I might try to watch Outlaw Star on Toonami when I can. Would certainly make for a good rewatch.

 

[cntr]

shit I missed the bump

 

[Hellwarden]

Home Again looks like a tv movie to be honest.

 

[Htown]

still not really feeling this season of JoJo

don't know what it is

 

[Shard]

So sometime in the late 1990s/early 2000s Japan made it illegal to show minors (under 20) drinking alcohol or smoking cigarettes and thus the JP broadcast had the black censor bars over Jotaro lighting up and smoking.

 

[Neoxon]

Sometimes I forget that the dub is uncensored until the grotesque parts happen.

Its a show about punch ghosts

/s

It gets better as it goes on, and from the sound of it the VA's are still settling in (or at least avdol's is)

yeah, part 3 takes a lot longer to click than part 2, but it's worth it in the end

that said, it's my second least favorite part

 

[Doctor Decimate]

don't know what it is

the fights get a little more elaborate/stupid as the show goes on

Tower of Gray

My guess from the first four episodes is that it's going to be a monster of the week type season with the overarching story of "we must beat DIO" looming over each episode.

 

[RampagingSoul]

"...never riding in a plane with you again..." Haha

Glad my internet finally started working.

i remember feeling the same way.

IMO part 3 doesn;t really hit its stride until a good ways in. Then it gets fucking awsome

It is that yes.

 

[Morlas]

lesgo to China guys!

 

[Man God]

G Gundam!!!

 

[Schadenfreude]

It really does feel like a road trip with this show.

 

[Neoxon]

I'll never get tired of Robin the Announcer.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Tower of Gray

Love the J O J O

 

[cntr]

Also, if you don't like part 3's tone or direction, don't worry, because part 4 will completely switch up the tone again. That's the nice thing about Jojo.

 

[Doctor Decimate]

do they actually recognize these guys are giant

 

[Shard]

Also today some factual information about Hong Kong for some reason.

 

[Zonic]

k enough fighting guys, it's time for cultural lessons

 

[Hellwarden]

Giants seem kinda normal in this universe.

 

[Ashby]

But isn't this *the* Part though?

 

[Grexeno]

The Joestars look hilarious next to normal humans.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

This is all in the manga. Araki likes traveling and learning new things.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

"Hot cola"?

Blasphemy, indeed.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

D A N D Y G U Y

 

[Regiruler]

Hong Kong!?

 

[cntr]

Araki actually travelled across Asia as research for Part 3, so there's a lot of trivia, lol

...I forgot about fucking hot cola. That's a real thing, somehow.

 

[Shard]

Seriously when did this become The Travel Channel.

 

[Morlas]

i don't know what you guys are talking about i see at least 100 6.5 ft musclebound guys a day

 

[Captain Rage Quit 69]

The first few stand fights pale in comparison to what comes later IMO

 

[Grexeno]

Actually Dio would fucking wreck the shit out of all of you

 

[Sianos]

i love jojo's random bursts of cultural exposition

 

[Schadenfreude]

Why not get a private plane? I'm sure he can afford it.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

But isn't this *the* Part though?

It is the most iconic and well known part, but everyone has their favorite.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

The Joestars look hilarious next to normal humans.

The Joestar's seem to have won the genetic lottery.

 

[Zonic]

k enough cultural trivia, time for a history lesson on books

 

[Shard]

So The Speedwagon Foundation wouldn't have a private plane?

 

[Doctor Decimate]

*is spotted*

 

[Hellwarden]

I'm sure there aren't any shark stands or anything like that.

*cut to team being attacked by a giant shark stand*

 

[Man God]

One Piece!!!

 

[cntr]

But isn't this *the* Part though?

Part 3 is iconic because it made Jojo popular and introduces stands, and the concept of technique-based powers to shounen in general, but it's not what all Jojo is like. Every part is completely different in tone, theme, and story. It's like an anthology series.

 

[Zonic]

hi, chun-li

 

[Morlas]

we got a guest

 

[Neoxon]

He's here!

 

[Mik317]

L E A R N I N G B O Y Z

 

[Shard]

I wonder how annoyed Araki's friends got when dropped all of this trivia on them.
