What to expect from Dr. Stone season 3 episode 1
As the special episode, Dr. Stone: Ryuusui, was canon to the original storyline, the sequel will continue from where it left off in the previous installment. Dr. Stone season 3 episode 1 will pick up from chapter 90, “NEW WORLD MAP,” of the original manga series. The premiere will see Senku, Chrome, and Ryuusui’s arrival at Ishigami village on their new invention, the hot air balloon.
As it will be Ryuusui’s first time after de-petrification to see a huge community, he will be surprised to see the endeavors of Senku’s Kingdom of Science. Although the group will eventually face a food shortage, the real issue will be needing a cook to look after the Ishigami village's nourishment.
With the help of Senku, Ryuusui will revive his butler, Francois, who is an amazing chef. Being a trained cook, Francois will use her culinary skills to amaze the people of Ishigami village with her unique and mouth-watering dishes.
