Honestly a way to cure him might be if they had Alessi de-age him back 11 years.

I need to reread Jojolion when it's all done. Can someone please remind me what happened in recent issues which made the things Karera said or did about 1 year ago impossible? Did they recently mention they never actually knew Karera or something?

Tonio's spaghetti alla puttanesca doesn't have any capers in it. Trash. I grew up having caprese salad etc. fairly often, and I found the story explaining the concept of mozzarella cheese to Japanese viewers, who at least in the early 90s might not have known much about it. Now I need to hear Pizza Mozzarella sung on the show. Only about ~5 years for that? Liquid Dinosaur fucked around with this message at 09:16 on Jun 4, 2016 |

If Survivor got stabbed by the arrow, or perhaps if it somehow reached Heaven like C-Moon or The World, would it just have the same effect but have infinite range and be called Worldstar?

Every time I close my eyes on Thursday, I wake up on Friday feeling so horny for more JoJo. (Hey should I catch up to Jojolion? I stopped reading around where the guy who lives out of a broken ski lift teaches them how to make tiramisu in such intricate detail that anyone reading is fully equipped to make it themselves. It was good, I just felt like I’d wait a while to read it in a big chunk. From all the redacted text in seeing, I take it I should totally catch up?)

How the hell is everyone talking about Underworld and leaving out how the user’s backstory is literally just “he’s Stanley Yelnats from Holes.” That’s what I look forward to seeing in the anime thread in several years. And then we can all swoop up in and remind them this was written before the movie came out so Araki has to have just been reading American young adult literature.

I love the characters and fights of part 6 so much. I love everything about part 6 except the actual main plot. The Green Dio-homunculus and the random magic words that Dio and Enya apparently knew about all along just don’t gel with me. And I’m sorry, I but I can’t accept that Dio’s master plan is to Scratch the universe to create a new iteration that’s basically the same, except now nobody experiences those weird bouts of ennui?

goth smoking cloves posted:Part 9 should be a retelling of the new testament starring Jesus and the Apostle John Joestar You don't even need it to be an apostle. 1st century Jews had patronymic names, and "Jesus" is just "Yeshua" (Joshua) but subject to linguistic drift and transliterated between Greek and Latin etc. Jesus' actual name would have probably "Joshua ben-Josef," or "Joshua, son of Joseph." I'm positive if someone explained this to Araki he'd be like, "cool, alright. Jesus is a Jojo now." Liquid Dinosaur fucked around with this message at 18:03 on Oct 26, 2018 |

What nationality were the bad Part 5 translators? Chinese? I know they were working from Chinese raws. And for that matter what about the Duwang guy? Also Chinese? And "not Duwang" isn't praise when Duwang is better in spite of the bad grammar and ugly typesetting. You can actually get a feel for the characters in Duwang. I only read the bad part 5, and this anime is only now showing me why Japanese people GioGio, whom I previously considered to be a emotionless wooden board.

I loved how in part 3 Hanged Man attacks Polnareff from a mirror, and Kakyoin needs to explain to him how there isn't some magical backwards-world inside of a mirror, and it's just a shiny surface that reflects light, so clearly Hanged Man is made of photons. But then in Part 5 Araki decides, gently caress it , I want to make a stand that transports you to the magical mirror dimension.

What happens to Polnareff at the end of this arc? He's dead, right? People keep saying "he's a turtle," but I thought that everyone's back in their own body, so Coco Jambo is too. So is he just persisting as a ghost inside of the Mr. President room?

I like how Jotaro got hosed by the Rats as a direct consequence of his character. An enemy stand shoots Josuke with a weird organic-looking bullet, he goes “ew gross” and deflects it with a frying pan. An enemy stand shoots scholarly, thoughtful biology student Jotaro with a weird organic-looking bullet, he stops time to dodge it, but then is intrigued by it and decides to just briefly examine it and whoops it’s a horrible dissolving poison that works instantaneously. I guess Star Platinum should have put on latex gloves to avoid contaminating the specimens, and being contaminated in turn.

It just occurred to me, if Avdol is a fortune teller, but his stand is just a dumb Blaziken chicken that shoots ankh-shaped fire, is he just a huckster who has no actual oracular power? He just happens to hang out with an actual fortune teller who only uses his power to take lewd pictures of his grandfather’s bod.

When Enya met a standless Dio and sensed his great destiny, or was overcome with fear and awe at his sexiness and「 G R A V I T Y」or however she described it in that one scene, how did she convince him to let her shoot him with an arrow, because it would give him superpowers, for realsies scout's honor, but no she has no way of knowing what the superpower is.

Dio wouldn't have been able to see Justice. I guess she'd need to make some zombies, and then he'd ask why she's also able to make zombies despite not being a vamp. Without some demonstration of stand power, he isn't just going to let some weird Pakistani lady with hosed up hands shoot him.

Ticket to Ride/Love Train is basically the opposite of “taking on the sins of the world,” which I guess Joshua Josephson did with his stand before he faked his death and went to chill with the Native Americans like the Mormons say.

I think it’s more jarring that the guy Giorno saved doesn’t come up again, since Giorno wants to enter his line of work and you’d think he’d want to ask that dude for a recommendation letter or something. Maybe Giorno would have done that, but then he started hustling at the airport, and (basically) killed Luca, setting off the chain of events that led to him joining the mob. Maybe the nameless guy wasn’t part of Passione. I forget the exact timeline but maybe Diavolo didn’t control as much action when Giorno was that young, and there was still room for normal-rear end gangsters with no superpowers and conservative clothing.

BaDandy posted:All of DIO's kids are pretty overpowered, but my personal favorites of Part 6 are "Jolyne Gets Run Over by the Miami Dolphins" and "Where the gently caress is Mickey". The best part is how one of Dio's son's backstories is literally just "He's Stanley Yelnats from Holes." And IIRC, this was written BEFORE the Shia LaBeouf movie, so Araki was just casually reading some American young-adult literature and decided to lift a plot element from it. somepartsareme posted:my worldview changed forever when i realized that while annasui is freaking out about mickey, he's reading a guidebook for universal studios, not disney So, what you're saying is, Annasui should be saying "where the gently caress is Shrek!?" Zerilan posted:Also in part 6 it felt kind of weird seeing DIO in flashback form just because of how much the way characters are built kinda changed between part 3's huge musclemen to the more "muscular but lithe" body types in later parts. But there are some new-style drawings of old characters that I'm really not a fan of, and I just wish Araki would refrain from drawing now that he's evolved past his 80s brick-shithouse style: What happened to Star Platinum's gains? If anyone really should be drawn inhumanly huge like they came straight out of a Tom of Finland sketch, it should be Pillar Men. Jonathan's fine, but here he kind of reminds me of that skinny kid who wears ill-fitting suits and reviews fast food..
