Dr. Stone, Tome 2

I love how the series incorporates real science, but I wonder if the storytelling takes some creative liberties. Do readers think it’s a good mix?

There were some slower moments before the big action scenes. Was that intentional to build suspense or just how the story evolved?

The mix of ancient and futuristic tech feels so unique. I’d love to know if the author had a specific vision or real-world influences.
