I've never read Jojo but everything I see makes me think it's basically what would happen if Queen was an anime that wasn't Cromartie.

If Freddie was alive today, I'm pretty goddamn sure he'd endorse JoJo. It's the gayest goddamn manga/anime without being explicitly gay. It also has so many music references it'd make your head spin.

He wouldn't endorse Jojo, he'd be in it. He'd write songs about it. He would even somehow create his own Stand.

If you didn't make it to/through battle tendency then IMO give it another shot, maybe watch the anime since season 1 covers phantom blood & battle tendency and that's available in its entirety up on crunchyroll for free

I'm beginning to think that jojo fans are almost as bad as bronies, in the sense that they have to insert it into literally everything. Their only saving grace is that the target audience is slightly older.

Look Gitmo, if you're going to say anyone is the modern Queen it should be Queens of the Stone Age. Josh Homme is a beautiful man in a modern sense.

I say this mainly because my Stand is Fun Machine.

I'd argue that the actual content they get so rabid about is better too, but the fans of the series turned me off of it for a long loving while and even after seeing and enjoying it I don't think I'd ever refer to myself as a fan.

Everyone is gay for JoJo. They could be a person from another planet, which has seriously been a thing that happened in the series.

As an objective, outside observer I find that there are more similarities between the two than a fan is likely to notice, or admit.

Yes, because fandoms rarely, if ever, produce crossover fanart. gently caress off.

Yeah. It's more accurate to compare them to firefly fans, in that they are just as obnoxious, but there's less of a creepy undercurrent of horsefucking to it

I have no intention of watching Jojo's but I still don't mind seeing fanart from it because its mostly funny and well drawn. I feel like I've said this before though so I guess I better post something as well. Imgur roulette go!



Okay then.

EDIT: Oh speaking of bronies being terrible.

They're publishing the Jojo manga in English. I found volume 1 in a bookstore, and it's really nice. Hardback, good quality, classy portrait of Jojo on front cover and Dio on back. There's like ten billion volumes they haven't published yet and this'll probably end up taking up an entire bookshelf once it's all out in a hundred years or so, but gently caress it, I read it, I'm committed.

To anyone still uncertain about the Jojos everyone here talks about/posts, I have only this to say:

They were right about it.

It'd be a stretch to call it fanart, but someone put this up on twitter not long ago:



And then one inspired soul decided that monochrome Teletubbies goes great with Joy Division.
