How did that guy hide in a living horse ? Was he there all the time ? How did he even enter inside ?
And why was there suddenly a trap leaving into a maze, in a random stupid tunnel ? Did they bother building all that just for an ambush ?

This gets more ridiculous the further it goes lol. At least it doesn't make me cringe (yet).
Sadly, I'm not too keen on the "rule of cool", but as long as it remains entertaining I'll continue watching I guess.

not as funny as the last three episodes. and most of it was spent on the 'Hamon' which is basically Ki of this universe. Still not seeing where Stands come in though...

And it appears Speedwagon is the most normal character (or at least male) in the series and this is the guy who had a spinning top hat as a weapon!

An episode long training arc lol. Decent episode but it felt anticlimactic how Jojo defeated Jack the Ripper so easily.

Erina is back and looking as pretty as ever. Speedwagon had to withdraw the bromance card but he was willing to stay by Jojo's side.

William Anthonio Zeppeli is a fucking gent. Eating a sandwich while Hamon/Ripple-ing Jojo and a frog on a rock. Shedding manly tears as he recalled his father. Teaching Jojo how to harness his Ripple power in a lake while wearing his impeccable white suit.

This series has an animal abuse fetish. I don't mind all the people dying but roasting Danny, having a cat eat a puppy and now decapitated horses. It's softcore animal abuse porn. Ew.

Zeppeli is so fucking badass that he didn't need to open that wine bottle like a normal person, he fingered the base and poured himself a glass.

Jojo is awesome for killing a zombie without spilling a single drop of wine.

Goddamnit Dio is still alive and he's got a new minion which is Jack the Ripper (kinda reminded me of Kuroshitsuji) and Dio turned him into a zombie.

Meanwhile, Jojo is A-OK and aww Erina has been taking care of him, then they met Led Zeppelin. Hahaha! And he gave Jojo a power of Hamon then trained him. Apparently, Mr. Zeppelin was the one who unearthed the mask from an expedition, and its first victim since he unearthed it was his father who killed his 58 crews, and he's the only survivor.

I came here to post this almost word-for-word. I can't take this show seriously, but I don't think I'm supposed to either. It's certainly entertaining. xD

Eh, it's really awkward how every character screams out every detail, the animation isn't good at all...so far not so good, but I can guess that it gets better.

Based on the Jojo and Tsubasa animated adaptations of David Pro, I learned to not expect most scenes to be actually animated. But I admit it is partially due, in Jojo's case at the very least, to its manga that lacks any dynamism thanks to the very stiff instants the pictures focus on. (the further you go in the comic, the more stiff it looks, but the more detailed/well drawn it too)

This ep went from 2 couple meeting one another to them meeting a classy gentleman with weird powers, to learning the power of hamon energy to fighting J=zombiefied Jack the ripper by punching a wall and I absolutely love it!

Also, Speedwagon is such a cool dude to be with.

Dio made Jack the Ripper a zombie meanwhile Jojo gets special training. He ends up beating him effortlessly. Glad Jojo and Erina met each other again.

I feel the exact same way. The design of the show is great, but the animation carried out is poorly executed. I know the body designs are overly complex, but the animation studio has made it painfully obvious how much they struggled to execute some of these action scenes.

And yeah, I've mentioned the same thing several times. It kills me how Speedwagon has to spell out the entire scenario for the watcher as if we're all confused eight-year-old children. And too much dialogue takes place in midair.

I, for one, despise the uninteresting, cliche, action-based dialogue -- and the illogical, impossible, overly convenient feats the characters perform.

Nevertheless, I'd give the show ONE exception -- that being if the show were attempting to come off as somewhat of a parody. Kinda like how KonoSuba parodies the RPG genre. I could actually find appreciation in this series if the over-the-top cheesiness was deliberate. In some cases, I think it is, which is what adds to the beloved charm ... but I think in many instances, the show is unironic with its over-exaggerated-ness.

Okay but how did Baron Zeppeli know who Jonathan and Erina were? How does he know who Dio is??? Hasn't it only been a week since Dio escaped?

Also, now I’m craving sandwiches with a dash of salt and pepper…

Everything is so over-the-top, but still have its charm.

Jojo finally meet Edina again, but he already had to go away. Dio is back, he returned soon than I expected. At least Jojo now has a new power to fight against him.

Speedwagon is such an amazing, supportive character.
And the Erina l is back, possibly romance?
And damn, DIO HAS SOME AMAZING POWERS.
Zeppeli is such a weird character but he saved Jojo.
The dialogues are pretty overdramatic ''I LIFTED A STONE, HOW IS THAT POSSBILE?''
Is this the ''stand'' that everyone is talking about... amazing or it's just the Ripple.
Well he managed to master it somehow, animation was sick for it.

As much as I am disappointed in the character design and the voice acting here, I'm not gonna lie that the series has been really enjoyable so far. Zeppeli is here, and my man is gonna start to bring blessings for our JoJo. Speedwagon is still Speedwagon, cool and caring as ever. And ayo JoJo and Erina's scene is actually warm and fuzzy, that will be a rare sight in the whole series.

Anyways, the Hamon has created a new warrior, and that warrior will now exact revenge on an ever-terrifying Dio plus his lackeys. Things are now starting to look up!

Zeppeli is here and looks like he's here to teach Jonathan about the things that he needs to learn in order to defeat Dio. Dio is alive as expected. Can't take the ED seriously because of my brain. LOL

Well the introduction from the teacher was weird, and sudden, in terms of the character interaction, it didn't feel natural, however the explanation for the breathing technique was interesting .

Seems to be a training arc. Not as interesting as the first three but this is likely setup for future episodes. Hopefully it picks up.
