America's $1 Funnyman

Speaking of Miike, Zebraman is a pretty entertaining superhero movie he made. Been meaning to watch Zebraman 2 which moves it to a dystopian future for some hilarious/awesome reason.

Didn't I kill him with a HELICOPTER?
For some dumb reason I had convinced myself that I Am An Alien was only the dude's introduction and that Cheap Trick was the burn Rohan's house arc (no idea why i forgot about the back stuff being that, just somehow i kept thinking that burning rohan's house was literally the last thing before the final stretch) and i am so loving ready for tomorrow. :allears:

most of the backend of part 4 is Rohan deservedly getting his day ruined :kimchi:

there's RPS kid (harassed by a 6th grader), I Am An Alien (house burned down, swindled by the guy he hates the most), Highway Star (life saved by the guy he hates the most), Cheap Trick (just, all of it), and Bites the Dust (dies horribly multiple times due to time loops)

Damn it, why it does need to remain only four bullets!?
King Crimson vs. Metallica Parts 1-4 just went up on Batoto. Enjoy.

On a somewhat unrelated note, going through this chapter made me realize that whether or not King Crimson is physically the strongest stand out there, it's probably the stand that flaunts its strength the most. I mean, DIO punches through Kakyoin's stomach, and when he throws a knife, the entire blade gets embedded into Joseph's throat. On the other hand, King Crimson not only punches through Buccellati's chest, it also chops like 3 feet vertically through his shoulder, and now, in this set of chapters, it throws a pair of scissors with so much force that it makes a clean cut through Risotto's foot, bone and all. It's kind of insane.

After a while you wonder why Diavolo bothered with the timeskip bullshit and didn't just punch everyone's head off from the get go.

Also, fun Jojo fact: Metallica's stand cry, "loooooaad", comes from the Metallica album Load. If you were wondering why Metallica is on the loading screen in All Star Battle, there's your answer.

I just noticed that Nero used Dio's knife trick to gently caress Doppio up.

Also finally registered that Narancia ruins everything.

Honestly, Diavolo & King Crimson are both criminally underrated

I think KC vs. Metallica has a place in my heart just for its excessive violence. Doppio starts barfing razors and he treats this as a minor inconvenience.

Grateful Dead, White Album, and Metallica are in my top five OVERALL JoJo fights. That's how good they are.

I'm so happy right now. My favorite fights are all retranslated. Thank you so much, Dan, this made my week.

one of the big things about why this fight is so great is because it's the main antagonist fighting against a third party and to some weird degree you're never really sure who to root for. in a way doppio is pretty charming so he makes for a good focal point of the fight, and it's interesting how diavolo is kind of handicapping himself in the interest of secrecy while fighting a dude who can make him spit up razors.

The closest we really get to this is like Kira vs Stray Cat. It's not really the same, but sing the villain have to fight a Stand User of the week and not be in a fight that's against the main cast is v. cool

Seems masterful compared to their last few though. It's no Puppets, but it'll do. I also love the wide variety of stuff Araki chooses (Vanilla Ice, Speedwagon, etc)

The new single on their upcoming album is atrocious, Death Magnetic was pretty okay. They're past it, when all's said and done.

Good ep, a little QUALITY, but not massively. Glad they didn't rush out this arc

Ends shortly before the finger being cut off.

I'm guessing Part A next week ends the die and we might end the ep shortly before the motorbike punch.

I really wanted to see Rohan cut off his finger and burn his house down but it makes sense since Highway Star is eight chapters and like, just long enough where it can't be a one parter, but not enough for a full two parter without padding so next week is gonna rule.

Sounds like they added some Life With The Kawajiri filler?

No, it's the bit where Kira gets the horn and thinks about strangling Shinobu and she's gagging for some Kira sexy time. She's perfect, I love her.
