Honestly the worst part of Stone Ocean is the (maybe slightly mistranslated) line "I can't wait to get our of this Stone Ocean"
Like what the gently caress is that writing

a typo?

I still can't get over the copyright name change making the naming of Jolyne's Stand a bit funnier.

I was rereading the beginning in prep for the new episode and I had forgotten that he introduced Green Dolphin as 'the Aquarium'. He was putting in some legwork :shrug:

Speaking of which is that the only time we see a stand user name their own stand?

On part 8’s long final battle. I think the Funny Valentine battle was longer was it not?

Probably, but D4C and it's sections felt climactic. We didn't know that JJL was ending truly until the month before the last issue and the head doctor was very much a left field this dude is the final boss moment.

I was saying for months that it was very obviously the final boss but a lot of people were in denial.

I think they trimmed down Jolyne's flashback too, which I think hurt the fake Jotaro reveal even if it still is funny.

Only to episode 7 so far, but off the top of my head I noticed they got rid of saying the guard looked like Tom Cruise, the scene with Jolyne being in awe at seeing a trans man, Gwess saying she named her stand after her favorite band, and the small DiU reference when Jolyne says Jotaro didn’t come back from the countryside when she was sick. Still a great adaptation though!

If I had to pick which part of the Jojo anime I thought looked rough, I wouldn't have gone with 1/2.

The art style in 1/2 is fine but the animation is very obviously incredibly limited.

This looks about the same as all of them to me to be honest.
It has its moments of QUALITY but it's generally pretty.

I'm about half way through this drop and it's been pretty drat good so far.

Glad they're present minded enough to cut stuff like this. Not necessary then, def not now.

Why does everyone think I'm going to get in trouble?

Every three months or so I think? It's about the same amount of time you'd have to wait to get to the start of the next block of episodes, everything just gets frontloaded to the start of every three month period.

The anti gravity fight was so much improved by being in animation - my biggest problem with 6 is that some of the battles are ridiculously hard to follow in the manga, so if every one improves like that (hello, Dragon's Dream), it will definitely improve my ranking of part 6.

I just discovered the jojo VS bot, which posts random matchups. Some of them are interesting to consider, like Kakyoin vs. Illuso.

Others would be hilariously one-sided or dumb, like

I always figured it was something like that, but with life-draining properties. If it wasn't eating her and she could control it maybe she could sap someone quicker than a month

The secret was the vines were draining her life force to convert it into hyper-hamon channeled outside her body. Santana would be annihilated.

The 50 day illness should've been her hell climb pillar, and Joseph just needed to teach her breathing exercises to manage it.

That would have been so good. I'd trade at least two of the pre Egypt fights for that
