The PV shows scenes from Episode 7, which will air on 16 August 2019. Episode 7 marks the start of a new arc titled the ‘Village Arc’. This arc will introduce us to eight new characters: Kohaku, the girl who shows Senku around the village; a magician named Chrome; the gatekeeper brothers Kinro and Ginro; a little girl wearing a melon over her head named Suika; the village craftsman Kaseki,; Kohaku’s older sister, the village shrine maiden Ruri; and the mysterious mentalist Gen Asagiri.
Fans of Dr. Stone who also like trains should visit Japan as soon as possible as Izuhakone Railway and Dr. Stone are currently collaborating and will be holding a departing ceremony of their train at Shuzenji Station in Shizuoka Prefecture on 25 August 2019. Senku’s voice actor Yusuke Kobayashi will take on the role of stationmaster and do the on-site announcements and he will also take part in the departure ceremony. Senku will be in charge of the announcements made inside the special train, which is to operate until Mishima Station. ‘Dr. Stone Commemorative Ticket Sets’ will go on sale in the near future.
