----------------------------------------
That was fun, really nice to see the episode capture the facial expressions of Koichi and Josuke for this arc and keeping the blood in.

Dio is also mentioned this episode as well.
Interesting to see the flashbacks about Nijimura siblings. But yeah, I thought the episode was adapted well (no egg though) especially the background storytelling. The scene with the electrical shocking and struggling is nice. Can't wait for next arc!

This was an emotional episode... :(
It seems that RCHP user is also reprising his role (Showtaro Morikubo).

Bomance between Okuyasu and Josuke is here, can't wait for more of their antics.

Echoes will also have one episode which is great.

Fabulous Dio looking good as always.

An excellent episode.

Damn that was a fantastic episode. The 22 min. just flew by. They did a really good job making this episode as emotional as possible. Idc if the budget is lower, the directing and soundtrack this season has been pristine.

Also according to the preview, it seems like they're sticking with Reverb translation after all -_-

Another good episode. I'm glad we were able to see Red Hot Chili Peppers in this episode.
The photo thing was sadder than I remembered.
They're adapting it really slow, but I hope to see Kira animated in this year.

So that was the reason he was searching for Stand users.
This is probably the first time I feel bad about a abusive father after I saw him cry like that when he saw their photo.
Keicho saved Okuyasu from Red Hot Chili Peppers,it was super funny when I heard that name, at least he did something good in his final moment.

Emotional moments like these translate much better to anime format, the voice acting and music added a lot to this scene.

Akira was one of my favorite stand users and glad to see him voiced by Morikubo, ready for the hype.

Love Okuyasu. He's gonna be a welcome addition to the group for sure. Can't wait to see what Koichi's powers end up being. And as always, JoJo leaves me with my weekly dose of Savage Garden on its way out. The perfect ending.

Wow this was way better than I expected !!!

I cried a lot.

Chilli Peppers is looking great

The jotaro scene was infinitely better in the manga "Yare Yare daze , It seems I am staying in this town a bit longer".

The anime has finally got to the parts that I started loving part 4 for which starts with the next fight.

GREATO DAZE !

Being friends with Josuke instantly cures depression.


Also, Crunchyroll must be exceedingly paranoid about copyrights. There's no way "Echoes" could be trademarked by anyone. I highly doubt Pink Floyd's lawyers would care or even notice, it's just a goddamn word, it could be referencing anything.

Part 4 is just a lot of waiting for some-stuff's superior subtitles to be released each week...

Kakyoin approves!


Man, I know it's aimed to the feels, I know it targets them. Why the fuck do I still let them have me cry nevertheless?

Awesome episode!

Kakyoin is probably rolling in his grave.

Even though the Tomoko/Okuyasu scene was filler, it was well done, thats the type of filler I dont mind.

Also, that last scene with Okuyasu might be the best anime-only scene i've ever seen.

I really REALLY love how DP managed to adapt those chapters to be even more sad and touching than in the manga, everything was on point in this episode, from the art to the animation to the OST, and the confirmation of Akira's ASB voice actor coming back was so damn good, i couldn't really imagine Akira with any other voice, and the new scene at the end of the episode was the cherry on top, what i'm afraid of is that everyone starts turning Okuyasu into another "milf hunter" joke.

Please, don't turn best brojo into Kakyoin 2.0

New best friend acquired! I really like Josuke and Koichi, but I already know that Okuyasu is gonna be my favorite of the squad.

"Hey my whole family is dead so I need someone to hang out with all day to divert my attention...your mom is super hot!"

I think I'm safe in assuming that this won't be the last time that Dio fucks with the protagonists from beyond the grave.

Adding voices and music to the Nijimura's backstory just made things all the more depressing T_T. It was great seeing Red Hot Chilli Pepper too, can't wait for his fight :-D.

Next week, we finally get to see Koichi's Echoes. Or Reverb, because y'know reverb is a synonym of echoes? Seriously people I get why you complain about things like Worse Company, but complaining about the clever name changes like Shining Diamond and Reverb seems stupid. Especially since you can hear what they're actually saying perfectly fine.

Honestly, I couldn't find this emotional because it was simply too ridiculous, but great episode either way.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

Very good episode, I will say it was very emotional seeing the father crying when looking at the picture of his family. Okuyasu seems like a very funny character after seeing that last scene, looking forward to seeing him more as a main character.
Looking forward to next week!
