It is Dr. Stone Do Mad MaxA huge highlight of this episode is the extreme tension, dynamic motorcycle chase that goes past Ecuador, where Senku and his partner tear up the landscape in desperate attempts War Gears– Style Lackeys. As we cannibalize their hull and engines to build new motorcycles of six brands, we remember Senku’s forward plan and sneaky talent. Part of the reason Senku’s allies were able to escape was because Senku destroyed Stanley’s plane by pouring sugar water into its engine tank. As he explained, this secret sabotage would not be immediately obvious, so it makes sense that the aircraft’s engine seizes the worst (best) time possible.
Without supremacy in the air, both Charlotte’s Stanley and the outstanding callipygian sniper can be shot in the dust cloud left by the escaped vehicle, although both physically strongest characters tsukasa and yoga took damage. Senku probably shouldn’t have succumbed to Xeno’s request to sit in a backward request, because despite being hit, he still managed to send a message to Stanley through Morse Code Whinks. Maybe there was dust in his eyes. I suspect he gave Stanley the coordinates of Senku’s ultimate destination, the zero ground of mass rays somewhere in the Amazon Basin.
Although the Chase sequence is the big core of the episode, the previous scenes are also interesting Dr. Stone Way. The poor little lab car finally came to an end with the sacrifice designed to delay the Senku pursuers, as it had sent the floating (unmanned) to the former location of the Panama Canal. Of course, after thousands of years of neglect, the canal will no longer pass, but Stanley’s Senku Bank believes that fleeing scientists may see the canal as a mode of transportation from the Pacific to the Atlantic Ocean. This gives Senku plenty of time to harvest rubber from the sap and provides potted tutorials on car tire production. I do like these real physical science inclusions, even after that they tend to disappoint me for hours on Wikipedia death spirals.
Everyone in the cast has a clear role, even though they are mostly comedians at this point. The once shocking Kohaku became some kind of juggling god with rubber stretch balls, while the pratsfall with Chrome’s elastic rubber panels is silly but fun. The adorable little Suika and new character Dr. Chelsea seem to combine a nice bond under the fixation of their shared gourd fruit, which is very sweet. Dr. Stone Nothing even if it’s not entertaining, and its science-based stupidity works well Mad Max– Style of action. I hope it keeps this weird momentum throughout the season.
