I'd pay actual money to have Josuke punished by forcing him to listen to the very beginning of the OPM OP every time he goes to make a post ONE PUUUUUUUUNCH

I'm going to get it put on your rap sheet that I like Claire "Lightning" Farron more than you, Baal. There's nothing about Joseph that his perfect in every way son doesn't do a lot better.

That's true. I think he does take a bit of time to pick up steam as a character. I just read Chapter 27 last night (Tusk Part 3 I think?) so yeah, it's not really that far off the ground yet at all. Suaimhneas posted:All you people putting Joseph low on the list just straight-up have bad opinions imo Oldseph is fun. BT Joseph is charming and enjoyable. I'd argue that Araki only begins to hit his stride as far as writing interesting and fun protagonists is concerned with Jotaro, who is extremely subtle and therefore much more enjoyable for me to read.

I also didn't read it until after the super-long Valentine fight had wrapped up, so I didn't have to deal with that drawn-out experience. (Also, yeah: I like SO less than other parts, but it's not because of the downer ending.) That's fine

Josuke = Jolyne > Joseph > Johnny > Jotaro > Jonathan Giorno is, like people said, not really counted cause he's a victim of bad translation. He did have some good parts though, like stealing a hundred cars. Also haven't started part 8, so I obviously can't rate that Jojo.

Johnny Joestar posted:johnny takes a little bit to get going but the people who say gyro is the real star of steel ball run are missing the point entirely He is the real star of SBR though. He's not the lead protagonist in the end, but he drives a poo poo load of the plot and is the best brojo and redeems the Zeppeli family. Imagine how lovely SBR would be with crappy Caesar in Gyro's place. I mean, just assume that he doesn't get killed by Diego in the first stage to make it work.

Does anybody have the cool part 3 anime video where Joseph is showing Jotaro a picture of DIO for the first time, but someone edited so it's a picture of Joseph crossdressing instead? Thank you

My JoJo ranking is 1. Jolyne all the rest of them are icky boys

Gyro is the only Zeppeli I care about. The only thing the first Zeppeli was good for was giving Speedwagon a cool hat and teaching Jonathan to punch frogs. Johnny and Jotaro are tied for #1 JoJos on my list. Everyone else is tied at #2. Jolyne would be a #1 too but Ora Is the New Black is the saddest arc

# ? Jan 22, 2016 22:34 |

I don't rank Jojos because I like them all. Jolyne's probably my "best" but that's by a tiny margin. It's me, I am Speedwagon, geeking out over all the Joestars.

Bad Seafood posted:I don't rate parts or protagonists until they've finished but thus far Gappy seems "Human" like Johnny. with the way he's been set up it's hard for him not to be 'human'. just some weird, sad kid who's cobbled together from bits of two other people he never knew and with basically no memories of a family or life to his name.

Jolyne is the best and coolest, mostly due to how drat tough she is. While being on the recieving end of gruesome injuries and other unpleasant stuff is pretty part and parcel of the Joestar life, the sheer amount of poo poo that life throws at her is just something else. And then she powers through all that without losing a single step. Jolyne's basically the goddamn Terminator.

It's really rare to see girls going through has much poo poo as Jolyne in... I was gonna say manga, but it's actually media in general. There's Ripley, kinda? Jolyne gets the poo poo beaten out of her and stands up and set herself on fire and kicks rear end. She's uber cool.

All I know for certain is Johnny and the first Josuke are tied for Best JoJos in my heart. Best Dog is Iggy.

Josuke > Johnny > Joseph > Jolyne > Jotaro > Jonathan > Giorno Nothing against Giorno, honestly he's a cool dude and he actively looks for the bizarre answers to his problems so that's cool, I just like the others more. Gappy I don't want to say yet since his story is not over obviously and also his main thing is that his life is shrouded in a mystery it makes it extra important to see it to the end to get a full feel of it, for me.

For me it's something like Joseph (young)>Josuke>Jolyne>Johnny>Jotaro>Joseph (old)>Jonathan>Giorno. Josuke is probably the most complex and realistic character, but young Joseph is the most fun.

I love all the JoJos but Joseph is my favourite, just because he is a ridiculous cartoon who leads a freakishly charmed life in family constantly beset by tragedy. Beating Kars 50% by dumb luck and 50% by bragging it was all part of his master plan and he's The Greatest Tactical Mind Who Ever Lived remains my favourite scene in all of JoJo Johnny is definitely the most interesting JoJo though, he's the first who isn't a decendent of Jonathan and thus an automatic heir to his noble spirit and courage and has to earn the namesake through adversity and self-discovery, it was a great way to reboot the series on literal and conceptual levels

I hope this arc keeps up with alternating between Okuyasu declaring some food to be the greatest thing he's ever tasted, some terrible body horror poo poo happening to him and him suddenly triumphantly being cured of an ailment.
