Should probably mention part 5's translation is dogshit.

while this is true. pretty much every part that isn't 3 has a dogshit translation. 4 is the nearest thing to a decent one and only the invincible trio version. 7 is also pretty good most of the way through but about halfway there's some shaky poo poo.

Well, the other translations actually try to care about what was in the text bubbles originally, so I can give them a pass. :unsmith:

i have heard there are 8 parts to this series. i have to ask, which of these parts should i read first? part 5 sounds likely given the name, but i just wanted to ask to make sure...

Read Jorge Joestar first, as a primer.

Thanks everybody, I really appreciate it. I'm still a newcomer to JJBA and I'm reading the Viz editions of the manga, which means I haven't looked much at part 4 on. If anyone knows of good examples from any part of the series of unusual panel sizes and layouts, particularly insane poses, gruesome fights, or anything else that might be a good example of Jojo's intensity, let me know.

Part 6 is pretty much that.

Jolyne Owns.

Whenever I think of Part 5 I'm always soured by how lame the ending was. Like, gold experience gives you several options to beat out mr. time-eraser that aren't "I'm Literally Unkillable, I Win"

Part 6 is one of the strongest parts of the series. Different strokes for different folks.

Just got around to listening to the part 1/2 dub. Not really a fan, but maybe it sounds OK and not stupid to first-time viewers.

Also it doesn't have Get Back! at the end.
