* CoolOldGuy: Kasaki may be a little standiffish at first, but once he sees the potential of glass and realizing Senku isn't going to waste his time, he quickly becomes an essential member of the Kingdom of Science due to his crafting know-how. He also starts warming up in general as shown when he gives Ginro a pep talk and makes him a gas mask to encourage him to go help Senku and Chrome harvest sulfiric acid. He still maintains a gruff and grumpy demeanor, but it's easy to see he enjoys the company of the rest of the group, having found the crafting budies he always wanted.

On March 6th 2022, the manga ended with 232 chapters. In 2023, a SequelSeries, ''[[Manga/DrStone4DScience Dr. STONE: 4D Science]]'' was released.

On March 6th 2022, the manga ended with 232 chapters. On November 5th, 2023, a SequelSeries, ''[[Manga/DrStone4DScience Dr. STONE: 4D Science]]'' began.

-> "''To get from Stone Age to Modern Civilization, it took humanity 2 million years. We are going to rush through it! We will recover the world! We will find out the principles of the petrification and its recovery mechanism... We, two high school kids, are going to recreate civilization from scratch!"''

** In Chapter 97, when Ryusei describes that radar can see through anything, Chrome wonders if they can see through land as well, leading him to realize they can be used to find iron in the mountains.

** Chapter 200: [[spoiler:Following the revival by Superalloy City in South America, the heroes divide their forces. The first group[[note]]Tsukasa, Ginro, and Matsukaze[[/note]] will stay in Superallow City to help Xeno build the rocket engine. The second group[[note]]Taiju, Ukyo, Hyoga, Luna, Carlos, and Max[[/note]] will head back to Corn City to revive everyone and improve corn production to provide crucial alcohol for the revival fluid. The last group[[note]]Senku, Kohaku, Chrome, Suika, Kaseki, Gen, Ryusei, Francois, and Chelsea[[/note]] will continue establishing the super cities across the world and collecting materials for the rocket, finishing their journey in Japan]].

* OutOfCharacterAlert: In Chapter 166, Ryusei realizes [[spoiler:the Stanley he and Senku were in a dog-fight with was an imposter when she failed to land a hit on either of time while only a couple feet away]].

** "[[TitleDrop Dr. Stone]]" has several meanings over the course of the series, ranging from soap (essential for fighting off infection) to sulfonamide antibotics (made largely from inorganic substances, e.g. 'stone') to [[spoiler:the petrification process itself, which acts as a {{Panacaea}} that can even undo death.]]

* ArcWords: "Stone world" and "Kingdom of Science".

** In chapter 121, [[spoiler:Ginro is stabbed through the torso by Minister Ibara after discovering that the master is a statue, an injury that would be fatal without immedient intervention. Kohaku passes the discovery to Amaryllis to share with Senku and the others, before taking Ginro to the highest point and starting to shout about the master's true identity, knowing Ibara will order Kirisame to petrify them to hide the truth. She did this knowing that Senku will find the means to unpetrify them, and thus healing Ginro's injuries like the process had for Senku and Mirai]].

* ObstructiveBureaucrat: In the end of the original series, doctors Senku and [[spoiler:Xeno]] want to [[spoiler:experiment with time travel to see if they can do something to prevent the original petrification incident]], but ''4D Science'' shows international politics getting in their way. After everything they accomplished in a few years while civilization was frozen, [[spoiler:Xeno]] can't help but want to just petrify all of those politicians again.

** The first chapter of the SequelSeries ''4D Science'' has this as the FirstEpisodeTwist when the characters [[spoiler:receive their requested message from the future to prove their time travel experimentation was successful]], the twist particularly coming from ''who'' sent the message.
---> Hello to you all, denizens of the [[spoiler:past]]. My name is [[spoiler:Byakuya Ishigami]].

On March 6th 2022, the manga ended with 232 chapters.

* UniversalEyeglasses: Suika is ''extremely'' short-sighted, so Senku crafts a set of corrective lenses for her, built into her watermelon helmet in place of actual glasses. During the tournament to decide the next chief of the village, her watermelon helmet winds up on Kinro's head, correcting his vision and allowing him to win his match. It also allows him to admit that his eyesight is less than perfect, but it is implied to be nowhere near to the same degree as Suika, whose lenses logically should have overcorrected.

** Senku wishes to teach science to the villagers. Writing would be massively helpful for that purpose, but the immense difficulty of teaching the villagers how to read and write, combined with the existence of more pressing matters prevent him from teaching literacy until the year-long TimeSkip in Chapter 99. Him not being a good communicator of science doesn't help either, as few people from the village besides Chrome can keep up with his train of thought. Although it is obvious that as long as one can keep up with Senku, for example Chrome, he did a good job at transferring knowledge. Think primary school teacher (what takes to teach the general villagers science and writing) versus university professor (Senku, with Chrome being his graduate student.)

Taiju Ooki is finally prepared to declare his love to his crush, Yuzuriha Ogawa, but just before he can do so... [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt the world ends]], with the entire human race (and one species of swallow) [[TakenForGranite turned to stone by an unknown cause]]. For thousands of years, the petrified Taiju holds to his determination, forcing himself to stay conscious so that one day he can express his feelings to Yuzuriha.

** Both Ooki Taiju and Senku. Taiju was determined to get out of his petrified state to see his love interest, Yuzuriha, again, and Senku was counting the seconds for all those thousands of years knowing he will get out.

* ReclaimedByNature: Right at the start of the series, a montage shows the passage of time through Ooki's eyes. Foliage begins to grow over structures all over the world until eventually metal begins to decay and stone structures literally crumble away. 3700 years later, there's almost no trace of anything humanity ever created.

** Chapter 228: [[spoiler:The Why-Man isn't a single being but rather the Medusa devices themselves. The devices are mechanical oragnisms that see the petrification as a benefit for intelligent species like humans]].

* HopeSpot: In Chapter 159, [[spoiler:once Dr. Xeno realizes that the Kingdom of Science's leader is his old friend and student Senku, Stanley asks if he really wants to go through with the assassination plan. Xeno [[FlashBack flashes back]] to the good times they shared in the old world...but they tells Stanley to take the shot, since he knows Senku would actively oppose his plan to rule the world via superior science.]]

* GenghisGambit: Suika thought that Ginro's unexpected and ridiculous desire to become chief (and proclaim everyday all-you-can-eat ramen and a harem for every man) was a way to unify the entire village against him so that Senku would be seen favorable as chief. [[SubvertedTrope In truth, his sleezy side took over when Ruri says she cannot favor who becomes the chief, making him think he has a chance to become chief]]. Kohaku and Kinro promptly denies it (this scene is not seen in the anime).
