I don't know why you keep calling Josuke 15 when his stated age is 16.

I can never pin down a good voice for Okuyasu in my head that doesn't just become Kuwabara, because it's the only voice I think that can work for him and he will never have it.

I think he did in the video game.

Whew, blog is now totally up to date!

I'm gonna have to figure out a better way to organize the chapter listing once this thing gets really long. Probably a sub-page for each story arc or volume. But for now this will do. Excited to have some folks on to help me and Ziggy cold read some duwangs! This Let's Read is building some rad momentum here!

It's also really cool. I like hearing people's first impressions of series.

Two: Wait does that mean everyone who "retired" in Stardust Crusaders is now like this? You'd think Jotaro would have found out by now. Is this gonna be the main/a main plot point in part 4?


Only the ones he did not trust. He probably felt someone like Hol Horse was trustworthy enough to do it purely for cash. Hol Horse even remarked that he never sold DIO his soul, so he never got implanted with the flesh bud. Most of the stand users seemed loyal to DIO or were purely mercenary.

Oingo and Bonigo are confirmed in supplementary materials to still be going fine as well. So I would presume a fair amount of the stand users are still alive.

I thought the first three fourths of HxH were good, but the Chimera Ant arc went on forever and was not very good to begin with. I hated every single one of the villains and it dragged itself out at least 30 eps too long.

I don't agree. I thought Chimera ant was the highlight of the series.

These three are great antagonists possibly the best of the series.

Who are the people voicing them? Jojo and a couple more are the only animes I've been watching since I stopped altogether years ago,so I'm like..."who are these people"?

Okuyasu kept his voice from the games. He is Kuwabara and Knuckle Bine (both characters very similar to Okuyasu in personalty). Koichi is Eren Yeager and Speed of Sound Sonic. Jotaro is the same as last season. Josuke is Yuki Ono, from things I watched and know him from he is Chikage Rokujo from Durarara, and Zenkichi Hitoyoshi from Medaka box.

I wouldn't say it's the first time a shonen protagonist died, but JJBA is the first series to have the protagonist die before the ending, I think.

(Unless you count Devilman, there's varying interpretations of how the Akira/Amon thing works in the manga and the 70s anime straight-up says that Akira is dead and Amon is possessing an Akira-shaped meat puppet.)

A Shonen Jump protagonist he said. Devilman was not a Jump comic.

and wait holy poo poo there was this dude in Order of Ecclesia who I am just realizing was basically a Stardust Crusader's fan character, he was this dude who had a giant pig monster that was his shadow and you could only hit it on the wall and it was really cool and his name was BLACKMORE like RITCHIE BLACKMORE

Blackmore is not until Part 7.

So if Surface had taken control of Josuke soon enough, would Josuke's hand also have come off?

It does not mirror damage with the person it's copying. They just have to do the same things Surface does. Which can be used to hurt a person if things in the area are different from were surface is.

The problem with YYH is that Togashi got tired of writing and Drawing it. He literally skipped the final battle of the manga.
