Jojo's bizzare adventure

I'm still working my way through Part 4. I'm finding it kind of boring after the awesomeness of Part 3. It just feels like the plot has gotten sidetracked, and there's too many characters that don't really do much of anything after their introduction. There isn't the sense of urgency or adventure that was in the first 3 parts, and many of the characters are kind of boring. Josuke in particular is disappointing. His Stand is cool, but his personality is just kind of there.

Does it get better after the Highway Star battle, or should I just skip straight to Part 5?

Part 4 anime is the worst imo. Shitty animation, weak pacing, fights are meh. Surprise that people seems to love this more than part 5

Part IV is actually a great part but I can see what you mean.

Basically, the first 3 parts were all shounen while from Part 4 Araki starts taking a turn towards Seinen.

Also, I think Kokichi is more of a protagonist than Josuke and that is what araki intended it to be. However, I think Part 4 is better than 3 overall. It has one of the best antagonists in JoJo and the entire setup is perfect for the whole part.

I'd like to hear your review when you are donw with it.

The art style is just better

That's kind of why it's good though.

Part 3 is super boring until Egypt comes. Part 4 has a feeling of fun SoL with Stands that it's unique as far JoJo goes.

Part 5 is better, Part 4's only saving grace is Kira

How could Part 5 possibly be better with that ending

OP read the manga unironically, it's more charming.

Just skip to the parts with Kira. You'll miss literally nothing.

Just wait for Koichi to stop taking up screen time and the introduction of the actual villain.

Bring back muscular JoJo. And wtf I love Part 5 but it's literally flying by way too fast. We are on Episode 35 of 39 it's almost over

Better pacing before hand. There's little downtime between fights which is a good thing

Which also means there is no time for character development

I don't think Character development is araki's strong point.
Besides, part 5 takes place over the course of a week and this is about teenagers who are in a gang.

You can't develop something from nothingness, user.

Why do people dislike part 4 now?

People don't dislike part 4. Just the first half of it.

It's weird, the DiU anime had such amazing directorial and color choices throughout its run but the actual animation was all loose and kinda ugly rarely staying on model
Your choice as to whether or not one is worth as much as the other

>Part 4 dub comes out
>Everyone starts to post about how much they hate part 4 even though it was seen as among the best parts before

>MC barely has a stake in the main plot
>Characters are underdeveloped and underutilized, more characters keep being added to the cast and they never get fleshed out
>Relationship development is minuscule or happens off screen
>Setting is underutilized, Tonio's restaurant could have been a recurring backdrop for the cast to come together and chill and exchange information for example
>Despite the cast coming together for Shigechi's murder, it's all just for show
>Incoherent, tone deaf story
>Main villain is downright stupid and has dumb motives

Hot opinions, man. Here's a (You).

>>Main villain is downright stupid and has dumb motives
Well who's YOUR favorite Jojo antagonist user?

>dub comes out
>new shitposts
dunno why i never noticed this. part 4 has been my favorite so far, so i was a little curious why there was an influx of people shitting on it.

Kira and Killer Queen are by far the best reasons to finish part 4.

Part 4 does most of these things better than the previous parts, so you must not like Jojo very much in the first place

At least we'll be on Chad Ocean soon.

D4C is awesome but Funny Valentine himself can fuck off.
Honestly worst villian.
Im also. Big Johnny and Gyro fan so.

Pucci

>after the awesomeness of Part 3
Part 3 was 80% garbage.

This
Part 3 almost made me drop the series
Part 4 made me love it again

>Not realizing that Kira, Valentine, and Pucci are the 3 best Jojo antagonists

>amimeonlys bandwagoning on whatever the most recent part is
If you aren't current on the manga you should not be posting in these threads.

FACT OF LIFE

Linear fast-paced storytelling isn't Araki's strong point either, as evidenced by the complete mess that is part 5.
So maybe it shouldn't have taken place in under just one week?

Dio>>>>Kira

I'm waiting for part 8 to end before i read it. I only read it up to Vitamn C

>I don't think Character development is araki's strong point.
It is which is why Part 5 fails.

But user, muh themes!

>I'm waiting for part 8 to end
>But I read 50 chapters in

>I'm a retard and I want everyone itt to know

anime clearly shows what an garbled trainwreck part 4 is
