COnsidering how much Jojo inspired Street Figther and a lot of other capcom properties, it makes sense for the company to repay the favor by making a game based on the manga.

I tried this on one of the last arcade left near my place, more specifically an arcade machine in a bowling palace full of various roms.

I rememeber a friend of mine being a bit disappointed of the lack of part 1 or part 2 characters, but it kinda makes sens ecosnidering that the Part 3 cast is the one that will make more sense for the gameplay formula capcom planned for this.

Infact, considering the roster, you could say that almost each character in a puppet fighter, able to sent their stands in front of them or in other different ways. The stand is also ablwe to take damage though, meaning that sending your muscular soul manifestation to do damage can be detrimental, an a steady approach is always recommended... this is a cool mechanic that makes this game stand out compared to a lot of fighting games at the time.

THe presentations and spriteworks are also incredibly immaculate, and gives so much life to the locations seen in the manga / anime. And the roster is also really creative, giving a playable role to some of the fan favorites enemies too, like Mariah or Hol Horse.

Considering the way most of their powers works, the roster may result incredibly unbalanced... one specific s''t eating bird is especially to consider if you wanna feel pain while playing this game.
But regardless, it is a really solid title from the arcade era and it is worth revisiting even today.
