| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Intense episode, loved it. Highway Star may look strange but not to be underestimated. Really liked the thrill of the episode when it was hunting Josuke on the road. Funny how Kouchi trolled that pharmacist. Josuke is pretty badass with the motorcycle this episode imo. GG Yu |

| Let's kill da ho BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECH |
| They didn't fix the manga scene where Josuke throws away the broken phone and steals another one instead of just fixing it hahahaha We got to see a lot of episodes without much quality problems, I hope they don't appear in the next one, the cat arc is one of the best |

Z_Tetriminos said: They didn't fix the manga scene where Josuke throws away the broken phone and steals another one instead of just fixing it hahahaha Holy crap, I never even realized that obvious plothole. Guess David didn't either. But man, I was wondering who Fungami's voice actor was, and at the exact moment he said "Highway Star has your scent!" in his hospital room, he sounded 100% like Kittan from TTGL. Instantly checked it, and it WAS the same voice. My evening was made. |
| If anyone still doesn't think that Josuke, Koichi, and Rohan are the best after this episode, I don't know what to tell you.

Guess David didn't either. It's a joke, not a plothole. Josuke forgets to heal Koichi after he's been punched through a door and also has to be told by Jotaro to fix his hand after he got shot by Ratt. |
| What a beautiful episode! I love the way they used the OST in this episode. Koichi has matured a lot lol. The beatdown at the end felt kind of underwhelming, though. And finally, we'll get to see more Kira. |
| One of the better episodes that's for sure. |
 |
| He really didn't think about fixing the phone? lol This episode just made me remember why i love Crazy Diamond so much, 5/5. |

Drake1000 said: This episode felt somewhat rushed to me, I remember highway star feeling longer in the manga and much more intense and suspenseful. I find it quite interesting that Josuke was attacked by an already injured person in the hospital only for him to fix him and beat him up again. Koichi has a very good stand, the fact that he can use all 3 acts is OP. I think this story was a perfect spot for Araki to slip a Josuke hair insult by the High Way star guy. Nice the Cat who loved Kira next, another Kira centered story is always what's best.

Also Kira's dad can fly without a bird now. This episode played just like in the manga, actually. It was ultimately a good choice to make the previous one the beginning of the arc. But I guess it has a lot more impact to read and see pages with amazing scenes like the bike being destroyed and repaired. Also, Josuke can repair things like he wants, just like he repaired that dude's nose in the beginning of the anime and with his avant-garde project "Angelo Stone". |
| That was an great episode.They didn't skip the funny moment with the cellphones.The chase was great and that beating at the end was satisfying.And we saw the beginning of the Stray cat arc.Not really hyped for this,but I believe David won't disappoint nonetheless. |

| 10 more episode for like 4 more arc? |
Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
GangsterCat said: 10 more episode for like 4 more arc? 5 arcs, actually. |
| For some reason I felt like the pacing of the first half of the episode was a bit off. Didn't feel as high intensity as it did in the manga. And this is despite the fact that the anime actually adapted most panels perfectly. I think it's probably because not too much animation was devoted to the actual bike movement. David Pro is really good at animating individual panels, but they've never really been good at actually showing fluid motion. Second half of the episode was perfect though. "LETS KILL DA HO! BEEEEEETCH" "Now that I've healed you up, it's a fair fight, right? " |

| everyone here is loving this arc and here i am otherwise (anime watcher, never read the manga) since that highway go go stand is just way too powerful seriously, this stand could beat anyone in part 3 |
Oniikami said: everyone here is loving this arc and here i am otherwise (anime watcher, never read the manga) since that highway go go stand is just way too powerful seriously, this stand could beat anyone in part 3 Highway star is not really that powerful. You have to see how are the stands from part 5 and 6. Also, What is wrong with it being powerful? |
Oniikami said: everyone here is loving this arc and here i am otherwise (anime watcher, never read the manga) since that highway go go stand is just way too powerful seriously, this stand could beat anyone in part 3 "3) it can also morph a tunnel to trap others" Actually, this is the only way for it to work. Highway Star only tracks someone by the smell after trapping him in the room. That was the whole point of Rohan trying to avoid that Josuke entered the room. |
| Awesome episode! Josuke is a freaking badass XD |
  |
| Last ten episodes. It is very sad. :( |
| I think DP did a good job animating the arc. Can't believe there's only ten episodes left to go. |
 |
| Oh god the credits worry me A LOT. 3 action animation directors, 11 animation directors, 3 mecha animation directors, assistants for most of these as well. This is a production hell and with 10 episodes left on top of that. I wouldn't be surprised if we either get a drop in quality or a recap episode tho I pray it won't come to that. |
EXFalchion said: ??? why didn't crazy diamond fix the broken phone??? Just take it as a joke. It was the follow-up of the gag that Josuke screwed up someone's important call. |
| I'm glad I'm not the only one who wondered why Josuke didn't just fix the first cell phone with his Stand. I liked this episode, it was really intense, but also pretty funny. "Let's kill da ho. BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETCH!!" That was golden. I also found it hilarious how Josuke just rode into the elevator on a motorcycle. He didn't really have a choice but I thought that was really funny. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| People talking about the plot hole about Josuke throwing away a broken phone instead of fixing it. Did anyone not notice the fact that Josuke drove a motorcycle straight into a hospital and hasn't been caught/arrested? Pretty sure there'd be serious charges for that if it were real life. (Then again, this is Jojo we're talking about.) Great episode arc nonetheless, I enjoyed it as much as the manga version. |
GangsterCat said: 10 more episode for like 4 more arc? They can do it. 1 episode for cat 1 episode and half for the Tower 1 episode and half for The boy 1 Episode for CT 5 episodes for the whole AOBTD arc. the final episofe could be the epilogue and maybe the GW teaser. |
| Echoes ACT 3 is the MAN: "Let's kill da ho.... BEEEEEATCCH!" This arc is one of my favorites and the motorcycle repairs are freaking amazing. Thank you, DavidPro you all are the MVP's. |
| the ending was so stupid imo . ruined what could have been a decent arc |
| "Even if it has good reviews, if I don't like it then it is shit" -Some random anime character |
| That nurse was annoying, I liked how Koichi treated her, she deserved it. I feel bad about those guys who got their phones robbed by Josuke. Rohan and Josuke will never get along,lol. |

Mezo-RPWPA said: the ending was so stupid imo . ruined what could have been a decent arc How is it bad?It sets up the next arc with the 2 important characters of it |
| well . he just threatened the guy not to use his stand but that guy could just use it without letting josuke know about it . so he would still use other people and kills them . so yeah it was really stupid |
| "Even if it has good reviews, if I don't like it then it is shit" -Some random anime character |
| Isn't Koichi supposed to be dead? Didn't Kira kill him for good from like 3-4 episodes? Im really lost here .... |
Mezo-RPWPA said: well . he just threatened the guy not to use his stand but that guy could just use it without letting josuke know about it . so he would still use other people and kills them . so yeah it was really stupid You do realize that the only way he can use his Stand is by luring people into that tunnel, right? Otherwise Highway Star could've sucked up any of the people that passed. There are probably Speedwagon Foundation guys that stake out the area to make sure that doesn't happen. MadSkulz said: Isn't Koichi supposed to be dead? Didn't Kira kill him for good from like 3-4 episodes? Im really lost here .... Josuke healed him before he died in the exact same episode. How did you miss that? EXFalchion said: ??? why didn't crazy diamond fix the broken phone??? It was a setup for a joke. Josuke spends the whole fight using Crazy Diamond's ability to fix things but forgets about it right at that point. |

How did you miss that? I remember Josuke healing Jojo but saying it was too late for Koichi, and then the dead girl's ghost saying she just saw Koichi's ghost go to the afterworld meaning he died for good. Idk maybe my memories are messed up im gonna go rewatch it. |
| Loved this episode, good jop DP! Fuuya's VA fit him to a T. Kira seems to have attracted a Stray, hopefully he and the cat will be able to get along. |
 |
| Always love it when Koichi gets pushed too far. During that and Josuke beating up Yuya I was smiling the entire time. Looks like a certain cat has shown up. |
 |
| Great episode. That chase was thrilling to see. LOL Josuke stealing cellphones. Really like how Josuke makes full use of Crazy Diamond. Highway Star is quite creepy. All those feet chasing you. Don't mess with Koichi. "Let's kill da hoe! BEEEEEEETCH! LOL no chill at all. HAHA Josuke healing Yuya & proceeding to beat the shit out of him again. Well at least he's got his girls. |

"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) |
| What thugs! We got Josuke biking around Morioh stealing peoples phones, and Koichi flaming nurses with absolutely no dignity. This is what stands do to people!! Also I absolutely loved this episode and Yuya was a pretty interesting guy all things considered- kinda bummed we'll never see him again. I can't tell if Josuke is a real good guy or just has an overly guilty conscience...his moral code is wacked out. Heals a guy just to beat the shit out of him bc it's bad to pick on the weak XD Are we gonna be treated to a Kira centric arc next week??...if so I can't wait!!! |
