well Naurto always sucked, so the movie got to really hard to make it worse. but then again they fucked up something as simple as Dragonball.
 
The last episode of Diamond is Unbreakable aired today, and it did not disappoint. Unfortunately, there was not a teaser for Vento Aureo, but we can safely assume that it's being made because 1.) DiU did very well and 2.) in Japan, Vento Aureo is only second in terms of popularity to Stardust Crusaders.

Also, the scene we've been waiting 39 weeks for:

Great Days has a Vento Aureo confirmation, or at least it sorta does. I'm on my phone eight now so I can't get caps but at one point in the background a "to be continued"-shaped arrow goes over a sign that says GW 2001 (Golden Wind/Vento Aureo and 2001 was the year it took place in), so it's a slight hint sort of like how there was that hospital in part 3 with the Morioh logo on it.

Someone posted the full studio release of Great Days Unit Ver., which played during the epilogue. It's sung by every single person who has done a JoJo opening up to this point, 9 people in all.
  • Tommy Hiroaki (Sono Chi no Sadame)
  • Coda (Bloody Stream)
  • Jin Hashimoto (Stand Proud)
  • The DU (Jun Shirota, Taisuke Wada, and Jeity) (Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town)
  • Batta (Chase)
  • Karen Aoki and Daisuke Hasegawa (Great Days)

You know I never thought I'd see a JoJo villain die in such a realistic way, usally their deaths are ridiculous and insane, and while Kira did later on go through something much worse, still felt surprised to see a big bad in this series get defeated in a way that could very well happen in real life.

It's even better than that.

Kira's death is extremely ironic. Throughout the entire story, Kira's had incredible luck. Evading the Duwang Gang, getting BITES ZA DUSTO at the time he needed it the most, putting his wrist watch in his breast pocket only to have to block an otherwise fatal blow, etc. Kira often boasts of his incredible luck and says that fate is on his side.

But eventually, luck has to run out, and that happened to Kira at the worst possible time. He gets fucking run over by the ambulance sent to help him, which has to be one of the unluckiest things that can happen to a person.

Reading it then seeing it adapted is twice the fun.

This. I picked up the manga after the first season of the Stardust Crusaders anime, and I stopped somewhere in part 8. Having read it a while ago is awesome because I remember the key details while also forgetting the minutiae of some Stand battles, so when I get to see it hashed out in the anime it's just as fun as the first time I read it, if not moreso because the presentation of the anime is top-tier. Yeah, sometimes we get shit like that one Killer Queen still, and it doesn't always look perfect animation-wise, but the color combinations, pacing, visual structure and design, and the stellar voice actors make up for it.
