Senku has been having a rough time attempting to bring back society after waking up in a brand new world. Thanks to being trapped inside of a stone prison with the rest of humanity, the young mad scientist has spent the better part of Dr. Stone attempting to forge a bright future using science. Unfortunately for him, there are quite a few players aiming to build their own versions of Earth’s future who aren’t quite as altruistic as the titular character. With Dr. Stone Science Future arriving early next year, a new trailer has shared the exact date for when we can expect the brainy anime adaptation to return.

Much like My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen, Dr. Stone’s anime is attempting to play catch up with its source material that has already ended. The Dr. Stone manga came to an end in 2022, as creators Riichiro Inagaki and Boichi not only revealed just what created the Stone World but also forged a future for the planet Earth in a world bereft of our current creature comforts. In Science Future, Senku is taking on a dark reflection of himself in the villainous Dr. Xeno, and from the trailer, it’s clear that Xeno is packing some serious heat. The Kingdom of Science has been working overtime to forge its own future and Senku and company are going to have to put in extra effort to combat it.

A Science Future in 2025
Dr. Stone Science Future will arrive in Japan on January 9th, but the entirety of the final season will be split into three unique sections. On top of attempting to stop Xeno’s efforts, Senku is looking to score a vital component to free humanity from their stone imprisonments. Considering that those trapped in stone are still cognizant of their surroundings thousands of years in the future, the Dr. Stone star is working hard to make sure that a bright future can be forged that is free of stone.
If you want to catch up on the first three seasons of the series, the episodes are currently available to stream on Crunchyroll. Considering there is no other series out there quite like Dr. Stone, the seasons are well worth your time.
Dr. Stone Sequel?
As of the writing of this article, there hasn’t been a hint as to Senku and company returning for a sequel series as Dr. Stone does have a fairly definitive ending. Even if we don’t see the series by Inagaki and Boichi make a comeback, the impact that the Shone Jump franchise has had on the anime world cannot be denied. While not focusing on transformations or power levels, Dr. Stone still has an engrossing story that is unlike any other anime story in the history of the medium.
