Why does everyone think I'm going to get in trouble?

One of my favorites is someone from Part 4 who weaponizes wordplay. Another good one is using healing powers as a tracking device.

There's a dude in Part 7 whose power is literally making balloon animals that behave like the actual animals they're based off, except instead of empty balloons he inflates metal.

He's one of the more dangerous adversaries our heroes face.

The Part 4 poster cracks me up the most but Part 5 is also a really good one.

The bluntness of the Part 6 one gets me everytime. I feel like Part 7 is more National Treasure though.

Also I wanna post this image of Araki's drawing of Naruto because the combination of this beautifully drawn face and then that Bart Simpson hair.

That's really more of a part 4 thing imo. One of the things I like so much with jojo is how each part feels like its own unique little thing, each with their own style to it.

So they're going with having Iggy actually having a voice and speaking rather than having the narrator speak what he's thinking like some suspected they might.

A dude on /a/ said it (there are a bunch of dudes in /a/'s JoJo who do actually do it for other JoJo things which is what gave it some credence), glad to hear it's not true though. Also, thank you for doing it because it's greatly appreciated. Mangahelpers is a good place to put your scripts if you want to make them public once done.

Considering that some anons on /a/ finished up the Stardust Crusaders quality scans (which is naughty of them) and they do things like One Punch Man too, it's not at all an entirely baseless claim.

He's clearly in training mode with infinite supers, but yeah, he only needed about 5 bars to 100%. Petshop isn't high-tier, he's banned-tier.

My favorite name change is that Sticky Fingers was changed to Zipper Man in All Star Battle, yet Soft & Wet stayed the same, despite that apparently Prince's laywers are prickly about name usage. I doubt they'd really care about it, but it's kinda silly.

Why does everyone think I'm going to get in trouble?

I'm more fond of how Polnareff got changed to Eiffel because Namco got really scared even though literally every other translation of Part 3 media keeps his name as is.

D4C getting changed to "Filthy Acts At A Reasonable Price" was pretty good

ChaosArgate

Why does everyone think I'm going to get in trouble?

Actually, now that I think about it, Namco got really terrified of lawsuits since they changed innocuous phrases like "Stray Cat" to "Feral Cat" or "Echoes" to "Reverb". I can understand when they get scared about names like "Killer Queen", but names like "Kiss" or "Enigma" that are pretty much just nouns is playing it a little too cautiously, I think.

One of my favorite ASB little references is if you use that slow mo punch move that Giorno did on Bruno in their fight on Jonathan, Gold Experience does the thumb in the eye during the punch that Dio did in their boxing fight in Part 1

The slow-mo punch causes a lot of references, from what I hear. Doing it on Polnareff makes him do the tongue arrow thing from the Hol Horse/Boingo fight.

He is, actually. The only other character who comes even close is Kakyoin and he requires fifteen times the execution that petshop's dumb poo poo does.

One Piece would be up your alley just because its a similar light hearted shounen, make sure to read and not watch though
