This happens to most things I like. I really liked JoJo’s Bizarre adventure when the anime was first coming out and I read all the manga and then when part 3 got super popular the fandom became completely insufferable to the point where I was stopped recommending the show or keeping up with any updates. I have also been really into AI/language models/machine image generation for years before ChatGPT exploded and now “being into AI” usually means “Exporting rational thought to a chatbot.” I also feel like reddit is like this.

Jojo’s was popular for a while before I got into it. I was very confused by part 1, because none of it lined up with what I was expecting from the memes and general online discourse. It was good, I liked it. Part 2 with the Pillar Men was the thing I watched that year.
Part 3 was awful. Jotaro is the worst jojo. They did my boy Joseph dirty. Hamon is much more interesting than stands. I could not force myself to finish watching part 3.

I felt the same about Stardust Crusaders but pulled through. The second half is substantially better with E34 (D’Arby the Gambler) being my favorite episode of the show.

I remember that episode, was a good episode. shame that nothing that happened in it actually mattered to the overarching plot.
