Is High Voltage good or bad fanservice?
Jojo afterparty thread pt 2
Mediocre fan-service.
Good fight, though.
fucking hated it all these years
kinda like it after the storytime
What's happening to me, bros?
her spray helped saved Johnny and Lucy and Stephen and Silver Dancer
Even in death, Hot Pants carries this adventure from beyond
George and Gregorio are genuinely jerks though, the latter to a lesser extent. George is horrid, telling your son you wish he'd died instead and then not showing up after he got shot, all in Johnny's developing years, is fucked up.
Johnny didn't give a single fuck about her
Fujos stay winning
catalogue is busted again
It's not that bad at all. It's just one of those things that's easy to meme (LOL Araki asspulled Diego back for the final fight!!!) so it gets a horrible reputation
Personally I think the way Dio loses is fantastic even if what happens to Johnny sours it a bit
Now that the dust has settled, why did Araki fumble the upgrade to Tusk 2 so badly?
Act 4 was originally Act 3 so the Act 3 we got was made on the fly.
Did he? I always liked it.
Going off how D4C works, I really shouldn't have been surprised when this dropped.
I want Araki to draw a 4koma of Tusk and BB hanging out
I think the hatread for Valentine comes from politicians in general instead of just Disc Jockey T. I think that might be the case for Gregorio but George was pretty cruel so I can see why people don't think Johnny should accept his apology.
Also Valentines whole monologue about how his family would slaughter lambs does a good job at summing up his brand of immorality
Every flashback had the boom boom family
I hate them so much they're so ugly bros
I can't wait for the influx of Tusk and BB art when the anime drops.
Same, but it was unfortunately a formative moment for Johnny
Tomorrow we say goodbye ;_;

Disappearance
>In December 1890 [18], President Valentine and/or First Lady Scarlet Valentine were attacked in their Chicago residence by unknown assailant[19][20], although this was not publicly disclosed until the following year [21][22]; The First Lady was unharmed but one federal agent was killed [20].
>On January 17th, 1891[23] both President Valentine and the First Lady mysteriously disappeared after an incident in Philadelphia that left several federal and army personnel dead, missing, and seriously injured.[24][25][26] The public was not notified initially, with the first sign of something having gone wrong being the President's failure to appear at the closing ceremonies of the historic Steel Ball Run race.[25][26][27][28] The fate of President Valentine and his wife, Scarlet, remains a mystery [13][27][28]
>This gave rise to many conspiracy theories[citation needed], although the one with the most support[original reasearch?] by scholarly research is that a train that made an unscheduled departure from Philadelphia and was later found derailed may be related to the President's disappearance.[29][30]
cute stands for cutest Jojo and Jobro
This spread showcases how much SBR changed in terms of artstyle.
I fucking hate it when a thread archives while I'm typing
I really like it actually. It's at least better than the fan service that came at the end of part 8. If I were Valentine, I'd probably go for an Alt Mountain Tim instead
hurrrr we need new talent!!
Fuck that shit, I want Yuki Kaji and Shinichiro Miki back
The way Gyro says "Joniii" is so cute ;_;
There are some VA's who have played two characters (Suwabe played Terrence T. Darby and Abbacchio), so not all hope is lost.
One thing I think is really cool about part 9 is Smooth Operators. Not only is the ability move things along the surface of an object freely cool, but I'm pretty sure it being able to move bullet wounds is a call back to Tusk ACT 2.
Valentine WON!
...the lying contest.
well his goal was achieved in the end
Explain why his pants never spontaneously combusted right now nigga.
Act 3 does feel a little disconnected from the others.
Act 1 is using any rotation.
Act 2 is using the golden rotation.
Act 3 is shooting himself.
Act 4 is using the perfect rotation.
What are your thoughts on the Johnny x Gyro ship.
THE KINOCAUST tier
THE MOUSE (w/Stand)
NUCLEAR KINO tier
Evil Nicholas (with Stand)
absolute KINO tier
"Evil" Gyro (w/Stand)
Evil Terrorist Johnny
absolute CINEMA tier
Dio + The World
"Evil" Mountain Tim
SANDman (with SAND powers)
good enough tier
Evil Hot Pants
Valentine has his ear blown off by Gyro
How did Araki predict future?
Jojo is real life Tohth
Mogs all the other gay Jojo ships imo
So how did everyone here feel about part 10? Personally i didn't enjoy it but most people I've seen here like it. JoJo just felt like a shittier version of Jolyne and Yuki is probably the worst Jobro of all time.
Everything about the Corpse returning and the three Joestar saints was Kino tho
Outside of one or two times where people slipped up and talked about AU Diego, I'm glad everyone was able to restrain themselves for First Time Readers and not spoil The World returning
I've never minded the Gyjo posts in these threads because of all the gay ships faggots try to push in Jojo, it has the most basis in reality.
I still can't get over the fact Trump was hurt in his ear and Valentine lost his. You can't make that shit up, this is a simulation
Not a fujoid, but I do find the love they have for each other very sweet and believably developed. There's a catharsis in seeing Gyro go from a redpilled wife beater to being content to give up his own life if it's in service of helping Johnny achieve his dream.
Not really into shipping but Gyro and Johnny at least have deep care for each other and that alone puts them above than all the other main fujojo ships.
He should've just gather a bunch of evil Johnnys and send all across the world to fuck shit up and ruin the good Johnny's reputation and call that the Johnny war..
I enjoyed it, outside of Yuki the problems people have with it barely apply
What are your thoughts on the Johnny x Slow Dancer ship.
It was fun, wasn't it?
youtube.com
Genuinely what do people mean when they say “the best parts of 8 are better than the best parts of SBR”
Like.. what the fuck do you mean? No? That’s just plain incorrect. A lot of people argue Jojolion peaks with some fat random stand user of the week whos mildly intimidating and has lame ties to the lame backstory of the lame cardboard cutout main character, getting punched in the face. I’d argue Beetle Tendency is basically the only good portion of the entire fucking part, and Ozone baby is also an entertaining fight strictly because Jobin is the only character in the part araki gave any multidimensional personality to.
Don’t even get me started on the countdown. Reading that part monthly was hell and The JoJolands is infinitely better. The JoJolands is the part that has the potential to top SBR, genuinely.
Stop lurking reddit
Yuki could have been great if Araki never had that stroke
I remember a previous post saying that Araki never showed Johnny or Gyro being nice to their horses and that's just wrong. Johnny loves his Slow Dancer, even after she tried to brutalize him for no reason.
It's just... there. It doesnt particualrly add anything to the finale
Johnny takes his offer
Valentine gets a Gyro
the Gyro is evil and fucking hates Johnny
How would Johnny respond?
The requiem corpse arc was the most asinine shit I ever read it being revealed to be Prince was kino tho I can't lie. Also what was up with Who's Next going from being able to irradiate things to full on nuclear warfare? i didn't think Araki would go that far like holy shit!
Beetle Tendency
KABUTOMUSHI
Wonder of U owes all its fandom to that translator who beat Kewl that one time during the chapter where Rai comes face to face with him because he translated his dialogue in a more casual way than what the other translator had us used to, readers misinterpreted his dialogue as a genuine show of surprise that made WoU seem much more charismatic and expressive and even cute than he really was, specially when you compare him with his robotic user with 0 screentime.
Danny
Slow Dancer
that wolf Johnny fed before the Wekapipo fight
Underrated trait of Johnny's is that he seems to be soft for animals
Johnny and Lucy OTP
Part starts with rain falling during a funeral
Part ends with Nuclear bombs falling down after Every Saint on Earth comes back to life
And People say Araki peaked with SBR
I'm barely in Part 9 when Jodio's crew tries to scam Howler...
IDK, I haven't read but I watched ASB clips of him and he seems pretty expressive and cool in there.
every cringe Johnny ends up with Lucy
the based Johnny ends up with Rina
See?
Uuuooooo cute Johnny
I somewhat agree. JoJolion is a fun ride and has a lot of really great stuff in the first half. But they're mostly great moments, whereas a lot of kino stuff in SBR comes from the characters themselves.
Beetle Tendency is awesome, but at the end of the day it's just a fun Beetle fight with a neat set piece. It doesn't come close to the highs of SBR
Shit.
Honestly I'm shocked, considering how bad the shitposting in SBR threads I expected them to ramp it up and ruin the ending by spamming how shit High Voltage is but surprisingly majority of people seem to like it
Johnny/Rina is mid because Rina has no personality and Araki can't write straight romances (outside of Jonathan/Erina), but I like that she's apparently the man of the house while Johnny is the wife.
The site being Killed for a week helped
What if he was named Unfunny Valentine?
Also there's no way High Voltage is that long, Do SBR and Jojolion share a volume?
Don't start with me, fujoBITCH. I don't have the patience for this.
Honestly the Anon Babble hack and me starting a new hobby completely killed the hype for me, even if the ending for part 7 is still kino. I'll probably be around part 8 threads only to read them before sleep and the eventual wave of Damoposting
The 11 days of Anon Babble being down and coming back unceremoniously has filtered the shitposters as they probably haven't realized it's back up yet or have finally touched grass
Do you think Rina was ostracized for marrying a foreigner?
That shit was very funny, the first translator had a meltdown because someone did his job faster and better and that is why now we have chapters release at the same time as Japan instead of taking a day or two (the translation still sucks though).
Nope. Tomorrow has the final four chapters of SBR in the volume and that's all.
This WoU is such a little shit in his intro/winner dialogues for ASBR kek.
youtube.com
offering to patch up whoever he just beat up
Cocky fucker.
Ozone Baby is the last good Jojolion arc.
Nothing I said was wrong though. What is Rina's personality?
Oh I never knew that. Yeah through all of WoU that was one of the moments I remember the most, the shock of him going "Wow! Even I don't know what's going to happen next! This is interesting!"
It didn't kill hype for 7 for me, though it cemented that I won't stick around for 8
Maybe many of the shitposters finally killed themselves after the site died. That or they just haven't found out the site is back up.
Don't reply to me, scum.
How were whites treated in Japan historically?
Jodio
I miss that nigga, Did Araki ever say if he is still Alive by part 11?
Sailor Johnny is so cute
I only shitpost when I'm bored. Most of SBR is really mid
The site has been noticeably slower lately. It's nice
Do you think Johnny got to meet Gyro again after he died?
SOFT AND WETTO
Kill yourself
Methinks Johnny's ghost has been stuck in Morioh since he died and he never got to fully pass on, kinda like Kira in Dead Man's Questions.
Part 7 is good
Part 8 is shit
Part 9 is good
Part 10 is shit
I'm not reading part 11 until it's done
Simple as
AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HELP ME!!!!!! OH GOD, TUSK I NEED AN ACT 5! ACT 6! ACT ANYTHIIIIIIIIIING
Are your really going to tell me you enjoyed the Job-Job Family, Pork Pie Hat Jobber, and Scary Jobbers?
Has Johnny ever taken off his hat/beanie thing?
Rock-kun lost the psychological battle. He is yet to enter the True Rock's World.
a fucking stand that is somehow sentient and able to live an entire life as a human in disguise
Araki somehow made this boring
gave WoU to the worst villain ever
his defeat makes no fucking sense
I'll never forgive this
Why does Johnny start dressing like a sailor for no reason?
Scary Monsters was kino though
Araki had an obsession with sailors at that point
Maybe it was Rina's fetish or something. Higashikata's are weird.
Scary Monsters
Always.
at the end of Part 4 people said Part 5 was going to be the BEST (it wasn't)
at the end of Part 5 people said Part 6 was going to be the WORST (it wasn't)
at the end of Part 6 people said Part 7 was going to be the BEST (it wasn't)
Alright, is Pat 8 actually bad or are you guys fibbing again?
He is a man of the sea.
he speedreads threads
We've said time and time again that the first half of JJL is arguably Araki at his best. The second half is when things get questionable.
SBR is still the best though.
I mean most of the Pacific is excluded from Araki's nuclear holocaust world map so maybe, speaking of part 11, I am the only one who likes the fact that Slow Dancer's blood line continues on into the part? Pets have been a very fun theme
The part 8 threads will be an enjoyable experience. That is all
he rode a boat once and made it his entire personality
it's kinda like how you can look at a few part 3 fights as foreshadowing for jotaro's civilian job
New hat, new me.
JoJo is a cute
Idk I always had a hunch Part 5 threads were going to suck based on how Part 4 threads went with people nitpicking every small thing.
he's wearing the sailor hat on top of his normal hat
The only time you see Johnny without a hat is when he was a child.
SOtist at it again
Your part sucks, cope
You're not fooling anyone SOfag
>at the end of Part 4 people said Part 5 was going to be the BEST
Literally nobody said this. Reminds me of that post where someone said people were hyping up spin when we were all mocking spin since before we even started part 7 kek.
Part 8 storytime will have the most shitposting, it will be fun if nothing else.
High Voltage is a top tier Jojo fight in a part where fight quality has been all over the place.
people said Part 5 was going to be the BEST (it wasn't)
Nobody said this. Why do you 6fags keep trying to humblebrag about SO being beloved on Anon Babble, as if that means anything? Also yes, the beginning of JJL is good, which is why it's extra painful when it's ultimately pointless
SO is good and so is SBR. The SOtist just needs to let go of the fact that the latter is more popular.
I am the only one who likes the fact that Slow Dancer's blood line continues on into the part
I'm surprised that they were still being kept in the Joestar family but I'm really glad that they were.
Also who is the better horse? Slow Dancer or Lowdown
They never will, it's insane the amount of bitter seethe they have for SBR.
more popular
SBR and SO finished as the lowest ranked Parts in those two big polls earlier this year JJL didn't make it at all
Don't start.
Lowdown being a stand user and actually helping in the fight against Under Pressure already makes her better than that hag horse
What fanfic character is this?
MY HEROES . . . and Johnny I guess
I'm always conflicted with the partsfaggotry between SOfags and SBRfags because Johnny and Jolyne are my two favorite JoJos. I hate the in-fighting :(
If an AU DIavolo and/or AU Pucci show up in part 9, what role should they play?
...and Jolyne.
I can't wait to start horny Tsurugi posting
This little bitch can catch this COCK
You'd think SOfags would despise 3 and 5 more since they're far and away more popular
engaging in partsfaggotry at all
My HERO...
and Johnny and Jolyne
with some fat random stand user of the week
With the amazing flashback that happens at the same time and perfectly wraps up the very interesting mystery that's been teased the whole part up to that point.
Technically it went
SBR >>>>> SO >>>> JJL didn't even place
I WILL be jerking off during the Daiya fight and I WILL let it be known
I want to beat him to death with a hammer, that stupid fucking sack of shit
Gappy...
Raping Johnny as Jolyne raped me...
I get what you mean, but you can't really escape that kind of discussion in a series like JoJo. It's really no different that discussing which arcs are better in a series like DB or Naruto.
If Johnny had Lowdown he would have one the Steel Ball Run race
Jolyne X Emporio
:D
Yasuho X Tsurugi
D:
What's the lore reason for this?
Fuck Jolyne
Rape Johnny
Marry Tusk
My wife <3
*Won
Tsurugi is ugly.
Ugly creature.
Mitsuba and Jobin were too pretty to produce such a disgusting being.
Yasuho is a rape victim
Tsurugi is annoying and Yasuho is made for being abused, not abusing
Imagine the sex
For some reason, fanatics of certain parts often end up despising the parts that follow it the most. The exception are the few Part 1 fanatics that exist since they often like Part 2 a lot too.
As of 2039, there've been 3 fallout refernces in part 11
He isn't a time traveller
RAPEY JOCKEY
Jolyne would make Johnny cry as Stone Free wormed its way up his ass.
Johnny bottoms.
Her daddy's got a big aeroplane
Her mommy holds all the family cash
Why was part 10 so short?
This much bitching about part 6 exclusively in response to this post reeks of samefag.
Which Main villain would make the best waifu if rule 63'd?
Discussing which parts are better isn't a big deal, it's the people who take others ranking other parts over their favorites as a slight against them who ruin things.
Tooru
Tooru
Can only have gloryhole sex or blindfolded sex with her
Japs (rightfully) kept complaining about newer Jojo parts lasting for a decade and going constantly on hiatus for the sake of more TSKR when the first six parts lasted 4 years or less in average so Araki decided to make a shorter part.
As an SOfag I don't despise SBR, I just feel SBRfags are really dishonest and insincere about it.
I mean really, one of the first things that happened once Anon Babble came back up was an SBRfag crying about shitposting, now there are SBRfags in this very thread crying about the lack of shitposting.
Valentine would feel like a fucked up fusion between Anissa and Conquest from Invincible. Her senses would be so very uncomfortable.
part 8 wil be decent
crying about the lack of shitposting
They aren't crying about it, stop being sensitive
crying about the lack of shitposting.
Seems more like actual relief that people are discussing the finale without excessive shitposting.
It's not, the way anon worded that post was clearly cruising for some partsfaggotry.
…
JoJo's world is utterly fucked After part 10
Rohan is still making his manga and doing whatever he does in TSKR
He won
now there are SBRfags in this very thread crying about the lack of shitposting
??? They expressed relief
You fucking LOST btw, and will lose even more tomorrow you old fuck
I'm mixed, because I really hate that Diego came back, but High Voltage is such a good fight that it neutralizes that hate for me, leaving me in the middle.
Jolyne is cute and the worst thing you can say about Emporio is that he's a bit of a Koichi
Tsurugi is a hideous gremlin
Johnny…
He did but I don't see anyone trying to whiteknight part 5 and all of the bitching comes with a retarded boogeyman accusation.
Gyro got to die content and fulfilled for his beloved
Gregorio lost
He won the phyric victory
Would George and Gregorio be friends?
Gregorio must think Gyro just went around doing whatever people asked of him due to his sentimental nature and ended up trying to kill the president. The journey would sound really dumb from his POV unless Johnny went more into detail.
If Rohan dies then there'd be no more Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.
We miss her.
Part 5 fags haven't realized Anon Babble is back. There's also a long storied history of bad blood from part 6 fags directed at part 7 fags. Hell, some said they hoped the SBR anime would flop once it got announced.
Gregorio was heavily against the idea of friendship. George would be friends with Dario though.
Huh? Why are you so sentimental about losing "one" son? Just train one of your other six to be a jockey.
Meant for
Who?
Part 5 fags haven't realized Anon Babble is back.
stopped reading there. You will go to any length making up bullshit from thin air to justify this partwar vendetta.
If Araki had a top 10 least liked Jojo characters, she's definitely on the list.
GACK!
I don't recognize this woman.
So why did Johnny get all rapey with her?
We all do, anon.
Now that Johnny's bottom half is functional again what's the first thing you think he jerked off to?
She was asking for it.
Wekapipo is dead
Gyro is dead
Spinbros…
so irrelevant Johnny doesn't even think of her in flashbacks
kek
I FUCKING HATE TIME TRAVELERS
The Joestar lineage continued the Spin.
HGyro

Blackmore failed? Send in....THE INDIAN MAN WHO READS THE BIBLE
Wekapipo and Magenta failed? Send in....THE GUILTY SOLDIER WHO LIKES NAP TIMES

Send in....THE TRAIN CONDUCTOR
I...failed!?....I have no other choice, you've pulled my hand Johnny Joestar...
Send in....THE BRITISH
Not a fujo, but Johnny has to come while screaming "GYROOOOOOOOO" at least once.
Nobody likes VA here, dumdum. And for good reason
I wonder who Nalels sided with during WW1. They probably had a crazy fascist movement leading the lead up to WW2
Is Hunger Games anon back? If not I can take over for him for tomorrow's round.
These past few days, I've been watching the PB adaptation as I wait for DBAnon to start and it's pretty comfy.
Obviously Gyro
And for good reason
Because best boys Narancia and Doppio both got shitty deaths, obviously.
Yes
Gyro, of course
Based.
Evil Hot Pants
Already got that in part 6.
AU Johnny doesn't have the cat hair things
AU Lucy has a braid
Huh, never noticed that.
If Araki survives will we ever get a Part 12?
I'm expecting him to get to part 15 before calling it quits.
I'll only enter JJL threads once they get to Volume 21.
I'll only enter JJL threads when Johnny makes a cameo.
Probably some of the best I've seen
cringe world Johnny doesn't have hair fluffs
Not muh Johnny
I'll only enter JJL threads once Hato and Mitsuba show up.
They've got some nice asses on 'em.
I hope Anon Babble notices this when it happens
Johnny allowed this
Who looted the corpses of my heroes and stole their hats? I'll skin them alive.
He has Gyro's actual hat at home, that's just a cheap imitation
Joshu deserved better.
Was there any point to Gappy being named the exact same as Josuke?
It's a good fight, but did Diego REALLY have to return?
To remind us that DIO is shit and dino Diego is superior.
Yes
Yeah, Jojo reference
His name should have been Josefumi from the start. The actual Josefumi can now be josuke
Plenty do unless you think spam and shitposts are the only opinions that exist.
not the first time Stand is Sentiment,talk back to user and live normal life
"We want the Diamond is Unbreakable audience"
Why didn't White snake show up in Part 10?
WoU absolutely mogs the fuck out of this fucking guy in scope, sentience, and powers.
You're saying this like it's some big accomplishment.
It is, he's a genuinely interesting stand and Araki fucked it all up
Sometimes Araki just dumpsters characters. Deaths can raise stakes sure but they shouldn't be so unceremonious.
You now remember that Tamami was a core party member

You mean Howru.
which half?
Mountain Tim's monologue touched even I'm not a cowpoke. SOUNDman's was marred by how shitty that arc was. Weka happened so fast. I never like Diego. Hot Pants was so anticlimactic it wrapped around into comedy.
Bottom half + underboob, I'll try to dig it up
Mountain Tim's monologue touched even I'm not a cowpoke.
Don't get me wrong. It was the saddest of all of them, but it's still like... it just happens.
censorship
Bring back the beloved reliable companion.
Seeing Josuke and Okuyasu in that Late Part 3 style never fails to unnerve me.
It's more eerie in the first few chapters where Josuke is literally Jotaro with other clothes and hair.
In any other part she would've been in the gang. Jolyne simply does not forgive.
Opinion on this?
youtube.com
muh best cast in jojo
After re reading SBR i came to the conclusion all the secoundaries and most of the antagonists suck in this series, araki cant write for his life different lineups of factions besides Jojo (good guys) and Villain group (The bad guys) what happens to the third section? They died abruptly without achieving anything
Araki dedicates entire volumes to developing Diego, Hot Pants and Wekapipo as their own factions with their own interests but he doesn't know how to conclude his characters beyond the idea of killing them off and that's it. Their deaths don't help Johnny/Gyro like part 4 with shigechi warning Josuke's group about Kira. which makes me understand that he didn't have any plans for them anymore, the series deceives you into seeming like they'll have relevance but it's just that Araki doesn't know how to handle his characters and their egos so he kills them off abruptly. It wouldn't bother me so much if this weren't for the fact that this is JoJo, and death always leaves something for the living. The only example of this practice is Gyro.
i see sbr as big bag of potatos chips, the chips are really good the rest is air..
sbr is like a 5/10
This problem also exists in Jojolion, but here the idea is solved by making the third factions die in the final stretch and contribute to defeating WOU.
D4C pulling out a flag for his boss and later pushing him out of the nail bullets' way
Based. Also
Johnny doing the arigato Gyro talk while Act 4 pummels Valentine
kek
The funniest thing is the Vatican having some involvement but it just ends with Hot Pants. They must be seething about the corpse at the end of the story.
I found Diego's death pretty emotional. Not Shigechi emotional, but it made me feel like shit seeing him say he's won while split in two
muh best cast in jojo
Nobody fucking says this, they say Gyro and Johnny are Araki's best written duo
maybe you not, but this is not the first time ive listened that
Araki dedicates entire volumes to developing Diego, Hot Pants and Wekapipo as their own factions with their own interests but he doesn't know how to conclude his characters beyond the idea of killing them off and that's it.
I agree with this. Araki made their motivations interesting but then he did them so dirty that it ended up feeling pointless.
desuarchive.org
people hyped up this Talking Head and Clash tier fucking fight as "MAN I CAN'T WAIT FOR JAILHOUSE ROCK IT'S SO FUCKING GOOD!!!!"
Convinced Part 6 stans will slurp up anything
Huh it really does keep happening doesn't it
Diosperg in that thread saying all the Joestars are canonically ugly
False
that moment was gayer than the whole toast scene
Valentinefags, this is your hero?
the fucking heart in his eye
Araki...
Only in flashbacks.
And we never see Gappy without the hat at all.
KWAB.
Imagine if Tsurugi shows up in Jojolands, but he's aged up and incredibly hot like both of his parents.
If that happens i hope Jodio runs him over with a car
Jobin was forced to cross dress too right? Do we ever see it?
Gregorio won by trusting in fate.
The kingdom of Naples was abolished and Marco was freed to later die of natural causes.
The miscarriage of justice never happened because a miracle prevented it.
If Gyro had just done nothing, he would have survived and not even needed to kill Marco, since death row can last for years anyway.
The thing that bothers me most about JJL is that fucking nobody acts or speaks like a normal person in it. It's like watching a bunch of autists interact and I don't like it.
Literally just to be confusing.
Yeah, but then Gyro wouldn't have gotten to experience true love with a pretty twink
This isn't an edit?
Now that the dust has settled, can we agree the midway art for SBR was the best?
And then he starts molesting Dragona.
Charmingman tells Tsurugi that Dragona is a guy, and Tsurugi laughs and says he knows a crossdresser when he sees one.
It is, but it might as well not be with how Lynchian everyone is in 8.
I do think it's interesting that every character in JJL has Blackmore's speech pattern, when Blackmore is implied to be mentally disabled.
"MAN I CAN'T WAIT FOR JAILHOUSE ROCK IT'S SO FUCKING GOOD!!!!"
no lies told
I wouldn't describe Jailhouse Rock as "so fucking good" but it is an entertaining gimmick. Talking Head and Clash is just a dumb scenario that made everyone kind of look bad while Jailhouse Rock is nightmare fuel.
If by mid you mean from the lake to right before Wekapipo then sure.
Blackmore is implied to be mentally disabled
Holy headcanon
Anon...
He's so cool. There really was no need for any ZA WARUDO knife throw fanservice or any more callbacks to the original dio, this man is great on his own. Also cool dinosaurs > time stop.
I found the close-ups between Scary Monsters and True Man's World to be the best.
Trips of truth
Araki by the time he finishes writing Part 10
Funny doesn't view it as him break his promise to Johnny, since all he stated was that he wouldn't get vengeance on him. I think that's why he suddenly declares his actions are that of justice, he thinks he's doing the just thing in killing Johnny. Which he is, he's a terrorist and a menace and MY FUCKING PRESIDENT did nothing wrong.
It's spelled differently in Japanese due to kanji shit, they just decided not to differentiate it at all in English.
So Japan gets to tell apart the Josukes easily while everyone else gets Josuke and Josuke.
Part 4 Josuke: 東方 仗助
Part 8 Josuke: 東方 定助
Just by 1 kanji but it's there.
stans
SBRniggers not even trying to hide the fact that they're literal tourists.
he actually means stands
and by part 6 stands he means foo fighters
and by "slurping up anything" he means anything with water which means my cum
fucking redcoat scum WE THE PEOPLE declare our independence from you!
aieee england-sama tasukete!
This is someone's president?
Friendship ended with emojis
Now Tilde is my best fri~end
THE RAPE VICTIM
In Ringo's case the rapist was the victim
Now that the dust has settled, can we agree he is the goodest bestest boy?
Johnny works as a great parallel and subversion of Jonathan, even down to being his complete physical opposite
Josuke and Josuke have zero parallels or subversions
No wonder it's easy to find Johnny/Jonathan content while Josuke/Josuke is practically nonexistent. It's just a shout out at best.
Named after Josuke
Is much more similar to Jotaro
What the fuck was Araki thinking
It does feel like Araki was channeling Twin Peaks a little with JJL, but more The Return than the OG series
Jodio and Giorno got a good amount of "opposites" stuff too since even with the most basic of base level Jojolands knowledge, you know Jodio's cool with selling drugs to kids
Seeing Johnny and Jonathan interact in EOH was cute because they're so different and there's a lot of wholesome potential there. I don't even remember how Josuke and Josuke got along in that game, but I imagine they wouldn't care much about each other anyway
wasted Jotaro reference on Kei
What the FUCK was araki thinking??
Kei really is the worst case of Araki underusing a character in all of JoJo, she should have at least done something during Kira and Josefumi's flashback arc.
Josefumi is closer to OG Josuke but that's about it.
Why do villains never send 10 stand users at a time to attack the joestars, it's always
I send my first minion!
He was beaten? Send the second minion!
He was beaten? Send the third minion!
etc
It feels like group combat would be significantly better for killing pesky joestars. Part 5 seems to explain this the best with la squadra trying to catch up with Bucciarati's gang and only managing to make it there one at a time, and dying before they had enough time to wait for their compatriots. But for something like part 3/6/7 I just don't get it. Is DIO stupid? Why not send all your minions to kill the joestars at the same time? Why didn't Pucci unleash 20 different stand users to kill Jolyne all at once? Why did Valentine wait to send his assassins one by one?
Somebody's feeling forgetful...
horse-racing part
not a single horse has a stand
That's basically one stand user. Why not send Pork Pie Hat Kid AND Sandman AND Eleven Men AND Blackmore AND Mike O. AND D-I-S-C-O?
They send 2 users at once sometimes to work together. Any more than that and it gets confusing for readers because there would be so much shit going on and it would be impossible to follow along and figure out 10 enemy stand abilities. Even 3-4 would be confusing enough.
Fake answer:
the story would be impossible to follow. It's hard enough to keep track of one weird-ass reality-warping power, let alone a dozen of them. There's already always some character explaining what's going on just so you know what the fuck you're looking at, and that already hurts the pacing pretty badly. If you start stacking six or seven stand abilities on top of each other, you're gonna have full pages of text just trying to make sense of it for the audience.
real answer:
Araki is a hack and a bad writer. If you wanna see that kind of crazy shit, read Whole Cake Island in One Piece.
That Koichi
I keked
Have you played ASB? Slow Dancer is broken enough to not even need a stand
Baba Yaga hugging his horse after retiring is such an overlooked sweet moment, hope the anime doesn't cut it.
