LOL, Polnareffland would be absolutely marvellous!

Just change the name of this series to Polnareff's Bizzare Adventures already. He's become the MC as it is anyway.

In Polnareffland there are many wonderful attractions: Ghost houses featuring zombies and dead, mutilated animals; a merry-go-round where you sit in giant toilet bowls and so much more!

Yeah, it's a low point but it still gave us this AMV so I am willing to forgive Araki this slip.
In any case, after Judgement we should be done with the meh battles.

Dumb or not, the execution of this episode was pretty great. I guess DP is going all out in order to distract greenhorns for the upcoming bullshit.

This episode was well handled, I really love how they played up the drama of Polnareff's "wishes" being turned against him. I'm convinced that there is no way they could've adapted this bit better.

However because of how good this episode was, it does make me wonder if this will make the reception of the second half of Judgement worse. We'll have to wait till next week to find out.

Also sign me up for PolnareffLand as well :D. Free Stands for all whom attend (the manga readers will get a chuckle out of this).

The sister thing was a bit of a tear jerker, but I can't say I didn't expect it!

The 'genie' was obviously a stand but at least it does what it's told! Polnareff should just cling to the fact that he's rich, thoguh I bet he'll leave without the gold ^_^

Honestly? This episode was even better than the manga. The execution was splendid, utterly amazing. DP did bring back the design of 2012' version for Sherry, or it seems so ..?

I liked how they added some filler scenes of Sherry and Polnareff, they really made their reunion a lot more touching. Poor Polnareff, I feel bad for him.
Also, I think I've heard one or two soundtracks that I didn't hear in the latest album, looking forward to hear them in the future then, I kinda had Caesar's episode vibes.

HAIL TO YOU was hilarious and the animations were outstanding as always.

Expecting a lot of movement in the next episode's thread.

Very nice episode. The tone shift was handled nicely. Polnareff is a very soft person in the inside, which is his weakness. Cameo took his time to exploit that.

I always have a laugh when hearing about Polnareff's fantasies.

Got a bit sad when he started wishing to bring Sherry back to life.
The OST captured the emotional state of Polnareff very well, props to Kanno Yugo.

Can't wait for the next one.

Polnareff, you're a great guy and all but you're not Rohan okay! You never will be so just back off man!

Anyway I heard that this was like a low point in part 3, but I dig it. I like how one second we're on a super serious mission to tell a man that his son died, and next Polnareff just finds a stand lamp and wacky shit happens.

Well this is just the first part, I'll reserve my full JUDGEMENT after it's over.

I agree that this was much better than expected. I don't hate Judgement from the manga, but it didn't exactly stick out. I see it as a transition point, and it's not really a terrible one. I was fine with the next 2 eps being mellow (after Death 13). But this episode made it seem like a beat hasn't been skipped and we're rolling right along though. Amazing stuff.

Get out. Polpol is perfection. Best crusader, easily.

Besides, while he may be an idiot, he's also managed a lot more successes than most of the other characters.

Shame that those so called successes involved falling for them at first. Plus getting made to lick toilets and the list goes on. He's far from the most successful. If anything Kakyoin has that title

Kakyoin? The worst crusader, who won all of two fights in the whole series, and CONSTANTLY forgot what his superpower was? Like, if he used Heirophant Green for anything other than bursts of Emerald Splash, he could have been so much more useful.

Plus, I'm not going to go into detail about events that haven't been adapted yet, but I will say this: things do not go well for Kakyoin. If anything he gets fucked over MORE than Polnareff in the upcoming battles.

Hell, there can be no debate over who the most successful Crusader is, anyway. It's obviously Jotaro.

But he won the fights didn't he? The toilet scenes are obviously only for a comedic purpose, I don't feel like that matters in being sucessful.
Also, don't really want to spoil but yeah, I agree with Lindle on this. Polnareff is so simple minded yet he is so genuine and feels like a bro. He's the child in every one of us but when the time comes he can be badass.

Polnareffland should be a thing!

This was a very suspenseful episode, and one I found to be quite compelling. I'm looking forward to seeing how this is resolved.

Plus Polnareff is my favorite Crusader, so its nice to see him get the spotlight more!

I'm really disappointed with the spoilers. I think I'll completely stop reading the "Series Discussion" subforum because I already know what will happen for most ongoing series: I know what will happen in the next episode of Jojo, of Kuroshitsuji, of Hunter x Hunter, in one of the next arcs of Detective Conan... So there's nothing I can do. Of course I sometimes enjoyed reading discussions but they are almost never spoilerless.

Well, Jojo and HxH are series that run for several decades. it's liek going into a game of Thrones discussion and not expecting spoilers. And at least I try to spoiler it whenever possible...

Oh god. DP really went out of their way to make this episode as emotional as possible. Which makes me wonder how they will do the next episode and the general reaction to it.

Didn't realise we were talking about Jotaro all of a sudden. Yare Yare Daze is still a cool catchphrase however.


Note: I don't hate Jotaro, but he might be my least favourite crusader despite all of his badass moments.

It will be time for zombie Advol! But can Polnareff defeat his own inner demon? I also wonder why Advol father do this. I doubt he would be be Dio servant.

It was damn hilarious when Polnareff wished to be a mangaka and there was just a big silence. Same for when he asked for a girlfriend xD

Zombie imouto was creepy :/

This stand basically prays on the insecurities and weaknesses of human heart. I doubt this would work on Jotaro…

With JoJo's stand help you can create your own manga studio Polnareff.

Btw i wonder about the toilets in Polnareffland.

So i am confused about the state of his sister. If she eats lots of animal and flesh etc she would become normal?
