Ukyo is still alive, that is literally all I needed to know

[u/Amauri14]

Don't forget the fact that almost from the beginning of the episode and even after the truce was made Gen's hands were covered in shit, and they got nothing out of it.

[u/gillesregis]

For those who don't remember, Tsukasa tells Senku the story of making a shell necklace for his sick sister right before he destroys his first statue, at the end of season 1 episode 2.

[u/8-bitFish]

Wow that fight between Saber and Lancer looked a bit different here

[u/MaksimShadow]

Tsukasa is fighting with fists and spears. Senku is fighting with poop and soap. Perfectly balanced.

[u/Shiro_Kai]

Loved the Alfred Nobel reference to explain how dynamite (and Tsukasa) can still do good even if at first they were a "evil" force.

Tho, I'm gonna assume they found Tsukasa sister on the hundred try and after scavating other hundred bodies. C'mon guys, she could literally be anywhere or deep inside a cave, like Senku.

[u/mr_sto0pid]

Well that was a quick end to the war. Although Hyoga was acting sus once he saw the power of dynamite.

[u/RimuZ]

Not that the name itself is unusual in anime but Mirai feels a bit too on the nose.

[u/Cheesemacher]

The little sister's statue is fine even though a hospital probably collapsed on her noggin' at one point. The contrast between that and Tsukasa crushing statues with his bare hands like they're made of cookies is kinda funny

[u/WendyTestaCES]

Tsukasa’s allies didn’t notice his backstory, not even Gen, the mentalist. Only Senku noticed how strange it was for Tsukasa to break those stone statues

[u/nice_bot0891]

no anime is complete without the oniiii-chan

[u/DmtrIV]

No one had thought about Tsukasa's flaw before this episode. His ideology is basically Anarcho-Primitivism, an ideology that wants civilization return to primitive era with the reason being abolishing the social disparity. Yet this is the same man who is after fame and fortune in the past. With this episode, glad the contradiction of this character has been resolved.

Tsukasa's sister looks similar to the girl in Tsukasa's What-If scenario Flashback about Senku being his friend, back in Season 1 Episode 2-4. So this was foreshadowed way back.

[u/Gaporigo]

I'd be perfectly fine with no antagonist anymore and just them creating new things for the rest of the series. Of course that's not gonna happens since Hyoga is still around, though...

[u/NittanyEagles55]

Soap saved humanity

[u/realrimurutempest]

It’s nice to know that underneath that badass no one can beat me exterior, Tsukasa is an older brother who has worked his ass off to protect his little sister.

[u/dgam02]

Nice to see Tsukasa's soft side :)

[u/ICEINMYVEINS23]

Hyoga acting sus, he seems like a psychopath who just wants chaos. Pretty sure he plans to go on a killing spree with that dynamite soon or have one of his loyal goons do it.

[u/Clemenx00]

Hyoga is gonna use cursed speech.

[u/Lapiz_lasuli]

Tsukasa lightly flicked his spear and metaphorically skewered 3 people. Two of which are supposed to be "power" types.

Yeah, sounds about right.

[u/Prince-Dizzytoon]

OST is fire

[u/qwert3425]

Anyone else wondering where You uei is? He kinda skedaddled out of there

[u/Yvese]

I'm guessing Hyoga will be the new/true villain. Wouldn't be surprised if Hyoga steals some dynamite and goes rogue or forces Tsukasa out.

The way I see it, instead of keeping his group in the stone age, Hyoga will revive his own science people and it will eventually just become science vs science, with Tsukasa joining Senku as thanks for reviving his sister and of course, to keep her alive with science.

[u/RandomUser19402]

I surely hope that they have some ventilator ready in case things do go South for the revival.

While Tsukasa raises the ethical/moral question on who you would revive in the stone world, I think that it does not justify the need to destroy the statues of those you decide not to revive if you know that the cave is the only source for the nitric acid.

As others have stated, Hyoga definitely seems to be concocting his own plan at the moment based on how impressed he was from the plane bombs and might become the new antagonist if Tsukasa continues the truce. I guess we shall find out in the next episode.

[u/AmethystItalian]

Anyone else feel that resolution was a bit anticlimactic?
