It just gets better and better. Araki mentions using these characters as a way to explore his own uncertainties in life, and it's done in the most JoJo way possible. This is absolutely chaotic, but also very moving. What do we inherit and what do we choose for ourselves? This theme comes up over and over and I'm deeply invested.

This is getting so good. The stands have such interesting powers. Can’t wait to see how this race ends.

“Welcome… to the true man’s world.”

This is by far the best book in the series so far. Ringo Roadagain is one of the best antagonists in the series, and provides the greatest direct threat to the protagonists so far.
