deciphering the dr stone tarot cards, so you don't have to!

hi, tarot has been my passion for years, i was overjoyed to see a lineup of each character as a tarot card for the outro of the new season some are a bit difficult to see, but i'm going to try and make out what each one is, and then give a brief synopsis !!

Senku - The Hierophant Building up the world within your limitations and working to transcend those boundaries. The Hierophant is a leader who passes his knowledge of the world on to his followers. Suika - The Star Looking upon the world with optimism and child-like wonder. A person represented by the Star wants to lend a helping hand or guidance to whoever needs it. Kohaku - Strength Strength is made up of two different parts; Mind and Guts. The lion is one's guts, as well as their instincts of survival, while the person who stands beside the lion embodies dreams and knowledge. When the two parts are working together in harmony, true strength is achieved. Chrome - The Fool Through blind faith and curiosity, a journey begins, all because the fool was willing to take that leap. (In my interpretation, I thought this related to Chrome a lot, because before he met Senku, he was experimenting with science on his own, and collecting the materials that would be the groundwork for their studies.) Tsukasa - The Emperor A leader, builder, and protector. Their approach on life is stoic, heavy on abiding by the laws that govern society and nature. They feel deeply about their morals and values. Kinro and Ginro - Temperance Temperance is two opposing energies that help balance each other out. When those energies are in harmony, anything can be achieved. Ukyo - Justice A force that beckons for peace and fairness, as well as judges people with honesty, helping them to see the world with more clarity. Hyoga - Unsure I believe his card is either Death or The Hermit. Gen - The Magician (This one is pretty self-explanatory lmao). The Magician represents communication skills and talent, but the person's true intentions always lie underneath trickery and confusion. Ryusui - The Chariot Stepping into your life with a vision of victory, and blindly relying on your instincts to achieve your goals, making bold decisions and letting the odds be in your favor. Taiju and Yuzuriha - The Lovers The Lovers represents unity between people, or a strong bond between one and their values. Sacrifices are made along the way, but core beliefs are never lost. Minami and Nikki - The Sun The Sun is a very positive force which aids the movement of something greater. The Sun, as a person, is supportive and optimistic. Moz and Kirisame - Death

I don't remember much of the Petrification arc, so I can't apply any character interpretations, but Death means new beginnings and transformation brought about through harsh endings.

let me know if you have any thoughts!!! i sourced my explanations from the Cosmic Slumber tarot deck, the deck i've been using for 5 years, and the Tarot Wikipedia.

"Saiki is the strongest anime character." "Saiki can beat Goku." Saiki isn't even strong enough to tell his friends he doesn't wanna get ramen. All Goku would have to do is ask him to hang out and Saiki would be ruined.

Sobs

Why does Gen talks in pig Latin Theory

I did info dump on a reblog of a post of @ kaibutsushidousha

and I wanted to show it on the main tag…sooo I'm posting it as a post, here you go!

HI!! I have a theory, but I cannot confirm it as canon.

I have investigated so many things about gen I even bought a book exclusive to Japan only, because it mentions a bit of his past

With the information and another theory's I discover many interesting things

Here is a bit that I translated with an extension of Google (Very likely to have mistranslations, sorry!):

"Gen Asagiri's Biography "When my parents had a fight, I understood what my nephew was saying and made compromises. It stopped the quarrel." "He begins studying magic in order to manipulate people's hearts the way he wants." "His social media account, which shared "psychology for exploring adults," went viral, and he made his debut in the entertainment industry as a mentalist."

And with the question about the pig Latin

I like to look at it as something he learned for living in abuse as a child, I say he lived in abuse because of the previous citations I did.

I can reinforce this theory with another theory that could be canon, which is that Gen has Canities subita

(Before I have to mention I'm not a doctor or professional on anything of psychology, I'm only a person who loves to investigate)

This is an alleged condition

"is an alleged condition of hair turning white overnight due to stress or trauma."

 Trüeb, Ralph M. (2013). Female Alopecia: Guide to Successful Management. Springer Science & Business Media. p. 132. ISBN9783642355035.

"The syndrome has been hypothesized to be a variant of alopecia areata diffusa or autoimmune non-scarring hair loss that selectively affects all pigmented hairs, leaving only the white hair behind. Canities subita is caused by high levels of emotional stress, which, in turn, causes less pigmentation of the hair.[3] These form the basis of most uses of the idea in fictional works. It has been found that some hairs can become colored again when stress is reduced.[5][6]One study[7] with experiments on mice found that stress caused white hair even if the immune system was suppressed (ruling out auto-immune response) and if the glands producing cortisol were removed. The study concluded that over-activation of the sympathetic nervous system was causing stem cells to stop producing pigment cells in hair follicles.[8]"

Canities subita. (n.d.). Wikipedia. Retrieved January 25, 2025, from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canities_subita#cite_note-1 (Is the part of "Causes"

So with that (and other thing I didn't mention because this is a Tumblr post) I believe Gen lived in abuse for a big part of his life, also this is reinforced with the fact that Gen used to dye his hair fully black, which could be interpreted as him wanting to forget his past.

And now with that, He learned Pig Latin as a way to survive in his childhood, I based this on the next citations.

"An 1866 article describes a "hog latin" that has some similarities to current Pig Latin. The article says, "He adds as many new letters as the boys in their 'hog latin', which is made use of to mystify eavesdroppers. A boy asking a friend to go with him says, 'Wig-ge you-ge go-ge wig-ge me-ge?' The other, replying in the negative says, 'Noge, Ige woge.' ""

"it can also be used to hide conversation. For example, a conversation between two people in the presence of an unwanted "

Pig Latin. (n.d.). Wikipedia. Retrieved January 25, 2025, from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig_Latin

With that information that I found, I created the theory he used Pig Latin to communicate in secret with people (probably with the “nephew” That is mentioned in his biography…not sure if it could be a mistranslation, sadly I don't know Japanese yet so if anyone knows what it actually said, I would be so thankful!)

In short;

I believe that Gen lived in abuse as a child and learned Pig Latin so he wouldn't get in more problems, and he kept using it mostly when in stress!

But I'm just an internet user who loves this character so much that went very far to use a Japanese VPN to only buy a book he couldn't even understand only because it has a bit of his favorite character backstory and then went on rabbit hole!

So this is like really summaries because I'm planning on adding it on the website I'm making, because I love making essay about things like this on my free time! So yeah, thanks for reading it! If you want to talk to me, feel free! I love talking about the deep of history's mostly cartoons/animes

(Last note: I wrote this really fast so the citations maybe wrong in their format, and it may have some writing mistakes my mother language is not English!)

jet lag: the game is so fucking funny. imagine you are an australian fisherman. two american 20-something-year-olds show up at your pier trying desperately to catch a fish. they clearly have never fished before and are very poorly attempting to do so. their fishing rod falls apart immediately. they just start scooping at the water. one of them is fully about to undress and jump in the ocean when all of a sudden they notice they did manage to get the tiniest minnow possible in their net. they celebrate this catch, and then one of them immediately says “we gotta go back to the airport soon”
