It'll be interesting to see how they do D'Arby since the OVA did it so well already.

DIO's World is definitely my most anticipated bit though, even though we have great stuff like Pet Shop and both D'Arby's upcoming. I regularly read that over and over and it's always awesome. Ahh roll on next week.

I cannot wait for D'Arby the Gambler. It's the first time that Araki wrote a battle scene where there's no violence. It's when Araki figures out what makes a battle interesting and sets the precedent for using stands to gain an advantage instead of just as punchmen to punch things.

I'm also really excited for his brother, too. The conclusion to both is so drat satisfying.

Hearing spoilers of how D'Arby the Gambler's fight went was what got me into Jojo. I can't wait to see it again.

Yeah, as good as other fights are, Dio has to take the cake. My big hope is that we get to see some of what his power looks like from a normal perspective, where everything is just going to hell in his general vicinity. Pet Shop is a cool fight, except that I kind of hate Iggy.

The only thing wrong with Iggy is that he stops looking like a dog at some point.

You mean after the first chapter he was introduced in? I wished the anime would homage that but they are going full weird mandog thing from the start.

No, there's been art of him as ugly dog. They're going with it.

Iggy's sudden man-face is one of the best things in Egypt. One panel he's a normal dog and the next his face is as pretty as the rest of the cast's.

Tingle tingle kooloo limpah.
These are my magic words.

Don't steal them.
The fact that the anime is totally going through with the sudden art-shift on Iggy is one of the best things.

I really hope it's like a completely arbitrary thing. He just changes model mid-scene. Like the camera pans around him and then all of a sudden he has a totally different design.

I actually want really obvious CGI for the Gamer fight. Just really odd looking models as Kakyoin and D'Arby play F-Zero and for when Star Platinum becoes a baseball player.

I thought he becomes less dog-like and more stylized as we first start hearing his thoughts, to show that he's become a character. It's like what Scott McCloud talked about in Understanding Comics; the more simplistic and less photorealistic a character is, the easier we can project on to them.

I think it'd be less jarring (probably even a good choice) for baseball than the race. I just really want the race to look good despite how unimportant it ultimately is.

I hope the anime makes the games look pixelated like they should considering it takes place in 1989 and they are at best playing on an original Famicom.

Unless he's some kind of dog/rat that got merged like Gappy.

The race is so stupidly tense, I love it. I guess it's to show how GOOD D'arby is since Kakyoin tries to fight him fairly and that'd be lame if he just won. Just wish Kakyoin actually got to do something in his first fight back rather than Get Owned At Video Games.

At least he figured out The World's power before he was blasted into a clock tower. RIP Kakyoin. An Honorary Zeppeli

I dunno, it was rather exemplary how Avdol got straight murdered in the first 2 seconds of the Vanilla Ice fight.

He does own Kenny G though.

He'd certainly do the family proud. The only better Zeppeli is Gyro.

Barnes and Noble has a Buy 2 Get 1 sale on a lot of Viz manga until February. A pretty good excuse to grab some volumes of Stardust Crusaders, except the last volume isn't eligible for some reason :argh:

JoJonium volume 1 is though if you want to go digital on it.

I know they ended the Zeppeli line, but Kakyoin and even Bruno might as well have the last name by virtue of being a Cool as Hell friend of a JoJo who died and made me sad.

Also I really need to start reading SBR drat.
