serebralassazin posted:I binged on the first season as it hit crunchy roll and then caught up with current season. Good god this poo poo is gold. For some reason almost lost my poo poo at I KNOW THAT FLY. The ending song was just a brilliant song as well. I'm missing the characters named after bands though. Given that Avdol is almost certainly named after Saudi singer Mohammed Abdu, I don't quite think they're done with the music naming yet.

GorfZaplen posted:Joseph should sell the pictures he's taken of DIO to modeling agencies or something. Why? Joseph's filthy rich as a real estate agent in New York, and he has the full support of the Speedwagon Foundation behind him, too. Edit: Or something to do with real estate, I can't remember.

ZenMasterBullshit posted:Can we all agree that if Dio had resurrected 40 years earlier Joseph would have already murdered him? Joseph at the top of his Hamon game is basically the best JoJo. I think that was the point of Straizo, really, who had Dio's powerset (and the ripple on top of it I guess though it killed him to use it)

Jellymouth posted:A few of the comparisons are kind of loose, to be fair. A lot of the stands are clearly based on horror tropes, but not necessarily specific franchises. I wouldn't go as far to say that Yellow Temperance and Justice are based directly off of The Thing/The Blob and Night of the Living Dead. There are very likely some stands that Araki cribbed from a movie he probably watched around the point he was doing those chapters. Even in part 3 it would be interesting to see how the dates of release of some movies line up with their respective stand. TheKingofSprings fucked around with this message at 21:08 on Feb 9, 2015 |

LORD OF BUTT posted:Araki isn't exactly a litigious person, is he? I get the feeling his reaction would just be "oh, nice, I inspired another mega-popular thing! " more than anything. The idea of Araki suing someone over infringement is actually hilarious, considering some of the things he does. We've seen Christine the Killer Car in all but name at this point I doubt he's the type to do it but holy poo poo is that a genie he would want to keep in the bottle

How Rude posted:Despite Iggy being as awesome as he was in the Pet Shop episode, he does not top young Joseph from part 2. Young Joseph is among the best main characters and has a very solid claim to being the single best of all of them. That's at least in part because of the shift Araki had in his writing, where the protagonist didn't have to carry the whole thing and it becomes a ensemble piece. People not named JoJo actually get to win fights, and they can get more spotlight on them. I would imagine in this part if the thread were polled the favorite crusader would probably be Polnareff and not Jotaro. TheKingofSprings fucked around with this message at 03:02 on Apr 21, 2015 |

Soulcleaver posted:I would've sacrificed an arm just to end the fight immediately. Jotaro ain't got time to bleed and Star Platinum would still have both arms, so gently caress it, they're almost at the final boss. The stakes here are lower than the first D'Arby holding two Crusaders hostage. Star Platinum's arm would also be useless. They still have more stand users to get through, and then there's DIO at the end of it.

Frieza/Vegeta want to wish for immortality, but that doesn't mean that they can't be blown into tiny chunks but have their body survive that (in the sense that all of the cells and such are still alive). They'd be better off wishing to be indestructible. If that's your standard of immortality then Frieza was immortal Trunks only actually killed him when he disintegrated him with a KI blast

I thought it was the ability to rewind time for a certain person/object but that doesn't allow for what he did to nukesaka.

A normal person wouldn't be able to move or do anything without being attacked from every direction simultaneously, and at the very least when they used whatever their trick was to defend themselves Kakyoin could figure it out. Even here it spelled out just what his stand can do.
