I really want to start reading this part but after trying many times I always find some issues understanding the action panels of Araki.
Do you people have the same problem? Otherwise how can I overcome this? Thank you.

Battle scenes in JoJo are basically insipid gallimaufry of plot conveniences

The whole series is so formulaic that I completed the whole series by just watching the fight scenes on YouTube

I notice that you've read 203 mangas and are reading 50, but you gave none of them more than 6 !!! why do you still read so many mangas if you never well appreciate the medium ?

You just didn't check my whole manga list including the rating system

Check again, I have more than 50 Mangas over 6

Try reading it colored, it gives you better grasp of the scenes.

I see that you've read many mangas so I presume that you only have the problem with JoJo and didn't face this issue with other series
If so, I'd suggest you pick up the parts which you've already watched.
This makes you understand them, but if you still face some issues then I suggest you drop it
If you can't understand them just drop it and pick some other series, nothing wrong in doing that

Thank you for your answer, yes I've already done this method with other mangas but I hesitated with jojo because I've already watched and rewatched many times jojo's anime, I want to move on with new things. 
PS: by reading your reply I presume that you dind't find jojo more harder to read than other mangas , did you ?

Is your issue knowing which order to read the panels in or are you struggling to tell what's going on in each one?

The action scenes the action scenes !!

I'd be lying if I say that I understood every action sequence in a single read. Switching to coloured version really helped me a lot (although I am back to b/w due to poor coloring of part 8)

Personally I think MHA's action scenes are quite hard to follow and One Piece's are relatively easy
JoJo comes somewhere in the middle where sometimes it's pretty easy to understand but sometimes it's quite complex

Isn't that the case with most action-heavy manga, though?

Araki isn't really that good in drawing perspectives and the use of lighting. That's why sometimes it is hard to make out what's happening in black and white.

@Za_Panda Thanks
Now since I have re-watched the entire series twice
I have finally come to conclusion that they don't deserve anything higher than 1/10 just like One Piss.

JoJo is bottom of the barrel trash catered towards the lowest types of individuals on planet Earth. Imagine liking this series, your post was an encouragement to give JoJo the perfect ratings it deserves just like every other Shonen.

I abstained from lowering my ratings due to the end of hype during Part 6 but your existence has revived the deserving contempt against JoJo.

TAKE THAT

"Take that" uh is that supposed to be an epic gotcha moment ?
Was I supposed to feel sad after you rated a series low ?
Anyways good for you that your contempt has been revived, now you can spend even more time spreading the "truth" on mal
