I just see the paw prints and the blood drops staying because they're markings instead of passing bullets. The end result is that nothing can get hurt during the skipped time. It's what I'm going with flimsy as it may be.
Honestly, and not to sound like a dick, but we've already had this conversation so agree to disagree.

What the fuck is NCR Redslayer's problem posting that comic? I'm a habitual line stepper and I know better than to post that.

The issue is Erigu, is that you're not getting it, or it's not being made clear to you. In example:
"Removed from Causality" means just that, that Diavolo wasn't hit. The paw prints will still be there, and the blood drops will still be there, because the people those marks are on weren't removed from causality.

Cuz for a moment I thought "Oh shit was that something for the manga thread?" and then I read the rest of the post and no it's just there. In the anime thread.
And now it's been quoted...

Only problem being that I think Gappy is in that comic. He's not in the Phantom Blood Op and they're only really there for a split second.

Jo2uke and Johnny aren't in the OP for...reasons.

Honestly I think it's making mountains out of molehills.
If someone posted say, a whole panel from part 6 or something, then your have a problem. But it's a comic that just says JoJo and shows a bunch of people standing around. That's not much of a spoiler.

They opted not to put in the rebooted world stuff, though I have no idea how they rebooted the universe...it's probably zany as fuck.

Imma just sit here and leave that up to my imagination. I do still like being surprised by this.
A couple months ago, someone posted a Bites the Dust spoiler that got mod-wiped super quick. At this point, who knows?

The spoiler thing has always been funny for me. The "Where's the plot" folks got the manga readers so riled up they had to go "KIRA: MAIN VILLAIN" as soon as he showed up. Arguably a big spoiler in itself but not a blatant plot point so it's all good I guess.
The only reason this stands out so much is the current state of the "main villain" in Jojolion.

Ah, I screwed up my original question. Was asking more specifically about the stands named after songs, not bands, and if they related to the lyrics. I'm sure Araki thinks of the stand's visual design first then usually picks a name to directly match that.
Then there's also stuff somewhere in the middle, like how Sticky Fingers' whole zipper theme comes from the cover art of the album it's named for.

I think some of the anime watchers just don't have the patience for what DiU is. Just cause you like Shounen doesn't mean you like all Shounen, which I'm discovering by seeing how some in the Naruto thread can't stomach anything done by Togashi cause it's paced differently.

But there's nothing really wrong with Part 4 though. I wonder what the age breakdown is for the anime complainers.

It's so good. Guys is Echoes act three in the OP? I've been wondering what the fuck that thing was with the yellow eyes for weeks, I just never bothered to ask about it.

Then what the fuck is it? Thing looks like a Saibaman.

Are you reading the new translation? But anyway the part gets kind of a bad rap which is mostly due to it having the worst translation in the series, yes its worse than duwang. Its getting fixed though, the new translation team is about halfway through

The abrupt shift from part 3 to part 4's style is definitely something I appreciated more after I finished the whole thing. The first time I read it, it was like "what the fuck?"
I've come to assume that anime folks who really dig Part 3's structure and pacing are going to go gaga for Part 5's structure and pacing.
Part 6 is more up in the air. Part 3 anime fans seem to really love the fact that the arc's main goal is stated up-front and that the party is more "traditionally heroic" (for lack of a better term) than Part 4's team. Part 6 definitely makes the overarching goal clear early on but its team is definitely not "traditionally heroic".

There was a ton of noise from some of the anime-only crowd about how Stardust Crusaders was just stand of the week fluff though. You'll hear the same thing with Vento Aureo, as it uses the same formula.

It must be the new translation because I've read duwang and it's nowhere near that bad. It did say something about "old scans" but I think that just refers to the image quality
I love love love the stands of the main cast in part 5. All of them are so interesting! The italian mobster angle is also really cool, I feel like I'll enjoy this part a lot

Finish part 5 before you fall into the trap even the most hardened Jojologists fall into when they ask how King Crimson works.
5 has some really awesome action, but like mentioned before, the old translation makes the character stuff seem boring.
No, that's the old translation lol. Don't read those.
Yo, when Jolyne killed the lawyer in the most violent way possible, I was like, "WTF?"
Hatty

The old translation is tricky because while its mostly grammatically correct half of it is completely made up. Like completely made up lines of dialog, its amazing how bad it is. Old scans mean old translation so avoid those if you can

Is Shigechi the only character to be killed over something as mundane as a fucking katsu sandwich. Cause seriously. Shigechi was essentially killed over his obsession with a fucking sandwich.
It's showing all the future protagonists, people already see that one is a girl and another is handicapped (since why would he be the only one sitting down). It's a spoiler, somebody in the thread already said that Jotaro had a daughter around DiU's time. It's irritating because it's fucking obvious that you shouldn't post that shit, but people still do.

A fingered sandwich no less
Basically, Part 5 was translated from Japanese to Chinese by a guy who didn't speak Japanese well, then was translated by a different guy who spoke English fluently, but didn't know Chinese well.
So the grammar might be fine, but Vento Aureo's translation is literally a bootleg of a bootleg.

To make it even worse - Shigechi didn't even get his last meal because a dog ate it.

The decomposition germs and ingestion of Kira jizz would've killed him any way.
On top of being hit by a basketball being thrown by a bunch of schoolgirls while near death.
