Focusing on science in a world that is severely lacking in former modern miracles, Season 3, aka New World, will present the Stone World with a number of challenges.

The Dr. Stone manga has already come to an end, but the Dr. Stone anime still has some journey ahead of it, as Dr. Stone Season 3 will be sure to show. The last time we dove into the Stone World, it was thanks to a special one-shot that introduced us to a pirate named Ryusui in between seasons. The upcoming season is sure to drop some major revelations for those who have been following Senku since the beginning.
