Yeah how could people hate SO NO CHI NO SADAMEEEEEEEEEEE

JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOJOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Thud]

So no chi no sadame was a kickass intro harkening back to that great age of anime ops like ai wo torimodose

You wa shock.

 

[RadioHeadAche]

Steel Ball Run is pretty impressive. I'm on civil war right now, but Araki's done a great job with the characters. I really love his back stories for them.

Also, is this the point where Valentine's design changes from being short and padded?

Everybody talks about the napkins, but I've always appreciated the tennis ball metaphor

Is the napkin thing during or after the first chapter of D4C?

 

[cntr]

It comes up soon, I think

 

[Monochromaticx]

Will the next episode gonna have enigma? Didn't see anything about it in the preview

I think they might might move the Tomoko attack to the beginning as a cold open.

wait

you guys weren't kidding

Jesus is actually in jojo

 

[cntr]

I always liked how Jesus acted and talked like normal Bible Jesus, except he's inside Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

 

[RubberLuffy]

wait

Remember, it's hard to spoil JoJo because no one believes the spoilers.

I wanna print out and frame this post

Steel Ball Run is the story of two cowboys using their balls to find Jesus

And Jojolion is about a sailorman using his balls to find out who he is.

you know, Jesus literally told Johnny to shoot himself

 

[Hatty]

it was good advice tbh

 

[RecRoulette]

#fgcmangaedits are goddamn hilarious

 

[Numb]

People look at me like i'm crazy when i talk about Jojo or try to get them into it

 

[JadedWriter]

They need to fix that "P." I originally read that as my dad stopped working so I couldn't do my normal combo strings.

[Captain Rage Quit 69]

I mean if Jesus came to give me advice and I was a horse jockey in late 1800s America I'd shoot myself under the Lord's command too

Edit: Remember when Johnny killed innocent civilians to rescue Jesus

 

[Glass Rebel]

time to reread SBR aka the best part

Yep, also the time he killed innocent civilians trying to kill Valentine. And the other time he killed civilians to try and kill Diego.

Johnny doesn't give a fuck.

 

[JayEH]

There was also that time Gyro saw the conductor of the train brutally being forced to keep the train running and gyro just told him tough shit and keep on holding on lol.

 

[Numb]

time to reread SBR aka the best part

No lies detected

 

[cntr]

Remember when Diego turned two guards into dinosaur lamps?

As in, he didn't turn lamps into dinosaurs. He turned two humans into dinosaurs that functioned like lamps.

 

[JayEH]

yes that was part of Scary Monsters Requiem's new abilities.

 

[Numb]

Jojo is actually a gag manga pretending to be something else

 

[cntr]

I also appreciate how Tusk is Fingernail Horror: The Stand

 

[Captain Rage Quit 69]

Tusk was actually a setup so Araki could make the climax of Steel Ball Run a western-style shootout at sunset, except instead of cowboys it's between a paraplegic horse jockey and the president.

[FlowersisBritish]

Bit of an aside, does no one smoke weed or get high in Japan? I can't really think of any shows or mangas where I saw someone roll a dank blunt and be like "we're gonna be shonnen protagonists tonight boizzz"

Japan is extremely anti-drug. The culture of Japan itself is a major deterrence against it, the country has a 99% conviction rate and an extreme prejudice to crime and being jailed.

wait

Part 7 will usher in a new age of Jojo memes once it is animated.

 

[Shmuppers]

That whole fight with Civil War is probably going to be one of my favorite Jojo moments.

Magenta Magenta is such a bitch tho

I need Stoned Ocean in my life

If Jolyne was a weedhead her stand would be named Stoner Free

F.F. would heal everyone by injecting them with sentient kush

Heaven actually refers to attaining the ultimate high, and flashbacks reveal DIO was hella blazed during Stardust Crusaders

Heavy Weather would play out exactly the same

EDIT: I noticed that every time I bring up D4C in a discussion I have a tab labelled "synonyms for deeds" open 5 minutes later

I wish I could bottle this revelation when people get to that

 

[Sibersk Esto]

I mean, the language about the corpse is not subtle up to that point.

Wouldn't explaining Stone Ocean make more sense if you could just explain everything away by just saying, "people are high as fuck" though?

 

[Genryu]

So I was playing Heritage for the Future and I wondered something.

Anubis can learn attacks and be able to counter that attack, and its speed and strength increases to counter the person it's fighting.

If it could survive the attacks long enough, could Anubis eventually force its user to move in frozen time?

 

[Captain Rage Quit 69]

Is it possible for even light to move in the frozen time? This is a concept I've actually been toying with for a story, where the big question is "can you overcome time manipulation by just going fast enough?" To answer this we'd have to take a look at how time passes at different rates based on your position relative to a nearby gravitational mass.

I don't feel like reading a billion articles to inform myself on the details of light travel and time dilation so I'll just point to the time Pucci used Made in Heaven to speed up Jotaro's stopped time (is that how it happened I'm not sure, let me reread it--holy shit Pucci made a couple go at it for four hours lmaoooo) and say "it'll be like that probably maybe I don't know"

I think I'm beginning to understand why Araki doesn't try to explain a lot of the stand bullshit he writes outside of incredibly detailed biological writings on fictional creatures.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

I mean, the language about the corpse is not subtle up to that point.

Araki was never really subtle about the corpse.

"Hey Gyro, that weird dinosaur terrorist said something about the corpse, he said it was almost 1900 years old or something"

"That's dumb, he probably said it was 190 years old, you never listen to anyone, Johnny."

"But is a 1900 year old corpse really impossible? I mean the Native Americans lived here back then, there were people here."

"There's no evidence of that, were you there?"

"I bet the terrorists know, this country itself is actually a terrorist."

"A saint from 1900 years ago?...It couldn't possibly be that guy."

 

[cntr]

Don't they talk about how the corpse has holes in its hands right before that, too?

 

[remz]

I noticed this too when I was rereading it lol, but I remember being legit shook by that twist the first time around. Maybe because jojos is so out there normally I didn't put 2+2 together. I think the dialogue when Gyro is in denail about it is really funny anti conspiracy theory shit too.
