Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for anyone who wants a laugh, sci-fi fans and action fans.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
4 seasons, but most episodes stand on their own, so you can dip in anywhere (about 24 minutes each).
What might put you off
It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

One fateful day, all of humanity was petrified by a blinding flash of light. After several millennia, high schooler Taiju awakens and finds himself lost in a world of statues. However, he’s not alone! His science-loving friend Senku’s been up and running for a few months and he's got a grand plan in mind—to kickstart civilization with the power of science!
