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...


With Koichi there if Jotaro went after Kira then Koichi could've died. It still is a bit plot hole-y but I feel this the best explanation, which means that yes Koichi is at blame on why Kira wasn't defeated this episode.

I love how this eps gives a subtle message: always listen to your parents lol

This eps was great. Echoes act 3, SHA, star platinum's the world but i prefer last week's eps mainly bcs of killer queen

Still a 5/5

Sheeeerrr Heart Attack!!

Great seeing Star Platinum again and ACT 3 is finally animated as well. It always seemed to me that Koichi was acting out of character at the beginning of this arc, but I guess confronting a serial killer would do that to a person. It also goes to show that despite how strong Star Platinum may be that even it runs into issues when it can't just overpower the enemy.

Next week more heavy handed antics from Kira. It'll be gut bustingly funny stuff.

Fantastic episode. Love how Jotaro analyses the situation & deduces who Kira could be.
Great of him to mentor Koichi & provide advice.

Sheer Heart Attack is so tough & dangerous. Star Platinum did nothing to it.
Echoes ACT 3 looks so cool. Another evolution for Koichi.
S-H-I-T

Josuke better get there quick to heal Jotaro.

Kira going to have to retrieve Sheer Heart Attack.

So heart attack supposedly has no weakness according to Kira. And he seems to be right since after getting some ora ora ora beatings by Star Platinum it remains undamaged. Jotaro was constantly telling Koichi to not do anything because Kira is a dangerous murderer who killed a ton of people without getting caught so obviously he wouldn't be that easy to catch. They should simply fallback and then come up with a plan to take him out. But Koichi started to think that he's being underestimated and acted against Jotaro's orders. And that resulted in Jotaro being injured badly. Heart attack follows heat but will only disappear after blowing up a living being. Blowing up a light bulb or a stove won't make it disappear. And Kira realizes that there's something wrong as heart attack should have done its job by now. And Echos act 3 come out who looks weird and can talk unlike almost every other stand (stuff like ora ora ora doesn't count). And this evolved form has some cool powers which requires rhyming words. Josuke has been told to come to the centipede shoe store to heal Jotaro. Kira was about to come too but he broke a cup and then the table so he can't come now.

It's a shame that was added by the translators. It's not in the original version.

Act 3 respond to everything Koichi said. Is this the first time we seen a Stand that has it's own consciousness/mind?
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.

Oh, hey, it's literally the same idiotic bullshit all the Jotaro haters constantly spew out.

Koichi did a fine job shocasing how a huge part of the fanbase treats Jotaro and his antics.

Shigechi was pretty annoying too but at least he was entertaining and not crying all the time. Watching Koichi makes me want to commit a murder.

Koichi seems pretty normal imo. He felt like Jotaro was looking down on him, and people don't like to be looked down upon. (Especially teenagers.)
I'm glad he got his act together and got a new sassy Act 3 too.

Jotaro though. Josuke get your ass over here. (Please.) 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.


You have to keep in mind Jotaro got taken out because he took a blow instead of Koichi. If he was solo it would've been different.

Good epsiode, although I think Koichi VA screamed way too much in thsi episode.

S.H.I.T. Had me in stitches!

Whatever weaknessed Jotaro has, I really wished that Koichi would shut up a little and listen to him in the first place. Experience goes a long way sometimes.

If anyone is interested, thats how it looked in the manga, when ACT 3 was swearing "mission fucking accomplished". I miss that line in anime:


That was a translation liberty taken by the new scanlators, actually.
What we were really missing is the "Ass fuckin' " line from Echoes in the page before that.

Great episode as always ,but... why didn't koichi just use Echoes to write COLD on himself and Jotaro ? It was such a plain solution .


Act 2 can only put one SFX at a time. It would have protected one of them, but left the other exposed.

It stops time for one second now. And having the ability to stop time doesn't mean much if you're up against an enemy that can't be beaten by punching. Remember Yellow Temperance?

There's no way they're going to cram the rest of DiU into 13 episodes.

We're just now starting Volume 39 of the manga, which means there's still around 7 and a half more volumes to cover before it completes. Not even the adaptations of Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency were THAT breakneck. (~12 volumes in 26 episodes)

Koichi went through his expected SSJ2 power-up but to shake it a bit, he had an attitude before the level-up (while Gohan reacted so only after). He got a mini-Frieza whose power has to do with weight/gravity... is the Dragon Ball hommage this character and his Stand's only reason to be ? (at first it was really funny but it might become slightly heavy if this goes on)

Kira's Stand is pretty uninteresting ability-wise. At least, the "unbeatable" aspect of the form presented here makes it better. I thought every new stand would have crazy designs and powers, once the author freed himself from the Tarot. Anyway, there were more than enough funny/great ideas on the road to this villain and Stardust Crusaders had its pack of nice ideas too.

One of the best episodes of JoJo, period. Jotaro being a badass again and using his quick wit. Then Koichi pulling it together and the evolved form of Echoes. And just the entire episode with Sheer Heart Attack hunting them down was so intense. Great stuff. I loved every minute.

The anime is making me dislike Koichi, it must be his voice. Sheer Heart Attack is easily the most annoying stand ever. The fight was very good though, loved the soundtrack.

I can't pinpoint the reason, but it was just so thrilling to watch star platinum punch the shit out of that little tank, even though it wasn't really doing damage. I don't know why, it just felt really satisfying to me.

Sheer heart attack was awesome, I thought that it's simplicity added to it's scariness, and the way it keeps repeating the same line made it more intimidating. Kira's stand (and all its accessories) are the fucking strong. I would say it might be a little overpowered, but he is kind of taking on an entire town of stand users, and some of them have some extra abilities of their own.

Speaking of which, Koichi's act 2 evolves into act 3! I really like stands with their own personality, and I'm glad that they're few and far in between because it makes them seem more unique. It also helps when they're hilarious and back talk to their users, a trait act 3 shares with surface.
