| finally Doppio is here! he's definitely one of my favorite characters in Part 5, and this fight is one of the highlights, I was surprised with how graphic they were able to get in this episode! |
Modernoir said: Yeah thats why im fairly confident the stigma he has is gonna be lifted as the anime goes along, cause the reaction to his scenes thus far have been pretty strong and he hasnt even gotten to his best moments. I say this without spoilers for obvious reason, but here's the thing about this villain, he is DANGEROUS, far more so than any of the antagonists before him and I think when people really grasp just how much part 5 does not fuck around going forward people will warm up to him a bit more than the past.JizzyHitler said: For real, this villain has had such a bad rep for so long as the worst antagonist in the series and I really hope that this anime squashes that sentiment, cause he is such a fun and batshit crazy villain, I mean come on, a dual personality psychopath of radically different personalities with an insane backstory and even more insane power that is active and visible threat after his introduction? How was he ever considered worse than kars and part 3 Dio? The anime has done an amazing hob giving him a very threatening and show stealing presence anytime hes on screen so im hoping people warm up at least a little bit to him. He no Kira or anything but I do think this is probably the most threatening of the jojo antagonists thus far cause of how dangerous he actually is, and then thats in addition to how goofy and fun doppio is its like the best of both worlds for a villain. Honestly 100% agree with this. He's been really great in the anime so far and has nailed every appearance, and we've not even got to his most notable actions as a villain yet. I really think people slept heavily on him just to fit in, he's far more effective of a villain than part 3 DIO and Kars was imo. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| This is my favorite episode so far |

| Risotto is one badass of a traitor, this sure will be interesting. I also liked the fortune teller, that encounter was really funny. |

| whoah, that Doppio guy is off his rocker. Never thought I'd see someone using a frog as a phone... |
| This is not your planet to rule. The Fallen shall rise again. |
| This boss is fucking insane and this was one of the more fucked up jojo backstories here we are at part 5 and i'm still ending up being confused by how crazy some of these characters get |
 |
| Here it is, King Crimson vs Metallica, the highpoint of Part 5 alongside Grateful Dead & Beach Boy. Doppio is no Valentine, Kira or Diego Brando, but he's absolutely crazy and entertaining to watch. His fight with the leader of la Squadra is a blast and one of the bloodiest in the series. I can somewhat agree with the complains as to how some characters should've been dead a LONG time ago (Mista should've died in the train from blood lost after being shot in the head with the bullets IMO) but I'm not bothered about Doppio having such an amazing endurance. I mean, he's supposed to be the main villain of this part, him dying from that alone would be a disappointment. Can't wait for next week, Risotto is an amazing opponent for the boss, is not often that we see villains fighting each other (I think we will have to wait until Part 7 for that to happen again) so this battle was more interesting than usual the first time I read it. |

Alice_Synthesis said: I didn't understand the woman living under the house for 10 years part. Can someone explain without spoilers please. The Boss somehow got hold of his mother and buried her alive so that she couldn't reveal anything about him. Don't think too much about his backstory. The whole thing is nonsensical and it's not really supposed to make sense. We barely know more than the main characters do. Di-Ansatsu said: And I can already tell that none of the weird stuff with his birth are ever gonna be explained... Mystery is great but it needs a good payoff. PedroBV96 said: The boss really proved how competent he is by not knowing the ability of a traitor he is supposed to kill. Yeah, that was weird. I know that The Boss' mentality is "Only the results matter", but I would think he'd want to know or have some way of finding out the ability of a guy who was his top assassin. |

| What an episode! So we finally have seen the boss's face. So he is "inside" that kid without him knowing it? holy shit xD Basically like a double personality but he isn't aware of it, that's why the fortuneteller guy was so surprised. I love this ED so much! It's so good! Glad that our boys are already at the beach! |

| This episode is just freaking messing with my head. Wow dude. |
| Oh my god, that was even more amazing than I hoped it would be. Doppio is hilarious, I always loved him. He is also one of the reasons why I really like the Boss as the main antagonist and never understood why he gets so much hate for being uninteresting. Also, this is one of my favourite fights in the entire franchise. Can't wait for next week. On a side note: Holy shit, Risotto's voice is the manliest thing I have ever heard in my life. |
| Doppio vs Risotto. The Twink vs The Chad. XD Also man I don't get any of the critiques some people here have been saying. Man fuck subjectivity cause this shit is objectively great. PedroBV96 said: The boss really proved how competent he is by not knowing the ability of a traitor he is supposed to kill. What's hard to understand? Risotto has effectivly kept the abilities of his Stand an absolute secret, probably even from his own crew for as long as he's been around. He's the head of an assassination squad, so of course he wants to keep his own abilities hidden. Its exactly like what the boss is doing. The Boss not knowing Risotto's abilities isn't a sign of the Boss' incompetence but a sign that Risotto is one Hell of an assassin. Its a common thing in media, that one villain that has kept his mysterious powers a secret from everyone, even from his own boss. |

Its a common thing in media, that one villain that has kept his mysterious powers a secret from everyone, even from his own boss. Considering that Risotto was working for him for at least 2 years, it's weird that the boss didn't have someone informing him about the abilities of his subordinates, in this particular case Risotto. So yes man, it proves incompetence by the boss. And Risotto knows jack shit about the Boss' powers despite being smart enough to hide his own. They are both the most secretive members of the org. Risotto slightly less but even so he knows how to keep things hidden enough plus his powers are clearly very esoteric. |

| I dont know what Ive done to have the honor or watching an adaptation this perfect but just. wow. bless up. doppio is the best his transition to the boss during the fortune teller scene gave me goosebumps superb voice work and editing. I cannot wait for the boss true appearance I might scream lmao. Risotto's voice is also amazing and its so sick seeing him animated his character design is one of the best. so looking forward to the next episode one of the best fights in part 5 |
PedroBV96 said: Now going a little back @Slimcoder, don't you think that when Melone captured Trish could have taken some of her blood to create a junior that could track the boss? I feel like that would have been possible, maybe yes. Babyface could have probably analyzed it or something. If Giorno hadn't stopped him they could have done that. |

Paralysis said: I think Doppio's antics are more enjoyable in animated form than in the manga. I didn't think much of him in in the manga, but I just splurted twice in this episode watching him abruptly going TRURURURU out of nowhere. Fucking this. I thought it was cheesy and lame in the manga. Here I laughed my ass off. |
| The boss would be so lame without the schizoid man! |

| What's with the hatred of the boss? One of the most consistent complaints I've heard from manga readers is how the boss is an anticlimactic villain, but this episode was probably the best of Golden Wind so far and it was all because the boss was so fucking crazy to watch. So is this a case of the manga readers being elitist jerks or is this a case of good adaptation? |

So is this a case of the manga readers being elitist jerks or is this a case of good adaptation? Both. Take it from me, manga elitists for this series are on a whole different level of obnoxiousness, but the anime has genuinely done a fantastic job of bringing part 5's antagonist to life. Well I guess I should be glad for their obnoxiousness since I was bracing myself for the worst villain in JoJo's before being blown away by this episode. Either way I'm looking forward to the climax which seems to be approaching bit by bit. |

dividingMDH said: There is the elephant in the room of the infamously bad translation that was the only one for English speakers for years that may or may not of played a part in his infamy as the worst villain. But then that aside I genuinely dont know why hes considered the worst, I think its maybe cause hes so much more batshit than the villains before him and makes some irrational decisions but like.....thats the point and why hes so threatening, his mind is so warped and broken in combination with the most powerful stand ability the series has had yet so it kind of just results in him being the most dangerous antagonist in the series yet.What's with the hatred of the boss? One of the most consistent complaints I've heard from manga readers is how the boss is an anticlimactic villain, but this episode was probably the best of Golden Wind so far and it was all because the boss was so fucking crazy to watch. So is this a case of the manga readers being elitist jerks or is this a case of good adaptation? Honestly I only place him slightly below kira solely on a character level, kira is a better character but a worse antagonist cause as much as i love kira, hes a total fucking jobber he just does it in style, the boss however, hes an active and visible threat from now till the end of the series. I think next week is really gonna win over alot of people. Especially when you consider some of his best moments havent even happened yet. |

More than being elitistic, in reality is because of a spoiler. I agree with you, the episodes featuring Bossu has been the best of the series (and the adaptation by DaPro is so far better than the manga), however, my complain (and pretty much the general issue about this part) is the last two arcs. Without saying or giving hints for spoilers, let's say after certain event the series gets out of place, the pacing gets destroyed and is a little bit underwhelming. It is still better than Stardust Crusaders, but I would not expect something great by the end, unless the anime adds a lot of scenes and make it better (I really hope that happens). |
| I don't join the chorus of people who say he's the worst villain. He's pretty cool actually, and has a freakin harfmul stand. maybe it can seem underwhelming to some people because something else is also happening during the deciding moments of Part 5, not just the boss himself. |
|
| I knew they’d bring forward the chapter of the boss’ past and combine it with his introduction thanks to the title of this ep. Honestly, it’s a smart move to do so as it makes the story-telling more smooth and more anime only friendly. The added contents to his backstory is quite decent. Also nice timing for the cliffhanger. Really good job, DP! Regarding the voice actor of Doppio, I must be in the minority cuz I still prefer Ishida Akira-san’s performance in ASB. I guess the anime version was more aiming for the ridiculous feeling with the high-pitched voice while Ishida-san’s more cute. Overall, this ep being part of one of my most favorite fights in JJBA sure didn’t disappoint, 6/5. |
