Mark Addy should be Jonathan in the dub. It's really not a contest.

Seventh Stand User is actually the best Jojo game. It's an RPGMaker fangame that asks the question "What if YOU were a Stardust Crusader?" Featuring 18 different Stands with different playstyles and 19 endings, it's got a lot of content. It's got references to future parts in it, but anything that's not a contextless cameo is optional and out of the way to see.

Doesn't this game actually have, or will have soon, full scenarios written as if there are future characters as part of the story? I know that Part 4's JoJo is getting a scenario, at least.

Just finished up the Wham fight in a rewatch myself.

What you meant is Jonathan should have been Brian Blessed.

DIO should also be Brian Blessed.
As should everyone include Erina.

Regarding Diamond is unbreakable let's read, I'm on chapter 411 of part 4, What the hell is with Araki and naked children with an adult scenes? drat. Stop it.
That's a Japanese thing and it's very weird and disturbing by our standards but over there the connotations aren't quite the same. It's probably more to show innocence and purity rather than anything remotely sexual about it. I don't like it and wish it would go away too, but it is what it is.


A pretty good video showing what things look like to outsiders during The World.

Sugita is also Mr.Satan in Dragon Ball Kai (and probably Super).

He's the best by default.

e: No, I was thinking of Oldseph.
Sugita is not the best, sorry.

I got the V.A's for Oldseph and Youngseph mixed up and realised a moment after pressing post.

The good news is that Oldseph and Satan are the same dude though.

It happens a lot, so I'm used to it.

I am totally not wrong here though.
Koyasu and Ishizuka are the best VAs in JoJo. :colbert:

It depends how resistant to it you are. If you're determined to not lose it, you never will. He's written to be an American JoJo so he wouldn't have that mind set though.

There's at least 2 JoJo's better than Joseph.

Josuke Higashikata
Mar 7, 2013


I'd personally put the number at 3 and possibly 4. 2 is guaranteed unless you're tasteless!

Josuke Higashikata
Mar 7, 2013


I totally understand the viewpoint if you're only watching the anime because he's a much more engaging protagonist than Jonathan or Jotaro because he's funny and the captain of the ruse cruise. I certainly like him too, but the other JoJo's I consider better are better for different reasons to why Joseph is good.

I probably prefer Oldseph too, though.

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.)

You know for a fact that DIO abuses The World to mess around with his mansion bros all the time.

Also, the shotgun shooter in manga isn't explicitly Nukesaku, that's an anime thing. Even so, if you tried to figure it out, you'd probably come to that conclusion because if DIO wanted to lash out at someone to blowing several holes into his chest if things went wrong, Nukesaku's the expendable one.

The experience of never having read something going in is directly replaced by the sheer anticipation of seeing your favourite parts finally animated.

There are so many things in DiU that are going to be extremely good to watch.

Don't read Duwang first.
Read it if you want to see what's so funny once you've read all of DiU.

(It's not really that funny and a lot of the "iconic" duwangs are in the better translation)

Josuke Higashikata
Mar 7, 2013


If you do go with the analysis of coloured vs not coloured and how it affects flow or something, bear in mind that the DiU coloured version isn't finished for translations and that it's not coloured by Araki at all, and at most only uses "Araki choice" colour variants

Honestly, that's probably for the best. Black and white and in a language that isn't broken is how Araki presented it, that's probably the best way to analyse and discuss it.

Also they have to censor stuff in a way that's easy to uncensor for the Blurays

They won't un-censor anything. They'll just do the easiest censorship possible for broadcast versions and poo poo it out. Un-censoring it creates a lot more work than going over it in black with a brush on whatever they paint this stuff in.
