Oh Joseph cracked me up in this episode.

The episode was good and had a good dose of energy with the heat catching up to the guys. Praise the sun~. It's funny they thought the Sun itself is a stand at first. Still, it was a pretty damn intense episode. Pretty good execution of it.

Polnareff playboy as always.
Haha, the camel scene, gold as it was in the manga, maybe even more enjoyable thanks to Joseph's VA.

It's incredible how they turned a mediocre fight like this into something this glorious. Those animations, just wow. The directing was simply superb.

THE LAUGHS AHAHAHA.
Oh my sides, that preview.

Praise The Sun! ;)

The added filler scenes at the beginning were quite fun (Polnareff's hair), just like the rest of the comedy. Joseph climbing the camel was hialrious and the heat trip followed by their insane laughs and Joseph's english swearing made me laugh as well.

They really did a great job on making the laughs awkward and insane as much as possible. Especially Kakoyin. I love his moments lol

Love how they animated the sun. Reminds me of flare from FF or something.

Joseph acting like a camel master and failing at every scope of it was hilarious! That hype when he finally got to ride the camel! XD

At the first glance, "The Sun" seemed like a formidable Stand. Quite OP in a way too!
Lol'd so much at Joseph's "Oh my God!" and "Son of a bitch!" XD

Those insane laughings were priceless! I really thought they've lost it. :O
But damn, Jotaro is harsh sometimes; saying Joseph is pathetic and that he'd assume the heat is too much for him.. Poor Joseph.

Good episode. I got trolled a little since I expected the Stand user to be someone of high caliber! Good one, JoJo!
That PV though.. Kakyoin's nightmare? XD

Great ep. They really are turning meh fights into something good. Oh man I totally forgot Joesph has a lot of english lines in this and they were so great. The whole laughing bit was great I couldn't get enough of Jotaro's face. I can't wait for next weeks ep. I been waiting for this one for a while now.

I had heard that this was a joke fight, but it sure wasn't funny when they all nearly burned to death. Good thing the stand user was weak otherwise they might have had nothing to laugh about.

But I have to say that reveal WAS super hilarious, and it's a pretty good contrast to what seems is going to be a very serious two parter.

I feel like the author changed the story midway as he somehow made too strong stand and did not exactly know how to deal with it. I didn't find this ending to be funny at all while the rest of the episode was intense or funny the beginning of it, then out of nowhere wtf ending.

Ikr, I must admit that in the manga it was more a joke fight, but DP turned it more like an epic fight with a joke feel which is exactly what I wanted it to be.

Dat Joseph ENGRISH XD and his way of riding of the camel XDXD Trading for a car of that caliber :O

I really thought they lost it there. Didn't expect they were just Laughing their asses out from how anticlimatic it was XD Esp Jotaro. Didn't think he's that type of person. I guess the heat really did get to them :P

Poor Joseph, he's the only one left out XD

HOLY SHIET!

Well JoJo portrayed a more psychedelic atmosphere this time, showing one of the cruelest aspects of the desert, its merciless heat and dryness culminating into affecting your mind with self inflicted illusions, however once its broken, you can't help but laugh at yourself and what you were imagining :D

5/5 Still awsm. next week, some build up and more psychological goodness.

Simply hilarious. Joseph Joestar is the true star of this show. Makes you wonder why the mangaka/screenwriters don't make more cool oji-san characters like him

Joseph was on top form this episode. I think my favorite part was Jotaro, Polnareff, and Kakyoin's eyes following his attempts to get the camel to go where he wanted it to. Loved all the bandages and that the other three apparently had no trouble what so ever. Never was too crazy about the end of the "fight", but the laughing part was amusing.

Haha camels are quite stobborn animals, fun to ride once you get the hang of it though. DP playing up the menace of the Sun just made the anti-climatic win all the funnier :D.

Next up is the horrifying Death 13, a fight that many of us have been eagerly waiting for.

The laughing and Joseph's swearing were easily the highlights of this episode. Especially Kakyouin's laughter, I almost began laughing myself due to how strange it was.

Besides that it was a pretty okay episode. I hear Death13 is pretty good, so I'm looking forward to it!

It wasn't a weak Stand. It could've killed the entire group. Arabia Fats just concealed himself in a way that made him easy to target.

Well, why dont we just remove 80% of Spongebob Squarepants. Nothing will be lost anyway. Or 15 episodes of Cowboy Bebop since they dont have anything to do with the main story.

That's just how this part is. If you dislike the adventures of Joestar and co. and the "monster of the week" formula you might as well drop this and only watch the last 10-15 episodes when they come out.
