----------------------------------------
So the fight against the Pillar Men begins.

It's nice to see Jojo and Caesar taking the fight to them this episode, nice. Pretty good episode again imo. I felt sorry for Jojo getting beat up like that. I liked watching Wham this episode as well. Dat dynamite eating and ring.

Ah Jojo, he had me laughing the whole battle from being ignored by the Pillar Men to messing with Wham's pride. The part that had me on the floor though were the wedding rings from AC/DC and Wham that they put on Jojo's heart and throat to execute him if he can't kill them in a month X D

Oh and it's awesome how they're using different parts of Roundabout! Since they have 8 minutes of song to choose from they can use different parts to match the tone of the ending

Rings:
I hope he does not have to defeat 2 guys in a row by himself - that would be damn hard.

Ending: WTF is this, I see them trolling.

Ep overall: nothing really interesting happened here. I feel like they abadonded good quality of this anime few eps ago...

Damn, I can't believe how enjoyable this series is. Incredible episode, absolutely loved the music from the preview being in the fight against Wham. Also is that dubstep I hear during Wham's sandstorm move?

Did not expect those binding rings at all. My jaw dropped when ACDC binded him as well, talk about overkill. I would be feeling pretty awful if I was in Jojo's shoes right now. But hopefully, he'll wear his purple outfit with the scarf in the OP after his ripple training.

I cannot wait for the next ep. The preview is too exciting! Lisa Lisa, the woman from the OP I think, looks stunning in those fabulous few seconds.

WTF? Why would the have poison ring with attitudes on their piercings? And how exactly are the set for the necessary time they need them too?
Also why did the second guy put a ring in him? That's very unfair if he expects Jojo to fight him after winning against the first guy. He plays the all great immortal and he wants to fight a guy that will be tired after fighting one guy already?

Also lol at the coward moments and having the announcer doubt if he should be the hero of the story and shit.

I prefer gg subs just for the international terms and slangs they add to the script. It gives the "international" feeling for the show and not making everyone speak in American when they are not American in the first place. The series is set in the real world with multiple nationalities and not in a made-up world, you know?

I know I'm probably in the minority here but this episode just felt really "meh" to me; Wham showing off his Sandstorm power was cool and all but the pacing and the animation for the rest of the episode just felt off. Some of the pacing issues trace back to the manga I know, but at the same time I think they should've made the "you will bleed out in a minute" bit less specific.

In any case I can't wait to see Lisa-Lisa make her debut next week, so all should be forgiven then :-D.

Yeah because American is totally a language. I do get what you mean about including Caesar's Italian phrases and it does have its charm, but the main problem with that is it makes the translation feel a bit inconsistent at times.

I enjoyed this episode. Although I am not much of wrestling type of person, but the Narrator commenting on Joseph cowardice was hilarious. It has that type of vibe.

Narrartor: I DON'T BELIEVE IT! THE GRANDSON OF THE BRAVE GENTLEMENT JOHNATHAN JOESTAR IS RUNNING AWAY LIKE A COWARD! OH WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO SPEEDWAGON AND CAESAR NOW, THAT JOSEPH RANS AWAY?! BUT WAIT! WHAT IS THIS?! WHAT IS THIS INSANITY JOSEPH'S! THIS IS INSANE!

Joeseph: THIS ISN'T COURAGE! THIS IS A SCHEME!

JJBATAS wrestling reference would be nice.

As another poster noted, the pacing and animation quality was a little lower this time around. Still, the week's JJBA episode was overall good as usual. Joseph trying to play dead to fool Wham was pretty damn amusing.

I actually switched three groups. Started with Nutbladder, then saw gg and now watching MMM, I think I have finally found a group worth the show.
