Part 6 is where the stand powers go really off the rails and I'm dying to see it all animated.

I love that over the course of part 6 the entire gang just ends up with the attitude of "...man, gently caress alligators."

I just remembered that the prison manager's assistant is also an alligator.

Part 6 is probably the best source of weird-rear end out of context panels.

MachuPikacchu posted:

All this Part 6 talk made me want to reread it, and there is a science/biology/physics section in the middle of pretty much every fight. It owns.

A part 6 read thread could be cool to have before the part 7 one. It would be a good opportunity for the anime only people to jump on the manga train.

I cannot wait to share in the anime threads absolute bewilderment when Silver Chariot Requiem starts doing its dumb poo poo.

People talked about how the OP seems to spoil what happens at the end, but even a frame-by-frame analysis could not prepare them for all the bullshit that's about to go down.

Yeah, that's not where I expected this episode to end. I'm guessing they are going to mix up the order of things a bit and put the Rolling Stone stuff before Diavolo getting eternally dunked on.

I am hoping instead of just Jobin being the big bad, this part ends with a big 3-way showdown between Josuke & friends, Jobin & Kaato (maybe Tsurugi) and the rock people.

I really recommend re-reading JoJolion with the color scans. Some people might dislike them and that's fair, but not only do they help me keep track of action more, I think just the violently surreal color palette makes a stronger tone for me,

The purple grass and blue trees in the second one is so good.

Glorious.

there's a whole lot of poo poo that's really messy and I wonder if the corpse and wall eyes and such are going to be connected

also the head doctor's stand is a lot like the corpse's divine protection

I'm not sure Araki even remembers the wall eyes at this point.

I think Chase should have been the OP for part 8 instead of 4.

She's made a few background appearances here and there with most recent one being in chapter 75 when she and everyone else inside the Higashikata house were dying to Ozone Baby. Between that and being melted by Vitamin C she probably just decided to quit, no use in dying for a family she doesn't even like.

I mean, her half-brother still lives there. It's also where the fruit that can save her mom's brain was growing.

Wait, did Josuke even tell her about the rokaka?

Kira would have told her about the rokakaka being a thing but anything about it and the Higashikatas would have been Josuke's responsibility and we haven't seen them talking since chapter 17

I guess her stand is just pretty hard to write around. A real shame, considering she has just as much motivation to be involved in the plot as the main protagonist.

I just couldn't tell if it was meant to be a collage of like "look at this, some of these could be rock humans" or "check out this collage of rock women who look just like human women" or whatever

They are just there to illustrate human women. This very same chapter makes a point about how rock humans have no real family or form any bonds. Hermes and Enya both have family they care about deeply.

e: Though since part 7 and 8 are a different continuity, it is possible they are rock humans this time.

Do you think it'd have been better or worse received if part 6's ending was because of GER bullshit

Pucci's new universe didn't revert because he died, but because Giorno got pissed at all that bullshit ruining their vacation, so he undid it.

Taking hygiene seriously in your restaurant is exact opposite of being an rear end in a top hat.

On the other hand, putting your "pearl jam" in your customer's food is a real dick move.
