A mismatch of expectations made this a bit troublesome to enjoy。 The gruesome body horror has been cranked up to 11 in some places, and while I can certainly handle that sort of thing, I didn't see any of that in Part 2, so I wasn't prepared for it。 I'm also a bit bummed at how much the author seems to like this Jojo so much more than in the past, because Jotaro has hardly any personality--he is a solitary tough guy and that's about it。 I miss Joseph。 A mismatch of expectations made this a bit troublesome to enjoy。 The gruesome body horror has been cranked up to 11 in some places, and while I can certainly handle that sort of thing, I didn't see any of that in Part 2, so I wasn't prepared for it。 I'm also a bit bummed at how much the author seems to like this Jojo so much more than in the past, because Jotaro has hardly any personality--he is a solitary tough guy and that's about it。 I miss Joseph。 。。。more

This series just went from bizarre to horror because I was not prepared for Ebony Devil or Yellow Temperance。 I don't like creepy dolls and I don't like blob monsters that eat you alive。 Evil bugs that rip out your tongue is one thing, but I draw the line here。 Nope, nope, da nope nope nope!Jojo and crew get on a boat, trying to get from Japan to Egypt, but are waylaid by multiple stand users who work for Dio。 (view spoiler)[The first stand is a fish monster called Dark Blue Moon。 Jotaro wins。 T This series just went from bizarre to horror because I was not prepared for Ebony Devil or Yellow Temperance。 I don't like creepy dolls and I don't like blob monsters that eat you alive。 Evil bugs that rip out your tongue is one thing, but I draw the line here。 Nope, nope, da nope nope nope!Jojo and crew get on a boat, trying to get from Japan to Egypt, but are waylaid by multiple stand users who work for Dio。 (view spoiler)[The first stand is a fish monster called Dark Blue Moon。 Jotaro wins。 They destroy the ship and force Jojo and crew into lifeboats。 The second stand is mistaken for a rescue ship, but it's actually a stand called Strength wielded by an Orangutan named Forever。 Jotaro wins。After finally making it to Singapore, Polnareff encounters Ebony Devil and barely manages a win。 Then Jotaro fights Yellow Temperance who disguised himself as Kakyoin。 Rero rero rero rero rero rero rero rero rero rero rero rero。。。 please stop。。。 it's gross。Jojo and crew then board a train and are on their way to India。。。 for now。 (hide spoiler)]Part 3 - Stardust Crusaders has 10 volumes。 。。。more

No as crazy/insane as the last volume but still very enjoyable。

Julia

Not exactly a review of this volume but: I really love the concept of stands。 In most Shonen the protag and antag fight each other with swords or fists and the battle is drawn out because they have the same strength/ability, etc。 In JoJo some stands seem way more powerful than those of the protags, so they have to use strategy to defeat their opponent, which makes for an interesting read。

We started the volume by Polnareff joining the group and finished by discovering that Kakyoin was a traitor all along, or was not he? That what you will enjoy reading at the last two chapters。 Rubber Soul against Jotaro is one of the best chapters of the series and the whole cherry thing XD。

Jessica Quino

Although this volume contains my least favorite part of the series(Strength), it also contains my favorite Jotaro moment。 Where he tricks the Captain into revealing himself as the stand user。Yellow Temprence is also a really good arc。 It contains one of the most bizarre and iconic and disturbing moments of the part。 Jotaro is also great at being Jotaro, the akward and stoic character that he is。

Katsuro

Good as always。

Muy fan。 Me copa que el protagonismo se divida entre varios personajes。

Increíblemente de un volumen a otro, la serie de Jojo cambia de tono radicalmente。 Si bien la adición de los stands a los combates de Jojo le hizo bien a la serie para mantenerla fresca, y la actitud de Jotaro lo hizo resaltar entre Jonathan y Joseph, no prevenía que todavía vendría un cambio más en el tono de la serie: la violencia se eleva radicalmente hasta volverse gore a ratos。Este tomo me gustó mucho porque por un lado tenemos a Jotaro enfrentándose contra dos stands muy diferentes, Polnar Increíblemente de un volumen a otro, la serie de Jojo cambia de tono radicalmente。 Si bien la adición de los stands a los combates de Jojo le hizo bien a la serie para mantenerla fresca, y la actitud de Jotaro lo hizo resaltar entre Jonathan y Joseph, no prevenía que todavía vendría un cambio más en el tono de la serie: la violencia se eleva radicalmente hasta volverse gore a ratos。Este tomo me gustó mucho porque por un lado tenemos a Jotaro enfrentándose contra dos stands muy diferentes, Polnareff se enfrenta a otros dos y la violencia escala exponencialmente。 En este volumen tenemos desmembramientos, caras rebanadas, canibalismo, mutilaciones, etc。 Todo ilustrado gráficamente。 Hubo varios momentos que el arte y el tono que adopta el autor para mostrar cosas que son impactantes pero que parece que a los personajes de la serie se les hace normal, me recordó mucho al mangaka Junji Ito。 Página tras página no podía más que asombrarme y maravillarme por la atrevida decisión que el maestro Araki tomó para su serie。En el apartado narrativo tenemos un poco más de crecimiento en los personajes de soporte como lo son Kakyoin y Polnareff。 También tenemos un buen momento entre Abdul y Polnareff en el que podemos ver cuáles son los motivos de Polnareff para estar con Jotaro y compañía。 Los personajes de esta saga, son los más atractivos e interesantes a mí parecer, si bien Speedwagon de Phantom Blood y Caesar Zepelli de Battle Tendency me gustaban mucho, Jotaro y Polnareff, además de la presencia de Joseph de viejo se me hacen los más interesantes。Entiendo que Stardust Crusaders es una de las series más largas de Jojos, pero no me imagino cómo se podría alargar tanto, en cada uno de estos tomos dobles se enfrentan a varios Stand y se van acercando a Dio de manera rápida。Si bien algo que no hemos visto y creo que es crucial para el desarrollo de la trama en los siguientes tomos es que Jotaro entrene en el uso del stand。 Nos queda claro que por ser un Joestar tiene el talento y las habilidades para controlar el Hammon y en este caso el stand, pero tanto Jonathan como Joseph tuvieron que entrenar con un maestro para adquirir el potencial de sus habilidades。 No sé si ya vimos al maestro de Jotaro en estos tomos, pero la figura de Joseph podría funcionar como un parte de la trama más que como un recurso narrativo de nostalgia。 。。。more

Solid volume of this super fun series。 Mostly its a showcase of various stand ideas, all of which are pretty entertaining, with solid fights pertaining to each。 Not much of an emotional core here, mostly a bunch of rad stuff happening without a huge amount of story progress or character development。 Still a lot of fun to read, and Araki's action is great。 Solid volume of this super fun series。 Mostly its a showcase of various stand ideas, all of which are pretty entertaining, with solid fights pertaining to each。 Not much of an emotional core here, mostly a bunch of rad stuff happening without a huge amount of story progress or character development。 Still a lot of fun to read, and Araki's action is great。 。。。more

Enemy stands get weirder, the crew suffers a loss, random little girl shows up and is mostly unremarked upon。Jotaro continues to be a jerk fawning over how he's really a sweet boy。 The stands are less connected to the meanings of their cards。 I wonder if that's going to be the way it is going forward。 Enemy stands get weirder, the crew suffers a loss, random little girl shows up and is mostly unremarked upon。Jotaro continues to be a jerk fawning over how he's really a sweet boy。 The stands are less connected to the meanings of their cards。 I wonder if that's going to be the way it is going forward。 。。。more

JJBA is an epic example of shonen manga, in that it’s characterized by high action, humorous foils, and is driven by male protagonists。 In Part Three, we have the Stardust Crusaders: Jotaro, Joseph, Kakyoin, Avdol, and Polnareff。What sets JJBA apart from other shonen manga is that at the introduction of every new arc, the author changes the main character。 Just when you’re getting attached to one character and one scenario, he jumps ahead ~fifty years and changes everything。 That’s quite a darin JJBA is an epic example of shonen manga, in that it’s characterized by high action, humorous foils, and is driven by male protagonists。 In Part Three, we have the Stardust Crusaders: Jotaro, Joseph, Kakyoin, Avdol, and Polnareff。What sets JJBA apart from other shonen manga is that at the introduction of every new arc, the author changes the main character。 Just when you’re getting attached to one character and one scenario, he jumps ahead ~fifty years and changes everything。 That’s quite a daring gamble to take, but I’m floored by how flawlessly he pulls it off every time。 First Jonathan, then Joseph, now Jotaro, and currently five more after that, and you end up loving all of them。 It’s like he doesn’t even have to try。 No matter who he creates and how different they are, you’re going to root for them。 If I had to say there’s one downside to this arc, it’s Polnareff。 I hate him, but I love hating him, so it’s okay。 Stupid Polnareff。So in the last volume, we had an air battle, and in this volume, we jump into extreme sea battles, mostly featuring Jotaro。 If you ever think you know what’s coming in this series, you’re wrong。 All you can predict is that it’s going to be unpredictable。 。。。more

Public library copy。The most popular storyline from J。J。B。A。 continues and in typical manga marketed toward males it's action packed with constant videogame like boss battles。 Public library copy。The most popular storyline from J。J。B。A。 continues and in typical manga marketed toward males it's action packed with constant videogame like boss battles。 。。。more
