Family members are usually the best judges of character (see: OG Kira's dad).

I'm pretty sure even OG Kira's dad knew he was a poo poo, he just didn't care.

Is there any part that hates dogs more than part 3? I remember at least four dead dogs off the top of my head including Iggy, plus at least one cat to boot.

Dog in Yellow Temperance fight
Dog in Death 13 fight
2 Dogs in the Petshop fight
Iggy's death against Vanilla Ice

Were there any others? I'm convinced Araki just doesn't like animals very much.

Not really, Kars is portrayed as an unhinged monster. If anything him saving the dog is probably meant to add to his villainy... only in an Araki comic.

Dio cut off a cat's head and threw it on someone's dinner plate while he stopped time to kill Joseph.

I will point out that alternate universe Diego lets a fangirl get hit with Tusk act 3 and tries to light a cripple on fire.
So yeah he does become more of an rear end in a top hat everytime he shows up.

Well, "taste of a liar" is by far the most iconic panel in Part5. That poo poo is a solid 10 in Jojoness.

I dunno, it was the torture dance that really sold me on part 5. If there's one thing about Vento Aureo I wanna see animated, it's that.

Speaking of Part 5, is there any confusion about King Crimson's abilities among the fandom over in Japan, or was it better explained due to being in it's native language?

As said like ten million times before in this thread, the english translation for part 5 is really god drat bad. There's a few contradicting explanations within it, this is obviously not the case with the original version. So it's pretty unlikely, if not outright impossible for this to be the case in the native language.

In my completely unfair, biased opinion, a part 5 anime adaptation would be boss if:

  1. The torture dance is properly animated.
  2. If they have to follow the trend of the Part 3 anime (so far) and have only 2 of the ASB voice actors reprise their role, then let it be Noriaki Sugiyama as Bruno and Toshiyuki Morikawa as Diavolo. Giorno feels way better suited to a younger-sounding voice actor (Miyu Irino or Ryohei Kimura, maybe?)
  3. That they keep the inane conversations / goofy interactions intact. Mista and Narancia are so goddamn fun.

Well, they've been adding goofy side conversations/interactions to part 3, so I don't think we have to worry about them taking those out.

Girno's voice would be better if they actually used the voice they did for the part 5 game.

Please no, do not use Romi Park. Daisuke Namikawa's voice is fine he just needs to actually sound intense when he's yelling and not boring as hell.

I dropped Vento Aureo just after the Diavolo vs that guy with the Metallica stand fight because of the lovely early scans, really thinking of starting again if there are better ones available though.

I think MangaReader has some good scans of Vento Aureo.

Also, for a Stand with some pretty bad looking stats, Metallica is pretty awesome.

Nope. Anything after volume 49 is poo poo. There will never be good scans for part 5, at least not anytime soon.
