Avoid Bloodshed is in session, with Gen, Chrome and Magma (with an unsightly All Might reference) are targeted by the senstitve ears Ukyo, and Taiju and Yuzuriha targeting Nikki. A full frontal force on both fronts.

The latter part was super hilarious with Gen posing as Lillian and Senku being the interpretator, and it was easy to coax Nikki...not so much on the "hardcore fan" part. Even with a Fermi estimate, asking about Lillian's 3 sizes is a sure fireproof way to identify real from fake. But nothing can beat the power of music...with real tears.

With the power of music, coupled with the power of science, welcome Nikki into the Ishigami party! Another wonderful episode.

Aww I teared up this episode. Taiju and Yuzuriha recruiting Nikki took some walking on egg shells negotiations but they got it done! Taiju put his literal body in harms way taking Nikki punches so she'd listen to that he had to say. Senku and Gen were going along smoothly until they figured out Nikki is a Lillian superfan and wouldn't be pleased with parlor tricks. But it's a good thing she is such a fan of Lillian since they could play that recording of the song, which just so happened to be Nikki favorite, and it won her to their side. I started crying when Nikki started crying listening to the song as it showed flashbacks to when she was so uplifted by hearing that song countless times. Goes to show how music can uplift someone who's feeling down by what's going on in their life. Senku did the right things being honest with Nikki. I'm glad shes on their side now, A great ally to have

I really like Senku's honesty, even if he could end up killed he isn't going to make false promises and the like, Nikki was super badass and I'm glad she became an ally, hopefully Homura does the same eventually.

Well there's no tricking a super fan. Nikki knows Lilian too well to be tricked. The song still gives me chills, it's amazing! Nikki now joins the Kingdom of Science to protect one song, she is a true fan.

Gen and Senku, one of my favorite duos ever ^^
Senku never ceases to amaze me with the way he thinks, like that evaluation of the sold cds and the measurements from a pic he remember, like damn!

A very heartwarming Dr. Stone episode. Senku and Gen's plan to draw people from Tsukasa's army by using Lillian's voice fall through when it turns out that Nikki is huge fan of Lillian. However, they were able to convince her by using the power of music in Lillian's song and Nikki would do everything in her power to protect it.

LMAO, funny intro to the episode.

The dream team: Magma, Chrome, and Gen all worked together to escape the archer in a pretty cool fashion, good idea with the battery.

Senku and Gen working together to trick the guard failed, but it was fine as the music they had moved her to tears anyway. And I have to say, I can't blame her, the insert song was suuuper good and when she started crying I teared up a little bit too :(.

Damn it Taiju! I know you're already a lovable softly at heart, but shouting out "I am Senku!!!" made me burst out laughing! XD

This was a great episode, as it hit the comedy tones so well, but also did a great job in delivering the more emotional parts, too. Nikki was certainly intimidating and even the likes of Senku's powerful calculations and Gen's near perfect replica of Lilian's voice wasn't enough to sway megafan Nikki.

However, all of that changed when Senku played the sole recording of Lilian's song, which ultimately won over Nikki. She's a good girl at heart and she'll be a great ally for Senku, Taiju, Yuzuriha and the others moving forward. ^_^

Always hits hard when Taiju and Yuzuriha talk with Senku for the first time in a year.

Nikki? More like Thicci amirite? But this really showed us how depressing the whole stone world situation really is. Media from all across the spectrum has been lost forever. Music, movies, TV, anime, etc.

I hope Nikki plays a big role in what's to come.

Fantastic episode as always.

Taijuu and Senkuu's reunion over the phone was emotional, my man Chrome with the quick thinking bait plays, giving Gen the chance he needed to escape.
That SMASHH!! though. xD

Damn Senkuu pulling all those calculations out of his head like pulling grass out from the ground. Unfortunately, he wasn't a match for a mega fan. I love how Gen commented on how Senkuu's luck of the draw somehow ends up bad when he really wants it to go good. Luckily they were able to turn it around at the very end by showing that they did in fact own a genuine piece of music. I also really like that Senkuu didn't lie to Nikki and told her straight up that this was the only piece of music that was left and he'd protect it with everything he's got.

Sounds like the Science kingdom has a new comrade. Very interested to see the role Nikki's character will play.

I don't know about this beggining, maybe it's just me but I've been really struggling trying to enjoy this. The humor doesn't hit me, and everything gets cheesy pretty easy in this anime, I used to like Senku but his traits and egdgyness are starting to get in my nerves, it's been boring overall and it feels like things aren't really progressing. I wasn't a big fan of the first season but there were things that I really liked and made me keep watching, I hope this season provides something like that.
