| Haha, thats my boy Koichi, this is why he is my fav of the main guys. I really like his stand ECHOES (Not Reverb thats just to avoid Copyright) even though its weak at first glance proberly used it becomes strong. Also like his SSJ hairstyle and him saying "i wont forgive you". Im also glad this was finished in one ep., for guys not reading the manga the stand of the week will be a pain to deal with. <Spoiler> |
| Tamami is not initially short in the comic. In that, he's just as tall as Josuke and only becomes short when humiliated & humbled as we see at the end of the episode here. |
| Always remember that anime is a niche medium in Japan. Manga sells way better |
| I can't get throught of the poor cat in the beginning of this episode..... :'( |

| Oh heck yeah. Koichi is totally awesome. |
| wow I just they didn't make Kobayashi tall at first like he was in the manga :c still a good episode tho |

cardin said: The part with the mom was quite frustrating - how a shady-looking stranger could induce a mom to doubt her own son to such extent, but I'll just pretend that The Lock stand multiplies guilt to insane levels. But... it does. That's why she suddenly decided to commit suicide out of nowhere. |

I was under the impression that The Lock just caused unbearable discomfort, since Koichi and Okayasu didn't appear to suffer from more guilt when the lock manifested. |

Interesting something to note- Have any theories as to why they shrank him early? (I have not read the manga) I would guess that the producers wanted him to seem like a petty person early in the series (?) |

| That evil, annoying little shit of a con man should have just been killed. Echoes/Reverb is an awesome Stand!! |
 |
| Funny you say that cause literally everyone I know thinks he's one. (much to my regret) In any case, the episode was pretty hilarious, and I think Yuki Kaji pulled off a great performance. |

| Finally Koichi's stand. That last line was the best "Dont ask me, I'm not smart." lmfao |
| Some-Stuffs version is finally out! http://www.some-stuffs.com/index.php?topic=114.0 Sorry it took forever to anyone that uses our subs. We had a rough weekend cause of final exams, but we should be back on track with episode 7! |

| Very funny episode, I loved the SSJ reference then I couldn't stop laughing when the "baby"-like Cell larva came out and showed off. 5/5 Why should people call this a rip-off? Toriyama himself insisted for Katsura to make the a SSJ out of the Mega Play-Boy in DNA². The Jojo's author worked in the same magazine, I wonder if this was coming this time from Araki or from Toriyama again. |

For the same reason people called Pacific Rim a NGE ripoff, Getter Robo a TTGL ripoff (i'm not kidding, there were people who actually thought this) and Stardust Crusaders a Persona ripoff. People are dumb. |

| @HigashikataJojo Doesn't sound like a synonym at all: there is a big difference between doing a shameless copy and being inspired by another work. edit: all my excuses and thank you. It was never my intention to trigger such a strong reaction. By the way, I was juxtaposing the two quotes because yours seemed right when the general reaction suggested in the above one was exaggerated. |

| Interesting stand ability. Alright episode. |
 |
Agreed. Interesting stand abilities. |
| ---------My Profile------------ |
| Koichi's sister is so hot. So what, his stand turns people into DJ Boards? |
  |
| Silver haired super saiyan looks bad af |
| This Tamami guy really pissed me off. He’s greedy AF. So happy to see Koichi man up and go super saiyan. Echoes is a very unique stand ability. A bit touched when Koichi threw the onomatopoeia words to his mum and she started to believe in him. What a genius way to use your stand ability, Koichi! And the sound effects are great! Koichi’s sister looks cute and hot. Lmao Okuyasu said at the end “Don’t ask me, I'm not smart. Remember?” 5/5 |

| lol master okushi , 6 ep and kid is already grown up not bad character development |
 |
| When they revealed the cat in the bag, haha Ingenuity is what makes JJBA. Using the stand on his mother to prevent her death was great. Tamami Kobayashi's responding with his parents never believing him. Loved how puzzled Josuke and okuyasu were at the end. |

| One of my favourite Stands so far. I hated this villain so I was laughing my ass off at the end of the episode! |
 |
| Nice focus shift I must say, we also finally got to see his stand in action! Pretty interesting, let's see what happens next! |
 |
| This episode was so frustrating! I couldn't handle how thick in the head Koichi's mom is! Do you just let strangers into your house and trust more than someone you've known all your life at the get go? Ughh. |

Ughh. it's the power of the lock to make the guilt heavier Yeah, but that is while the lock's ability is in effect. I'm talking about inviting the guy in and letting him massage you. If that was my house and I saw a guy who was just tricked my ass in the street massaging my mom, first thing I'd do is get him the hell out. It looked like Koichi was trying to explain the situation, but his mom wasn't listening to him. So it really irritated me. I still really liked the first 5 episodes, ep 6 was alright, but it gave me a headache. |

I still really liked the first 5 episodes, ep 6 was alright, but it gave me a headache. I’d probably do the similar thing as you would. But I agree with the above post that it has something to do with Japanese culture. Those housewives have a lot of free time staying at home alone during daytime, so they welcome the chat with others, even strangers. Therefore, in Japan there’re salesmen trying to sell things to them by going door to door, chatting with them and sometimes even flattering them. |

| Platy! What a cute stand I know anime parents are stupid But not trusting your own child is more stupid than that Well at least she did in the end But sometimes learn how to trust your child more than stranger |
"Signature removed"   |
| Aw yeah nice seeing Koichi's Stand awaken and give that stupid shit what was coming to him |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Koichi's stand is interesting lol makes him go super saiyan. It's a good thing he can finally do something himself. |
 |
| Koichi figured out his stand and lmao he made that guy his slave XD |
 |
| nice that Koichi is a super saiyan that uses Cell as his stand |
| I can't help but think of Aoki from Hajime no Ippo every time Okuyasu talks lol. Hobgoblin2099 said: And so Koichi's Stand, Imperfect Cell, finally hatched. Hopefully he can find some Androids to absorb soon. Fappa said: Aside from the hair Koichi somehow reminded me of Gohan with the whole "I'll never forgive you". Pretty sure Koichi is a homage to Gohan. Ah, that explains why his look this episode reminded me of Teen Gohan xD |
 |
| Funny episode when Koichi resolves all with this swindler cool form!!! |
| Ayeeee he finally got his own stand! |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| What the hell is with this episode, it's like it was written by a mentally challenged person !?! |
| This episode was badass! Josuke casually dispelling everyone's guilt by countering the midget's tricks was hilarious. Koichi turned full Super Saiyan and got a unique stand that fights in a way I think I haven't seen before~ How he made his mother believe in him was touching and clever. I'm loving this ♥ |
 |
| Finally Koichi grew some balls already. I do like his stand. I'm sure it will be useful at a later time. His mom and sister are hot as hell though :) |
| Hey, Koichi's hair got spiky, that totally isn't a reference to a very popular shonen anime. |
