Nice episode, got what I had expected with the action. I really liked Josuke and Koichi's chemistry and I think they adapted Bad Company pretty well along with Keicho this episode.

Bet the VA had a lot of fun with this episode as well. A battle of strategies...quite exciting.

Really glad to see that Koichi survived and also got a Stand....Looks like it might be pretty powerful too so I can't wait to see what it is

I'm proud of Okuyasu for doing what he did as well and even though his brother's Stand is pretty interesting, the dude is a complete dumbass lol

I was saying to myself while watching this episode "Why aren't these weapons healing and like being used against this guy lol and did arrow boy over here forget about that too lol"

I couldn't stop laughing after seeing that Josuke played his ass from the get go and then REKT him for being a moron xD

Worse Company, couldn't help but lol when I saw the changed name. Another great fight and really loved the scene where Josuke was climbing the stairs all silently on alert and then Okuyasu just starts shouting out of nowhere lol.

I wonder if they're gonna fit part of the next mini-arc/fight in the next episode after the Nijumura Bros stuff is over.

The fight against Bad Company was really intense and cool. As expected of JoJo. I loved how Josuke defeated Keicho by fixing his own missiles and used it against him. It seems the battle is not over yet, as the title of the next episode suggests the conclussion of the duel.

Koichi's Egg Stand looks interesting, I wonder how will look after hatching. Okuyashu is an idiot, but also, a bro. Loving him already.

Greato adaptation, I thought they'd forget about those scenes with Josuke and Okuyasu. Keicho's VA was great.

3 episodes for 10 chapters. Next episode should cover the finale + the Akira cameo, and they'll either add some filler or start with Koichi's debut.

Oh I loved the flimsy film like effect that transitioned into a change of colors.

Really enjoyed this episode and I just can wonder what is in this egg. It's JoJo so I don't expect any kind of dragon.

Here in Brazil we also keep the original names.
Sorry for you.

I'm curious about Kuichi's stand, since I'm in the anime-only fandom side.

kek, it would be even funnier if someone unironically refers to the stands by these stupid names.
Koichi's egg stand, oh boy.
This episode showcases one of the main tactics used by Josuke to overcome his opponents, anything Crazy Diamond touches can be re-fixed at any time and sent back at to it's owner at an incredible speed.

Bad Company was weird.

I love the style of exposition in this series. It doesn't just explain stuff; it reinforces the cocky personas of the characters.

Another fun episode.

Awesome adaptation of Bad Company (or "Worse Company" from the CR translation :P). It looked great and it was a well developed fight. Can't wait to see what Koichi's stand can really do. I'm really digging Josuke as the MC of Part 4. He's a bit more out there, personable and eccentric like Joseph Joestar (my favorite MC) rather than the completely stoic Jotaro. Interested to see what 'The Nijimura Brothers, Part 3' entails next episode.

Worse Company is such a hilarious name to me, it's hard to be bothered when the characters clearly say the proper names anyway. Enjoyed the episode, some pretty tense moments here. Really looking forward to Koichi's stand, it starting as an egg is really fitting now that I think about it.

Can't they just use Crazy D., B. Company etc.? That should be the best solution I think...

Anyway this was an eggstremely good episode.

Bad Worse Company was great! I honestly thought that they'll rush the arc to finish it by this episode. Glad they didn't! Yeah, I doubt it'll be a 39 episode series though. It might get a second season that's once cour long.

I completely forgot that Koichi's stand was first introduced as an egg. I like that I'm discovering little things with the adaptation that I've forgotten since then. I'm excited to see it in action, it's one of my favorites ability-wise.

The fight against Bad Company was nicely done. I like the tension we felt through the whole episode. It really showed how dangerous the situation for Josuke was.

Great episode. Really adapted the fight well.

I've noticed that Josuke says Gureito Daze a lot. Did he always say that? I don't remember him saying it so much in the manga.

Also lol Worse Company.

Why was Keicho not invited to Josuke's party?

He was bad company.

But seriously, great episode, great fight, great greats from Josuke. Just how it should be.

Man, this adaptation just gets better by the episode. The adapted the fight between Josuke's Crazy Shining Diamond and Keicho's Bad Worse Company beautifully. It's great to see the first colony type Stand animated :-D.

So they are doing the Nijimura arc across 3 episodes after all. With that it looks like we're back to ruling out the 39 episode run out as impossible once again. It cannot be done at DP's current pace + adding in new scenes, and for that I'm thankful. It'd be way too rushed if they tried to do it that way.

There's only three chapters left to adapt in the Nijimura Brothers arc so I'm guessing they'll adapt the next mini arc in the same episode or at least start it.
