| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The Confession, is about this guy who is disdainful to this homeless man, goes on a rant saying that you have to work for the things you want to obtain, and then forces him to do the workload in order to desperately obtain the sandwich, as of result the homeless man collapsed and dies, after this shock, he then sees a stand/dead ghost grab him from underneath and tells him that he is to haunt him on his happiest day of his life, suddenly when that day came the spirit of the begger possessed his daughter right in front of his eyes and revealed that he assisted the man's happiness from behind the scenes in order for this moment of his life in which the ghost explained that he wanted fate to judge this man. Basically a popcorn match where he has to catch it after throwing it up in the air three times with success, after 2 successful attempts fate has been decided and the 3rd attempt was a failure, after a moment of realization, his head was completely sliced off with a slate of blood. The End. Mod Edit: Properly formatted thread. |

| Meh story... wanted to see more Rohan but ended up with an old fart and worker who suddenly got rich, even the ending was open. |

| Well, I didn't expect the twist that the man tricked the vengeful ghost by making his servant pretend to be him. Was nice to see again Koichi, Okuyasu and Yukako. I'm glad they fixed the look of both OVA!Koichi and OVA!Okuyasu, since now they don't look as awkward as in the first OVA (Yukako also looked pretty). Also, since Koichi was talking about going to Italy, I wonder if this is a prequel to Vento Aureo. |
 |
| And I thought that confessional scene in part 6 was pretty messed up. Also, Yukako in this style looks sooooo great. |

| Aye, I still remember that epic twist all these years later. These Rohan OVAs have been excellent adaptations. Here's hoping we get some more down the line. |
 |
| Hey, more JoJo content is more JoJo content, so I'm not complaining. Now please get to making Part 6. |
 |
| That hobo looked like an old Abaraccio to me. Also i really don't think his grudge was justified, it's not like the guy had any obligation to feed him. |

| Another great episode, I actually quite liked these episodes. The first two were already impressive and to then get these two extra was a real nice addition! Would actually love to see a full side story series with him! |
 |
| I don't know if his grudge was justified, he didn't kill him, it was an accident. Amazing episode anyway. |
 |
| Not the best story but it was still cool, overall a really good spin-off on Rohan ! |
 |
| I like how the JoJo series always takes a simple thing and makes it more intense by 100. Another power that spans generations. |
 |
| I personally think that The Confessional was actually one of the better Rohan stories I've read and seeing it animated was a blast. They made things a lot more intense and left me on the edge of my seat once again! I'd also like to confess that I was actually taken aback by the twist in the end because the popcorn part was the only thing I could recall from back then. Yukako in Part 8 style in the Rohan manga was already cute enough but she looks like a damn goddess here in Part 5 style ❤❤❤ |
 |
| Bad Rohan pretending to be a priest is not something a good christian boy should do! Incredibly intense popcorn catching scene we got here. Poor guy being terrorised for a stupid unwarranted grude. He had no obligation to feed the hobo who could have just declined the work and moved on. But man I didn't expected his trick to stay alive. |
 |
| Thx u comments for explaining the ending to me the guy made his servant get plastic surgery and got killed instead. They had said that in the episode too but made 0 fucking sense to me at the time. |

| This was really fun, but since I had already read the manga (this is what I get for being impatient) I enjoyed The Run way more. Is this the last one or are there gonna be more? I'm almost sure that years ago when just two episodes had come out, only that amount of episodes was listed on MAL, so that might be what's happening here, too. |
| Don't get people who say the grudge was unwarranted. It was completely warranted. He could have said no and chased the bum away. But the bum WAS willing to work, and the asshole made sure to make the work as hard as possible, just to make someone else suffer. So the ghost didn't have a grudge about him not feeding him, but about making him suffer. Any decent human being would have giving him some food after seeing he was wiling to work, but this asshole made him work HARDER after seeing he was willing to work. THAT is the cause of the grudge. And it is very warranted. |
 |
| Can someone clear me this ? How did the moustache man( the one who confessed actually.... whose head wasn’t cut) saved himself using the head cut guy ?.... I mean he did say that reconstructive surgery thing but I couldn’t get it. |
“ If there was no one else within a 5-kilometer radius from Shimamura, and she was in a deep sleep and an all-knowing deity just happened to reassure me that she wasn’t going to wake up the next 24 hours, maybe I’d get bored after 23 hours and I might kiss her once to relieve some boredom... ” |
HEIWA_NO_SENSEI said: Can someone clear me this ? How did the moustache man( the one who confessed actually.... whose head wasn’t cut) saved himself using the head cut guy ?.... I mean he did say that reconstructive surgery thing but I couldn’t get it. From what I understand, the moustache guy is actually the guy whom the beggar has a grudge for. The guy who got his head cut off was his servant, who had reconstructive surgery to look like his master so that the beggar would confuse him for the guy that he had a grudge for. |

| I feel thus spoke kishibe Rohan is the best JoJo's david pro has put out specifically episode 9 the run since the art and animation are great, the HFTF reference was great, it kept me engaged the whole way through. i really hope they give this same treatment to part 6 if we get it, since it could change the perception on the part similar to part 5 when it got animated. Part 6 also has parts the would look great animated heavy weather and made and heaven come to mind. Overall this is my favorite animated jojo thing that has every been produced. its scratched my itch for animated jojo's |
 |
| wait did I watch the episodes in the wrong order? Wasnt popcorn the first and Rohan casually flexing how fit he is this one? Anyway this was really nice, the animation at times was absolutely great and the stories are all a little uncanny. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would describe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| Netflix f'd up... it says this is episode 1, when apparently it's the last episode of the entire OVA... Great ep though. Amazing animation and color work and the voice acting sold the absurdities so well. Part 6 when... |
| Disturbing indeed, but a masterclass in horror and expectations with a great payoff. An exceptional episode that takes you away and drifts you into the pure demonic horror that Rohan has heard and finally witnessed. Amazing but mostly Bizarre. Thanks Araki. |
| Interesting episode. Koichi looked kinda different in this episode. Anyway, the story was pretty good this time. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| Rohan and Koichi. Koichi is going to Italy? LMAO Rohan entered the priest side. Sore wa dou kana? The bum is down. Dat hand. The bum is mad. The bum died. Oh snap! He possessed his daughters body. LMAO at the birds. LMAO Fire! OH SHIT!!!!!!!! Dat slice! OH SHIT!!!!!!!! Reconstructive surgery? He was actually the butler. LMAO The bum is back. lol at Okuyasu. Yukako. Dat ending. Damn. This episode was good. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| Thread has been properly formatted to the correct number episode discussion. |
| She was holding a tablet, even though it's supposed to be 2006. And Josuke, Okuyasu and Koichi keep rocking their school uniforms in their twenties. |
Ahora, triste en la pendiente, solitario y ya vencido yo me quiero confesar Si aquella boca mentía el amor que me ofrecía, por aquellos ojos brujos, yo habría dado siempre más  |
| Koichi asking Rohan to use Heaven’s Door on him so he could speak and understand Italian was a nice touch since in part 5 he also mentioned that he told Rohan to make him understand Italian |
 |
| The episode had started rather inconspicuously, but what happened later on was really intense. Another good episode of Rohan OVA. Also, since it's an episode about Rohan, I love the fact that Josuke's role is so limited. I Iked Josuke, but Rohan hated him, so it's obvious that Josuke won't have much screen time in Rohan OVA, haha. It was cool to see that famous "Oi, oi, oi, oi, oi..." scene outside th3 world of memes. |
| Damn that had me on my toes, heavens door is OP asf. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |

| This one was going pretty strong, I feel, but it fell apart a bit in the end. |

"Molly Ringwald" out right now - check my Linktree!  |
| Another good episode. This series was surprisingly very good. I gotta read the manga. I hope Araki releases more chapters for this. JoJo can manage to make anything intense lol. Be it a game of rock-paper-scissors, treadmill running or popcorn eating. Oh and Yukako looks great in this art style. |
 |
| very interesting episode, to buy a property in that villa you must follow their rules and have proper manner and etiquette, in return you become wealthy and famous, but you lose a lot if you failed to comply, loving these strange stories so far and Josuke still has no voice actor present lol |
| Dude these stories are awesome. I wish this was a total spin-off by itself. Too much interesting content especially with Rohan’s ability. The manner thing is crazy, I wonder how one of the millionaire’s day looks like with perfect manners. I wouldn’t be able to live like that even if you’re gonna be immensely successful. It would be like prison where you’re constantly being watched and if you make one mistake, you’re gone. |
Vandelay Industries, this is George Can’t-Stand-Ya speaking, how may I assist you? |
| Bruhh that guy was freakin ripped. Makes me wonder though, can one even achieve bodybuilder looks only by training?(without food moderation, protein consumption n stuff) |
| شقایق، اینجا من، خیلی غریبم |
| Huh, apparently my episode numbers differ with the ones on the website? |
| شقایق، اینجا من، خیلی غریبم |
| that bouldering scene where he goes out the window LMFAOOOOOOOOOO |
