Probably gonna be my only real complaint about this manga but I really don't like that Araki changed Sandman's character like that. It invalidates the first chapter of this manga. I saw no reason as why Sandman couldn't have just finished the race outside of Araki thinking that it'd be a real shocker if it turned out that he secretly worked under the president. It's just a bit upsetting since I was rooting for him and his plight but that's instantly invalidated with this.

Furthermore, it's a damn shame he had to go since his stand is a great jazz album. Damn.

I think the reveal still fits his character on some level. In the first chapter Sandman tells his sister that their old ways weren't fit for the "white man's world" and he would earn money to protect the tribe since that was how the new world worked, so I think it makes sense that Sandman would ally with the government as he's come to accept the new world order brought about by colonization.

You have a point there. Maybe I'm just upset because I didn't want him gone this quickly. Also, I realize that I posted this in the chapter 45 thread instead of the chapter 40 thread. Whoops.

Well bro, I'm not going to do a summary of a chapter, if something "cool" or "important" happens I'll say it, nothing more.

Woah, Johnny can even eat spaghetti with his finger! xD

Haha, Gyro's finding out how the ability of Sugar Mountain works like was hilarious when he "won" the money. Good that he found out the secret behind those riddles.

But bad that this cute girl is a guardian of a tree that is... what exactly? Stand user? Or maybe it's that girl who unconsciously uses that kind of powers?

I really like how her stand works. It's an interesting concept that I am excited to see how it plays out.

I liked this chapter a lot! Just when I thought that things went a bit too smoothly with the adorable little Sugar Mountain, she ended up revealing the big catch while the Nameless 11's quickly catching up with them at the same time.

I wonder what she really means by using things up, hm. It's worded so vaguely that you might just end up turning into a fruit no matter what you do.

I actually don't believe sandman siding with the president in fits his character. He knows the president can't be trusted, why would he believe any promises he made for the corps parts? He likely knows the president wouldn't trust him and would kill him and take the part given the opportunity. Sandman stated that he wants the parts so he can bargain with the president. So why didn't he just try and find the parts himself ahead of the protagonist? Or stalk them to find out how to get them. Or ask Dio?
Also he said he didn't want to kill the protagonist. This implies that he doesn't like senseless murder. So then why did he kill dot han like that? And the Japanese guy?
