one thing I enjoyed was that its scope was a lot smaller than the others, and there were *very minor spoilers* a bunch of slice-of-life elements going on

In case the OP didn't make it clear, I'm watching Part 4, so beware of spoilers ranging from parts 1 through 3 as well as 4

With that out of the way:

Ep 1

Nothing says slice of life like breakfast

...with a severed hand...? this got real dark real quick

I like jotaro's outfit. And I hear he's present for most of it, so I'm hoping for epic "star platinum! Toke yo tomare" action

Jotaro is a marine scientist!

And that's how this JoJo was introduced

... wait, he's Joseph's kid? So young??

time to cancel Joseph Joestar

I'm getting the vibe that josuke likes his hair. A lot

Koichi can't see stands

Shining Diamond...

Oh, that's his mum

Another stand....

Guess that's the series antagonist

Shit I still need to finish this one. It isn't that I don't like it, I'm just really lazy when it comes to watching anime lately. Also ngl I kinda miss all the burly macho man designs from the first 3 parts.

Ep 2

This Angelo is a real piece of work, huh

I know 1 and a half DiU openings and this ain't one of them. I like it, though the one I know fully is the best one

Josuke is kinda OP so far

Oh! That's a baseball!

Dorararara is a great shout

rip :(

Yeah, Angelo isn't feeling like a series antagonist now. They're dealing with him too quickly

That's a great punishment

What's the ED theme? It's nice imo

I Want You by Savage Garden. It's an even more perfect ED than Roundabout tbh.

Whoa now. Let's not go saying things that we can't take back.

Joking aside, I agree that thematically it's a better fit but that spanish guitar slow roll into the ED will always make Roundabout the best ED in my book.

I didn't like Diamond Is Unbreakable while watching it, but looking back, it became my favorite.

Also, if you like this season, you should chunk out the spinoff, Thus Spoketh Rohan Kishibe. (After the fact, obviously, since it stars a character who you don't meet until halfway through Part 4)

Oh yeah this is true too lol, I loved how it would start up right as an episode was about to end before transitioning to credits. Later seasons feel like the episodes kind of just end and it isn't as satisfying. The Roundabout EDs were definitely better executed regardless of how I feel about the songs.

Hell yeah, Part 4's my favorite part. It does take a bit to get going though, and a couple of the first stand encounters aren't particularly enthralling.

I loved it dude. It was the closest we've got to a Twilight Zone anime. Horror anthology is such an underutilized genre.

Ep 3

It just hit me...the OP isn't 3D anymore :-0

..and Jotaro smiles in it...imposter confirmed

Stand bow and arrow

Is that Josuke's theme that's so banging?

He didn't say Shining Diamond...

Ep 4

I'm getting "you're approaching me?" vibes from that exchange

So josuke is genuinely a really nice guy, from what I can tell. But for some reason I can't like him like I do jotaro and Joseph (yet)

Koichi's okay!

OG name Bad Company?

And he has a stand!?

An egg...

That was a cool resolution. He's pretty creative too

Yeah, I was pretty disappointed by that change. I'm used to it now, of course, but those 3D openings were peak aesthetic.

Yeah. Worse Company is hilarious, though.

In most cases they're just screaming the band name in Engrish so if you listen to the audio you can pick out what the original name is.

Crazy Diamond, and its foil Killer Queen, is perhaps the best parallel power dynamic in all Shonen. And both powers by themselves are crazy awesome too.

Spending the afternoon in home office so I'm watching an episode while taking a dinner break

Ep 5

I figured the arc had ended last ep so I'm interested in seeing how it's extended. I guess they could go into the stand bow and arrow in more detail

Their dad...?

Man, this is tragic

They keep teasing us with Jotaro's time stop

What is it about Jobro's finding joestar mums hot?

Great emotional episode

Work has been finished

Clothes have been changed

Not-beer has been opened

Ep 6

Poor bike

Poor cat

Yeah, this guy definitely kinda Sus

That's an interesting Stand ability

People in JoJo definitely like mums

This would be so much easier if people carried their IDs in their wallets

The stand abilities have been pretty cool so far in this part

Okuyasu's voice sounds really familiar and I just realized why. He sounds a lot like the one guy from Yakuza 0

OK, having it copy his crush is just creepy

Man, Josuke got lucky

I can't wait until part 6 is animated. It's my favorite part.

As for part 4, the way they introduce new stands and build up instead of what some previous ones did where they had some foes they just destroyed right away, it's nice. All the characters have at least one fight against someone who genuinely is a good counterpart and requires some creative way to overcome them. Though, I think everyone can agree how sun was defeated in part 3 was hilarious.

Ep 10

Is this a Slice of Life thing?

I want water that delicious ;_;

Mozzarella is best cheese

Pasta puttanesca?

I feel like josuke is making a big deal over nothing. Sure, he may be a stand user but he hasn't harmed either of them. In fact, he's actively helping them

Pole Jam? OG name Pearl Jam, maybe?

This isn't the Joseph of Stardust Crusaders, I feel...

Yeah, thats the gag lol and why I like that episode. Its framed almost like a horror/thriller like there has to be SOMETHING nefarious in the back because every stand user so far has been up to something, when in reality Tonio just vibin
Also yeah, Pearl Jam

Jotaro's actually a pretty good strategist

It still trips me up when they refer to Joseph as Josuke's father

Look at how they massacred my boy

Cancel Jimi Hendrix

OK, I have to hand it to Josuke. That was smart of him

Can he not recall the Stand?

Joseph can't be that senile, right?

Manga artists have assistants? TIL

Eating a spider? Not creepy at all

Glowing green effects from paper? Not creepy at all

Reading people, literally? Not creepy at all

Changing people by writing into them? Not creepy at all

Ripping people's faces off and changing their memories? Not creepy at all

Helping someone with impromptu slimming? Not creepy at all

Wearing fountain pen nib earrings? Not creepy at all
