Vagithug posted:Araki is a big fan of fashion design and whatnot. Didn't he actually design some outfits that models wore and such? While some of his designs are really over-the-top (and I wouldn't have it any other way ), Araki is usually really good at making outfits POP.

I don't know if he actually designed anything, but he was a major influence in the Japanese fashion scene a long while back.

I can't decide whether or not the series is trying to appeal to the homosexual male or heterosexual female demographics. Yeah, wouldn't want to like something FOR GIRLS.

I don't know if there was a fashion show, but I know Araki had like an entire exhibit in his hometown of Sendai dedicated to 25 years of work he had done on JoJo and he's even in the Louvre for how good his art is.

Like, if your reaction to how fabulous Jojo is to ask "Is this marketed at gays or women? " Jojo might not be for you, because it only gets more fabulous from here, and also I don't like you.

Yeah it was a colab with a hair and make-up stylist from Shiseido, Tadashi Harada, to commemorate the new headquarters opening in Ginza and a second shoot was done for request/ qj magazine. They were great photo shoots and I hope more will be done in the future.

If you can't handle pretty men, handsome ladies, and fabulous poses, then yeah you should just get off the Jojo train. I mean, look at Joseph's stripper pants in all those Battle Tendency promo drawings. That's LOW on the Jojo homo-eroticism totem pole. God bless every mad person who helps make this series As for the actual episode, Joseph's right hot colais a god drat crime.

Robviously posted:Oddly enough Polnareff's work's very good in the abstract as well once we learn more about our fine French friend. I mean, hell, tarot reading is basically all about merging the literal and abstract. I'm on my phone currently but once I get to my computer I'll make a more post in regards to Jotaro, Joseph, and the bizzare adventures of the Tarot. This shot also gave me a priestly vibe, which would fit the Hierophant.

Dio actually spends the majority of his time spying on Joseph and friends with Hermit Purple, it's just off screen so we never know it and he obviously just copied the naming scheme from them cause it was too cool to pass up.

No DIO thought of the scheme first, then that drat Joestar body went and told Joseph. DIO bites no one's style rather, ironically, it is the style of DIO that is bitten!

During the airplane battle, I thought the solution to "how do we find the Stand user" was rather simple : just find whoever has the most flamboyant outfit. Then it turned out that the Stand user was just some old man. But then, Polnareff happened and yeah, they should have seen this one coming.

It's obviously going to be more than 26 episodes, the pacing has been so meticulous that we've barely covered one out of 16 manga volumes in four episodes. They wouldn't cover the beginning in such loving detail, even adding in extra scenes, if they were going to cut out more significant stuff later on.
