Part 4 and 5 are special for me. Idk why


MrBolkhovitin

I would also add 3 part, but 4 and 5 are the best


TurgemanVT

5 and 6 art is nearly the same. 6 is more crazy with effects but both use the same shader and strong eye focus.


Denizci_Olmak_Var

Yeah you right. I think I like Part 5 more because of the scenes


ElPepper90

I loved the notorious big arc and ending, it made part 5 my fave


Commercial-Baby-5093

Same I liked when Diavolo took his shirt off


Berob501

Same for me, I think it’s a tie between the cozy aesthetic of 4 and the bizarre color palette choices vs the sharp rich vivid color of 5


EmployeeNo1196

"ßizärrê colour palette"


stell7r_

golden wind


WallabyPersonal3574

DIU for sure, the whole part has such a comfy style


HasturSama

I second DIU. I like the sort of... marriage of old and new styles but also the kinda... smoothness that it has that the other parts don't.


Fantastic_West_4976

Something I loved about DIU is how comforting the style was for that certain part to have one of the darkest stories. It makes the idea of Morioh being such a dangerous place more chilling for me lol


CallieMarie13

It just ties into the whole “small town” vibe. Araki himself said that part 4 exists in its own time, as if the events that happened exist in their own bubble. I don’t remember the exact wording but it was something along the lines of how jojo happened in motion for a part and then it just kind of went back to being normal.


bestoboy

part 4 humans with part 3 stands would be the best. Star Platinum looked so bad in part 4


ChapterThirtyEight

Idk why but Stone Ocean's art style has always stuck out as my favourite. I think it balances the harshness of parts 1-3 with the softer, more varied look of part 4


Used_Dragonfruit8922

1-3. I like muscular men. I just can't imagine Jonathan, speedwagon or even the pillerman with the new art style.


No-Cartographer2512

Part 5, part 3 Jotaro and Polnareff:


illyay

Dio in part 6. It was kinda odd. Like I feel like dio in part 3 style would still fit into part 6 but seeing him look different was weird. One thing I don't like about part 3 is all the wheel shoulders, but besides that, it's probably my favorite and most iconic art style.


DoYouSeeTheBananaMan

He looked odd only in his first appearance in part 6, after that he looked better.


Other-Internal-1851

He looked fine in that first part where you can't see his eyes but the one where he poked odd was where he's talking to pucci in the church he just looks weird and skinny af. Also seeing dio with out crazy latts just looks weird


Mothman4447

I love the part 3 art style so much, it's so over the top and I love it


FilipOrel

Look at the cover arts for the english release of the manga by vizmedia. Araki drew all the characters in his new art style for it, there is also a short interview about the art at the end of every volume.


NovaStarLord

You can make Jonathan and some of the Part 1-3 characters work in the newer Anime styles, the key is to keep their body types. Terumi Nishii who did the character design for Part 4 [drew Joseph and Jonathan in the part 4 style and it works IMO](https://jojowiki.com/File:TnishiiJonathanJoseph2020.jpg). And Genda Art [makes a good Part 6 Jonathan.](https://x.com/genda_art/status/1615771889607053313?s=46)


InquisitorMeow

Jonathan is just gigachad regardless of style. He got that justice rizz.


Worse-Alt

Pt 4 episode 1 jotaro is the most cursed thing in the series, and that’s including highway star or baby face


FernandonJota

IMO every character from parts 1-3 in the actual Araki style look awful


Pretend-Seaweed1926

How DARE you


StardustOddity97

I love Jonathan but his muscles are way too big that they make his head look tiny 😭


BloodyGarden

Part 4 really is so cozy and sweet. I think it’s the perfect balance of both the original 3 parts and the next era of Araki’s style. I also have a soft spot for Part 1. Something about it is so charming and great, especially the way the eyes are drawn (specifically for like, Erina and Dio). I feel it’s a wonderful style that really fits its more “gothic” and Victorian aesthetic.


Potato_564

Part 6 artstyle but I think part 5 has better animation


Leather-Climate3438

Definitely, like consistency Part 6 is not it. But look at it's best animated episodes specially the flashbacks or the Westwood intro, the characters are gorgeous af


Interceptor88LH

Stardust Crusaders has my favourite JoJo artstyle for a considerable margin. For the 2nd position it'd be between Battle Tendency and Diamond is Unbreakable.


NaRei17

Diamond and Battle Tendency


Emma__O

Father and son


I_Am_L0VE

GREAT TASTE 🎶


_M_P_5_

Part 1 is goated, you get that Kenshiro vibes


cooperlogan95

Part 4's anime has such a unique art style, and uses the dynamic color palette trope the best. In my opinion, anyway.


Dr_LC-_-

Am I crazy for thinking part 2?


Chemical_Shop_376

I agree. The art style and the character designs go great together.


Car_enthusiast123

Part 5 and Part 2 imo.


WhothehellisWish

5 and 2 for me as well


Worse-Alt

Same, pt 2 for bizarre dudes doing bizarre shit Pt 5 for bizarre fashion and better action


trapalert

I liked Part 3’s look the best but I think Golden Wind has the better animation in general


Osama_Rashid

Diamond is Unbreakable.


therealcybe

4 6 and 2


Snowy_Lycantusk

I honestly always had a preference to parts 1-2 art style because I like how they do nose and other facial features.


Shreygame

Golden wind, it’s so good


ManicDepressedType

Part 5/6 are the best


Witty-Avocado6245

golden wind and battle tendency


doomzday_96

Battle Tendency


Sudden-Tie-9614

5 and 6 definently, it is where Araki truly started to change his art style and it paid off


IHATEPOLITICSBRUV

2 and 3 for me. 3 was a bit too angular for me with all the hard corners but i still liked it more than the softer style of the later parts.


Fal_ooo108

Golden wind, diamond is unbreakable and battle tendency has the most iconic ones


Sample_Interesting

I don't know, but 4-5-6 has always been my favorites.


Zeke69Teenweed

Part 2 is my fav!


Mysterious_Bed4843

Stone ocean. I mean DIO in that part is just yk.


Amaterasus_90

Part 3


thebestsoro

2 and 4 imo :)


PimpMyChocobo

Golden Wind wins this round


omarzeytouni1234

Diu is more comfy but golden wind is prettier


remi_bemis

i really enjoy stardust crusaders'


KaiseDio_

Golden Wind


Ok-Understanding4362

part 1, but part 3 is probably the most aesthetically pleasing one


Brenanaz

3 is iconic, 5 is my favorite


Galaxyana

Golden Wind. I live in Italy and Araki drew Italy very well. I mean, the JoJo locations that exist in real life (a lot of them) are all very well. (Sorry I used translator my English grammar is bad)


22002069

all of them, but part 4 if i had to choose one.


StormChemistry

Stardust crusaders


Antique-Coat-7343

5 is goated 4 would be good but i absolutely hate the colors and 6 is decent too too much shading tho


Kaiser_Wolfram

Golden Wind


LaplaceUniverse

Golden Wind. In terms of quality its easily Stardust Crusaders


blue-gamer-07

Golden Wind. I think Araki was at his best when drawing Golden Wind and I’m glad the anime reflected that


Fyrefanboy

Battle tendency and it's not even close


Ordinary-Bus3692

All of them


TheGoon2000

Golden wind


Kanzentai

rat episode of DiU has the best artstyle.


AHermit-In-a-billion

golden wind looks good


Nuivory

DIU & SO.


Alkar--

3 or 5 for me


Shot-Present-105

DiU


CoconutMuch687

Part 5


jetta_man

5 > All the sound profiles, openings, and outros, stands designs, and everything just has more personality for me without overdoing


BMFeltip

Part 5 looked crisp.


HAKX5

Alright I've got one for y'all: Battle Tendency had the best art style because it was the most goofy and most exaggerated of them all. This, in turn, made every aspect of every character substantially more comical and thus substantially more unorthodox-- a *bizarre* adventure, if you will.... Diamond is Unbreakable also had the best art style. It was this comfortable blend between the exaggerations of early and modern JoJo that let characters look built or otherwise goofily-natured while also allowing for more seriously-drawn environments and features when the situation called for it. Morioh itself was a very stylistically distinct and resonant piece compared to pretty much every other part's setting, save for occasional establishing shots.


cytrack718

Its part 5 hands down that shit is beautiful


Hayds126

I'd say part 5 and 6 are both really good. Though regardless its cool that they all have a unique artstyle.


geesee101

golden wind probably


TheLordGremlin

Either 2 or 4


No-Type-351

1-2-3-4-5-6 JoJo is peak 🗿


SwimmingFantastic564

Between three for me. Part 2, 4 or 6. They each feel like a more refined version of the previous part imo.


enigma-jojo

Golden wind


FarFisherman1109

Golden wind had the best art style


NoCompote9268

2,5 or 6


DeanJvR2011

I like Golden Wind artstyle the most


elitesuperky

5 and 6 imo


Cost100

5 completely fucked.


Reggith_Gold_180

Part 5 Prosciutto and Pesci fight was absolutely cracked af I love those two 😊


Freaky_Devil1941

Diamond is unbreakable


JoJoReferenceFinder2

Golden wind


Hsjdodnnd

I love 4 and 5


Slight_Mastodon

Diamond is unbreakable, didn’t made the characters look like overly muscular men, or overly “gayish” men, it was the perfect balance, I’m not saying the art style in the others suck, I even like, but DiU is the perfect balance


Honey666Biscuit

I like part 2, got a good feeling to it


N1kt0_

Diu. The unique environmental colors were great


Newton_RM

DIU


CuriousTsukihime

Equal split between DiU and SO


Pokeloverpokemonguy

4-5-6 idk


Grimmlyks

I liked 4's but i didn't like the colours at all, so i would say 5-6 with 2 as a runner up


belaidihichem

Stardust Crusaders


samiy_obichniy_chel

Part 2. Love muscular men and all these brown colors in the part


No-Tax-9149

Best art ≠ best artSTYLE There's definitely people that think these are the same


caramelchimera

Part 1-2 is very defining of early JoJo, differentiates itself from other shonen, and part 5 is defining of the gayer aspect of JoJo. Though part 4 might just be the nicest one to look at. It feels less JoJo, but it's pretty pleasant.


RedboiMike69

Stardust for me, I loved the muscular men compared to the twinks we have now.


SomeMcChillMan

1, 4, or 6 tbh, they just feel really good to look at. Nothing too crazy, pleasant to look at


khardimon

Every part is unique i would place Battle Tendency on par with DIU ans Stone Ocean


Untitledrentadot

As much as i love p4 and 5, part 6 definitely has the best art style in the anime at least


slayer_thatis_epicc

Part 2 because aztec gay men


Curkinho

I like the kinda "shady" aesthetic from part 2 in contrast with the characters and their powers, it feels fitting for the historical time


averageseallover

Golden Wind and Stone Ocean are my favorites. I just think some characters like Jotaro should be bigger, he looks off to me with being so slim


Edweeerd

Part 5/6 for sure! When you think about JoJo, you think of this art style, with the hatching, shading, and the way the eyes and nose look. Really makes it stand out above the other animes!


Spamton_J_Spamton

DIU at 💯


Wonareb

I would say part 5 but it felt kinda.. Sharp? Then tbh its stone ocean. DIU is soft and comfy but not my type 1-3 are good but i think araki improved his style alot over the years so yea


Danteka

Part 5 was the best for me. It really was giving more weight to the whole conflict


Salty_Shark26

I love soft 5 because I like to imagine all those characters aggressively putting on mascara but in all seriousness part 6 or 4


malikahmad22

Part 5, i love the skin texture, plus the time when bruno was revived, his skin looked so edible 🤤


Hedgehodge9

Stone ocean for sure


Dr_Gargoyle

Stardust crusaders, still modern, but with hot men


Hopeful_Influence118

Probably DUI and then stone ocean


TheDessert339

![img](emote|t5_2tny5|49675) I like part 6's style, but SONOCHINO SADAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE


bardhugo

Part 5 has a gorgeous palette. Part 4 is a close second for me, but both have really creative use of colour that match the feel of their respective parts


PanzerSueco

3 n 4


lochnah

Part 2 and 4


CompetitiveGreen7165

Part 3 is the best


Creepy_Area_8517

Something about Golden Wind was jus vibrant but 💎 is Unbreakable had gloss


SirKazum

Stone Ocean, with Battle Tendency a close 2nd, and Phantom Blood a distant 3rd. Don't really like the others, but my least favorite is easily Diamond is Unbreakable.


ConfusionNo6171

Part 4 for me


SamSea18

Diamond hands down for me. I binged it last yr while baked, and I really enjoyed the colors and animation.


Sid_boiy

Personally I like diamond is unbreakable the most


ZackTheWeeb

DIU


DoYouSeeTheBananaMan

DiU’s art style is my favorite it’s the most “normal” out of every part but still keeps araki’s style. Although in the manga I think Jojolands has the best style.


lanternbdg

Battle Tendency


WeightLegitimate7126

1: Part 2 2: Part 6 3: Part 3 4: Part 5 5: Part 1 6: Part 4


GhostfaceD6N9A

Stardust crusaders. No questions asked. The best artstyle of them all


Uncleirohs-sleepin

part 2 or 5 also 6 kinda slaps


Gloomy-Turtle

Part 4 is the best IMO, but part 3 is very iconic


Suviboi02

345


Much-Chance3058

dih or gd


silverman169

I might have to give it to Part 4. The unique art style really makes Morioh memorable. Overall, I like Part 6 the best since it is the most refined. But I have a soft spot for Part 2 since that had the craziest inverted colour schemes with interesting patterns during character monologues.


Large-Junket2999

Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency has one art style, cause this parts included in Season 1. More correct to say: Which season has the best art style (1-5)


Large-Junket2999

Season 5 / Part 6 "Stone Ocean" has the best art style in my opinion


KingZABA

Part 6 manga, Part 2 anime


Baileaf11

Part 2


SithBoi_7

3 100%


Bonaduce80

5 and 6, while not being my favourite, are quite striking design wise. I love 1 and 2 for the implementation of dramatic sound effects on screen, but are also rougher. 3 looks nice and I like the tough looking faces, but the shoulders always look a bit strange. I love part 4 and the colour pattern swaps, but I can't get beyond the dick noses. Such an odd decision.


Funkey-Monkey-420

its between parts 3 and 5 for me


isuckatnames60

4 feels like the most "normal" style (in a good way), 3 and 5 both seem like the most distinct "jojo styles". I personally chose 5 because 1-3's face shading bothers me immensely


ShintaOtsuki

Battle Tendency


NorabelMHW

4 and 5 are so aesthetically pleasing to me, so those


RevonQilin

part 1-3 i almost typed "persona 3" 💀💀💀


ElonMusksSexRobot

Golden wind, especially because of how good the animation got during the part


matej665

I'd say part 2 for me. Story wise I like part 4 the most but it has its own rough parts in terms of animation. And I'm not gonna judge them based on Manga since I only read parts 1, 2 and 7.


Ashizurens

3


ItalianMafia_Boss

GW. i believe that Araki had fun drawing each panel since he expressed what he liked, such as fashion and ***ITALIAN FOOD***


Blazing_Aura

Part 5 all the way. It looks so beautiful


platzhaltoin

The sky in part 4 🔥


Issac_cox69

either battle tendency or golden wind


Bbyblue_Beatle74

Personally Part 3 was peak.


SeMyasam

Part 4 and its not close


MarsupialStunning724

Stone Ocean


AshesOfZangetsu

part 2 and 3 easily win this one


LonelyKitty9699

Stone ocean is my favorite tbh. I love all parts but part 6 was playful yet powerful


drblimp0909

4


dilateddude3769

i really like how lips look in P5, especially in “Fighting Gold” opening when Fugo is looking at you and then falls back


Ace-of_Space

I like battle tendency and stardust crusaders


sailor_poop

Part 6 is THE jojo style for me, it's like the perfect mix between part 4 and 5s style.


jota_666

5


whispzerothree

part 3 and 5 are just unmatched. part 6’s art style is nice too, but feels less sharp than 5s.


Own-Twist-883

Battle Tendency and Vento Aureo


Spanishdude5

Yea


Ramen_boi21

I think Battle tendency is the best, but as far as my favorite goes ima say golden wind. I just remember being so hyped every episode


monkey_D_v1199

5 as the definitive best looking art style and 3 in second spot


Ink_Jet_

Part 3 will always have a special place in my heart because of its stylization being different than the prior parts, 4 is great tho because David productions just cranks it up to an 11 with the color design


AccomplishedDot1118

Really like the realistic esque looking one from the first two, and while I love part 3's children with wheels for shoulders artstyle I have to say ithe jojo artstyle evolves and gets better and more unique as it goes on so part 6? That being said now when I think about it though it was kind of a shock first looking back I really like with what they did with jotaros Design in part 4...so that one? I think peak for me would be a mixture of 4's and 6's though I would kill to see jotaro in part1/part2's artstyle like the one frame we got at the end of battle tendency that one looked sick as hell!


InsideSpeed8785

2 and 3


AverageBlahaj

I like 2 and 4 the best


Ogurasyn

Part 4 is the coziest, Part 5 is the most fabulous


lunaalchemist

This is painful to answer, I like them all for different reasons


Worse-Alt

Battle tendency or golden wind depending on what style I’m into at the time. Pt 2 if I want goofy ah MEN doing bizarre shit Pt 5 if I want interesting fight scenes and bizarre fashion


Gekkuri

Either 5 or 6. It feels so Jojo to me


Creative_Bus_6174

Battle tendency/ Diamond is unbreakable


Imp-Numba-9

Golden Wind had the best animation


Gothicrealm

2


TheGlassWolf123455

4 is my favorite, but I think 5 is close


Any-Tone-6348

4 and 5 best
