Dr. STONE is continuing after its television finale. Announced on October 10, 2026, Dr. STONE TERRAFORMING will adapt the post-story one-shot collected in manga volume 27. A release date and the project’s format have not been announced.

TMS Entertainment’s English announcement identifies STONE FES.2026 as the reveal event and confirms that the source chapter takes place after the main story. That makes this an epilogue adaptation, rather than confirmation of a regular fifth television season.

What TERRAFORMING adapts

The official Japanese announcement says the television series reached its finale on June 25, 2026. The new project follows that completed storyline through the separately identified TERRAFORMING episode.

The announcement names that one-shot specifically. It does not announce an adaptation of every story in volume 27 or establish that the separate 4D Science material is included. Readers can understand the production news without learning the epilogue’s plot or the main series’ ending.

Official announcement video

TOHO animation’s original announcement video is available above. The official site says it includes a newly recorded Senku voice line, and also publishes messages from manga creators Riichiro Inagaki and Boichi. Anime character designer Yuko Iwasa supplied the celebratory Senku illustration shown with this article.

Release date, format and streaming

As of October 14, the checked announcements do not give a premiere date, episode count, runtime or television-versus-film-versus-special format. They also do not establish the new project’s complete production team or international streaming distributor.

The previous anime’s availability should therefore not be treated as confirmation that the new project will arrive on the same service. Territory-specific dates remain unannounced.

For viewers catching up, Dr. STONE SCIENCE FUTURE is the preceding television installment. The useful distinction is that the main anime story has concluded while an additional, named manga epilogue is now being animated. More details will be needed before this becomes a release-date or watch-guide story.
