Science and rivalry in a petrified world

In this second volume, rebuilding civilization becomes a contest over what that future should look like. Senku and his companions work toward making gunpowder, but smoke on the horizon raises the possibility that other people have survived. Senku’s choice to send a signal brings that uncertainty into the open, while Tsukasa moves to block their progress. The setup connects practical scientific work with a larger struggle over how humanity might begin again. The volume’s central tension is between discovery and the danger of making contact in a world where not everyone shares the same aims.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Manga readers interested in science as part of an adventure premise
  • Readers who enjoy stories about rebuilding civilization after a global catastrophe
  • Readers interested in conflict over the direction of a new society

Book overview

Imagine waking to a world where every last human has been mysteriously turned to stone...

One fateful day, all of humanity turned to stone. Many millennia later, Taiju frees himself from the petrification and finds himself surrounded by statues. The situation looks grim--until he runs into his science-loving friend Senku! Together they plan to restart civilization with the power of science!

Senku, Taiju and Yuzuriha are well on their way to crafting gunpowder when they spot smoke far off in the distance. Convinced that it's a sign of other humans, Senku takes a huge risk by sending up a smoke signal of their own. Meanwhile, Tsukasa is determined to stop their progress on gunpowder, and his arrival on the scene could spell the end for our heroes!
