Personally, I feel that contrary to popular belief, this part was much worse than parts 3 and 4. They had lots of good ideas, but those were dwarfed by the strange mistakes in writing. Araki conveniently forgot about the concept of a new ability being added to a Stand used during the fight against Black Sabbath. It pains me how villains became conveniently dumb, heroes became conveniently weak, and abilities conveniently forgotten for the sake of plot. Requiem abilities existed for 2 episodes and were forgotten instantly. In the end, it really felt like Araki wrote himself into a corner and pulled out GER and all of its abilities. King Crimson seemed to have no explanation for many of its abilities, and everything after the fight with Metallica was confusing, rushed, and unexplained. I loved the humor and nonstop fun-to-read story, but the flaws ruined it for me.
