Eh, that's just what she said.
For all we know the rules behind her stand could simply just be body adjustments + love luck and the specific requirements like the lipstick are up to her.

She got angry like 3 or 4 times in this episode and almost killed Cindarella

It was a good episode for yukako but I'm glad it was completed in one episode. Loving the kira theme that plays whenever he is on frame.
Well Cinderella kinda had it coming at that point.
But at least Yukako was trying to stay away from Koichi for the most part and didn't immediately launch an attack at Rohan when he whisked Koichi away.
I call that progress.

So did Joseph walk around with that baby for the past couple of weeks?
Fun episode and it was good to see Yukako being a little more reasonable when things don't go the way she wants.
This part did make me kinda want a whole highschool anime with stand users.
It was so uncharacteristically anime
I loved it

So Koichi and Yukako are an actual relationship. Usually that's something that happens at the end of a story.
Well does he ever put her down? XD

Basically, Joseph has to babysit invisible baby all day. It's not like he's carrying her 24/7 but if he's not around she starts making things invisible again.

What's with all the body horror this season?

I absolutely HATED this arc in the manga (and there are very few Jojo arcs that I can say that about), but the anime made it tolerable I guess. It really has more to with the context of how this story was originally placed, and say what you will about waiting for David Bowie, but swapping the arcs is MUCH better in the long run.
Also big booo at the translaters not keeping "Kira wants to have a quiet life". It's minor as hell, but that sounded cooler

IIRC they did have to cut some stuff to fit this into one episode. I remember Joseph actually talking to Yukako at one point.
From what I've read "wants to live quietly" is a more accurate translation than "wants to have a quiet life" which is seemingly a lucky accident the Duwang translation did.

Joseph and Josuke see her at a cafe, Joseph tells her about how they just walked past a salon that promises love.

Hmm I did feel there was a rushed feeling to this episode. Jojo works best slow, building up the tension little by little. Gorgeous looking though ~pheww
NEXT WEEK YAY

The rushing was a necessary evil so we can get to finally chew.

I''m suprised they actually hooked up.
I'm far too used to anime protags either being asexual or not getting any/being in a real relationship until the end of the series.

to be fair, Koichi ain't the protag. Josuke is.
Koichi hooking up with Yukako is like Krillin hooking up with 18.
and they're even similar :0

this part is practically half Koichi's bizzare adventure
and dragonball in general is an exception, Goku's a freaking grandpa

Just started...is Cinderella like Tonio Trendy? Look at this fucking idiot Koichi-kun getting diarrhea during a date. So that um..."pose" that Yukako is in on that bed...is that um...canon? I need to know...for reasons. Rohan looks damn fucking good in pink. What a sweet ep. See now, if this was SDC, Cinderella would've just been Ora'd.

Now I'm picturing Jotaro wandering in randomly instead of Koichi, and then it jump cuts to him leaving Cinderella, covered in blood and hair.

The pacing of this episode was lightning fast, Didn't have enough time to detail Cinderella which I think is one of the more interesting non-hostile stands.
I'm drooling for the next episode. The subtitles better be on point.

Without seeing it side by side, I couldn't tell the difference in Yukako's appearance.

I actually thought it was supposed to be a joke or some sort of social commentary.
Or perhaps the salon woman was lying about how Cinderella worked...
But no, they played it straight, and there was just barely any difference besides how Yukako and Cinderella!Yukako were "presented."
I don't even understand what the side effect of breaking Cinderella's cycle "was."
I thought Yukako was going to end up with, like, a black void in her face, but it just made her look like she was wearing a weird mask and needed sleep?

I think that was the point though. A lot of that shit really just seemed to be in her head due to lack of confidence.
"Miss, Polnareff needs some hair gel. Do you have any?"
30 minutes later:
"This hair grease, it only last for 30 minutes, it must be the work of an enemy stand."
"OH MY GOD!! Polnareff, your hair is falling out!"
"Jotaro, defeat the stand..."

Aya's technique works subtle. A slight spacing of the eyes, a raising of the brow, stuff like that.

Yeah that's what I thought up until the end.
Perhaps it's a combination of subtler changes and how we're used to seeing how inconsistently faces are drawn in anime. (Not that that's a bad thing or anything.)

Episode 20
That was surprisingly good. Like it seems was the case with many others here, this was one of my least favourite parts of the Part 4 manga. However, I think DP with the fairytale-like background when Aya appears, along with the voice actors made this so much better. I actually almost cried when Yukako reaches back to Koichi after he shows him her twisted face (Though in the manga, her face was even worse, and you genuinely couldn't tell it was her. See below.)
Koichi is once again showing what a nice guy he is, and it was interesting to see more Stand users who use their power to run a business like Tonio. I nearly spit out my drink when Josuke almost falls out the window, and has Crazy Diamond save him.
Also, so hyped for next week. There must be no other place as pretty as this episode.

At least Aya has a heart though. That's what I've liked about these stand users this season. They're actual people. Yeah you can solve the problem with a punch ghost barrage, but think of how small the cast and Morioh would be after that.

I've said it before but I really do like Yukako and I have no idea why. I loved this episode. The art direction was on point with all the fairytale stills.

Did you see Yukako on that bed? Who wouldn't be thirsty for that?
Of course you are, Koichi. Of course you are.

It reminded me a lot of the sacrifice lady from the beginning of Phantom Blood. Idk if it was a reference or thats just how Araki draws supine women
