Like Senkuu himself has said, he can't figure out everything instantly himself (and would likely have great difficulty designing an automobile or something), and a new generation of engineers/scientists would need to be trained to spend time on the multitude of subjects Senkuu doesn't have time for. So basically you'd need at least 10+ years for a bunch of people to get an adequate education for tacking various things (including resource acquisition, like mining, which requires its own technology). The big issue is mining like you mentioned I think. Japan really does have poo poo for ore deposits and you're not getting much done without being able to reliably crank out steel, bronze, etc. or mine coal. There a cheap super low-tech way to crank out bio-diesel?

Good thing he has a village of savants as a backup. There's also nothing speaking against reviving more people as they expand their infrastructure.

Fabricated posted:Skipping a lot of the interstitial steps in technological advancement will provide huge, huge increases in tech after getting past certain roadblocks. In general a lot of more complex technology requires a large variety of materials that you'd have to both find and harvest (and harvesting them might require its own technology). Whatever society Senkuu produces would realistically involve a weird combination of really modern things that don't require special materials or a difficult engineering process and an absence of a bunch of 100-200+ year old stuff that requires some sort of actual industry generating/harvesting the materials in question.

It's extremely doubtful that Japan is the only place people "came back to life," and it's already been demonstrated that it's possible to have come back earlier.

I mean I'd like to think that they'd be allowed to have time with no physical antagonist but this is a shonen jump series and I'm not sure I buy itFantastic Flyer posted:We still have to figure out just what the hell caused humanity to turn to stone in the first place.

I think most of Tsukasa's idiot brute followers will either ditch him and go do their own thing or join Senku's side but Tsukasa himself will stick around. I don't think he's the final boss or anything but I also can't really see him just exiting the story altogether.

SgtSteel91 posted:I can definitely see a situation where Tsukasa "might makes right" attitude wins him over and he strikes a deal to hand over Senku so he can be chief of the Village Honestly this seemed to be pretty much a given from the moment Magma was introduced, but since Dr Stone has been so good about subverting my expectations in the past I'm cautiously optimistic that Senku will find some way to win Magma over to his side. Possibly with promises of more awesome poo poo like the Katanas, which Magma obviously loves.

I think Magma will always be an antagonistic idiot towards Senku but he'll never actually be a bad guy again.

Clearly Senku will recreate smartphones. Taiju and Yuzuriha's dreams are about to come true!  Also, I'm glad that old friend returned to help Senku out.

it does raise some questions about how the village. didn't know not know about the lake at first? if all it takes is a gust of wind to blow it into the field right next to them, you'd think someone would have noticed

Mraagvpeine posted:I'm going to guess that the thing Senku was talking about is air support. The thing is when Senkuu says 'The most powerful weapon humanity ever made' my mind goes to WMDs and I immediately think nuclear, but that's way too much of a stretch for now. The WMDs that he does have access to are chemical weapons (which was basically what they used in this episode after all) and biological weapons, which makes me think he's going to weaponize pneumonia and use his medicine as a bargaining chip to force the other side to surrender. But your idea is definitely good too, and now I can't help but think of Senku's group using hang gliders to drop disease-infested rodents and rats down from above to infect Tsukasa's army. khy fucked around with this message at 19:46 on Mar 9, 2018 |

It's anime. Senku will invent cartoons and Tsukasa's entire army will immediately defect.

I like the propaganda guess. Or maybe bribery.khy posted:The thing is when Senkuu says 'The most powerful weapon humanity ever made' my mind goes to WMDs and I immediately think nuclear, but that's way too much of a stretch for now. It's supposed to be a fun science adventure so I really doubt that his what 10th re-invention is going to be War Crimes. I mean "The Story of How Senku The Wise Bravely Poisoned The Water Supply" whould be a pretty severe shift in tone IMO.

I'm trying to think of a good mass suppression weapon he can make with available materials that isn't war crimey. Napalm, mustard gas, etc are all within reach but that's kinda edgy for this manga

Senku invents modern hair care, so Tsukasa's entire army defects so they can have proper pompadours while squatting menacingly.
