Dr. Stone is back! It snuck by me, but we're two episodes in and things are getting nuts. Including a huge plot reveal! I guess the petrification beam is some sort of alien technology? The ring-thing definitely didn't look of terrestrial origin to me

Be careful, this thread was originally the manga thread and you might get spoiled if you read too far back! I need to watch the anime. I was only okay with season 1, not sure if they improved into season 2.

My current working theory: This is Senku's clone-son, who he named after his father.

Senku not being related to Byakuya was such a weird wrinkle, especially since it never mattered in any meaningful way. Like him not being related to any of the villagers doesn't exactly matter with how much time had passed and also his uninterest in hooking up with anyone in the first place.

Like him not being related to any of the villagers doesn't exactly matter with how much time had passed and also his uninterest in hooking up with anyone in the first place. I think it's purely to allow for a relationship (or at least the possibility of one) between Senku and Kohaku. Sure, so much time has passed that that wouldn't matter, and the Ishigami villagers must have some degree of inbreeding involved anyway, but it is a kids manga and it stops that question coming up. I think it is a retcon, probably an editorial thing or something. Byakuya and Senku are clearly drawn to look related.

Yeah, it's probably another "just in case" thing, like how Taiju was there juuuuuust in case Senku wasn't popular enough to be the full MC. And hey, if there was gonna be a romance, I appreciate the lengths to not have incest, however distant.

I like the dynamic between Senku and Kohaku a lot. It cracks me up every time. "I mean, I'm down if you are--" "Eh....seems like a lot of work."

Vengarr posted:Probably a biological son, referencing the discussion they had earlier about who Senkuu was going to hook up with. Yeah that's my theory, some sort of direct descendant carrying on the name. Given the power demands and pure theory at work for their time machine, it wouldn't surprise me if it took multiple generations and maybe even a few hundred years to actually make the thing, though that'd leave out having most of the characters around to see it work (though I guess petribeam healing might be a way around that, or at minimum definitely allows sending someone forward in time without aging). Interesting that the message didn't seem to be full of vital info or anything. I get that they were just hoping to do it as a test and the content of the message itself wasn't particularly important to them, but it doesn't seem like this manga to not put in some kind of batshit insane message that really shakes things up.

 does this imply that a decade has passed since the why-man tribunal? if so everyone’s character design remaining static implies that they’re taking full advantage of the pseudo-immortality that petrification enables also all of the cast but especially senku and xeno should be venerated as equivalent to gods but here are the world governments scoffing at xeno’s proposal out of pocket  bocchi’s art is so wild sometimes, it largely escaped my notice until ruri’s dad is flashbacking to her drinking the medicine

The entire thrust of Tsukasa and Xeno's villain arcs was "modern day governments sucked rear end and we want something different/better instead of just bringing back the mistakes of the past". I honestly don't really understand this governmental arrangement they have going on here. They have some government guys going "your plan is goofy and stupid" but then Xeno threatens them(jokingly?) and then it looks like Senku and friends can just spend the enormous amount of resources making a moon base to make a time machine for no immediate return on investment in a post-apocalypse society that should still very much be in the rebuilding phase.

its one of those important questions that arises from the rebuilding of modern society alongside its ostensibly dystopic elements that kind of needs to be ignored in order to enjoy the last few arcs of the manga, like the reimplementation of currency, capitalism, nationhood, religion, etc., and on a more character-driven level, how tsukasa feels about all of it

That's totally fine and good - not everything needs to be a serious analysis and deconstruction about the flaws of modern society - it just means that any questions about how they're running things and allocating resources once they get past the Ishigami Village level are ultimately in the realm of "repeat to yourself it's just a show and you should really just relax". Vengarr posted:Senkuu is best buddies with the world-ending apocalypse device, that’s a nice thing to have in your back pocket when you go looking for grant money I actually hope that this isn't the motivator because it would mean that Senku isn't functionally any different from Tsukasa and Xeno. We had two whole arcs about how ruling people with the threat of death and violence is lovely!

To put it another way, he is in charge of the magic healing/resurrection/food preservation beam. That is also a nice thing to have.

I love that this manga popped up again just as I was thinking of it’s explanation on how microchips work. My son is doing a project on it and I wanted a simple explanation on how 1 and 0 can make a lot of things. Not sure if the flag thing really works though.

Mankind unites to build a tower to the heavens, but discord strikes early in the project due to seeming divine intervention? Looks like I'm not the only one who sees Tower of Babel parallels in the space elevator concept.

The issue is the implication that Whyman is manipulating the humans into building certain projects. Regardless of intent, that's at the very least a violation of the agreement made at the end of the series for it to mostly be an observer of human scientific progress.
