Steel Ball Run is amazing and anyone who says otherwise is objectively wrong.

I'm in the middle of SBR right now, and I'm enjoying it a LOT. Though so far Part 4 is still my favorite.

Dio Brando is a better choice then Diego, both storywise and moveset wise and CC2 agrees. Deal with it

There's no reason why we couldn't have three Dios, I mean there are two Kiras for gently caress's sake. If they make a sequel, which isn't unlikely looking at how many Naruto games they've made, I'm sure Diego will be included. Here's the only scan on the internet.  I don't understand why somebody felt the need to photoshop the face. Also this is definitely a real scan, none of it looks fake.

I'm pretty sure Parts 1 and 2 are the least popular parts of the series in Japan and that's because they're both glorified Fist of the North Star clones... oh and most of the villains in both aren't super pretty aside from Dio and Cars. I'd say Part 6 is too. Tobaccrow posted:
I guess that's a choice, Harvest could be implemented in interesting ways. darealkooky posted:Dio Brando is a better choice then Diego, both storywise and moveset wise and CC2 agrees.

I'm kind of expecting the final boss of the Part 7 segment to be Part 3 Dio in a different outfit.

I read halfway through it years ago but stopped for so long that I forgot, so I decided to restart. After finishing up Scary Monsters, I really like Diego as a character. He makes bad puns, which is amazing for a Dio reincarnation. Also, that new character reveal... It can't be real, can it? Why him over everyone else? Not that I dislike the character but dang. Edit: Oh, there's a scan. Impressive, but still. I'm sure Part 1 Dio was included to capitalize on the anime so I can accept him, even if I didn't already like the difference in fight style.

yeah I'm not that psyched, especially since 6 and 7 are barely represented when you have so many useable characters like FF, Weather Report, Diego and even someone like Wekapipo. Hell I'd love to see what kind of interface screwing they could do with a power like Wekapipo's.

Seems like it'd be interesting with players trying to quickly make it to safe spots, or force opponents into dangerous ones.

If you're gonna have a character with a zombie army, better to go for Axl Ro. Then you can have IMMORTAL CIVIL WAR GHOSTS instead.

I think what most of us agree on is that part 7 is amazing and really more people should read it for really cool stand battles and the best bromance to come from Japan.

I read the entire series in a month without significant stops (which, in hindsight, was not a good idea,) and I really couldn't help but blitz through Part 7 despite being extremely fatigued by the series by then. It's basically the best part outright.

Part 7 is outright the best part. It's the one where Araki obviously knew what he wanted in his story and there were no hiccups along the way like in every other part of the series, it's just so well done and has the best everything, even stand fights are amazing.Cipher Pol 9 posted:I just hit Ringo Roadagain in SBR and oh my god, what a glorious soul patch and great character design in general. Yes, Real Man's World was one of the loving best parts of Part 7 and it only gets better.

Hopefully it sells tens of millions of copies then they make a Super Jojo All Stars with all the DLC characters included and a Western release with GGPO netcode. Is that too much to ask?

Would you look at that, I came here to say that I finally managed to slog through parts 5 and 6. The end of 6 was pretty drat ridiculous at least, and I had fun looking at araki's complete inability to draw women without adam's apples. Then holy poo poo, part 7 is pretty much the best thing ever. The way stands and even combat itself took a backseat to the racing made things pretty easier on the eyes. The ripple like abilities were a refreshing break from stands at the beginning. Not to mention that their riddle solving skills is pretty much on par with Black Dynamite. Reading binary code to parse Latitude and Longitude coordinates in 1890 written by a dude who died 1900 years before and pinpointing the location to kansas city had me in stitches. I just have a question about steel ball run's continuity, though. I'm on chapter 32 and I'm wondering: Is this continuity made after puccio's universe reboot? They are quite unclear about lineage on this one.

The recent Lisa Lisa/Jorge Joestar light novel did apparently imply that there's been at least 36 odd reboots (that only affect Earth, given that there's 36 versions of Kars that ended up living on Mars).

I blitzed parts 3-now a little while after finishing the anime. I ended up breaking a little into part 5, which seems to be par for the course, and then read through half of part 6 in a day and 2/3 of part 7 in another. I really liked how stand abilities were reinvented for part 7, how most of them gave the user an ability and didn't have posing ghosts along with them. Also, the big bad was beaten in a really satisfying way, which can't really be said for 5 or 6. I get the feeling that the SBR universe is Pucci's reboot universe, since every Joestar has a direct counterpart up until Jotaro (and Josuke 1 and Giorno, but they don't exist without the ripple and vampire Dio respectively). Who knows if it will ever become relevant though since there was probably a universe reset for longevity reasons.

I'm pretty sure Born This Way was still happening by the time the game was announced. Making the California King Bed into another character would be weird too, although I guess if they can do it with Rohan it can happen with anyone. Also I agree, Keicho would be pretty rad, he's the first significant villain of Part 4 and has a super cool stand.

Born This Way is basically the only possible fighter they could have included but yeah, I didn't think about the time and development aspect. Maybe the Gingko Tree can be DLC. Not as a stage, I want to play as the tree. I'm just disappointed in the lack of 6 and 7 character rep, as well as lack of female characters outside of 6. This only gets worse the farther I get into SBR. But I still put a preorder down on it and will end up getting all the DLC, so hopefully this will fix itself in time.

No joke, I'd love to see Trish be DLC in the game. I was really hoping on either FF or Annasui getting in, since while Weather Report is a stage hazard, the other two were significant enough characters to the main cast that I figured they'd be a shoe-in to get in the game.
