Like I said the last fight looked great but most of the episode was dragon ball super levels of quality but I'll drop it since it seems I'm alone in thinking this.

Nah you're not wrong. People just think "shit" is a hyperbole. Again it's impressive it even looked as good as it did considering there was only one person working on it.
The background art and coloring is among the best out of all the episodes so far.
Animation-wise it was lacking, but the look was still on point.

I mean, opinions and everything, but I'm struggling to see how anything was Dragon Ball Super levels. Even if the animation was more still frame than usual, it was at least consistent in the few frames it wasn't and the art was good more often than not.
I've been watching One Piece for years and this was never Toei levels of bad at any point
Toei has QUALITY in panning still images that last for 30 seconds, I can't find it but there's a picture of a zoomed in shot that then zooms out to show the entire landscape or something, and that character's face is off-model even at the close-up shot. It doesn't zoom out and then become off-model.
Toei is the worst of the worst, it's entirely inaccurate to say this is Toei levels of bad.
It could be worse, for long-awaited manga adaptations continuing beyond a certain point we could've ended up with Berserk quality and an Enigma Boy that's no longer dark-skinned.
You're not wrong. It wasn't good. But there are multiple levels of bad. Nowhere near Dragonball Super, especially the first fight against beerus on kaio's planet. Or the stuff that carries the name berserk.
Considering the situation they did a great job. It never detracts from my enjoyment in this series. It is noticeable and with this episode a bit more than otherwise.
Anyway if you think it's shit that's fine, but gimme the bad stuff

What do you folks consider to be the most fearsome stands. Notorious B.I.G. certainly is up there for me.
It also raised an interesting question: when people develop stands, particularly those through the arrow, do they know what their power is, like instinctively? I know Koichi had to learn how Echoes worked, but with a stand that activates upon the user's death, how exactly would they know?

Notorious B.I.G.

See none of those are particularly powerful or strong but at least when you get killed by The World or King Crimson you'll just die instantly and not an excruciating and long death.
Besides the major antagonist Stands?
I wouldn't have expected a Stand named Vitamin C to be very menacing, but that motherfucker is one of the most fearsome Stands around. Green Day was pretty nasty, too, as was Metallica (making someone vomit razor blades is sick).
And yeah, Carne had to have known what his Stand did, even if only because the thing whispered in his head. I like to think Notorious B.I.G. subtly overpowered his will so that Carne would actually be willing to die - not to the same extent Holly's Stand overwhelmed her but sort of like how Cheap Trick can erode someone's willpower through enough exposure.

Cheap Trick is a good one too.
And, I was asking about any stand, really. I recently finished Notorious, and thought of how creepy it was the whole time.

Baby Face creeps me the hell out. Conceptually, It's almost too much for me.
Part 5 works a lot better in the new translation because they have actual personalities now; like how Giorno isn't really a stoic like Jotaro. Imagine how bad Part 4 would be if the characterization was removed, when Part 5 relies on characters as much as Part 4 does.
Vento Aureo will be fucking great as an anime.

The scene where Naracnia swims to the boat and joins the gang to betray the boss will be great animated T_T .
and the metallica fight.
and the crimson king time erase effects.
and the buccellati zipper effects.
Part 5 animated will be amazing.
Most of my compliants with part 4 are gone with the anime and a century has passed so I'm more prepared than anime only watchers.
I could never afford to reread it even with new translations.Just kept reading after part 4 got interesting. In a mere weeks I was up to date with part 7. Crazy rush.

All I got from Giorno was that he's really calm, composed, and virtuous. And also pretty stoic. His extreme composure made him a little boring to me. What has the new translation added to his character?

What? Even at its worse diu is better animated then anything in sdc. It's not exactly got a high budget. Iirc dp are very tiny and run on shoe string budget. Those dvds don't sell that great.
Watch Da Birdie
I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
The train fight animated...dear god I cannot wait for that.
Well we have to see how Highway Star goes before we know whether or not to worry about that fight.

Sex Pistols are the greatest Stands ever.

Sex Pistols is pretty hot fire.
Sex Pistols are funny, but Echoes Act 3 is the funniest stand I've seen so far. He swears viciously in English lol
Just finished up Part 5. Ending was... weird, but overall it was a good series. GioGio is an awesome character and it was cool to see (spoilers)
again
I love how many stands and characters are named with music references

Seems like Joushuu is being cursed by a stand thats like...a mix between Hey Ya! and Harvest? I have no fucking clue. JJL is so weird.

The new chapter is amazing at making Joshu look like an even bigger asshole. And then he just keeps doubling down on it.

I just finished the point after Notorious BIG and Doppio's intro where
.
I realized I actually really like part 5. It's a lot better than Stardust with far more interesting stands and characters. I really hope DP animates it.
Also, I wonder how Viz is going to release Diamond, because the end of part 4 and beginning of 5 share a single volume in Japan, right?
Abaccio is killed. A really sad moment, but I loved the afterlife/dream scene at the restaurant
