Someone asks you what JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is about
You show them this screenshot
BTW I may suggest skipping the next episode and watching ti along with Ep. 8, mainly as the episode hardly has any major impact going forward. It's fun for what it is but some may feel it as filler.

Finally, Echos is released.
Good episode. Felt about as compact and light as the manga chapters. Good job on David Pro for making this series stand out in a big way.

I think no anime adaptation would make Part 7 the justice it deserves.
Please, prove me wrong, DavidPro.

That was a perfect adaption! Great episode from start to finish !
The best part is that I don't really remember this part very well till the final chapters so I don't know what the episode will be about for the most part.

Something that they sadly didn't do (which is a shame since they did the same with Iggy's changing from ugly dog to weird person dog) is that Tamami's appearance changes from the beginning of his appearance to the end of the fight.
Koichi beat him so hard that he shrank.
(This also happens with another villain, who goes from Josuke height to Koichi height, but there it was separated by a lot of chapters to the point that if you forgot his name you'd be like, "Who is this guy???")

Araki really loved using that hair texture in DIU, didn't he? Josuke, Okuyasu, and Tamami all have that texture in their hair.

I disagree completely. The Surface encounter does quite a lot over a very short period of time. It's kind of a showcase of Morioh and the way Stand powers and Stand fights evolve in Diamond Is Unbreakable.

Honestly looking consistent is just fine for me, i mean Tamami's size difference is really stupid. Maybe i'd argue something different for specific parts but having standardized sizes for the characters makes it look less like" quality animation" we are used to in low quality anime episodes.

Koichi's stand is hella neat. I wonder if part 4 will be a one-man show with Josuke beating everyone or whether Okuyasu and Koichi have some good fights as well. That was my main gripe with part 3, as both Jotaro and Polnareff would have all the good fights and Kakyoin and Joseph only 1 or 2 memorable ones at most. Advol I don't even remember if he had an encounter where he made a difference.

So the power to repair things, the power to close the gap between things, and the power of sound effects which can seemingly influence people on a subconscious level. The main cast has a nice variety of powers which could lead to a lot of fun scenarios.
I'll admit I still prefer part 3 because I liked the set up of globe trotting adventure to get to Dio more then shenanigans in a small town. Having said that David Pro every season cranks up what I'll call the jojo style another 10 notches and part 4 really stands out visually because of it. At the end of the day it's still JoJo and the whole thing is just fantastic and DavidPro is the perfect studio to adapt it.

Loving the variety/weirdness of the stands.
I think it's the feet that gets me the most in that pic. It's like Araki completely forgot that people's legs end in feet, so he rushed back and did these rough little ovals to compensate.
I still consider Gyro the main character of part 7, even if focus shifted to Johnny as the part went on.

You would be right to think it in all honesty. Gyro is the perfect representation of jojo. He's completely bizzare but is as equally fabolous.

Oh god, loved this, I didn't know Koichi could have this kind of attitude, I'm excited to see him more now. I didn't expect him to get a deeper voice, either, lol.
I liked Koichi alright in the manga, but I feel like he's so much more dimensional than I really gave him credit for.
Man I really loved the beat that started bumping when Koichi hit his mom with his stand. Being animated really does his stand justice.
Man I might have to get around to watching the first three parts. I haven't watched anime in a long time, but Part 4 of Jojo has always been my favourite and I couldn't help myself.

His original version looks more menacing. Also, the Lock looks very different from the anime.

Really great anime adaptation of Echoes.
Also "Show Off". Really?

From what I've heard, Araki's art (at least for faces) evolves into all looking very similar as the series moves forward. Does anyone think this presents a problem in adaptation of further seasons? Is the art such that David Pro would almost have to redefine the way certain characters look themselves?

I doubt it'll present too much problems.
I mean, Jotaro is a fine example. He looks different here than in comparison to Part III, but he still manages to look good.

I imagine how the characters look in the fighting games will hint at how they'll look in the anime.

Excellent, excellent. These guys are doing an amazing job adapting the manga.

The guys behind All Star Battle manage to do so with out deviating a lot from their original artstyle(s) just fine for the parts in question. So no, they'll be fine.

Cool, I'm glad to hear it. I'm loving this series so much, and I'm avoiding the manga because this is one of those where the colors and music choices are adding so MUCH.

Episode 6
That was a very tightly paced episode. I didn't expect them to get The Lock encounter done that fast. It was nice seeing the fight animated, and I think David Pro did a great job adapting a power I wasn't sure would translate well to the screen. I also laughed a lot more than I expected to; the voice acting is really improving the show.
Can't wait until Surface.

Best episode of Ace Attorney so far.
Quite a great episode, amazing pace, Koichi voice change was perfect, and I'm loving Koichi theme.
This was the one thing that disappointed me during this episode, noticed it right when he showed up "Uh, wasn't he supposed to be huge when introduced before shrinking down?"
Same here, this episode made me appreciate Koichi a lot more.
Just stick with the anime, no point reading the manga now after waiting until adaptation started.

If you're bored, read part 1-3.
Small trivia:
This is a reference to real-life restaurant chain Jonathan's where Araki and his editor use to have meetings. The restaurant is also where the name Jonathan Joestar comes from.
don't you mean best Pokemon XY episode?
Koichi's VA is also Citron there. it was so funny watching the jojo ep and then watching a pokemon ep.
