What would his stand even be?

I'm thinking Hound Dog, it'd function exactly like Survivor except it'd only make women beat the poo poo out of him.

Most of it is not even DUWANG anymore. The good translation goes all the way until the very last fight, and at that point you don't even give a poo poo about DUWANG, you just want to see the conclusion.

VVV: Johnny Bravo is too stupid to put his stand to good use though, he'd be like Pesci without the sudden resolve growth. Best he could do with it is "tank" with it.

Used as a distraction so others have an easy target, or to split up groups of stand users to thin their numbers for a fight. Could possibly be used to lure entire groups into a trap as the men of a group chase the women, provided that none of the women have a stand that provides speed or a long range binding ability, and the user is agile on his feet.

I'm guessing that version is offered in the big file in the op? I wound up reading all of Stardust Crusaders on a slow work day and started Diamond, so I hadn't downloaded the file offered here yet.

It's not that I hate joy, I just wanted to read it normal the first go around. Duwang was going to be me going back after and just laughing.

I figure there's no way Part 3 does poorly, so Part 4 is practically guaranteed to happen. I really hope they make it to Part 6 though; I like prisons as a setting for drama, I like the powers I've heard about, and girl-Jojo sounds like a neat change of pace.

And even if for some reason part 4 does badly (It wont as it has the most iconic antagonist in the series outside of Dio) part 5 is almost guaranteed success thanks to the fujoshi market alone. Part 6 would be a shoe in afterwards.

Things get dicey with part 7 just because of how massive it is.

That folder hasn't been updated since 2011, I am not the owner of it so I can't do anything about it. What's a google though!

I added it to the top of the OP so it doesn't ever happen again.

Baoh is only really worth reading if you want to see something that encompasses the 80s so wholly it's hilarious.

Agreed. It's a short comic mini-series that represents a laundry list of 'fun' cliches in 80s stuff, manga and anime especially. While not quintessential to anything from that era, it reflects a lot of what was popular then.

In Baoh, there's:

-A teenaged kid with superpowers from a mad science experiment

-Hero pursued/persecuted by a evil underground secret society

-Bio-horror mutant stuff

-Gratuitous spectacle-gore

-Meaningful award-winning dialogue such as "Baoh has a LASER CANNON!"

-Murderous henchmen-hitmen with special talents/superpowers

-Cyborg added in because the creator just watched Terminator :allears:

-Psychic powers

-"Disproportionately massive to the hero" bad guys

And MORE!*

It's 5 minutes actually. Which is in line with how the Japanese version is right now. It used to be 20 minutes until everyone got mad at CC2 then they changed it to 5.

I'm watching Battle Tendency on Crunchyroll and am not really sure why they changed Santana to Santviento. Santana is just a regular name. It's not like the musician could do anything about it.

Just because a lawsuit would be frivolous doesn't mean they can't take you to court and cost you money anyway.

Polnareff is also a family name, but since each belongs to a figure in the public eye and is very associated with their brand, it would be grounds for a suit. A suit that JoJo might well win, granted, but it's enough to not get immediately thrown out and that is an expensive battle to fight. Most companies won't invest in that unless it is for one of their core moneymakers, whereas it is free to just sidestep the issue by changing a name that legal decides is risky.

I understand the lawsuit thing so I don't fault them for it I just question why they thought Speedwagon was still okay but Santana got the ax. If the character was named Carlos Santana or had anything to do with music it might make more sense.
