I'm glad the anime has changed people's opinions somewhat on this fight.
I rather like that Kenzo had awakened his stand naturally as opposed to many of the stand disc users this part.
The people who are born stand users tend to have very strong stands, but they're also quite simple.
The people who awaken theirs, by breaking a threshold in talents or life experiences, have conceptually the most interesting stands in my opinion.
They're often not directly combat applicable, more of a niche utility, but it's insanely creative when they are used for combat.
It may have felt a bit clunky introducing the 'Feng Shui Assassination', and chance/luck is very tricky to get right in battles without it coming across as overly scripted.
But god, I love the weaponizing of such a benign practice. The sheer horror of the inescapable accidents.

Well yeah, of all the deaths, those two had the most heartbreaking with the way they were presented. Even though Shigechi was so unlikeable, that death was haunting and so memorable, it also showed how terrifying Killer Queen was.

I like how the first examples of JoBro deaths they thought of are Caesar and SHIGECHI. I understand Caesar because of da memes but they defaulted to Shigechi before Kakyoin, Avdol, Iggy, Baron Zeppeli, Buccarati, Narancia, and Abbacchio. No hate for Shigechi but it feels like their love of FF has blinded them to the fact that Araki is not afraid to kill characters and no one is safe, not even the main character (RIP Jonathan)
