So assuming this is another 2 cours that means they plan to cover around 93 chapters. I guess that's doable.

Here's hoping they pull it off. Really gonna miss this show.

The New World felt kinda too long with so many petrifications but at least we are having a hype alien finale

I have seen a lot of people saying that it might be rushed. Like, have they not read it? Act 4 being in America is very fast paced and action heavy and Act 5 is only like 15 chapters. 2 cours should be plenty to wrap it up and then maybe an additional movie or episode special for the epilogue chapters.

... I'm a bit concerned on how they're going to fit the rest of the manga into one season. They will definitely need to have multiple cours to do so. But I'm very much concerned how much they may try and cut out or shrink to fit everything into a standard 2-cour season length (24-26 episodes, from my experience). I mean, I understand why they want to try and finish it since the manga's been done for awhile now and they may not do anything else for it (unless they decide to do OVAs for the 4D spinoff or maybe even the Byakuya spinoff), but I'm concerned about how this is ultimately going to go.

I'm looking forward to it, but I'm feeling less optimistic than I was before.

I'm happy for fans that they're getting a full adaption!

I've been anime-only on Dr. Stone, and I have to say I have been surprised at how shockingly good and refreshing this series has been. It mixes action, comedy, and heart so well, and its writing consistently keeps me guessing. No one I know personally talks about this series, but it's been something special so far.

I have zero worries about the rest of the anime adaptation because the producers have been doing excellent work. Plus, it is one of Crunchyroll's most popular anime; I am sure they will do everything in their power to ensure Dr. Stone continues to be a well made, full adaptation.

Crunchyroll was never a direct part of Dr. Stone's production, so no, they wouldn't really have that much intervening power.

This season of Dr Stone kinda started out very very slow & I was kinda getting a bit bored of the new invention of the week episodes & the lack of any real conflict but the 2nd half really saved it for me. I'll definitely be tagging along for one last sail for sure.
