| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Holy shit, rat and corpses. I must say, they captured the thrill of the episode pretty well for the hunting arc. Quite an unusual episode imo with the antagonists being rats. Really bought out the bizareness of the series. I also kinda like how they are adapting the arc especially with the character chemistry between Josuke and Jotaro. Reim's also such a strange Stand imo.  |
 |
| I like how the rats would've killed Jotaro or Josuke individually and they had to combine their abilities to win. It also sucks that Jotaro never keeps using ball bearings to extend his range. I could get not carrying bullets everywhere, but come on. |
| - This episode brilliantly adapted one of my top 6 favourite arcs from this part - Lovely bonding episode between an Uncle and his nephew, further characterising both characters - Fuck power levels, all about wits/strategy, Jotaro defeated a time stopping fabulous immortal vampire and lost to rat a decade+ later :P - Jotaro's new outfit is my favourite from this part (he wears another fan beloved outfit next), his dolphin pins kissing each other, Dolphin/Sun pin on his hat, new boots, colour scheme and a giant triangle pin on his chest - Jotaro fashion sense on point, though I prefer Rohan's various outfits a bit more :) - Josuke learn a new skill - Jotaro a Marine Biologist was dropping them rat facts :P - More Rohan next week ! Seems to be a single episode and not a parter? 10/10 episode. - Josuke and his love for designer wear  |

| They did a great job adapting this episode imo. I feel like they represented the atmosphere of this hunting art fantastically well too. Never liked this arc too much but seeing it animated maybe made me like it a bit more. Hyped for next week. It's finally time. |
| It seems that now Jotaro Kujo just want a quiet life. |
 |
| Next week, finally: |
 |
| I loved the episode, but another week to go until the next episode. So Jotaro is now the Stand of Star Platinum? They will probably fix the error within the Blu-ray/DVD release.  |

| Can that rat beat Dio if Dio is in Jotarou situation? |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
Zapredon said: Can that rat beat Dio if Dio is in Jotarou situation? Depends on how seriously Dio takes the fight since he can stop time longer than Jotaro. |
| those rats are the creatures of nightmare |
| Jotaro got defeated, because he insisted on being the bait, so that Josuke would get a clear shot. If Jotaro was alone, he would probably use less risky tactics. |
| The art and animation clearly look much more polished than the previous episodes, keep it up DP. Good to see Star Platinum use Za Waldo again. It's absolutely hilarious that these rats almost killed a time stopper in Jotaro. The rat cube thing has to be the most digusting page in Jojo: http://i.imgur.com/evfYORA.jpg, they made it less disgusting in this episode imo. They skipped this very important panel, too bad DP.  They also skipped Josuke being stingy and commenting on how his shoes got fucked up and that they cost a lot of money, not as bad as Mickey Mouse skip though. |

| What makes this fight really underwhelming for me is that Jotaro just refused to shoot the rat in the frozen time. For an experienced stand user that also has a degree in biology you sure botched this fight, eh, Jotaro? Like him stopping time at any point gives him a free really accurate shot that should've killed any of the rats. How did you manage to startle the other rat, did you show him pictures of your dolphin wife? Zapredon said: Can that rat beat Dio if Dio is in Jotarou situation? Depends on whether or not he'd still be able to regenerate if his flesh becomes goop. Because if he wouldn't he'd probably end up as a pile of vampire jelly waiting for the sunrise to take care of what remains of his body. |
| I see jotaro says ZA WARUDO too everytime he stops time, neat. But seriously, rats with stand power? what's next? dog? bird? gorilla? oh, wait.. |
 |
| Once again the art and animation looked really gureto this episode. This was a really good episode for Jotaro, too, he's putting that marine biology Ph.D. smarts to work. He was always really clever and attentative in Stardust Crusaders, so seeing him like this just feels right, I'm glad he got a lot of focus this episode while simultaneously having gureto chemistry with Josuke. And Josuke remembered to fix the people in the fridge, right? |

| I really loved the dynamics between Josuke and Jotaro this ep! Who knew rat hunting could be so intense...well this is JoJo I guess, if there's gonna be animals doing bizarre shit, it's gonna be here- especially judging by past occurrences. Here's hoping Josuke fixed those poor people in the fridge quickly...he just started having a convo with Jotaro whilst the poor mushed up messes were suffering!! Also, that opening song is really growing on me after a second week...I was kinda sad after seeing that they replaced the first one since it fit so well but this one is pretty epic tbh. It's like I can tell it has some spoilers, but since I'm anime only I won't spot them until after I've finished the anime! By the looks of things we have more Rohan to look forward to next week so yay! Although I'm wondering when the hand fetishist will show up??? |

| Great episode Duwang next week i'm hyped |
| Deep dark fantasies |
| Jotaro suffered a lot in this episode, that rat was strong. He named his time stop move The World, a tribute to Dio-sama. |
 |
 mfw you can´t handle the pressure |
 |
They went through all that just for a rat? They should've called the King of the Rats. |
| Lmao, Jotaro suffered the same nerf Joseph suffered during Stardust Crusaders. The man who defeated Dio, beaten by a rat xD His biology knowledge, however, was cool. Anyway, the Stand of the rats was really creepy and was some nightmare fuel material. Josuke at the end was awesome, love how smart he can be when the situation is needed and how hot blooded he behaves in other situations (like the fight against Rohan). Next episode will be the appearence of Cannot wait for it >_< |
 |
| Pretty intense final moments. I actually found this episode to be really intense. The danger of two small creatures fuckin you up is real! |
| Pretty good episode. I love Jotaro's character so much more in this part. Goten_ssj3 said: So Jotaro is now the Stand of Star Platinum? They will probably fix the error within the Blu-ray/DVD release. Episode 15 also had the same error. It's not that big of a deal, though. But hopefully they will fix it. |
| Rat stand users now? Alright. I almost don't want to see this episode uncensored. It looks nasty. More of the same. 4/5 |
| wanted to see Josuke eyes popping out of his head but aside from that it was awesome to finally see this in anime. |
One of my favorite mini arcs in the series just because we get to see some good old fashion team up with the Joestars. Josuke learns new and pretty important skill and we get to see Rohan next week! Don't worry about me, I'm just DYING its just a flesh wound. |

| That pointy triangle on Jotaro's jacket really made me uncomfortable |
 |
| I thought Jotaro said he hadn't been able to use The World since the fight with Dio or did I imagine that? Anyways yet again an entertaining episode. |
| 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... |
geralt said: I thought Jotaro said he hadn't been able to use The World since the fight with Dio or did I imagine that? Anyways yet again an entertaining episode. He hasn't been using it a lot so his time stop duration has shortened is all. |
| Weird that both rats had the exact same power. |
geralt said: I thought Jotaro said he hadn't been able to use The World since the fight with Dio or did I imagine that? Anyways yet again an entertaining episode. Actually, in his first meeting with Josuke, he said that it was the first time he used the time stop ability since the battle with Dio. |
| smart rats using the traps back xD guess developing a stand makes animals smarter |
 Fixes to make the Profile more bearable after "the Modern★Profile★Update★★Rip★Profile★" |
| The name of the stand is Ratt. I'm not kidding. |
| Another average episode, as the majority of them. While I'm not a fan of this part tbh, the manga was much more entertaining. How I miss the manga sound effects... 3/5 |
FINALLY. This is what all of the fans have been waiting for. Dio has nothing on this guy, imo. |
 |
They cut out the best part of this arc! Josuke was supposed to get very upset about his expensive clothes getting wet! |
| Fantastic episode. Love how this series isn't about power levels so even though Jotaro beat Dio it doesn't mean he can just steamroll every enemy. I mean they struggled against a rat, and it took both Jotaro and Josuke working together to beat it. |
 |
| I've always really liked this fight, so I'm glad to see newer fans are able to appreciate this fight for what it is: not a contest of strength, but of knowledge of the weaknesses of yourself and those of others. Next week Rohan's Bizarre Adventure! |
 |
| Awesome episode. Cool to see Jotaro & Josuke hang out & go hunting. Ewww that corpse of melted rats was disgusting. Love how Jotaro incorporates his vast knowledge on animals to find the rats. Those rats are really smart. Poor Josuke feeling the pressure. Cool to see Jotaro use "The World". Love the sound effects. Even the rat was giving him trouble. Great shot by Josuke. Direct hit. |
"I’ve set myself to become the King of the Pirates…and if I die trying…then at least I tried!" Monkey D. Luffy (One Piece) |
| damn that rat was a tough bastard to beat |
 |
| I loved the shots with Jotaro in detail next to Josuke with a goofy look on his face. |
 |
| one of my favorite parts!! well adapted. love seeing these two, jotaro being the mentor and josuke learning with all his quirks. he reminded me of joseph a lot in this. his expressions were the best. |
tfw when ur stand is still very moe despite the pressure |
| this eps has a really great close-up shots, i mean those thicc lines man.. hmm looks like the time stop fart sound has moved to Za Hando from Star Platinum, i don't really like this new fart tbh great episode nonetheless, and NEXT eps we're moving to the main plot with rohan. |
