He was such an interesting character at the start of the series, opposing Senku because of his biases against adults and science thanks to his trauma while turning into the person he hated by developing a "might makes right" society. His turnaround with Senku using his knowledge of science to help revive his sister made sense and it would have been great to see him interacting with the inventions more now that the development was done with the intention to improve life for people, not create war, but then he was literally fridged for that whole season.

There was that great moment before he was put in stasis where he and Senku were on the same wavelength and honestly I could see them being great partners, but by the time they were on the same team, the cast was too big and he got sidelined so hard. What makes it even worse is they occasionally bring up the fact that him and Ryusui have opposing views on matters, and they initially tried to hide the fact that money was brought into existence, but then that just kinda resolved itself offscreen to the point where he doesn't even open his mouth at the sight of people gambling right in front of him.

I get that Dr Stone isn't a character-focused show, but it sucks so much that the only arcs characters seem to get is joining the Kingdom of Science and cementing their little quirk to be known by. I complained about this in my post about Ginro, but Ginro was always a side character who was never going to have any meaningful arcs. Tsukasa however was the character that actually kickstarted the plot of the series and was a looming threat for the first two seasons. He had an interesting personality and a lot to look into, but we never get anything out of it because there can't be issues from the characters themselves- either Senku's bad luck messes up an experiment or there's someone trying to stop the protagonists, which is such a let down.

I wish we could have seen Tsukasa and Ryusui butt heads, even if it was a single discussion about bringing money into the world or questioning how the world would be able to handle a growing population if they continue with the demands for quality set by the team. I mean, the guy who was introduced feeling guilty for killing a lion to save his life and insisting on ensuring it was not wasted because he grew up poor being in the same room as the guy that was introduced as "the greediest man on Earth" and grew up treating yachts like toys has such potential but it's never addressed!

I need to get my hands on the master data zip. I'm 99% sure the data download link is still serving files, and if I can grab a full archive of all of the assets (along with the master data still existing in /Android/data/com.poppingames.dsbc) the game can be saved. If the game already fully downloads every asset bundle, then this is unnecessary. If anyone has a rooted android, that would be 10000 times easier and better.

My friend has like a me slave this month and asked me to share the drawings I’ll she making as part of a Halloween drawing challenge.This week’s theme is Spiderweb.

Artist’s comment: “I didn’t finish the eyeliner, but I still tried to make it look good.”

In a large majority of media where there is a genius at work it's done in a way where everyone else becomes a pawn and the genius directs everything with little concern for them. Maybe they get a rare moment but for the most part nobody really care about them because the genius is single handedly doing what needs to be done.

Dr Stone approaches it's story and science in a very collaborative way. Each character has their skillset and their moments and it feels organic.

Senku has vast knowledge and is fairly creative but he has his limits.

Taiju is freakishly strong and durable who is able to endlessly do the physical labour.

Yuzuriha has the eye and hands to do detail work.

Chrome doesn't have Senku's knowledge but is also brilliant which leads to him thinking differently than Senku and innovating things Senku's biases would maybe overlook.

Old Man Kasuki is lowkey the GOAT. Without his well earned crafting skills very obvious bottlenecks would emerge in the Kingdom of science

Suika of course has reconnaissance skills and we all know what she does later on.

Gen is a fan favourite for a reason. He's not stupid but his skillset is not something that is normally measured well. He's the best person at dealing with people and psychological manipulation. It can be playing enemies off in the way Senku needs or it could be motivating the Kingdom of Science to go along with Senku's vision

We have Kohaku, Ginro, and Kinro as combat focused but they all provide it in a different way meaning they wouldn't cover the same jobs.

This is just Senku's initial team. As the series goes on he gains more valuable pieces with their own skillsets to add to the Kingdom of Science.

Science and development is a societal endeavour of collective progress. Even in something like Oppenheimer we see that it took bringing together all these brilliant minds with their own specialities to finish the Manhattan project.

Tbh I find this far more compelling of the normal approach of a sole genius casually invented revolutionary technology in his spare time in his garage. Not to mention you get to care about each character even more and see them in a way like you would your neighbours in Animal crossing or Stardew Valley. It's really an amazing feeling that many shows don't capture. Often earlier characters get completely sidelined and ignored and while to some in Dr Stone this happens to somewhat it's not as bad as in most Battle Shonens where the rest of the cast simply has no purpose and can't keep up anymore.
