Senku’s stone-world saga is entering its endgame. The anime’s fourth and final season—Dr. STONE: Science Future—will wrap up the series with a third and concluding cour slated to premiere in 2026, following two parts that aired across Winter and Summer 2025. The confirmation arrived alongside coverage from official partners and industry press noting that the 2026 cour will close out the adaptation.
What’s confirmed
- Structure: Season 4 is split into three cours; the first two ran in early and mid-2025, with the final cour set for 2026.
- Platform: The series streams on Crunchyroll in most regions (availability may vary by territory).
- Studio: TMS Entertainment continues production for the finale.
What to expect
The last cour adapts the climax of the Science Future arc, pushing the Kingdom of Science toward its ultimate confrontation with Why-Man and the truth behind global petrification. Expect larger-scale inventions, high-stakes expeditions, and a definitive resolution to the moonshot storyline that’s been brewing since Season 1.
Why it matters
Dr. Stone carved out a unique lane in shōnen anime with problem-solving set pieces, educational science beats, and Senku’s relentless optimism. A mapped-out, three-part final season culminating in 2026 points to a faithful, complete adaptation—and a proper send-off for one of the medium’s most inventive adventures.
