Though there’s an awkwardly placed flashback, the premiere has otherwise great pacing and stunning animation that make this a thrilling start to a new adventure.

If you’re a pre-existing fan of this series, then you’re likely to enjoy this latest installment that continues to faithfully adapt the overall hilarity, tone, and excitement of Hirohiko Araki’s beloved manga series. But even first-time viewers are likely to get swept away by the colorful characters, fast-moving plot, and absurd humor.
