従来のシリーズのようにスタンドバトル一辺倒でやらずにアメリカ横断レースやら遺体探しやら色んなことにチャレンジした意欲作に思えたが、後半の大統領とのやたらと何してるのか分かりづらいバトルをグダグダやりすぎて、レースと遺体集めの要素が疎かになってしまったように感じる。

グダグダの果てには主人公が覚醒して得た能力がラスボスのよく分からん能力のスタンドの突破に都合の良すぎる能力で、まーた5部のレクイエムと同じパターンかと思ったがあっちと違ってちゃんと燃える展開だったので許せる。

ジャイロの少年を救いたいと言うレース参加の根本的な動機もはぐらかされて1番の勝ち組だったポコロコは結局何の説明もない不明瞭なキャラで終わり、別の世界から来たディエゴの末路もしょぼい。
遺体のオチに関しては"遺体は誰のものでもあってはならない"とか言わせてまともなオチを描けなかったのを誤魔化して終了。いつもの荒木飛呂彦。





ですが、

・ようこそ男の世界への回
・ジャイロの死とlesson5
・ブレイク・マイハート　ブレイク・ユアハート

これらの名シーンを見れただけでも、充分この漫画を読んで良かったと思える良作。

ジョニィとジャイロのダブル主人公が上手く機能してたのとジョニィが"歩き出す"物語もちゃんと描けており、従来のシリーズに物足りなかったものがこのパートで満たされた。
リンゴォにディエゴ、ヴァレンタイン大統領などインパクトのある敵キャラも多くて良かった。
キャラのセリフに重みや説得力があり、絵柄も綺麗で格好良い。

て言うか、安っぽさのない海外ドラマみたいな絵柄と雰囲気のおかげで評価されてる雰囲気漫画みたいなとこありますよね。

Frequently categorized with both Bleach and Naruto as one of the Shonen Big Three, One Piece is a romantic tale of pirates, treasures ...talking reindeer, panties, flying skeletons, Takoyaki selling Octopuses, and oceans roaming with Sea Monsters the size of which can take down fleets of ships. Crazy enough for you? This is the world of One Piece.

Being categorized with Bleach and Naruto, on the surface this might strike an unfamiliar reader as another generic uncreative Shonen series; but truthfully, comparing One Piece to Bleach and Naruto would be like comparing Disney World to an elementary school playground.

Steel Ball Run, though its primary cast is a fraction of other Parts, contains some of the best characters in Jojo, and in my opinion some of the best characters of all time. Gyro Zeppeli qualifies for the latter. He's hilarious but he also has a tragic backstory that offers him plenty of motivation while keeping him in mystery. Diego Brando is an interesting spin on Dio Brando from The Phantom Blood and his Stand Scary Monsters is awesome. Lucy and Steven Steel are a great duo. Steven is barely in the story but he's a well written and unique supporting character and while Lucy doesn't really come into play until the finale she is still compelling. Wekapipo is one of the best side protagonists and works well as a foil to Gyro. Steel Ball Run also contains my favorite side villain, Ringo Roadaggin, and though his time spent in the story is brief it is arguably he pinnacle of Jojo.

As for the Jojo and main villain, they're simply the best. Johnny Joestar is a tragic lightning rod of Shakespearean proportions. It's not only impossible to not root for him, it is immoral. He has one of the greatest and most significant character arcs I've ever experienced, and his Stand Tusk is awesome to boot. He is my favorite Jojo bar none, despite being one of the most depraved ones. Johnny is immoral and sinful and honestly can be considered the villain of Steel Ball Run, but he is still a compelling force of nature.

Serving as a soft reset for Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Steel Ball Run takes the story in original and daring directions. But does it work? Oh who am I kidding? I'm going to be straight up.
I consider Steel Ball Run to be one of the greatest written works I've ever read.

STORY: 9/10
I will admit Steel Ball Run has a very, very slow start. In fact, Stands aren't even introduced until like 20 chapters in. That's another thing: Steel Ball Run is seinen instead of shounen. That means each chapter ranges from 35 to 60 pages long in comparison to the 20 page long chapters of the Jojo Parts before. This may seem daunting at first, but once you get invested in Steel Ball Run it feels like the story was too short, despite being the longest Jojo Part to date. Steel Ball Run also changes the Jojo formula in its fights. Stands are no longer humanoid for the most part, and they function more as superpowers than spirits who fight for you. Each fight is engaging and unique, dealing with psychological warfare more than throwing blind punches. This makes the fights in Steel Ball Run among the best in the series.

Steel Ball Run is also magnificently written with very great story arcs throughout. However, there is a controversial near the very end direction which I won't spoil that will surely throw some people off and make them consider it unnecessary. Eh, I didn't mind it too much, though it does undermine what made a previous Part so good to a degree. Despite that, it still contains one of the greatest and most emotional endings I've ever read.

ART: 10/10
Part 4 may have been the pinnacle of Araki's style, but Steel Ball Run is his pinnacle in his talent. Truly perfect art in all fields. The detail is much more in depth than previous Parts and character designs are on point.
