The Dr.STONE anime is in its final stretch. The third cour of Dr.STONE SCIENCE FUTURE has released a series of climax visuals and promotional videos that move the story toward its lunar conclusion. A visual from May 29 shows Senku Ishigami as an astronaut with the tagline "Now, to the decisive battle on the moon." A June 9 Rocket Climax PV uses footage from episode 34 to show Senku and his companions reaching the lunar rocket launch, and advance scene cuts from episode 35, Giant Step, depict the crew departing into space.
The astronaut lineup is now complete. A June 11 climax visual titled "All Astronauts Assemble" adds Ryusui as the final astronaut, joining Senku, Kohaku, and Stanley as the team prepares to fight Why-man on the moon. The mystery of Why-Man is also being resolved on screen. In episode 36, the entity reveals its true form, voiced by Koichi Yamadera and Kotono Mitsuishi, with the story reaching the moon for the final confrontation.
Around the climax, the series has seen promotional activity. ABEMA streamed every episode for free from June 10 to June 26, including the TV special Ryusui, ahead of the anime's conclusion. TOHO animation also streamed a free selection of episodes focused on Senku and his astronaut father Byakuya on YouTube from May 30 to June 7. Merchandise and events continue, including a second Animate Cafe collaboration starting July 2, 2026, and a resale of the Reading Autumn lottery from August 4 to August 31, 2026.
