I watched the OVA of Baoh, Araki's most notable pre-JJBA work, the other day and within two minutes a dog was shot. 12 minutes after that a dog was slaughtered by a tiger only to come back to life and then get shot, decapitated, and set aflame.darealkooky posted:Is it hatred, or does he love dogs SO MUCH that showing someone murder them is the best way he knows to say "this dude is an rear end in a top hat"? Kars saved one, solidifying that he's utterly monstrous.

Yeah, with one exception, Araki seems to not really like dogs at all. The first season had Danny being hit in the face and burned and a cat eating a puppy in the first two episodes.

That was just to show how lazy the common English lower class is. Oh, that's an odd bundle in the incinerator. I could check out this odd item that I'm talking to my self about because it's so out of place. Naaaaaaaaaaaah, lets just light this poo poo on fire.

So why couldn't Rubber Soul just defend with Yellow Temperance in the water? I kind of missed the rationale for that, and it's been a while since I read the manga.

Rubber Soul would drown underwater pretty much. There was nothing stopping Jotaro from choking him out underwater as Yellow a Temperance can stop all of your punches, but it can't you from being unable to breathe. The second Jotaro got him into the water he was dead to rights.

Yeah and it's fights like these early on that really sort of demonstrate how Jotaro maintains that similar quick-thinking Joestar family style of fighting but he's a hell of a lot more ruthless and tends not to waste time loving around.

Jotaro had a hard time dealing with almost-drowning and needed to pull a power out of his rear end to get out of it. He probably figured there was no such thing as a Yellow Finger, at least not in this context, so might as well pay the drownings forward. RERORERO was pretty great, too.

So the Runaway Girl actually has a name now. Given how many chapters she appeared in, the fact that she was never named in the original manga was somewhat astonishing.Baron O Beefdip posted:I'll always love how Rubber Soul acts super creepy for no reason at all. I always figured he thought it was safer to let Jotaro punch "Kakyoin" and get Temperance on him that way rather than trying to attack directly.

I think the problem is that surviving a plane crash is pretty dang hard, and they were extremely lucky to survive the last one. Yellow Temperance disguised as the pilot cold easily just fly the plane full-speed into a mountain and instantly kill them all, using his stand to protect himself from (most of) the damage and the gang wouldn't really be able to see it coming if they weren't in the cockpit.

Pretty much their only choice is risk civilians getting caught in the crossfire or risk themselves being stranded and die from just being stranded in the environment (middle of the ocean, 30k feet in the air). It's a tough decision, and any other show would have emphasised Joseph's decision, but that's not what Jojos is about. Dio Must Die.

Even if they had a small plane with Joseph piloting it and nobody else on board, they would still run the risk of encountering somebody with a stand capable of flight. None of them are capable to doing anything from within a plane except possibly Kakyoin.
