I hope they have some explanation for the village on how Magma caught on fire Like if they say that the gods of battle were angry at him for hitting Chrome while he was down, and attacking Kinro while his back was turned.
> That's what I'm hoping for too, otherwise the referee might consider it as a use of an outside interference as it technically was a weapon
> There wasn't any rule against using sorcery, just outside interference. As long as the sorcery came from Chrome it's allowed.
I love they used Senku's bamboo string as the light bulb for Chrome getting the hint to play along with Gen!
> I didn't get that at first, that's really clever!
> Suika got a match in the last episode when she figured out how to escape.

> 前回でスイカが脱出法を思いついたときはマッチだった。

I'm curious, is it possible to do something like that IRL? Using water like that to start a fire...
> Yeah it is!
> You can 10 billion percent do that
リアルで可能なのか気になる。 あんなふうに水を使って着火できるのか･･･
> できるよ！
> 100億パーセントできる
This was fun. The power of science and charisma came through in the end for Chrome. Now it doesn't matter who wins, since Ruri will be saved. It's nice to have Gen back at the right time. Hopefully he sticks around a bit longer than last time.
The new ED is so touching. If they cover more family background story of Senku or Taiju's I'll be more than happy. The episode itself is honestly slightly disappointed than I expected for the resolution of the hyped tournament. I can't believe Magma wasn't disqualified by backstabbing Kinro and then the judge just shrugged off and ignored it. Also igniting the cloth by the glass lens is a bit too unrealistic for me even the Dr. Stone's standard.
> Well technically as long as Jasper didn't declare a victor the fight is still on going. The only mistake was he turned his back to Magma when asking question.
> Yeah, I have a feeling Senku will be the winner as well, although I don't really have a good reason for thinking that x)
Can someone actually calculate how to start a fire like that?
誰かあんな風に着火時間を計算できる？
Course it wasn't gonna be that easy. But the way it was won in the end was pretty neat with Gen's tricks and everything else. And I think you chowed down the wrong kind of herbs there Ginro, making you hallucinate like that...
> I was thinking it will just have a placebo effect on him since he was only eating the raw materials. Senku even said that it's better not to tell him so the "placebo effect" won't came off. Having a bad stomach after that was hilarious though lol
I really like Gen. You can see how much faith he and Senku have in each other for what they do. I'm pretty sure that once Gen properly defects, he'd be one of Senku's most trusted and useful people.
using ur own sweat and tears to start a fire to save ur beloved is the manliest thing I've ever seen
愛する人を救うために自分の汗と涙を使って火をおこすのは、俺が今まで見た中で一番男らしいことだ
I wonder what Senku’s backup plan would’ve been if Chrome lost. I saw this title and definitely thought he was going to make a flamethrower or something
Summary of this totally honest and fair tournament: match 1: won by attacking the opponent from behind while he was talking with the referee to settle a matter of external interference match 2: fixed to hasten the beginning of match 3 match 3: won by default thanks to one player being occupied with an engineered distraction match 4: won by doping match 5: won by setting the opponent on fire This is probably the dirtiest TOURNAMENT ARC of any shonen, ever.
