I don't think people complain about changes like those that have some fun behind them.

There's quite a few people who called Filthy Acts at a Reasonable Price and Worse Company the worst (ha) renames

 

[JadedWriter]

Debauched Services at a Affordable Price.

 

[SolarKnight]

Looks like we're not getting the end of the alien arc this week and instead it'll share an episode with the beginning of Highway Star.

 

[cntr]

Ha, that's going to be fun.

 

[Tizoc]

Norio wakamoto needs to voice president valentine in the anime.

 

[Boss Doggie]

I've been wondering, there's no stand based on Daft Punk right

 

[cntr]

I've been wondering, there's no stand based on Daft Punk right

not yet

but I really really want there to be

 

[Thud]

Norio wakamoto needs to voice president valentine in the anime.

Fitting.

He did Hol Horse in the Part 3 OVA.

 

[Speedydonut]

That new OP sneaking in a tiny part 5 reference

 

[JayEH]

Oh snap!

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Here's my fast and dirty breakdown of the new OP

Killer Queen, SHA, Stray Cat and Cinderella body swap

BITES THE DUSTO

Josuke's iconic pose, characters interact when they pass, signposts in the back say SC 1987, DU 1999, GW 2001. Obviously Parts 3-5

Cheap Trick, Super Fly, Stray Cat, Highway Star and Enigma

 

[Astral]

What's the swirly thing with the peace sign? Mikitaka?

 

[Baha]

What's the swirly thing with the peace sign? Mikitaka?

I thought that was RPS Kid. Could be Enigma though.

 

[RecRoulette]

This is a "I read the manga" problem, but I feel like the pacing was really weird with that episode.

Felt like they were rushing to make it through the whole dice game, and then didn't finish.

 

[Astral]

I thought that was RPS Kid. Could be Enigma though.

Enigma is the one before. The guy's face is on it and everything. You might be right though, it kinda seems like RPS Kid.

 

[JayEH]

It did seem to end abruptly. I was surprised when I saw the credits still thought it was a good episode.

 

[Baha]

Enigma is the one before. The guy's face is on it and everything. You might be right though, it kinda seems like RPS Kid.

Ah, you're right. For some reason I thought that was Superfly.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

I thought that was RPS Kid. Could be Enigma though.

It's probably RPS Kid. The black hole is probably supposed to represent the hole in his cheek.

 

[Astral]

It's probably RPS Kid. The black hole is probably supposed to represent the hole in his cheek.

Ah that makes sense. It's definitely him then. That would mean Mikitaka isn't in the opening at all unless I missed him. That's kinda weird.

 

[Baha]

Ah that makes sense. It's definitely him then. That would mean Mikitaka isn't in the opening at all unless I missed him. That's kinda weird.

Look at the frame with Cheap Trick again
Also he's in the last frame pointing up as well.

EDIT: OP link, hoping a higher def version is posted soon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dmHrd2_0tg

Lmao I didn't even notice him in the Cheap Trick frame. Fucking alien.

 

[RecRoulette]

The song by itself is okay, but just going off first impressions it's way up there as far as Jojo openings go.

It's going to be so hype when Kosaku triggers Bites the Dust and makes the beginning of the OP play over and over.

 

[Baha]

How hype is the OP gonna be when

Spoiler

they put in Kosaku with the Bite the Dust hair style during the breakdown section?

 

[The Scollard]

I thought that was RPS Kid. Could be Enigma though.

It's RPS Kid. If you look into the swirl, you can see a clenched fist a.k.a rock.

 

[MillionStabs]

I wish the episode ended on Rohan cutting his finger off.

 

[D-Man]

The shot of Kira using his finger pressing pose in the new OP will definitely lead to some BTD shenanigans in the last couple of episodes. I can feel it.

 

[LordOfLore]

SBR is now available in color.

 

[Tizoc]

SBR is now available in color.

I kinda hope we get an updated translation similar to part 5's
I really like the effort put into it hy the fan translators and would love to see something similqr with later parts if possible

 

[RubberLuffy]

God I hope they make it so the OP starts over when Kira does the finger press. That will be so dope. They'll have to after the super hype reaction from fans the DIO interrupt got in Kioku.

 

[Squishy3]

Oh that's cool, they referenced Kosaku Kawajiri's ASB theme in the OP. Has the text "Kill A" in the background when he does the turn towards the camera.

 

[Tizoc]

Haven't watched the new ep. yet but did Rohan's house burn down or is that in the next episode?

 

[Squishy3]

Haven't watched the new ep. yet but did Rohan's house burn down or is that in the next episode?

Next episode. It's gonna finish off the dice game and then move into Highway Star.

And re: the DU/GW signs they only use the To Be Continued arrow three times in the OP and it never appears again after the Golden Wind sign pops up, in addition to the one where the sign pops up landing on the street sign before switching scenes.

 

[Zonic]

It would appear that Toonami got the rights to play Roundabout. Wooooooooo.

Edit: Go to 42:47 to see the promo that'll air on TV. Hot damn, they actually used Roundabout for the commercial.

 

[cntr]

Someone noticed that if you play Great Days backwards, it works really well

 

[Salty Rice]

Someone noticed that if you play Great Days backwards, it works really well

Yeah works really well. Would be awesome if they put "Matured" Kosaku in the OP and let him rewind the OP.

Also the Part 5 tease has the nice touch that it appears with Koichi.

 

[SolarKnight]

The shot of Kira using his finger pressing pose in the new OP will definitely lead to some BTD shenanigans in the last couple of episodes. I can feel it.

Kira pushes the button and then suddenly everything starts going backwards and time travel visual effects start happening. Then when everything starts over...it's actually Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town playing.

Oh that's cool, they referenced Kosaku Kawajiri's ASB theme in the OP. Has the text "Kill A" in the background when he does the turn towards the camera.

Isn't that just how they used to romanize Kira's name originally?

 

[JadedWriter]

Am I evil for rooting for Kira a smidge? Best part of the ep was him trying not to rape murder his wife. Any other villains Kira tier? Outside of Kars Jojo has had excellent villains so far.

 

[cntr]

There's a "SC 1987" sign right before too, and the Justice clock is a reference to Enya and arrow-clock from Part 3's ED!

 

[cntr]

so who wants to figure out all the stands in the inner circle

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

From the top and to the right like a clock -

Cinderella
Earth, Wind and Fire
Earth, Wind and Fire again
Harvest
Highway Star
Harvest again?
The Lock
No idea
wtf is that
Achtung Baby

 

[Zonic]

Speaking of Highway Star, it would seem it was renamed to Highway Go Go, the same name given in All-Star Battle.

 

[cntr]

hmm

Cinderella Pearl Jam
Superfly?
Boy II Man?? Earth, Wing and Fire
Pearl Jam Harvest
HIghway Star
Surface?
The Lock
Love Deluxe
Earth, Wind, and Fire? Cinderella
Achtung Baby

It's all the eventual "ally" stands.

Edit: lol I just realized the weird zodiac-y symbol is actually Cinderella's face, I think this is right

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Am I evil for rooting for Kira a smidge? Best part of the ep was him trying not to rape murder his wife. Any other villains Kira tier? Outside of Kars Jojo has had excellent villains so far.

Part 5's villain is a kind of undercooked.

6 & 7's though? Good stuff. Real good stuff.

 

[cntr]

Diavolo will probably be a lot more interesting in the anime, with actual voice acting behind his lines...and he has quite a few memorable lines.

also if any of you read My Hero Academia

 

[JayEH]

So with this episode we have another voice actor from the games voicing a different character in the anime. Mikitaka's voice actor is Funny Valentine in the games lol.

 

[cntr]

I hope they play the English version of the OP for the Stray Cat arc, since it's Kira's Bizarre Adventure

 

[RecRoulette]

It would appear that Toonami got the rights to play Roundabout. Wooooooooo.

Edit: Go to 42:47 to see the promo that'll air on TV. Hot damn, they actually used Roundabout for the commercial.

Goddamn that was hype.

 

[The Scollard]

hmm

Cinderella Pearl Jam
Superfly?
Boy II Man?? Earth, Wing and Fire
Pearl Jam Harvest
HIghway Star
Surface?
The Lock
Love Deluxe
Earth, Wind, and Fire? Cinderella
Achtung Baby

It's all the eventual "ally" stands.

I don't think it's all the "ally" stands. I think the top right corner, where you have Superfly, is supposed to be Bad Company (it's wearing the army helmet, and has the scar across it's eye, as seen below.)

Keicho wasn't really an ally... well, maybe for a couple seconds he was something of one, but not really an ally.

 

[Rewrite]

That toonami promo is fucking badass. Wow.

 

[Captain Rage Quit 69]

That toonami promo was great.

Gonna try tuning in for the premiere, it'll be my first time viewing the dub so hopefully it won't be awful (and please also have the right to play Sono Chi no Sadame)
