What I really like about Part 5 is just the Mafia touch to it and trying to get higher on the power ladder, to eventually become the Mafia Boss.
But what other things do I like or not like about Part 5?
Let's look at that right now.
So grab a drink or some snacks and have some fun reading this review! :)
Story 8,5/10:
The story begins with our new Jojo (or GioGio) getting introduced.
His name is Giorno Giovanna.
He is a 15 year old boy who works as a small scammer for some parts of the mafia. His biggest dream is to become a gangster since his childhood. When he was a kid, he saved a gangster and in return the gangster protected him from his abusive step-father, his bullies and made his life a lot better.
As I mentioned, it was his step-father who was abusive.
So now you ask: "So who is his real father?"
His real father is DIO (Brando).
Well that aside, when Giorno fatally injures a member of the mafia, he is interrogated and questioned by Bruno Bucciarati, also part of the mafia.
They have a big fight and in the end, Giorno spares him as he sees, that Bruno is a good guy, becuase Bruno hesitated as he saw the arm of a kid which where drugs were used on.
So Giornos plan is to join Bucciarati's gang and take the power from the boss, to stop drugs from getting selled to kids.
The story progresses much more and better the longer the story goes and is definetely one of the most interesting and unique.
I think that Part 5's story does need a bit more depth in it, but generally it is really great!
Pacing 9/10:
I don't know how other people saw the pacing in Part 5, but I think the pacing in Part 5 is pretty good.
There are no unnecesarry Episodes and all of them are really interesting to watch. Of course, the 39 Episodes might be a bit exhausting for some people, but the good quality of the show makes up for that.
Characters 9,5/10:
I always admire characters in Jojo and the longer the series goes, the better the characters get.
Giorno Giovanna, a Jojo that isn't really considered interesting or relatable, but his way of dealing with drug selling and his 50/50 way of being DIO and Jonathan is just great. I think that Giorno is really overhated when it comes to his character.
The gang with Bucciarati, Narancia, Abbacchio, Mista and Fugo also all have an emotional, great and interesting story and great design.
And even the villains have absolutely great design.
Risotto Nero, Cioccolatta, Ghiaccio, and don't get me started with the boss!
I heard people saying the boss isn't really an interesting character or that he is boring, I find the excact opposite!
The boss has a very interesting personality, character, backstory and just his Stand is one of the best things I have ever seen.
Music 9,9/10:
Again, as in Part 4, the soundtrack of Golden Wind is just magnificent and beautiful.
Giorno's theme is a fucking masterpiece, the boss' theme is great, Risotto Nero's theme absolutely astonishing and even side OST's are really, really great.
It still can't get to Part 2 level in my opinion sadly.
Animation 9/10:
The animation gets better and better the longer the series goes. David Production really is learning more and more and it is great to see.
The fights, the effects, the best scenes are all greatly animated and are just beautiful.
And as always, in the last episodes, the animation was at it's peak.
Art 10/10:
Nah but really, the art style of Golden Wind is just beautiful and just really nice.
David Production yet again adapted it perfectly and I just can't express as much love to them but this part of the review.
Definetely the peak of Jojo's (Anime) art!
Fights 10/10:
Come on, tell me one fight in Part 5, that isn't good?
There isn't a single one which isn't interesting, enjoying and hooking to watch.
And Risotto vs. Doppio is the best non-final fight from Part 1-6 in my opinion.
The fights also peak here.
Enjoyment 10/10:
Yeah but no, there is nothing I can say, but that Golden Wind is so enjoying to watch.
You have humour, great fights, hooking and emotional scenes and great characters.
There is nothing you can ask more for.
Part 5's Anime is just so enjoying to watch!
Overall 9,5/10:
As I am rewatching the series currently and thinking about my rating for Golden Wind for a second again, I come to the conclusion that I think it is as good as Part 4 and the Second Season of Part 3.
The whole Part is just great to watch and is a treat for people who really enjoy Jojo's and battle shounen in general.
The characters, the soundrack, the sound effects, the voice acting, the animation, the story, I could name more things, but Part 5 is just one of the best Anime seasons ever created.
