Honestly, the invention of currency isn't that bad and is actually pretty important invention historically. And the oil is just their best means at the moment. Once Senku has the means to switch to better energy alternatives, I have no doubt he'll move to make the switch.

Interestingly to me, while Senku is chief now, he'll eventually have to work out what they're going to do in terms of government once the number of un-petrified people gets big enough. He's able to lead them now thanks to Gen's help, but how will this work in the future?

Senku will come back with the stone ray and the instant someone he unstones starts ranting about property he'll threaten to put em right back in there

Well ain't that precious?

Currency is crucial for any modern society. Even communist/socialist governments need some sort of rationing.

Possibly even especially communist/socialist governments.

But if you want Senku to Finally Try Proper Communism For Real This Time, Not Like Every Other Time, according to Marxist theory capitalism is a necessary stage of development to establish the material and technological basis from which socialism is supposed to develop. Unless you're going for socialism with chinese cartoon characteristics, I guess.

it'll take generations for them to cure everyone. there's no point in de-petrifying more people than the sole human civilization can feed, clothe and shelter.

Really it would have been cool to have Senku level the actual fundamental civilization a bit first.

Introduce agriculture, irrigation, looms, etc.

Guess that's not super exciting.

He would have probably done this if he didn't have an immediate time-sensitive incentive to go looking for the stone source. When he was alone he spent a fair amount of time building up a baseline.

That would be cool in a Seinen Doctor Stone, seeing the village expand beyond the island and modernize their farming ect to support their growing population, but this is Shonen Doctor Stone so building a big rear end boat to sail across the world and acquire alien technology to save the reformed villain is way cooler.

This chapter was brilliant. :allears: I just want to hug the old man.

It's great that Yuzuriha is a genious at handicrafts and those faces had me in stitches.

Who knew having villains for lead characters would be so awesome.

It's cute that Taiju doesn't go "I've never seen this side of her!" and be shocked with Yuzuhira's quirks. Dude already knows the girl he likes pretty well. :3:

Also I laughed that Senku and Kaseki even included a cup holder in the loom. It's the tiny details that make this manga amazing.

Yuzuriha going apeshit is the highlight, but that final page is a strong contender.

That Gen centric part was hilarious. He is such a great foil to Senku and Taiju. Also good to see Chrom still sciencing and discovering the world.
Like every week, a great chapter.

Gen is probably my favorite character in the whole manga because in almost any other manga he would be an outright villain.
