The DIU volume 1 is very much the same print and translation quality as JoJonium, but its outer design like the cover, spine and insert are better than the JoJoniums in Araki's newest style.


And it's DIU in English. What more could you ever need?

I can believe that Hato would be crazy for Damo, he was extremely hot.
I can believe that Giorno would steal 100 cars.
I wholly accept that Sheer Heart Attack has no weakness.

I will NOT accept that he is 89 years old. It is NOT TRUE.

It's definitely uneven. It peaks real good but some of it is just uninteresting. It's not even especially bad, just uninteresting.

King Crimson should definitely have had the chance to go out in a blaze of violent glory rather than what we get. It's really good to look at, the power is interesting (baffling) and it's just cool as gently caress.

A 1v1 sort of thing like DIO's World would have been the poo

Jojolion is a weird series but the weirdest thing about it is how horny the whole series is for Yasuho. Almost every character is trying to gently caress her. It's to the point where I wonder if she's under the effect of an enemy stand.

Araki being an immortal means his body works differently, so he's actually only just reached puberty.

When was the last time you saw an 89 year old who can use a phone?

One of my beefs with Stone Ocean is that there are in fact no gay girls and the one gay girl there could have been was redrawn into a dude.

They're fuckin gay!!!!!!!

King Crimson has the baby angry face literally just because Araki saw Total Recall, that's a known fact

Remember how they remade that film with Colin Farrell?

I wish King Crimson could erase that from existence.

Honestly he probably just doesn't know what it means in Spanish. The pronunciation is likely supposed to be more even all throughout, each syllable getting roughly the same speaking time and emphasis. Lo-ca-ca-ca.

I also wonder if "rokakaka" and "locacaca" are supposed to be the same word all along.

They are the same word and sound the same.
HWMN's translator is a stickler for translating how things should be in strict Hepburn kinda poo poo.

It's why Jousuke is Jou when literally everything has the Josukes as Jo and why Jotaro is almost never Joutarou now.

A good scan group would adopt Arakis visual localisations when the make sense as a word in English.

Like we know Kaato is meant to start with C but nope

My favourite thing about Josuke being Josefumi/Yoshikage is that the story has kinda just settled on only Kira being relevant anyway

New chapter is up on MangaDex

I can't decide if this chapter was the result of Araki spinning his wheels for a month or if he genuinely thinks we need to spend half of a chapter learning deep rock human lore and his musings on biology. The first fourteen pages are completely skippable, what a loving disappointment

what are you on about?
many of us have been wanting to learn about this for roughly a decade.

I love JoJolion but it's easily the least focused and probably most inconsistent in regards to plot points not being relevant and would have benefit from having a definitive villain maybe 50 (of its 100) issues ago.
I've not done a page count but I'd imagine it's also officially the longest part now, considering SBR didn't begin with 40 page chapters.

And frankly, even though I love JoJo so much and it is the true meaning of life, I'm not sure I want a part 9 if the lack of focus and inconsistency of things being ultimately relevant is going to worsen. If it does happen, and I'd trust Araki to change the formula as he has a lot of form for it, I'd like it to be another this is the end goal, get there thing like Part 3, SBR etc. For all the memes, Araki is actually getting fairly old and JJL has already taken 9 years. Like Karera was cool and she said she'd be back but where is she? Kaato's probably going to be back but I don't think I'd bet large on that mattering hugely.

Basically, I'd be sad but okay with JJL being the end.

Joshu has always sucked and his skeeviness has always been surplus to requirements.

This new chapter takes that and takes it from un-necessary and poo poo to 10 steps too far.
This ain't it Araki, even if Joshu gets fuckin' owned at the end once again.

Araki, it turns out, doesn't forget

Assuming it's not a translation error, he totally forgot their first name!!!

But yeah, the ultimate in gently caress you would be for Yasuho to do naughty things with Josuke with Joshu's hand so that's what I want to happen in the ending.

If my colleagues are any indicator, being even basic bitch level at google-fu is a genuine superpower to 99% of people

Genuinely wish they'd just seach "EXCEL COPY WITHOUT FORMATTING" for once in their lives instead of dragging me into a feckin zoom call for 5 minutes to show them the magic of Paste Special
