Ethan Lebel gave his thoughts, stating, “I haven’t watched Jojo in a while; I only got up to around season 2. But seeing all of the excitement around this new season makes me want to pick it up again! The designs of the characters are super cool, and from what I’ve heard this new season is a big deal.”
