| Araki manages to write a very lengthy story, with individual conflicts lasting multiple chapters, while still managing to fill each individual chapter with plenty of enjoyable and engaging content. This is something rarely seen in other manga (ESPECIALLY Bleach), where conflicts are either finished quickly, extended by having interspliced "meanwhile" scenes, or simply by spreading the worthwhile material very thin and cramming the gaps with pointless filler.
In other words, while some mind be turned off by JJBA's prairie-like "goes on forever" length, but in my opinion, this series is extremely enjoyable BECAUSE of it. | |

| Don't expect a lot out of Part 5. It's easily the worst part of the series and really only the fights with Execution Squad are the enjoyable ones and even then Araki manages to drop the ball a few times with the climaxes on those.
But Part 5 is still enjoyable. | |

But Part 5 is still enjoyable. YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH. Anyway, part 5 is shitty because the main evil guy is all like, powerful and shit hacked. It's impossible for Araki to write a proper fight for that part of the manga. |

Not to mention after the execution squad every fight becomes shit, a turtle is involved in another character's fate, Doppio is fucking annoying, The battle of the worst stands in the series, and the last... well I'm not sure if I can call it a fight. | |

| Don't expect much from part 6 either. Part 4 had the last good final battle. |

No Part 6 was fucking fantastic in the middle. But after Pucci gets the baby then everything else from there went to hell. Well not really, Bohemian Rhapsody is about one of the best stands in the series, just the user is an idiot. And Versace is a pretty cool guy with another awesome stand. Actually, if you exclude Rykiel then even after Pucci gets the baby Part 6 was still pretty awesome, what with Bohemian Rhapsody, Underworld, and Heavy Weather (Excluding what happens to Weather.). Everything really goes to hell after Heavy Weather until the last chapter. Otherwise Part 6 was one of the best parts. | |

| I was talking about the Last fight. It was a massacre. I didn't say the Part as a whole was bad. |

Yes, the final fight in Part 4 was the last good final boss fight and it's pretty anti-climactic but fuckwin for the most part. | |
