Honestly, I think I liked Part 2 and Part 3 better, just because the villains are way better. Sure, it's unfair to compare him to Dio or the Pillar Men, who have absolutely insane powers, and maybe it was better to have a more grounded villain after those, but I did feel like the ending was a tad underwhelming. It's not a bad Part, there's a lot of charming elements and characters, but Stardust Crusaders and Battle Tendency just had more I enjoyed overall and ended in big ways.
The next one I feel could be more interesting with a quick glimpse at its location and main character, so I'm hoping for things to pick up when that happens.

Part 5 is Japan's favorite so I can see David Production really giving it their all with it. (Assuming we get an adaptation)
kamikazekeeg:
I assume we will see it continue, I think it's been doing good for them, but you never know. I hear it gets ridiculous later on, so I really hope they continue on. Sure, I could read the manga, but to me, Jojo is a show that is far more style over substance and looks better in motion than on the page.
azure:
Yeah, the ridiculousness never stops when it comes to JoJo. You're in for some pretty bizarre stuff if they keep the adaptations up. I think DP does a great job adapting JoJo, while adding some additional story, aside from some of the animation messes we saw with Part 4. I gotta disagree with JoJo looking better in motion, it's a discredit to Araki's style. I believe it comes down to more of a preference, like you said on how some prefer too see something in motion than panels on a page.
I assume you don't know much of later parts by your wording. So what did you think of Part 4's shift in artstyle, from the more manly Fist of the North Star style from the earlier parts?

I probably like the show the most around Part 3, but I didn't mind the style shift at all. I think it still looks pretty good as it is and I really loved the extreme color shifting they had with this one. It kept everything very visually exciting. As for what I meant about in motion, I've seen manga shots where clearly that glorious art is way better, for very specific scenes, it's definitely one of the better looking manga's I've seen, but still overall, I want to see the flurry of punches or hear the voices calling people out, things like that sell this show way more to me than simply reading the manga.

Had the idea that Getsuyoubi no Tawawa was already over because at MyAnimeList the webpage that I use as a reference to know when an Anime will start and when it will finish they have this one with the status Finished Airing but yesterday when was looking for some gifs saw some new animations that have never seen before, didn't took me that much to know that they lied or were wrong so don't have to say that already have seen the episodes 13th and 14th, am glad that this one is still going on, it's a series that obviously have some Plot but the kind of Cute one with a silly history, dumb characters so it really deserves a chance also and because of this started to watch SoniAni: Super Sonico The Animation have seen the first three episodes and really have to say that am not disappointed, was expecting to see Plot of Sonico's boobs every damn minute but I was completely wrong, it does have a story a silly one but still entertaining, definitely will continue with the rest of the episodes ;D
