geralt said: Yeah the alien thing came a bit from nowhere, but whatever this is JoJo. I'm loving already how a silly idea of Josuke to make money made things as tense as a villain appearing. Also really liked how Josuke and Okuyasu were pretty much having a conversation telepathically at the beginning. They're either talking through their Stands or they've achieved the higher level of bromance where they formed a telepathic connection. |
Repose said: They cut some things, unfortunately :< Josuke practicing with Mikitaka and him starting to puke - Josuke and Okuyasu at the start of the alien chapter and (weirdly enough) the kid spying on his mom and Kira. A bit disappointed about that too. That's probably my favorite part about this Mikitaka arc. Dizzee said: why would they introduce an alien all of a sudden? This is the first time I see a TV shows doing something that doesn't belong in it but it was enjoyable though. Are you really sure that he's an alien, though? lol Well, the opening is... not good enough for now, but I definitely love the visuals. About the episode, probably the funniest one so far imo. |
| Anybody knows the title of the song from the beginning? The one from the radio. |

Grimmgeta said: Edit: Oh yeah, they left the scene of Hayato spying on Kira out too didn't they? Well at the end of Kira's scene, the camera zooms in on a suspicious lens/hole in the ceiling, implying that somebody's watching them (namely Hayato.) I guess it wasn't implied enough for audience to know that somebody's watching "Kosaku". |
This outfit deserves its own post. Kishibe Rohan, explain this mess of an outfit, please. What is any of this. Why put the belts around your knee but not around your waist. Why wear pants that are 10 sizes too big anyway. And did you accidentally stab your shirt with scissors and wash it at 80°C? This is by far my favourite slutty Rohan outfit. |
 |
The pants are very 90s, dunno about the knee belts ahaha. But yeah I love his outfits. I can't wait for his other little white number with the high zipped up boots/shoes. Hnnng! So much visual inconsistency with this series but I feel like they do make an effort to present Rohan at an above average standard. nice forum avatar btw Anyway, Mikitaka my strange boy. He doesn't seem as weird as he should be or maybe i've gotten used to all of this... OP is meh, though I do like some sequences but as someone said: 0 energy. |

| DAMN I LOVED THAT NEW EPISODE That opening was really sweet, really like the visuals and music. 1st and 3rd op are really upbeat compared to the 2nd opening though, tbh Josuke's get rich quick of the week :P |
| I love how Josuke ran into a shapeshifting alien and the first thing he thought to do with it is to use it to cheat in a dice game. |
 |
| After delivering the past seasons campy vampires, 15 years old students who looks like a man of 30 years and cyborg nazis, now JoJo brings us an alien. Simply beautiful. Man, seeing Josuke trying to scam Rohan was really hillarious. Hope Rohan's doesn't end too burned at the end of the game :v That alien was a nice dude, he didn't thought two times before helping Josuke when he saved his life. Totally a great bro. His Legalaslesque design only helped that. |
 |
not gonna lie, this shot made me tear up a lil:  |
| Kinda dissapointed in how they adapted the episode. Can't wait for next week. |

| ;) And speaking about that shot, I think totally the same. If they would have added Josuke's grandpa, that would have been even more moving. |
|
| DiU: Top tier part of JoJo with bottom tier openings. Sure it's better than a lot of anime's and I still prefer this OP to Chase, but it's weird that they've gone back to a more upbeat song tonally. Animation was a bit hit or miss, but they still managed to hit all the right notes to make this episode enjoyable and that's what counts IMO. Especially if that means the animation in Highway Star is going to be amazing. Also the missing scene from the Kawajiri household is probably going to be animated next episode, since DP seem to be splitting the content so there's more Kira more frequently. |
 |
| Regarding the OP, I don't really see it as "upbeat" in the same way as Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town was. It's kinda melancholy (past the BREAKDOWN BREAKDOWN part) but I think ultimately hopeful, and kinda fits the atmosphere of "townspeople band together to expel a tumor of their society". |
| Decent new OP song. Gonna take a few more times before I get use to it. Nice visuals though. Kira fighting the urge to not murder any females. Shinobu is so cute. She really wants him. Hmm an Alien in Morioh. LOL casually eating those tissues & he can transform into practically anything. Josuke was flying. How cool. LOL now to scam some money off Rohan cause why not. |
"I’ve set myself to become the King of the Pirates…and if I die trying…then at least I tried!" Monkey D. Luffy (One Piece) |
| Might just be me but the scene from where Josuke went to challenge Rohan and forward, the character designs seemed to have changed. Maybe I'm just seeing things. Anyways, I can't say I'm too fond of throwing in aliens out of no where, but at least the episode was amusing. |
| One of the funniest chapters from the manga. I really enjoyed this episode. And yep, it's sad that the best JoJo arc is having the weakest opening themes. At least this new OP is an improvement over the previous one. I like it. |
Good episode, and with an alien |
| Mikitaka is adorable. I love him. I hope he sticks around. |
| This episode is so funny yet feel so short at the same time. Gotta love it when Josuke and Okuyasu telepathically wanting to punch someone. |
| So they're moving into Highway Star next episode. Should be interesting to see how they manage that transition, since it's a pretty different thing compared to moving from Kira to Josuke. |
 |
| Guys, we need to talk about the most important part of the OP. Koichi not doing an awkward pose. Our memes are dying. I feel that the reaction to every new Jojo OP is, "this song sucks." because it happened to C.N.B.T, it happened to Chase and now Great Days. For me, C.N.B.T > Great Days > Chase (music wise). It took me two listens to like Great Days while it took a couple of episodes for Chase. Also, are they going to update/replace the ED. I don't see how they can add more to the ED and it is rare for a 13+ episodes anime to have 1 ED let alone a 25+ in this day and age. |

| The new OP is still not as good as Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town aka the 1st one. I'm sure that alien comes from extraterrestrial planet named Middle-Earth The game is funny af, whoever wins would be an entertaining sight I believe |

| what!!!! An Alien Omg He can change into anything. Scamming Rohan sensei oh no. |
| Where the fuck is the new ending? 3 openings already and only one ending, god dammit. |
| The guy who voices Mikitaka does Funny Valentine of Part 7 in the JoJo games. You can sort of hear it, too. The anime is taking a lot of the game's established voices which is interesting. Johnny does Koichi, Diavolo does Kira, etc. |

His outfit must have been designed by Square Enix. Awesome episode this week. So much better than the last. The "alien" dude is funny. I like the new OP a lot. Reminds me of the older OPs in parts 1 and 2. Also, it needs to be said. Someone, please, get Shinobu something to drink. The THIRST is real. |
| garbage visuals, characters that are literally forgotten after this point get heaps of screen time, horrible song what the fuck David, just bring back the company that did the previous OP's Vento Aureo is getting closer every week feelsgoodman |
 |
| This new OP really makes Chase stick out as the odd opening. |
| The episode was kinda funny and the segment about Kira's new life was good. Although, the animation quality was the worst throughout the episode. I really loved the new opening, though. The visuals were stylish and the music sounds more satisfying to me than the grungy sounding Chase. But that's just musical preferences. |
| Meh, the opening is fine, I think it would grow on me and so does everyone else imo. I still remember when Sono chi no kioku was deemed the worst OP of JoJo and when DIO break it on the later episode, people suddenly deem it as the best thing mankind has ever created. |

| Love the easter eggs in the new OP, especially those hints to my favourite part 5. I felt like being attacked by As an anime-only spectator of DiU, I'm not sure if this new upbeat song will fit the following story or not. Since Chase has grew on me, I guess I will like Great Days later on. Shinobu's reactions to Kira is always interesting to watch. Kase Yasuyuki voices the alien guy who I assume is not a main character, so there's still a chance that he will voice in part 7, right? Please, let him~ I like his voice in ASB. Oh, Rohan's new outfit, lol. He just loves bare-midriff tops, doesn't he? And he has to show us his pants with versace/versus logo, I don't know. |
 |
| Fck yeah no more Chase . Finally my fav character is here , Highway Star next . |
| I like this opening more than other two. Both the visuals and song is good |
ozzynothing said: Okay I love jojos it's one of my favorite shows but just wondering. This has been buggin the shit out of me why is it that if jotaro can use the world . Why doesn't he just use it and directly kill kira while time was stopped that's the entire reason dio was so almighty and powerful it just looks stupid if you have someone with the strongest power yet you have to wait 15 episodes to wait to see how they overcome this villain? I mean isn't that a possibility ? I know it's a story and it's gotta be entertaining and what not but if I'm missing something someone tell me like "just wait and see what makes Kira dangerous" Jotaro can't spam it because he's a human and it took a lot of stamina/energy/whatever to stop time not to mention he can only stop around 1-2 seconds anyway. |
 he takes what he's lost and discards what he's won, he's every bit as alive as you and I |
| New op has excellent visuals, but the song is by far the worst of all Jojo OPs till now |
Tao-Sianu said: But in that shot Keicho was also present, and he wasn't killed by Kira.Illyricus said: And speaking about that shot, I think totally the same. If they would have added Josuke's grandpa, that would have been even more moving. I don't think Josuke's grandpa would have fit with the shot since (and correct me if I've screwed up the details, I have a crappy memory) the characters shown in that shot were killed by Kira whilst Josuke's grandpa was killed by the 'water dude'. I would guess the point of the shot is to show Kira's victims, or at least the 'main' ones we've seen in the story. |
|
| Liked the episode. Hated the opening. |
| That opening owned the 90's vibe & the visuals were suitably fab so I'm very happy!! That stuff with Shinobu and Kira had me on the floor, I swear to god I have never seen a man look so terrified when a woman removes her clothes XD The thirst is real with her haha And an honest to god alien? This arc really is pulling out all the stops! Also I think Josuke's been spending too much time with that swindling father of his...Joseph must be bringing out his son's inner asshat. I love it!! |

| I actually like the new opening Sono chi no sadame>end of the world>chase>bloody stream=great days>stand proud>CNBT At this point im not gonna be mad if they outsource the last episodes to korea, it's been established by now part 4 has less budget than 3. Im not gonna have my hopes high for highway star or AOBTD |

| QUALITY strikes again, but this time it's more forgivable because the characters and situations are entertaining enough that I could totally look past them and get engrossed in what's happening. I do feel bad for Mikitaka in these chapters, for being used by Josuke like this. Not many may agree with me, but I think Mikitaka is the best character of Part 4, aside from Kira. So funny, and yet so kind and endearing, too. Quite hype for what begins next week, naturally. |
