Dr. Stone Ends Its Seven-Year Anime Run With the Science Future Finale

A seven-year journey reaches its end

The official Dr. Stone anime account has confirmed that the series aired its final episode, the 37th installment of Dr. Stone: Science Future, titled "The One to Induce the Future." According to the official account, the finale is now streaming across platforms, and the team marked the occasion with a newly released climax visual and a commemorative hashtag campaign. Outlets covering the conclusion, including Anime News Network and Oricon, report that the episode aired on June 25, 2026, ending a television run that began with the show's debut in July 2019.

Over those seven years the adaptation followed Senku Ishigami, a science prodigy who wakes up thousands of years after a mysterious flash petrifies all of humanity and sets out to rebuild civilization from the Stone Age up. What began as a survival story grew into a sprawling adventure about technology, cooperation, and the Kingdom of Science Senku builds alongside friends like Chrome and Taiju.

What Science Future brought to a close

Science Future served as the adaptation's final stretch, carrying Senku's story through its concluding arc and the long-running mystery of who, or what, was behind humanity's petrification. The original manga, written by Riichiro Inagaki and illustrated by Boichi, finished its serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump in 2022, so the anime's ending lands on a story that readers of the source material already knew was complete.

Reports on the finale describe a time-skip that gives the cast their send-off, including the long-awaited marriage of Taiju and Yuzuriha. For an adventure that always framed progress as a group effort, ending on its characters' futures rather than a single climax fits the series' spirit.
