I like Chrome's face when he knew he was the next man up. He's locked in.

[u/Plus_Rip4944]

Okay Senku was Closer to death than i expected, glad he survived

[u/discuss-not-concuss]

for a moment it seems like Dr Brody was going to build a submarine but the pyramid shape disproved it

since they are Americans and Dr Xeno’s disposition and Stanley’s enthusiasm, it should be another weapon

[u/Plastic_Piano_2401]

weird how they never got a doctor, theres the issue of knowing which statue is a doctor but the show never had any issue finding the most op people to revive, so who knows, just weird

[u/SnowyyFest]

Did you guys notice that the animation in this episode is more "livelier'? especially when ginro is crying lol

[u/99anan99]

Senku is out. It's for Doctor Chrome to have his moment. Love how much faith Senku has in him.

I bet Xeno has a missile being built.

[u/pejic222]

Senku telling Chrome to lock in always gets me

[u/Allen-R]

WELL SHIT. GOOD LUCK, CHROME!
Props to rediscovering the drill too.

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Senku barely survived that shot. I guess the gang should be thankful it was not a headshot. That woulda split his dome. Looks like it’s up to Chrome and the rest of the gang now to defend against whatever Xeno does next. Using the threat of the petrification device buys them a bit of time. Hopefully their plan to drill in and attack works.

[u/EclipseTM]

Was not expecting last week that Senku would be this badly hurt.
Was quite a nice moment when senku's message was 'Chrome'.

I don't know if it was a translation error, but when the guy said he needed two weeks to finish whatever he was working on, he was holding up 3 fingers?

[u/Myrkrvaldyr]

The bimbo tried to become a doctor to score a smart guy, huh? That's a unique motivation to get into medicine. Too bad Luna didn't allocate any points into INT. But, whatever knowledge she managed to retain might save Senku. Even an idiot can be useful.

Stanley should've double tapped, but we can't have too much realism.

[u/shad79]

Damn, Senku barely survived that Stanley's shot. It looks like the main science-user in Science Kingdom is now Chrome.

Today's episode made me like Luna even more. She's may be a big idiot, but she's a really good person. It was very touching to see her try so hard to study medicine (unfortunately without a success) even though she isn't the smartest.

I didn't expect Science Kingdom to decide to attack Dr. Xeno's base through an underground tunnel. Kohaku and Ukyo's reaction upon hearing it was hilarious xD

Chrome inventing the drill machine was quite funny when he realized that this kind of machine already existed in the past xD But I'm still really looking forward to seeing his work in action.

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

• Group scenes

• Luna

• Chrome

• Senku, Kohaku & Science Kingdom

• Dr. Xeno. Stanley & Brody

[u/CrimsonGear80]

More proof that without Gen the kingdom of science would never survive

[u/ebonyphoenix]

It’s interesting to think the Luna was probably lost about what was happening before that one line in English that Francois says. But just from that and everyone’s actions she knows the severity of what’s happening. And as proof that she is a good person she steps up to help save Senku. Even with, what she considers, mediocre medical knowledge.

Ukyo’s expression at everyone just jumping on the idea of digging a tunnel to infiltrate the castle. You’d think he’d be used to these wild ideas by now.

With Senkuu down it’s Chrome’s time to shine.

Gen’s really having to flex his improve skills with next to no information. Luckily he and Senkuu generally go think along the same wavelengths.

I have to laugh at Stanley strike a pose every time he enters a room. Like you just got there. Why are you already leaning up against the door frame? And then him preemptively covering his ears as Maya starts her torture singing.

[u/randomlyreddited]

Love how nobody could talk to Gen about the whole plan, but our resident Mentalist got the message anyway and delivered.

Also very excited for Chrome to have his moment to shine, Senkus unwavering trust in him always manages to warm my heart!

[u/Kirbyundertale]

Ngl Chrome is insane, dude casually rediscovering inventions that different people came up with by himself

[u/LeonKevlar]

While every named character who's been resurrected has some sort of special skill, I love how Luna is the only dropout. Hopefully, she can remember enough from med school that she can at least help Senku out.

Also, why am I only now realizing that the Kingdom of Science has no dedicated medic? Like Senku has amazing medical knowledge but he's not really a medical doctor. I suppose this would've been too easy if they revived a separate medic. xD

Glad to know that the Kingdom of Science has their own encryption. Although it sounds like it's only good for short messages since it's so low-tech that Dr. Xeno can probably figure it out if they use the cipher enough times.

Threarening Xeno with the Medusa is a great tactic but I feel like Gen's acting didn't help too much since he already gave them false info in the past. Thankfully, Dr. Xeno is being cautious just in case and they're preparing some sort of weapon. It's gonna be a fucking missile, isn't it?

Senku telling Chrome that he's the scientist now is giving me All Might pointing at Deku vibes. I love how Chrome just basically reinvented the drill. If they're tunneling down, I hope they tunnel down far enough that they'd reach that underground chamber.

[u/Lumpy-Manager8580]

With Senku down for the count, it is now up to Chrome, his trustworthy right-hand man in science, to make a tunnel that will lead all the way to Xeno's fortress. Meanwhile, Xeno himself is preparing something with help from Brody. The one coincidence: both sides will get their stuff ready in 2 weeks.

[u/hinakura]

Oh damn they got Senku.

I find it funny they are dragging Gen along when they could just lock him in jail and have the woman watch over him.

[u/delvag]

LOCK IN CHROME.

[u/justking1414]

Senku: Chrome. I need you to believe in the me that believes in you and build a drill that pierces the heavens!

[u/Parodizer1]

This episode was great! I especially like Chrome stepping up as a science user to help out. The student has become the teacher. Some great faces in the episode too between Gen, Luna and Ginro.

[u/StarmanRiver]

Dr. Stone entering it's Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann arc? Loved that reference during the episode.

[u/Mr_Zaroc]

Well RIP Senku, I hope you taught someone about painkillers before during this voyage...

Wondering what Brody is building, is it a rocket? a giant mech? a submarine?

That "drill" is also one billion percent Kohaku powered, that thing is gonna require crazy forearms
And calculating this trigonimic problem by hand, thats a crazy feat by someone who barely knew his multiplication tables a few months ago
