As these new characters appear, Senku is determined to finally unravel the series’ biggest mystery.

How Is Dr. Stone Going to End?

The Dr. Stone manga finished its publication in 2022, and fans have been eagerly awaiting the anime adaptation of its ending. Now that Senku and the Kingdom of Science are investigating the origins of the petrification, they’re uncovering a larger mystery and preparing for a major, upcoming challenge.

Dr. Stone isn’t your typical action show, and its conclusion in Shonen Jump is also unique. The series constantly moves forward with new inventions as Senku tries to rebuild technology in the Stone World, making it hard to predict what a satisfying ending will look like. It will be interesting to see how anime fans react to it.
