Jojo's Bizarre Adventure - Don't Say Wrry Edition

No character tops Kira Yoshikage.

Mostly because he’s a unrepentant sociopath.

I just came upon a strange realization of how similar Santana and Raditz are to each other.

[details=Spoiler]
The introduction of both reveals something that changes the history of previous chapters. Goku is the way he is because he is an alien,and the stone masks that created the vampires were actually created by the pillar men.

Both are built up to be major threat when they appear (Holy $#!* it’s Goku’s Brother, Holy $#!* it’s a super vampire that eats other vampires).

Both end up too much for the hero to take alone, so he teams up with someone who had been used as a bad guy before (Piccolo, Stroheim).

The teams barely manage to defeat them by having one member give the other the chance they need to finish them by using suicidal means. (Goku dies holding Raditz in place for the special beam cannon, Stroheim blows himself up to expose Santana,which gives Joseph a chance to finish him)

Afterwards it is revealed that there are other survivors of their kind that are far stronger than them coming soon, and upon the arrival of those people it is revealed that they thought Raditz/Santana were actually weak and that they didn’t care that they were dead, they were just coming for their dragonballs/red stone of Asia. Afterwards these seemingly important villains are rarely mentioned again.

They were both created pretty close to each other as well, Santana appearing less than a year before Raditz did.[/details]

Currently reading Jojolion, I didn’t have much interest in it until playing JJASB since I thought he looked weird and rather lacking. Surprsingly I care about his story, and the mystery so far is pretty solid and I am invested.

Tried to finish Part IV but got to the poorly written sections in small text and it all but killed my momentum, need to see if I can find better translations quickly.

Started Part V as well but I dunno, hasn’t really caught on for me yet really. I can’t even find Part VI anywhere at all, and I am still lagging behind in Part VII.

So many Jojo’s…

Reminds me Part III needs to hurry up and get animated already.

Awesome thank you.

Oh thank the gods, I really didn’t want to pony up for the importing.

Not sure what they’ll do with the names since 99% of them are copyrighted.

New chapter of Jojolion. IS seems as the parts have gone on there has been a shift away from standard humanoid looking Stands with a weird ability toward stands that are just odd things that cause weird stuff to happen.

*Link to newJojolion. *

Well at least after I read this one I am all caught up. Jojolion surprisingly great so far.

Jojolion chapter 24 spoilers: [details=Spoiler]That’s right Mum, you tell Yasuho, don’t let anyone get in the way of your hobby. After a hard day, who doesn’t wanna unwind with Playstation and whiskey? Lol at the random room Yasuho was in before, Bruce Lee posters, Ultraman and Astroboy stuff.

This chapter was very trolltastic, people’re joking that it’s Araki’s way of poking fun at his “same-face” drawing. I have some speculation around how Tsurugi’s ability works, but I think I’m wrong so I’m just see gonna how it all unfolds (no pun intended).

The most direct informative thing in this chapter was Tsurugi’s line about the Higashikatas wanting “prosperity for the next generation”, plus some random pun on Higashikata. I suspect the random room’s also gonna come into play.[/details]

They’ll get the same treatment as Kars, Wammu and Esidisi.

That or they may have some kind of deal, it’s a PS3 exclusive title that had massive day one sales, how many of the bands referenced are signed with Sony music?

Even if its not all of them, previous sales may have given Namco the confidence to pay the other publishers for rights to use the names.

Actually prefer those, and it flip flopped a lot to my knowledge. The only blatant issues I would think is Stand names. Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap would be difficult to work around lol.

I’m sure they’ll just leave it in romaji and just use Engrish and just call it a day.

so what is the best place to get JPN playstation card codes? i am ready to get the other characters now that enough have been released

Not a manga guy hope they will animate all the way up to Jojolion

Only recently started getting into this series. What the fuck have I been doing with my life up to this point?

I’m on ep 19 of the anime and I plan on picking the manga up where that leaves off, but holy shit this series is nutty and I love it.

whats goin on with the anime? any word yet?
