Dr. STONE

Dr. STONE

Dr. STONE is quickly becoming one of my favorites in Weekly Shonen Jump. I’m still amazed Boichi is able to draw both this and ORIGIN in Young Magazine at the same time. Inagaki is so great at making the process of acquiring new technology into engaging storylines, just like when he did Eyeshield 21.

It’s kinda sad to say but this series got WAAAAAAY better after they ditched the original protagonist Taiju and focused solely on Senkuu. He’s basically the same character as Himura from Eyeshield 21 and an evil genius who works for the good guys.
