Which is the best version?

They all have problems, imo.

The first release we had is a clear last, for me, but that comes with trying to be first. The image quality, translation are bad (but the meaning is intact).

Dogpark is more straight laced translation and it has bits where it has better english writing than HWMN and bits where it doesn't. It's inconsistent.
We Need More Yankis is also partially translated by Dogpark and this one has the more localised, naturalised English feel to it to the point where it feels like the group could go really edgy and 90's anime fansub. I personally also think it's maybe the closest in style to an official manga release (not particularly JoJo here) and I'm not sure if that's good.
Image quality on both Dogpark related ones is fine.

Hi Wa Mata Noboru is same old same old from them, reliable, stilted, odd, consistent.

I think the best is probably HWMN, with the Yankis one second, but honestly, other than the first one, they're all pretty much in the same ballpark.
The optimal release would probably be HWMN with an editor who make the characters sound like people.

Alright my theory is that this Rohan is the same Rohan from the original timeline and Part 9's really about bringing the old and new timelines together somehow as a big sendoff.

How good are your imaginations? Because mine sucks. I see Silver Chariot, Tower of Gray, The Sun, The Emporer, Sex Pistols and Aerosmith etc and go 'Ah, these I understand immediately everything that they can do.

I still don't know what to expect from The Hustle or new guy's Stand. Still pretty convinced that Jodio's rains pure force like Marvel Cyclops' eye beams.

I really like how most of the protagonist stands we have seen so far don't seem to be made for direct fighting. And even Jodio's very offensively focused stand is pretty different from the usual humanoid stands that Jojo protagonists usually have. It makes me think we'll see a lot of really creative uses and interesting fights with these powers.

I think Dragona and hotdog guy in particular are going to pull off some really crazy stuff. This part is off to such a great start.

It's also early enough that the way their stands work will surely change at some point. The Matte Kudasai's limitation of only duplicating things that other people want seems, to me, like something that will be cast aside pretty quickly.

My favorite detail about that is that those chapters came out like a year before the movie, meaning he read the popular American YA book Holes, just for fun.
