New episode brings new discoveries, and as for this episode, we also meet a new character. Francois was Ryusui’s butler in the modern world who has awakened yet again to serve their master. The character is very different from the rest as they are sophisticated, poised and dutiful even in the stone world. Having a European name is one of the interesting aspects about them, but the most intriguing factor is their gender remains undisclosed to the viewers. They are known for their incredible talent in baking and providing guests with the utmost satisfaction.

As for the other characters, we receive significant information about them as well. Ryusui, who proclaims to be the greediest man in the world, displays a more humane and down-to-earth side. He wants all the glory but is secure enough to let the deserving have the spotlight for themselves. Moreover, he also forms a close relationship with the village dwellers and his forward-thinking opinions have influenced most.

On the other hand, Senku continues to showcase his intelligence and quick thinking, which impresses everyone around him once again. Everyone around him realises his importance and how a major asset he is to rebuild the modern world from the scratch. Nevertheless, even though he is aware of his brilliance, he also realises his shortcomings and remains unafraid to ask for help when needed.

There is no significant change to the plot yet, but it has developed greatly. It has set up an appropriate premise for the story to evolve further in the upcoming episode. The main element of the plot has taken a step back and focused on the intricate details that are important to the storyline. From introducing new characters to new devices, it is slowly building up to a revelation that will satisfy the viewers greatly.

However, often times it does feel like the story is not moving forward and reaches a similar end as the last episode. The main objective which will crucially influence the plot is yet to come, and it might be frustrating to some. Nevertheless, the wonderful animation and the flamboyant characters will easily sway the audience to stay tuned for more.
