| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This episode got NOT a single drop of gore, except for the beginning's replay. Funny. But why Jotaro didn't bet the dog's soul, instead of his mother's? |
TitanioVerde said: Funny. But why Jotaro didn't bet the dog's soul, instead of his mother's? Betting his mother which is one of his sole reasons to go trough with this quest to begin with is a really effective way to show his opponent just how damn confident he is. |

| Jotaro is such a bad ass. |

| Damn that was one of the biggests bluffs I've ever seen! Impressive episode, not much happened but damn amazing! |
 |
| HO LY SHIT! Very tense! Very interesting. Jotaro's had a poker face from the beginning. I love how that smug ass hole Darby completely lost his shit! Don't think I've ever seen somebody defeated like that. |
| Love and Peace!!! |
| So yeah, the Darby ova fight was amazing, I totally get why someone would prefer it over the anime. It's almost a direct page to screen adaption, but the only downside in my opinion that since the entire fight is in one episode, it has to move at a lightning fast speed. It doesn't lose any quality, but since the anime version is two episodes it gets to move slowly and build an amazing atmosphere that's filled with tension. On the other hand, it's really cool seeing the entire fight in one unbroken sequence, so in the end for me I can't pick a favorite, I like them both equally. |

| Dam D'Arby looked like he had a seizure from that bluff by Jotaro.. nice mind fuck game |
| Really really intense. If I ever tried not looking at my cards in a poker game, I'd lose my shirt! Jotaro kicks ass! |

| Man, the voice actor (dubwise anyway) they chose for D'Arby is um...well, he's certainly something. And his put-upon use of "southern" dialect, definitely left something to be desired. |
| The D'Arby fight has always been one of Stardust Crusaders top battles, and this version definitely shows why. I do prefer the version from the TV anime but this one was still excellent, always loved gambling type scenarios. |
| As others have mentioned, the lightning fast pace that this episode followed felt uncanny. I genuinely checked if I was on 2x speed by accident. Further, the site I watched this on had a desync with audio and video making the already awkwardly fast pacing feel harder to follow. And the cherry on top was the dub coming off the worst it's been in my opinion, probably due to the dialogue heavy episode. I wanted to document that this culmination of events made for one of the coolest battles of the series to be unpleasant. |
| When Jotaro and D'Arby start playing, Jotaro says that D'Arby tried to deal him the second card. And says that the card on the top would go to D'Arby. Which makes sense. However, he then proceeds to pull the second card (the card the D'Arby had tried to deal to Jotaro), and adds it to D'arby's combination, telling that D'Arby would have had three-of-a-kind. Good point |

| This was really intense, I liked it more then the remake one |
| Holy fell into a coma. lol at them drinking in synch. A man wants to bet. Polnareff bet his soul. Polnareff lost. He's a Sutando user. His soul. He's dead? D'Arby. Daniel J. D'Arby. It was his cat. lol at Hershey's. Joseph's turn. Joseph lost. Jotaro's turn. LMAO at Star Platinum breaking his finger. He's using Avdol's chips as well? The kid is with D'Arby? Jotaro is smoking. Jotaro is drinking. LMAO at D'Arby! D'Arby passed out. He lost. Dat ending. Great episode. The way D'Arby folded had me dying. Great performance by Utsumi. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| was worried the darby fight would have gotten skipped peakkkk happy joseph still does a little trolling lmao i thought they would have skipped him calling darby names |
  me candies:        |
| It would be a dream come true to see this episode, as is, but a bit longer, to have the tension build-up from the tv adaptation. Maybe one day with AI? lol |
