Senku x Gen
Anime Spotlight - Dr Stone
Yep this anime is great and worth all the buzz it gets!
The plot is 3,700 years after a mysterious flash of light petrified the human population, a teenage genius named Senku Ishigami revives to find himself in a world where all traces of human civilization have been eroded by time. Senku learns his revival was possible with nitric acid, reviving his friend Taiju Oki and their classmate Yuzuriha Ogawa to rebuild their civilization. But Senku also revived martial artist Tsukasa Shishio, who opposes Senku's intent and resolves to create a new world free from the old generation's corruption. This escalated into a Stone War between Senku's Kingdom of Science, gaining allies in a tribe of humans he learned are descendants of his father and five astronauts who returned to Earth following its petrification, and the Empire of Might Tsukasa established with those he revived. After Senku's Kingdom of Science wins, they end up facing a new enemy in a tribe known as the Petrification Kingdom, who possess the device used to petrify the world 3,700 years ago.
Its such a fun and fresh story and something just original. Its a great mix of action but also you learn a lot of about science and the natural world. Its also so compelling and exciting each ep leaving you on the edge of your seat. I adore the character designs and how they interacted and grew. I loved seeing how modern science is created in this stone world and tests Senku’s intelligence and perseverance. I love its blending of traditional and modern worlds, of action and humor but also emotional weight. Such a fun series can’t wait for season 2!
