Do you mean JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (2012)? It is on hold (10/26) but yea, I saw a lot of MCs and support characters die there. As sequel I was specting some deaths here as well.

Ah, I see. Well character death is kind of something Jojo is famous (infamous?) for. Sometimes it happens when you don't expect it, and sometimes it doesn't happen when you do expect it. So while him coming back to life in this episode might have been a major asspull and arguably a low point in the series as far as plot progression is concerned, this series has shown that it isn't afraid to kill off characters when the time comes for it. We're not even halfway through Stardust Crusaders yet, so anything can happen still.

Wow, that was a crazy twist.
Polnareff literally had chunks of flesh and muscle ripped out. There is no way that he recovered that fast. Anime is never good at drawing on deep cuts.

Jojo is pretty bad about this. I mean, he lost like a huge chunk from the back of his ankle in the Devil fight and yet is able to walk just fine.

I wonder how strong Judgment is without that “make 3 wishes from the dirt” gimmick,. I would think he is pretty strong and fast , at least according to Polnareff and seeing him defend Chariot`s attack. But alas he was no match for Magician`s Red.

I would think that Jotaro would just ignore the “3 wishes” gimmick and ora ora-ed him in the first 3 minutes of the battle.

It's really nice to see Abdul again, but coming back to life with circumstances like this, and denying that he was killed.. meh/ It looks like a cheap asspull.


It is a cheap asspull. Reason being that the editors made Araki bring him back, because the polls showed Avdol was popular.
'

This is so funny to me. Though I guess if Avdol died like ONE PIECE SPOIULER
, fewer fans would've asked for the dishonor of his death with his asspull of a revival.

His Stand Stats have him at B Rank strength (compared to Silver Chariot's C) and B Rank Speed (compared to Silver Chariot's A).

YES! Avdol is alive. No wonder Jotaro and Joseph didn't care about avenging Avdol and just let Hol Horse run away in India.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

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.

The reason the sister was naked is because Cameo was still trying to create the illusion that he was actually raising the dead. Once it was revealed that she was a zombie clay doll, it didn't matter anymore.

Man this show has been a huge let down. I didn't like it when it started but I slowly started to warm up to it. But the recent episodes have been consistently fucking awful. Avdol alive again... really? Major disappointment bringing back a character that was dead seems like the writer doesn't give a fuck about plot holes. I'm really done with this show, just waiting for the Dio fight at the end because it looked great from what I saw in the old version.

Oh theres the fact that Avdol "died" with his clothes on, and Sherry died after being raped...So she probably wouldn't be wearing clothes.

The explanation for Avdol's death made sense, even if it was pulled out of nowhere. Also, another fight being wrapped up with the power of bodily functions!

They are almost to Egypt! I'm liking it so far, apparently the Egypt arc is even better!

I don't think you have much room to talk about a mangaka being an idiot considering Elfen lied is a stupid piece of garbage. Just my 2 cents. Jojo is supposed to be out there, and wacky.

Whether or not Elfen Lied is crap (it is btw) has nothing to do with Jojo's quality. Him liking it is no reason to dismiss his opinion on the matter

It seems to me that bringing up an anime completely irrelevant to the discussion from somebody else's list is the go to knee-jerk reaction to whenever somebody disagrees with somebody else tastes in MAL. The whole list and trying to objectively quantify an individual piece of fictions' quality has always been pretty fucking stupid. People here take lists and scores WAY too seriously. It's mostly a mechanic used starting circle jerks and petty little cliques.

Where the hell did you get Russian and semi-Chinese?
Basically :
Kakyouin, Jotaro--> Japanese
Polnaref -->French
Joseph--> British (I assume he has been Americanized for living there so long though. He probably has dual citizenship of USA and UK)
Abdul--> Egyptian

Well, I agree about the Polnaref part.
His hair color is misleading.
But I think Kakyouin dresses a bit Chinese. After all, every anime must have a Chinese character!

I was talking about nationality in terms of citizenship. That`s why I touched on the possibility of Joseph`s dual citizenship. Japan does not allow dual citizenship so his nationality in terms of citizenship is most likely Japan.

And even if you were to talk about nationality in terms of blood line, Jotaro would be considered half Japanese half British. Think about Lisa Lisa. She is not Italian. She just happened to live there.

Not sure if you are trolling. I guess I will respond as if you are really serious. There is no indication what so ever that Kakyouin is Chinese or even partially Chinese. He cloth are standard Japanese school uniform. Or anime version of it anyway. And finally, there are plenty of Anime without any Chinese characters

Considering they pulled off what is generally considered the worst Stand battle in Stardust Crusaders so well, I'm pretty confident the second half is going to kick all sorts of ass.

My bad. I was thinking of Lisa Lisa instead of Suzie when I was thinking about the origin of Jotaro`s 1/4 blood line.

He is Japanese in terms of citizenship though. That was my main point.
