Kira Yoshikage Wants a Quiet Life is a slice of life romantic-comedy about a small town salaryman who's learned to appreciate the little things in life. Handsome, intelligent, and naturally disarming, Kira Yoshikage paradoxically prefers to stand out of the limelight, content to live a life of peace and quiet. Unfortunately, he's got a bit of a problem: a local group of no-good hooligans have taken to harassing him for no good reason, even going so far as to interupt his lovelife! A slave to his own modest creature comforts, does Kira have what it takes to triumph against adversity and reclaim his peaceful life? A modest man of considerable talent, Kira Yoshikage likes to take things at his own pace. Despite his generally laidback demeanor, he's a little awkward around women he likes and tends to get a little handsy, a habit that typically kills his relationships. Otherwise, he's lead a pretty good life. Likes cats. An old aquaintance of Kira's, it sometimes feels like Reimi Sugimoto hasn't aged a day. She disapproves of his lifestyle, perhaps wishing he'd have aimed for nobler things, but there's little she can do beyond nagging to his neighbors. Likes dogs. Insult his looks and you'll wind up in the hospital, Josuke Higashikata is the leader of the delinquents set on disturbing Kira's worry-free life. Tall and intimidating, Josuke has little trouble "Converting" people to his way of thinking, and is always on the prowl for his latest fix. Hates turtles, but why hate Kira?

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is an action-adventure manga written and illustrated by noted rock fan and unconfirmed vampire Hirohiko Araki concerning the many weird and varied experiences of a group of people nicknamed "Jojo" who are all related to each other in some form or another. First published in 1987, Jojo was originally envisioned as a generational tale that was supposed to be told and wrap up neatly in three separate, easily-digestible story arcs, or "Parts." We're currently on Part 8. It's been nearly thirty years. Twenty-five years into this gig, Araki finally managed to land himself a TV anime deal with David Productions. Parts 1 and 2 were adapted in 2012, followed by the ever-popular Part 3 in 2014. Well now it's 2016, so you know what that means. Welcome, friends, to Jojo Part 4: Diamond is Unbreakable. If Part 3 can be considered the "Definitive" Jojo, Part 4 is perhaps the most "Beloved." Having concluded the core story he wanted to tell with the first three parts, Araki decided he really liked the concept of stands, actually, and wanted to see what else he could do with it. Thus was Part 4 born! Sometimes called JoJo's Bizarre Slice of Life, Part 4 takes a more modest, more human direction, focusing exclusively on the sleepy Japanese town of Morioh, S City M Prefecture, based off Araki's own hometown of Sendai. Entirely fictional, Morioh nonetheless feels like a fully realized location, and is probably one of the stronger arguments for the setting of a story being a character in its own right. Our protagonist this time around is Josuke Higashikata, just a regular high school student with a single mother and a The bulk of Part 4, then, is just Josuke and his friends getting into (and out of) all kinds of trouble. There's an overarching plot with a certain amount of gravity to it, but as with Part 3 it's much more about the journey than it is the destination. So take a load off, enjoy yourself, and settle in to Morioh. RULES FOR THE THREAD

THE STORY THUS FAR A decade after the death of Dio Brando, the Joestar family is once again in peril. Jotaro Kujo, accomplished marine biologist and psychic, has been dispatched to the town of Morioh, yet again burdened with an unreasonable request. His mission is to track down two different people: a mysterious serial killer whose methods are unknown, and an ordinary high schooler who happens to be his uncle. CHARACTERS Koichi Hirose is a perfectly ordinary high schooler, but not the one Jotaro's looking for. Jotaro Kujo is a perfectly ordinary world famous globetrotting marine biologist psychic weightlifter whose accomplishments include murdering an orangutan and a vampire. He was the protagonist of the previous part. He is not the protagonist of this part. Josuke Higshikata is the protagonist of this part. He's the ordinary high school student Jotaro is looking for. What's with that stupid hairstyle? Crazy Diamond is Josuke's stand, a visual manifestation of his latent psychic powers. Crazy Diamond fixes things by punching them really hard. He'll fix your face. "Angelo" is the mysterious serial killer whose methods are unknown. Jotaro's still looking for him. Probably has a stand. Hates dog poop.

Man, I'm just so happy, I started by watching the 2012 anime a few months before Stardust Crusaders started but once the break between the two halves of Stardust Crusaders happened I just jumped into DiU (having already known most of The World and having a good idea of who lives and dies due to internet osmosis) and out of all I read this part and Part 7 were my favorites, so it's gonna be so good to see it all come to anime life and actually understand the references in an OP.

I'm not excited for davids 3/4 chapters per episode pacing to mean we get an entire season before the best character shows up I AM excited for morioh in motion though because even if part 4 isn't my favorite part it's easily got the most interesting setting

If the 39 episode count for DiU is true, good bye 3 chapters per ep, hello breakneck pacing.
