I like how Yuzuhira has apparently been really super into Senku's super long explanations since the three of them were kids.

New Dr Stone chapter is called: poo poo just got real. KASEKI! Ryusui is really earning my respect in this chapter. Also note most people were damaged from falling over. Beyond that I have no idea, but I can't wait for next weeks chapter!

Holy poo poo you're not kidding. That's a very huge oh poo poo got real moment. I don't think anyone expected to be in danger of getting petrified again. This feels like we're already facing the final boss.

Woah plot! I bet the wish they'd brought Tsukasa along now... and I wonder if this means we'll see new scars, or if those only happen to people who spend a long time petrified. It seems interesting that the petrification hit after a sudden storm... could it have been a side effect, or maybe the storm saved the group, by stopping the petrification effect from finding them while out at sea?

Darth TNT posted:New Dr Stone chapter is called: poo poo just got real. Oh gently caress. I really didn't expect the petrification source to be something that was now an "at will" weapon. So...I don't think there's any reason to think that even if the initial petrification was a deliberate attack that the person who did it was both on a deserted island AND the space crew just happened to land on the exact same one. Considering they survived for a very long time and even managed to spread out over other islands. Especially since they already said it originated in South America (and team Senku ain't there yet). So, that means either: The original science crew discovered how the petrification ray worked, rebuilt it, and some member of their tribe decided to turn it into a weapon generations down the line or it means that the original creator/their decedents discovered the island in the same way that Senku did and decided to try and stall the march of progress they held the potential for. Considering that Boichi included a character who is an original inhabitant of the island whose parents decided to leave the island for some reason, and did so recently, I think that reason was to escape something. But, to get a bit meta about the story, since they just got a new anime for the series I doubt we're in full on BBEG territory since that's pretty early in the story to reach that point and I think Boichi wants to play around with "Senku discovers more crazy modern tech" more. So it's probably that the space crew did discover how the petrification ray worked, and one of the members went crazy and used it as a weapon (or someone further down the line) and not the original petrification creator. Fun possibility: If this petrification ray follows the same rules as the first then Senku's dad has a chance of becoming an active character. If the ray was discovered within their lifetimes, then the dude who took over might have frozen him/others of the original crew to get them out of the way. Then ruled over the island as the sole heir to modernity. Since there were only 6 surviving original members I'm not sure that any of them could have been the culprit, considering the path of their story so far with creating the 100 stories, the glass record, etc. But since the tribe is named Soyuz we might be able to make a bet on the perpetrator being a descendant of one of then Russian space crew members. And since the only one with any real characterization is Shamil Volkov I'm going to bank on him being the source of this. His characterization didn't make him out to be any sort of "bad guy", but he was particularly detached and methodical about his new existance, with his reaction to his marriage being a "this is what the world is now, no need for ceremonies". Plus he straight up has the same "look" as Tsukasa and is kinda primed for antagonist status. Maybe he developed a weird "philosophy" that inspired later generations to do all this. /crazy pre-coffee theory posting

The fact there were only 6 people in the space craft and they spread out across islands I wonder if it'll bring up a deliberate decision was taken to try and ensure that inbreeding didn't occur so groups split apart

Jose posted:The fact there were only 6 people in the space craft and they spread out across islands I wonder if it'll bring up a deliberate decision was taken to try and ensure that inbreeding didn't occur so groups split apart Strictly speaking...inbreeding happened regardless since I’m pretty sure a population of just 6 is far too small to actually ensure repopulation. Ignoring that: splitting the families (it would have been 3 tribes since it was 3 women & 3 men) along those lines would ensure MORE inbreeding since you’re cutting off whole breeding populations and enforcing that you’re creating descendants from direct relatives. EDIT: Quick image. After gen 2 you're going to start getting some level of inter-familial crossover since every possible population (controlling for interacting with direct decedents) has D genes (or if I went in another order E or F).

I do remember from my brief education in genetics that you need like a population of 100 to ensure the fewest potential problems down the road.

With everyone turned to stone there is only one thing you can do! Crime Stone Investigation! Amazing chapter. The string Gen used to stop Kohaku is actually on his wrist already when he tells her. And of course all interactions between Gen en Senku are great. I suppose that that is the advantage of stoning so many characters, it leaves more room for the best characters (except Kaseki ). I can't wait for next week. My favorite manga at present are easily this and Spy X Family. Chainsawman being right behind them.

Bittles AH, Grant JC, Sullivan SG, Hussain R. quote:Abstract In principle, you could argue that the study is looking at short-term rates of fertility, but the populations where consanguineous marriages are practiced have presumably been doing so for a long time.

Yeah there would have to be a lot of inbreeding, but it's not like siblings were marrying each other. There is a degree of separation. Not much, but it is there.

Predictions on how this will turn out. The "Great Leader" is not the one originally responsible for the petrification, or even a descendant. Rather he's just a random guy who chanced upon the petrification ray (either it was originally on that island, or Senku's dad or his descendants found the beam and brought it there) and decided neat, I can be a ruler and petrify everyone who opposes me. The Great Leader doesn't even know how the petrification beam works, beyond "point at target -> pull trigger"; also, the petrification beam is just a small part of a bigger machine, because it simply doesn't have enough power on its own to petrify the whole world. The next steps for Senku's gang (beyond undoing the crew's petrification, of course) will be to take the beam from the Great Leader, find out how it works and a way to make it work in reverse (de-petrification), and finding the rest of the machine to plug it in and de-petrify the whole world. (Discounting, for now, the "use the beam to heal Tsukasa" bit.)

Suddenly reviving billions of people into a feral world sounds like a great way to starve everyone, since the average person doesn't have the skills to survive. Seems to me like the best way to revive everyone is to slowly expand the village and depetrify people as they go, eventually splitting into different societies, travelling the world, and getting bigger and bigger.

RatHat posted:Suddenly reviving billions of people into a feral world sounds like a great way to starve everyone, since the average person doesn't have the skills to survive. Dystopian sequel series: After a long life of reestablishing society Senku has gone all Luke Skywalker into the wastes. Tsukasa 2.0 takes power and uses the depetrification system as leverage to control the world, holding everyone's loved ones as perpetual hostages. Prisons are filled with stone prisoners, and only the rich and inner circle members get to use the petrification ray to extend their lives, heal themselves, and revive their families. A plucky group of high schoolers goes on a journey to try and find the mythical scientist who discovered how the ray works to try and make their own to break the power hold. Senku just wants to make cool bamboo cars and other silly poo poo like he did in his younger days though.
