Senku finally meets Why-Man and in "Dr. Stone" Chapter 231, the two may have a private talk. As the manga gets more intense, rumors have it that Riichiro Inagaki and Boichi's brainchild will soon end.
Several reports claimed that "Dr. Stone" is about to come to an end and "Dr. Stone" Chapter 231 is believed to be one of its final chapters. So, is there any truth about it? What happens next in the series?
The news comes from some of the well-known fan pages on Twitter, like WSJ_manga. The series is now in the headlines as these reports suggest that the manga will end next week.
If this is true, Comicbook noted its story would come to a close in Weekly Shonen Jump #14 and it may reveal an extended chapter to tie all the loose ends. Anyhow, there are no official words yet from the creator or the publisher about its ending.
If the series ends, the upcoming Weekly Shonen Jump releasing this weekend may carry some updates. Sure, this comes as a surprise to many, but it looks like the manga has been leading up to its finale for quite a while.
The current arc addresses as many major questions as it can, like revealing the identity of Why-Man and more. By the looks of it, other story gaps will be solved soon from "Dr. Stone" Chapter 231 forward.
Meanwhile, in the upcoming new chapter, Senku is slowly making new grounds to build a reliable future for the world and Why-Man, per Epic Dope. The latter has explained the timeline of events and it perfectly connects some dots, solving some of the series' mysteries.
Senku is now taking the risk to talk to Why-Man alone, but he seems to do not mind. So as he seems to plan to use Medusa's body, what will happen from here?
There are theories he plans to use Why-Man, like mobile phones, to "enhance humanity." Elsewhere, fans also want to know how "these mechanical beings" emerge, seeing how upfront it is about its reasons despite being an AI.
They also want to answer the questions about the creator of Medusa and the intention behind it. By the looks of it, Senku and his team are about to face the unexpected as the next chapter gives the answers fans need. "Dr. Stone" Chapter 231 is set to be out on Sunday, Feb. 27.
