| To think, this is just an appetizer for what's to come. I'm so proud of DavidPro giving this part the love it deserves. |

| Oh wow!! I really like the extra screentime for La Squadra! I've always had a fondness for them but this was much better handled here than in the manga imo, as it makes them feel less like individual one note villains and more like a group/the villain family trope as they're supposed to be. Melone's lavender hair really caught me off guard lol I prefer his blond hair but the lavender makes him look pretty cute. It was a great episode, David Pro seems to be really in touch with what the fans want and they've been delivering pleasant surprises. |
| I really hope La Squadra get a few more anime only scenes of them as a group as to make them seem much more like an antagonist group rather than a set of monster of the week villains |

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 |
| The way Sorbet died is unique I must say, but didn't I see this in a shity movie named "The Cell" Who copied who? can someone confirm this? |

HereticHunter said: Great episode. This fight was really thrilling in the manga, Narancia's Stand power was revealed. Hobgoblin2099 said: I was expecting Narancia's backstory today, not La Squadra's. Or the butcher, for that matter. What a pleasant surprise; almost that whole episode was anime only content. La Squadra's backstory was real nice, it gives a glance of how menacing Big Boss is, which is good because he lacked that in the manga. At this rate The only way Fugo is getting fixed is if DP animates Purple Haze Feedback |
| This episode was so well-done, the La Squadra entrance was epic and their backstory was well thought out. Imo the build-up of how dangerous the boss is made it epic. 5/5 brutality |
   smell of coffee songs of sleep  |
Yeah that would be fantastic, even only doing like a half episode summary of it, but I'm not getting my hopes up. |

FunnyKira said: Wow the best JoJo episode for this season for sure. Really liked the La Squadra backstory. no it isnt :| .... how can you compare it with torture dance episode??????!!!!! |

Hobgoblin2099 said:  Illyricus said: Holy fuck, I didn't expected the show to introduce the Assassination Squad as a whole at this point. That flashback is probably my favorite part of the episode. |
 |
| An episode that focuses more on Narancia. Cool. Formaggio showed up this episode and I actually kinda like his personality considering how chill he is. I loved the flashback scene when the boss killed those two usless characters and tellling people not to mess with him. Lil'Bomber is gonna rekt some thot next week. |
| |
| Finally had the opportunity to catch up on JoJo today and I have to say DP have been killing it this season so far. All of the additions they have made have only made me love Part 5 more (although I do still wish they had animated Trish's initial outfit). The flashback was simply fantastic. I love that the Execution Team is getting more time to shine, as it better sets them up as a rival force to Team Bucciarati. Sorbet and Gelato's executioners were also a pleasant surprise; it makes sense that the boss would send them to do the job. All of the talk about the Narcotics Team we've been getting gives me hope that we may see PHF animated too (please David Production, we'd all be grateful 😎). Look at everyone at that table; they knew exactly what was going through Melone's head there. |
 |
| Man, Part 5 must be David Production's favorite part because the love and care it's getting is ridiculous. I love, love, love the anime original content here, and think it greatly improves part five and it's certainly more effective than what Araki did imo. In the manga, we really only got the Sorbet/Gelato bits, with none of La Squadra detailed here and personally, that really only serves to A. Give a brief glimpse into the motivations of La Squadra but mostly B. to highlight the power of the Boss and the risk of betraying him. But in the anime? Well, it still provides those two but it also makes La Squadra immediately feel like an actual group of characters rather than a gauntlet of Stand users to mow down (like everyone in say Part 3 sans the few recurring ones), seeming them interact and establishing some personality quirks (Pesci & Melone in particular) is a great way to both hype up eventually encounters with them but again, make La Squadra feel more like a unit of people which in turns makes what happens to Sorbet & Gelato a lot more effective, since we're now privy to the facial reactions of the crew during the discovery of Sorbet. Really great addition, and it's something that I really do think help enhances the whole of Part 5. As for the Little Feet fight itself, it's a lot of of fun. I really love the decision this fight makes to put us in Formaggio's perspective, it's a really cool way to make the fight feel different and introduce us to Aerosmith's abilities. This fight is one of my favorite in this part, primarily for what's to come but we've also seen a good deal why I love it, and that's the way it incorporates the environment. One of the best elements in JoJo's is that there fights are often geographically contextualized, it's not just the abilities that decide the battles but the landscape themselves play a major role in determining the outcome. No part of JoJo better utilizes the environment than Part 5, which as a whole, has the best fight construction of the series, and I'm really excited for next week because there's a lot of fun stuff coming up. |
| That expansion to La Squadra's backstory was really good. I liked how they teased It's really adding to the depravity of them all, while keeping them true to the manga. |
 |
| That was a little more tense than I was expecting. Sometimes I forget how violent part 5 actually was, lol. |
  ♡ Harder Daddy ♡ |
| Amazing episode!!! I already know what happens next, but it's really creepy how they animated the body parts with little to no censorship. Gonna be even brutal in the BD version!! Next please! |
| he could've just shrank in the first place before revealing himself and just followed Narancia :') |
fluffsnake said: he could've just shrank in the first place before revealing himself and just followed Narancia :') That's what he did, but then he became impatient of Narancia purposely losing time and so decided to torture him. |
|
| I dreamed about this episode for 17 years xD I forgot did they show the whole body pieces in manga or not Kinda disappointed they didn't in anime I guess it's too much "Everytime i close my eyes i wake up feeling so horny" I guess someone got turned on by Narancia, that dude looks like a lady xD |
"Signature removed"   |
fluffsnake said: he could've just shrank in the first place before revealing himself and just followed Narancia :') Well, there IS always the possibility that Narancia could have detected him with Aerosmith in transit. They sent him specifically because of his CO2 radar, after all. |
nah it's adapted the way it is heck DP doing superb adaptation on this parts with adding lots of stuff and shiet |
 he takes what he's lost and discards what he's won, he's every bit as alive as you and I |

One would assume so, since that was his job literally XD but what if he would've gotten carried away... bc Narancia :^) |
LiedElfen said: MakoChoppo said: No there’s going to be a lot more eps this season I think winter starts in january so i think there wil only be the two or three episodes left for this month. That’s still the same season |
"Whether doing good or evil, I will be the boss." |
| Watching Formaggio desperately trying to escape from Aerosmith right after the tables turned was pretty intense. Despite their personalities, especially Narancia's, they're both quick thinkers that used clever tricks that were only made possible by their abilities. The idea of a deadly warplane just looming overhead searching for you and waiting to shoot you down, never to leave your side as long as you breathe was already terrifying enough but that warplane sound just made it more unsettling. It would've been the end of it but he reverted back to his original size right on time to minimize the damage oof. Reading the comments of the previous episodes made me excited to see La Squadra but I didn't expect that they'd have this much exposure time in this episode and it was great. If that Little Feet assassination scene with the car's an anime-only addition, I'm so amazed because it was super brutal. Formaggio crushing that lady along with the politician might've made that guy a bit upset but I have the feeling he's the type to just like the legs and the legs alone. Sorbet and Gelato's horrifying deaths were exactly why you shouldn't get on the boss' bad side and the preserved butchered parts were so grotesque that I personally think that they really shouldn't have taken the opportunity to overthrow him even if it showed itself right in front of them. |
 |
| the fight coninues on and we see more in depth of it |
 |
| Damn! This season has to be the most brutal and savage JoJo yet. Also, some weird looking characters in this one. First Polpo. Now Pesci. Pretty fascinating season of JoJo overall. My interest is a lot more piqued than it was back in the early episodes of Diamond is Unbreakable. |
| I loved the new scenes with La Squadra! |
| This was easily one of my least favorite fights in the manga, and I still wasn't a huge fan of it here, but it wasn't nearly as bad. At least there's that. |
 |
| Narancia has the coolest stand so far |
 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| More of Narancia's mission? Cool! But La Squadra's backstory stole this episode. If the boss is this Part's main villain, which is very, very likely, then we could see how menacing and ruthless he is. Narancia also proved he might be uneducated, but he has ability to think out a solution to problems he encounters. Too bad the map of Europe showed in this episode was... well, a bit from the future, lol. The action of this show is set in 2001, so seeing Montenegro on the map that could be even dated to 1999 ("2 years ago" information) really pierced my eyes, haha. And some countries had awkward borders (i.e. Poland). Apart from that, this episode was great. I love to watch Aerosmith in action. :) |

| Nothing like taking a swim through sewage water. I'm surprised the rats didn't attack him. |
 |
| That assassination squad looked pretty formidable! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| So after I binged the fuck out of part 3 and 4 in a mere couple of days, I finally reached Part 5. The start was pretty decent but I still felt like my expectations were not reached. To be quite honest here my expectations were insanely high since Part 5 was the reason I started JoJo in the first place. I saw some key visuals and some of the character designs and I also heard the opening song (Fighting Gold) and immediately fell in love with it. I knew I wanted to watch this. So it saddens me quite a bit that I feel a little underwhelmed so far. Not really sure what to think about the main, and some of the side characters. Narancia and Mista have super boring stands to be honest. Story has been the strong point so far but everything as a whole still feels lackluster as of now. The fight between Mista and the other guy on the truck was actually kind of boring and the same goes for this fight. Kinda weird how they revealed all of the assassin group members so easily. Really missing Josuke and Crazy Diamond right now. Crazy Diamond is by far the coolest Stand ever. Well I really hope that things will pick up later, so far this is decent but it does have the potential to become better that's for sure. |
| The hitman's punishment is pretty cruel, too bad they didn't learn anything seeing them trying to kidnap the boss his daughter. |
 |
| Most shonen anime would just show things in the pov of the protagonist, about how he's struggling with the enemy and how he came to a conclusive plan to finally defeat him. Always like that. But JoJo does it different by showing the pov of the bad guy as if to say that the main character sometimes have the upper hand and it's the bad guy who has to come up with a plan to win. I love how this episode is a roller coaster. |
 |
| Great battle for Narancia, Little Feet stand is interesting too |
 |
| hmmm so The Boss is a scary person. Hoping to see more about him |
 |
| Damn battle was pretty good, And its always great seeing thugs betray each other. Just shows how shit a organization is. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I wonder if Naracia is gonna shrink so much that he disappears |
