The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity

My favourite part so bias but this part is so non stop taking a simular stance as part 3 with "we have to go somewhere in a certian amount of time whilst a group of enemies tries to attack us over that time" but its done in a much more interesting time with way more developed characters that all intertwine with eachother and their backstories all link them together creating a deeper connection and the exact same can go to the villians. This part is darker and more violent but beautiful. Like oh my god the art as well in this part is my favourite style like it is THE jojo style for me. The setting is my favourite and the designs are all so beautiful. Literally the ending is the only thing that falls short for me. Not the final act and what leads up to it. Its more like once everything is said and done we flash back to before the events of the story started and we spend a while there...which certainly is a choice...other than that giorno is my fav jojo aswell.

Part 4 is really chill and comfy like its just a good time. First half lacks direction a bit until the second half. I get it the first half is meant to build up this town and characters so that when the second half shakeup happens it puts all these things we care about on the line. But I still think a happy middle ground could have been made. Either way still a super enjoyable time with memorable characters. Stand abilities aren't going too crazy. The literal perfect middle point of jojo as the art transitions from the massive bulky men to more slim designs as araki really finds his artistic footing at the end of this season and transitions into the next part.

Part 3 is goooddddd.... for me though I think the plot isn't as interesting as most of it is just trying to go somewhere whilst fighting people along the way and thats it really it dosent necessarily twist and turn or change other than the means of going somewhere does change a bit. The characters are pretty good but they are all kind of one note aside from Joseph and polnareff and aren't too interesting until the second half where things get alot more interesting cause araki has figured out how to make the stand battles more unique. I think in retrospect this part suffers because of how far araki takes the stand powers later on and it makes sense to start out abit more simple. And the final battle section is legitimately effective and brings the rest of the part up quite alot. Overall just too long for its own good.

Part 2 is like the perfected version of how bizzare jojo can be before the introduction of stands in the next part. The characters are more iconic in my opinion and the plot is more interesting and goes all over the place. Its just so enjoyable

This'll go for just part 1 but phantom blood despite being tame compared to what comes later is still a very enjoyable and rock solid start to this story thats lasted around 40 years now. I think whilst being basic and not too terribly unique its still very....bizarre and interesting which characters that are so over the top. Part is just non stop and a blast

This goes for the whole series but I think its pretty hard to be disappointed in this series considering where it goes and what it does. It goes on for quite a while and still manages to be relatively satisfying and engaging the entire time with amazing heart stopping moments and twists. The art improvement through out the series is amazing to see and I think the style suits the tone of the story perfectly and its hauntingly beautiful as a result.

This'll go for part 1 and whatever part 2 has covered as of 24th of November 2025 but this is like next level. Manages to be absurd and fast paced whilst still being extremely focused and effective. The ability fujimoto has to make you care for these characters with such simple gestures and actions. Plus the art is super effective even if it has changed a tad over the run of the series its still so perfect and ive seen myself taking from it a lot.

This'll go for the whole series but this thing came to me at the perfect age in all honesty and its one of the few series I stayed with as each chapter came out right up until the end. And after everything is said and done its really good.
