JoJo's Bizarre Adventure All-Star Battle confirmed by Bandai-Namco

Wow Rohan and Cars, so I guess that list wasn’t bullshit. Both happy and sad, sad that it lacked Old Man Joseph on it.

How will I OOOOOH MAAAH GAAAWD! now?

I don’t doubt at the very least Old Joseph will be in the story mode. I want to hear OH MY GOD! From Sugita (the voice actor) so bad!

I make it a habit to never believe “leaked” lists, no matter how legit they look.

Plus, I find it kinda weird it has so many dudes from Vento Aureo, not to mention weird choices like Abbachio and Fugo.

Then again, if they can make Rohan work, those two could work. Maybe give Moody Blues a Twelve style X.C.O.P.Y? I dunno.

Mokujin style would also fit Abbacchio. His Stand either randomly changes each round * to appear as various characters* or it can copy his opponent ala Twelve’s super. Still Abbacchio and Fugo IMO are not as important as Rohan and I’d rather see more Steel Ball Run characters like Hot Pants or Wekapipo.

TTT2’s resolution drops significantly with more than two characters on the screen… it looks like shit, but the tag effects and the fact that it’s only for a split second means it’s not that easily noticeable.

This game also has to be able to do 4 characters at once, if there’s two stand characters fighting with their stands out.

right, how can I forgot that a stand = rendering another character.

I hope theres enough space for ‘minor but memorable enemy characters’ like Rubber Soul, Prosciutto, Chocolatta

Gentlemen.

I don’t always post anime… but when I do, I prefer dubstep.

Ciccolatta has a voice actor already, so it soft confirms he’ll be in All Star Battle to some capacity. Either as playable or perhaps a mini game/stage hazard character. But I’m leaning on playable. I’d perfer Proscuitto with Pesci support. The Grateful Dead fight on the train is not only my favorite part of Vento Aureo but one of my favorite fights in JoJo period.

I’d prefer Pesci over Proscuitto since that damn fishing rod would make a great zoning character. Plus he’s one of my favorite villains in JoJo.

I’d be fine with either of them actually I like them both, they are like Hol/Hanged Man or Wekapipo/Magenta Magenta duo Stand teams. I guess its a matter of who’s developing it that chooses who would make more logical sense as the dominant fighter. I also think it would be likely to see Soundman’s sound dinosaurs in Diego Brando’s attacks.

I recently looked at the old Jojos anime from the 90s which just so happens to start at episode 3 where as the new anime stops at that very point.

Now that I know up to part 4 I want more in a visual form I hope they do some kind of story mode that focuses on each saga. Maybe a few NPC that will end up in a sequel or something. I would love that.

Diavolo, Bruno and Narancia apparently confirmed:

Someone will post scans soon I bet.

The scan with them, also a new stage, aparently the train from the fight with prosciutto (gratefull dead) and pesci (beach boy)

Spoiler

I’m sure no one is going to complain which is a very damn good thing and all but…

Damn, just how many characters are they going to cram into this game!?

I’m a little surprised by Narancia, I had Fugo in over him, but I’m not really upset. More characters is always better, right? Diavolo and Bruno were obvious, but I’m still excited to see their movesets.

Face lick super and teleports with Sticky Fingers?

Explaining how it works with King Crimson?

I wanna see what CC2 does with their movesets.

So hype to play as Buccellati, and King Crimson will be interesting (I hope Doppio is factored into his gameplay somehow since I’m not a huge Diavolo fan), maybe he can actually make matches go faster by skipping time? I’m wondering what a unique but balanced way to implement his ability would be…I really liked Narancia, he’s my second favorite Vento Aureo (parte5) character. I think if he can control Aerosmith remotely it’ll make for really interesting gameplay. He’s easily the 4th most important of the Gangstars so it was likely, but I wasn’t sure if he’d get in. Given that Part 5 is the second or arguably most popular arc in Japan, we can expect to see even more Italian mafia up in ASB before its all done. Preview Video 5 is gonna be jam packed with new footage, really hope we get a new demo next month too…that’d be really nice. Anyway I’ll post the HQ scan here:

I’m thinking with story mode, we’ll get both a What If, main story (ala Injustice? or other anime crossover games like Gundam Dynasty Warriors) as well as a more traditional “best of JoJo’s fights” mode which features the most important fights and 1 or 2 cinematics per arc, since it’d be hard to retell the entire story through a fighting game in a super interesting way unless it had a TON of NPC’s and mini games. I’m hoping the next preview also focuses on some of the mechanics, story and unlockables like the whole customize costume thing.

americanDREAM thanks for the scan, the one I posted got some inexplicable error

Well, they turned Scarlet Overdrive in a shoryuken and Sendo Hamon Overdrive in jax’s ground pound
with this Diavolo can come with anything that “just works”… it will be interesting.

also the game needs Mikitaka to play like Mokujin

Sweet, I hope the next next month’s scan is filled with some pt. 6 reveals. Really want to see FF, Weather Report and Pucci. And although I didn’t so much care for Annasui, I think he’d be a perfect fit with this game with those Diver Down shenanigans.
