Jojolion is probably going to go down as the most controversial part of Jojo. It has the most complex part of Jojo by far and therefore has the most missteps of any part by far. There are quite a few plot points that are "dropped" throughout the story of the part and while some people won't mind that, some will.

There are also some other story decisions, espcially in the later half, that are GOING to be a deal breaker for some people.

Not only that, but it was also the first jojo part that was released monthly with the western audience so there was a ... HEAVY level of scrutiny and theorizing throughout the parts run which warped people's view of the part when things went the way they did.

AND THEN it also came after the inarguable most loved and praised part of Jojo in the west, part 7. So going into it expectations were super high.

I personally think the good outweighs the bad but that is only if you have a certain mindset going into Jojolion.

Jojolion is a story about identity and purpose through the eyes of the main character, Josuke. It's his story. If you buy into his story and journey, and look at the entire part in this way, I think you will like Jojolion.

Jojolion has some of THE HIGHEST highs in the entire series while also having some of the biggest, inarguable, flops, and I say this as a 100% jojolion and Jojo apologist. That's why it feels so much worse for some people when the things that have been problems throughout the series rear their head in the worst possible way in this part of Jojo, even though nothing about araki's writing style has changed.

It's a 10/10 at what it tries to do but if you were expecting something else it will feel much worse.
