Then when you're just getting a handle on what Gold Experience does, bam, Gold Experience Requiem, probably the most complex stand in JoJo's.

Something just occured to me. Gold Experience Requiem is immune to basically anything, right? Cuz it can reset any state back to 0. Wouldn't that mean GER (and Giorno by extention) survived Made In Heaven's timeskip?

FirstAidKite posted:Watch whichever you enjoy more, but my argument for the sub over the dub is that when watching dubbed, you don't get that cool feeling when characters start shouting random bits of english, while in japanese you'll end up with all kinds of sudden outbursts of english and it's a joy and it stands out in a good way. Plus the dub VAs aren't nearly as hammy as the Japanese VAs. When you KONO DIO DA, you need to really go for it.

Calling it now: Ozone Baby will kill Tsurugi and Jobin will flip to being an ally. Only problem then is: Who's the main villain? Cuz it looked like it was setting up Jobin.

Drink Top posted:I think Kaato/Joubin can still be major enemies without being aligned with the Rock Humans anymore. Also I love that Joubin isn't really that different from Joshu in the sense that they're both petulant rear end in a top hat man-children. Jobin constantly bringing up "summer vacation forever" is basically a signal of "he might be the eldest but he's still a complete manchild mentally"

The last fight involved an eccentric man who lives in a place where you wouldn't normally live. The fight before that involved Josuke being pursued by a powerful stand while Hirose tries to figure out the location of the user. This fight begins with the enemy stand doing something bad to a Higashikata in their own home. Super Fly, Highway Star, Ozone Baby is Enigma, JoJolion is a retelling of DiU, I have solved it, everyone. (Nah just kidding, but cool coincidence, huh?)

You know, re-reading part 5 makes me wonder how they're going to handle Doppio/Diavolo in the anime. Seems like they've got two options: Different VAs for Doppio and Diavolo or same voice actor for both, just doing a different voice.

I have still yet to reread 5 with the good translation though, so I will admit I haven't given the part its fair try. Please read the new translation. Pt5 went from my bottom three to probably my second favourite part just behind DiU.

Using bleach and heat to cure the bends with pure oxygen mid-fight has to be the best "overly complex tactic thought up entirely on the spot" in JoJo's history.

EmmyOk posted:JoJolion is good but it feels like so much was set up early on that I've forgotten about and it's never been mentioned since. Yeah, a lot of it feels like once I read it from start to finish uninterrupted, there's gonna be a lot of questions unanswered. As for that symbol, the only time I remember it being a thing was to indicate which book Josuke should read for info on the Higashikatas.

Silver2195 posted:The part that's unclear to me is the extent to which Diavolo interacts with things during the skipped time. Is he intangible during the skipped time? Diavolo can't interact with anything during the erased time, because if he did, the interaction would be erased. So instead he just uses it to protect himself by erasing any harm done to him, and by repositioning himself to win instantly after the erased time (like the fight with Bruno, where he wins with a single strike).

Dragonwagon posted:His stand's creations stopped reflecting damage because it was already half requiem. Makes sense. This is my favourite example of Araki just obviously forgetting a detail. Because the damage reflection happens literally once, in the first fight of the entire part, then never mentioned again.

It's weird, Jolyne gets a bunch of outfits, when she's reasonably the JoJo with the least reasoning to be able to change her clothes. Hell, we're already 70-odd chapters deep on Pt8 and Gappy's still running around in stolen fetishwear.

Agreed on Doppio's telephone shenanigans being the best running gag. Also King Crimson vs Metallica will be amazing just for that moment where Doppio's eyes roll back and reveal Diavolo's hosed up broken pupils. Really excited to see a bunch of the minor villain fights too. Like Narancia escalating the poo poo of a situation fighting Formaggio.

My top 5 is: 1. Bites the Dust 2. Metallica vs King Crimson 3. White Album 4. Mandom 5. Horus Horus is hugely underrated, I find. Such a tense battle and I completely bought Iggy being dead at the end of it. Honourable mention to Jotaro and Iggy vs N'Doul, just because in animation, Iggy getting fastballed at N'Doul is the funniest loving thing in the world to me.
