Yeah I've heard about horrible confusion in the mistranslation, but so far everything has been pretty logical, at least in Jojo terms

We haven't yet gotten to either the part that's memetically confusing or the part that's way more confusing than even that.

We're at the annoying middle part of a JoJo season in-between soundtrack releases. I really want the version of the main theme that plays when Bruno unzips his head, goddammit!

Prosciutto is one of the best villains in Jojo. Don't even fight me on this.

I'd have respected him for 1 precautionary shot to the brain pan. But 3? What a pro! Too bad it turned out even that degree of caution seems to have not been enough.

Prosciutto's error was not shooting four bullets. That last bullet would've killed Mista, and if it didn't, then the fact that he would then have four holes in his head definitely will.

i don't know if it was mentioned at any point but 'mammone/mammoni' basically means 'mama's boy', so that's what prosciutto is calling pesci

I love how he's like "No one else on our team would have dismissed their Stand when they were so close to killing their adversary."

And given that Illuso stayed calm enough to keep Giorno, Abbacchio, and Fugo kept in the mirror world while he was dying from a flesh eating virus (not to mention everything Formaggio went through), you can see where he's coming from.

My favorite thing from this part is how loving crazy the protagonists are. Willingly lose limbs, shooting yourself, throwing you and the rear end in a top hat you're fighting out of a train going 150 kilometers per hour.

They only survive because they have the perfect stands to get away with this poo poo.

Shooting yourself is pretty stupid even if you have something like Sex Pistols.

At least one of the crew has to die as is the way of things, and this is gang life

I wouldn't be surprised if it's Fugo, seems like they set that up in the mirror fight

I mean as badass as it is, Stands can go intangible so Sex Pistols should have been able to get in there without him having to shoot himself. Jotaro stuck Star Platinum's hand through his own chest for example.

Pretty sure the gang life aspect of this season means that at least half the crew will die before the end. My moneys on Abacchio, Naranca, Mista, and Bucciarati.

In the moment Mista decided that he'd take two shots to the arm than break up the formation and have two bullets fire uncontrolled.

Whether you think its dumb or not, its quick thinking. I'm noticing that rather than flatout dumb like I remember, Mista is moreso just rash

Mista isn't Polnareff or Okuyasu, he isn't meant to be the funny dumb member of the group, despite being physically similar to them. That's Narancia's job. Mista is actually pretty clever most of the time, even if he's hot blooded.

And even Polnareff isn't as dumb as Okuyasu or Narancia. Polnareff is also rash, but he lacks Mista's coolheadedness.
