Rohan Kishibe is the best character and deserves a spin-off series. Fortunately, he already has one.

I like how Part IV starts Josuke off fighting against two Stands with powers that belonged to end-game enemies in Part III.Iserlohn posted:There isn't really a fight I can think of at the top of my head that was outright just lucking out besides I don't know what to tell you if you don't think that was one of the cleverest moments in JJBA.

On the topic of Alessi, he's probably the only one of the Egyptian God Stand Users that they could've gotten the secret of The World's power from considering that they were able to render him unconscious even as kids. Then again, I wouldn't want to look into that guy's mind either.

Silver2195 posted:I don't think he knew what The World did. I think the only people who knew were Enya, Vanilla Ice, Daniel D'arby, and maybe Terence D'arby. (Nukesaku would have had a clue because he was present for the testing with the bullets, at least in the anime, but he wasn't smart enough to actually figure it out.) N'Doul did too. I was under the impression that everyone in Egypt (aside from Hol Horse) knew what Dio's Stand did.

I wonder if Kenny G. would've been formidable were it not for the fact that Avdol and Iggy ended up having the exact abilities that hard countered him.

That actually would cover the weak spot of both of their Stands, provided they were in an air conditioned hiding spot big enough for two.

Looking at the name changes for Part IV's Stands makes me sad. And jeez, you guys weren't kidding about the Part V ones getting butchered. The main character's sounds decent enough, though.

The Sun was a funny episode, but yeah, they could've given it the same treatment as Tower of Gray where the fight was over halfway through the episode and I wouldn't have minded.

I like how Avdol just wants to kill Dio because he's not comfortable with the fact he's attracted to him.

Ytlaya posted:DIO strikes me as the sort of villain who would actually become super depressed if he managed to finally kill off his arch-nemesis (or in this case his arch-nemesis's bloodline). He actually did kill Jonathan, though. If anything, taking his body seemed to improve his own self-esteem.

I'm sad there's never a moment where Jotaro stops time, beats the poo poo out of someone, and then time resumes with them resuming the poo poo beating out of. Like, Steely Dan but with a beatdown before the beatdown.

golden bubble posted:Just like the reason DIO was half-naked for most of SC is "because he wants to show off his body." You mean Jonathan's body. :shh: I remember someone posting this lengthy character analysis a while back pointing out that when Dio was in his own body, he seemed pretty full of self-loathing about how he was like his father. And then he gets in Jonathan's and it's orgies and bloodsucking amidst philosophy discussion every week.

I don't think anyone has asked or explained yet, but I think the first kanji in Higashikata can also be read as "Jo", which is why Araki chose that as Josuke's last name. So he's still JoJo.

Aqua Necklace is basically Geb with slightly different powers, so it's interesting to see Josuke get thrown up against a Stand that gave the entirety of the Part 3 cast so much trouble.

I think the most interesting thing about Crazy Diamond is that it restores things rather than heal them. Josuke was able to shape that guy's nose differently after all. I wonder if Josuke has a desire to be a doctor or something, since he seems to know how to manipulate the human body pretty well.

I can't help but note that Part 4 picks up with Josuke failing to save his grandpa from a Stand while Part 3 ended with the opposite.

Part 5 has practically no bearing on Part 6 at all, but it still has a lot of great Stands and Stand battles. That said, it also probably has the most boring main villain in the series, even if his power is a meme like Za Warudo.
