Awesome adaptation of Bad Company (or "Worse Company" from the CR translation :P). It looked great and it was a well developed fight. Can't wait to see what Koichi's stand can really do. I'm really digging Josuke as the MC of Part 4. He's a bit more out there, personable and eccentric like Joseph Joestar (my favorite MC) rather than the completely stoic Jotaro. Interested to see what 'The Nijimura Brothers, Part 3' entails next episode.

Worse Company is such a hilarious name to me, it's hard to be bothered when the characters clearly say the proper names anyway. Enjoyed the episode, some pretty tense moments here. Really looking forward to Koichi's stand, it starting as an egg is really fitting now that I think about it.

lmao worse company xD

Can't they just use Crazy D., B. Company etc.? That should be the best solution I think...

Anyway this was an eggstremely good episode.

Kinda squicked when Okuyasu had his eyes turned into braille. Nasty. I wonder if their going to spend another whole episode on this arc. If so then fuck 39 episodes.

Bad Worse Company was great! I honestly thought that they'll rush the arc to finish it by this episode. Glad they didn't! Yeah, I doubt it'll be a 39 episode series though. It might get a second season that's once cour long.

I completely forgot that Koichi's stand was first introduced as an egg. I like that I'm discovering little things with the adaptation that I've forgotten since then. I'm excited to see it in action, it's one of my favorites ability-wise.

The fight against Bad Company was nicely done. I like the tension we felt through the whole episode. It really showed how dangerous the situation for Josuke was.

Great episode. Really adapted the fight well.

I've noticed that Josuke says Gureito Daze a lot. Did he always say that? I don't remember him saying it so much in the manga.

Also lol Worse Company.

Why was Keicho not invited to Josuke's party?

He was bad company.

But seriously, great episode, great fight, great greats from Josuke. Just how it should be.

Man, this adaptation just gets better by the episode. The adapted the fight between Josuke's Crazy Shining Diamond and Keicho's Bad Worse Company beautifully. It's great to see the first colony type Stand animated :-D.

So they are doing the Nijimura arc across 3 episodes after all. With that it looks like we're back to ruling out the 39 episode run out as impossible once again. It cannot be done at DP's current pace + adding in new scenes, and for that I'm thankful. It'd be way too rushed if they tried to do it that way.

There's only three chapters left to adapt in the Nijimura Brothers arc so I'm guessing they'll adapt the next mini arc in the same episode or at least start it.

Good things Bad Company doesn't have any snipers, Josuke would have lost already if it does.

Wonder if Bad Company could put a fight as good as that if they fought outside or in any open-space

Nice to see Okuyasu help out Josuke.
Keichou's stand "Bad Company" is really cool. Got himself a miniature army & they can deal a lot of damage.
Koichi is alright & now has a stand. Wonder what his Stand looks like inside that egg.
Awesome to see Josuke use those missiles against Keichou. Josuke has always got a plan up his sleeve.

Non manga reader but wasn't really too impressed with this stand. Feels like the worst one introduced so far. Is this the end of the fight ?...the build up was neat and all but it just seems anticlimactic and rushed the way jojo just ended him like that in 2 seconds. Not enough pay off if you ask me.

Worse company, and I can't deny. Worse company, till the day I die.

This has got to be the most creative stand yet, and it's only the 3rd enemy stand introduced! I'm super hyped to see how awesome and creative future stands are going to be, especially Koichi. I mean, it better be awesome with all the build up it's had.

I guess in Italy we don't have any copyright issue, i just watched the episode on an italian legal streaming site and they didn't change the names.

Yeah, back in the day Prince threatened to sue Araki because of some of the references. There was no actual legal backing to it but it scared off some foreign releases of JoJo and now anyone who licenses it in the States is too scared to use the original names.

I have to wonder if Josuke effectively changed Koichi's personality by healing him. You need a fighting spirit to have a Stand, and Koichi didn't qualify. But now he's healed and DOES have a Stand, so he has to have a fighting spirit by that logic.

Already we saw him planning to take out Keicho with his egg in a life or death situation when he was cowering from some school bullies just a few episodes back.

So this bow arc is just to get Koichi his stand so he will be able to join the JoJo party? It's amazing how the plot can be linked back to Dio. Reason why I love the series

That was some badassery over there. Josuke is one hell of a cool badass. Okuyasu's nii-san loved playing with those toy soldiers and stuff so his stand is also a whole army with soldiers, tanks and apaches. And his stand is called Bad Company (which somehow means "Worse Company" in english just like how "Crazy Diamond" means "Shining Diamond"). And this guy launches an all out assault on Josuke after Okuyasu helps save Koichi.

Lol Okuyasu's nii-san's plan went perfectly – he first got Josuke's leg, then his arm and then was about to get his head but Josuke turned things around by fixing a missile.

Koichi laid an egg lol. And that egg has yet to hatch which will reveal the true face of his stand, that is, assuming his stand is something more than an egg lol.
