Other Dr. Stone
- Thread starter Giga Hertz
- Start date
My wife was watching me contemplating the other day, and seemed concerned that something was wrong.
"I was just trying to figure out how Dr Stone ends..."
A combination of nitric acid (from bat excrement) and keeping their brains running for 3700 years straight and maintaining consciousness. Senku (the main main guy) was counting every single second so that he could calculate how long had progressed since they were petrified. Taiju (his friend) was kept going by his simping for the girl he was trying to confess to 0.001 seconds before the petrification happened.
Ah yes, the power of bat shite and simping. Freaking Japan
There's a lot of gag scenes for him cobbling things together. He re-invents antibiotics and he makes ammonia by peeing.Ah yes, the power of bat shite and simping. Freaking Japan
I think I heard about this anime but it wasn't described well enough so I didn't know what was being talked about.
Also, ammonia from pee? He'd have to eat a lot of meat for that, no? Humans convert it to urea before it comes out.
And yes, I am nitpicking an animated show, like any sane person on the internet would do.
Definitely try the first few episodes. It's brilliant.
The author has a consultant, but things are obviously fudged a little for narrative.
For what its worth, animals still exist in that world, and one of the first things he does after breaking out is learning survival skills including catching animals.
One of his earlier reinventions is ramen.
You are right to do so.And yes, I am nitpicking an animated show, like any sane person on the internet would do.
I think the only way humans end up with high levels of ammonia is through consumption of a lot of protein. This is why kitties have a lot of it their urine.
So he is a hero is what you are saying?One of his earlier reinventions is ramen.
I think he soliloquies early on to the effect that if he doesn't learn to hunt then he's going to have a bad time.
Very early on in the story (like 5 episodes in) he
discovers a village of people who had not come from petrified stone but were otherwise primitive with extremely little knowledge about science. He recognises that he needs more manpower to try and re-build society and unpetrify everyone from the 21st century. Naturally they're untrusting, but he wins them over with ramen and cotton candy (a machine he builds in itself to invent wire)
Also Senku unwittingly unpetrifies his first antagonist like 3 episodes in because they're being chased by a tiger and they identify him (Tsukasa) as "the strongest primate high schooler". Tsukasa is onboard with helping them, but wants to recreate society without older people who have ruined it. So basically he goes his own way to try and rebuild it by only reviving younger people (teenagers/young adults), and warriors to build an army.
Okay so the spoiler is how the show was explained. Tim (on Timcast) mentioned it. He said it is about a guy being frozen for thousands of years and coming back and having to learn and teach everything to everyone again. He didn't mention into that much detail so I wasn't sure but this is def. the anime and he was recommending it.
Pretty much. The people he has to teach have no exposure to science, but do live in Japan since the petrification. Make of that what you will. But basically, as the show goes on he has to continually advance science to overcome overarching antagonists (he has like 4 I think) and general problems from the Stone World. He's literally one of the smartest people on Earth when the petrification happens, and he just knows everything about science. He makes cool things like a makeshift train, batteries... cola.
There's also a very heartwarming scene where he makes glasses for a little girl in the village who is nearsighted (they have no concept of optometry, just "fuzzy eye disease") and she goes around wearing a watermelon on her head because the eye-slits help focus her vision (yes, she is in the show a lot because adorability sells).
So do you watch it in sub or dub? Cause I am wondering how the dubbed version is. I can't be arsed with sub versions. I only make exceptions for DB with that lol
Dub is perfectly fine. In all honesty, unless you're watching something dubbed from the early 90s, there's really not a whole lot wrong with dubs for the most part. They just have stigma. Even more so, recent anime tends to be very close to the original, so there's less to bitch about.
I'm dub only for everything though.
I think Dr Stone is on Netflix, but I don't know how far it goes. It releases every Friday on Crunchyroll. In theory season 4 is the last season.
