JoJolion makes me realize that Araki realized he's published in a seinen magazine, so he can talk about even more bizarre stuff.
Like balls, dicks, tits.... Sequestrating people, rape ? :smith:
e: Even if he also did that by the end of SBR. Still, the part wasn't based around that

I was worried about Kakyoin's look, because he's FABULOUS :allears:
He looks fine, so all is good in the best of worlds.

I can't read Japanese, but does that say it's aired at 7 PM ? :aaaaa:

Well, to be fair Jotaro never looked like a highschooler while he was one in the manga. He had to wait until he was 40 or so to look like one.

Yep, that's Araki's style change to you.

How do they keep finding the most boring examples possible to show this game off. :ughh:

By this point I wouldn't be surprised if some people had been turned off the game just because every time someone makes a video on it, they play like it's the first fighting game they've ever touched.

I don't know man, Johnny was pretty good as far that
But yeah, Gyro couldn't do poo poo.

I still stand by my opinions, because there is very little connectivity. Part 3 is still enjoyable without reading about vampires and pillarmen. And Part 3 is still a blast to read. The anime shouldn't discourage anybody.

How are you supposed to love to hate Dio in Stardust Crusaders if you don't read/watch Phantom Blood ? :colbert:

Without context, he's just that evil guy who killed one of the ancestors of the hero, but who cares right.

Yeah, feels a bit weird to abandon the muscly style for the old characters "just because".

Does he got a new team of assistants or something? :colbert:

It's been like 15 years that he doesn't draw like that anymore. He drew them in his new artstyle, that's all.

Did I miss something in part 6 or was it just Araki being Araki: When Pucci was gathering all the sons of dio there was a little blurb at the end of the chapter all "But Giorno is also a son of dio, maybe he's also in Florida????" and then nothing. Did I skip a chapter where he made a brief cameo or did Araki just kind of decide he didn't want Giorno ever to appear again? :v:"

Araki forgets stuff all the time.

Most of these fights don't need 2 episodes at all though. If they want the anime to be genuine, they won't add too many filler.

I hope the villain of Jojolion doesn't have a punchghost stand.

The last punchghost stand we had was Tusk, and it was like the only one of its kind in part 7.
I think Araki graduated from attack stands to utility stands.
