New character alert- Dr. Chelsea Childe.

Escape from Stanley Snyder, get to the rubber tree to make tires, make motorbikes, get to the source of the green light somewhere in the Amazon Rainforest. AND our Corn City team begins to try to figure out the Medusa Mechanism.

A really exciting time as always as Xeno, Chrome and Senku work together to find out where the green light originated. By blowing giant soap bubbles. We read the western coast of South America and find Dr. Chelsea, who got lost after waking up, wandering south from the location Xeno and co. were. Turns out she also has the fuzzy eye sickness, an affinity for melons, and is a genius teen geographer. She knows of a short cut our team can take instead of having to go around the coast of South America. The chase is fun as we find ways to outmaneuver Stanley, their guns and plane.

ps. I love Senku's shit eating grin as they come out with their bikes.

We get another new character, Joel, who worked with watches in the past. He manages to figure out how the Medusa works, repetrifies himself, re-revives and that's only the beginning!

Next time on Dr. Stone- making a ropeway to traverse the desert and to avoid Stanley's plane.

4/5 Stars (%77/100)

It was a pretty good volume overall. The crew continues their journey towards the origin of the petrification while escaping Stanley and his crew. Throughout the journey, Senku continues to make scientific tools and machines such as a motorcycle. Chelsea is a new interesting character and there are more new characters like her. The highlight of this volume is the fact that the crew starts to work on the Medusa mechanism itself. I liked the book in general.
