Fantastic finish, on pretty much every level. I don't think this tops The Grateful Dead as my favorite JoJo fight but it's definitely within my top five/ten. Easily my favorite arc so far in Steel Ball Run.

Really surprised we got a minor antagonist with a stand ability involving time manipulation. Usually that type of ability is reserved for the main antagonist of each part.

I wish this mini arc never ended, it was THAT good. It's good to see another time manipulation again & Ringo was such a good antagonist, this fight was final battle level.

Epic Duel! Ringo is the best minor villain and this is the best minor villain fight in JoJo.

Holy shit. Gyro, that was some quick thinking. This was a battle of ideals as much as a battle of wits - Gyro and his idealistic, more enlightened viewpoint that craves knowledge and a civilized course of action, versus the cruel and opportunistic outlook that thrived in the West. Welcome to the true man's world, Gyro, where it's kill or be killed.

R.I.P. Ringo Roadagain, you will be remembered as the first awesome antagonist in SBR.

Poor guy, he was raped when he was young.
Gyro is a true man now.

Ringo is now my favourite minor antagonist. He’s the first villain to almost kill Johnny and Gyro, receive a in-depth great backstory and a overpowered stand ability which is usually reserved for the main villain.

I loved Gyro’s development too

I loved Ringo the backstory was great and kinda felt bad for him. His stand was amazing though as time manipulation is considered to be the greatest power (the world, king crimson). it was a short arc but definitely one of the most epic fight. Also his stand looks like a octopus :3


I want you to be happy.

Marvelous finale of such an awesome arc. I agree, this is one of the best arcs among all JoJo Parts.

Ringo died like a boss and Gyro won extremely hard and wicked battle of nerves by being able to focus and calmly calculate how small details might be overlooked by Ringo and how they can be used to defeat him.

Indeed, Gyro Zeppeli joined "the True Man's World".

having this as background music made it even better:

ringo was a very interesting "minor" villian with a surprisingly very powerful stand-ability.

Damn thought Ringo would have a bigger role with that backstory and that OP stand ability, R.I.P.

Gyro goated in this fight.

Didnt expect to see a time themed stand user that wasnt the final villain nor that such a character would had showed up so soon, that said this arc was great with how it put in prespective this two ideals (gyro's and ringo's) and how Gyro growned as a character after this clash. Really good and impactful chapter.

Ringo had it tough throughout his whole life but he was glad that he had awakened another person's conviction to kill to survive even at his final moments. While it was a shame to see him die as quickly as he showed up, he was an integral part to Gyro's development as a person as he tries to free himself from his father's will.

Welcome to the True Man's World!

Damnn this fight was fucking amazing everything abt it was amazing. Ringo had a really tough past and he was still an amazing person and minor villain. One (if not) the best fights in JoJo i really really enjoyed this arc, amazing! Gyro amazing like always.

Absolutely fantastic finisher to what is probably my favorite Minor Arc in JoJo. Up next... Green Tombstone... Oh lord not again...

Amazing development of both Ringo Roadagain and Gyro Zeppeli. Truly feels like Gyro has changed a lot since the start of the race.

this manga just upped its game tenfold with this true man's world arc, unbelievably well-paced fight with a fantastic villain, and gorgeous art. Gyro's got a lot of growth from this, my favorite chapter so far.
