Intense! So glad to see Josuke's Stand in action again. It's been awhile.

Killer Queen's secondary attack (Sheer Heart Attack) looks impressive as well. Pretty tense episode, I love how Koichi freaks out several times during the episode when encountering Sheer Heart Attack. Kira's Stand is seriously badass though imo, one of my favorites from the franchise.

5 chapters adapted in this episode (and five more left from this arc). All that "Kocchi wo miro", lol. But Sheer Heart Attack is pretty OP, despite not having a mind of its own. Jotaro in injured though :( but at least Echoes evolved. Lol at Kira's hand feeling heavy. Next episode will be fun :D
"ORA ORA ORA" and the Stardust Crusaders theme always goes together perfectly :D

Wow. Araki. Joseph's transition from part 2 to part 3 was absurd when it comes to his fighting style/power. The way he performs his action has been completely nerfed and thus it made him almost useless. And now we have Jotaro... Pf. Koichi shines compared to him.

My high expectations were not disappointed. It's fun watching Jotaro fight again after so long. I just wish I didn't have to hear Kaji Yuki scream so much, it's really grating at times :v

Great actions all over. The animation quality wasn't as good as episode 22 imo, but still good. And I want the OSTs right now!!!
Act 3 is the S-H-I-T.
And I swear Sheer Heart Attack sounded just like Rikiya Koyama to me.

Jotaro's main issue is that any Stand that can't be defeated by him punching it is very difficult for him to beat. To give an example, even with Star Platinum: The World, he wouldn't be able to beat Yellow Temperance via punches. Compare that to Echoes who is physically weak, but has a wider range of what he can do with his Stand.

There's also the fact that many Stands in Part 4 could be easily beaten by Jotaro. Surface, The Lock, Love Deluxe, etc. Jotaro is used sparingly whenever a strong enemy shows up to highlight their strength while also preventing him from instantly solving whatever problem the cast faces that week.

Great action. So Act 3 power is applying gravity? Wish this episode is longer.

When this soundtrack appear,I was so hyped.

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.

Echoes' powers revolve around sound.

Act 3's power is to drop the bass.

Jotaro got fucked, it's awesome that just an extention of Killer Queen, the "unbreakable" Sheer Heart Attack took down the strongest lightning speed time stopping Star Platinum. Pretty convenient for Kira that he doesn't have to be close to use Sheer Heart Attack, the perfect way to deal with Jotaro, I also like that his hand got heavy after ACT 3 trapped SHA.
ACT 3 has the same voice actor as it's user.
Knew this part would pick up immensely after Kira started doing stuff.

This episode was the S.H.I.T It has no weaknesses.

The adaptation was really amazing,the music was on point (SC theme), act 3 was cool.

I'm hyped AF,the next week would be even better if they keep this level of animation and detail.

PD: I love that coat from jotaro.

It's fun being a side-character, you know





Also, I'm really enjoying the new Star Platinum emerging animation:





SC OST playing in the background when Jotaro ORAORA-ed SHA was fantastic!





ACT-3 theme is totally perfect, that electro-styled beats are exactly what ACT-3 should have as a theme!

Wow that was intense...it just keeps getting better! And here I thought last weeks episode couldn't be topped- David Pro proves me wrong yet again!!

It was great to see Jotaro in action...the little details are appreciated, especially with them weaving in the OST from Stardust Crusaders when Joseph or Jotaro pop up. You can tell there's a lot of love here which is rarity with a lot of anime nowadays!
Also, I laughed at Kira near end...way more than I should've. He's just so awkward whatever he does- it's like the ultimate foil to Dio. That poor waiter,

"What are you doing, sir?! How could you?"


As if past episodes didn't cement it anyway, it's definitely clear that Koichi is this season's Polnareff...even his stand gets character development XD
Despite Josuke being the MC, it's Koichi who first confronts the main villain in super saiyan mode. Loving Act 3 tho, my favorite act yet since it appears to give no shits whatsoever.

Only complaint is that we really haven't seen much of Josuke & that bugs me bc as a character he's got a whole lot to give. I didn't mind so much with Jotaro in part 3 since he wasn't really MC material in the first place, but Josuke is prolly my second favorite JoJo, but I feel like his lack of screentime is holding him back in the development area somewhat :/

Any manga readers tell me if that changes without spoiling anything?? It'd be much appreciated! ^^

Aside from having the wait for nxt week tho, there aren't any major complaints 10/10 episode!

Josuke IS the main JoJo in this part, and we've only get introduced to the main villain. Let the "side characters" deal with him for now. Josuke has other stuffs to deal with in his own style. And GOD they are amazing!

Sure. Josuke will get more screen time. I mean he is the main JoJo. Guess who will fight Kira in the end? Both of their stands are quite a counter to each other, so it will be interesting. You will like it.


Yep I thought that, what with Kira's stand being largely and instantly destructive...it'd definitely make it difficult for Josuke to heal people. Killer queen is more of an instant kill stand from what we've seen so it'll be interesting to see if and how they work around each others abilites!

I was so hyped to see jotaro use his stand again. I've missed that ora ora ora!. The stands just keep on getting more powerful as the show goes along. Sheer heart attack is something else. There's not many stands out there capable of beating jotaro. Koichi just got a new upgrade too. Next episode is going to be the S-H-I-T

Times like these, I'm so glad I don't read the manga. The suspense game is SO REAL.
So every week I'm not just waiting for a scene from the manga to be animated.
I'm waiting for the story to continue!!! I'm waiting to see the fate of this world's heroes!!

So proud of Koichi! And Echoes ACT 3 is hilarious. Cute boxer shorts, buddy.

Sheer Heart Attack is a beast. Incredible how the extension of an Stand can be so broken. Poor Jotaro really had a hard time (and the odds weren't precisely to his favor in the first place). Still admirable the fact he used the head trying to use that fire to bait Sheer Heart Attack.

Koichi's Echoes Act 3 is very cool. I like how he has some personality of his own. And he even managed to stop Sheert Heart Attack.
Koichi looked pretty badass in this episode. Only JoJo can make Yuki Kaji screams for about 8 minutes and make me still like his character.

The part when Kira accidentally ripped the waiter's clothes and the waiter saids with a deadpan tone that was cruel killed me xD

Is there an onomatopoeia for cold? Like "shiver" or something.

Kochi upgraded. Act 3!

This was the best episode in awhile. I loved seeing JoJo's wit in action again, along with the gloriously cheesy dialogue, and over-dramatic screaming that made the first two seasons so much fun.

Koichi was annoying this episode by not listening to Jotaro, but he's become such a scrub lately. With ZA WARUDO he shouldn't really have any trouble dealing with anyone really, even when having to save others. Act 3 was alright I guess...
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...

I loved Kira's arc, even his secondary bomb is a total beast.

The OST in this arc is top-notch it made me remember the good old days od Part1&2 where all the OSTs were masterpieces.
Koichi's arc has concluded with the apearance of ACT 3 who is the real man. Is that inner part of Koichi who is a cool brat that just say what he thinks.
