all my loli wolf companions are so moe
I really don't think they were totally in pain too. Like, Okuyasu didn't scream when his stomach burst out.
Well the chapter was written in 1992, so I'll go with that. The yen to USD exchange rate then was 125:1, so it was $28 1992 Dollars, which in 2016 dollars is $48.
So pretty expensive for a bunch of high school kids, but not to bad.
Yeah and him complaining earlier about his stomach being in pain was 99.9% because of the issues he already had.

The fact that he could even talk while his chipped teeth came out and new ones were growing should also be a sign that yeah, it looks painful but is actually painless.

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
I loved this episode, I was kinda already figuring it out but I enjoyed the ride

See I felt the twist was too obvious when Josuke was acting overly suspicious and trying to get his boy to say the food wasn't good so they wouldn't have to pay.

Am I crazy or this was the best looking episode of the whole series? Or at least top 3
It made it all the more shocking that it was an adorable little puppy, that at first glance, got it's digestive system organs flown out of it's body. Speaking of which, it makes me wonder just how gory the Blu-Ray release will be, because the various innards/scratching/fuckin' jaw almost ripping out actually made me slightly squeamish at gore for the first time in quite a while.
Also, I wonder if these things will help fix my constipation?

Yeah, I was pretty convinced that nothing was going to happen, but the dog scene took me for a sucker haha.

The fun part was that it wasn't really a twist to predict since they give you the two possible outcomes right from the start and then ping pongs between them making you wonder which one we're gonna end on. It makes you gasp at the horror sections and ponder how they're going to explain away this one as it escalates.

GUYS WHAT THE FUCK AM I WATCHING? A dog just fucking exploded by eating a fucking lamb chop? Was that a red pepper stand? Toni Trendy takes his job too seriously, at least he's not running around trying to murder folks.
Technically, they're not copyrighted, they're trademarked.
The difference is that you can use the names and refer to the artists whenever, but you can't pretend to be them. So naming characters is out, mentioning in dialogue is fine.
That's to set up Ultimate Kars having ALL OF NATURE inside him.

So I downloaded the daisuki app and Jojo appears no where on the very short list of anime being offered. What am I missing?

Episode 10
That was hilarious. I've been waiting for this ever since I read the original chapters in the manga. It's the ultimate fakeout, and it's wonderful to see in action. It plays with your expectations, then flips them. It's great, and this episode made me hungry.
Also, why the hell did they change Trussardi's name. I mean, "Trendy"? What the hell?

Jojo isn't available on Daisuki, simulcasts are on Crunchyroll but also available on Hulu with a week delay.

Ah, thanks!
I was wondering if Crazy Diamond was going to turn the spaghetti into the skinball :x
Episode 10
This fucking series man I swear, AMAZING EPISODE. I was simultaneously dying of laughter while being continually grossed out with each new thing that happened to Okayasu. I had an inclination that it was gonna turn out nothing was evil about Tonio, but still watching the way it played out was tense.

Josuke punching the plate of spaghetti to turn it back to its original form is just hilarious! And I see the resident puppy harm is still intact, but this time with a twist. Also all the Italian food made me wanna cook some pasta for dinner tonight lol!

Who would've thought an Jojo episode could make me disgusted and hungry at the same time

Delicious food (recipes included!) and body horror work well when it's JoJo.

I feel so bad for the people in this thread that haven't had food good enough to induce an over-reaction.
This whole episode was really entertaining after reading that interview-manga with Araki linked earlier in the thread.
Also, Okuyasu is a real man. He's not afraid of crying at the movies or the gross parts of a spa day.

Thinking about Josuke's mom I see.

I saw that. How does that address my general dislike of "MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM OIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSHIIIIIII SUGGGGGGGOIIIII" screaming?
People can praise food with more subdued reactions. Which granted, wouldn't fit Jojo. But again, I dislike overreactions to food. It just isn't my thing and thank god Jojo usually isn't about food.
You're really upset that I didn't like 1 single episode of a 40+ episode series.

That sounds like an odd thing to get hung up on. Is it that you are you grossed out by seeing/hearing other people eat?

So many shounen do the cliched overreaction to food at least once. Is it strange to be tired of it? I don't think the dude hated the episode, but it's understandable for someone to roll their eyes at the 50th time they've seen a SUGOKU OISHIIII scene.

Pretty much what Lumination said. It seems like something in every Japanese show. Live action OR animated. And it is just kind of eye rolling to me.

I guess I wasn't aware/hadn't thought that "overreacting to food" was such a common trope.
The spirit of Kakyoin lives on.
EVERYONE is thinking about Josuke's mum!
It is.
I just gave this scene a pass because, you know, it was written like 25 years ago.

There is nothing new under the sun. It's all in the execution. This episode had a Jojo-esque flair and extravagance in the extreme nature of Okuyasu's healing and the swings between Josuke's suspicion and Tonio's sincerity that make it not just another "guy reacts to food" story.
Indeed.

Jojo gets a pass for all tropes because I just assume Araki invented them.
