It's not like their usual method of sitting on it all until after its aired and then dumping it all at once long after is any better.

You people are weird as gently caress. Why would I want to wait for more Jojo?

You... do have to wait for more Jojo though. Longer, even. After watching all 12 episodes in a row, you then have to wait like at least 3 months for any more at all.

Since no one else had, I threw together a quick simulwatch thread for folks that want to do a regular staggered watch schedule when it drops later today; https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3986588

Boy 2 Man has Rohan's purest distilled character moment though: Punching out a grade schooler and gloating about it.

Also stealing a baby and using her to cheat.

Polpo didn't know what Giorno's Stand was, or if he even had one. By the time Bucciarati was promoted, he was already all in on the plan to kill the boss so probably wouldn't do that either.

Folks Giorno fight don't really get a chance to attack the animals at that point, either because they can't or just get owned before it comes up. It's sorta like how the filling dudes with so much life thing never happens again, because Gold Experience just doesn't hit dudes directly after Black Sabbath, unless it's the final blow ending the fight (Cioccolata definitely woulda got it, for example, to make that 7 page beatdown felt like an eternity).

Also, really, Giorno just doesn't get that many solo fights, and the ones he does are mostly against Stands like Babyface where none of this stuff is applicable anyway. Definitely feels like Gold Experience had to be written around, rather than have fights written for, because it's just too much poo poo to juggle and deal with otherwise.

Yeah, that's fair. Vento Aureo easily has so many of my favourite fights in it, but as an actual Part it's fairly low. Weird how that works.
