You can't, its perfect

Shittiest part.

MODS

That would be Part 4 user.

Simply: you can't

That's literally part fo-

This

After watching other anime, i would say that the whole jojo series are a solid 4/10

have advol killed off for good the first time
add hol horse to the crew
switch joseph's opponent mariah with alessi to have battle tendency joseph briefly back
add more gambling mind games to d'arby's fight

Give Joseph a better Stand
Better foreshadowing for Star Platinum being able to stop time

Now that is the real shit taste baka~

this. Also a gender swap stand

The thought of Jotaro losing an arm against Dio is really cool.

Remove Polnareff

Most of the fights were shit, except Darby.
If it had more Jotaro gambling and shit, it would be better

Obvious answers are character development and interaction

But also switch Jotaro and Kakyoin's roles in the D'Arby the Younger fight. It would give some precedent to a bond between Kakyoin and Joseph before they fight DIO, give Kakyoin a win in the Egypt arc and honestly Jotaro should've taken at least one L.

Same travel plot but with part 4 Jotaro fighting part 6 DIO & friends.
Also more Joseph.

They did, it's called part 4

Part 3 is almost perfect. The only thing I'd change is have a few less monster of the week chapters. Some of the enemies were just shit and uninteresting, like the Sun stand guy or the adult in a babby's body. And they're around for far too short a time for you to actually care about them

Don't "kill" Avdol the first time.
Give Kakyoin a fight after he comes back from the hospital.
More focus on Dio and not just the final battle.

>More focus on Dio and not just the final battle.

There was not a lot to do with Dio, or Araki would have focused on him. He was a fan favorite character. He already had to come up with a bullshit reason for them to even have to track him down in Cairo and kill him

Even his motivation is poorly-explained as fuck. He wants to create an utopia for stand users I guess. You'd think he'd become filthy rich first, which was his original dream from Part 1

Further evidence of Araki's incapacity to give Dio a realistic motivation is the fact that he actually felt the need to revisit the character with the whole Pucci relationship, and he again blew it. "Dio's diary" and his babby-tier philosophy about "peace of mind"

you are embarrassing yourself

Replace it with the OVA series by trimming all the side villain of the week

He wants to create an utopia for everybody. He stopped caring about money when he turned into a vampire and by part 3 he had a shitton of money anyway.

if you trimmed the MOTW it would be five episodes

also
>posting that awful dub

You'd think he would live through the aeons while hiding his power so as to avoid persecution and still exerting influence - But the whole synchronicity with Jotaro's mom and everyone knowing it's due to him won't allow him

There are such a thing as hamon masters in the world, and he has a huge weakness in that brain damage will kill or severely incapacitate him. No to mention sunlight. A common modern day infantry explosive would rek him. He had a weird ambition, which was only somewhat enabled by the idea of "eventually I'll be able to stop time for as long as I want"

>if you trimmed the MOTW it would be five episodes

13 actually.

And I enjoyed the OVA series infinitely more than the 2014 version

This. The art from the OVA is much superior IMO (from N'Doul onwards, anyways - the studio that did the episodes before that is SHIT)

episodes 2-44 are motw. its not even hard to tell because the episode name is literally the person they are fighting.

>live through the aeons while hiding his power so as to avoid persecution and still exerting influence
Thats not his style, he likes to boss people.

>There are such a thing as hamon masters in the world
Are they really? It didn't seem like there were that many and most of them die every time there is a crisis. By the end of part 2 the only hamon master on duty was the dude with the funny hat as far as I remember, Joseph and LisaLisa retired, hamon may be a dead by the time part 3 start. Not to mention stand users could very easily defeat them.

>has a huge weakness in that brain damage will kill or severely incapacitate him. No to mention sunlight. A common modern day infantry explosive would rek him
We have seen him heal brain damage and Straits survived being blown up. Hamon and sunlight are his only weaknesses.

>Hamon and sunlight are his only weaknesses.

Physical trauma, too. Being made from flesh and blood makes him massively weak to anything that can actually destroy a human body

If a fighter jet bombed him with the power he had circa part 3 he would die

>drop bomb with yield to clear a few city blocks
>Dio can only stop time for ~8 seconds
>can't get away even if he spams it

Without even getting to nukes and etc.

Oh I was talking about the OVA series only being 13 episodes. They only kept the important villain of the week characters like the ship, water stand, gambler, etc

"8 seconds"

Dio was bidding his time until he could stop time forever. He would probably be unstoppable by then. The joestars got to him before he could develop his power fully

Unless you actually vaporize him he should be able to heal it.

>Give Kakyoin a fight after he comes back from the hospital.
How about a fight IN the hospital instead? Like, he's blind and has to figure out where the enemy is and how he's being attacked. It would be interesting to see a N'Doul type of fight from the hero's perspective, sort of like Ebony Devil vs Polnareff, except complete blindness.

Sharpnel and even concussive damage to his brain's plasticity he should be unable to heal without sucking blood

Or at least that's what it seemed like his limitations were. He got stabbed through the head by Silver Chariot and then took a blow which cracked his skull and couldn't even stand up. He had to run away with tricks and suck Joseph's blood to regen that wound

Because he was in the middle of a fight.
Seeing the healing powers of vampires in the first two parts it is fair to assume that given enough time he can heal on his own, feeding only accelerates the process.

He could use Hierophant Green to feel his way around and lay traps, similar to how he set up the barrier in his fight with Dio.

Yeah but like, if you're carpet bombing his location - Assuming even indirect hits, how fast can he regen so as to avoid death? The World can probably intercept shrapnel, but not air dislocation

Exactly, but he still wouldn't be able to see what his opponent's ability is. Like, if his stand could materialize through walls, then the user would only have to sneak and look around, triggering traps with random objects or people and try to confuse Kakyoin until he's in a vulnerable position.

don't randomly invent stands

If he stood there and took it maybe but the most likely scenario has him taking the first hit and immediately using The World to protect himself, either by stopping time, flying away or warding himself from the explosion. He will get hurt but it wouldn't be enough to kill him.
