After finally escaping the confines of Green Dolphin Street Jail, Jolyne Kuujou—alongside her companions Ermes Costello and Emporio Alniño—pursues the villainous priest Enrico Pucci across the state of Florida. Jolyne's allies, Weather Report and Narciso Anasui, struggle to catch up with her in order to help bring an end to Pucci's plot. As both parties pursue the priest, they must battle against Pucci's band of enemy Stand users.
While Jolyne's comrades fight for their lives, Pucci races to the Kennedy Space Center. There he hopes to enact his ultimate goal, one he believes God has entrusted to him. He aims to fulfill the will of the Joestars' blood enemy Dio Brando and—by robbing humanity of free will and making them slaves to fate—to create a world where all humans are blissfully happy.
Unable to rely on the aid of her comatose father Joutarou, Jolyne must weaponize all she has learned in prison to confront Pucci in a climactic battle while the world itself hangs in the balance.
JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Part 6: Stone Ocean Part 3 – A journey from the stone walls to the surreal skies!
If you thought the world of JoJo couldn’t get any more intriguing, brace yourself for the grandeur of Part 6: Stone Ocean Part 3. Our story places us smack dab in the heart of a maximum-security prison in Florida, known as Green Dolphin Street Prison. Here, our protagonist, spirited and spunky Jolyne Cujoh has been falsely accused and is serving time. Inherited from her father, Jotaro Kujo, Jolyne develops her stand (A physical manifestation of user’s fighting spirit) named Stone Free, enabling her to unravel her body into string.
However, the prison walls are hardly her biggest concern. Bubbling beneath its grim surface is a plot twisted more intricately than the threads of Jolyne’s Stone Free. An unholy alliance, a dangerous quest, and the hidden Stand users make this battlefield nowhere close to mundane prison life. Dreams clashing, powers unfolding; every element amplifies the intrigue of this unique setting in the larger JoJo universe.
Animation and Art-style
Once again, Hirohiko Araki’s imaginative art style is brilliantly translated into animation. The character design is eccentric, laden with Araki’s signature flair for fashion. Stellar animation does justice to the intense and bizarre fights that the series is known for.
Story and Characters
While initially centred on Jolyne’s quest for freedom, the plot soon uncovers a sinister scheme with stakes higher than ever. Jolyne’s character development is subtly captivating, as she unfurls from rebellious teenager to a resilient fighter. She’s not alone; there is a motley crew of colorful characters and disturbing adversaries, plus a few beloved faces from former seasons. The narrative shines with its cheeky humor intertwined with high-octane action sequences.
Soundtrack and Voice Acting
Consistent with previous installments, the soundtrack of Stone Ocean is a musical journey in itself. It does an astonishing job of complementing the surreal, often intense scenes. And can we talk about voice acting? The talented cast breathes life into these larger-than-life characters, with Fairouz Ai’s performance as Jolyne being particularly noteworthy.
Final Thoughts
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Part 6: Stone Ocean Part 3 grips you with its compelling storyline, dynamic characters, and of course, its stand-out Stands. It undoubtedly carries forth the JoJo legacy and yet triumphs in setting its own identity, largely thanks to our wonderful protagonist, Jolyne. If you’re a seasoned JoJo fan, you know this is a must-watch. But even if you’re new to the universe, Stone Ocean is a tantalizing roller coaster that is sure to thrill and amaze.
In the end, whether to rent, buy or stream this epic anime isn’t the question, dear readers. The real question should be; are you ready to dive deep into the Stone Ocean’s wave of extraordinary bizarre adventures?
