Dr. STONE SCIENCE FUTURE is airing its third cour, with the story reaching the lunar battle against Why-Man after the rocket launch in episode 34. A collaboration travel book and a resale lottery keep the franchise active in merchandise through late 2026.
The anime is in its final stretch. The third cour of Dr. STONE SCIENCE FUTURE reached the rocket launch in episode 34, with advance cuts from episode 35, Giant Step, showing the crew departing into space. Climax visuals followed in quick succession: Senku as an astronaut under the tagline "Now, to the decisive battle on the moon," then a June 11 visual titled "All Astronauts Assemble" that added Ryusui as the final astronaut alongside Senku, Kohaku, and Stanley. By episode 36, Why-Man reveals its true form, voiced by Koichi Yamadera and Kotono Mitsuishi, and the story moves to the moon for the final confrontation.
