While part 1 of "The new world" felt rushed and was filled with unrealistic occurrences, part 2 completely revived my hope for Dr.Stone.  ***Warning: this is a review of just part 2 of season 2 (the last 11 episodes) If you want to see my review for just part 1 (which was worse) go here. *** ***Warning: There will be minor spoilers*** This season brought back the more grounded approach.  The good: The flow was much better and the ending didn't feel rushed at all. There are fewer unrealistic occurrences  There are some very cool action packed scenes. I personally found the timed nearly-instantaneous revival and the fight with Ibara very cool. I actually liked the battle much more than the "Dr.Stone: stone wars" fights. As always, the diversity of personalities in the characters, the unique comedy, and the great adventure hit a home run. There is a clear path for the future. The opening and closing songs were great. My gripes: There's still the lingering reminisce  of the all-too-convenient character with selective amnesia and the reminisce of the corny cro$$dressing moment… but nothing too bad.   I didn't like the looming threat of the countless medusa devices still existing. Also, when exactly were they dropped? …And how? Seemed like a bit of a plot hole to me– But that might be cleared up in the future season.  There are few completely unrealistic occurrences like one guy being able to knock down a steel door and the medusa device losing its capabilities at just the wrong time- But there were not as many unrealistic occurrences as the first part of this season. These gripes were relatively minor and didn't spoil the anime for me. Overall, I would give this an 8/10. It’s worth watching the 1st part of the season, which wasnt as good, to get to this great continuation.

10s all round. While Part 1 suffered from BEING the first part and ended on a cliffhanger, Part 2 sets up things nicely for the final season (Title: Science Future) by not only dealing definitely with this season's main antagonist but also teasing the next one (you'll be particularly blown away about WHERE they're based!) Not much more needs to be said, other than this is one show I have stuck with consistently since 2019 and rarely been let down. Can't wait to see how it ends!

Another great season of Dr. Stone.  Soiler zone After they arived at the island you could really feel the stakes and I loved it, The revival of a character from a couple hundred years was also interesting, hope it becomesmore important in the future. And the fact that not everyone can be revived also was interesting, making me wonder if someone else that  is important may suffer the same consequences.
