I love Narancia. Also, good to finally see more about Fugo.

Memes in this volume:
Smol Feat
Bringing this meme back bc it's relevant again
FUGO APPRECIATION
HE DESERVES MORE LOVE
This hurt me all over again, knowing Fugo's past and all (which wasn't as in-depth here as it was in the anime)
The anime backstory gives Purple Haze's behavior and Fugo's reluctance to use it so much tragic symbolism. Not going into details here, but damn... I just really want Strawberry Boy to be happy and find peace.

Creo que las muertes que llevan esta parte son brutales y viscerales, haciéndolo una de las partes más violenta. La manera que explican que dan su castigo a uno de los miembros del equipo para destituir al jefe de la mafia es brutal. Tengo mucha curiosidad si irá escalando el gore, como pasó en la última pelea con los cuervos.

3 estrellas.
Nuevamente presentando a los personajes, en este momento lo que quedaba de Narancia y Fugo.
Puede que sea mi imaginación pero Fugo me parece un tanto sospechoso, aunque sólo es una idea mía, con lo que estoy viendo me doy cuenta que en realidad está mostrando una fidelidad y lealtad al equipo de Buccelati.
Los escenarios y el arte son algo impresionante, y también como es que se representa el ambiente italiano que toma esta parte 5 de Jojos.
Los Stands sin importar su forma para mi son un enorme deleite visual.

This volume is the continuation of Narancia's Aerosmith battle and the first half of the 2nd Order from the boss:
Go to the ruins of Pompei,
A key has been left in the "Dog Mosaic" there.
Find it. That is the key to a ride that can safely bring my daugther to me.
Once you get on that ride, you will be able to move without fear of being detected by traitor pursuing you
-guess this the time they meet Mr. President

SEEING FUGO'S STAND IS SO COOL OMG. DEMON MODE TF??

Available English translation read
Narancia has only moments to defeat Formaggio before he and his Stand end up too little too late - yet when an order from the Boss sends half their team to Pompeii, it's Fugo who faces off against an opponent whose ability separates him from Giorno, Abbacchio - and even his own Stand?! Araki keeps a quick and tense pace in this popping entry.

Man in the Mirror fight was really great, cool start in this volume.

Last but not least, Fugo and his stand Purple Haze. They seem interesting specially the fact that even Fugo gets hurt once his stand is near him and there is nothing in the world he can do about it!

The battle with Little Feet definitely ran too long. The whole shrinking deal doesn't appeal to me too much, and I started to lose interest toward the end. There's no reason for such a prelim level fight to last 8 chapters. The end was solid though.
And stuff does start to pick up later on. I really appreciate how Golden Wind hasn't settled into a pattern. The squad is a lot less passive than the cast of other parts. They battles so far have arisen because they are actively working toward the goal of taking down the boss, but enemies show up to get in the way of that plan. They're very proactive, which means that the plot actually advances between fights, rather than settling back into a status quo in preparation for the next villain of the week.
Related to this, the bad guys actually try to run away. Their goal isn't to just kill the heroes. They want to get to Trish. So if they have an opportunity to do that, they will actively abandon the fight. This adds another layer to combat. As in addition to having to play subterfuge regarding stand abilities, the lads also have to keep information about Trish and their goals close to the chest. It's another set of information that gives battles even more of a mental tug-of-war. It's all about limiting what your opponent knows and coming up with clever solutions.
With that in mind, Purple Haze is fittingly offputting. In a game of finesse, he breaks the mold. Purple Haze is this terrifying cloud of death. I'm not sure if this is just me, but I envisioned his movement styles to be very much in that Jason sort of style. He moves stiffly and slowly, because it's just a matter of time until he catches you. When, not if, he catches you, death is guaranteed. And this thing is just as dangerous to allies as it is to foes. It's such a unique stand, in the sense that bringing him out is a gamble as to whether or not your friends will get killed in the crossfire. I love it.
Side bar, I think it would be cool to run into something about the Zepellis or Pillar Men at some point since we are in Italy. Investigating that dog mural reminded me of Caesar's father getting caught by the pillar men in a mural at the Colosseum. I'm pretty sure this doesn't happen, but I think it would've been a nice throwback, even if it didn't have to take up much screen time.

Este volumen incluye el nudo y desenlace de la espectacular pelea entre el Aerosmith de Narancia y el Little Feet de Formaggio, que me divirtió mucho más que la primera parte; el capítulo-puente donde les asignan una nueva misión en Pompeya; y la mitad de la pelea entre el Purple Haze de Fugo y el Man in The Mirror de Illuso, que también está muy interesante. En resumen, otro lindo muestrario de peleas y bolazos por igual. También es curioso cómo en esta misma última pelea refutan algo que Kakyoin dijo 35 tomos antes: "No existe tal cosa como el mundo de los espejos". O el dueño de Hyerophant Green le pifió en su veredicto o Araki cambió de idea en los cinco años y pico que pasaron entre un tomo y otro.
