The problem with Part 5's old translation is there only being a handful of characters with personalities. Also that it's just wrong at times, but you can definitely still read it and grasp the story. I just would never recommend it, when a good one is being done.

It's wrong in the sense that it fucks up the context for details in a given part. So stuff like White Album's rant (which Kite mentioned) or the oft-posted prison conversation are fairly understandable...but you don't get the intended takeaway.

I understand Josuke is apparently a combination of Kira and Josefumi and he's with the Higa family investigating his identity. i think that's the first chapter that Stand has even shown up, so everybody is on the same page with you. i could be wrong because i'm at least one chapter behind.

yeah, Josuke's nose is really bugging me. it's one of the few points of detail on his face but it constantly looks off. hopefully later PVs give a better sense of it, since i'm otherwise incredibly hyped.

i haven't reread Stone Ocean in a while, but i would agree that FF's death had more impact than everybody else. maybe because she died on her own while the rest of the crew got owned in quick succesion right at the end.

you could do it by release order, but rather than an in-depth lp of the first game, maybe do something highly edited/condensed? or skip it

Bohemian Rhapsody had a cool effect, that's about all it needed for me. Underworld i don't remember, but Sky High is one of my favorites because it's total bullshit and Jolyne sets herself on fire to win.

i'm glad Polnareff survived, but it is hosed up that he had to watch his boyfriend die twice in addition to their dog dying. not even accounting for all the other tragic stuff that happens to him later. it's hard for me to really imagine Kakyoin living though, because they tie up his end in an emotionally powerful way. plus i'd almost expect him to show up in all the other original universe parts.

yeah, Magenta is good-looking and his worst offenses are being gross and obnoxious. There are plenty of villains who are much worse people. Like Alessi. Who has cool hair and Stand design, and a rad axe, but not much else.

Lisa Lisa gets chumped in her only real fight, which makes me reluctant to really speak of her as one of Araki's good female characters. I still like her, but drat she is completely mishandled.

i forgot that Lucy was subjected to the rape stuff, other than Valentine's wife and the hosed up baby thing (which are still bad). as for Joushuu, i honestly would not care if he melted for good because i can't imagine that gross little rapist having any sort of character comeback.

Hitlersaurus Christ posted:As much as I hate Joushuu, he thought he was going along with what Yasuho was telling him. I mean yeah it was gross and lovely and honestly made me feel kinda uncomfortable but I don't think the guy would intentionally rape someone. His character is meant to be stupid, not evil. Yasuho doesn't even like him prior to the incident, so i dunno why he should get a pass for being oblivious and self-absorbed about their relationship to the point that he does that. That's exactly a real-world problem dudes have when it comes to sexual assault.

like yeah, i don't think Joushuu is meant to be evil, and there are enough variables to the creation of the scene that i'm not trying to read anything into it yet, but the whole thing is sorta hanging over him now. if it were a dropped plot thread (it already feels like it has been a long time) that might be the best of a bad situation, but we won't know for years.

Hot Pants was robbed. i really hope this doesn't come true Josuke Higashikata posted:Age of consent is only 13 in Japan though legalities surrounding it do make it higher in some cases I think, so it may be less "forget" and more "this is less creepy to Japan because their culture don't view it as creepy as westerners do". i think it's more that the story is set in a time where age differences like that probably didn't matter. Lucy was old enough to be married, and looks older than she is, so having some 31 y/o dude crush on her isn't weird to me in that context.

Bad Seafood posted:Putting on my historian hat for a minute, the period piece argument is a bit shaky in this case. The age of consent was indeed much lower in the late 19th century, but that was also around the time you had a lot of people petitioning to raise it due to the rising public awareness of abuses perpetuated against young girls (google "The Maiden Tribute of Modern Babylon"). It'd take a few decades for those reforms to sweep across the Western world, but even as early as the 1890s (when SBR is set) you'd have people talking about it; and even among those who'd arguably be okay with it, the age difference would still be worthy of raised eyebrows. thanks for the clarification/education this is honestly the first time i had even seen people complain about Mountain Tim, but i'd agree that all the stuff with him really works towards some good emotional moments, and he is a stand-up guy despite the age difference.
