| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Rohan's great, always wanted to see his adventure arc being adapted so I'm glad to see it in animated form. Glad to see Reimi showing up this episode too. Got a thrilling feeling from this episode for sure. I think they picked a nice VA for the roles. They even kept the dog scene with minimal censorship. Pretty interesting stuff. Happy to see one of my favorite characters of the franchise showing up too.  |

| This episode was everything I hoped it would be and more. |
| So I haven't gotten to watch the episode yet, but I really want to know. Did they get Rikiya Koyama to voice him? |
| Damn, they replaced Rikiya Koyama. Now Kira is voiced by Toshiyuki Morikawa, who voiced Diavolo in ASB. To get thing even more funny, current voice of Rohan is a new voice of Berserk's Griffith, while Morikawa voiced him in the 1997 anime.

I think that sakurai takahiro is doing a much better job at voicing rohan. |

| Great episode and finally Kira is here :) |
| That episode definitely lived up to my expectations and even went past it. The directing was on point once again and they made the spooky part of the episode even more so. Everything about part 4's sound and animation directing and is just so much better than before imo. My personal most hated Jojo character is up next. Can't wait for what happens to him in a few more weeks. |

DAVID BOWIE TIME, YESSSS |
| HE IS HERE, GUYS! I honestly dont want to hype him this much, but I can't contain my fanboyism when he shows up. Great episode and the creepy element is as good as in the manga. I prefer Kira's old VA, but this is still okay. |
| Awww loved Kira's theme song aaa |
 |

| THIS EPISODE BLEW MY LITTLE MIND. First I got to see Rohan and lil Koichi interact with eachother in a POSITIVE situation. THEN we got to see our good ol' trio w/ Josuke and cute ol' Okuyasu. AND THEN I screamed when I knew that Kira had a severed arm in his car. I like how he literally tried to KILL Koichi because lil guy was onto him. SMH SOMEBODY CATCH THIS KID A BREAK. |

| Rohan was in that house when Reimi was killed, I wonder if Kira is the killer. I would have looked to see what was behind me for sure. The walk with the hand was creepy and great. |
 |
| Man, if you had told me five years ago that my favorite anime ever would be a mix of Ed Edd n Eddy, Scooby Doo, and Fist of the North Star, I would have said you were nuts, but here we are, and it's totally happening. I love how immediately awesome Rohan is. I mean, he was a great enemy, but I like how easily he fit into the group of protagonists (mostly because of how easygoing and forgiving Koichi is) and how instantly he stole the spotlight. Also gotta really love the way he "draws" his stand into physical form, it's so cheesy it's perfect. David Bowie has arrived for his killer tour in Morioh! I'm super hyped to see what he's gonna do when confronted with the main cast! |
  |
| Amazing ep. Reimi is absolute <3 AND KIRA HYPE!!! Dat Hand lol |
 |
| I enjoyed it, noticed it kind of had a purple tint to it (Unless thats just me). Also the episode really gave me chills, more than the manga did. |
| Everyone's missing another change: Reimi's Voice Actor is also a different one in this anime, but the new one also did really good job! |
 |
| Reimi's murder was a horror story that we used to tell when I was a child, so I was surprised to find it's known in Japan too... I wonder what's its origin |
WHY THE FUCK DOES KIRA HAVE DIAVOLO'S VOICE??????? |
 |
| Kira's theme is awesome but no Rikiya Koyama :( Now the real plot begins. |
| This was a fantastic episode and it was a great twist at the end that Rohan's past was involved with the murder and that Reimi actually knew him~! |
| Fantastic episode. I love how easily Rohan is forgiven by Koichi and just allowed to become part of the main cast. Really like Reimi too and how her backstory actually added depth to Rohan. Annnnnd now we get our first glimpse of Kira, so much hype. |
 |
| Great episode. We finally reached the main plot of the series and we are introduced (somewhat) to the main antagonist of this Part, David Bowie Kira. I love Reimi, she is very cute and her background is sad. She also saved Rohan's life, so God bless her. Araki continues again his tradition of killing dogs in the most gruesome ways, lol. I also found hillarious the fact that Rohan previously nearly killed Koichi, yet they still hang out like if nothing happened (at least Koichi reacted nervous for a moment). That is one of the things I love of JoJo. It was cool seeing Rohan saving Koichi of the ghosts and showing that he is not evil, he is just... Rohan. Btw, I found funny how they used Toshiyuki Morikawa to voice Kira when he also voices Diavolo in ASB and EOH (similar of what they did with Yuki Kaji and Koichi when he voices Johnny in those videogames). I would like having Rikiya Koyama, but, well, Morikawa is a very good voice actor, so nothing to complaint here. |

| Is Kira the endgame boss for part 4? |
Stay in yesterday 時を止めて |
| Welp that ending was real. Like holy shit, that has gotta be one of the best ways to introduce a villain...also this might not be particularly important, but is that arm the same one we saw in episode 1 or is Kira a bit of a fickle guy? Did he get a new one or something? Why does he only date one arm when he could have two?! This was probably one of my favorite episodes so far though- Reimi was adorable, Rohan is awesome and I can tell Kira is gonna be a treat just from those last few minutes! I don't wanna wait until next week!!!! |

| Eh another replace. Really liked Yoshi's ASB Voice because it had a slight psychotic undertone :/ At least shit get's real now. |
| I'm just sitting here waiting to hear "Kira Queen!!! Dai San no bakudan! Bite za dust!!!" |

Benphyre said: Yes and trust me that guy is the freaking bomb, figuratively and literally.Is Kira the endgame boss for part 4? Nice I am glad. I like how sick that dude is and was hoping to see him for the rest of part4. Is he better than Dio? |

| They got a good seiyuu for Kira, though the one used in the games were great. Hopefully the anime Kira is just as good, if not better. But yeah, Kira hype!!! Reimi's voice matches well, and it's always fun to see Rohan. In a couple of weeks, we'll see Kira shine. 5/5 Benphyre said: I like him more than Dio since he makes more sense and feels more down-to-earth. And some of the situations he'll have to go through will be hilarious. But he isn't as meme-worthy as Dio. KingRequiem said: At long last our savior has arrived !!!

| Jojolion anime when? |
| Kira shows up! :D Benphyre said: KingRequiem said: At long last our savior has arrived !!! Kira shall show all those Dio fags the true meaning of a Jojo antagonist.

I like how sick that dude is and was hoping to see him for the rest of part4. Is he better than Dio? Generally a lot of people praise him and Part 7's main antagonists as being greater than or equal to Dio in terms of villainy. He's my favorite main antagonist in the series for sure. |
| AAAYYEEEEEE :DD BUT his voice tho. I really don't know, it doesn't quite fit him, somehow. the tone is too... upbeat? casual? for a guy like him. I was expecting Koyama... well let's try and get used to it. I want to hear his nervous voice when push comes to shove. |
 |
| Leave it to Kira to steal a Rohan episode |
 |
| That was a great episode. It's about fucking time Kira appeared. |
| Dio was at his best in Part 1. In Part 3 he's a memelord but he lacks the emotional connection to the main cast. Sure, Jonathan is their ancestor but Dio wasn't tormenting Joseph and Jotaro all throughout their childhoods as he did Jonathan. I find that most of the things Phantom Blood didn't do well were corrected as they went on but the biggest thing it did well was reversed. Anywho, Kira time! |
apotheosi said: Reimi's murder was a horror story that we used to tell when I was a child, so I was surprised to find it's known in Japan too... I wonder what's its origin Was thinking the exact same thing. Now I'm confused lol. I was wondering when we were going to get around to seeing who's behind all of the severed arms. Looks like things are about to get serious. |
