it has a grindhouse kinda feel to it, where it takes place in Mexico, and the leads train in this martial arts compound.

it also has a cartel, demons, a Shaft-like character ("how do you say "police" in Mexican?"), and a grainy kinda filter

Watched all 8 episodes back to back and it was pretty much everything I hoped it would be. Hope it gets a season 2.

6 hands? Does that refer to the martial arts or is it some sort of occult phrase?

It's basically a Mexican supernatural martial arts series.

We are officially at the point where anime is the style of the animation and not where it's made huh? Ether that or Austen Texas is now part of Japan.

Joking aside first Castlevania and now this show Powerhouse animation is a company I will be keeping my eyes on.

Far as I can tell it's just a reference to the 3 protagonists and they all possess both of their hands, so 2 hands x 3 protagonists = 6 hands. Doesn't have any other specific reference that I can think of otherwise. Maybe it just sounds catchy or something idfk.

Tbh I'm not really all that fussed about the details because all you really need to know is that it's a Mexican Wuxia with supernatural elements animated by the studio behind Castlevania and if that doesn't sound awesome then I don't wanna know you tbh.

Is it like jojo

Having only recently watched Part 1, it's not quite as outright hammy as Jojo, but it has a lot of heart. It's basically a Wuxia that takes place in Mexico, and it has supernatural elements and drug cartels. Also as previously mentioned it's the same animation studio behind Netflix Castlevania, so if you liked that series then you'll probably also like this.

You should continue Jojo. Its a great series and also has a season dedicated to gangs and mafia too.

I am, I am! Only thing I'm trying to decide on is if I should watch part 3 dubbed or subbed. On the one hand, Matt Mercer, on the other, Old Joseph's hilarious Engrish. This is actually a real dilemma for me, which is more worth?

Yeah, this is a really tough one. Like you mentioned, the sub has all the classic memes like the Engrish (and not just from Joseph, there are some future characters with extremely memorable ones too), Dios wrry (which is slightly important in a future part, not sure why they removed it and how theyll deal with it in the future dub), and memetic laughs that the dub wasnt able to imitate. Also, they fucked up a bit on the BGM of the earlier episodes and the music is much lower than it should be. On the other hand, the dub is seriously good, the VAs all put in a lot of effort and the main characters all have some seriously high quality voiceover. The dub also has the bonus of using the uncensored blu-rays (for the most part) so if youre going by legal methods the sub uses the censored TV version.
Both sides have their pros so Id suggest using the one youve been using for the first two seasons because Dio has the same VA in both. Id personally suggest doing both but you might not have time for that.

Mainly watching dubbed for now because of the hilarious accents (hearing Johnny Yong Bosch try to sound British was the most precious thing). Anything like that in part 3? I might as well go sub since Hulu only has that option if the accents aren't as hilarious as parts 1 and 2.

Due to just how many different nationalities there are in part 3 they decided to scrap the whole thing (including Patrick Seitzs Dio who uses an American one) so there are no accents in part 3.

Boo, not cool. Silly accents are usually my favorite part of English dubs. I'll probably just watch sub then lol.
