A lot of people read more on it than is actually depicted, searching for some kind of redemption for a totally wrong approach.

Truth is painfull.

Pucci created a new universe that repeat itself from start to the triggering of acceleration. All living beings were caged in that cycle. The only one that can change fate and things is Pucci itself. So practically speaking he's now invincible.

When Pucci die by his own hand, unable to trigger the cycle, that pocket universe expire.

I was totally about main characters die and have "normal" universe continue without them. The logic of Made in Heaven power and how Pucci was cheated is really nice and smart.

Ok, that uncanny powerfull stand was defeated. They all died in the attempt. I'm fine with it, it was incredibly strong after all. The world continue without them but finally that incredible adventure ended.

But Araki had the wrong idea to find a way to show main characters *** once again *** for an emotional impact. As they ARE died, he came up with the (murdering) idea that the universe wasn't the one we knew, but ANOTHER DIFFERENT ONE.

T_T

With slight changed details. Oh, well, Irene/Joeline wasn't caged and Ankis/Anasui got the girl. But if you'll mind a bit, Irene got the Joestar mark.

The universe was regenerated and whatever happened in the past... WHO KNOWS how happened.

Dio was there, no reason at all he shouldn't be there, but maybe called Pjotr and fought againt Jhollo Joestar in old France.

All the stories were not erased, but changed in a way you'll never knows. And so the stories that you liked so much... never happened. They struggled against Santana? No. "Ceasaaaaar!" - no. The moving story of Abbacchio - no.

And the stupid thing is that Pucci is there the same T_T. He's called maybe Pollo and could the same meet Pjotr and get Made in Heaven.

Araki for the sole reason of creating an emotional set of 5 pages, halted the brain and triggered the WORST thing actually in literature, the "waking up from a dream" ending. That tell all of your emotions so far were fakes. With a string attached that make it even the worst possible version of this bad narrative: no "key" to reread the past, that now is totally unknown.

"This is the killer... no wait, the things are different now!"

"So... what?"

"I don't tell you."

I don't know the fiture of characters and NOT EVEN the past... I read NOTHING for years!

A large number of people that enjoyed JoJo barely dare to admit that such a good writer could do such a terrible mistake. But that's the truth - he did a mistake. he's human and could do mistake - Stone Ocean ending is such mistake.

So, in the end, is not a matter of personal tastes, Part 6 ending is technically bad on an objective sense. Then again, Part 6's ending is better than Part 5's basic fairy tale "they all lived happily ever after" ending.
