For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stone Ocean: Ultra Security House Unit (E15 of Part 6). We got a sneak peek of him in the first cour, but now we get a full introduction to Narciso Anasui and his butt cheek. We also get a sentient bone that can bite people, and JoJo characters being meta as they talk about who they think is the weakest Stand.⁠ Join our Discord: https://disco...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stone Ocean: Kiss of Love and Revenge (2) (E14 of Part 6). Ermes gains profound closure in the conclusion of this two-episode arc, while we get less closure of how exactly Sports Maxx’s Stand works. We do our best to make sense of Limp Bizkit’s abilities - as well as spoil a classic 90s horror/thriller film. Localized episode title: Smack of...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stone Ocean: Kiss of Love and Revenge (1) (E13 of Part 6). Stone Ocean is back and it's starting us off with an Ermes arc that gives us an intimate look at her past.

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stardust Crusaders: The Emperor and the Hanged Man, Part 2 (E11 of Part 3).

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stardust Crusaders: Yellow Temperance (E9 of Part 3). We might not be convinced by Yellow Temperance's Stand abilities, but we're definitely convinced that Kakyoin is talented when it comes to a cherry and his tongue. We question many things in this hilarious episode, including why Jotaro lied to that poor kid about his popsicle and how fast...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stardust Crusaders: The Devil (E8 of Part 3). Our boy Polnareff is known for being attacked by enemy Stand users in the weirdest of places, and being attacked by a man in his mini fridge with a doll in his hotel room is no exception. We talk about this intense fight that feels straight out of a slasher film full of blood and gore.⁠ Join our D...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stardust Crusaders: Strength (E7 of Part 3). It's probably the most awkward episode of Part 3. Yes, this enemy Stand user is a very creepy monkey and we talk plenty about that. But we also talk about the eerie horror vibes Araki presents in this part of the story, Jotaro and Anne's unique relationship, and much more! Join our Discord: https:/...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stardust Crusaders: Dark Blue Moon (E6 of Part 3). For this milestone 50th episode, we're reviewing one of the most mid fights in Part 3. But don't worry, what this enemy Stand user lacks in fighting ability, Jotaro makes up in dumb yet hilarious moments that include telling Avdol to "say something," feeling up some tits, and thinki...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stardust Crusaders: Silver Chariot (E5 of Part 3). We get to know every facet of Jean Pierre Polnareff, including his Stand, his backstory, and his personality. We take a closer look at his fight against Avdol and his initiation into the JoBros (which is basically Polnareff inviting himself on their journey to Egypt).⁠ Join our Discord: https...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stardust Crusaders: Tower of Gray (E4 of Part 3). This episode is literally just four dudes fighting a bug on an airplane. But that's the kind of writing that makes JoJo amazing. We break down the beetle fight and get introduced to the one and only: Jean Pierre Polnareff.

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stardust Crusaders: The Curse of DIO (E3 of Part 3). The boys officially begin their journey to Egypt after discovering Holly's Stand has manifested, and the storyline of Part 3 is set in motion. We go over all the memes and drama from this episode, including Avdol's fear of a menacing spoon and the moment Kakyoin becomes the MILF Hunter.⁠ Jo...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stardust Crusaders: Who Will Be the Judge!? (E2 of Part 3). It's the introduction of the cherry-licking, mother-loving, wide-mouth-having JoBro known as Noriaki Kakyoin. And no JoJo introduction is complete without adding a bunch of abilities that we'll never see this character use ever again. But that's ok, because Kakyoin still does some am...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stardust Crusaders: The Man Possessed by an Evil Spirit (E1 of Part 3). The boys have arrived to Strictly JoJo with the start of our Part 3 review series! We talk all about the first episode of Part 3, including Jotaro's hilarious introduction into the series, the new power system of Stands, a change in art style, the biggest plot hole in the...

We read bad reviews of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. Surprisingly (or not) there are some people who really, really hate JoJo. And those people sometimes leave hilariously bad reviews of the anime. So we searched the internet for some of the best bad reviews out there to share with all of you.⁠ ⁠ Plus, we discuss the recent announcement about the second cour of Stone Ocean and what it means for the po...

We discuss the worst localized Stand names in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. A lot of things in JoJo get memed, and one of those things is localized Stand names. Look, we get it. They're trying to avoid a massive lawsuit or having to pay crazy amounts of money for all the rights needed to keep the original names. But that won't stop the JoJo fandom from doing what they do best: making memes out of it....

We discuss iconic sound design in JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. Plenty of anime have amazing sound effects, but there's something so distinct, impressive, and satisfying about the sounds in JoJo that you won't find in other shows. From the sound of Hamon ringing, to the Stand cries of Star Platinum and Gold Experience, to the fart noises of The Hand and Burning Down the House, we share some of our fav...

We discuss our favorite JoJos from the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure anime.

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stone Ocean: Torrential Downpour Warning (E12 of Part 6). It's the climactic moment of the first part of Stone Ocean, and it's full of...poisonous frogs? Jolyne and Pucci are backed into corners as they fight for their lives against the wonders of nature. Also, someone tries to shoot a bird.⁠ Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/4Rnq4GTePP Su...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stone Ocean: Operation Savage Garden (Head to the Courtyard!) (2) (E11 of Part 6). Science is not our best subject, but Weather Report is apparently an expert as he teaches us the effects of zero gravity on the human body in this brutal fight against Lang Rangler. We may not be big-brained enough to know whether the physics described in this...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stone Ocean: Operation Savage Garden (Head to the Courtyard!) (1) (E10 of Part 6). Weather Report joins the team in all of his up-close-whispering, dramatic-hat-wearing, and tip-toeing glory. We discuss his unique character traits, the enemy Stand user who doesn't know how to properly wear shoes, immersion-breaking CGI, and Emporio's fart noi...

For this episode of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, we review Stone Ocean: Debt Collector Marilyn Manson (E9 of Part 6). Araki does it again, turning something as simplistic and mundane as a game of catch into a heart-pounding, intense showdown between Stand users. ⁠We discuss the technicalities of the bet with Miraschon, and chat about recent updates related to the next installment of Stone Ocean.⁠ Loc...
