| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- ..and we got a stream in the end! The episode was great: The music was amazing, the last scenes between Jonathan and Erina were beautiful and although they didn't fix the coffin scene (manga readers will know what I mean) they ended the part perfectly. And in the end we even got a glimpse on what awaits us in the next part as well as Sugita's Jojo voice in the preview. Get hyped. |

| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| Episode was great but that last 5 seconds got me so fucking hype! Preview for the next episode was nice, really can't wait for next week. |
| I cant find the stream. |
 |
| This was great. the end is as in the manga. We have Joseph next time. Best anime of year. |
| R.I.P. Jonathan Joestar :( I can't wait how the story will continue~ |
 |
| Damn, heard Sugita's voice in the preview and I'm hyped up already. |
 |
| Oooooh goodness I'm waaaay too hyped for next episode. |
| I can't wait to hear Sugita as Joseph \o/ Anyway, this episode was great, though I feel bad for Erina now :( |
 |
| Oh god the preview for next ep. Just... the preview. |
| Part 1 was great but I just can't wait for part 2... I'm having so much fun with this show. |
| This... I can already tell Part 2 is going to be orgasmic. Completely awesome episode, regardless; complements and improves upon the source material superbly. |
Dangerr said: Agreed. The pacing and directing for the end with Johnathan was perfect; drastically improved how it was in the manga.This... I can already tell Part 2 is going to be orgasmic.

| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| can't wait for Joseph's Trolling :D |
Next Week! |
| Not going to lie, I would turn gay for Joseph. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| come on, it is better looking on Lisa Lisa. |
| Good night, sweet Prince. Also, dat Sugita as Joseph. |
| I don't know anything about JBA, and holy shit this episode punched me in the face. So stoked for next episode! |
 |
| Thus ends part one. And it was AWESOME! Also perfect ending to this episode, showing Santana. Can't wait for next week, I'm so hyped. Mod Edit: Removed quoted part because it was a huge manga spoiler without spoiler tags and the user who posted it originally removed the post himself. |

| Freaken Epic episode!!!! Jojo RIP...u were a true man! I felt bad for Erina...but she's really a strong woman. Sugita will be the MC!!! CAN'T WAIT!!! |
 |
| Regarding the plothole: Also, wonderful episode. The final scene and the teaser gave me the chills. |
 |
| Fitting end to Jojo and Dio I say. I must say David Productions knows how to toy with people's expectations, they were heavily hinting that Dio was going to take the priests body and use that to kill Jojo but no he was just some random passerby who got his head blown off. Can't say enough how dramatic the deaths are in this show, a civilian had a life preserver thrown at his head but it makes his head explode? okay lol : P It sucks that Jonathan in the end was doomed to die with Dio but it was well done especially the pause saying "Jonathan Joestar has died". Can't wait for the next arc! |
| /Speedwagon mode I am weeping convulsively upon witnessing such a paragon man! Such love, even in his dying moments he thinks only of his loved one's future! Such friendship, even with his last breath he holds on to the head of his rival, who conspired his ultimate demise! JoooJooo!! |

 |
| Stunning end to Part 1, Jojo was a true man until the end and saved a newborn life. |
 |
| Great end to part one. Jonathan was such a gentlemen, it sucks that he got such a shitty end but oh well. Part two is going to be so awesome. |
| Thoroughly loved how DP has adapted Jonathan's tragic end on screen. Sad to see Jonathan go (in more ways than one), but I'm super excited to see Broseph!! |
| it was way too sad how Jonathan died :( cant wait for next week |
| wow this is cool |
| No word to describe the awesomeness of this anime! I'm going to miss both Jo Jo and Dio. I think they were two coffins because Wang Chung should have one also I think, because I don't think he would have the nerve to share Dio's even if he was only a head. |

| And so ends the life of Jonathan Joestar, who died protecting those whom he loved from his own adoptive brother Dio. Full of regret that he was unable to change the fates of them both but inspired by being able to save the love of his life in his final moments, he leaves this world content with his sacrifice, dying a death of a true gentleman. As much as I generally dislike Part 1 (particularly because of Jonathan being fairly dull as a character), I love the ending so much. Kudos to David Production for capturing the atmosphere perfectly. With that out of the way, it's time to meet Joseph, one of the best Joestar's, in his own bizarre (and vastly superior) adventure. |
 |
| From episode preview, the next part sounds and looks very cool. |
| |
| Absolutely fantastic episode all around, probably the first one I have absolutely no complaints about. Though that's largely because I absolutely loved this particular chapter as well and found it pretty ballsy that they would kill off the protagonist like that. I agree that I wish the coffin scene would have been fixed, though. Thought for sure they would have. Definitely looking forward to the awesome Joseph Joestar who has a suitably awesome seiyuu. I'm looking forward to Battle Tendency in general, though. Boltz said: /Speedwagon mode I am weeping convulsively upon witnessing such a paragon man! Such love, even in his dying moments he thinks only of his loved one's future! Such friendship, even with his last breath he holds on to the head of his rival, who conspired his ultimate demise! JoooJooo!! I've got to say that that is a scarily accurate depiction of how Speedwagon would describe this episode. |

| well, I know where the got the idea for the ending of Ninja Scroll now. great episode. |
| Ahh, that episode and them feels. You do have to give credit to Dio as he's one of the most persistent characters out there and he just keeps on trying and trying with that charisma of his. |
| 1st time I got expose to the Jojo franchise and now I wonder why I haven't start sooner! My favorite anime of this year! Really can't wait for the new arc of epic proportions and manly tears of pain & joy !!!!! |

If I was to say just one noun involved in the finale of it, your mind would would explode before it could perceive it!1st time I got expose to the Jojo franchise and now I wonder why I haven't start sooner!

super_manga_fan said: Johnathan Joestar technically did a flaming "Sho-ryu-ken" to Dio (...) did this inspire ken's move? Probably not. There are older manga/anime than JJBA that had the main character doing a Shoryuken. For instance, Hokuto no Ken. |

| Street fighter 1 exist in the same year than jojo. HNK exist befoire jojo. |
Raitei said: Holy ****, Tomozaku Sugita! Can't wait. Btw, this is my first time watching this, but I seriously hope that there isn't rivalry between Joseph (who I'll assume is JoJo's real kid) and the child that Erina saved. That would be waaaaaaaaaay too similar again.. Manga spoiler: Mod Edit: Please use spoiler tags for key plot elements or things that haven't been shown in the anime yet! |

| Great episode, nice conclusion to part 1. I can't wait until part 2, I'm already hyped since I heard Sugita's voice. I can easily see Joseph being my favorite character in the series. 5/5 |
 |
| Most manly death ever. |
