>i heard a lot of complains about the ending but still haven't spoiled anything to myself, hopefully it will be worth the read even if the ending is shit.
IMO, the main problem is how long it dragged on. My pure page count, Part 8 is almost as long as Parts 1 - 3 COMBINED. Part 7 was rather long itself, but Part 8 is about 1/3rd longer. The ending is part of that problem since Araki dragged out the final fight for nearly 2 years real time. But the Funny Valentine fight lasted almost as long as well.
The difference was that most people got into JoJo (in the West) long after Part 7 ended, so they didn't experience the absolute drudgery that was waiting for the Valentine fight to end. They could binge read the whole thing. Part 8 was different as most people (in the West) got into JoJo around 2015/2016 when the part was only half over.
>also what are your thoughts on part 9 so far?
I don't like either of the main Joestars, but so far the story and fights have been better than both Parts 7 and 8. I sincerely hope Howler is the main villain of the part and he doesn't become a footnote after the current arc.
