Some of the poo poo he pulled off with hamon is completely Looney Tunes (not to mention poo poo like his grenade trick), but his final fight in Battle Tendency will forever be my favorite final boss fight, because rather than being an asspull I found it to be hilariously insane luck + shittalking like a pro.

Hamon is no crazier than any of the poo poo Stands do.

There's always some kind of flimsy reasoning that I can stretch (very heavily) for why Stands do their poo poo TBH, once it's explained what each stand can do and your mind is within that frame of reference. But please explain to me how hamon can link up falling icicles within a split second in a wide radius into a solid line, onto which a falling Joseph can grab and not slide off into the chasm like a dumbass. Cause I can't think of a single force affected by hamon as capable of doing that lmao.

So after watching Jojo I thought that Guile from Street Fighter was inspired by von Stroheim... But apparently the inspiration for him was Polnareff?

It was 100% Stroheim, Capcom just doesn't want to admit they based him off of a Nazi

Let's cut to the chase here does a horse have a stand.
No, but the horse is a key element to defeating the bad guy. Like, they couldn't have done it with a high shelf or a car. They specifically needed the horse to win.

It's fun to look at JoJo discussions because most of the time people are imagining they'd have awesome stands like Despacito or All Star or Mambo no 5 or something. Bet most of them would get stuff like Why Don't You Get a Job.

The lack of 3D makes me feel the production value went up, but I agree the music isn't superb.

I get that, but the violins and the refrain honestly remind me more of the music played at those older Formula One racing vids or such. Everytime the guy says 'Fighting Gold' I swear I can hear a racecar drive by in my head or at least see NumberOnePoster's AV.

also, music might be up to taste tbh, since it's more modern-sounding than previous ones, but the sound design is easily the best of any of the seasons.

Yeah I like Fighting Gold but not in the same way or scale as for example Bloody Stream. They're both good but I prefer the latter in terms of style.

I just started watching it a couple weeks ago and finally got to season 3 with Jotaro. I actually liked season 1 so I was pleased to hear it only gets better from there. Making a sympathetic Nazi in season 2 was questionable but it was originally written in the 90s so whatever, I guess.

Sekai Ichiiiiii

but yea...the series is p adamant that as bad as nazis are (as demonstrated in Mexico), ancient vampire gods are still worse, which might disqualify that season from viewing for a lot of peeps here.

Not me tho, 2nd favorite season of all to be sure.

young Joseph is one of the best JoJos. He's outclassed in every fight he gets into so he wins by bullshitting.

The best JoJo series is 4 tho. Shame the comic never had a great translation (what a beautiful duwang!) but the anime is fuckin tight. And I hate anime.

speaking of part 4, its the series where the author transitioned from muscleman to twink. Phone posting so no pics but it's worth comparing drawings of Josuke at the start of his story to him at the end.
