Please don't mind my summary lol. I just never taught I'd hear that again after the 1st and 3rd parts of Jojo.
This is my first ever review and I'm gonna make it a teensy bit lengthy 'cuz I got a lot to say. Subsequent reviews, if I'll write any, will be short 'cuz I'm not much of a writer or a heavy critic like most.
So after 4 crazy and equally amazing seasons, (I'll be using season and part interchangeably but they mean the same thing), the 5th season of Jojo no Kimyou na Bouken, (Jojo's Bizarre Adventures, for my English peeps), didn't disappoint at allllllll. What didn't we see; the Stands (they getting crazier as time goes on), the awesome poses (Mah God, I love them poses), the weird camera angles that follow the poses, the poses again, POSES EVERYWHERE!!!!.
Tell me an anime that has more poses than Jojo and I'll call you a liar. Every second is a pose, whether intentional or unintentional. And the funny thing is, there's no way you'd come to hate them poses. No way.
Okay enough about the poses, let's get to business. I'm not much of a technical person, so I'll just talk based on how I enjoyed it.
The animation and art is 9/10 for me. David Productions did another great job with this season as with the previous ones. The typical Jojo art remains faithful throughout all the 5 seasons and I love it. The blood and gore too, as usual, was good. There was more gore and blood spilling in this season compared to the previous ones and I enjoyed it (No, I'm not a psychopath). The animation is something you should watch Jojo for, it's great. Not ufotable level great (Those guys are wizards), but it's very good, especially if you are someone who will drop an anime if the animation isn't good. (I've been using good a lot. Sorry, my vocab sucks).
I'll slot it a little something here, the fashion. The fashion sense for Jojo isn't a normal one, as Jojo viewers know. But Part 5 was just something else. It was bizzare (bad pun XD), but in a nice way. And they fit the poses too.
The story is also a 9/10. At least for someone like me who isn't very critical or knowledgeable about plot and all those stuff, the storyline is a very decent one. The Stands too are getting crazier. We've got Stands that can stop time (Part 3) and now Stands that can skip/erase and reverse time. There's this one stand, Notorious B.I.G (sounds like a rapper). That stand was friggin' broken. Just broken. I wonder what would have happened if that stand actually was the one to take the arrow instead of Gold Experience. One thing though, The creator of Jojo definitely pulled a fast one on me lol.
The sounds and voice acting was 9/10. The first opening "Fighting Gold " was a classic. I loved it. I just loved it. I liked the second opening "Uragirimono no Requiem ", but not as much as I did "Fighting Gold ". The first ending song though, "Freek'n You by Jodeci ". I won't say much, just listen to it for yourself XD. The voice actors too were good. My favorites being the VAs for Giorno, Buccellati and Abbachio. Especially the VA for Abbachio, Junichi Suwabe. If you know Ryomen Sukuna from Jujutsu Kaisen, then that's the same VA for Abbachio. (Ganbare Ganbare, my JJK stans).
Like I said, I'm not much of a technical person and I can't express enough in words, so I'll end here. The anime itself as a whole is excellent. If you probably have watched the previous 4 seasons of Jojo, you'll definitely enjoy this one without a doubt. If you haven't heard of or watched Jojo and are reading this, then what are you waiting for? Go and watch the previous 4 seasons now. Go go go go!! and if you are wondering why I didn't give it a 10/10 (100) after everything I said, then just know I'm twisted that way. inserts evil laughter.
