I stopped watching SPT Layzner sometime around when the pacing was going bonkers and they were in an ancient mayan(?) temple that actually tells the true origins of the oppressive space people. I should finish it, even if I hear the end is kind of a wtf Also grab the OVAs which are apparently literally the ending of the TV series, but makes sense. I'm going to watch anime.

Like, it's OK to not like JoJo, i was kidding earlier about how everyone should like every part, but do you think maybe some of your dislike of it is on you for just jumping in in the middle?

They went into Part 3 expecting it to be more like Parts 1 and 2, and some of them took it being otherwise pretty poorly.

Let me go back on the schedules and see where exactly I started jojo. I really only remember the girl being stolen and then the Villain talked about "you gotta come to Egypt!" The only memorable thing I have is the tea shop thing, and no I am not talking about the water and cup game in Egypt

I think that the actual biggest issue with 3 really is just that Jotaro loving blows. The monster of the week thing would be fine if our Mc was better. HMMMMMM

yeah Stardust Crusaders is basically the third "season" or "arc" of the jojo franchise i think it'd be possible to pick it up at the beginning of part 3 and enjoy it, but it's pretty strongly related through the characters and overarching plot threads to the first two parts

i mean if the show didn't grab you then i don't think anyone's going to convince you to give it another shot here, but if you feel like trying it again maybe start with the first or even second season, or just the first episode of stardust crusaders so you have a better feel for the plot and character setup
