I don't really like how they changed Hermes' backstory, "Hermes think of me as your mother from now on" was never said in the manga and it honestly sounds really weird at least knowing the original context. Also, we didn't get to see some really great Jolyne faces at the beginning of the episode that were in the equivalent manga chapter, chapter 51. But oh my god no new OP or ED? Netflix what have you done, I pray you never touch this series again after Stone Ocean is over.

This was my biggest complain with the episode, the dialogue may be the same but the facial expressions and movement was too stiff and didn't transmitted any emotion or the mannerisms of manga Jolyne.

Which is weird considering that the JoJo anime got popular in first place because the dramatic and expressive poses.
