Someone's gotta make it, it's gotta happen at some point. So I'll do it, now. Lets start with favorite stand, the most diverse topic, probably.
Personally loved c-moon, the design, the concept, not simply because of how powerful it was but because its just cool. simply controlling gravity to such an extreme extent, probably one of the coolest concept for a stand that only lasted about 2 seconds
I'm the one person in existence who thinks part 1 is the best
Favourite stand, though, has to be Paisley Park.

I have watched a bit of the JoJo OVA.
I was pleasantly surprised to see how nice it looks.

now, allow me to preface this by saying that i haven't read jojolion yet. i prefer to read things that are finished because i struggle to remember things between updates under most mediums.
with that being said.
i can fairly confidently say that my favourite stands, while being incredibly biased towards my two favourite characters, are spice girl and stone free.
spice girl is more in the design department, for me. sure, her ability is really cool. it's just saddening that we hardly saw it other than in two major fights, and probably a couple of times outside of fights that i'm merely forgetting about.
but look at her.
she looks like she can take care of herself while beating everyone in her path to death, all while figuring out the quickest method to do it.
this is peak female performance. to be frank, real people just do not stack up to how great spice girl is.
stone free, on the other hand, is one of my favourites purely because jolyne is also one of my favourite characters. my favourite jojo by far, at the very least. stone free leans more on the basic side in terms of general stand abilities, though the joestar's don't have the best history of having super complex stands.
Look okay. Yes part 7 was amazing i’m glad we can all agree. But fiddle was right how the fuck is VA the seconds worst. Anyway
7>2>5>1>4>3>6>8
Now i’m not saying jojolion is bad but trying to read with the updates leaves me forgetting wtf is going on or who half the villains are cause none of them are important. Not to mention nothing is ever confirmed. Theories make sense but none of them are canon. Crazy part, the whole thing is good though. All 8 parts

Part 4 is the best, followed by Part 2. The anime really does Part 2 justice, and Kira Yoshikage is the best Jojo villain period.

parts 6 and 1 are the best, 4 just tailing behind. the post-reboot parts are probably on even footing in the middle, followed by 5, 3 and 2.

I haven't gotten to parts 6-8, so I can't comment on those
But part 4 is the best part and part 5 is god awful, and I will defend that to my grave.
Clearly even depicting yourself as the one who loses this fight, now bask in the glory of Requiem, you will never reach the truth of your opinions
I could argue you how absolutely detrimental Part 5 is to the overall series, why GER is stupid, how terribly written King Crimson's powers are, how the anime is a step down from the manga, why Giorno is a badly written character, why Bruno should have been the JoJo for the part, why BEACHBOYS, and how terrible it is Mista doesn't get a lick of action without it being overshadowed by someone else entirely. I could argue that.

Instead I'll sum it all up in one simple picture.
That picture sucks and i hate you for it (i kid obviously)
But come on now. Are you. Seriously suggesting. That —despite all of Jonathan’s descendants turning out to be complete chads who almost never faced a real issue, to the point of josuke was able to bullshit his way to victory against a stand that could just. Blow up whatever the fuck it wanted. Partially by literally reviving okuyasu, a fate equal in bullshit to brunos revival— DIO’s own children, yknow children of a basically godlike ( or literally godlike if you consider part six ) figure, should have all turned out like this

Yeah tha design's amazing
OK, you wanna know what's BUUUUUUULLSHIT about Bruno's revival? The fact that it doesn't work. Bruno's basically a zombie with no life in him at all. Which is fucking stupid to me because here I was thinking that, hm, Giorno's powers are to GIVE LIFE. I wonder, why isn't he capable of bringing people back to full life? And yeah, Araki has said before "Oh, you can't escape death. You can't revive people." Except...that contradicts with JOSEPH COMING BACK TO LIFE, JOSUKE BRINGING OKUYASU BACK, AND JOSUKE LITERALLY BRINGING A SMALL CHILD WHO WAS NOTHING BUT DISAPPEARING ETHEREAL DUST BACK TO LIFE!
I'd have less problems with part 5 if Giorno's abilities were consistent.
