I'm struggling to get into Stardust Crusaders. Does it get better?
Part 1 and 2 were really good. Love Jonathan, love Joseph, Speedwagon & Caesar are the greatest brojos in existence and fuck DIO. Hell, I even found rooting for a Nazi of all things. But aside from the intro, I just don't feel it. I'm excited for more Dio, but the complete switch from Hamon to Stands was jarring and quite anticlimactic and the villain of the week format is kinda annoying. Part 3 is long as fuck, so I wanna know if it's really worth it or can I skip forward a bit (and if so, how far).
you can fast forward to the Dio fight, or go straight to part 4 and comeback

>Does it get better? yes
Hunter Anderson
nobody cares about jojo anymore except two trannies , u fell for the meme retard
Eli Williams
part 3 is long as an anime. maybe you could switch to manga or something, it has 3 good fights total

>Hell, I even found rooting for a Nazi of all things. you smell like reddit

watch first 2-3 episodes and last 3. and if you like it, all in the between is just monster of the week kind of crap (some are good tho).
Joseph Cox
Honestly Part 3 is the best part but I don't expect knuckle dragging retards of Yas Forums to understand that, just skip it and go watch something else.
Cameron Hall
skip to Part 7

I long for the day tranny and trannies get censored. Maybe to something nice like chad or gentleman.

Just drop the anime and read the manga. Stardust Crusaders' manga is shorter than both part 4 and part 5 and somehow they managed to make it the longest anime adaptation by far, meaning that short, fun fights that go by in three or so chapters get stretched to 40 minutes of anime.
Jason Ward
Caesar is the epitome of a chad treats women like shit but they still go crazy for him and i would go gay for him
Anthony Lewis
that's why he got crushed vhads cab go to hell

We should call a spade a spade.

That's not what this word is for here though. I'm sure if we compared the amount of actual transgender people on this website to the amount of people who are on the receiving end of the insult, we'd see that 99,9% of the people who get called trannies are cisgender. It's an insult specifically designed for lazy ad hominems. Allowing it does nothing except perpetuate low quality posting. Which is why I believe that one word for a vegetable chock full of protein got banned.
William Rivera
ok faggot, better?
Adrian Thomas
Yeah, that word too. Thanks for pointing it out.
Gabriel Rodriguez
It can feel like a real drag but part 3 doesn't get good really until the second half when they near/hit egypt. Starts actually picking up around Death 13 which I'd consider the first actually well handled stand with no asspulsl or really glaring plotholes. (still had some but considering some of the shit that comes before, it's forgiveable).
Asher Cruz
Try harder, fatty. I'm sure you are having fun right now, but I'm gonna ruin it.
Matthew Cook
What is "fun"? Sounds offensive, someone should censor that word too.

Part 2 is the peak. From Part 3 onwards it gets worse and worse, or maybe it stays the same as part 3 but recycles the same old shit again and again. Got troubles finishing 4. Part 5 was unbearable to me. Jojo doesn't have any meaningful characters with actual themes. Every character just has sone BIZZARE quirk instead of a personality. That's why it's difficult to be interested for more than several episodes. And I think Araki TRULY believes that he's a master of fighting scenarios, because he spends so much time on fights. But his fights are total shit ALWAYS solved through tricks and ass-pulls. If anything, I think he should devote more of screen-time to bizzare slice of life, like the beginning of any jojo part. I always like the first episodes/chapters where there are no stupid fights, just bizzare events happening in protagonist's life. But then it always falls apart.
I'd agree if his entire stand wasn't wasted on shit fights. At one point they could just kill the stand user that's right next to them but instead they toy around with his stand and a bunch of Indians.
Nolan Perez
Should've started with Part 3 and leave those backstory arcs for later. They really do not have much to do with the later arcs since the thread that ties them together is stands. They are good for explaining somethings later on.
Ayden Perry
What you think Polnareff and Kakyoin should've just blasted away the beggars?
Ryder Long
If anything my biggest gripe with that fight is that he doesn't carry around mirrors to protect himself

>Jojo doesn't have any meaningful characters with actual themes. Every character just has sone BIZZARE quirk instead of a personality. They don't even need to be ''deep'' characters, just entertaining, the series is wacky as hell but as time goes on he tries to ''ground'' the characters half-assedly and most of them just come off as boring and their only characterization is either the quirks or generic sob story (and then he forcibly kills them off for cheap drama). >I always like the first episodes/chapters where there are no stupid fights, just bizzare events happening in protagonist's life. But then it always falls apart. This. I don't know if that's mainly due to editor pressure for these wsj magazines or Araki's general incompetence or both. I think there's more effective ways to weave stands into these bizarre scenarios than turning it into typical shounen battles, some of the best episodes are when the stand usage is limited, like the restaurant in part 4 etc.
