As much as I absolutely adore Dr. Stone, I am constantly bewildered by how blasé it is about its characters' competencies, capabilities, and proficiencies... and while the boys are certainly some of the worst offenders, I'm not sure it's even physically possible for Yuzuriha to be able to do some of the stuff she's "good at" doing.

Erm... I don't think it's possible for MOST of the characters, considering Senku is impossibly knowledgeable for his age, Tsukasa is impossibly strong and then you have other characters going beyond human limits in fighting, gymnastics... hearing... etc.

Personally I think that's part of the awesomeness of the story.

I am waiting for the part of the story in which it goes into a soft reboot as the current premise Dr. Stone has going for got me more interested then what it had originally.
