(Eikō = "glory"; Neko no Shippo = "Cat's Tail"; Ryokuyō = "Green Heaven"; Kyōshin = "Mutual Trust". The last two are possibly just personal names in this case.)

I'd say the crowd since the use of "we", but it seems funny if she were to yell that out alone.
Kogasa is yelling it out alone, but speaking on behalf of the group.
"Dirty Deadlines Deferred Dirt Cheap"? I'm not sure how THIS one applies to Funny Valentine/D4C (if that tag was supposed to refer to SBR at all, anyway). Sudden misfortune redirected to Nakapanda?

Looks like Sanae-san was able to come along on this trip! She can finally have a little screen time. Also, Kogasa-san probably won't be eating as much with her watching Kogasa a lot more closely. It's okay, Nakapanda-san, you'll survive. Don't let go of the happy just yet.
For the poll, let's with with Neko no Shippo, because cats.
...That's the second time someone thought of AC/DC and not Jojo even in tandem. How come? (I thought AC/DC's prominence had waned somewhat over the years, but given that I don't pay much attention to the rock music scene to begin with...And looking at the song's synopsis on Wikipedia, I find even less ways in which it can cohere with this strip.)

AC/DC is a pretty famous band and their songs are still regularly played over the radio all the time. Dirty Deeds, Highway to Hell, Back in Black, and more are all really popular songs on the level of famous Queen songs. AC/DC is much more famous than JJBA in any case.

The original tag is a tweak on the standard Japanese translation of "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", which mainly refers to the Stand, but also to the AC/DC song from which it takes its name. I just lucked out that I could keep the alliteration and the changed meaning.

I never read JJBA; everything I know about the series is secondhand, and I didn't know there was a Dirty Deeds Stand. (I also didn't recognize any of your abbreviations, and I could only place "Funny Valentine" as either a Sinatra or Cowboy Bebop reference.) However, a local radio station plays the AC/DC song at least once a week.
