Truth. Bloody Stream is great but man, the Dio moment during End of the World was something special.
Last Train Home is better
Thank you! I don't understand why more people don't seem to get this.
Walk Like An Egyptian was the best ending theme dammit. But yeah the usage of Roundabout was fucking perfect.
Why wasn't walk like an Egyptian used when they actually got to Egypt tho
Blasphemy it was one of my least favourite ending songs. They varied up roundabout a lot which made it even better. And when those guitar strings started to drop in the last seconds of the episode, manly tears were often shed.

Roundabout is best Ed of all time
ALL TIME

I... agree, if just for the simple fact that it is so adaptable.
The answer to how and why it is that big would take longer to explain than it did for me to to make the gif.
The TLDR verion is that gifs suck at compression and concessions had to be made in order to save time/ minimize quality loss of the file I converted into a gif.
The webm version I made was 1.3mb and the AVI was 4.94mb. These should be the standard and indeed I use a gaf script that runs most of the gifs posted here as webms/ gifvs because it's faster/ less resource intensive but because most websites are behind the times gifs remain, even though sites like imgur and gfycat automatically create links to webm/gifv versions that are often less than 10-5% the size while retaining the same quality (relative quality anyway, the script was is a wip and some issues are present) - though the biggest immediate improvement (since size shouldn't be an issue in this high speed information age) would be the fact that these would no longer be limited to 50 fps or 256 colors like gifs are.
I did take one of the pre gif output files and ran it through a processor and got this

It's 11.8mb but it dropped a few frames and it would take some tweaking to get it at an acceptable level.... all of which being more time on my end in service to making a joke more efficient. And eh.
Roundabout in Parts 1+2 was some of the best ending outro imaginable until I started Hunter x Hunter. Each ED is used almost perfectly within the episode and the shows use of Postcard Memories is just superb.
Oh yea, HxH also had an amazing one.
That's a really good question.
The fade into outro for the Chimera arc were on point.
Chills every time.
JoJo was also brilliant for this in part 1 and 2, I kinda want to see if they would have worked for later parts too. Imagine Roundabout just when everyone sees Bites the Dust.
Hunting For Your Dream is the GOAT Ending transition for me. Even tops Roundabout. All the future ones are great as well.
Maybe his own fans were not his type?
yeah maybe that's why
Yeah, that one is great too. ED2 just gets me unbelievably hyped for the next episode.

I want to learn Japanese just so I can sing Great Days. I've become obsessed with that song.
So No Chi No Sadame is still the most badass JoJo opener tho.
Especially this cover.

I have gained so much respect for So No Chi No Sadame since first hearing it. I thought it was a little stuffy for a long time - much like Part 1 in general, natch - but I dig it a lot.
CHASE is probably my favourite OP.

Well that was an hour of my life.
This is a legendary gif. I was going to do something with this scene, but no way can it top this. 10/10
Because they were walking like an Egyptian TO Egypt? lol

People - well, JoJo's fans at least - talk about Steel Ball Run all the time. Honestly, that's the part I've been anticipating the most.

Part 7 along with part 4 seem to be the fan favorites among the manga readers. I also personally think part 6 is incredible, and part 8 has been fantastic so far. Part 5 isn't perfect, but it's still a pretty fun ride. So don't worry, there is plenty of Jojo greatness left.
Well that was an hour of my life.
That was brilliant. Can't wait to see this on reddit for all that sweet karma.

I am under the opinion that each Jojo part (which the exception of Vento Aureo) gets better and better.
I tried, but apparently it's only allowed on the shit-posting JoJo subreddit.
But that is where the karma mines are! What are you waiting for?
I posted it, but it got taken down.
