[Radwa · Rating 4 out of 5]

- a superhero entrance!
- it always amuses me how background characters are almost always ugly ang unflattering compared to the main characters
- read the room and choose your timing, anastasia!
- the brief mention of rohan kishibe reminded me that I need to read his spin-off.
- let's throw time travel in towards the end, because why not?
- what a bizarre way to end this part. almost like we're resetting?

Best part of JoJo in the first six, such an amazing ending!

[Deacon Wright · Rating 5 out of 5]

The ultimate conclusion to the greatest chronology of all time. Physical editions of Steel Ball Run comes next month and I cannot wait.

Re-read. Easily one of the best Jojo parts in the series. Araki’s art and storytelling reaches new heights in this part which culminates in probably the best ending in the whole franchise
