Introduction

Now that brains and brawns have united forces, the next step in Senkuu's plan to unravel the mystery behind the green light that once petrified humanity is to go to the other side of the Earth and investigate its origin. However, to achieve this, Senkuu must first build a ship. With the help of Tsukasa Shishiou's former underlings, the base of the ship is rapidly assembled, but there is one missing piece: a skilled captain. During their search, Senkuu and his crew come across a petrified Ryuusui Nanami—the heir of the biggest maritime conglomerate, known for his vast knowledge of sailboats but unpleasant personality. Despite this, Senkuu takes the risk and revives Ryuusui. Ryuusui, upon realizing there are no ownership rights in this new civilization, is excited at the prospect of claiming everything for himself. But before he agrees to play a crucial part in their upcoming journey and command the vessel through the restless seas, he and Senkuu must find the king of fuels to power the ship—oil.

Even though Dr. Stone: Ryusui is just one episode, it’s an absolute must-watch. The story is clever and unique, keeping the momentum and immersive world of the series alive while adding fresh excitement. The art style and animation perfectly match the adventurous and inventive tone of the series, making every scene visually engaging. The characters are well-rounded, with strengths, flaws, and believable reactions, and the new interactions in this episode feel natural and fun. Fans of Dr. Stone or shonen in general will likely enjoy this episode, even if they aren’t usually into anime, because it delivers the same creativity, charm, and energy the series is known for.

*SNAP* "HA HAAA!" Ah man, Ryuusui is such a shithead and I love him. The man is such a main character that he manifested an entire one hour special dedicated to him, something nobody else has gotten prior or since. He even gets to have my 60th ever review! This man is so cocky, he just bends destiny around himself it seems. There really isn't too much to say, as it's just a longer episode to bridge the gap between seasons. It presents all the goodies we've come to know and love about the Dr. Stone anime. Great character interactions, good mix of serious work and humour, awesome visuals and sound design and a fantastic sense of togetherness and cooperation with the entire cast. Once again, the new characters introduced slot right in like the pieces of an ever growing beautiful puzzle an…

Please note, do not skip this episode, you need to watch it unfortunately. Watch this after Stone Wars and before New World. This was a silly little interlude between seasons, I am not entirely sure why this wasn't just part of the either season. Ryuusui is a character that you will either enjoy or hate. He is pretty 1 dimensional like so many of the others in the story, he unlike many of them actually pushes the plot forward. If you don't like his... well you wont like what's going to be in the future seasons... On to the next season I suppose, as this was more of the same, and I seem to be invested with this very mediocre show. Probably because its so weird.

This episode where Ryusui is introduced is a masterpiece. Design, personality and everything else that revolves around him is just great. Even though to some people he might be kind of a show off, to me it doesn’t feel that way. It seems like he just adds the right amount of comedy to the show that it lacked. Loved how they pirate-ified the original opening (replayed it around 354 times, and then after a few months I replayed it for another 400 times) I love the relationship Ryusui has with Senku, and I knew that pair was going to be amazing. Maybe I’m just fangirling it but Ryusui is literally the greatest, there’s no other character in dr stone, he is a masterpiece, got nothing else to say.

Dr. Stone: Ryuusui" is a 50-minute special that takes place after the second season of the popular anime "Dr. Stone." The special starts off with a catchy, upbeat remix of the show's opening theme, "Good morning world," which immediately sets the tone for an action-packed and entertaining episode. The animation in this special is consistent with the high standards set by the main series, with detailed character designs, dynamic action sequences, and beautiful backgrounds. The humor in this special is also on point, providing a good balance of comedy and action that keeps the audience engaged. All in all, "Dr. Stone: Ryuusui" is an excellent special that builds on the main series in all the right ways. It's well-animated, funny, and action-packed, and it delves deeper into the world and t…

Watch this after Stone Wars and before New World. This is a fantastic anime that continues the story from Stone Wars. This 55 minute special is charming and fun, and it will make you fall back in love with the series again. The story follows Senku and the gang as they try to solve the petrification by traveling across the world. However, they need a captain to sail the ship that they are building, so they revive Ryuusui, Japan’s most rich and knowledgeable ship captain before the petrification. The story is great and while there’s no real threat, it’s still very enjoyable to watch. The art is fantastic as always, with classic Dr. Stone animation and new clothing seen around halfway through. Ryuusui’s design is charming and adds to the overall experience. The sound quality is perfectly fi…

English. This, in my opinion, seems more like the first episode of season 3, from my point of view they could have done it as their first episode and nothing would have happened, but still, this does not make the experience any less good, it is a great first episode to start with this small beginning, since it will make us want more and yearn for the third season, it is simple but beautiful is how I would put it, not only because the story advances a lot but also gives us a little taste of what it will be third season, they show us several mini plots which for my taste are quite funny and entertaining, since they can give us concepts which, although they are difficult to understand, they show us in such a way that the viewer feels quite good with what is shown and what is shown. can unders…

I'll be honest, season 2 dragged so much and left me unimpressed so I figured this show just wasn't for me. Then I watched this "movie". And watched, and watched, and suddenly the end credits started to roll. The premise is simple and it jumps ahead a few steps regarding how currency works and how it evolved as time passed but whatever the show was fun and the new agent of chaos that got introduced here shows promise. This one is silly fun and doesn't pretend to be anything else, the show got dumbed down a bit compared to how season 1 started but overall it's not bad.

Ryuusui what a man ! Back again with this segment of season 2 and the first taste of season 3 ! To make it short, it's just so close to perfect that it barely can be a 9 or a 10. Ryuusui isn't a masterpiece, but it's not bad either or basic. It's executed perfectly yet I can't call it a ten but at the same time I'd really want to give it a 10. You have everything you loved from the two seasons condensed in 54 minutes, an amazing opening which is an epic cover of "Good morning World !", Ryuusui (he's everything to be honest) and cool pacing. Overall a good watch !

Oh how I've missed these funky little science dudes. What an absolutely hilarious way to start this new arc. I'm not even kidding within the first 5 minutes I had to pause because I was laughing so hard I nearly choked. The humor in this show is so damn good. Also the new introduced character is great. A lot of new dynamics with the other characters, along with his own depth. We don't know a lot but I cannot wait to learn. Along with of course all the other burning questions I have (Someone PLEASE give me Gen's backstory I NEED to know exactly why he has such a deep nostalgic love for Cola) Everything is perfectly set up for the next season to hit the ground running. I just know it's going to be phenomenal

if you have watched both 'Dr.Stone' and 'Dr.Stone: Stone Wars' then you shouldn't miss this one out, it'll surely be related with the upcoming season 3 of Dr.Stone. This is something you surely will love. If you felt a bit disappointed with the second season and are being like why should I watch season 3 when it some out? just watch this ova and I guarantee you it will show you why you should. It is a both cliffhanger and a VERY VERY ENTERTAINMENT of an ova. In the last season 'Dr.Stone: Stone Wars' Senku made a plan to unravel the mystery behind the green beam which petrified the entire humanity, in order to do that he needs to travel to the other side of the planet and to do that he needs a vehicle, ain't no way a car will help them to travel that many distance, so he decided to travel b…

Here comes again the animated adventure of Senku, our beloved Science Boi! Basically it’s a bridge between the 2nd and the 3rd season. This time Senku and the science kingdom need to build a ship to travel and discover the other side of the world to solve the mystery behind that light that turned all of the people into stone.

Science kingdom concluded they need to start mapping out the whole area to update their map. It’s…

This serves as an interlude special between Stone Wars and New World and feels more like a movie than a normal special - but it feels like people may skip this and go straight to New World from Stone Wars and miss out on important plot points. The art style appears to be cleaner and an improvement upon the previous series, but... a lot of the characters are made to look very similar, so some are a little bit hard to tell apart at certain angles. A wider cast of voice actors for this one and I imagine from here on it will grow exponentially - at this moment in time, they have a lot of good voice actor choices, but I worry about the budget if this needs to keep up. Senku Ishigami (Sorcerer Gentleman, Sorcerer, Professor Senku, String bean, Dr. Senku) Gen Asagiri (Mentalist, Sneaky Little…

Dr. stone is a masterpiece, trust me on that. And this movie again proved that. This series might not have a lot of action or so-called thrilling scenes, but this one has the one thing that we need the most in our life. S C I E N C E This movie introduces a new character, Ryuusui. In this short movie of 1 hour, we see some new concepts like inventing money and other means of travel unveiled. The art and the music in this movie are the same as in the series. Also, the thrill is also the same. They didn't even waste a bit of screentime. The whole duration of the movie was very exciting to watch. WAtching a civilization prosper was never this much exciting. There is nothing much to say about this one actually. Just you know that you will be thrilled. If you love this series, you will def…

I think I'd prefer to get Dr Stone in more short bursts like this. What I found watching the second season was that the concept really doesn't hold up over too many episodes. What made the first season great was it being an anime version of Primitive Technology. There's just something inherently appealing to our human nature in watching something take form from just raw materials, and the process was both fascinating and believable. The second season felt like it rushed through a lot of the steps that might have been more interesting and wanted to focus on the narrative more than the tech tree building stuff. Here I think there's a good enough mix of both, and they finally have a realistic amount of manpower to accomplish some of the things they're doing in the time frame presented. I thi…

As a Dr.Stone fan this little movie, ova, whatever its called it bought back so much excitement that I get out of Dr.Stone. When I read the manga this little episode didn't seem all to great, but seeing it adapted I got to say they really made it well. To put it simply if you like Dr.Stone then of course you gotta watch this. I can also see why they decided to make this small little episode, because season 3 will be going through a really awesome arc. Which would suck if they decided to rush it. By doing this small mini episode it takes out the factor of them rushing through the story in one season and letting it get properly adapted. Overall: If you're a Dr.Stone fan and keeping up with the story don't miss this episode

This special episode of Dr Stone was amazing and full of education, just like its predecessor seasons. A 55 minute special that deals with creating a ship for further exploration of Ishigami Senku. It is important to remember that humanity advances culturally, politically, and societally through a trial of errors, as history has shown. Capitalism began because it created something good in people’s minds, and we see that through three terrible-minded people who enjoy the fruits of other people’s labor to advance science, but are also motivated to reach the answer behind the petrification of humanity.   The episode blends both an educational explanation of meteorology with shounen style battles. As the storm cloud looms over the protagonists, the cloud turns into a monster. Through the use…

I always expect Dr. Stone to give us great science tidbits that tie tot he plot and make you feel like you learned something without it getting too expository. What I wasn't expecting was for them to turn their magic towards economics -- and not only that, show a rarely positive depiction of capitalism and market economics in the process! In it we see Ryuusui get reborn in order to pilot a sailboat to the other side of the world, as well as help discover oil that would power the world in the days ahead. He might be money-hungry, but in doing so, he created this world's first currency -- the drago, which is backed by the promise of discovering oil that will be bought from him once he acquires the rights to it as part of the deal. See, the currency might have just been him stamping a desi…

Review: The buildup that season 3 will bring to the table was fantastic and fun, nothing that drags the show, it was nice pacing. Story: 9/10 Art: The art and animation are always consistent and quality, likewise. Ryusui's design was really sick. 9/10 Sound: The va for Ryusui is really good, he did a good job replicating his personality in the manga. The soundtrack is quality as always. 9/10 Characters: The thing about Dr.Stone that I wish to see more is the characters' interaction. The new character was really fun to watch and charming to watch. 8/10 Enjoyment: This special got me hyped for the next season especially at the turning climax for the season, it was quite enjoyable. 9/10 Overall: 8.5/10

This is Dr. Stone at its best. I felt a little disappointed by the 2nd season due to the science taking a back seat to mediocre action, but this got the show back on track. The new character, Ryuusui, was really interesting, and he added some pretty cool ideas into the world. The first thing the former multi-millionaire does after being stuck in stone for almost 3000 years is immediately create money and an economy. It's just great lol. The rest of the characters were as entertaining as ever, and the science was just as good as it was in the first season. Just a super fun hour of anime, and I can't wait for more. If the 3rd season is anything like this, it's going to be very good. I'm excited.
