----------------------------------------
Damn, the fight is good but I lol'd @ the tears. Gotta say that ACDC is pretty tough this episode. Dem tentacles. Nice action packed episode tbh. The Overdrive part was sick!

The episode was great. THey cut the scene of Lisa Lisa and Jojo in the bistro. In the manga, this was a great scene.

The fight was really good.

Even thou I finished manga part2, I still think that destroying that red stone is a good idea .

This episode's animation seem to be good compare to the last episode, the character actually can move!!!! but the color is a bit artistic,Its not like a bad thing anyway.

AC/DC tentacle play 0.0".... BL doujin gonna profit from here lol

The rope trick is understandable, but doing it seems impossible in that situation xD

He can somehow feel something gone from his throat but he can't somehow feel something is behind his back >_<"
enjoying episode overall 5/5"

A BD bonus episode? I THINK SO!!! Which is awesome. They are saving content for Blu Ray specials I bet. It is the kind of characterful chapter that is perfect for a DVD special imo. If not, we can always insert it in as JoJo fans :D.

Episode was what I imagined the ACDC fight to a tee.

Another excellent fight, definitely not as flashy as his fight with Straights or Wham but Joseph was clever/funny and badass all at the same time as usual. Did not expect ACDC to cry like that and surprised me even more that he crys to calm himself down! How can Joseph not feel a freaking brain on his back though? X D

WTF Why is Stroheim back as it says in the preview!? He freaking blew himself up!

There has not been too much bonus in the volume 1 BD. I do not think so because Lisa Lisa made the explanation of the stone Arja at home and not at the Bistro.

The tentacles from the nails caught me by surprise. I know to expect the unexpected here, but still, that was awesome.
The crying was very reminiscent of 80's anime, where muscle guys do it, like in Sakigake Otokojuku.

It was as I thought. The stone was for them to lose their weakness to the sun.

I never even considered Lisa Lisa to have it. It was actually said everything about her past was unknown. It was a big hint.

The fight was not so good in my opinion. I didn't get any feels.

"Stroheim's counterattack" ..........

As far as I'm concerned after this is when Part II goes from great to amazing.
I really loved the fight, although not my favorite of part II they did a great job of it.

Quick pacing. Can't believe Jojo's already fought ACDC. There's no way he couldn't have noticed that on his back!

I didn't expect Lisa Lisa to just show them the Super Aja stone, I thought it would be locked away somewhere else.

Hopefully that brain on his back doesn't screw him over too bad, but I still think JoJo's going to suffer the same fate as his grandfather did at the end of the last story arc, dying when just about everything's been settled. I haven't read the manga, btw.

I'm starting to like the great mix between clearly wired dialogue, strategic commentaries, and epic battle scenes. Jojo's got an even bigger boost now that it's finally reaching the juicy contents.

I felt that the animation in this episode was really atrocious, specially early on.

But, as soon as ACDC started crying, things were more enjoyable. It was delightfully over the top.

Probably my favorite episode so far. Loved it!

I was kinda expecting them to drag the fight out for the next episode, but this was just perfect. Glad to see how well Jojo's ripple has been trained to this point, and the batshit insane fights are just priceless and epic at the same time. Who would have thought ACDC would have cried his guts out for losing an arm? LOL. Joseph was a total badass! Seeing ACDC just barely "living" by clenching to Jojo's back, I guess he has something else planned up his...erm mind(?). He shall not get far!

When it comes to Ceasar, his fight went relatively quick, seeing he is the grandson of Will A. Zeppeli. It was just expected I guess! Dat love and concern for Joseph. Warming.

Well seeing the episode preview, I guess we can expect something shit going down and some fan service of Lisa Lisa. I'm not particular big fan of that, but when it comes to Lisa Lisa, I can easily make an exception there. Wryyyy!

Now that escalated quickly! Fight was so so...but at the end I knew, that, something is just wrong to finish the episode with good scheme lol.

"WTF Why is Stroheim back as it says in the preview!? He freaking blew himself up!"
I did not read the manga but I think he was used by Santana ( as he was in a body of his ).
Same goes to Dio Brande ( but I would be suprised if he knew about it ).

You never question Ken of Hokuto. Once he declares you are already dead, there is no hope for you.

My picture is a spoiler like Snape/Aeris dies is a spoiler.

Talking about probably one of the most awesome events in part 2 that hardly anyone outside of the JoJo community knows, is a spoiler.

Part 3, or rather Dio and his Stand, is like the only thing that most people outside the fandom know about Jojo, it's hard to consider that a spoiler.

Short fight but it was okay. I'm glad that they decide to use back the previous version of Roundabout for the ED, I like that one more than the other parts.

Didn't expect ACDC to lose like that considering this creatures are supposed to be highly above the other vampires turned by masks.
This Jojo must really be highly above his ancestor.

One thing that troubled me was the surprised ACDC at the laser the red stone threw. So does that mean that this super immortals actually can't shoot that laser beam thing human vampires turned by the mask can? I didn't saw the use it in their fight ether so maybe the can't. Does it also mean that humans turned by the mask have their eyes become something similar like that stone?

Just for clarification, it's not acid they shoot from their eyes, it's a highly pressurized jet stream of liquid (it's not clarified if it's actually blood or acid).
