For me, David Productions never managed to represent the quality of JoJo in anime form; this time the problem is much bigger than usual. I really liked the source for part 6; it's actually one of the few "longer" manga I've read in less than three days. As much as the result of Part 5 was excellent (far above the fanbase's expectations), Part 6 left much more to be desired... and some of the issues were:

Jolyne's characterization was terrible (both visually and va), Ermes extremely (and excessively) strident, dragged dialogues to take more screentime (this time was really excessive), scenes of very poor visual quality ... across the entire season (reminds me of DBZ Super beggining), extremely bland coloring, choppy scenes... Part 6 represents everything I never liked about David Productions' production of JoJo, but more prevalent than ever.

And, despite it all, it was ok. Putin as probably as good as Yoshikage Kira, him accompanied by the good ol' vampire friend resulted in the best scenes of this season. FF was as good as it was in the Manga. And then, the final arc was produced with as much dedication as possible; visibly because they wanted to make the ending of this part unforgettable for the fans, especially given its importance to the franchise... and really delivered something of value. It's felt really weird to me because I really wasn't enjoying until very later in the series.

Meanwhile there are people discussing if this is relevant or not, based on their personal agenda of being the classic weaboo, this show gets more and more popular reaching even the mainstream media due to the highly qualified animation and its outstanding "non-sense" humor.

Some people just try too hard to evaluate every single episode and expecting to be entertained because its "supposed" to be this anime's job. But guess what? It's not.

Summing it up about whats Pop Team Epic: it's a big mock from the Japanese Media to themselves and their costumers. You probably wont get most of the jokes because they are not ... about you, but you could relate somehow like myself (and probably some of you), as a integrated person in japanese culture.

Its basically an anime that episodes lasts for 12 minutes and has two versions; whats the difference between them, just watch and discover yourself.

Just try it and see if you can have fun with it, if not, it's fine either way.
