Restaurant de Nouvelles "À Table" Proudly Presents:
A Climactic Encounter Ending on 1 Negate and a Dream
I will say I think this is the one place where I wish CR took some stuff from the Invincible Trio translation because Okuyasu's line about his dream has always felt really plain in every other translation



"'S hosed up, right?"

It sucks for Kira that all his unstoppable stands get hard countered by the Duwang gang.

How will our brave hero, Kira, get out of this most desperate of pinches?? Tune in next week to find out!

I got unreasonably hyped when the color swap happened and we got True Kira.

Sick pranks for all you dudesters out there: prank call that smelly old man you hate so he murders his own dad!

They went with the second to final DiU colour scheme for it (which is what the true Kira scheme is anyway).

Why does everyone think I'm going to get in trouble?

Purple Suit Kosaku with gray brushed hair is fantastic and I'm glad it made its way into the anime at least once.

There were some pose shots in this ep that felt like they were practically traced out of the manga.

Not that I'm complaining, of course.

I'm still pretty sad that the person who sent me the Kira SAS I bought sent me the white one because they listed it in error (or so they say, it was inexplicably £40 quid cheaper than the other listings). I got some money back to make it a fair price but I want that purple Kira so bad and it's gone up by another £40 on the old average price since October :smith:

The white Kira (same colours as regular anime Kosaku) I have is still good though.

Good god, this episode was so loving good it makes me even sadder that it's almost over.

I can't help thinking that was a really interesting place to end it on. Usually, the cliffhangers happen when the heroes are in a pinch, but in this case, it's Kira who clearly appears to be ultrafucked.

So, uh, cliffhanger working as intended, actually. Never mind all that.

It's pretty quiet but they kept Killer Queen's WRRRYEAH too. Which is basically the only stand cry it ever has. (after the punch when his head cracks)

There's a really good write-up to be had about the communal themes in Part 4 and how well Kira getting his poo poo wrecked from all sides caps off that theme.

Before anyone who knows that the next part is called Vento Aureo/Golden Wind gets excited and thinks the next episode name confirms Part 5, it's just what the final chapter of Diamond is Unbreakable is called so it doesn't confirm it so there's no hype to be had there.

It'd be the most surprising thing ever if they didn't, especially as the Japanese love it dearly, but getting hyped over something unconfirmed is the road to heartbreak.

They've made a lot of progress on the good version of part 5 this year and there are roughly 40, a bit less maybe, chapters to go and the dude doing it posts here you meanie!!!

The only good part of Part 5 is the penultimate fight. Even the final fight is trash. There's a good meme in the first couple of chapters though.

part 5 has a couple fights that are some of the best in the series so your red title still holds true here

To put CJ's contrarianism into perspective, the vast majority of people who dislike Part 5 concede that there are a bunch of fights that are supremely good. Much more than "the penultimate one".

Don't mind me, I'm just an incredibly petty human being, lol

Probably the only reason I even care so much is because DiU is still airing so I keep getting reminded to check every week or two

i replied in the manga thread. and yeah, i'm not a fan of how part 5 is constructed compared to part 4 (which isn't saying a huge amount since 4 is tight as hell) but there's multiple fights that are top-tier jojo. i would look forward to a part 5 anime at least for those fights alone.
