Am I the only one who started to reduce my jacket's zip on a daily basis like Giorno? XD
Also, this tweet killed me "in the first arc of vento aureo giorno can drive fine and even did taxi work at the airport but in the white album arc he talks about how he can’t drive very well because he doesn’t have a license meaning that when giorno joined passione he just lost all of his fuckjng braincells" Last edited by Mad Pierrot; 2018-12-14 at 15:04. |

Really glad we get even more focus on Narancia and his character this episode. Got to know more about his family and past although it wasn't pleasant to see.
The battle in the present against Formaggio is as intense as I had expected to be. I'm actually quite impressed by how Formaggio's VA managed to amplify his character's personality in this particular episode. David Productions also made the epsiode pretty thrilling in particular the fire scenes.

Nice episode. This flashback was more interesting as we got to see a better side of Bruno when dealing with the poor kid. The finally got to the fight's ending and a big change to the status quo. Wonder if we'll explore Trish in of the next episodes.

At this point it should be clear Bruno is the real main character. He's the one the others revolve around. Giorno is just kind of there.
Since he's the only one who hasn't gotten his turn, next episode should be about Fugo.

So the implication was that Narancia's mother died because his father beat her, right? They didn't say it outright but that felt like what they were getting at and why Narancia hated his dad so much (aside from the fact that his father obviously didn't care about him at all) .
I wonder if the "bro's" suggestion of Narancia dyeing his hair was a genuine comment that turned into a means of framing him or a long-term plan . I liked Fugo being the one who found Narancia on the street and took him in, basically. It explains a lot about their relationship . We also get to see more of Bruno's style as a "gangster." He sees a kid on the streets and, rather then turning them away, offers them food, shelter, and a chance at a good education. He's also completely aware that the life of a gangster is not for the faint of heart . Figures Narancia would pull out a win by basically blowing everything up . Quote:
Giorno seems like the type who silently assesses what's going and then chips in when he feels like he needs to, like he did at the end when everyone was giving Narancia the third degree. Like Jotaro if he was a little more sociable . Quote:
Even Josuke wasn't as much of a plot driver compared to, say, Hayato, Jotaro or even Koichi in my opinion.

I like the cast but their outfits sure are weird. Fugo's pants barely hide his legs for example. Wonder where Araki got this idea for the clothes. Well, most of the Diamond Is Unbreakable characters had high school uniforms so I guess Araki wanted to a more original take on clothing with Part 5.

Episode 12 showed some flashbacks for Fugo. I think that was something new in the anime that wasn't in the manga. Pretty neat tbh.
Glad to also see a Stand like Man in the Mirror making its presence too.

Now that I think about it, isn't the mirror world just a common tale in Japan? I mean, there was one anime named Ghost Stories that used this for one episode. If you don't know about it, Ghost Stories sucked so much in Japan that the English dub completely changed the script to include fourthwall breaking jokes, racist jokes, two-timers, etc. Search for that in Youtube for a quick laugh.
