Oh man if that's true a Diamonds series is more than I could have hoped for. I think it's my favourite arc, tied with Stardust Crusaders.

Well they are making a new fighting game that has characters all the way up to steel ball run. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOPqmpzlAE8 So who knows, maybe its a tie in for all of it.

I sure am happy I got a Japanese PSN count for that Anarchy Reigns demo because I definitely want this as well when the demo comes out. (Sidenote: Everyone go get the Anarchy Reigns demo.)

In other news, the first 16 minutes of a near-finished version of the Phantom Blood movie that no-one will ever see again wound up on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOUDdJRvn2Q (Sounds by the uploader, the original footage he got had no audio)

I'm both happy and sad about this. On one hand, it's the Jojo game I've been dreaming of (assuming it ends up being good, but CC2 hasn't wronged me yet.) On the other hand, it's a PS3 exclusive and probably won't ever leave Japan.

Looking forward to a proper Jojo anime. I'm surprised they didn't make one earlier.

Am I the only one who thinks this whole new anime thing is a little too good to be true? Are there any other sources besides that really shady sounding site? Edit: nevermind Anime News Network confirmed it. Stairmaster fucked around with this message at Jul 5, 2012 around 21:01 |

Well. Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan is the very last Jojo manga I hadn't read. Thanks for linking it. That certainly is a familiar looking death scene. What a fascinating reference. I wonder what it means.

Purple D. Link posted:I did just remember that the One Piece game on PS3, also published by Namco Bandai, is being released outside of Japan as a download with subtitles. So I guess there's some hope if NB sees enough demand. Koei also released the Dynasty Warriors Gundam games in English when no other Gundam games have been getting localized so I think with that One Piece game it's not because of the anime itself, but because Dynasty Warriors games have a small but dedicated fanbase in the west that will buy them despite the subject matter. I'd love to be wrong and see them bring it here with that method though.

Factor_VIII posted:I wouldn't say that. This Kira after all has the original Kira's personality and habits so you couldn't say it's an alternate version of Jotaro. I was pretty surprised that Araki appears to have eliminated Jotaro since he's probably the most popular JoJo, but I suppose it makes sense if he wants to take the story in a different direction without having Jotaro overshadow things. I think he definitely want to take the story into a different direction, or else he wouldn't use Pucci's ability to reset the timeline. If Araki want to take the story back, All he need to do is at the end of Jojolion,Use boss's ability! I bet the boss's ability has to be something connect with time(as usual).

I'm catching up to SBR after a long hiatus of not reading it. My current spot is Chapter 79 and I'm trying to understand D4C's ability. What I'm understanding so far is this and I have some questions too: -D4C can send things or people to another dimension so long as they are between two objects within 2 meters. Basically, Valentine can just slam someone between a door and send them to a new dimension as he has done before. -D4C can also allow Valentine to replace himself with other hims from other dimensions should he be near death. If he dies then he can designate another Valentine from another dimension as the new base Valentine and he can use D4C? I'm not too sure about this one because the context of the scene where Valentine is getting run over by the train is bizarrely structured. -What the hell was the deal with the engineer? Is D4C able to fuse items into people? I understood Diego and the flag deal earlier, but I don't really get the engineer in the mirror's situation. -He's also gaining abilities that's turning my loving head upside down with the Hot Pants and bugs in her hands, fingernails being moved around and such, but I think this will be answered in a few chapters. I don't think I needed as much explanation on a stand as I did with King Crimson and even then I only needed a bit on KC's crazy rear end ability.

If they do want to use artwork similar to the one used in later half of the series then the main problem with that image is that they do not look fabulous enough.

Maybe for a normal person. To reach Dio levels of fabulous, that thing needs to be jewel encrusted and have a scrolling marquee that constantly tells you how awesome Dio is.

Dio is only 12 at that point in the series. You aren't born fabulous. You have to earn it.

Dude, this is just a reworked cover and Dio is already this fabulous. Imagine the levels of fab that will be reached when they redraw the story itself to modern Araki standards of fabulosity. Or wait, scratch that, imagine what will happen when they redraw goddamn Battle Tendency to modern Araki standards of fabulosity.

Now I, Dio, demand a nipple." Then he would clap his hands and walk off.
