Doctor Fact-Checks Dr Stone Anime

[@docoffcall]

⬇️⬇️⬇️What's your favourite of Senku's discoveries? Let me know ⬇️⬇️⬇️

[@researcherchameleon4602]

You missed a few key bits of information by not watching the full anime, for example, when Senku gives the “Love Potion” to Taiju, he dumps it into the sink, saying that he doesn’t need cheap tricks, after Taiju leaves the room, he reveals to the other classmates that love potions don’t exist, and in fact, what he gave Taiju was gasoline that he refined from plastic bottle caps

[@researcherchameleon4602]

As a doctor, you are probably too busy to watch the full anime, but it would help if you reviewed a show with someone who was a fan

[@researcherchameleon4602]

The reason why Senku didn’t give Tsukasa anesthesia was because they didn’t have any, and the process of making some would take too long, and when Senku froze Tsukasa, Tsukasa was dead, the internal logic of the show says that the petrification can heal surrounding tissue, when Tsukasa killed Senku, he was clinically dead for several hours, but because a portion of his neck was still petrified, pouring some revival fluid on it healed the surrounding tissue, bringing him back from the dead

[@kodytiffany5686]

When it comes to Caffine. I can drink a Monster and sleep within a half hour just fine. However I found out that "Redline" is dangerously potent stuff. 368mg of caffeine in a container the size of a milk box practically. That is to say around 12 oz. Monsters that are 16oz having 160. I did not read the Redline the first time I drank one and almost had to go to the hospital. My Heart started going out of sync as I was laying down to sleep; so lots of water later I was fine again. Now I warn everyone that if you read "Red line" it states that 2 doses are in each of those small containers and even at that 184mg is a serious amount of caffeine given the size of dose. Now I seek the Caffine count each time I try a new energy drink.

Remember with Tsukasa's sister (braindead) that if she were still alive when petrified, coming out of the petrification has a side effect of healing the body as well. Eventually that becomes the source of the "Dr. Stone" name. The same with Tsukasa's cold sleep... they're going to find the means to petrify him and use that to heal the body.

​@@lotusanime8477 SPOILERS for the second part of this comment: Thing is, it was revealed later on in the manga that they are still thinking about how the cryosleep worked despite Senku knowing he virtually killed Tsukasa. After the South American War, and they pulled off a hail mary, it was revealed that many of them who would die, or have already died, also came back with them. Revealing that the petrification is actually a form of immortality, reviving and restoring cells that would otherwise be dead.

I like how most of the logic fails were due to the petrification-related shenanigans explained in the show.

[@Vekcrazah]

that's because that's the only claim of fantasy the show ever had during its run. It staked its philosophy in real world science, but to create intrigue, they have to create "new" science for Senku to explore, with repercussions that constantly ripple through real world science, but not necessarily render most of it useless. It's amazing.

@@Vekcrazah in the manga they get a hold of one of the devices that does it. and it's very sci-fi. like they fell from the sky onto an island, and you just need to say out loud the size of the petrification, and how long until it goes off. after reviving Tsukasa the last device on earth is out of battery. but Senku takes it apart and can see very detailed circuity he doesn't understand. also we find out that the person that makes the devices could be on the moon, since Senku makes a radio and gets a signal he traced to the moon. so the final invention of the show is a space ship.

[@cooliceprincess2641]

To anyone wondering how Senku could count the seconds for 3700+ years, remember that the show's sci-fi petrification made your body FULLY turn to stone. You're not just covered in it. That means your senses are shut down, your bodily functions all shut down (no pain, exhaustion, nor hunger), including hormones--which means emotions are also shut down. The brain is only active as far as sending electrical signals to think. That makes the fact that he stays sane and so focused on his counting more believable. In that state, you are solely a being of thought. You won't be able to get scared, much less panicked, nor get depressed. In theory, in that state you will be able to continue thinking without mental repercussions. There are no outside input to distract you from your line of thought either. The only downside is the urge to go into hibernation. In Senku's case, he chose to focus on counting (and cataloging data regarding the petrification at the early stages) to push through the urge. Spoiler territory, though not regarding the main series: In a spin-off manga, the Byakuya Reboot (which isn't technically canon, but canon-adjacent), Byakuya mentioned that Senku had attempted to count the seconds when he was 6 years old. He succeeded doing it for a month. This proves that the series does take into account the realism of this feat. If you try doing this at a normal state, you will have to divide your brain power between the counting itself, your daily activities, and the need for rest. Hence, 6 y/o Senku was only able to do it for a month. A mind-boggling feat, of course, especially for a 6 y/o, but comparing it to the Guinness world record mentioned in this video, that feat is still within the realm of possibility.

[@konaqua122]

Not everything is shut down. The brain is not but all the senses are. Think of it as being in a sensory deprived environment. No sound, no light, no touch, no nothing. But it doesn't mean you cannot think. It's like sleeping but you're conscious. As to how they survive, I feel it somehow has the idea of hibernation. Since all organs in the body are currently off and the only thing on is the brain, the body doesn't need that much energy to burn. Think of it as a cellphone that is idle. Since the phone isn't used, the battery stays longer.

[@yajurraghavan4193]

Also in the manga it is mentioned that (i think this is spoiler, but i'll try to keep it to pure facts): the process of petrification takes the body to near perfection. so yes, its possible that you have a perfect state of mind and body.

[@Nancydrew301]

@@yajurraghavan4193 Something less spoiler related, Senku does mention early on in the series that the reason he thought he had survived that need for the fluid used to un-petrify everyone else is because his brain had been using up the petrification stone leaving it nothing but a dry husk after some good ol' bat guano. That's why, at first, he thought that was all that the others needed to come back to life. Not everyone is as crazy about counting 3700+ years worth of seconds like you, Senku XDDD

[@tastypig9008]

@doc.offcall 0:45 He said the love potion was fake after you need to have more context. 1:22 Also he was able to count because the stone he and the rest of the world was in is like "magic". 22:15 They could heal her from being brain dead because again she was in the "magic" stone. 22:50 He was stabbed through the lungs so it was instant, again you need to have more context, they say its the lungs after. 25:10 They could freeze him because he was going to die anyway. While he is frozen they are trying to find out what was the green light that turned everyone to stone so they can perify him while also healing him after because again "magic" stone. Again you need to have more kontext.

[@Shalakor]

Even discounting lack of context, still a HUGE miss on his part to assume the heart was pieced. That'd be a perfect opportunity to point out that the heart being in the left side of the chest is only its common placement. In individual anatomy, where someone's heart actually sets can very by a surprisingly wide margin from person to person. The left-center placement is still so common that it's a safe bet for an assassin to strike at (particularly since there's still the lung ripe for puncturing like in this instance), but it is in no way a guarantee the heart will be there or that you'll hit it.

The parts for example about Tsukasa being frozen were indeed addressed seconds later in that same scene. Senku admits that they're murdering Tsukasa in order to preserve his body so when they found out how to petrify people they could do it to him then revive him and he'd be fine.

In the show Senku does call it murder, because of what was explained, not having a way to bring them back.

Senku, after becoming petrified, wanted to remain conscious by counting each second. He spent about 3700 years petrified until he became unpetrified. he counted every single second, consciously, or unconsciously during small amounts of a few seconds long micro-sleeps. 3700 years is 116,683,200,000 seconds. He counted over a hundred BILLION seconds quasi-awake, for 3700 years. Every single one of them. To maintain consciousness for even an entire week is literally a death sentence, even if you ate and drank healthily, and did not exert your body physically. This implies, that a mind like Senku's could remain conscious in a non-organic state as nothing but electricity, or as electrical impulses in the petrified brain itself, focused on nothing but counting and thinking. In reality? Ten Billion percent bullshit. But for Senku? 10B% easy as 3.14. So, yeah, he developed synesthesia to be able to count numbers without using linguistic vocal thinking, no other way could he have done it really.

Really enjoyed this. Honestly, the only things youve knocked their science for has actual explanations in the show. The reason the little sister is revived and they believe they can save Tsukasa is because when they undo the petrification, the "broken" or "damaged" parts of the body are repaired using the leftover stone in their structures. Its why they all have those black "cracks" on their bodies. (Its also how Senku survives the cervical attack because he still had stone covering that part of his body) So as long as you dont die from natural causes, you can essentially repair the damage if they keep your body preserved.

[@hi00118]

Also, if I understood it correctly, Tsukasa was actually dead when Senku put him into cold sleep.

Thank you. You are the first person I found in this comment that remembered that Tsukasa did die before being put into the 'fridge', and while Senku was willing to put Tsukasa in there alive, knowing it would kill him, that part ended up not mattering as he essentially succumbed to his injury at that point during their final conversation.

Not even a decent video, what are you on about? He clearly didn't even watch the show, since every logic "fail" was explained later on often in the same episode as a joke or a lie. He didn't even watch the first episode since the "love potion" got explained to be gasoline in the same episode😂 terrible video.

I guess it was inevitable that you would end up doing a video on this anime. The stuff you mentioned about the blacklight was pretty interesting, and definitely out of left field 😆. If you do end up watching Dr Stone Season 3, make sure you first watch the Dr Stone: RYUSUI special, which follows on from Season 2. The special covers essential plot that doesn't get recapped at the start of Season 3. Edit: Huh, guess my hunch was right that this isn't your first video on Dr. Stone. Shouldn't have doubled-guessed myself...

[@justinanderson8667]

what he did to tsukasa is put him in cold sleep right when he died, thats why it was so emotional. also because he wants to find the way people were petrified to petrify him again and bring him back since coming back from petrification heals most injuries so idk if he will actually be alive or not when he becomes unpetrified but its all just a gamble.

[@adox5042]

You forget the fact that in the story they mention how the petrification has a weird side effect of healing injuries/conditions that a person had prior to the petrification. So the girl's brain death was actually reversed because of the petrification and therefore they can bring her back

Saddest thing about the doctors who did autopsies then delivered babies without washing their hands is what happened to Semmelweis. Death rates plummeted after he made his doctors wash their hands, and despite the massive impact he was still made a laughingstock and ultimately driven mad, then left to die in an insane asylum. They made his life hell just because he suggested that even "gentlemen" like doctors might need to wash their hands from time to time.

Its really cool honestly how any inaccuracies made were either due to being an anime protagonist and having the superhuman powers to do that, or the fact that you can come back from death in Dr Stone. I think however 1-shotting a lion is pretty unrealistic

[@therobens22]

If I'm not wrong in the manga they mention that the author asked an actual scientist to fact check the manga

[@Ruffy611]

You disagreed on the Cryostasis thing on the end with the reasoning that you need to be dead but Senku actually waited until Tsukasa was Clinically dead before he put him in the chamber, only then he put him inside so he actually did nothing wrong. With the Braindead Sister of Tsukasa, befor she was Petrified, sche was on all the Machines that kept her alive, the petrification then put her in a state of selfsustainment even with being Braindead and then being healed from the Petrification also had the effect to heal the Brain, it wouldnt be possible in real life because nothingike that exists so its actually dofficult to rate it because its fantasy but thats how it worked at least in the Anime.

[@patricknisius7457]

here's the thing. i really like how you explained everything and most of them i already knew which made me learn even a bit more, but there are parts where the plotline play a big part in the development. for example the Cryo-Sleep of Tsukasa. In the anime Senku mentioned that he has to kill him before reviving him with the petrification which means Tsukasa was already a few minutes dead when he was put into the ''Fridge''. It would be the same procedure as with Mirai (his younger sister that was shown as brain dead) Of course it is a highly fictional event because of the petrification but if we put it into that reality that they live in it would be possible. it all connects with the petrification that connects broken cells again and makes it ''possible''. Sure in our modern Society we won't encounter it for now because theres no such petrification. But still thank you for that fun video

[@ap7635]

I feel like a lot of the lost points here ignore the existence of petrification in the show and how it can undo all illnesses and injuries.

I loved your video, because many things that happen in Dr. Stone are explained very quickly in order to advance the story, and of course that's fine, but that's why I liked watching your video that deepens the explanations that Senku gives us and even gives us historical background.

[@zemat762]

nice video, only thing that maybe you missed was the reason why they had no problem on freezing tsukasa, you said there wasn't a way to bring him bacck to life after, but the petrification has another effect, that being the "ability to heal every wound in the body", so even tho some choices aren't possible in reality many of theirs are abided by that help. same goes for tsukasa's sister that was said to be brain dead, the petrification was able to heal that as well.

for those watching 0:40 out of context he he was joking about having created a love potion, and had instead created synthetic gasoline from bottle caps-- he was teasing his friend, who was much less intelligent than he was, and who wanted to ask someone out. He did this as he knew his friend was too honorable and headstrong to cheat in getting a partner and he was right on the mark.

[@KingJH0510]

22:22 i think you shouldnt take points away here Because the petrification and depetrification has healing properties like how it was able to revive senku earlier in the video Theres a good chance it can even reverse brain death Same goes with putting tsukasa in cryosleep Tsukasa would die soon if left alone, but putting him him cryosleep allows them to possibly use the petrification to bring him back to life It was also done with tsukasa's consent so its fine

In the anime Senku said that this might turn into murder if he tries to preserve him because the secret have not been found out yet.

[@griffcrit9905]

I feel like it deserves a higher rating for accuracy when we use the petrification-like affect since it's shown to have regenerative/restoration abilities when fixed again It may not be real science but they do say otherwise the effects gained before would indeed be irreversible, so I believe it should get a pass on that. Other notes would be that I think the spear is low enough it missed the heart but was still fatal. I also would like to point out they didn't have aesthetics but Tsukuna was already trained to the very bone to have impeccable endurance.

[@Doggof2p]

Just remember that its anime and not irl, so basically the score comes out at around 95%

[@Ciekawostkioporanku]

On the points where you subtracted the points - there is a logical explanation to them in the manga. In the next sentence I will spoil it (so don't read it you don't want to get spoiled). The petrification is done by nanobots. Dr Stone is essentially a case of "Grey Goo Scenario", where microscopic robots multiply, and cover the entire world, entering the cells of humans (and sparrows) to modify them. They are programmed to heal humans on a cellular level, but something went wrong.

[@NotKiiro]

I want to correct you. This'll include major spoilers from the manga. The petrification wave is not composed of "nanobots". The light is, as far as I know, just an indicator of the affected area. On that note, the light can be commanded to cover a certain amount of area so it's definitely not self-multiplicating. The petrification is caused by sentient 6cm extrasolar mobius strip-shaped devices, which is definitely not microscopic in any means. "The petrification waves, which trigger an elemental phase change appear as light on the visible spectrum only to the chosen targets" If I remember correctly, this is the only line which explains what the light actually is. How the devices petrify organic molecules is by manipulating the higgs boson field, which is what give "things" their mass. In doing so they give the targeted organisms' increased resistance via the higgs boson thus turning them into stone. I also want to mention that the petrification really MEANT to petrify humans (& swallows). To the sentient devices, petrification is an escape from death, a way to achieve immortality. Which is also the reason why petrification heals damage in the body. By petrifying intelligent life and giving them the feel of immortality, more petrification devices are made and they are able to multiply. When petrified, life can actually get out of it relative to the amount of brain power used. Once de-petrified, they are supposed to want to be petrified again and thus re-creating the petrification devices. That is the true nature of the petrification devices

[@BearsterGaming]

[@scottconnatser4626]

To be fair Tsukasa WAS dead when Senku froze his body and you deducted points for things that are explained as the healing properties of them being petrified. We all know brain dead means vegetable but the show says once they break out of the petrification whatever was wrong is healed so you shouldn't have deducted points for fantasy in my opinion but I did enjoy the reaction to the show

It actually happens sometimes if you get a shot full of antibiotics or something similar. I myself once had a really bad infection when I was a kid (have no idea what it was but my mom did say it could have killed me) and after they gave me the antibiotics I got worse for not even a day or so and then slowly I got better. Viruses and infections work by taking over healthy cells and spreading them from one to the other. When you introduce something that prevents that the virus essentially doubles down and goes into a frenzy trying to keep itself alive. Thus the getting worse before you get better part

The last one is very unfairly rated. You don’t watch these scenes with context at all. They do know they can’t revive tsukasa after freezing him, but hope to find a way while he’s frozen.

[@Mythos_Thunder]

To be fair The majority of the injuries and freezing that happens in Dr Stone is based around the fact that the petrification process also induces a rapid regeneration effect. That's what allowed Senku to survive Tsukasa's strike to the neck, Mirai's brain was regenerated as well, and the idea behind freezing Tsukasa was to try and find a way to petrify him on command so they could use the Petrification's overpowered healing effect. In later seasons, we even see Senku and crew reassemble Statues and revive them from petrification despite the number and sizes of the fragments. The fact that they know that the revival process can heal just about any damage is what allows them to be so reckless in their treatment of permanent or even lethal damage.

[@thecrochetkind]

Super glue contains acrlyocyanate, and it causes cell death. That being said, you'll probably lose the layer of flesh it's put on anyway, so it's an excellent immediate suture.

As a botanist I noticed a BIG error in the first season. It regards the recipe Senku uses to make the cola for Asagiri. The recipe itself is absolutely fine (as in it actually will make exactly what they say it will, if you get it right.)The problem is that there is almost no way Senku would have been able to GET one of those ingredients, namely, the lime juice. By "lime" I assume that they meant what most of us would think of as a lime, that is the Persian or Tahitian lime, Citrus x. latifolia. This is a hybrid (most modern citruses are). In and of itself that isn't a problem. The problem is that the Persian lime is a TRIPLOID hybrid (It has 3 sets of chromosomes, as opposed to 2). And, as any plant scientist knows, when you have a plant with an odd number of sets, it is wholly, or at least nearly, sterile. That's actually how me make things like seedless watermelons, we cross a 2n with a 4n and the resultant seeds are 3n and wont produce seeds of their own, usually. The general lifespan of a Persian Lime tree maxes out at about 150 years, so no trees that were alive at the time of the fossilization would still be alive (and, while you certainly CAN grow a lime tree from a sucker, they generally don't sucker themselves all that heavily in nature, so some sort of a natural clone of a clone of a clone etc. is unlikely. Limes also don't usually make seeds, and, if they do, those seeds will basically be reversions to one of the parent species, so no longer what we would consider a Persian Lime. The only loophole I can find for this is if what Senku found was a MEXICAN, or Key Lime (Citrus x aurantifolia). THOSE are diploid (and one of the ancestors of the Persian). and so produce PLENTY of seeds. But they also taste quite different from the lime we know (almost more like a lemon) so the recipe might not work right with them. Ditto the other "limes" from the area like the Makrut (Citrus Hystix) and the Rangpur (Citrus x limonia, which is more like a very sour orange.) Given that they caught this fact with the cherry trees (that, since the Japanese Blossoming Cherry doesn't make fruit, it would be extinct) but missed it with the limes.

One thing I find to be neat is a number of the inaccuracies can be explained by the story’s inciting fantastical element; the petrification light. Real life modern medicine wouldn’t have been capable of healing Mirai’s brain death. But the process of being revived from stone has proven to revive people who were already completely brain dead by any modern standard (their entire body, brain and all, had become lifeless stone). And it had also restored major damage such as the death-blow Tsukasa gave to Senku. It was a gamble in the story, but with thought given to what the revival process can do. And it’s a similar thing with the cryogenic freezing. Senku admits a few times that what he’s doing is much more like killing Tsukasa and preserving his body. Their one hope of saving his life is to preserve him long enough to find the source of the petrification, use it on him, and then revive him to restore his body from the injuries he suffered.
