Japanese copyright law is absolutely as intense as US copyright law, it's just in regards to different things. They're super vigilant about takedowns for music.

As I understand it, the key thing that allows Araki to do his thing in Japan and not in the US is that US copyright law has a clause that requires a copyright holder to pursue action if they are aware of a violation or they will lose their copyright, whereas in Japan the copyright holder is allowed to let things slip by without incident.

This helps, but the big difference is what protections exist for copyrights/trademarks/whatever the right name for this kinda thing is. In the USA you can't name one of your characters "Vanilla Ice" because that name is owned by someone else, and you are potentially harming their recognition by doing so. Otoh, you can make a comic with a depiction of IRL Vanilla Ice and that's fine. In Japan, it's the exact opposite: you can have your own character who just happens to be named Vanilla Ice, but you can't depict the real guy without his permission. So it's not so much that companies/bands are super chill in Japan, it's that Japan just cares about different things. And when the anime is brought over, as I understand it, the only thing CR is responsible for are the content of the subtitles, because that's the only part created in the USA. So that's why we can get by with the video loudly declaring "BAD COMPANY" both vocally and in writing, because all that legally matters is the subs don't use that. hoobajoo fucked around with this message at 23:33 on Jan 7, 2017 |

I think the dumbest thing I managed to miss in jojo was in SBR when I missed that towards the end, hot pants and diego died. I know it seems like a decent amount of people miss hot pants dying because it just kinda happens so fast that you don't even notice what's happening with her, but somehow I just straight up didn't notice that diego had been bisected by the train lmao, I was just like "oh he's just lying on the ground now okay" and didn't notice his lower torso in the background

I noticed that he was cut in half, but since I didn't realize Hot Pants was dead I didn't think he was done for either. As long as they got a flesh gun it doesn't matter what happens to them. Hell, even after she's dead they can still use it. Hot Pants was ultimate utility.

Just caught up to where the current translation ends for part 5. That thing really moves. Gio putting the Muda on to Cioccolata is going to rule so hard in the anime. Is it just me, or does this part have a lot of stands that are some kind of virus, or are in some way a microscopic thing that fucks up your body. Off the top of my head there's Purple Haze, B.I.G, Metallica, Green Day, and Grateful Dead.

WHAT IS GOING ON WITH HIS ABILITY AHHHHHHHHH e: I'm still not really sure of the mechanics of how it works. Multiple realities but this one is the 'true' reality because this Valentine doesn't get screwed over or swapped out by other Valentines. Then he can pick and choose parts of realities and force them together? Which is how he made both DIO and Wekapipo be the person who shot Johnny? e2: Lucy just boarded the boat, if anyone can explain how D4C works that would be great. Unless I am not supposed to know but both Johnny and DIO have explained it and I am still lost tbqh. EmmyOk fucked around with this message at 02:02 on Jan 8, 2017 |

Okay my best understanding so far of Valentine's power that still doesn't explain all the events is that he can't merge universes but he can move people. So he put a DIO and Wekapipo who both shot Johnny in the same universe and moved the copies of them to the corresponding universes which is why they didn't explode. However then I don't know how Johnny understands he was shot by both unless he also moved Johnny? Or maybe he can also merge universes. It's so unclear to me because I'm dumb

EmmyOk posted:WHAT IS GOING ON WITH HIS ABILITY AHHHHHHHHH The world that the story has followed is the main one to focus on. Okay. So D4C confirms the multiverse theory as 100% correct. It's power is to be very strong and go into other dimensions. In those dimensions, generally something's different. There's one where the SBR is about diamonds instead of Corpse parts. There is only one Jesus across all the dimensions and that's why everyone keeps coming back to that same universe. So, if Valentine is almost about to be killed, he goes into another dimension and passes D4C to another version of himself to continue his work. Which is what I thought was the explanation for how his appearance started to improve. If two things- people included- from different dimensions come into contact, they destroy each other, except for President Valentine. He's immune to that. They have to be doppelgangers though. So two DIOs, two Johnnys, two Hot Pants, etc.

Also the first 6 parts of Jojo actually took place in a side universe, since that wasn't the universe with Jesus' Corpse.

Nah, JoJo 1-6 are a series that doesn't have multiple universes while 7 and 8 are a series that does have multiple universes. I wouldn't expect alternate universes to show up again though, D4C was a pretty unique stand and I think it would be a waste to reuse it.

Part 7 has multiple parallel universes, part 6 has multiple versions of the timeline of a single universe.

Stone Ocean Wiki Page posted:The final effects of Made in Heaven are completed when time accelerates to the end of the universe, leading to a new cycle of time and a parallel universe in its place where all surviving humans have precognitive understanding of fated actions in their lives. Like, yeah they're wikis, but it seems like you are in the minority thinking that.

The pre-Made In Heaven universe got old and died, so Emporio bought a new universe where he could live with his moms and Weather Report and not Anasui in peace.

I just assumed the two powers just had nothing to do with each other. Like, there would be alternate universes pre-part 6 D4C could go through if he was there, but they aren't relevant since everything got reset anyway. By that same notion, Made in Heaven could reset the new universe too.

Spoilers ahead about made in heaven and D4C Made in heaven's power is specifically to speed things up until a statistically exact copy appears, because statistically speaking, if it has already happened, there is a tiny chance of it happening again and the speed up allows for Pucci to reach that point exponentially faster than just waiting quintillions of years for it to happen naturally. You know those thread cycles people post about on SA where it's like "such-and-such thread will eventually reach x conversation again"? It's that, except on a galactic, universal scale. Whereas D4C is specifically dipping into parallel universes that are, themselves, separate entities, branches off the central universe where everything is based, where everything is similar but not exactly the same. These parallel universes all exist at the same time as the main universe where Christ exists, though they cannot interact with one another outside of through D4C's influence, and the argument can be made that they may not even exist outside of when D4C dips into them.
