This Part is weird to rate because the first 20 or so episodes are just villain of the week again. This is something that been happening with Jojo since Part Three and it’s pretty unfortunate because I think that’s the biggest thing holding Jojos from being a great anime in general.
I still feel the same way about the characters here from my other Stone Ocean review, I like Jolyne a lot as well as Father Pucci. Jotaro and Ermes are also pretty good. The rest of the cast are decent characters, aside from Narciso who I still didn’t enjoy too much.
The animation and fights were still top notch, it’s just the fact that in typical Jojo fashion, it takes quite some time to get to the great stuff. I personally felt the prison arc went on for way too long.
But once we’re past that and we get m…

It's just as good as the first part. It's just next enjoyable jojo part. I could be better if the middle part would be better paced. It was in some moments repetitive and I wanted to story go on. But characters in this part a really well conducted and many of them have a character development. Stand are mostly good, and I had fun to see how main characters will defeat them. The best part is the ending, characters take risky options. Main villain, Pucci is awesome! It's genius idea to make a priest main villain, and I feel that he hides his secrets, and his reason to what he's doing, so this makes him even more interesting. Overall I don't have much to say, it's next awesome jojo part. Only the middle part could be better.

The middle section of Part 6 improves significantly on the first dozen episodes. The section at the Ultra Security Wing is when the story really gets into gear. It gets VERY brutal though, much more so than any other part up to this point, particularly during the Planet Waves fight.
The fights themselves are still great. Planet Waves, Dragon's Dream, Green Baby, and Jailhouse Rock are all bangers. There are some low points, too, though, with Yo-Yo Ma being one of the lamest Stands so far.
I already liked Jolyne and she gets a lot better here, her relationship with Jotaro is developed a lot more and her bond with Emporio, which will be very important later on. Pucci keeps getting more interesting, more is shown of his definitely 100% platonic relationship with DIO and his plan for "heaven…

Oh, Anastasia, the man that you are.
So, I think I came into this with the understanding that most people believe the middle stretch of the Stone Ocean episodes are the weakest, and while I enjoyed this section a smidge less than the first, I still had a ton of fun!
Episodes 13-24 shift into more of a Part 3-style monster-of-the-week formula, which, to me, has always been classic JoJo faire. Now, the monster-of-the-week stuff isn’t usually my favorite, but I thought the Stands here were pretty interesting (even if they didn’t always make the most sense)!
More importantly, however, we finally got the chance to meet and explore Anastasia’s character, which I have been waiting for. Anastasia is exemplary of my favorite type of JoJo character—a highly beautiful and problematic man that i…

"Stone Ocean", the sixth part of "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure", has been a real letdown for me. As a fan of the series, I was hoping for something that could match the charm of previous arcs, but this feels like a filler arc gone wrong. While "Diamond is Unbreakable" was also somewhat of a filler, it worked because it expanded the JoJo universe, bringing in colorful characters and a vibrant sense of Morioh’s world. Stone Ocean, on the other hand, feels hollow and fails to build on the universe in any meaningful way.
Hirohiko Araki seems to be running out of steam, focusing too much on introducing new Stands to shock the audience. But this gets old fast. The Stand battles are overly complicated, bogged down with mechanics that are more annoying than engaging. The constant introduction of Dio’…

Very impressed, Pochi reached the critical point, and we learned how he obtained MADE IN HEAVEN due to Dio's dream and will.
With Jolene, Ermes, Emporio, as well as the weather forecast and Jotaro's return to his normal state.
In 14 episodes, we will witness one of the strongest masters—no, one of the strongest unleashing powers!
The thing I'm most excited about before starting the seventh manga, Steel Ball Run.
The characters in the part are average, the story is very good, and so far, if it weren't for Netflix's method, that was the only problem. It should have been 38 without division.
But the last part, but not the last. We continue the masterpiece.
July 23, 2025 8/10 Done.
After finishing this part, there was nothing left but the end.

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean, Part 2, or rather, the second batch, is the continuation of the sixth Part of Jojo's Biarre Adventure.
With the batch release, Netflix really killed the hype and was single handedly killing the name of Jojo's in the Anime market. It took nine months for the second bacth to come out and it was horrible to wait so long.
To put it short, the release was a disaster.
But was the Anime itself a disaster?
Well, let's see and join me on my review for the second batch.
Story 9/10:
After securing Star Platinum's disc and giving it to the Speedwagon Foundation, Jolyne get's sent into the disciplinary wing of the prison, after Ermes killed Sports Maxx, the killer of Ermes' sister.
The priest Enrico Pucci, who knows the Heaven Plan now, through Jotaro's memory d…

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure stands, in my opinion, as the greatest manga I've had the pleasure of experiencing. Stone Ocean is its conclusion in the original continuity as well as in the Shōnen Jump magazine and for the shōnen demographic. It might feel strange to consider, as the battle shōnen genre is so integral to Jojo's, but Stone Ocean presents a shift so profound that it arguably transcends the genre, growing far too complex for the audience of its original publication.
Whether this transition was well done or not is hard to say, but this is where Jojo's truly begins to surpass its initial form. However, it is undeniable that the constraints of being serialized in a shōnen magazine somewhat weaken it, limiting its potential in significant ways.
With that said, let’s delve into what S…

Really expected a lot more from this considering how good the first batch of episodes were. The action scenes were much less gripping. The characters' stupidity spoiled many action scenes. Their stupidity was on par with slow reacting characters in a horror movie who could easily avoid death but don't move and save themselves. Still, I found myself continuing to watch the series due to my trust in the series. I trusted it would get better the next 12 episodes, and it truly did. Avid JJBA fans (which I am not an avid one) would still enjoy the full series, its humor, and characters.

This is more-so an outburst of my complaints towards Araki and JJBA rather than Part 6 itself, but these problems still apply to Stone Ocean. The concepts and ideas around JJBA are so sick, especially the Stands, but it never really taps into its true potential as a story. Araki consistently creates memorable characters with goofy, outlandish character designs, but they quickly become bland and out-dated because of the lack of change and purpose. Creating quirky characters makes it hard for the audience to immerse themselves when those exact characters are so completely unrelatable and impersonal, completely devoid of realistic human traits. This specifically is a problem rooted to JJBA antagonists as a whole (maybe with the exception of Kira); unrelentingly evil and tunnel-visioned, incap…

JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Part 6: Stone Ocean Part 2
It has been torture to wait so long for a single part, but at least it was worth it, right? The second of the three parts is about the continuation of the fights in the prison and eventually the escape. More new bizarre fights, new stands, and chaos. This part of the season is worse than the first but still manages to entertain barely. It only becomes particularly appealing in the last 3 episodes.
Content-wise, this season is limited to 3-4 small fight events and the conclusion of the Prison Arc. It's nothing great and you can hardly say anything about it, as a single part hardly comes into value. As an overall show, you could say more about it.
The character arc of Ermes was pretty monotonous and boring, practically the new version o…

This review applies to the whole anime from beginning to end, even the last batch. Because unlike Netflix, I will write this review as it's supposed to be and not part it up arbitrarily. Also I'm keeping it spoiler free, so don't worry
So after a long wait, the Stone Ocean anime finally blessed us with it's presence. And boy was the wait worth it. Overall, it's more of what we've come to love with the JoJo anime by David Productions - they captured the artstyle of the manga really well, the animation is fantastic, the voice acting and music knock it out of the park and they stayed faithful to the source material while improving it in subtle ways. Also for me personally, this was my first time watching an anime I've read the manga of and it was really hype seeing all these epic moments spr…

Since this ONA series has been divided into several separate entries (whatever the reason was to treat this series like that), dedicated for one batch of episodes each, I won't be repeating exactly the same words about the same aspects of this show, unless this batch of episodes had certain element or elements done worse or better. That's why I will assume that you, dear reader, have already read my review of Stone Ocean Part 1. If not, then I highly recommend checking it out. It might be easier that way to fully enjoy reading this review's content and fully grasp my point of view.
This review, just as my previous one, is spoiler-free.
Without further interruption, let's go!

I am now deathly afraid of how the Steel Ball Run adaptation is going to turn out. The second batch of episodes manages to mostly capture the energy, wackiness and bloody violence of the first batch and more, but the way this part has been handled is seriously one of the biggest displays of incompetency I've ever seen in this medium. Aside from the mass release of episodes killing weekly discussion and hype, Netflix didn't even bother to add in a recap in episode 13 despite it being NINE MONTHS since the last episode, and made no efforts to promote this release in any way. If I didn't see a reminder on the JoJo subreddit I would not have remembered that it came out.
Story - With this batch, I am reminded why Stone Ocean wasn’t as interesting to me as the other parts until after the priso…

Stone Ocean part 1 was my first JoJo season because a friend recomendation and after it I watched all the previous ones in a few weeks. It kinda makes sense on it's own, but watching the previous ones makes the story and lore easier to follow as it follows the story of a family generation after generation.
This installment follows Jolyne Cujoh, a japanese-american teen that ends up imprisoned after her now ex-boyfriend blames her of a fatal car accident that wasn't her fault. Everything changes when her absent father, Jotaro Kujo, visits her and reveals the family secret.
Characters
The character dessing is wonderful. No two characters look alike and it has an extravagant take on 2000s fashion. Accompanied with the over the top facial expressions and poses, it makes the show really fun…

After such a long wait you would expect it to finish with this part but no it just had to continue and leave us with a to be continued.
Although with that being said I did enjoy it. The animation mixed with the mystery and soundtrack really had me invested into the story.
I did enjoy the new characters and stands in the many fights in this part. I did feel like the story was kinda dragged a bit to a certain point.
But in the end it mixed well and we got a good 12 episode part so I’m not mad.
Now we gotta wait a few months for the next part and that’s the only thing I hate about it honestly.
I do recommend watching this.

Stone Ocean is back! What does this batch of episodes have in store? Greatness. That is what lies ahead within the prison walls of Green Dolphin Street. Many people are attracted to JoJo for a variety of reasons; whether it be fights, artsyle, pop culture references, music, memes, story, or the characters. The second part of Stone Ocean has all of those.
We kick off with a battle taking JoJo back to it's horror roots, combined with a short but wonderful revenge story. We then enter a series of back to back brawls where the creativity of the abilities is Araki at his most experimental- and they work very well. Along the way the interactions between characters ends up being more BIZARRE yet this nevers soils the severity of the situations at hand. Towards the end of these episodes, Jolyne f…

Guess I'm reading the manga.
My patience has reached its limits and it's clear Netflix doesn't handle this IP with care.
Although to be fair this part was somewhat good, it got me somewhat emotional and the music is obviously great. This is by far Araki's most unique work and the narrative is pushed all over the place. If I were to shed criticism on this it would probably have to do with the basic formula. Jolyne finds someone to fight (Usually with a partner) and whoops the bad guy's butt. Also, Get ready to be weirded out big time and confused at the stands because the conditions kinda make sense but also don't. Finally, I just got to say, Enrico is such a cool antagonist. Maybe my fave Jojo villain now.
To be honest, it is hard to put this part into words, I'm writing this on a whim.…

Oh man, where to start with this?
Whilst the release schedule for this anime has left many fans feeling irritated (I mean after the first batch dropped, we were left waiting for nine months), it's undeniable that the content itself is great.
The fights in these twelve episodes were well done, and would leave anyone at the edge of their seats. The emotional moments were enough to make me shed a tear or two. We also got to see a lot of character development, that was really well done.
The technical side of things were also really amazing, in my opinion. The art style, as always, is unique but bold and creates a lasting impression in your mind. The music was also amazing, and I know I'll be listening to the soundtrack as I eagerly await the release of the next part of this season.
Overall, th…
