ARRIVEDERCI!

But in all seriousness, I just loved Part 5 and it is my favorite part by far.

- Great characters
- Excellent fighting scenes and overall action
- Great pace
- Beautiful art
- Some of the best stands in all of JOJO.

The only thing missing was a truly compelling villain but Diavolo was still pretty good.

I agreed with everything but the stands

Metallica, King Crimson, and Gold Experience Requiem were three of the most ridiculous things introduced into JoJo. And Kira is a way better villain than Diavolo. I enjoyed Part five up until the part where Risotto came in

this part was cool i like what they did with polnareff, really redeemed him as a character big time i thought.

king crimson was one of the most confusing stands ever

My favorite part of JoJo. While not all of the stands the best ever, I do think this one had some of the most creative ones out of all 7 parts.

How were they ridiculous?:huh

But I do agree Kira is a better villain than Diavolo, though Diavolo did kill more main characters.

Am I the only one in the JoJo fanbase that thought Diavolo was a good villain? I liked the dual personality thing, and he did give the main cast of part five a good run for their money. The only thing I could see somebody saying for him is that he wasn't as fleshed out as the other villains.

Hits the ground running right from the very start. Might be my favorite part of the whole series. The amazing thing is we really see Stands go all out with this one. The bishies can turn off some people, but they're stupid for stopping considering how much they've already invested in the series

I was almost SURE he had a connection with Dio. I mean his name "Diavolo" just fucking smells like Dio
Not only that, his mother was in PRISON and had a baby there

Way to fucked up, makes no sense
It's like his development got scrapped

My least favourite part. It still has some great art and crazy ideas but some characters (read : Giorno, Diavolo) were crap and the ending was damn stupid.

And out of all the unnecessary deaths in Jojo, Narancia's was the worst.

If you don't think Gold Experience Requiem is ridiculous, you need your head examined. The only reason it came about in the first place was because King Crimson was so overpowered that it needed something equally overpowered to take it down.

As for Metallica? OH JEEZ SCISSORS FROM MY NECK THAT I CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT AND ILL DIE FROM IRON DEFICIENCY ANYWAY seems pretty ridiculously overpowered to me

The bolded part was unnecessary and Gold Experience is not the only ridiculous stand out there

For example:

Stairway to Heaven accelerates time to the point where the entire universe is rewritten and the only person that can keep up is the user himself and God

Another One bites the dust puts anyone in a time loop so that way they can never tell anyone who tells the user's identity and is told the identity gets killed

Notorious BIG always gets stronger and faster than its intended target.

And there are many more so Gold Experience and King Crimson are not the only ridiculous out there and I don't see the problem with it being ridiculous. Araki has been able to actually create fights with those same ridiculous stands without using plot induced stupidity unlike other mangakas

GER stops all the ones you listed in their tracks

period, you can't fight it, it doesn't allow for fights to even take place, and picking out other really abilities doesn't mean that GER is any less crazy.

I know GER is crazy but in a universe where there are full of crazy abilities, GER just doesn't anger or pisses me off as it would. It's not like in Naruto where you have the Sharingan which is borderline broken and then everyone else has average abilities, GER exists in a universe where there are crazy stands everywhere and even though GER is very crazy, one should not be shocked or upset about it considering all the previous stands before GER were very crazy as well.

Perhaps I should have said that it is ridiculous but why make a big deal about it considering this is Jojo you are referring to.

Because even within Jojo every Stand has it's strengths and weaknesses. GER has no weakness. It just fucks you up.

Haha, I never did finish this part. Was only translated up to a little after they 'safely' got whatshername to where they were going. What does GER do excactly?
