| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Finally, the damn sun rises. Pretty good soundtrack this episode imo. Loved Jojo's determination inside that plane tbh. Dat aerial fight and piranhas. Good episode and holy shit, aerial dive against Cars. Nice. BOOM. Should be a good finale next week. I'm looking forward to how the fight will conclude. |
 |
| The ultime life form is here. The conclusion for the next week. |
| F***ING PIRANHAS. Great budget this episode. Oh, and the announcement was just about the release of the Bluray... |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |

LOL at the pictorial explanation about the "Ultimate Life Form" . |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| That was great, although I missed the narrator telling us how "Sex: Useless". I also liked the sound effects they used in the opening. |

| The OST has a lot of wasted potential. I can understand why Iwasaki was mad. |

No, I just expected some kind of over-the-top narration, spanning several minutes to narrate us everything on the spread. "IQ 400! SEX: USELESS! THE ULTIMATE BEING ONLY NEEDS TO ACHIEVE THE FINAL VICTORY", etc. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
Nidhoeggr said: Ah, I see. Yeah, agreed. I basically thought "huh? that's it?", could have been a little more elaborate though I guess that means they may have to cut the action, so I'm okay with it the way it is I guess. BD extras perhaps?No, I just expected some kind of over-the-top narration, spanning several minutes to narrate us everything on the spread. "IQ 400! SEX: USELESS!

And I just loved this scene. |

| Still bugs me why they added all those sound effects in the OP.... |

| Holy Production Values JoJo! The artwork and animation this week was just on another level than usual. We even got some new dubstep tracks! The god Cars had so many vogue poses this week it was crazy. What a final battle with crazy piranha, German Airplanes, Explosions, Killer Squirrels. JoJo's plan to kill him with a volcano I have to say was really creative. I was worried he'd get some power up but nope JoJo is still using his wits to take Cars out! BROHEIM FTW and an epic cliffhanger XD I'm not ready for this show to end |

| ^ Precisely. Another thing: Isn't Cars supposed to love animals? When he created another squirrel which just devours a real one. Isn't it out of character for him to do so? Is it the same in the manga? |

| It's been a while since I read BT, but I'm sure the squirrel scene was exactly like that in the manga as well. Anyway, that's Jojo logic. Nobody takes the plot serious. |

Nidhoeggr said: It is not logic here, but characterization. Remember how we joked about JoJo playing parnk against a cat while the very evil Cars saved a dog from a car driven by despicable drunkard? Now that joke just loses the meaning.It's been a while since I read BT, but I'm sure the squirrel scene was exactly like that in the manga as well. Anyway, that's Jojo logic.

Demonspeed said: But that is no real squirrel. It is still part of his body and he can change it into something else just as he pleases to take advantage of that animal's characteristics...And anyway he can create squirrels now. |

KodomoRinku said: Awesome episode. Just one question: How the hell did Stroheim get on that plane? Because German technology is Sekai ichi XDXDXD |
 |
| Lol Stroheim he is the hero. |
| Stroheim... Nuff said. BTW, I think dubstep suits Battle Tendency well. |
| The big brown fox jumps over the lazy dog |
| One hell of episode. Strohiem saves the day. Last episode next week, I surely hope we get a sneak peek at Part 3. |
 |
symbv said: Still bugs me why they added all those sound effects in the OP.... I actually kind of liked it. I would not have liked the sound effects for every episode, though. An okay episode. Not really a favorite fight of mine and I just don't really care about Cars, I find him pretty dull. Thankfully, Jojo and Stroheim made up for it a bit. |

| Guys, the squirrel scene isn't decharacterization. Cars always showed respect for nature because he couldn't tame it, it was above him, it was the only thing that Cars judged stronger than him. By getting the Red Stone of Asia and surpassing his weakness, he can now control the nature. He's above it now, that's why there's the squirrel scene, it's to show Cars's true personality, as now he can control even the nature, he doesn't have to respect it anymore, he's the strongest. Cars is that kind of man. |
| Bloody amazing ep! Loved the added sound effects in the OP, it makes me think that the stakes are high everything is getting cranked to 11! Cars was insane with his new powers, I really felt the struggle to survive from both warriors. The colours were psychedelic and the dubstep music was going crazy. I thought this episode's presentation was sky high brilliant too. Extremely excited to see how it all ends next week. |

| I'm sorry but, I did not like any of the music in this episode it felt so out of place. |
 |
| One word. Epic. |
 |
| OST was outta control, loved it. |
|
This episode is really something quite special, it certainly lives up to the bizarre adventure part of the title. Things are going to be heading towards the big finish next episode, I can't wait to see ridiculous it is when animated :D. Regarding the sound effects in the opening and the soundtrack for this episode: The sound effects in the OP were awful; I could see what they were trying to achieve, but they overplayed it too much. The music itself I liked though, which is surprising considering I generally HATE dubstep based songs. |

| MY CAPSLOCK CAN'T LOCK HARD ENOUGH FOR THIS SERIES! |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |

| EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC Stroheim "parachute" was so cool saving our hero. Fucking Bro. At the beginning the music was a bit more noisy than usual, wish they used other epic tracks, not saying it was bad but it couldv been better. |
 |
| That was Epic. Stroheim hero of the day. |
