David Productions will shut down unexpectedly during the break and more Jojo's will never be animated again.

In that case people can just watch the first 90's OVA to finish off the story. :v:

I think the break is three months, right?

I'm actually pretty worried this might happen when/if they animate Part IV considering it's apparently not all that popular in Japan.

Even though it only has, like, four of the many fights from Egypt animated.

HxH I guess? But you should totally watch Level E because that show owns and David Production owns.

Anime is bad, except for Jojo and Space Dandy.

Gatchaman Crowds is colorful and pretty stylish, if not to the level of Battle Tendency. It's also just really good in general. If you watch it, make sure you also watch episode 13/episode 12 director's cut, which is a combination of episode 12 (the last in the tv run) and new footage.

Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo is stylish on the level of Battle Tendency and is also really good.

I don't think it's that huge, it's mostly an anime and Japanese video game thing.

I dunno, there's a comic where The Incredible Hulk wears a costume that is basically the exact same as DIO's stand as an homage.

They're alright like 10k/vol I think. Oricon and poo poo doesn't even count imports anymore so they might be better than actually reported.

Sustain yourself off of the rich and thick narrative of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.

For real though, Volume 8 is where you want to start.

Such a shame. They didn't use Midler's appearance that Araki made for the game, after all.

Aww nuts. That would be one of those retcons where nothing is really lost from including. Like giving Jonathan and Joseph the birthmark in season 1 when Araki didn't make that a thing till Stardust Crusaders.

Capcom is REALLY BAD at working out agreeable deals with their character designers, much less actually having a stake in the characters. Doubt there'd be a copyright issue.

They used Heritage stuff in ASB no problem, I guess Araki or David didn't give a poo poo about ticking that particular checkbox.

Seeing her as a person kind of ruins the fight's ultimate joke though. It would make more sense to show her in a lineup of people they beat before the final fight. If it's done at all.
