JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind
Oshimeter
Synopsis
Meet Giorno Giovanna, a 15-year-old pickpocket living in Naples with a dream that sounds completely unhinged: he wants to join the Italian mafia and take it over from the inside. His reason? The local crime syndicate, Passione, has flooded the streets with drugs targeting kids, and Giorno figures the only way to fix a broken system is to climb to the top of it. He's also got a Stand called Gold Experience that can breathe life into anything he touches, which makes for some genuinely creative fights. After a tense encounter with Bruno Bucciarati, a gangster with his own sense of justice, Giorno starts working his way into Passione's ranks alongside a crew of misfits, each with their own bizarre abilities. This is JoJo Part 5, so expect 39 episodes of increasingly wild Stand battles where the real weapon is thinking three steps ahead of your opponent. David Production went hard on the animation here, the colors pop, the poses are iconic, and the soundtrack shifts between Italian opera vibes and straight-up bangers. If you liked the strategic combat in Hunter x Hunter or the stylish criminal underworld energy of Baccano! and Black Lagoon, this lands in that same space. The tone is action-packed but surprisingly tactical, and the group dynamic gives it a heist-crew feel that sets it apart from other JoJo parts.

Please watch the previous parts before watching this, although the previous part's characters doesn't have a big role in this part they are still connected with the MC. The location this time is far away from the previous part and the MC is quite intriguing considering who his father was. There are also returning characters but they don't have much an exposure in this episode. Although the plot isn't known yet the MC is enough to take my interest.
Mista and Six Bullets are great, but that 'Torture Dance' by Narancia, Mista, and Fugo is the absolute highlight! It's so hilariously bizarre seeing them dance while intimidating a prisoner. The perfect mix of chaos, great music, and peak entertainment. 10/10!
The stand of this episode really matches with the episode's title. The impact of this episode was kinda weak considering it's after the Diavolo and Giorno fight. I would even call it a bizzare move to even put this in the last episode, it is an excessive way to prove a point. Anyways, it's nice to see a change in Trish's attitude it looks like a big weight has been lifted off her. This has been a golden experience watching this part, the suspense, drama and action are top notch. Even the soundtrack and animation style are golden 😎
At first I thought that I had the wrong episode since I see the usual Team Buciaratti in their usual spot in Libeccio and upon double checking I really had the right episode it's just that the episode had a bizzare start. Anyways after the OP, Diavolos real fate has been shown and oh boy it was really brutal, I believe his fate was even worse than Kars. I guess he won't be having great days anymore even after he breaks down 😎. The second part of the episode continues from the bizzare opening of the episode and considering that Giorno isn't with them, it's one of those usual requests that Buciaratti takes before he met Giorno.
This was a roller coaster of an episode, the only word I can think of to this describe this episode is MARAVILLOSO!!!. It's really satisfying to see Diavolo got even more frantic and Trish saying the play-by-play of the events is both helpful and yet hilarious 😂. You think that Diavolo's end was anticlimatic? Check out the next episode what really happens to him
Just when you thought you have seen all the abilities of the Requiem stand it displayed an additional after effects of the first ability, it even set everything into high gear. This was truly a suspenseful episode, more so than the previous episodes. Everyone was scrambling and even the boss himself got frantic just like when he fought Risotto
This was another painful episode, they didn't even have time to pause for just a little bit. Polnareff did a great explanation on why the boss can have a switching ability(I'm trying to make it vague in case some rascal decided to skip some episode and happened to read this). This episode also explains the other ability of Silver Chariot Requiem. As the episode ends, the mood quickly changes to suspenseful since the enemy still remains.
What a freaky episode and if I have wrote this review on a friday then that would have been oddly appropriate. It's hilarious seeing the reaction of everyone, I have expected the scene at the end since the studio has kindly shown a chart during a small interlude of the episode. P.S. The OP wasn't changed but the visuals and the way it was played has definitely changed.
There's a big reveal in this episode and not just that it also explains how the stand powers were given to the passione members. You would definitely notice how the art of both Jotaro and Polnareff are odd in the flashback but to tell you the truth that's how they are supposed to look like 😂. This has been a big suspenseful episode and seeing as how Polnareff tried to use the stairs tactics made me chuckle 🤭
It's Bucciarati's turn this time. Just when you thought that Cioccolata was a scum, Secco was an even bigger scum. It's not as flashy with the previous fight but it's hilarious that Secco also landed on the same place as Cioccolata 😂. There's a returning character in this episode from the previous part and I'm right with my guess on the previous episode.
The 7 page muda episode, Cioccolata's beatdown was so satisfying af. It looks like Giorno mastered his Stand ability in this fight and I gotta give credit to number 5 with the great assist. If you don't recognize the man in the colloseum then shame on you, the clue is clear as day on that one.
Another stand I dont completely understand but visually stunning .So happy Golden Exprience Requiem showcases its ability in such a quirky and weird manner Jojo delivers
This is the first part of the battle against Cioccolata and Secco. The stairs scene at the start reminded me of a certain french guy who keeps on failing to climb a stair 😆. The episode has been shifting the mood from suspenseful to a foreboding mood then back to suspenseful again. There's a creative way to use the color palette change to censor something while also conveying the sudden change of mood. It's gonna be an exciting battle next episode and I can't wait to see the beat down that Cioccolata will receive 😤
It's the start of the final stretch for this part, there's also the explanation of the origin and governing principle of the stand arrow which wasn't explained on the previous parts. The enemy this time may be the most heinous person in this part even the boss himself is wary of him. The color palette change is definitely on point again and so is the soundtrack. The execution was perfect for the suspenseful scene near the end of the episode.
This was a frustrating episode, no matter how many times I watched this episode it still stings. David Productions did a great job in episode, the mood was delivered perfectly and the transition of the effects was on point. I wouldn't say too much of this episode just watch it and brace yourself.
This episode was so epic and it really goes over Giorno's past and what drove him to being a gangster! And who would have thought that him and Bruno would have common ground and both have a similar goal?
This was a rather graphic episode. Tbh I wasn't that interested in the fight, if they could take each other out then everyone would be happy but that would have been a rather boring story for this part. The color palette change was on point and so was the soundtrack.
Although team Bucciarati doesn't have any screen time in this episode it's still an interesting watch since there's a big revelation in this episode. P.S. If you haven't figured anything out after watching the episode then I can't help you with your situation😐, the episode is literally spoon feeding you with information.
⚠️ This episode contains a jumpscare, people with a weak heart should watch it with caution. I recommend asking a friend to watch it first then tell you where it happens. ⚠️ Anyways back to the review, This was a suspenseful episode with a dash of horror. Everything was perfectly executed, from the soundtrack, change of mood and the build up of tension. It even ends in a cliff hanger to heighten the anticipation. I think Araki has a knack for also making a horror story since he got the suspense part mastered 🤔
The ED got changed first on the previous episode and then followed by this unskippable OP, unskippable you ask? It's because it's definitely fire, from how it was made and it somewhat recounts the past events and matches the current situation of team Bucciarati. Narancia's fight in this episode isn't as flashy in comparison with Formaggio but I prefer this one. He's fighting in a smart manner and he also looked cool at the end.
