JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 6: Stone Ocean (Official Colored) - Vol. 17 Ch. 158 - What a wonderful world

the manga community is so diffrent than the anime the anime community just says everything is a jojo refrence or laugh at charecters death but the manga community is soo diffrent
 
I'm kind of like the anime-only that shifted over to manga to continue the story, except I literally backtracked through all the manga and light novels of Part 1-5, all one-shots and whatever included, so it took me quite a bit more time to get to where the main canon actually continues.

I like Jolyne. I was spoiled on the ending upfront. This doesn't look like it will lead into Part 7 like I was possibly thinking, so it really doesn't seem connected at all right now, but I enjoyed the time I had here. I loved the more closed-off setting of the women's prison. I was fully expecting some characters to come back up, so a lot of character deaths really didn't hit me, but I'll miss them. If there was a bit of a lull, I would say that even with Stands I found very entertaining and creative, the minor arc in between with the sons of Dio was probably the weakest point. Also, Weather Report being Pucci's twin was... weird. But it was a nice, heavy backstory.

I feel like I will enjoy this all the more as it gets animated.

From other comments here, I don't like people thinking, "so all these people died for what?" or that this new reality is all a happy illusion, that everything was just thrown away and that nothing means anything. What pessimists you guys are. New "realities" are just as real, with people that lived out full lives - not just dopplegangers that imitate life. Even if Emporio if made to suffer in the end, everyone else is just living life. And that's great.

Now, I'll be reading that gucci one-shot and finishing Over Heaven before moving on to Steel Ball Run.
 
This is an ending that gets better the more you sit on it. I read this years ago when it was initially translated yet every so often I come back to reread it and it really is the best way Araki could've ended everything tbh. Anything less dramatic would've felt like a boring copout.
