My thoughts:
I really enjoyed the first episode of Dr. Stone. It really shows the science part of anime that I’ve never seen with other IPs. I love the fact that the protagonist uses his brain or as he says above the neck and utilizes his companion to do all the work below the neck or all the tough work. It’s a really interesting start to the series and I’m looking forward to seeing a lot more. I’m interested to see if they will continue to show us ancient tips like the Mesopotamians used to distill alcohol or grapes into wine.
