Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

KamenRiderNeko

What seiyuu would you like to see in a part 4 anime? I'm hoping for Takahiro Sakurai (Kusuriuri, Cloud Strife, Polar Bear) as Mikitaka, the "alien".

I honestly hope they use some of the actors from the ASB game. Though I agree with you on Mikitaka's voice. Actually, I'd love to see Yamaguchi Kappei do Okuyasu's voice.

@RamistaR:

I think Diamond is Unbreakable is much better than Stardust Crusader. I can't wait to see it animated.
My favorite story was Star Higway. Eventhough Jotaro didn't appear in this story, it was very thrilling.
Oh boy Jotaro: "Nice watch. Too bad you won't be able to tell the time on it after I break it. Break you face that is!"
I really like Rohan too. Always on Hiatus LoL.
Now I will start Vento Aureo. I have the feeling that I'm going to hear of this invisible baby again…

Part 4 was pretty good, I personally still like SDC better, but I loved the slice of life/mystery element that DIU had. I didn't hate anything about it. Yeah, gonna have to agree with SpaceCowboy, Vento Aureo is good so far, but I have a feeling it's just going to upset me, haha.

A spoiler that is actually a non-spoiler? It's up to you:

! Here is the thing: never expect to hear of anything again when it comes to Araki. It's just not how he works, he is not the foreshadowing type. More like the "What, I did that!? How do you guys remember those things?" type.

Iggy, old joseph, dio 1 and N'doul confirmed for eyes of heaven.

.access timeco.

Seeing N'doul in somehow awoke a little spark of hype in me! A very little spark, but still one.

If only the demo didn't totally suck… :/ I hate this, after almost going crazy waiting for Diego to be confirmed in ASB, I would love to be excited for the game that finally brought him in.

About vanilla ice part 2 and spoilers for next episode

! ohhhhh that cliff hanger was so good. If i didn't already know what happens i would've been shocked. Is it me or is the room they are fighting in smaller than it was in the manga? If anything the stairs position has been flipped. That also means next week is Dio-sama! Crazy stair shenanigans yes please.

Re: the new episode. (DON'T click this if you haven't read Parts 3 and 5 to the very end)

! As moving as that was (I had forgotten about Polnareff going through his options, that's one of his best moments), I sort of wish they hadn't put Polnareff's line at the end of the next-episode preview, it's too much of a spoiler. I had forgotten how heart-wrenching this battle is.
! Also now I'm picturing an AU where Iggy survived rather than Polnareff. Sad thing is, Polnareff would probably have preferred dying to living on with more guilt, as a turtle no less…

@Smiley:

I watched this whole thing a few weeks ago, it was hilarious! Also makes me sad that Koji Yusa isn't anime Kakyoin's voice, because holy shit his voice in the game is so awesome. Nothing against Daisuke Hirakawa, I've grown fond of his Kakyoin too. Also, bonus points because Hirakawa is the official dub voice for Orlando Bloom and also did Loki in the Marvel movies.

Hnnngh! Kakyoin and Avdol! w

Damn that was brutal…

Chariot animation was amazing this week.

Anyone knows the name of that soundtrack when JP and Iggy are running towards the door and JP gives the pep talk to Iggy? Around minute 6 I think.

I would love to see a Jump tag-team match with Iggy & Crocodile , examples of pure badassness.

That was definitely an episode where I felt like I needed to grab a washcloth and dab at my forehead afterwards. Quite intense, and even though I know how that blankety-blank is not blankety-blank'd I have no idea how they get out of that jam, so that's nice.

Also managed to pick up Jojonium Vol. 2 today though it took a bit of a hike, so it's been a good day for Jojo today.

Something that was not on the Departure OST

there are 4 OST for Crusaders

Departure (Stand-Alone OST 1)
Journey (Bundled with a Blu-ray Soundtrack 1)
World (Bundled with a Blu-ray Soundtrack 2)
Destination (Stand-Alone OST 2)

Destination is the only one not out.

So check out World and Journey to see if what you heard Is on them, if not then it will be on Destination.

I've read Parts 1 and 2 in full, following the anime for Part 3 since it first started airing right after I finished Part 2, and I know the general gist of each following part.

I checked both earlier and didn't found it in either.
Must be on Destination, but i'll double check World later to make sure.
Thanks for the info!

I thought you still had not read part 1 since you made a post about Jojonium 1 only some days ago. Makes sense now.

But yeah great ep. Part 3 gets really intense once they get to Cairo and Araki amps it up to 11 from Vanilla Ice onward

SpaceCowboy

Found it!

It was in World after all

DIO

I would really like to see a Jojo Part 1 to 3 Soundtrack Collection Set come out.

All 8 Soundtrack CDs make 180 Tracks of Jojo music together

Cause I only have Future(25 tracks),Musik(22 tracks),Depature(23 tracks) now and will get Destination(27 tracks) ASAP.

Also I wonder who would be a Good Music Composer for Diamond is Unbreakable?

Someone who can get the musical feel for Josuke's Story just right.

The man in the mirror fight (Vento Aureo) was way too complicated. It might look better in the anime though.

It was? I thought it was quite good, even if I agree that it was a bit harder to follow then most before it.
I still think the most confusing Part 5 fight was the one in the Boat where Moody Blues gets used, especially because I still have no idea on how Zucchero´s (I think that´s the name) stand works and how it managed to

! create the other boat thing

Apart from that, Jumpin´ Jack Flash on Stone Ocean…

! Soft Machine is a stand that will deflate anything it impales. Anything that has been deflated by Soft Machine turns limp and almost fabric-like.
Zucchero managed to hide from everyone else on the boat by wrapping the boat in the skin of another deflated boat, and hiding himself (also deflated through Soft Machine) between the layers of the boat. He didn't create another boat, he deflated one before they set sail, and was lying in wait for an opportunity to ambush.

RamistaR

The start of the fight against White Album is very thrilling. But once Mista falls in the water, everything gets unnecessarily complicated again. Still fun though.

"Unnecessarily complicated". Hah, you have no idea what the future holds!
But you will get used to it, it becomes one of the manga defining characteristics. And charms.

Unnecessarily complicated? You don't know unnecessarily complicated yet! Just you wait till part 5 puts you face to face with the most convoluted and stupidly complex stand power ever, so much so that pages of text have been dedicated to its explanation, with both minimalistic and daunting diagrams envisioned in an attempt to explain the damn thing. And no one, NO ONE, is even now 100% sure how the damn power works!

Mark my words. You're in for a ride you'll never truly understand.

Kaimon

Speaking of I just recently finished Steel Ball Run and I'm glad to say it definitely lived up to the hype, I don't like giving things 10s unless I've read/watched them at least twice but damn that final 1/3 was perfection

Comparing it to Parts 1 and 2, it really shows how far Araki has come as an artist and a storyteller, shit's great man. Shame it'll be like a decade before it's out in the states.

fuck vanilla ice he pissed me of so much on this episode

So you are pretty far into part 5 already, cool.

Part 6 has possibly my favourite fight against secondary villain in whole series. It takes some things from White Album fight but does them in far superior(in my opinion) way.

Write when you will be into part 6 - I wonder if you will guess what stand I meant here :ninja:

Cool series you picked for One Piece more frequent breaks.

Do you perhaps read Onepunch Man as well? Both versions - super nasty looking but legendary fun One version and amazingly pretty Murata OPM are easy to find on internet.

It's really not that hard to understand. I don't know why that's a thing.

Now, that one stand fight on Stone Ocean where Jolyne and Jotaro are in a prison room and everything was an illusion(?) That's the one I don't get. I stumbled straight through that one.

–- Update From New Post Merge ---

[hide]King Crimson erases time. It basically deletes reality. When King Crimson activates it's ability, time skips ahead ten seconds. Whatever happens in ten seconds in the future, happens right now.

So Giorno (or was it someone else's idea?)'s method of telling if King Crimson's ability is in effect is to use a "Blood Clock". Dripping blood bit by bit onto his hand. When time skips 10 seconds ahead, there is instantly way more blood than there should be.

One thing to know is that Diavolo also has Epitaph, a sub-stand that can see 10 seconds into the future. So he always knows what will happen, where everything is going to be 10 seconds ahead.

But since time is erased, the things that happened in those 10 seconds never actually happened.
T=0 seconds: Shots fired
T=1-9 seconds: Bullet pierces Diavolo and kills him
T=10 seconds: Bullet continues course behind Diavolo

King Crimson removes T=1-9 seconds, so the Bullet just harmlessly appears behind Diavolo immediately after the gun is fired.[/hide]

! But if the time is erased, how could the blood clock work?

Cyclone_Baroness

Getting closer!

This episode was pretty good. Vanilla Ice is much more insane than I remember.

Also just when I think I have the reasoning down for censorship they didn't do it for Ice's face getting stabbed. Oh well.

black-leg jex

@Bond:

! But if the time is erased, how could the blood clock work?

! t=0seconds = blood is dripping in a continues pattern, once every 2 seconds
T=1-9seconds = blood continues to drip in this pattern creating a puddle in ginornos hand
T=10seconds = giorno has a pile of blood in his hands
! King crimson erases the middle one and so it skips from blood
Dripping every 2 seconds and a little puddle to a massive one. The actual dripping no longer occupies but the blood will still be in his hand.
! Going with Diavalo being shot, if the bullet stayed in him at the 10 second mark rather than going through him then the effects of being shot are still there. In fact the piercing would be erased so Diavalo would not have any wounds but the bullet would still be inside of him.

We are almost at page 500. Are you guys really thinking about closing this thread with a King Crimson discussion? Shame on you

! Stupid me. I thought he had done something to thhe gang's boat, that's why it was't making any sense.
! He had previously deflated another. That makes more sense

I really loved Jumpin'n Jack Flash design and fight with him in general was all kinds of awesome for me, even as it was bit long.

In general last fight in part 7 was better but still I loved JJF and I remember it as one of bigest classic JoJo fight-moments.

TLC

! I think the worst thing about part V is what it did to Polnareff. We couldn't have had the guy live a happy life after SDC could we? No, instead he gets brought back only to become a cripple, get killed by the worst villain of the series and live the rest of his days as a spirit possessing a turtle. Blegh.

Ironically enough, we took the near the same amount of time that Araki had to finish Vento Aureo.

As this involves someone from part 3 i would spoiler tag this. Some people are only anime watchers

Lang´s design was amazing, maybe the best enemy design in SO.

At the beggining I actually thought that he was wearing the Stand, like Secco or White Album guy, but even if he wasn't, the mask and the floating sneakers did it for me.
I think he was just trying to do his best not to be identificated, but after seeing how people dress in that prison, I know nothing anymore.

As great and shocking as the kicking scene was otherwise, translating JoJo time into real time makes you question why Polpol wasted precious seconds monologuing instead of interrupting the beating several kicks earlier.
