PokeNirvash Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 So here's what happened in the Ryusui special, for those of you too lazy to watch it. Last we left Senku and friends - now consisting of both the Kingdom of Science and the Tsukasa Empire - it was decided that they would all head out to South America, the source of the mysterious event that turned humanity to stone, and figure out what the hell is going on. Of course, because this show is all about the procedure, first they have to build the ship that will take them there. Actually constructing the vessel is the easy part; the hard part is finding a captain to man the ship and get them where they need to go. The reporter lady who helped Tsukasa pick out all the people he revived for his army brings Senku and a few others to an island-based academy for naval training, where they ultimately revive Ryusui Nanami, the adventurer scion of a maritime trading conglomerate who knows everything there is to know about weather and navigation. He's also a greedy asshole and narcissist, but it's okay because he's voiced by Bakugo and it is entertaining as fuck. Now that they have their captain, next comes finding oil that can be used to power the ship once it's finished. Ryusui points them to the site of a former oil field in Shizuoka (that he immediately calls dibs on the land rights to) that's their best bet for the material. So while Kohaku, Chrome and Ukyo (the super-hearing guy) head out to find the oil field, Ryusui introduces the Kingdom of Science/Tsukasa Empire (hereby abbreviated as KSTE) to capitalism, creating a currency known as the "drago" (exchange rate 100 for a dollar, I think) which he distributes some of but hogs the rest of, that way there's money to purchase the oil. So far so good, but during their journey to Shizuoka, the expedition team discovers a giant waterfall that wasn't there before, leading to a major problem that not even Senku had considered: Mt. Fuji is a volcano, and has likely erupted several times in the three millennia humanity laid dormant, changing the landscape and making navigation through typical means impossible. Of course, Senku being Senku, he has a solution in mind already (though it takes a brain blast courtesy of a comment from Suika to get him there). The solution: create air travel. Namely, a hot air balloon that will not only take them places faster, but provide enough of a view of the world above to create an all-new world map for accurate navigation. Cue the process of making the balloon, specifically the cloth needed to create the balloon itself. (Yuzuriha has a lot of relevance during this part.) This leads to the creation of a loom and, per Gen's suggestion, designer clothes made from the reject cloths that they can sell for large sums of cash. They even have a fashion show and everything! The purpose for the latter action: to drain Ryusui of some of his own money reserves so Senku has enough money in his war chest to purchase the oil Ryusui's selling at 100 drago per milliliter. Eventually, the balloon is finished, and now comes the testing phase. Three people go to test the balloon: Senku, who designed it and knows all about how it would work; Ryusui, who's pre-considered but ultimately earns the right in a game of Joker's Wild rigged by Gen; and Chrome, who rushed all the way back to home base upon learning that the balloon was being built in the first place. The test takes place and it's overall successful, though per Senku's occasionally recurring bad luck, he and the others (who immediately argue with one another over who the better adventurer is) get caught in a cumulonimbus cloud that they can't easily emergency land out of, thanks to a hole formed in the balloon by some passing birds. They're ultimately successful in escaping, though Senku ends up using the last of the miracle fluid - a.k.a. the stuff needed to bring people back to life - as a fuel boost. The special ends with Senku, Ryusui and Chrome preparing to land the balloon in Ishigami Village, where Kohaku and Ukyo are waiting for them. And now you're ready for "New World Map". Get excited, guys. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
