Aren't a lot of our heroes high school aged or younger? Is it really a good idea to get them addicted to alcohol and gambling?
It's been what, 3 years at least? Plus the mocktails were non-alcoholic.

True. I think that the depetrified high schoolers are around 20 at this point. Add in that a legal drinking age is a social construct, and it comes down to whether they choose to follow an old-world law. The only one who specifically says they are too young is Suika.

I will say that episode 2 is kind of odd. Certain parts left me wondering if there is really enough run time to spend on them. On the other hand, the trip seems to be going by pretty fast, probably because there isn't time to spend on it and end up short changing the stuff in America, which clearly has some antagonists in it.

I do question including Hyoga and co. I think the only antagonist who really changed their ways was Tsukasa. Even Magma was, well, Magma when the opportunity presented itself in the last arc. Defeated enemies don't seem to become allies so much as learn to bide their time, and this is the second time where Hyoga gets revived when Senku wants something from him.
