BT yes, volume one's been translated and up for sale digitally for 4 months now with no volume 2 in sight yet, but that probably won't impact the physical releases. SC probably won't get Jojonium releases overseas since you can still buy the separate volume releases of that.

Moltrey posted:This one is sorta explained by Josuke and just about everyone in Morioh being really nice people. Josuke's whole thing is that he has a kind heart that's reflected in Crazy Diamond's appearance and ability. Rather than be like his nephew who murders anyone who deserves it, Josuke forgives people who show almost any amount of humanity and they become Cool Pals and the kindness Josuke showed them gets passed on, creating the Golden Spirit we hear about Morioh. People that are terrible pieces of poo poo get turned into rocks for dogs to poo poo next to or books in the depths of a library. I haven't gotten to Enigma on my reread, so I can't remember what the Enigma guy did that was bad enough to deserve getting turned into a book.

It's a really nice denouement to a story about self actualisation. Johnny gets the one thing he longed for above all else, but has changed so much that it doesn't really matter anymore.

I really shouldn't be so surprised Viz is being extremely quiet about the digital releases since the digital versions of PB 2 and 3 and BT 1 came out with absolutely no fanfare.

Attack his mom, just like the first guy he eternally punished. I kinda like that the last villain they fight before Kira gets more or less the same fate as the first one. Bookends it rather nicely.

 Jolyne's great. Her father's daughter if there ever was one.

Jolyne is great because she has the power to make string and gets into a fight with a roided up prison guard who can summon meteors and she decides to go full on brawler on him. Sure she wins by Jojo smarts but for the most part she's just slugging it out with a man twice her size who's putting her in judo holds to hit her with space rocks. Stone Ocean has some goddamn fantastic fights. Even the kind of meh Feng Shui guy is redeemed by being defeated by having his legs turned into springs.

I'm up to the 'Survivor' part of Part 6 and am still really enjoying it. Jolyne really wants to get her hands on dio's bone, but white snake wants it all to himself.

I was reading Steel Ball Run over a long period of time. Then I got to the page where Lucy faces down a room full of balloon doggies and had to read the rest of it in one sitting.

I had to reread Planet Waves to remind myself of how brutal it is and it starts with a guard punching another guard in the face so hard the bones pop out of one's fist and the other's cheek gets torn open. It's so brutal it opens with that.

The only Jojo figure I have is the Statue Legend of Shadow Dio, but it's okay to only have that one figure because it's painfully fabulous. Just look how low his pants are!

Figures are a huge money sink cause I want them all and that's just a terrible idea, but I caved and bought a Statue Legend Crazy Diamond figure and it's amazing.
