Here is my gangbusters idea to make Araki billions


Cancel the dub
Sell release day translations of JoJolion from £1 to £2.50 from the 19th at 0000 JST.
Cancel the part 1 and 2 dubs retroactively
Sell all the Manga in English
Cancel ASB retroactively
Add another DIO to EoH
Cancel that too.

Here's my ideas, ready?

Kill Aurain
Release Grateful Dead shirt to Americans
Release Johnny Hoodie to me and only me
Keep doing what ur doing

Polnareff's voice will be the one that makes or breaks the Part 3 dub for me.

Everyone else more or less has a certain temperament they largely stick to, but Polnareff's all over the place. Whoever they pick, they'll want someone with range and versatility.

I hope the casting director lets him make use of his abilities, then.

A bad director can get a bad performance out of an otherwise good actor.

Viz will be simulcasting part 4 and streaming the previous three parts, so I guess Jojo's gonna be on Hulu now.

The ADR Directors for Bang-Zoom are really good and did a stellar job with a lot of the characters in JoJo. They seem p self aware and know what this series is so they seem to be rolling pretty well with it.

i wonder if that's better or worse, since i use both Hulu and CR for tons of stuff but CR is the only thing i knew of where they compensate in line with what you watch.

Viz's stuff isn't usually pay-locked. I know OPM wasn't. There's just commercials, which, whatever.

Edit: Oh poo poo, manga thread brought up that this might mean a better chance of Jojo on Toonami, since the problem was that WB was asking too much and Viz has a much better relationship with them.

Yeah--what is this Hulu thing going to mean for those of us who are outside the US but want to watch the show through legal channels?

e: at least this makes me even more hopeful that we'll get an English release of the Part 4 manga.

OPM was also on Daisuki, if that's available where you live

Yeah, I watched it on Daisuki most of the time. But I have no idea if that's available elsewhere? I sure hope so. This move seems like it's for the better in a lot of ways but not if it means folks outside the US don't get to see things as easily!

I'll re-up my Hulu in a bit if it turns out that it's there, though honestly I could probably just chromecast to a TV since I did that with OPM on Daisuki. I just like watching a lot of stuff on my phone/tablet when I'm on mass transit since my commute is pretty lengthy.

And yeah, one of the reasons I'm happy about this is that I feel like it gets us closer to a pt 4 translation.

streaming as a whole is still pretty lovely because Funimation will grab like half the shows in a given season and they don't show up legally outside the US because of that :shrug:

Actually, they did expand their streaming services into the UK earlier this year. Not much, but it's something.

Fingers crossed!

I had honestly begun to wonder why Crunchyroll was not saying a word about anything on it of late. No matter; if it ends up being tough to watch Jojo on my commute, I still have something like another 200 Gintama episodes to re-watch because holy mother of god is that show long

There's also the fact that Funimation will sometimes take its sweet time to upload new episodes even when the series in question is obviously a hot property.

I like and respect Funimation as a licenser and purveyor of material goods, but their streaming gig needs serious work.

they could stand to be more transparent about the whole thing, at least. like their delay on Dagashi Kashi was due to the broadcaster but they never issued a statement to that effect. i'm not sure if they post airdates for everything either.

So, here's one musician who knows about his band being referenced in Jojo:

Wonder what Robert Fripp's reaction was, considering that the internet has turned the name King Crimson into a weird meme.

Isn't Robert Fripp super strict with his copyright stuff?
Not quite Prince tier but who is.

Apes-Ma

Your cage isn't getting any bigger.
Yep. That's why KC is on no streaming services, and the songs keeps appearing and dissappearing from youtube. He actually started his own label and bought up the rights to all of the albums, so he wouldn't be hosed over in the future by greedy labels and lovely producers.

It's way more understandable than Prince, who seems to be on a personal crusade against technology, but I am sure we won't see any King Crimson songs gracing Jojo soon, ornery englishman that Fripp is.

Josuke Higashikata
Mar 7, 2013


Right on.

I respect Fripp so I don't want him to sue Araki for making money with his band name and being subjected to Araki's stand 「THE TRUE MAN’S WORLD」with the power of all stands, past or future, with the gift of eternal good looks and cuteness.


(The downfall of his stand is that it makes him climb trees despite knowing better)
