[84] Rebecca Silverman of Anime News Network wrote that the first volume "combines a fighting story with a solid emotional background, and will absolutely put hair on your chest. " She called Dio an excellent villain that the readers can enjoy hating. However, she criticized the anatomy of
characters, saying "bodies are often twisted into impossible positions. "[85] Comics & Gaming Magazine's Cole Watson also strongly praised Dio as the highlight character of Part 1, stating that his eyes were glued to the page whenever he appeared, and described him as "the literal embodiment of Satan in manga form. " Watson gave Phantom Blood a 7. 5 out of 10, writing that while there is a lot to enjoy, it primarily serves as Dio's origin story and there are some moments that are "agonizingly slow. "[86] Silverman described Part 2 as "less urgent" than Part 1, which allows for more humor and insanity, while still letting the reader get attached to the characters. [87] She felt positively
about how strikingly different the protagonist Joseph is from Part 1's Jonathan. [88] However, she wrote that Araki's art had gotten even more "physically improbable," making it difficult to distinguish body parts. [88] When discussing his views on having characters die in a series, writer Gen Urobuchi cited Battle Tendency's Caesar Zeppeli as a character who became "immortal" thanks to his death. [89] Reviewing Stardust Crusaders, Silverman enjoyed seeing Part 2's Joseph team up with new protagonist Jotaro and was impressed that Araki was able to keep Dio out of Part 2 completely, only to bring him back for Part 3.
After Takamura pulled the string too hard and broke it, he asked Ippo if he ever thinks that he should give something another try, as he has his boxing and natural talent, asking what is more valuable than those. Without hesitation, Ippo answered with his mother. As Takamura left, Ippo wondered what Takamura prayed for. Later, Ippo went to Takamura's press conference for his match against Dragon and the Hirosue afterwards to eat. Walking back to the Kamogawa gym, he explained to Taihei and Kintarō how Takamura was a lot more calm while he ate compared to his previous weight controls, adding that the weight control is different for everyone, but it is harsh for Takamura. Before he ran off, Takamura requested for Ippo, Taihei, and Kintarō to meet him at the Chūka Soba after they drop off his champion belts at the gym. That night, Ippo, along with the rest of the Kamogawa gym boxers went to the Chūka Soba, however, Takamura was late. As everyone got worried about Takamura's chances against Dragon after Kimura mentioned how Dragon was not only playing around with mahjong, but also training for the match, Ippo remembers that Takamura even recognises how strong Dragon is, revealing to everyone how he prayed at a shrine. Kimura asked Ippo if he gave Takamura a voodoo doll. Ippo and everyone else were worried as Ippo found the voodoo doll in his pocket. However, everyone became unimpressed of Takamura as he showed up looking in bad shape, claiming that Yamaguchi threw him out again.
