#Jojo bizarre adventure review series#

Although this is a continuation of the series as whole, it's practically a whole new show with some background info. So I thought that I should just check it out. They were really excited about it and had nothing but praise for it. I first came across the series as a whole after watching two Let's Players play a fighting game for this anime. Overall, people may hate this part compared to Battle in Egypt because yes, this part does have a rocky start, but gets better as it goes on. Everyone's dialogue was of course over the top and ridiculous, but would you expect anything less? Everything was made better with something in English *cough Joseph cough* and the one-liners and jokes had me laughing every time. Hats off to the music team especially because it fits the series so well. The music and sound design were absolutely mind blowing. It's fluid, full of color, and goregeous. The neon color scheme, the way everyone looks which is faithful to Araki's original work, the way everyone's stand looked. I very much liked how everyone's plots were evolved over time, and I found it interesting that after 'The Emperor and The Hanged Man' that Hol Horse was supposed to join the crusaders instead of Avdol coming back. Geil was definitely an interesting turn of events, immediately followed by Avdol's 'death' which was all the more heartbreaking. But to make up for it, Noriaki and Polnareff definitely stole the show. One thing I do have to complain about is that the majority of this part does NOT focus on Jotaro, but instead on establishing everyone else, so our main Jojo felt a little underrated. All of their powers were fairly interesting, even if they were kind of useless. I will say this: I was definitely not disappointed with any of the characters from Stardust. From there, Jotaro meets Noriaki Kakyoin and Jean Pierre Polnareff as the five make their way to Egypt, fighting Dio's assassins who also possess stands. The story starts off with 17 year old Jotaro Kujo, who thinks he's possessed by an 'evil spirit' which his grandfather (Joseph Joestar from Battle Tendency) and a fortune teller named Avdol tell him he possesses a strange and mysterious power called a 'Stand'. However, Battle in Egypt shoots to the stars in quality while Stardust stays on the ground, if you catch my drift. I can safely say overall, I wasn't disappointed. When I first heard about Jojo, I was immediately excited to watch this gem of a series.
