this is one of the best anime I have ever seen. Diamond is Unbreakable is one of two choices (please read Steel Ball Run) for Araki's magnum opus, and the adaptation is an improvement in practically every way. gorgeous, fluid and expressive art; phenomenal scoring and sound design; tight pacing, removals and additions to really refine what is already a masterpiece. it's an affirmation of life in both its themes and its execution. I cannot stress enough how good this is.

I hesitate to call it my favorite Jojo part (Phantom Blood 4ever), but it's certainly the most free-spirited and unrestrained, delivering "holy shit wtf am I even reading/watching" moments one after the other. David Production's adaptation of course continues to be utterly fucking miraculous. Truly a beautiful Duwang.

This part is interesting in that it expands and explores the concept of stands, but not gracefully. A lot of solid plotlines are dropped and ignored, the willingness to forgive absolutely heinous people makes no sense, The filler can be just outright bad, and the narrative doesn't have any direction until around the halfway point. But despite all that, there's still a lot of creative powers and fights that at least maintained my attention, and the groundhog day finale was good shit.

Probably my favorite part out of the ones that have been animated

CUT-ABOVE

The first half is a bit slow, introducing characters etc.; the second half is intense and addictive. Excellent tension and battle scenes, with great characters.

Completely insane and ridiculously enjoyable. Araki really lets loose with the crazy fights here, but compliments them with an amazing cast of characters. You really get to know Morioh and the lovable weirdos that inhabit it. Araki even manages to take what could have been a lame author surrogate and made him into one of the best characters! Kira is a great villain too: he doesn't desire power, but rather only a quiet life. David Production continues to deliver an excellent adaptation.
