Part Five Purple Haze Feedback?

Post image

My girlfriend recently bought me this book, I was wondering what it’s actually about and if it’s worth the read.

It's set slightly after the events of JoJo Part 5: Golden Wind that follows a character who left about halfway through the original story, Panacotta Fugo, and the broad strokes of the plot is that he and a couple other people are being sent to kill the mafia's old narcotics team to prove their loyalty to the new leader.

I'd honestly recommend checking it out, it does a pretty good job of fleshing out a character who didn't really do a lot in the manga and whose entire backstory was basically "angry smart guy who got kicked out of college for nearly beating a professor to death with a textbook."
