Good thing Jojo is awesome overall or I woulda insta-dropped it for animal cruelty. Heard he does that to accurately portray evil so he can hate the villains and rejoice when they get beat up but this kinda went too far, the stand is already creepy as it is, no need for that on top of it


Well, yes. But JoJo is a horror manga to a certain degree. There is a lot of random deaths through the whole manga, persons and animals. It's pretty hypocrisy of people to just care about them.

So this group is supposed to be smart yet a bloody and obvious message IN THE ARM is kept hidden without the group getting suspicious ?

I wonder how they are going to deal with a baby stand user?


The grossness, the grossness! I can't unsee it!

I'm not going to tell you to not watch it because it's useless. But not watch the next episode while you eat because it's really disgusting.

I read it months ago and I still want to vomite just remembering.

Seriously one of my favorite bits from the manga -- it exemplifies the great use of horror and balls to the wall absurdity that part 3 is so great at. Glad to see they've adapted it pretty much flawlessly.

One of the best parts about Stardust Crusaders is that all the characters get to have their time in the limelight -- oftentimes their fights being way more interesting than our MC's -- and this one is most definitely Kakyoin's best. Very excited for next week.

What a stupid episode. They're suspicious of a plane being a stand but not a baby having one? And the episode should've been over already, he knows its the fucking baby. It's the same with the Lover episodes it doesn't have to be this fucking long it's just being padded out if there isn't enough material for a 24 episode season just make it 20 instead of packing it full of filler garbage.

Also people told me at the beginning of the season if they took an airplane they wouldn't stand a chance against the people Dio sent after them. We're 19 episodes in and I haven't seen any stand user that could take down a private plane. I'm really shocked that people actually liked this episode. Not sure why you'd like a low quality rehash of Nightmare on Elm Street. 2/5

Thing is, their not necesarily worried about enemy stands crashing a plane with their powrs, it's just that having to fight with one in such a cramped space while in suspended flight is super dangerous (it'd just be harder for them to use their own stands and impossible to run from an enemy) .

But Kakyoin doesn't know that the baby is the stand user, actually he doesn't even know there is a stand user nearby. He suspect that, after he sees his own message of blood on his arm but he's not sure. He himself fears that he's losing sanity, plus the memoring erasing thing makes him even more confused. I honestly think they gave enough hints to make it believable.

@gedata How could another stand reach them in the sky? I mean if they're flying in a plane too couldn't Kakyoin attack it? Also it's not like they're forced to fly next to it.

@Akanezora Ya I know he forgets the stuff in the dream but with the message on his arm, dead dog, and wound he had in the morning I'd think he'd be able to figure it out. If he doesn't at least tell the others about the message on his arm at the beginning of the next episode it's going to be super obvious that this two parter is just crappy filler.

Exactly, just as you say, now that the hints have been revealed he should figure it out by the next episode, at least this is the most logic answer I could give you without spoiling too much.

That said, I really suggest you to take these "fillers" for what they are, simply fun. Enjoy the references, enjoy the silliness of some characters, enjoy the fights of wits but don't expect intricate plot twists, yet. And just to be clear, I'm not trying to be a smart-ass or something, I'm just saying this for your own benefit.

Oh, as for the attack on the plane you speak off, I'll try to answer for Gedata.
They don't know what kind of Stand could attack them by any moment, perhaps there are some that can fly? After all, what do we know so far about Stands? They are unpredictable.
But! In the end they took the risk, since time was running out and they felt the pressure of Holly's life.

Poor Kakyoin, that's the shittiest situation he could be in (no pun intended). How can he prove that the baby is a stand user while remembering nothing of the dream. That's some meta bullshit.

Polnareff is still the same useless guy :P
And Joseph the same terribly unlucky plane driver...

>filler
>episodic series

are you serious

I mean yeah, don't get me wrong, some of the episodes got padded out a bit from the manga because of pacing (The Sun is the most obvious example), but this one is entirely manga-accurate and there is nothing wrong with the pacing. Unless you're calling the fight itself filler, in which case CONGRATULATIONS ON NOT MENTALLY PROCESSING ANYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN THE LAST 16 EPISODES AND SOMEHOW STILL BELIEVING THE FIGHTS IN THIS SERIES ARE PART OF A PLOT PROGRESSION.

Just for you I found my original post so I can elaborate on it some more in regards to this


  • After the Tower of Grey fight they realised just how dangerous it is to fight in a plane. You have to remember that the interior of a plane is both pressurised and is limited in space, which would make movement (such as dodging) hard to do and reduce their ability to fight (eg Avdol couldn't use his flames, else he'd blow up the plane).
  • They don't know what other powers the other enemy stand users possess. Without spoiling anything I can say that had they encountered some of the other enemies on a plane that they would have all been wiped out in one go. You should never underestimate the unknown, especially when the other side knows more about you then what you know about them.


[list]
[*] It is still very dangerous to fight in an airplane, mainly due to limited movements. Additionally all it takes is one wrong stray punch from SP, stray stab/slash from SC, or stray emerald from HG to compromise the integrity. Let's not even go into if Avdol was still there; everyone would go up into a massive ball of flame.
[*] While there is a Stand later on that COULD take down a private plane (I can't say without spoilers sorry), that's not really what I meant. What I meant was that there are Stands that would've been able to wipe them out due to the advantages they'd have in a sealed environment and because of the mechanics of the Stand. So far there's been Yellow Temperance and Hanged Man who would've been quite awful, Death 13 would've despite what you say, another one directly after the next fight would've been pretty bad and there's at least three others that I can think of (including that one that could just bring the entire plane down).

I don't think it's that hard to fight in a plane for them. The way I understood it is that they won't take planes because they will endanger other civilians, who have nothing to do with this on a large scale.

But this plane is only for the 4 of them and no other passengers. So even if a stand attacked they wouldn't mind since i wouldnt endanger civilians. I don't think fightning in a plane has anything to do with it, no matter how more difficult it is.

Joseph has no luck with planes. :(

Poor Kakyoin, but it's pretty clever to pick him as the victim. His character arc is set up so that his sanity/loyalty is questioned constantly so when the time comes where it really matters for people to trust him, even he can't trust himself. And the only one who can support him is unfortunately the incredibly dense Pol.

Joseph survives another plane crash. Both a blessing and a curse.
