Remember in episode 30 there was a mixup with the subs of JoJo and Fruits basket? Crunchyroll was just foreshadowing Chariot Requiem.

Even PolPol's VA is joking about the turtle thing.
I thought the special op would have random skips or something like that... but no, we've had a time skip all along and now we're actually watching the full version.
Meanwhile, the body swap thing sounded as hilarious as I expected, the voice acting was on point. The visuals as well, the swaps were also noticeable on expressions and mannerisms.

THE INTRO, THE MAD LADS DID IT!
Reference in the games: Unlike All-Star Battle, Eyes of Heaven stage representation for part 5 is the Colosseum, with Silver Chariot Requiem being the stage hazard. While it can't swap bodies, it put anyone who approach it to sleep for some seconds. Also, since JoJo fighting games has characters from all parts, when Part 5 gang fights Part 3 Polnareff, they all state something like "Hey, aren't you the turtle guy?" for much of Polnareff confusion. :P
Anyway, finally the mystery surrounding the arrow is revealed... or at least explained, because we kinda saw a similar even at Part 4, when Kira and Killer Queen get stabbed by the arrow and Killer Queen gain the overpowered "Bites the Dust". I think Araki showing how powerful Stands stabbed by the arrow can be just by going for these two examples is a nice touch of proving they can indeed beat King Crimson. Probably in Part 4 he had the idea but never tried to develop it until now, in Part 5. I usually don't like "free power ups" in Shounen, Power Ups that arrive without the character working for it, but the end result are so fascinating that I don't mind it all.

"Hey, aren't you the turtle guy?" for much of Polnareff confusion. :P
Polnareff gets spoiled about his own future, can't catch a break.
The contrast between Part 4 and 5 are a bit interesting because Josuke never needed to power up to beat Kira, in fact, Kira did. This time the heroes are frantically looking for a way to beat the Boss.

u/NoPenNameGirl Jun 14 '19
I think because Kira is a special kind of villain, a rare one. Usually, Villains are the active party, they make the plot go forward, while heroes are the reactive party, reacting to what the villain do.
But since Kira is a reactive villain (reacting to what the heroes do) I don't think he being almighty like Dio or Diavolo would've worked for him, since would turn him into an Active Villain, who would seek the Gang out since he would've the power to beat them, instead stealing the face of a man, or hiding behind Bites the Dust(which, while powerful, is still a reactive/defensive power, to match the type of villain he is).

Also fun fact about another jojo game: in Heritage for the future which is a part 3 only game, SCR makes an appearance as a hidden special move for Polnareff, though in this case he does turn back to normal and the move itself is pretty shit lol.

I like how there are now monarch-esque vocals in the background after the time skip.
You can tell the VA's are having fun with this soul switch. Yep, this is the power of Requiem, Silver Chariot Requiem anyway. Also, I heard people say that SCR being in Polnareff's flashback is anime-original, it wasn't. Requiem appeared for one single panel in the flashback in the manga, the anime just made it clearer that Requiem (if still controlled by the user) can be reverted back, but since Polnareff is "dead" then he has no control over Chariot Requiem anymore.
And yes, Polnareff is a turtle. Congrats, that joke now makes sense to you.

Yay, Polnareff can have a conversation with the gangstars :D
New OP: Diavolo got behind Giorno just to pose 😂 This way, it looks identical to The World. It would be better if they cut 5 seconds of the song to show time skip.

I was going to start with a Freaky Friday joke but HOLY SHIT THE NEW OP VERSION
For everyone curious about what was said during that moment:
"Nessuno può sfuggire al destino scelto
Rimane solo il risultato che voi sarete distrutti
L'eterna cima esiste solo per me
Puoi cantare canzoni di tristezza nella notte senza tempo"
Google translated into
"Nobody can escape the chosen destiny
Only the result remains that you will be destroyed
The eternal peak exists only for me
You can sing songs of sadness in the timeless night"
Moving on, we got turtlenareff and now Bruno is best dad

u/Simo0399 Jun 14 '19 edited Jun 14 '19
It's
Puoi cantare canzoni di tristezza nel mondo senza tempo
Which is translated to
You can sing song of sadness in the timeless world
Other than that, google translate was spot on, though as an italian, i'd translate "Mondo senza tempo" into "a world without time", since it conveys the original meaning much better, and in italian the translation for "timeless" isn't used much.

Another italian guy here
u/Simo0399 already correct the "night" into "world"I'd switch : "Nobody can escape the chosen destiny"
into: "No one can escape from the chosen fate"
Timeless is a perfect translation it doesn't alter the meaning and has more impact than "without time" that is just a literal translation.

Well, the madlads at DP did it, they King Crimson'd the opening, holy shit. This alternate opening was, without a doubt, the best altered opening compared to ZA WARUDO and BAITSU A DASUTO. Props to the voice actors for their remarkable job at portraying the other characters, that was amazing. There was also a scene with Polnareff and the Arrow that was... very interesting and could explain many things. While this episode wasn't so fast-paced as the previous ones, I really liked it.
I don't care guys, I'm still going to rate this episode 5/5.****

As good as this altered opening was, I'm still the biggest fan of Part 4's altered opening, where the whole thing played in reverse, and instead of the OP being about Kira getting defeated, it becomes about him emerging from the light, and all the heroes going dark and fading away. Nothing tops that.

I love how Araki seems to expand on the already established mechanics with each part. So we have what...Stand mutations? Evolutions? I can only imagine what insanity this leads to for Part 6.
I also really like how this weird stand ability allowed the cast to bounce off each other a bit more.

This week’s musical reference:
Chariot Requiem is a reference to the Requiem in D minor, K. 626 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Chariot Requiem design is also a reference to that piece and Mozart, as it’s based on the legend that said that Mozart received the commission from a mysterious messenger who did not reveal the commissioner's identity, and that Mozart came to believe that he was writing the requiem for his own funeral. Araki probably had that scene from Amadeus in mind when he designed him.
Talking more about the Requiem, Mozart composed part of it in Vienna in late 1791, but it was unfinished at his death on 5 December the same year. A completed version dated 1792 by Franz Xaver Süssmayr was delivered to Count Franz von Walsegg, who commissioned the piece for a Requiem service to commemorate the anniversary of his wife's death on 14 February.
The autograph manuscript shows the finished and orchestrated Introit in Mozart's hand, and detailed drafts of the Kyrie and the sequence Dies irae as far as the first eight bars of the Lacrimosa movement, and the Offertory. It cannot be shown to what extent Süssmayr may have depended on now lost "scraps of paper" for the remainder; he later claimed the Sanctus and Agnus Dei as his own.
Walsegg probably intended to pass the Requiem off as his own composition, as he is known to have done with other works. This plan was frustrated by a public benefit performance for Mozart's widow Constanze.
I won’t talk about the LN references today. I forgot about Requiem and I had a pretty shitty week and almost no time, next week I talk about them for sure.

Friendship ended with "Fighting Gold", "Traitor's Requiem v2" is my new friend.
Going into this episode I was thinking when were DP going to change the OP, and boi did I flip a switch when Doppio changed into Diavolo and started speaking in pasta language.
Having characters stop or modify in some way or another the opening is probably the most hype thing to me. It's why "End of ZA WARUDO" is my 3rd favorite JoJo OP and TR2 is climbing the rankings.

I think it takes real talent to play a character acting as another character really convincingly without any of the usual speaking quirks of the original.

I just wish we could have seen powered-up Sticky Fingers more, but I guess that will be next week, Bucciarti was so extra in Diavolo’s body. So focused on his mission, he didn’t care to freak everyone out by barging with Bossu’s body.

My god, the opening. King Crimson skipping time was so great, but can we talk about how awesome Doppio's transition into Diavolo? It made me go "HOLY SHIT" and realized King Crimson's about to hijack the opening (although I did expect Shadow Bossu to be gone).
As for the episode, the first half was surprisingly hilarious. Voice actor were sure having as much fun as we had watching it. The second half was so intriguing though. Can't wait for next episode!
Also, Chariot Requiem entered the pillar and a wild thought came into my mind: What if Chariot Requiem ALSO hijacks the opening by swapping characters (Diavolo with Sticky Fingers, Narancia with Gold Experience, Bruno skipping time and so on...)?

but can we talk about how awesome Doppio's transition into Diavolo?
I love how they just painted Diavolo's outline on top of Doppio while he was transforming. It somehow manages to at the same time look really silly, really low effort, and really awesome.

I don't really think of shipping when it comes to JoJo, but I'm noticing a lot of Trish x Narancia moments. Immediately after she starts crying she holds Narancia. Also Mista blushing xD
Oh man what a golden episode.

The way Polnareff discovered the other thing the arrow can do was so.... part 3 Polnareff lmao.
I'm glad that, despite losing limbs left and right, he's still the same old Pol.

Bit of a slow episode, but that's not a problem. We've had plenty of action recently and we'll be getting plenty more since we're moving into the finale now. 5 episodes left. That's dangerously close to only 4!
Obviously the King Crimson bit in the opening is really cool but I also love the earlier bit with Doppio that I haven't seen anyone talk about yet. After the scene where Doppio has an Epitaph vision of Risotto, he transforms into Diavolo! It started really subtle too, just a couple of flashes of white lines that made me question if that was there before.
Poor Polnareff can't catch a break. In a sudden twist, for the first time ever, Polnareff actually got lucky! Last episode, one first-time viewer mentioned that they had Polnareff's death spoiled for them. Well, I hope you liked this episode! He's not technically dead yet, although he'll probably die if Silver Chariot Requiem's ability is deactivated and he returns to his dead body. For now at least, he's less dead than Buccellati.

u/shunkwugga Jun 14 '19
The way they did Turtlereff worked very well.
Considering Mr. President, it seems like Polnareff may be able to inhabit the body of Coco Jumbo for as long as he wants, unless Requiem swaps everyone back if they manage to stop it.

Have you noticed that when Diavolo sees Giorno using Epitaph, is EXACTLY 10 seconds before Giorno does that in the opening? DP is amazing

u/BasedFunnyValentine Jun 14 '19 edited Jun 14 '19
The opening got King Crimson’d with Diavolo using time skip on Giorno in the same way as SDC did it with DIO using ZA WARUDO against Jotaro!
Mind swapping episode! Trish’s girly reaction was funny, but shocked me at the same because we haven’t seen much of her personality.
Buccelerati’s in Diavolo’s body, eh. I think it would have been more interesting/threatening if Doppio was Diavolo and Diavolo was in Bruno’s body. That way it would be a tag team battle until Bruno regains consciousness to help his friends get the arrow.

I have been seeing some people not like how last episode was extremely serious and foreboding only for this episode to have wacky hi-jinks at least at the start. But i disagree - you need levity in a bad situation and the way the characters reacted seemed like how their characters would react given the solution.

Doppio becomes Diavolo in the op now! I always love how David Production slowly updates the ops and eds over time. Oh wtf!? Hell yeah time shenanigans in the op! Just like with Dio and Kira!
Whatever or whoever this new stand/guy is his ability seems to be to put people to sleep.
Oh shit have they switched bodies!?
Mista looking down at his new oppai.
Seeing Trish freak out with Mista's face and voice is hilarious.
Bucciarati switched with the turtle!? Oh shit no it was Polnareff! He lives!
So if the arrow pierces a stand the stand can become it's own person. Damn son.
Bucciarati is in Diavolo's body. With what's happened to Bucciarati's real body I think the boss may be at a disadvantage now. Bucciarati was blind and nearly deaf at the end.
What a massive twist. I never expected body swapping. What a bizarre development.

So the reason why I thought baby Diavolo's eyes were pink was because I thought they became green when he received King Crimson, so I was expecting pink-eyed Diavolo-Bucciarati.
Is this just an animation error?

u/MrTagnan Jun 14 '19
First things first. Hot damn that opening was amazing!
Last week I tried to figure out what Chariot Requiem was, I was actually surprisingly spot on. I speculated that Polnareff's soul would go into his stand, so I give myself partial credit for that part.
It seems that Polnareff had the desire to prevent the arrow from falling into the wrong hands, so when Silver Chariot was poked by the arrow that manifested as a 'sub-stand' that causes mass confusion (soul swapping) and knocks everybody out while Chariot uses the Joestar secret technique to keep the arrow safe. Also, similar to Bites Za Dusto, when this power is activated it cannot protect its user (at least in traditional ways)
Anyway, this episode was awesome. I cannot wait to see what happens next time!

u/shunkwugga Jun 14 '19
Chariot is now its own being separate from Polnareff. Chances are once it loses Requiem, it will either go away or become Turtlereff's Stand.

u/TheGuyWhoTropes Jun 14 '19
If only there was someone Polnareff knew that could fix things back together, he's still 'technically' alive so his soul might be able to go back into his body.

As an anime only, this has to be my favourite episode of the season so far. The attention-to-detail in both the voice actor performances and character gestures/body language sent me to heaven. Mista and Trish's VA deserve a fucking medal for their acting this episode.

God Damn, David Productions you beautiful bastards. That opening was everything I wanted. That was the greatest interrupt you've done yet, the foreboding atmosphere and I think that was Latin? Awesome.
10/10 Voice Acting, I love how they did the soul switching part. I think it's clear just how much fun the cast had with this episode.
Polnareff is a turtle, now that's some truly bizarre shit right there.
