Nope, it's episode 37. Then 3 weeks later we get 38 and 39 together.

no it's the really early scene with the nude prison admittance with the exchange that goes
Jolyne: "Err... excuse me, this is a female prison, right?"
Dr: "She's been injected with male hormones"

and I just looked it up to post but I don't really think it's work safe.
kind of wish she had a stand but then she either would have become a villain or gotten killed by pucci.

You say "she" but isn't it the other way around? He's probably a trans-man who got put in the women's prison because the assigned gender on his birth certificate was female. This is a thing that happens in real American prisons after all.

And that, as much as anything else, led to my drinking problem.
Yeah, that's not where I expected this episode to end. I'm guessing they are going to mix up the order of things a bit and put the Rolling Stone stuff before Diavolo getting eternally dunked on.

Maybe it's just because i knew what was going to happen but the pacing felt terrible in this episode. I guess they had to pad it out long enough to not reveal the infinite death bullshit, because every scene felt like it went on twice as long as it should have. That bit with Trish saying the Giornio had won went on forever. That's not even getting into how stupid and unsatisfying GER is as a resolution to the story.

Didn't I kill him with a HELICOPTER?
So there's a 2-episode special ina couple of weeks to end the show, right? Just for deathloop, the gang sees a rock, and Giorno becomes king gangster?

Deffo feels like this episode suffered a bit for that, like CJ said, things felt pretty slow for what was covered. Hell, halfway through I still thought the fight was going to completely end with how little there was. Or that maybe I forgot and King Crimson did get an upgrade after all.

The two bits i disliked the most were the fakeout with Diavolo stabbing his hand and it not working, then the fakeout where Gold Experience stabbed itself and it seeming like it didn't work. Just needless fakeouts to build unearned tension.

Is the time loop death thing immediately after the Muda or is there more before that?

Even having already read the manga I still found myself thinking "wait, that was the fight?"

Part 5 has benefitted from being animated, and it has helped my enjoyment of it, but man did this end on a bad point.

I love everyone speculating how the fight has 2 episodes left, clearly something will happen. It's gonna be delicious in a few weeks when all that anticipation leads to just like four minutes of mindboggling beatdown, a big rock and an epilogue.

That's not how the Triangle Attack works...
There's some JoJo stuff being discussed at Anime Expo and YonkouProd has been tweeting about it, here's some fun tidbits (quoted directly from his tweets so I don't spam a dozen tweets in a single post):

quote:

There were 6 animators for each cut of the Muda Muda scene and they competed for the best one.

quote:

The 3 directorsr, producer and one more went to Italy and they visited all of Italy except Sardinia sadly.

5 days in Rome Naples Capri, Venice and Pompeii for "work"

quote:

They also have a video with Araki-sensei

It's a very special video

Araki young as ever. He describes Part t as about characters who have no choices or places to belong. People who live in the underworld. The most important thing is the men. The beautiful men and their perishing

Arakis favourite character is mista

his loyalty and certainty is great

He enjoyed drawing the brotherly conversation with Perscutto

Araki says he'll come to the us if he can and he wants to meet Benecio Del Toro as well

He recently saw Sicario and he absolutely loves Del Toro so if anyone knows him they want to put him in touch. Also this was filmed on his birthday June 7th

His birthday present was that he was going to the gym that day.

quote:

Who got any questions for the staff lol

They said Part 6 depends on all the fans supporting the show and part 5 currently

Someone asked about Purple Haze Feedback and he said let me think about that

Anecdotally I'll say that I've seen way more online discussion about Part 5 waaaay more than Part 4. Way more fanart/people changing their avatars to part 5 characters etc. I'll also say again that SA is a very small anime community, and I've seen a lot of anime onlys say that Part 5 is their new favorite.

Also Part 5 is brain blastingly popular in Japan so this is all a long way of me saying It's Probably Fine And There Will Def Be A Part 6

yeah actually they will

week climax aside it’s hard to argue that the 30-something episodes up to then were anything other than a spectacular rollercoaster ride
