I got to episode 33 and this thing with Diavolo jumping in and speaking Italian to Giorno is cool but it also kinda feels like the weakest of these cut ins after Part 3 and 4's.

Also doesn't help Traitor's Requiem kinda sucks.

Ok so the weird Warp mutation thing stopped after they killed Silver Chariot Requiem. I’d forgotten that there was an explanation given to that dumb poo poo, instead of just never being mentioned again.

Also I forgot that Spice Girl was ever seen again?

Honestly every single thing about this “fight” sequence is basically a blind watch for me since the poo poo translations and visual fidelity of the Buddhist Valley Scanlation didn’t do a great job of conveying to me that Diavolo’s soul was hiding in the gang and body-hopping, since while King Crimson is often just used as a stand-in for Diavolo himself for visual and talking scenes, it’s kind of confusing when everyone else’s internal thoughts are accompanied by a transparent image of their own real body next to their swapped body. Just like when the guys are superimposed over their new female bodies in Back Street Girls.


I think a few pages ago someone said that it would have been cool if the Diavolo persona “was” King Crimson?

Also I think I’ve decided I’m going to not read any more Jojolion till it’s done (last read around when that guy taught them to make tiramisu on his secret ski lift house) I think that to tie them in with the Pillar Men, the Rick Human leader should be revealed to be named Benjamin Ore.

That also means Bohemian Rhapsody's effects were worldwide because I remember someone asking about this and characters were coming to life all over the world so.

That's gonna be fun to see animated.

Not only were they briefly real, they faced off against one another as they did in the manga - as reported by various eyewitness sources.

Canonically, a lucky few got to experience one of the great shounen smackdowns firsthand. Then they died.

I like to imagine he did and Rohan just quietly pushed him back into the comic he was drawing, shaking his head and blaming Josuke somehow.

It pretty much is. He does get a body in the end, but for all intents and purposes, he's always a soul hiding behind another personality because he's so scared of being out in the open. That's also why he dies (over and over and over again) when he's finally stuck out in the open with nowhere to hide.

I think Kira is a better final battle because of how many different characters get to contribute meaningfully to it, how many different Chekov’s guns from previous episodes come into play, and how desperate the fight feels down to it’s final moments. It really feels like a culmination of everything that came before it.

DIO vs Jotaro is a solid third place for finales tho.

(First place is Valentine, obviously)

No, it was Giorno awakening his own Stand like a few months before part 5 starts. He still has the black hair well into his teens until Gold Experience gives him Anime Hair.

since the finale of part 5 is gonna be delayed i personally lobby that the let's read of part 7 starts up sometime after this week's episode airs

part of that is because i'm impatient and want to advertise it to anime people (with very minor, spoiler bar'd, brief synopses of certain aspects to draw interest) and tell them how dope it is

I say wait until Part 5 is put to bed and maybe a bit after to let discussion of Rolling Stone play out.

I don't wanna sweep Part 5 under the rug like i'm ashamed of it, it's weird and not perfect, but let's at least wait till the body starts getting cold.

People also might not be gnawing at the bit to jump into an all new JoJo part too
