Did any of you pre order the blu ray set and if so is it actually showing as shipping for you yet? Several friends and I have "arriving today at 8pm" as the message from amazon yet there's no indication it actually shipped yet.

one of the youtubers that posts jojo clips like jotaro vs kira is hungry for subscribers so he's editing the title of his clips to anime spoilers till he gets 1k subscribers.

example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbmmH7F4rok

he plans on changing the title every week till he gets what he wants

yeah actually they will

I haven't read the book yet but it's a rote and predictable structure that stops people from taking risks or following a natural narrative flow.

Has anyone here read the book, or are we all just trying to divine Araki's meaning from a linegraph?

Why does everyone think I'm going to get in trouble?

I've read it twice a month ago. I don't remember exactly what he said off the top of my head, but he's not a fan of that kind of structure because you basically just end up where you started and he likes meaningful growth in his stories. That section had a few illustrations of story curves he thinks work and why and I think the only exception to his stance on positive story curves being the gold standard are for zombie stories.

IIRC, part of that might stem from fan mail he got during serialization of Phantom Blood, where readers weren't super thrilled with Jonathan being Dio's punching bag until he grew a spine.

It's not a ghost, but probably a 'living corpse'. The 'living dead' with a hell of a lot of bloodlust...
That they didn't keep the Japanese cover art is bullshit.

It really doesn't fit with the contents of the book tbh and it's also probably a brand synergy thing too. I probably wouldn't have noticed it on the shelves if not for the fact that it looks like a Jojonium.

Yeah, they're going for the Jojonium look for the season 1 BD and I'd assume they'd whip up some brand new Jojonium-style covers for when Part 4 comes around. I kinda like it for Manga in Theory and Practice. It makes it look like a book you'd use in a college course.

it's a fine design, it's just kinda bad at catching your eye. the JPN cover is rohan and araki hugging intimately which is way better

Huh, I didn't even know the BD was going for that look too. It's a real classy look and I'm kinda happy that this is what Jojo looks like.

I'm a spoiled brat but I'll forever be annoyed by the fact that Viz kinda screwed with the jojonium style in a way I'm not a big fan of, but I guess it's a tossup. JP edition is paperback with nicer-feeling pages and a slipcover. Viz edition is a hardcover with their regular pages. I own a couple of the JP ones and I'll probably keep them even after the US versions of those are released.

By the way, someone on JJCA asked Viz directly about the blu-ray release and there was a manufacturing error, which is why they were delayed. Annoying that only on release day did the window change but whatever.

60 second Rohan OVA PV airs on Tokyo MX soon.
