Yukako gives us one of the best Duwang-isms, and for that, she is good

Yukako has impeccable taste in men and great hair.

Yukako might be problematic, I dunno I'm not the one to properly make that argument, but I like her, the anime made her cute and her Stand loving rules. Every episode of Part 4 from now on is going to be golden and perfect

Yeah I'm not a big fan of cinderella. People talk about surface and lock as being the low points but for me it has always been cinderella. It's just kinda boring and I don't feel like there was any buildup or anything, it's just like "koichi gets forced to fall in love with yukako now" or whatever idk

lol I completely forgot about Cinderella my bad. I'm excited for Kira to walk in and murder everyone at least. Still, who among us didn't have a probable stalker in high school we dated for a while against better judgement.

I suppose Koichi decided "hey, hot girl is crazy but is hot gently caress it maybe she's more chill now".

Cinderella is a primo place to stuff some filler into so I'm thinking it'll still be fine, not that I really disliked that arc in the first place. Moltrey posted:Still, who among us didn't have a probable stalker in high school we didn't date for a while against better judgement. Even on those days when you feel alone and utterly unloved just think, just think... somewhere out there, there's a Yukako just waiting for you. My Yukako didn't have an electric chair but they did make their own wine, and that was its own sort of torture. e: I guess I should re-iterate that I enjoy FILLER though I think I've established it, so in my mind however they embellish Cinderella would probably be fun.

Yukako is just another example of how Koichi surrounds himself with terrible people.

In Ireneverse Koichi is the mayor of Morioh, I meant. He is not in Jojleon, AKA the Steel Ballniverse. Unless he is 19 and the most young mayor of all time. Koichi could probably do it, but I doubt it.

I'm late to the discussion but I like Cinderella for a lot of the same reasons I like Italian Food, we get to see a stand user who doesn't habitually mentally or physically destroy people and just wants to make a living in their own (weird) way. That said, I'm also pretty of critical of it for the same reasons I am of the upcoming Yukako episode. She's probably the closest Jojo got to having a rad woman in it at that stage (Lisa Lisa being a part of the Joseph Joestar Show: Ft. Joseph Joestar, notwithstanding), and she's so close but yet so far. She's tough, headstrong, single-mindedly determined etc, but all of her motivation is reduced to "How can I make Koichi love me!?" It's really cool when some of the later villains or whoever are like "I need to stop them from getting away or they might get help from someone like Yukako, and she'll rain hell upon me." It'd be neat if something like that actually got to happen though.

Been working my way through Steel Ball Run for a while, and now I'm nearing the end. I finished reading the Valentine fight, which was amazing. Then I started into High Voltage. Why, Araki? Just... why?

Yukako was Araki's first prototype of the Strong Female Character that he later perfected in Jolyne. Then Hot Pants happened but eh, nobody's perfect.

Hot Pants' death was the only really bad part about her, and Dio had the exact same problem where I didn't even realize they were supposed to be dead. I'd say people constantly threatening to rape Lucy Steel was worse.

Momomo posted:I'd say people constantly threatening to rape Lucy Steel was worse. Yeah. I know that araki is doing it because violence against animals and violence against women are his go-to shorthand for "this is an awful person and you absolutely need to have no sympathy for them and need to root for them to get their poo poo kicked in" but I wish that that didn't come up anywhere near as much as it does

FirstAidKite posted:Yeah. They should just replace all those lines with threats to make her docile, like a winter catfish. It helps a lot that Lucy ended up being the most hardcore motherfucker out there and is the entire reason the main bad guy didn't win, so it's not like you can sum up her entire character as just being some victim.

I don't mind the Lucy stuff as much because she ended up killing Alternate Dio in the end, and that made up for a lot. And she ends up being central to the plot both with her adventures with both Scarlet and Valentine. But Hot Pants just felt like a lot of wasted potential to me. Her backstory is kind of awkwardly inserted into the Civil War arc outta nowhere, and then she dies later in an amazingly anticlimactic way. She does get a lot of great scenes, though, and her stand is really cool. God I hope we get an SBR anime.

One of my favorite details about Lucy is her maiden name being Pendleton like Erina's was, which makes her owning Dio's rear end for good real satisfying.
