Dr. Stone season 4 reveals episode 1 sneak peak in Jump Festa 2025
On December 21, 2024, during the Jump Studio stage of the Jump Festa 2025, Dr. Stone season 4 revealed the sneak peek for its first episode, which teased a battle between Senku and Ryusui. The sneak peek ended with both characters ready to engage in a poker duel.
Dr. Stone is based on a manga series written by Richiro Inagaki and illustrated by Boichi. The series started its serialization in March 2017 and ended in March 2022, collecting 27 volumes in total (released in both Japanese and English).
Dr. Stone season 4 releases a sneak peek of the first episode
The sneak peek of the episode featured the Science Team on their ship, sailing towards North America (as revealed in the prequel's last episode). As expected, due to the harsh conditions the ocean was giving the protagonist group, everyone was getting fed up with their current state.
Out of nowhere, Senku and Ryusui started arguing over the days it would take the Science Team to reach their destination. Ryusui was adamant that it would take them 70 days (by following a straight path), while Senku argued that they could reach their destination in a mere 40 days (given how the Earth is round and a curved pathway might reduce their journey).
As expected, their duel didn't dissolve based on just words, so these two then fought in a poker battle. Dr. Stone season 4 episode 1 sneak peek ended with both Senku and Ryusui standing before a poker table.
The Jump Festa stage for Dr. Stone season 4 featured the series main cast members like Yusuke Kobayashi (Senku Ishigami), Kengo Kawanishi (Gen Asagiri), and Ryota Suzuki (Ryusui). The voice casting showcased their anime-themed T-shirts to start with as they reacted to the final season's promotional trailers later on.
The Jump stage also announced the rebroadcast of Dr. Stone's prequels on the online Japanese streaming platform ABEMA. Season 1 will be broadcast on December 26, 2024; season 2 on December 27, 2024; Episode Ryusui on December 27, 2024; and season 3 on January 2 and 3, 2025.
Season 4 will premiere on January 9 on the Tokyo MX channel at 10 pm JST.

As of this article's publication, no official synopsis has been unveiled regarding Dr. Stone season 4 by the series' production team. However, as given by the sneak peek of episode 1, the sequel would see the Science Team continue their journey towards North America.
