This is an upgrade compared to the first installment of the long-running series - Phantom Blood. The protagonist is funnier the story fights are on way higher level and overall the world that was built is more interesting. We travel a bit around Europe to see Italy and Switzerland but also other places like US and Mexico. There is a lot going on in all of this places. The way Nazis were portrayed is very funny, too. Stroheim is one of my favorite characters of this part.
The story about stone mask and becoming the strongest being in the world isn't that particularly complicated or
...
sophisticated but for this format is is just about fine. I wish there was more complexity in next parts but this is yet to be seen. Other than that the main protagonists are a bit bland. It is purely let's get three badass guys and fight with them. There is no personality to Wham or Cars or AC/DC. Naming enemies with band names is also interesting pick and adds a bit to the sauce. Some of their attacks are interesting but I can't see this series going so far without introducing stands. Hamon in itself was quite simple and could not create too many new options for interesting and captivating fights.
This part is definitely better than the first one. Can't wait to read what the next ones are going to bring to the table. Recommend to all fans of JoJo!
