Dr. Stone: Science Future Part 3 Episode 1:
I am very glad that we are now entering the final conflict with everyone working together to reach the finish line. I liked the previous seasons but at some point I grew tired of the formula of reaching a new land and needing to battle the people there. This week's episode reminds me of why I love the first season so much with lots of quirky characters building up tech to reach an ambitious goal. Why Man finally being handled is also something I am quite excited about. |

Dr. Stone: Science Future Part 3 Episode 2:
Yeah, I am really liking this. Building up towards the moon trip, visiting all kinds of countries and teching up with resources at each one plus making use of all the (overly) talented people collected during the previous seasons. Using a ballistic missile was a bit much but thankfully there are no warmongers among the group... probably. |

Several times I have thought that it must suck to have some like Ryuusui in your family. This week that was proven correct. No wonder Sai was not happy when he was woken up, I look forward to them making a pc though. |

Dr. Stone: Science Future Part 3 Episode 4:
It always feels nice when a plan comes together and seeing all those familiar characters spread over three fronts working together is rather satisfying. The building of the computer was surprising (and horrifying given how much work it is) while the Nanami family story was effective (Ryuusui sucks at communicating). |

Dr. Stone: Science Future Part 3 Episode 5:
Some great moments this week. The calculator being finished was impressive, even more so due to Magma of all people being awed by what it can do and what that means. The rocket mission being a one way trip makes sense, no idea how Chrome and Suika are supposed to build a return shuttle together somehow. |

Especially since they don't know what all goes into making a space-worthy, human carrying ship in the first place. If they think they're just going to need a smaller version of the "to" capsule, that's a nope. And doing it without the main group's knowledge is even less workable. If they spring it on them at the last minute, everything from weight to flight paths will need to be recalculated, the latter due to the delay caused by the former.

Dr. Stone: Science Future Part 3 Episode 6:
I find myself being conflicted concerning the pacing of this final cour. On one hand I would like there to be some more slow moments so that the characters can take time to bond, especially since many of them have been statues for ten years. On the other hand, I like that the progress to build the rocket is briskl. If this season would follow the pacing of the first few seasons than reaching the moon would still take a looooong time. Since I am ready for the show to end I think I lean towards being mostly happy about the pacing. Nice to see so many familiar characters return. |

Dr. Stone: Science Future Part 3 Episode 8:
Time sure goes by fast, especially when you are trying to launch a satellite. Because of how brisk the pacing is this season it is easy to forget but the years are literally flying by. I like that their space operation hit a few snags. It would have felt strange/impossible if it had gone smoothly on their first try even with the experts they have. I also like how the no return aspect was handled, Chrome and Suika were never going to get to a solution by themselves. |

Agreed. Still, only 10 people got to vote on this? Yay democracy? It feels like there should be more people who are in on this, considering how many people have been working on it.
I wonder what that huge lake on the Canada/US border is? Did Yellowstone explode and undermine ND or did Lake Winnipeg burst an ice dam? Southern Africa is looking a bit ragged too. Also wondering how a huge inland sea formed in the Gobi Desert (elev 3-5000') and Mongolia. Oh Senku, don't reinvent the internet. It's probably why Why Man came after us in the first place. |

Dr. Stone: Science Future Part 3 Episode 9:
I think the 10 does not mean that only ten people total voted but rather the code used to represent the results. Given how many people were involved it would just not make sense otherwise. Episode 9 surprised me with the final selection of the people going to the moon. Senku going is no surprise, Dr. Stone not going on the final mission would have been absurd. Warrior and pilot wise it is surprising though. I fully expected Tsukasa to fill in the warrior spot but I suppose Kohaku has grown a lot during the conflicts. Biggest surprise is ''wanting it all'' Ryuusui seemingly reviving Stanley for the mission due to him having better skills. |

No, I think the idea is literally only the ten present got to vote because this episode, Dr Xeno announces to the "world" that only Senku's and his team members would be going, no discussion. Like that would have everyone going "ok, that makes sense..."  But talk nonsense, Dr X goes off saying they need to be prepared for many unknowns of this mission just after mentioning the crew would spend the voyage petrified. Why have a pilot except for the landing...? Trust automatic systems to do course corrections or is the concept the vehicle is remotely controlled...?
If anything happens, they lose the crew and the only working petrification device...only a genius....  And the author totally misses out on having Ryusui being awake to navigate by the stars like the old sailing vessels he loves did, because the Apollo missions used star-tracker navigation sets to do course corrections...

Dr. Stone: Science Future Part 3 Episode 10:
As this week's episode showed, it is best to not think too much about the logic of it all. Once you start questioning the sheer amount of resources used this cour for example you start to wonder, though I suppose the whole thing taking a significant number of years makes it a little bit more believable (though not a lot). Anyway, the rocket has launched and the moon mission has started. We will finally get an answer as to what or who Why Man is and it can not be anything else but aliens right? I for one would find it hard to believe that the whole spiel was caused by some human faction hidden away on the moon or something similar. |

Ep34-"Fagedaboudit" should be the title. Hmmm, they were supposed to assemble the vehicle in five parts in orbit, boosted on five rockets because they couldn't make one that had the lift, but here they made the one big one and are goin'...They had better hope nothing happens to that second stage, because if that explodes there is no way one could find the pieces scattered across 100's of miles of deep ocean water even if you had thousands of years to search the ocean bottom...
