Another great OP. I feel like there's only one OP I don't care for and that's Egypt Stardust one.

Everything else has been so good. I'm so excited for this shit!

Best JoJos protagonist and best female Shonen protagonist arrives.

Yeah, I like the art and visuals but the music is not as good; maybe it'll grow on me.

Hopefully this Jojo is more interesting than the last one (have only watched anime). The last Jojo (Giorno) was too much of a Mary Sue.

As someone who's favorite openings are Sono chi no Kioku and Traitor's Requiem (aka a weirdo) I really like this opening and only think it'll grow on me more.

There's also an English version of the OP, as was the case with every JoJo OP since the second Part 4 OP.

Not really feeling the song, it's just alright I guess.
The animation is still good as ever though.
Stand Proud is still my favorite.

People dislike Traitor's Requiem?

The visuals are great. The song is only okay.

Poll doesn't have an option that reflects my feeling (okay is between good and meh), so not voting :P

I just watched all of JoJo for the first time this month so I could watch Stone Ocean with my boyfriend.

It's good, I probably wouldn't skip it like I did with most of Part 3 and Part 5, parts I truly could not wait to finish. It's maybe toward the middle of the openings for me. Visuals are fantastic. I just rewatched all the openings and then played this at the end and it feels good.

Bloody Stream is still my favorite. Great Days is the only one that comes close and half of that is because of the second version. It was cute when they did it in Part 3, but Part 4 really fucking nailed the execution by having the set up for it at the start. God, the first time seeing it was chilling. Part 5 doing that just came off as annoying to me and like they felt they had to.

I still don't know that I'm a fan of the show, although I can say unequivocally that I am a fan of Part 4 and it's one of the best seasons of television I've seen. Truly inspired from the start and does not stop from there. I've heard great things about Part 6 and especially 7, so we'll see how I feel.

I did enjoy Part 2 a lot. It felt like the full potential of everything JoJo was in Part 1. Likewise Part 4 felt like the realization of the potential Part 3 had. There was just so much more potential in what Part 3 had that it never touched.

Am I the only one who finds the art style of this show hideous?

I'm not shitting on Jojo, I do plan on watching it someday by a huge recommendation from a friend of mine. I'm sure it's great but god damn, that art is fucking horrible.

You get used to it, but Part 4 has a different style that I fucking adore.

Oh yeah, those visuals are awesome. So nice to see them bring back CGI. The song doesn't quite do it for me but maybe I just need to hear it a few more times

Internet today: "The visuals are great but the song is pretty weak not gonna lie."

Internet a week later: "DONT STOP BEATING DONT STOP BEATING DONT STOP BEATING THEM UP"

It happens with every Jojo OP and this will be no exception.

I like this theme very very much

oh here's a fun thing.

Open up this opening


and this opening


make sure both are visible on your screen, mute one of'em, start the first video (stone ocean) and on the 4 second mark hit start on the second one. :D
(they don't match up, but one moment will)

I am really happy listening to the lyrics - the song is blantly from Jolyne's perspective. We have had that a bit before with previous JoJo OPs but nothing really as clear as this.

Lyrics:

There's no time to be naive
The days of lies are over and done
Tug on all the string(s) of faith
Oh wait and see, the game has just begun

Even if I'm surrounded by
Trap and hate, I'll dodge'em all
Okay (okay!) Alright (alright!)
No one can stop my SURVIVAL DAYS

Get away from (Stone Ocean!)
I don't wanna say / I don't wanna play (there's no chance / There's no time)
Let's get started count, (1-2-3)
Help me find a way / Take me far away / Can we find a way? (Fly, Stone Free! / Fight, Stone Free!)

As long as I am being real to myself
(Got to be tough)

Break out (Hey!) I'm wide awake (Ho!)
Not gonna turn back to whom I was before
Break out (Hey!) Won't escape (Ho!)
Light up the skill(s) I'll be stronger evermore

Limits are bye-bye,
My heart's on standby
Until the fate is
on my side

I don't stop beating
don't stop beating
don't stop beating them up


If you want to drag me in
in a mixed-up world full of bad jokes
I'm the only savior
Oh wait and see, the game has just begun

Even G-O-D had made
plan(s) and scenario-o(s)
Okay (okay!) Alright (alright!)
I'll crash and smash and build it up again

Get away from (Stone Ocean!)
I don't wanna say / I don't wanna play (there's no chance / There's no time)
Let's get started count, (1-2-3)
Help me find a way / Take me far away / Can we find a way? (Fly, Stone Free! / Fight, Stone Free!)

You can never the word "surrender" in my book
(Ain't nobody stop)

Break out (Hey!) Let's go wild (Ho!)
Not gonna look down, aim for hope and faith
Break out (Hey!) Won't escape (Ho!)
I'll rise from the ashes like the pheonix

Tough and strong spirit,
growin' up in top speed
Until the fate is
in my hands

I don't stop beating
don't stop beating
don't stop beating them up


(Got to be tough)

Break out (Hey!) I'm wide awake (Ho!)
Not gonna turn back to whom I was before
Break out (Hey!) Won't escape (Ho!)
Light up the skill(s) I'll be stronger evermore

Limits are bye-bye,
My heart's on standby
Until the fate is
on my side

I don't stop beating
don't stop beating
don't stop beating them up
