Reviewing Anime
So they threw yet another curve ball at us before the end of the tournament but we have finally gotten to curing Ruri. I have to admit it is deeply satisfying seeing all of the pieces coming together here.
Do I get to count that as getting it right or not? As the tournament continues there are some surprises in the rounds though no surprise that somehow it all works out in Senku's favour. That seems to be the nature of Dr Stone so far.
It is finally time for the tournament in Dr Stone and the gang are already to go. There's a lot riding on the outcome and Senku and the others aren't above trying to turn things in their favour yet the draw ends up the worst it possibly could for them. It is another round of amazing facial expressions this week in Dr Stone.
Senku and Chrome are playing a dangerous game this week as they go collecting ingredients in a dangerous region. As Senku points out, this isn't the time for trial and error given an error will mean death. Still, given the kind of show Dr Stone has been, I don't think many of us were all that worried for their safety.
A case of mistaken identity ends poorly for Gen - fortunately for Senku and the others he's all about being sneaky. Throw in some backstory on why Kohaku is disowned and we've got a pretty fun episode of Dr Stone.

Bringing back the light of civilisation and beating back the night - Senku is working hard this week, or at least making everyone else work hard. Of course, it isn't all smooth sailing when Gen shows up clearly on a mission from Tsukasa.
Chrome, Kohaku, Senku and the melon headed girl are working together to build a world of science starting with antibiotics. It is an uphill battle and by and large an entertaining one this week in Dr Stone.
Senku has just found a village of potential followers but can he get them to trust him? Probably not if he keeps talking to himself about taking over and reshaping the world. Dr Stone this week brings us new characters to explore.
There's some real progress this week as we move beyond the first major crisis their 'civilisation' has faced. Dr Stone gives us a Taiju reminder of the reason for the title and then gets down to business introducing another new character and opening up multiple possibilities for the future.
