So he's back huh? that bastard, Dio. And he's taken over Jonathan's body.. damn

I don't like Jotaro's attitude. Cocky and arrogant bitch. For me the protagonist is still Joseph. It will take time before I can accept the new Jojo.

First thing I noticed was that Sugita wasn't the voice actor for Joseph Joestar anymore :(

Looks like Dio is really making a return, can't wait to see how things turn out.

Also, it's been a little while since I read the manga, but I don't remember Jotaro calling Holly a bitch?.


Well, the only manga scanlation available called her a "Woman", but searching the web for Japanese slangs and bad words, the most accepted translation for "Ama" is bitch.

So, it's not Chruncyroll that is at fault, it's the original translation that was trying to soften it, or just simply incorrect.
Haha, nice try. Problem is Japanese doesn't actually have swear words, just ruder ways of calling someone man/woman. So a really rude way of saying "woman" still doesn't equate to bitch.
And really, when do manga translations soften things? That's hilarious! It's almost always the complete opposite.

Anyway, typical episode. With the pacing of Hokuto no Ken.

Well, sometimes manga translations imply something that's less dark/inappropriate than what happens in the Japanese version of the manga.

Heard this season was rather episodic (thus not as good as S1),so marathoning through this to get to the Egypt arc which is apparently where Part 3 gets really good.


Even though it is episodic, it is miles better than S1

Characters, enemies, stand abilities, humor are far better than anything in season 1. At least that my opinion.

That's some good parenting right there.

Jotaro/his stand is a total boss, getting beer, boomboxes and shonen jump into prison.
Is Holly simply a Genki-woman who always sees good in her son regardless of him calling her a bitch?

Joeseph's Stand is a punch of vines.

I saw the first 4 episodes back when it started and I just said to myself "Fuck it. I'm gonna BD this when its all done." Here I am. I'll repeat what I said back then: This episode is amazing.

Holy frick can we stop and discuss about how awesome old JoJo fucking is

Also Jotaro but he's kind of a dick lol (for now at least that's my impression xD)

ayyyy this is gonna be a very interesting ADVENTURE

but yeah I'm gonna miss Joseph :'( why can't he still be the main character

You have to be extremely "lucky" to find that kind of treasure.
Joseph has lost some of his "charm" over the years but he is still cool.
Jotaro has that bad boy vibe and his mother is too nice.

Found Jotaro pretty unlikable in this episode and I'm not that into the idea of stands, I'm hoping both of these things grow on me as it goes on.

Also not really liking the idea of Dio coming back.

I'm really having high expectations because of how great Part 2 was. I still have to adjust to the fact that Joseph isn't the main character anymore. I feel like he's going to be hard to top but I hope Jotaro can at least be within that realm as the new MC.

Holly's so dense that she's cute. Haiii~

Stands are the new main power of the series, it seems :3

They finally pointed out the Joestar Star. I'd like to get a tattoo of that someday.

Dio's back and in Jonathan's body...I'm curious as to where the head ended up.

Part 3 (or technically the OVA) was the one that got me interested in the whole series in the first place. I only watched a few episodes of the OVA, but that’s enough to intrigue me.

I still remembered how amazed I was when I watched this ep for the first time, cuz it revealed a lot more fantastic details than what the OVA had. Basically everything is much better than that in the OVA, from the art style, to the OST, to the voice actors, to the faithfulness to the manga.

Lol the title hit the mum in the face when she’s so happy about being treated rudely by her son.
Joseph was so funny and his character was so different from that in the OVA. Love the interactions between the father & daughter. I wish I had a dad like Joseph~

And the best in the world is back, Joseph! It's strange how he looks old despite being this strong. His mother was a dashing beauty at the age fifty.

New arc, new JoJo. From his army-style outfit, I was hoping for Joutarou to be more respectable, would have been a nice throwback to Jonathan - turns out he's another rebellious brat. Should be interesting to see how his development contrasts with Joseph.

Not sure how I feel about the new version of Hamon, thorns coming out of Joseph's hand? Turning Joseph into a side character fortune teller itself seems kind of strange, perhaps he'll take after Speedwagon's mentor-role.

side note: did they have to give Joutarou's mom peas for brains? I know gender equality wasn't exactly perfect back in the late 1900s but damn! Still not over how they portrayed Lisa Lisa's final fight :-/

The fight system with the stands looks interesting and I already like Jotaru more than Jonathan and Joseph tbh. The delinquent attitude fits him.

And holy shit Dio is back :D

Think I'm gonna enjoy this more than the prequel.

A very strong start. It's told us a lot about Joutarou, Holly and the re-emergence of Dio without too much information dumping. It's got me fully ready to continue JoJos. So let's do this!

It's sad to lose the voice of Tomokazu Sugita as Joseph, but I guess it's necessary to have an older seiyuu for an older Joseph. He does feel natural as Joseph with years more experience. Less humorous but you can tell he's still Joseph.

Jotaro certainly doesn't look 17 y/o, neither does Kakyouin, they both look 22 at most.

Jotaro kicks ass tho

FINALLY! Stands are here. The magic system looks interesting, but this is still too soon to form a proper opinion. Joseph's Stand seems a bit lame though.

Only one question that has been irritating me since the Stinger of the Battle Tendency. Just where did Dio get the coffin from!? Erina took the one he had arrived with on the ship to escape with Lisa so how the hell did he get the same coffin to escape with again!!!!? i feel they just glossed over the specifics...

a new jojo but he is not even a joestar... damn why he he had only a daughter
so the family tree is jonathan joestar... jorge joestar... joseph joestar.... holly joestar and then jotaro kuujou.. damn the joestar line continues but now jojo is half japanese...

Dio returns in jonathan's body ... well That is just sad the man sacrified himself.... but he was able to protect his family for hundred years so that counts for something...

Jotaro is different than Jonathan and Joseph, but is interesting as a character as well! :) I just don't get his attitude towards his mom and cursing her, lol.

Holly Kujo de domo Joestar is sooo similar to Suzie Q.

The Stands look completely amazing! Battle between Stands looks also dank and spectacular. I see much potential in it. Times changed and Hamon is not enough, it seems. Oh, and one more thing: DIO is back after decades of slumber!

Pretty cool start!

Joseph’s lost a bit of his youth charm but he’s still bloody cool even now! Jotaro gets his nickname “Jojo” from his classmates, now that’s special. Interesting tidbit on the Stands by the way, I’m curious to know more about this psychic-like power and that was some showdown between Abdul and Jotaro. Holly seems to have taken her careless side from her mother lol but she’s seriously just way too nice (Haiii~). And seems like Dio is back and already up to something. I think I’m slowly understanding the joke on Dio’s persistent appearance and ‘fake demises’. Interesting little info on the Joestar birthmarks too, I wonder when it started appearing from and why.

Next episode preview promises some more Stands fighting so looking forward to that! It’s surely one of Dio’s underlings so I wonder if they can spill some info from him.
