Sorry to undo the effort of paying a domestic abuser $10 to own this poster, but I am going to lose my dang mind if I keep seeing multiple posters who appear to be Baloogan.

Looks like they're going to keep up the Passione backstories for introductory fights; Mista's was this episode.

If they don't end on Rolling Stones like it's supposed to, they're cowards and frauds.

I love Mista's backstory, given how much Pt5 is tied up with the idea of fate. Mista wasn't meant to die, even with 4 dudes shooting at him, so he just...didn't die.

I wonder if they just took out how Mista met Bruno or if that's going to be shown later.

It's also a neat reference to this scene, I think.

The episode ends before the Next Episode title, but no matter what we get Trish next week

also a couple times, Mista's eyes have the cut out triangles that either Diavolo or Pucci gets which is interesting

Cool, I assume next week will be mostly story heavy, maybe just barely start Aerosmiths introduction.

I do wonder where they're going to put the rest of Mistas backstory, I don't really know where a better place would be exactly. Maybe they'll flesh it out a bit more like that they did with Abbacchios

I think next week might just end with the start of the Little Feet fight, like how last week's started with the start of Kraftwerk, so all the episodes are staggered a little. But yeah, Trish is definitely next week :allears:

While yes, it’s ~F.A.T.E.~, isn’t that supposed to be Mista subconsciously using Sex Pistols, like how Giorno grew the grass around the mobster, or how Star Platinum was just shoplifting poo poo for Jotaro.

I don't think they outright say that. If Araki wanted that to be the case, then the narration would have said that, like with Giorno subconsciously growing the grass and Star Platinum trying to buy Jotaro's love.

the narrator even calls it nothing short of miracle. it could be some latent thing where Mista is just a natural shot and cool under pressure that influences what Sex Pistols would be, like Rohan, but i feel it's just Tales Of The Weird kinda thing

araki could make a character's backstory some poo poo like 'and then this person participated in a pie eating contest and in their 17th pie they bit into the blade of the knife that was used to kill their grandfather back in world war 2 which somehow made its way there despite all the odds and that's why this person believes in solipsism' and i wouldn't even loving blink, and even beyond that their stand would just be some esoteric, unrelated poo poo like 'they can tell people's fortunes using a set of alf-themed pogs and those fortunes always come true'

I hope Cioccolata being MUDA'd is just that episode's end credits. Just MUDA for as long as the ending takes.

It does, it happens in Narancia's very first fight too.

Speaking of I'm glad that's coming soon, I forgot the part where Aerosmith can't find the guy because of the exploded car so Narancia is just like "gently caress it I'll blow up all of the cars."

Yes, micro-size Formaggio hit the plane in the left wing when it flies in the sewer and it wounds Narancia's left arm.

At this point, Mudman abruptly ends the conversation. He usually insists on the last word.
so, I heard that in part 5 if a stand gets hit with the arrow it becomes a super stand


in that case, isn't the entire arc basically like Raiders of the Lost Ark where if GioGio had just let Black Sabbath win at the very beginning everything would have been better

so at that point in Giorno's character development it would have just killed him

At best it might have evolved his stand power like the arrow did with Kira

Wouldn’t he still die from the arrow in his neck?
