Well shit...poor Kakyoin


Pretty fun episode still with the baseball gimmick this episode. Loved the home hit run though that surprised Telence. The games were highly entertaining though, loved it a lot especially with the momentum.

Poor Kakyoin have been deceived by Telence's plan. Everything went just as he planned from the beginning.

Not sure if Jotaro is reckless or just overly confident. How the hell he learned to bat just by swinging it a couple of times? That was quite a surprising lead!

Looks like Telence has begun his counterattack as well. Wonder what's the secret power of his Stand. Mind reading is a definite possibility.

Decent episode. That menacing Jotaro at the end though.. So bold and badass!

I thought they were going to finish D'arby's part in this episode since only 7 episodes are left now.

So 6.5 episodes now for Ice n Dio
How will they finish such a huge amount in such a small time I wonder...

D'arby has more chapters than Ice


D'arby's 11 chapters going to take 2.5 episodes
leaving only 6.5 episodes for:
Ice's 8 chaps
Suzie Q's visit
and that massive 18 chapters of Dio's world
also the last chapter

Not saying it's impossible. Actually pretty much interested to see how DP will pull off this :D

Ice's fight is pretty short actually, so it should take the next 3 episodes with Suzie Q's visit. Then DIO will take the last 4 episodes

Dio's fight with Jotaro should at least take 3 episodes. I have no idea how they are going to fit all this into the next 7 episodes.

Has there ever been any source on how many episodes the second half will have, though? Some sites like HB list 25, while most users assume it's 24 because that's the same amount of episodes that the first half had, but has there ever been any official confirmation on either end?

I don't see the problem with the remaining chapters.

D'arby has 11 chapters.
Vanilla Ice has 8 chapters.
DIO's World has 18.

They have done 8.5-9 chapters in 2 episodes (D'arby the gamer 1 was done in the last bit of Petshop), which is about 4.5 chapters per episode. We have 1.5 chapters of D'arby left, which will be done in the next episode, alongside Vanilla Ice 1 (maybe 2 as well), which leaves us with 6-7 chapters left for Vanilla Ice.

At the speed we're going (4-4.5 chapters per episode), they can cover both Vanilla Ice and Suzy's Q visit in episode 19 and 20 (MAYBE add in DIO's world 1), that leaves us with 18 chapters (17 of Dio+The end) in 4 episodes (21,22,23,24).

Seems a pretty good deal if you ask me. I mean, the fight is not D4C tier long (15 chapters of 30-40 pages), so I think they can manage.

Well I've gotten over the shock of them playing video games for their souls, because the image of an entire baseball team of star paltinums has completely broken the "I can't believe this is happening" meter in my brain.

That said, this is easily one of my favorite episodes of all time. The tension and mind games were great, the music and animation were especially good for an episode where everybody is mostly sitting down and talking, and Joseph has turned 100% into Speedwagon. The scene of him berating Jotaro for not knowing how to play video games is probably my favorite in the entire series now.

I'm just a little upset that I have to wait another week for what's looking to be an amazing conclusion, but at leased I'll also get to finally see COOL ICE. That's his name and I won't let anyone tell me otherwise.

LOL @ "Cool Ice."

Great episode. Joseph was so disappointed in Jotaro. How has he not played a video game before? He's a teenager! Too busy beating people up?

You know we're getting near the end when it's going to take nearly three episodes to wrap up one fight with a Stand user. Getting hype in here...

Holy Christ fuck! Someone hold me, I don't know what is happening anymore!!
Shit getting crazy, so crazy that even Joseph have run out of commentary!

I see three possibilities : either Joseph use the same tactic he used against the other d'Arby, either he start cheated and get away with it, or he understood how his stand work (while I still haven't). Maybe all at the same time?

About d'Arby stand, I just can't understand how it work. But there was that weird scene, where his stand was looking at Jotaro while he was seeing the baseball game with the other eye. Maybe he really can see through Jotaro eyes. Or maybe by analysing Jotaro mimics, he can guess where he's gonna throw it? Man, all that psychological war make want MOAAAR!!

Good adaptation to what I still view to be a very mediocre fight by JoJo standards, all that's left is the reveal of how Atum's power works (aka the best part of the fight)! Thankfully that shouldn't take up too much time from the Spirit of Emptiness fight, but I am getting more concerned about how they'll adapt Dio's World with each passing episode :-/.

For those who are wondering about Atum's power and want to feel like a detective for the rest of the week, I will say it is possible to figure out how it works by thinking about what happened in this episode. When I first read the Manga, I was able to work it out without too much hassle. Have fun speculating ;-).

I'd be kind of bummed out with this honestly... I went back and re-read Vanilla Ice and I've been hoping the end of the Vanilla Ice part would be the end of an episode, it'd be so perfect.
