The Dr. Stone franchise is set to continue following the wrap-up of its main television series. During the Stone Fes.2026 event held at Yokohama Buntai, producers confirmed that a new project, Dr. Stone: Terraforming, is currently in production. The announcement was accompanied by a promotional video and a commemorative illustration by character designer Yuuko Iwasa.
This upcoming installment will adapt the Terraforming one-shot, which was originally published in the 27th volume of the manga. The story serves as an epilogue, taking place after the events of the final season, Dr. Stone: Science Future, which concluded its broadcast on June 25, 2026. While the main series spanned several seasons produced by TMS Entertainment, specific details regarding the format or release window for this new project remain unconfirmed.
The original manga, written by Riichiro Inagaki and illustrated by Boichi, enjoyed a successful run in Weekly Shounen Jump from 2017 to 2022. Beyond the main narrative, the franchise includes the side story Dr. Stone Reboot: Byakuya. With the main series now fully adapted, this one-shot provides a final look at the post-apocalyptic world created by the duo.
Given that the main series concluded with the final volume of the manga, does this announcement suggest a shift toward adapting remaining side content, or is this the final piece of the Dr. Stone anime puzzle?
