Finally, we got the new opening song!

Episode is cool. They're adapting chapters 85+ and beyond. There's a shark in the soup! Getting into the Talking Head arc, I thought they made the episode feel tense with all the cast together.

Narancia sold his reactions flawlessly. We even got the peeing scene lol

I like the new OP, but not as much as the first one. Spoilery af tho

New ED caught me off-guard, but I love it.

Felt bad for Narancia throughout the entire episode. Man got played like a man fiddle. And that tongue cut was brutal.

Visually, this episode is lackluster, but it's best to skimp out for the weaker fights like these, and save more time in their schedule for the major fights.

Fight was weak in the manga and it's weak here. 3/5
OP and ED are the story here and they get a 5/5 from me.

Great episode with Crash and Talking Head. A great combination which can be quite deadly. And can't wait to see GER in action!

I really, REALLY like the new opening (some great allusions to King Crimson songs in it!) and while I was certainly surprised by a second ED, Enigma's Modern Crusaders fits the show. Unlike the new themes, the episode was full of meh animation though. Gonna save that money for the final somewhere, I guess.

I was actually hoping that the animation in this arc will be really weak and glad that was the case, since this arc is the most boring arc in my opinion and doesn't need to have a good animation, they can save that for later episodes.

new op and ending 10/10 tho

Okay, new opening - Sounds good, the animation shows Trish's stand and Giorno holding the stand arrow except it's a way shorter than the ones from part 4
New ending too. Pretty interesting, we never had 2 different songs before (except Oingo Boingo/Hol Horse)
We're having an another double battle which is gonna be pretty good. The last one was great.
Localized stand names:
Clash - Crush
Talking Head - Talking Mouth

Finally a new opening and even ending. The op was a bit different than what I expected, but it's starting to grow on me the more I listen to it. Though the visuals are a little more spoilerish compared to Fighting Gold.

I feel I'm the only one here who didn't like this OP at all and most likely it's going to be the first skippable one from this franchise for me. Modern Crusaders by Enigma though was a great choice for the new ED. As for the episode, it was quite hilarious seeing Narancia saying the exact opposite things of what he wanted to say yet it was creepy at the same time. Clash is pretty scary as well and that attack on Giorno at the end... Certainly not the best episode from the series but still not bad.

Me: Garçon,there's a Stand in my soup.
Waiter: *strikes pose*

Opening was fine, but I definitely prefer the first one atm. Still had some sweet visuals and we even got to see Trish's Stand.

Regarding the episode itself, well, it was very enjoyable again.

Narancia under the influence of Talking Head had me rolling hahaha.

New opening is fine song wise, not as good as Fighting Gold, but gotta get used to it (think that will probably happen). Visuals were pretty dope though (even with all the spoilers). What surprised me the most however is that they changed the ending in the same season (Stardust Crusaders did it, but that one has two), that's a first for JoJo. Will miss Freek'N You, but I guess it was way too hot for the more serious events that are going to come (and the new song is great too, so...).

Also, is worth mentioning this is the third time JoJo anime has reused a voice actor who previously participated in a previous Part into a newer one. First was Satoshi Tsuruoka (first he voiced Wired Beck in Battle Tendency and later Tamami in Diamond is Unbreakable), then Junichi Suwabe (Terence D'Arby in Stardust Crusaders and then Abbacchio in Vento Aureo), and now Kenjiro Tsuda (Bruford in Phantom Blood and now Tiziano). I guess with a series with so many characters, reusing voice actors is unavoidable (not that I'm complaining, mind you).
And speaking about reusing voice actors, since Squalo is voiced by Tomoaki Maeno, I hope they bring him back in a new Part to voice a more memorable character.

Glad to have a new op but honestly I find it very lackluster and lacking in energy especially its vocals. Love the ED choice however

Episode itself was weaker than usual but ive never particularly liked this fight, i do think in animated form its actually a tad bit more annoying cause its so much more obvious something is wrong but everyone kind of comes off like an idiot not picking up on signs.

Jesus Christ, the amount of spoilers in the new OP lmfao. Beware Anime Onlies xD

I have mixed feelings on the new OP and ED, I guess I'll grow on them.

This episode had cheesy animation, but not as bad as QUALITY QUEEN.

Gotta love Narancia Peeing and beating that thug alongside Mista and Abacchio xD

Just to let the anime-only guys know, this is one of the most spoiler heavy opening out of all Jojo.

They literally showed one of the final panels of the manga, but it is pretty good.

Weird episode as it was in the manga, but I enjoyed it.

I loved the way they beat up that guy, and how Abacchio joins them after drinking his wine. Guess that's hiw mafia works.

That's what bothered me. They could clearly see Narancia's offputting behaviour and they did not suspect anything up until the end of the episode when Giorno FINALLY noticed that something's going on

I dont think he'd fit the boss honestly. Tsuda has got this kind of rugged voice more in line with a cheeky asshole or a condescending punk like hes having fun with the situation, the boss comes off more to me as a meticulous and threatening person, professional and deadly to which i think his new voice fits.

Is it just me, or was the animation terrible in this episode.
No this was definitely a budget constraining episode especially after the last few, not too much of a loss cause this fight isnt really all that action heavy.

New opening is for sure a Golden experience ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°
Also funny in this episode was this scene;
Random guy: "Y-You bastard you spilled wine on my 4 million lire suit"
Narancia: "He must be an enemy!" *starts kicking him*
Mista: "Well are you?" *helps kicking him*
Abbacchio: *Watches as he takes a sip of his wine then starts kicking him too*

The new OP is... alright? Some major spoilers in there, which seemed kinda weird. The new ED on the other hand is a straight banger. I don't know what I was expecting, but a remix of O Fortuna definitely wasn't on the list.

A little off-putting how the animation dipped in quality a few times during the episode. Maybe DP is already directing their resources towards the glorious

Yeah, like when Giorno was attacked by Babyface and trying to get Narancia's attention. "Oh, Giorno's waving at us from across the parking lot. We're being hunted by assassins right now, but I think he just wants me to hurry up." But I guess most enemy stands wouldn't really work otherwise. They always have these weirdly specific abilities.

I'm probably one of the few thinking that but.. The new opening became one of my favorite Jojo op, I'm just a sucker for symphonic-dramatic-epic music like that.
Also

I LOVE the ending, as I love Enigma in general. Never thought we would have them in a Jojo end but here we are hehe
Of course animation sucks as everyone said but I don't care about this fight anyway, just like the ridiculous moments with Narancia and the gaysters, I mean gangsters Tiziano and Squalo : relationship goals right here !

PS : Abbacchio is amazing and I love him and so should you.

The animation for this episode was absolute garbage, weird considering DP was doing a good job so far.
"Doubting everything that you take on... That is very important. Open your own eyes, clear out your ears, and look and listen to the world... And think using your own brain. After you've doubted everything, there is a possibility of something real to believe in. To believe in something, doubt everything."

Phew, this episode was good!
I noticed (and I'm sure a lot of people did) that the animation looked kind of weak, and bad. But hey, they gotta save that money for the amazing scenes that are coming. Personally I didn't really like this fight so I'm glad they're saving up the budget.

Also new opening! I LOVE the visuals, but the song doesn't convice me yet, maybe listening to it more will get me used to it.
Can't believe they straight up spoiled Trish's Stand though, couldn't they have a silhouette or something? Damn lol.

On the other hand, the new ending caught me off guard. I listened to Enigma before (because of Jojo) and loved the music, so the song choice really surprised me.
Guess we aren't waking up feeling so horny anymore.

I agree about this and I had a hard time watching the whole thing because of it. The animation quality this episode sure didn't help either...

Still don't feel anything for the OP and I really disliked the ED (so far with only listening to them once).

Love when Abbachio saw Narancia and Mista kicking the guy and join them thinking it’s an enemy xD


I love that Abbachio has to indulge in a sip of fine red wine before he gets up and joins curbstomping a stranger. :P I'm glad they made this scene as funny as it was in the manga.

But yeh, the rest of the episode regarding the fight was weak, both in animation quality and the poor set-up for the fight. Even for JoJo, it's hard to take this fight seriously when all the gang members were somehow too distracted to notice a metal shark swimming around in the wine bottle and glasses. Mista literally looks at the glass of water right next to where Clash was and doesn't bat an eye.

They could've easily fixed this by making Clash disappear quickly, right before Mista or anyone of the others turn their heads toward Clash's location.Then it might have been easier to swallow the character's logic.

Still, looking forward to the end of the fight. Even if the fight is pretty unspectacular, I remember the end of the fight having another badass Narancia moment, so that should be fun to look forward to.

I really liked the enemy stands and Squalo's and Tiziano's personalities so far, but I kept getting distracted by the awful animation, wtf happened? last episode was amazing, why everything looks so ugly now? I guess it is excusable because it didn't happen that much, but still, im disappointed, I hope episode 24 actually looks good like the rest of the anime till now.


I fucking loved the new op and ed,they will probably become my favorites, also,I loved the ost during the "fight", so thats something, i guess.

The most interesting thing in this episode was the new Opening and Ending so no more Fighting Gold :( But hey, I'm probably gonna love them after I get used to them (the ending remind me of an another song but damn I can't remember it).

This episode was...Meh. Classic Jojo style everyone is a genius or super dumb depending of the plot of the week. This reminded me of the fight with Enya because of how stupid and blind the main characters can be. The animation was also pretty bad in some parts, hope it's not gonna happen again.

Also Tiziano has the best design out of the two so naturally he has a shit stand: like Hermit Purple kind of bad.

Abbacchio being shocked by Narancia was funny and we have a kinda nice cliffhanger ending even if it's clear that those two baddies aren't gonna matter in the slighest. Also Giorno is too OP to be in real danger here, after the snake crap he pulled before it's clear that nothing is gonna kill him.
