Jojos blu ray came out and there were a lot artistic changes made.

A lot of the faces really bothered me in part 1, so it's nice to see that they're cleaning them up for the Blu Ray.

I'm pretty impressed on how far Jojo has come from his training even putting a challenge against spoiler[Cars]. I just hope that he and Caesar will make a fine tag team against the remaining two of the Pillar Men.

Episode 20

spoiler[The bit about Caesar's past was interesting.
Wham was pretty impressive.
His powers are unique and he knows how to use them.
The battle between those two was just awesome.
I was kinda surprise Wham was honorable.
Shame about Caesar, but his last deed was a truly noble one.]

Manly tears and sorrow were spread this episode. Oh yes, I will miss spoiler[Casear] and his efforts against spoiler[Wham] in that fight.

Terrific episode. Even Lisa Lisa is sad Anime cry

Agreed; another great one. I accidentally got spoiled because I forgot it airs a few days late where I live. Oh well, it's not like what was coming hadn't been telegraphed all over the place anyway. Even in the OP, you can see spoiler[Jojo wearing Caesar's headband.]

I was happy to see the first arc when it aired, but this second storyline is a huge improvement, which surprises me, since so many people say it's part III is where it gets really good.

Episode 21

spoiler[Jojo and Lisa Lisa meet Wired Beck, the vampire.
Lisa Lisa sure took care of him quickly.
Those two found Wham rather fast.
Cars army of vampires was quite impressive.
I was surprised Wham and Cars accepted to fight them one-on-one.
Lisa Lisa finally shared some secrets about her past.
Can't wait to see that race next time.]

Episode 24
Finally, some of the truth regarding spoiler[Lisa Lisa] came out. So tragic and that huge misunderstanding by the military ..

The fight in this episode was good too. Take that Cars! spoiler[Jojo nailed it with his strategy imo. That cliffhanger was wow. I had no idea that Cars had the stone mask on till the end as well.] Damn.

Oh StBROheim, why do you make me feel so confused?

These last few episodes have been amazing, David Production really nailed it with this adaptation. Animation's a little shoddy, but the brilliant visuals make up for it and the music and voice acting have been consistently excellent.

Apparently there's going to be some sort of announcement with episode 25. Fingers crossed for Stardust Crusaders in Fall 2013!

Cars really put Jojo between a rock and a hard place.
Never would have guessed spoiler[Lisa Lisa is Jojo's mom.]
spoiler[Stroheim] had his hands full as well.
All in all, Jojo was holding on rather well.
History about spoiler[Jojo's parents] was interesting.

I had fallen way behind on JoJo (as I had with every other title) and I'm slowly getting back up to speed. Just finished watching episode 20.

*sheds some uber-manly warrior tears*

I'm in love with Lisa Lisa. My biggest LOL moment over the last few eppies I've seen was JoJo spoiler[tripping the cat] in eppie 19, I believe. Loved how afterward, he said he should stop doing stuff like that because it was "kind of dickish." Laughing

Anyway, sorry to see the discussion of this fine show seems to have dropped off. Oh well.

I'm still following this show regularly and it's still pretty much the most enjoyable show this season after Problem Children ended. However, I can't really find anything discussion-worthy other than "YEAH LOTS OF AWESOME STUFF HAPPENED!" lol.

On a side note, I entertained myself by looking at the early posts in the thread about how someone thought they could predict the show start-to-finish after the first episode. That was pure gold.

With this season coming to a close in the next couple weeks, people are eagerly awaiting the most hyped story arc of the franchise next. I can't wait to see it for myself.

Episode 25

spoiler[Car's new powers were really impressive.
Guess becoming the ultimate being has its benefits ^^"
He's pretty much invincible..
That's doesn't leave Jojo with many options.
It's like his new form just keeps adapting to every kind of attack.
Stoheim proved himself to be useful once again.
Wonder if that volcano will be enough...]
