"I've forgotten how I used to look."

Throws this at you and runs away

I WANNA ADD SOMETHING TO THIS BECAUSE MY GOD YOURE SO RIGHT

I think a really interesting moment in the manga is when Suika saves Charlotte in the Amazonas.

(for me Suika counts as an Ishigami because come on, That's Senku's baby! He's her big brother and she's his little sis!!!)

Suika have always seen Senku as an older brother/kind of parental figure in the same way she always saw Kohaku as an older sister/kind of mother figure. As you said, he's one of the first persons who saw her behind the melon mask and make her feel included by allowing her to help them, even if it was with something she didnt have experience with and had never heard of in her entire life: science.

By Senku's hand, Suika discovered the wonders of science. She saw first hand how it was able to help the helpless, how even in the darkest of times it always bathed everything with its light, and she fell in love with it too. The little girl who craved to help people discovered the ultimate tool to do so. And following Senku's example, she was going to give it to every person she encountered in her way.

On the other hand there's Charlotte. A woman who doesn't speak a word of Suika's languaje and has strict orders of murdering everything and everyone she finds in her way. Suika has already seen the danger the americans represent. They attempted and almost succeded in killing the man she considers her best friend. It will be infinitely better for her and her family(i'm sure she sees everyone in the kingdom of science as her family) if they dissapeared, right?

But then Charlotte is bitten by the poisonous spider. She is alone and helpless in the middle of a giant forest who doesnt spare anyone, not even the most loyal of soldiers. And Suika knows Senku would never turn his back at someone who is suffering on their own like that. Suika knows she's her enemy. She knows that, if the situation was reversed, probably no one on Stanley's team would have helped her because for them, she's just one of the kids who interfere with Xeno's plan. She's to blame for Stanley's king to be away from him even if they were the ones who didnt left Senku other choice. For them, they're nothing but rocks in Stan's boots and he is more than willing to flat them into dust in order to have his anchor back. But she doesn't care. When she saw Charlotte in the floor, crying in pain and fear while the poison traveled throught her veins, Suika didnt see her as her enemy, but rather as a woman who needed the kind of help she was able to give, the kind of help science was able to gift.

The Ishigamis and The Gifts of Science

Dr. Stone is a love letter to humanity and its sciences. The main character, Senku, often acts averse to all forms of affection, and the only love he doesn't deny is his love for science. But Senku is so so full of love. He just expresses it in a way other than physical touch or words of affirmation. He gives.

But let's go back to the one who taught him so– Byakuya Ishigami, his father. The love of Senku's life.

Byakuya is introduced in the tenth chapter of the manga as a dotting father who sells his car to present Senku with scientific instruments he will need for a more efficient research. This car is Byakuya's means of transportation, and given that he is crying and shaking in this scene, it could not have been easy for him to lose it. But his love for Senku is so big, that he wants to support his son's passion even if it means sacrificing a great convenience for him.

And Senku? Senku truly fell in love with science at this moment.

If there is anything that Senku is, he is Byakuya Ishigami's son through and through. They may seem like two very different people, as Byakuya is an openly affectionate guy while Senku is more closed off with showing his true emotions. But Senku takes more from Byakuya than not, and one of them is by showing his love and/or care for others through giving the gifts of science.

And it starts with Byakuya.

[Bodysuit Acquired!]

Byakuya had failed his first attempt at being an astronaut ten years back, but he doesn't give up and tries again. Senku then creates a bodysuit that manipulates muscle movement to help Byakuya pass his swimming test. And while the bodysuit doesn't quite help Byakuya to swim, the thought Senku had put into it had motivated Byakuya more than ever to pass the test. This is one of the fundamentals of gifting– sometimes, it really is the thought behind it that matters.

This motivation is what Byakuya credits during his interview with JAXA for passing the tests. He understands that Senku might not have given him any words of encouragement, but this bodysuit was all the words that were needed between them. Senku wants Byakuya to achieve his dreams just as badly. It's the way Senku shows his love for his father.

And it's the way Senku shows his love for others too.

[Glasses Acquired!]

One of the primitive aspects of the Ishigami village is that it considers bad eyesight as a type of "disease". Fuzzy disease, to be exact.

Suika wears a melon mask at all times to help clear her eyesight, which Senku later reveals is due to the pinhole effect. She, however, has never told Senku or the others about having the fuzzy disease. Senku himself notes how odd it is for her to wear a melon around, and confronts her about it once he decides to create glass. This is one of the most beautiful scenes in Dr. Stone, as Suika finds out that her disease was never a disease, and is finally able to see as clearly as the others. Senku basically gives her perfect eyesight, something she didn't even know was possible before.

[Antibiotics Acquired!]

One of the most beloved people in this village is the priestess, Ruri. Two of Senku's new friends, Kohaku and Chrome are deeply affected by her unknown fatal disease. Senku is such a person who would help a stranger even if there is no benefit to do so (though he would never admit to it), what more a person who his new friends truly love and care about. He cures Ruri of pneumonia, giving her a chance to live a life without the worry of it being her last day every day.

[Cola Acquired!]

Senku forms an alliance with Gen, who plays the role of Tsukasa's spy, for the promise of a bottle of cola. Both Senku and Gen are aware that the cola is only a front for Gen's loyalty to Senku and the Kingdom of Science, for Gen needs his superficial reputation as a comfort and cannot simply join them if there is no personal benefit for him to do so.

This cola is also the first gift post-petrification that Senku brands himself on, probably because it represents the first gift that is not out of necessity and leans toward a comfort/luxury that they both used to enjoy in the modern world.

For a modern man such as Gen, drinking his favourite soda in the stone world might have been one of the happiest days in his life.

[Cotton Candy Acquired!]

Senku cares about people so much, even if the people in question have tried to kill him. Senku sees Homura as a soldier who is merely following the orders given by her leader, but he also sees the Homura as a lonesome girl sitting by herself on trees day and night.

As usual, Senku hides his kindness and care by showing an evil ulterior motive, such as turning Homura to their side using the cotton candy, but Ruri points out that this is a facade. Similarly to Gen, a person with such an ego is unable to seem as if he is doing something good out of the kindness of his heart.

[Stove Acquired!]

As winter approaches, the elders in the village are worried about losing people to the cold. Senku hears about this and creates a stove which has a multi-purpose of cooking and also radiating heat for the people to stave off the coldness of winter. And speaking of winter...

[Christmas Acquired!]

Senku hangs up lights in the tree for the "light bulb test" on a random night. Except the date isn't random at all and he drops enough hints for Gen to catch on that it is the night of Christmas. The significance of the day is only appreciated by Gen and himself, as they are the only modern timers in the village. It is for the sake of nostalgia, but Senku would rather be caught dead than admit that he is a sentimental guy with such irrational feelings.

And well, it all comes back to that scene with Byakuya, doesn't it? If you recall, Byakuya calls himself "Santa" while giving the scientific presents to the young Senku. This indicates Senku received them during Christmas. Which means... Christmas is a sentimental day to Senku and his father. An anniversary of Senku receiving his Christmas presents from Byakuya, which led to his deeper dive into his science obsession. The beginning of it all, one would say.

And even though he's dead and buried, Byakuya never stops giving. He gives Senku the Ishigami village to provide Senku with allies. He gives Senku Lillian's music, because he believes in the light of music and understands the importance of media to society. He collects platinum till his last breath, because he believes that Senku will need it someday. Byakuya keeps on giving to Senku, because his love for his son is so huge and unconditional. And because he promised.

Surely, there is no greater love in the manga than Byakuya's love for his son and Senku's love for his father. Byakuya could easily win ten billion best father awards... well, not like there's much competition for that in shounen mangas.

Do we ever think about how gen gifted senku the most personal thing he could possibly have. An observatory. A telescope. Something that always tied senku and byakuya together. Does he feel connected to byakuya when he's in there looking up even though the sky is ever so slightly different than the one he used to ask him questions about? And I wonder if he ever realizes how unintentional but fully intentional it was that gen gave him two gifts that day, and how happy he is to be loved that deeply, and to be reminded of a love that lasted millennia. I wonder if he wants byakuya to know that too

I feel like my girl Minami doesn't get enough love

I just have a soft spot for reporters because she's like the only one documenting the shit happening, she's knows how important documenting the stuff happening is, she knows that if she doesn't do it noone else will, she understands that people need to know what happened, the truth behind everything because without evidence people refuse to believe.

She understands the importance of her job and carries it with such pride. And I would argue she has one of the hardest jobs beside Senku, whilst Senku is trying to revive humanity she's making sure history isn't erased that people are informed and for that she will ALWAYS have a very special place in my heart.

MY GIRLLLLL i love her

i love this beautiful femme lesbian ♥️

Promise to continue the story that couldn't be told on this star

dr stone is great because it’s just an expanding cast of characters who keep matching each others’ freak. and you think that the next guy will be normal for sure but nope! they are also insane in the exact same way as everyone else just with a different set of skills. greatest shounen of all time.

He was definitely emo at some point of his life

"Ahh, that look again…"

"The same as when you saw the telescope… or the light bulb turning on for the first time… or every time science gives you something new."

"It's cute… how much he loves it."

EXTRA:

Dr. Stone x Fairly Oddparents AU

happy bday to senku my beloveddddd 🫶💕🚀🌏🔭✨

that one line from the sonic 3 movie …… u know the one.

“ some of those stars have died but their light still shines ”

⚠️Spoilers for Look Back but I was initially confused about what Fujino and Kyomoto's relationship had to do with pursuing a career as a mangaka. After thinking about it, I interpret it as a narrative device to represent what will come when choosing to pursue art (of any form, whether it's comics, painting, animation, music, etc.).

Think about it, what's Kyomoto's role in the story? She is what got Fujino to take art seriously in middle school, and what motivated her to continue after she initially gave up. However, she's also the only thing in the story that makes Fujino wish she quit art. First, halfway through 6th grade and then later after her death. She serves as Fujino's motivator and de-motivator.

I think the scene of Fujino wishing that she never told Kyomoto to come out (that pursuing art only led to suffering) represents artists' regrets. We literally look back and see an alternate universe where Fujino never pursued art and it has a happier ending. Anyone that pursues artistic dreams will end up regretting it at some point. It's not easy, any artist will tell you that. The story is saying yes, you probably will end up healthier and more stable by giving up your dreams. Because art is suffering.

But then Fujino enters Kyomoto's room after reading the comic from the alternate reality and all of a sudden we get a montage of the happy memories and accomplishments they had pursuing their dreams together. And we realize that, everything we saw of them in the alternate 'happier' reality pales in comparison to this:

The happiest both of them look in that alternate world is when they finally meet and promise to work together someday. They loved art. They loved each other. Giving up on your dreams means missing out on all of that, and nothing in the world can replace it. Because yes art is suffering, but art is also joy and love.

And so the end of the story where Fujino goes back to work isn't her moving on. She tapes the comic strip in front of her to remind her of Kyomoto, to remind her of why she got into comics in the first place. Basically, Kyomoto IS art to Fujino. A life with her means experiencing both suffering and joy, while the life without her means having none of that.

I might be wrong about this, like maybe Fujimoto just wanted to tell a mangaka story with doomed yuri (valid) HOWEVER i like my interpretation so im sticking with it.

i don't care if these characters have never interacted in canon. it's called fanfiction, not fanfact
