Dr. Stone season 4 episode 8 recap
Dr. Stone season 4 episode 8 began with a continued focus on Xeno as he revived Stanley and others. Carlos coughed up the ring he bought Luna when he was revived, which Xeno realized was made of platinum. This effectively gave him a limitless supply of revival fluid, but more importantly to him, gunpowder.
He likewise had his people practice smithing and precision machinery until they made bonafide firearms, which Stanley even seemed to approve of.
As the full development of Xeno’s Kingdom of Science concluded, as did the flashback, returning fans to reality with a focus on Senku and co. As she overheard Taiju say Xeno was the one who helped him and Senku build rockets as kids, Luna tried pointing Taiju out to Stanley.
However, it became clear she didn’t want to betray them, prompting her to mouth Senku’s name to Stanley instead, with Xeno eventually having this name shared with him.
Xeno told Stanley to hold fire as he explained what was going on, wondering if he could get Senku to join him but deciding he couldn’t. He then gave Stanley permission to fire as Ryusui realized there was a sniper.
Unfortunately, the resultant chaos led to Stanley figuring out who Senku was. The episode ended with Senku making a shield in time before the bullet contacted his body, but still bleeding from the shot Stanley fired at him.
What to expect from Dr. Stone season 4 episode 9 (speculative)
Dr. Stone season 4 episode 9 will likely open up with a continued focus on Senku, as the damage Stanley’s bullet did to him is revealed. While he’s almost certain to have survived, he likely will have suffered a serious enough injury to be out of commission and unable to lead. This should likewise prompt a shift in focus to Tsukasa Shishio and co, who are approaching Xeno’s compound.
Their team will likely meet up with Chrome and Kohaku, who are still scouting out the location per the last time they were seen and heard from. Tsukasa’s team will likely be given key intel before entering, with Kohaku joining Tsukasa’s team and leaving Chrome by himself. The episode will likely end with a focus on Tsukasa’s team entering the compound, as Chrome learns what happened to Senku.
