Why couldn't this part have been good? it had everything going for it in terms of characters, setting, and the plot involving Kira but it got botched into a confusing mess.
Literally the only genuinely memorable arcs always involve Kira; otherwise the only ones I can think off the top of my head are Highway Star, and Rohan before he became an ally and maybe Harvest.
Was there any tangible way part 4 could have been fixed or improved?
Part 4 is plenty of people's favourite part, me included. Although I understand why it might not be something you personally enjoyed. It's a bit of a departure from previous arcs.

This might be a cop-out, but this can only really be answered based on what you value in a Jojo story. It's a boring response but it is what it is. This board is filled with shitposting faggots that refuse to hold a measured, civil debate.
The people on Yas Forums who like Part 4 are a very vocal minority. Most oldfags considered it to be one of the worst parts. It wasn’t until we got Yas Forums crossboarders and Reddit newfaggots that Part 4 started to be liked.
To me, 4 was somewhat of an oddball. I love Josuke and crew but the focus got spread out too much. Not all fillers were bad (RPS Kid is a personal favorite) but a lot of it felt like JoJo's Kooky Town instead of Bizarre Adventure.

Part 4 is extremely popular due to old DUWANG memes alones.
Most oldfags considered 5 and 1 to be the worst parts while 3 and 4 were the most popular until Steel Ball Run came out (which was what actually made JoJo threads more or less regular thanks to scanlations and Shizuka's efforts) and the Part 2 anime dropped which opened the gates to secondary posers like you.
Personally I think you're both wrong. I think it's borderline impossible to gauge what are the least or most popular parts from posts on here because people have such mixed opinions on the topic. There are large groups of people that will never nearly every part is both the best and the worst. I think I have seriously seen someone say every single part is the best at least a couple of times and same with parts being the worst.
To answer your question OP, I don't think it could be fixed for the people that don't like it. Araki's intentions with that part was that for most of it there was no big bad guy and it was just wacky stand adventures in a weird town. The whole premise of it is what the people who don't like it dislike about it. They want more structure and more of a point to the story which for most of it there is none. It's why I personally like Parts 5 and 7 more as far as Stand of the week parts go. I prefer the character's actually having an understood goal and working towards it.
maybe part 4 isnt confusing at all and youre just a fucking moron
>it had everything going for it in terms of setting
Fucking what
How is random japanese town better than literally half the fucking Orient.
>Why couldn't this part have been good?
It was
These Part 4 threads are going to make me start filtering jojo threads, and I'm a fan of the series
