I know I personally really liked the hunt for Jotaro's disc when I read the manga, it usually is evolving and more and more is being learned up until the end of it. Although I am curious how you feel about the overall story so far. It's neat I think.ДЄlthough a lot of stuff can only be fully discussed later, so ultimately I think you're on a pretty average track for a third of the way into Part 6. He's doing his absolute best to live up to DIO's legacy and follow it through, but he's far from being DIO. The way he sees his underling come into the room as a complete mess and he just quietly goes back to counting prime numbers is really charming imo. The scene with him at the gate where he just starts counting prime numbers to calm himself down solidified him in my mind as a great character personally. I really like how Pucci is pretty much a human trying to be a DIO-type, but he's just a normal guy so he messes up and panics sometimes. I'm honestly curious how you'll feel at the end of the part.ДЄnd Pucci is one of my favorite villains, but what you see of him in these 12 episodes isn't a ton. I can see how that can make her feel a little less interesting though if that's why you're not feeling her. I like Jolyne being a bit more of a jokester JoJo like Joseph and Josuke, but still having flashes of Jotaro when she gets serious. I don't know about not liking the characters though. I definitely think the later fights should be interesting to see though, some of my favorite stuff is in the final third. It doesn't help the prison setting can make them feel a little samey. It's not bad, and I think some of the stands are cool, but they can be kinda forgettable. With that said, I agree a lot of the earlier fights in this part fall into kinda being 'see the power for 15 minutes, then punch the bad guy at the end'. I personally like the fights in this first bit more than I expected to, as a manga reader the Marilyn Manson fight never stuck with me, but I really dug it in the anime.
