I'm actually so glad they rushed this arc, because I kinda don't care what happens to Yukako or Koichi (two of the worst characters imo).

But next few episodes, duwang and Sheer Heart Attack, I'm so incredibly hyped.

I'm absolutely baffled as to how people are complaining about the pacing of this episode, it honestly wasn't the most interesting one anyway so more than one episode would have been ridiculous.

^Right? This is so much more preferable up against what quite a few other studios would do to get through 6 chapters of a manga.

Strangely didn't hate this episode, when I normally would. This episode makes me think a makeup wars shounen type of show could work. Also thinking , even if She picked the wrong face, would crazy diamond be able to fix it ?

This episode was pretty bad compared to the manga. I understand they are rushing it but this is too much. Granted, I'd rather this be rushed than key episodes, but I suspect key episodes are going to get this same treatment...

I absolutely hate to say it, and I doubt it will happen, but I'm starting to hope they skip a fight or two in order to make sure the final Kira episodes aren't rushed and don't have to skip scenes.


If anything, I'd say this and a few other less important arcs were rushed specifically so they wouldn't have to rush the key episodes and parts with Kira.

Especially since they swapped this with next week's arc. Now we get a lot of good stuff in a row, and honestly I don't think most people really cared about this arc, the character introduced was really the only important part. I think a lot more people would have been upset if they was any longer that one episode, especially after the swap.

The only reason there is a rush in the first place is because of the limited episode count though. That doesn't excuse anything. It's not like I personally wanted 5 episodes out of this arc or something but blasting through it in one episode is pretty much just renders it pointless outside of introducing Aya, and ultimately makes it unenjoyable.

Again I'm not so much irritated by this episode being extremely rushed as the prospect of future episodes being rushed, which is looking like an inevitability.

I love the artistic images used to make it look like it came from a fairy tale storybook. I find it really neat the ways they can use the budget in an episode without any elaborate battle sequences.

This episode made zero sense character wise. How the fuck did Koichi randomly fall in love with her?

It could just be DavidPro's pacing (Anime only watcher), but it literally went from her trying to rape him, and him being terrified of her, to suddenly him being in love.

At first I thought it was cause of the stand power that just forced him, which actually would have been a really good plotline, but then once the stand power leaves her, he's still in love.

So all I took away from this is that rapist girl who Koichi was terrified of basically drugs him into loving her, and that's supposed to be seen as something super romantic.

Definitely the worst episode of the entire series. Hopefully next episode gets back to the main plot

Koichi and Yukako getting together was really weird in the manga, yeah, but I'd say it's even stranger in the anime since DP adds a scene of Koichi running away from Yukako in terror just two episodes prior. Koichi hadn't interacted with her at all in the manga ever since her introduction arc, so there was possibly time for his feelings to change.

Next episode gets back to the main plot, though, so you should be fine there.

This episode was indeed quite rushed, but it was pretty obvious that Cinderella's power made Koichi fall in love with Yukako. But yeah, by the end he naturally started to like her.

Yukako looked so badass when crossing the road and yelling "Shut up! Blame the light for turning red!". lmao
I still feel it's too rushed and forced though it's the result of Cinderella's power. It would have been better and more natural if they had gone through more before they kissed. But anyway, that's not what Araki's famous for in the first place.
Good eye, Yukako. Koichi is a good guy.

Based on some of the earlier comments I had guessed those two would end up together. I just wish she had actually redeemed herself to actually earn Koichi rather than just falling for her for no reason. She basically tried to kill him. This is almost as bad as Krillen and 18 from DBZ. Have her save him or something

Urgh, this was actually the worst episode thus far for me. Even the rat thing was slightly more interesting but this...I don't even.

So Koichi up and falls in love with a girl who kidnapped him and put him through hell. Sure, makes sense to me. And offers to give up his sight for her because, oh well, reasons, I guess?
This romance was one of the most awkward things I have ever seen and that kiss scene not only defies sense but is an an anatomical disaster. Granter, JoJo often takes liberties with anatomy as it is but look at the angle of Yukako's neck in relation to Koichi's face.

At this point, I almost wish Rohan would replace Koichi entirely. Because Rohan is a lot more interesting, insane and actually has a very good reason to be interested in delving into the mystery deaths that somehow no-one seems to care much about for any sustained amount of time.

But oh well, it looks like episode 21 will finally get things back on track.

Eh, that was pretty weak tbh. Their romance feels so forced after the shit she put Koichi through and how she used the help of a stand to have him fall for her. It's also weird as hell how small he is compared to her.

Even the romance in JoJo is pretty good,but I would've wished that they made this at least a double episode,but well.

Felt bad for Yukako when she lost her face and was also moved by Koichi willing to sacrifice his eyesight for his love.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

I can't wait for the main villain (I guess Kira) to get into the story.

What a cute episode with heartwarming love story! ;) I really liked the idea of Aya's Stand - Cinderella, and her mission alone to be "Fairly Godmother". Cinderella's story pastiche was excellent.

Koichi and Yukako finally kissed, yay. To think she was close to forcing him to eat soap or wounding him badly just not long ago. xD

Damn, Morioh got the best fucking workers! Mangaka, Rohan with his realistic and creative stories, Chef Tonio with his bizarrely delicious food and now, beautist who grants happiness for women by finding them their love. They used stand in their own special field of work.

NGL The first kiss is actually very awkward.

In the end, Koichi fell in love not solely because of Yukako's treatments, but mostly because he got used to her demeanour and have started to warm up to her. The treatment is the catalyst to just push him further to actually love Yukako. Never actually thought that these 2 would actually be real couples, however, it only made me more interested in seeing what's to come!
