I've been waiting for this one. Steel Ball Run is the Second Best Jojo Part for me--behind SDC--and the only reason it isn't shining at the top on a pedestal is because I'm a snob about anime/manga trying to incorporate religious, (particularly Catholic/Christian) themes. Sorry, Araki, but like every other anime I've seen or manga I've read you only just don't fail as hard with this stupid "saint corpse" thing. Now that's just me, and with that said OH MY GOSH I LOVED IT TO PIECES! For the most part I love it for all the small things, like a horse race across the continent, and well. . .DInOsars. But the characters were all amazing. Lucy Steel turned out to be one awesome lady, and the dynamic between Gyro and Johnny was awesome to see. Cameo's of old characters like Avdol and Enya were great while they lasted, and there wasn't a side character I thought was uninteresting. Albeit, I was a bit dissapointed that none of the horses had a stand, and that we didn't get to see much development on the part of Pocoloco or Soundman; and this makes me wonder what would have happened if it had taken the original course and stayed as more of a spin-off or side story rather than suddenly jumping in as "Part of the Canon Jojoverse". Overall, Steel Ball Run is an awesome work and I can't wait to see it animated more than any other Jojo Part, "Nyo-ho!"

Oh, and here's hoping for Hot Pants as Diego's partner in the Eye's of Heaven game! X3
