Patrick was a very naughty stand user. Also is there a consensus on that hat/hair situation? Is the hat torn? Is there hair on the hat? What's going on there, by golly?

Or of course, we can always look to the Part 4 movie

I have seen all, I have heard all, I have forgotten all.
So to celebrate episode 1of Jojo's Italian Adventure, I ordered pizza from this place that some friends really like. They had caprese so of course I got one too.


It's a box of cheese.

"Koichi, I just learned about a possibly evil super-powered son of my mortal enemy. I thought you, a undersized high-schooler, would be the best person to send to the other side of the planet to confront him instead of the half dozen or more super powered badasses I know. I'd go myself but these Starfish legs won't count themselves."

I'd like to imagine his department just gives him grade school-level tasks to do but he takes them very seriously and usually just spends his time looking at photos of starfish or funny YouTube videos of octopuses stealing things on a fishing boat.

the anime skipped over it, but he wanted someone with a long range stand so they could get info on Haruno without having to get too close to him, so Koichi's actually a pretty smart person to go with if it wasn't for the whole 'stand users attract other stand users' thing

Jotaro can't send a Joestar, because if anything would trigger latent DIO genes that would do it, so that rules out him and Josuke.

Okuyasu is a great guy but isn't exactly subtle, and he has to take care of his dad anyway.

Rohan was too busy preparing for his Alaskan Sled Dog manga by interviewing werewolves.


Really Koichi was the best (only) option.

It should say "this is the taste of the day that comes after Thursday" to be more in line with the official Crunchyroll translation I've been seeing around.



There was like a 3 second clip of it in some versions of the ep (I watched the Chinese one, and it was there, I'm guessing JP as well had it). Lots of brass instruments.

Well, I mean, he DID kill his father. Would be kinda awkward to go himself if Giorno knows anything about him inexplicably. Somehow Akira learned that Jotaro could stop time when he had only done it once in Morioh prior to his showing up.

He should have asked Polnareff. He told Joseph and Jotaro to just give him a call and he will come running. I doubt he would just sit around at home when his friend needs help.

The only problem I have with the beginning of Vento Aureo is that Koichi and Yukako don't go to Italy together, if only because Yukako is great and seeing her tearing Italy apart to get to Giorno would be funny to me.

Also, we never really get to see them do things as a couple. :(

Friends are what make testing worth it.
Part 5 is set 6 years after Part 4, Koichi is not a high schooler anymore.

Edit: Nope, i'm wrong, it's 2001, not 2005.

Jotaro asks someone else to say a one-liner to cover up that he couldn't think of any himself at the moment.

Part 3 Jotaro becomes an infinitely better character when you realize that he's not a cool guy, but a high schooler trying to be a cool guy.

I admit, Jotaro is probably my least favourite Jojo but imagining him as just this guy constantly trying super hard to be cool makes him a lot more likable.

He also gets a lot better once Part 4 rolls in and he can be properly mature instead of a tryhard though, so it fits well with that as well.

Also I can't believe just how pretty this episode was. It's not Part 7 Araki levels of pretty yet, but it was an insanely good-looking episode and while I know first episode means it gets more work than what's coming, I hope the series can keep at least close to this level of quality for the rest of it.
