It's almost shocking to see an anime about people fighting with psychic creatures and not a single card or video game to accompany it.

Well, I mean, aside from All Star Battle.

The animation looks so good, the music is like if someone tried to compose something out of the 90s intentionally, and the voices are so drat good.

This is too much excitement for me.

There's also a JoJo card game. It's where we got a first glimpse of Jotaro and P3-DIO in the style of the TV series.

Was that a real deal card game? I thought that was just a what if style project because the site I found them on took them a down a while ago.

Also, the flow on Jotaro getting slammed against the wall. :allears: Please don't be a fluke, please don't be a fluke.

I think it wasn't specifically a Jojo game, but one of those card games that has a lot of series in it.

Really? Because this latest PV definitely sounds like him to me. I know he wasn't happy with the sound direction in part 2, but maybe he decided to give it a shot with a new sound director or something. I was pretty sure Sawano was gonna end up doing the OST though.

If it is Iwasaki, the soundtrack's gonna be great. On the other hand, the idea of each part having a different composer is something I'd miss.

It's not Iwasaki because Iwasaki got super pissed at the production crew for how they used his songs in part 2.

True, but remember that this is a PV of early episodes. Anything that ends up in the PV is going to be some of their best looking work.

Well, they didn't even really have enough to fully fluff up the PVs of the first two parts, so the fact that they have this much is still an improvement.

The stands of the main characters in parts 3-6 are named after increasingly common materials, platinum -> diamond -> gold -> stone.

If you stretch it a bit, this trend continues into 7-8 with tusk/bones -> soft and WET

I always thought it was kind of lame that Silver Chariot Requiem and Gold Experience Requiem were called that, instead of "upgrading the materials" of their base Stands to something like Gold Chariot and Platinum Experience.

Guess that means Pt 9 will have a stand made of air and gas.

It's not animation, but the real stories!
The same person that translated the small Araki talk on the first volume of Jojonium just posted the one for volume 2. And it looks like they intend on doing all of them as they come out. This time it's focused on Will A. Zeppeli. As usual it's a pretty good read.

I like how Araki was intent on making Zeppeli seem weak but be surprisingly strong when he was built like a brick shithouse just like every other main character.

I'll have you know that 12-year olds back in the Victorian Era were that big.

Hearing Araki was inspired by Drunken Master and Mr. Miyagi for Zeppeli is very fitting. I'm curious to see if anything inspired Joseph or if that's 100% his own crazy mind.

Weird, unlike Johnathan and Dio, Zeppeli looks pretty drat cool on Araki's current style. Interesting read though!

My source at Crunchyroll told me that as of now they don't know of plans to simulcast it at the moment. However this may change.
