I like that it may be possible that the presence of Jesus Christ, Lord and Savior, is a reference to the prog rock band Yes because of how Jesus is pronounced in Japanese.

Edit: A peek into a darker timeline.

It's the rear end class thing, that guy is the author of that manga.

He's even wearing the same apron drawn in the comic.

Oh duuuh. It's funny because I even thought of that comic when I saw this. My brain is shut off today.

What's up Jojo thread

For reasons I need a near life-size Killer Queen sometime in the next 9 days.

Anyone have any suggestions? Right now I'm thinking go to the local poster printing service, print two halves and tape them together.

Seeing someone on another forum say that DiU would be better without the filler and with a straightforward plot (like Battle Tendency), and that should just skip everything and just deal with whoever the main villain is, makes my blood boil. And this poo poo happens way more often than I would think.

Seriously, are these people who watch The X-Files and skip every non-alien episode?

Okuyasu Nijimura
May 31, 2015


It's funny because X-Files, a good show, is popular more for the monster of the week episodes than it is for the big alien arc that was already sorta muddled at the end and hit all-out ridiculous in the latest incarnation.


I mean, I get why DIU is a departure and why people might not love it as a result but agree that it's frustrating when the very thing that makes it unique and even kind of refreshing compared to prior parts is the very thing people ding it for.

If you ever type Filler and Part 4 in a sentence that is not "Part 4 has no filler" or a variation of that, your computer, phone and tablet should all die and you should lose all memories of JoJo, never to experience it ever again.

I'm not even gonna accede to that degree and I'll flat out say people who think DIU should stick to the plot are dumb and bad and deserve to have their house burn down.

When I type "JoJo part 4 filler" into my phone it keeps autocorrecting to "filled with great content"

Jojo in general doesn't have filler since everyone is more interested in weirdo stands and silly situations than they are about any "plot"going on.

It's just kinda hard to adapt for some people, first three parts are centered around a clear objective and part 4, although it has the bow and arrow thing from the get-go, still takes a bit to introduce its main villlain. Even after that, it's still not a race to get to him/theMcGuffin like the other parts.

Some people just like laser-focused stories, or got burned on bad filler from watching shonen anime.

If you must blink, do it now.
Filler has become useless as a category of criticism. People argue over what it means, frequently misapply it, and typically invoke it to spread the stigma that all content which doesn't measurably and observably advance the plot in a material fashion is "Bad."

If you think the only episodes of Cowboy Bebop that matter are the ones where Spike faces off against Vicious, you don't understand Cowboy Bebop.

The Watch thing is in Sheer Heart Attack. Google for photos of his SAS figure/Other toys, might be the best way of shoe shots.

I think Cowboy Bebop could have done with one or two more Vicious or Julia episodes. As it is the finale fell a bit flat to me, felt more like an afterthought.

I get what they were going for where Spike going after them was sort of stupid and pointless but they made it out that it was going to be a big deal and a problem for them that Vicious was taking over the Syndicate so it was sending mixed messages.

Speaking of Killer Queen and costumes, here's a weird question: do you think Killer Queen has fur, or is just smooth pink skin?

To make this question sound slightly less like a sex thing, I'm making a Killer Queen backpack (like those teddy bear backpacks from the 90's) to go with a JoJolion Kira costume, and I can't decide whether to use furry fabric or not.

Also, KingofSprings, it would be great if you printed limbs separately and jointed them together with brads like those Halloween skeleton decorations.

It gives the strong impression of having a metallic finish based on how the highlights are drawn.

Killer Queen has fur naturally, but it waxes.

going off the anime thread, both Jolyne and Johnny would and have straight up murked a dude in cold blood and I love em.

Remember when Jolyne strangles her lawyer with her string as he's driving away from the prison causing him to crash his car and die all the while she remains in prison?

Remember when Johnny shot Soundman through the heart by shooting a butterfly first?
