It’s currently up in the air if the 3rd story arc is going to get animated or not even though David Productions did put that rather huge teaser in the final episode of Jojo’s TV series. No official word on it, only a teaser, & with that we have to just wait and see what happens and hope that their going to continue the series going into Stardust Crusaders and then hopefully go into “Diamond is not Crush”.
They’d have to be mad men to not animate part 3, given the teaser and the fact part 3 prints money, really.
Whats the theme with the character names? Or am I looking into it too much?
I noticed part 3 has characters names after popular 80s pop/dance artists in the US (lisa lisa, devo, vanilla ice etc etc) and part 6 is named after high fashion designers around the world (MiuMiu, Pucci, Hermes, Kenzo, D&G)
This is really a cool series when you think about it
Part 4 has many Music References too! Like Red Hot Chilli Pepper, Heavens Door, Another one bites the Dust and so on… btw i’ve read on the Jojo Forums that a European Version might come “Sooner or later”, i hope that’s true. And yeah, an Anime of Part 4 would be awesome, i think we can be sure that they’re working on Part 3.
Honestly, I really dislike Part 3 in comparison to most of the other parts. I think part 5 handles the traveling aspect much better…and Jotaro isn’t the greatest MC, in terms of personality. IMO.
Also, after the greatness that is Joseph in Part 2, seeing him in Part 3 is kind of sad. He lost everything that he was. I wish he could have encountered Alessi or something, that would have been cool.
I like this Enrico Pucci character right now he is like my favorite so far along with AC/DC
I think Part 3 is actually really fun. Polnareff is one of my favorite characters, and part 3 Dio is awesome. I found part 5 to be much more inventive then 3, but it straight up borrows so much from it (and the aspect of learning about each location in part 3 was so cool), it doesn’t feel as unique as Steel Ball Run or Diamond is Unbreakable by comparison (which only borrowed tiny bits from previous parts). I also think the humor in Part 3 is what sets it apart from 5, to each their own of course. I think each arc of JoJo has something awesome to offer, its just some are better then others. Part 1 is actually my least favorite but its still awesome because it has Zeppeli, Jonathan, Speedwagon and DIOOOOOOOOO!!!
Have fun learning more about Jojo’s Yah Yaahh B*tch! If you ever read Part 4, be sure to look out for the newer scans done by theinvincibletrio, they’re almost done with retranslating Part 4 (which was notorious for horrible scan/translation)!
I’m still thinking Iggy should be in this game, I love that pup, I seem to lean towards the sassy assholes of each main character group in Jojo : Kid Dio in part 1, Caesar in 2, Iggy in 3, Rohan in 4, Abbachio in 5, Anasui in 6, well Gyro Johnny and Diego were all kinda jerks, probably why its my favorite part!
Personally, Jotaro is my favourite JoJo due to his awful one liners and constant attempts to be badass while Star Platinum reveals his true emotions. Even if its not from part 3, ‘Your face, that is’ still cracks me up every time.
Kinda bummed about this 30 FPS thing. Is this going to turn off the other communities?
Also it looks a little slow…floaty jumps. I need a 30% overclock.
I wont talk no more shit. Promise.
Well, I want to wait to judge the whole frame/jump issue. I know its standard issue, but the game looks good anyway visually. The question is if its consistent 30fps, will the inputs be good? If there’s no frame drop it should be good right? Sorry I don’t know much about that.
We may be getting new news next week (we’ve been getting something new practically each month via VJump (Shonen Jump’s Video game off shoot magazine) which later goes up on the Famitsu website. Next issue of VJump is next week, so I’m hoping we get some more news on who’s being revealed next. I hope the next trailer focuses on in game mechanics/features for the game.
I know they’ve said the next trailer will try to encapsulate everything (ALL characters) we know about the game up till now and more.
I wonder what the Soundtrack will be like. I need some good Music while playing Fighting Games, hoping for the Dubstep Music from Part 2 or the function to use Custom Soundtracks.
And some news on the Story Mode would be pretty cool.
Rohan and Cars have been revealed!!

A bit more info from the guy who translated the 2ch impressions.
“Situation Finish: In certain stages, you can finish an opponent in a certain way and a special cutscene is triggered. Joseph’s fight with Wham is pictured.
Rush Mode: Something similar to Blazing Fist matches.
AND CUSTOMIZE, not only for costumes, but for your character’s poses and lines.”
Better Cars scan. I am SO hype. Rohan my boy is in, literally my fav Jojo character. As an artist I’m so excited about the prospect of literally drawing all over you fools. Ah hype, I swear, PV5 cannot come soon enough! I want see Cars and Rohan animated now!
Sounds like the customization thing is for dialogue and SFX in their win pose, along with color/costume edit mode. Similar to CvS2 I assume, but maybe it will be like Tekken? With editable outfits like part 4 Jotaro etc. I can’t wait to hear more news on this one.
^ This represents the entire Jojo fandom right now.
Sweet! Happy we have all the (important) Pillar Men. I’m guessing UltiKars is his Great Heart Heat Attack (or whatever the hell they call it)?
Rohan is also sweet. Can’t wait for the new trailer showing them all in action! Just give me Old Man Joseph and F.F and I’ll be the happiest boy in the world!
The game should still be able to read inputs independent of framerate, or so I imagine… but I’m sure the 30 fps cap is going to make the game feel sluggish and a little unresponsive. Seems like a really weird decision for a fighting game. I realize they wanted to get as much visual fidelity packed in there, but…
If its not frames, why is 30fps have input lag?
30fps is a pretty big turn off…
Looking at the PVs it doesn’t seem that graphically demanding, comapred to something like say, TTT2 which has much more rendering in the back ground and 4 chars at once.
come on, bannam,
Yeah this 30 fps thing is going to be interesting. Was Battle Fantasia 30fps?
Excited about cars…kinda wanted the headwrap aunt Jemima version tho.
I bet Mannish Boy with Death 13 and Justice will be DLC. I dreamed about it.
