[ScraftyDevil]

The Bites the Dust OP, for those who are curious/impatient.

 

[Thud]

Perfection.

 

[SolarKnight]

I thought the episode was gonna end with Josuke showing up behind Kira, but having it end right before that was even better.

 

[Breads]

I wonder how the King Crimson OP will change.

Would it just show King Crimson's big stupid face and skip 10 seconds at a time through the intro.

 

[cntr]

I thought the episode was gonna end with Josuke showing up behind Kira, but having it end right before that was even better.

I was really surprised by that, but I guess it keeps up the suspense and fits better with the episode time!

Did you guys notice that the phone was quietly ringing while Kira was drinking his tea?

 

[Mr. Smiley]

Yeah I had to reread Bite the Dust after this episode. The build up was way too good.

 

[Tizoc]

So Kira explains that the reason he took on Kawajiri's face wasn't because he was trying to flee or is afraid from the gang.
He just doesn't like conflict, because it goes against his views of a quiet life.
Sure, Kira, whatever you say.

 

[cntr]

Kira just wants a quiet life, man. Who're these delinquent punks to come try and beat him up?

 

[Astral]

So this is the part where Kira stands there gloating to Hayato long enough for Josuke to walk in and listen in on them right? How does Josuke make it before Rohan explodes though? I need a refresher.

Remember when Hayato was holding the phone after the missed call? You could hear a dialing tone during that scene because he was calling Josuke to make sure he made it on time.

 

[cntr]

Hayato, after picking up the phone,

Spoiler

looks up Josuke in the phone book, and calls him and immediately hangs up so that Josuke wakes up early, and causes him to arrive a few minutes earlier than he would've normally done.

 

[Samuraicop]

So glad everything is getting amimted perfectly. My second favorite Kira got his time to be cocky now it's gonna be a rough fall. Just loving everything at looking forward for the best part of Jojo in Part V

Oh right. Fuck, Hayato is real as fuck.

 

[MillionStabs]

Damnit, if they ended the episode on Josuke standing right behind Kira my boner would have reached the heavens

I think it's better to end on the rock bottom despair. Makes everybody in the anime thread freak the fuck out about how they'll get out of this.

yeah! i was losing it when i heard the ringing! based DP!

For Stardust Crusaders final OP we had The World stop it and for Diamond Is Ubreakable we got a rewind OP. You know what this means for Part 5, right?

When the OP is about to start we'll just hear "King Crimson!" and it'll cut to the end of the OP.

Honestly, I think it's so that

Spoiler

in the beginning of the next episode, Crazy Diamond can fix the OP. And if they do, my hype is going to be through the roof!

 

[Astral/H3X]

I was kind of annoyed that they revealed that Rohan wasn't perma dead at the end of the last episode, (Because I totally wanted it to end right after he exploded to freak out my GF) but it sounds like this episode ends at an even better place.

Also, the edited ending is hype as hell.

Should show the characters just massively confused right afterwards.

 

[FlowersisBritish]

Should just be a minute and thirty seconds of Araki trying to explain how the hell KC works... and then failing.

 

[cntr]

Have Part 5's opening be Cowboy Bebop-style, except based around film reels. Then have the reels break and jump around when King Crimson is introduced.

For Part 6, have the orientation of the opening, not including the characters, flip sideways. And then have a second opening where everything within the opening speeds up, except the characters, and they have to deal with it within the opening.

Better yet, King Crimson past him explaining how King Crimson works.

"Stone Ocean's opening but every time they say "Jojo" it speeds up"

What would part 7's be? The opening switches between Johnny, Gyro and Diego and Jonathan, William and Dio?

SBR's alternate opening would probably be related to Ticket to Ride's/Love Train's ability to take bad luck and push it somewhere else.

 

[Baha]

I hope that the final OP for part 5 does something with the fact that

Spoiler

they change bodies during Requiem

.

 

[Captain Rage Quit 69]

Yep, if anything Part 5's crazy OP shenanigans will revolve around

Spoiler

Requiem and everyone's gonna be like "wait why the fuck is King Crimson with Buccellati"

and then they remember "oh yeah because Part 5 is the best"

Probably a lot of arrow shit too, and at some point a stone turned into a beetle that flies toward the ocean, wink wink.

I hope they don't screw with part 5 character names given a lot of them are named after food, I need that to stay.

If Toriyama can get away with naming characters after random shit in DBZ, I think the part 5 character names will be fine.

 

[SENPAIatLARGE]

It's the same OP, but everyone has been replaced with various alternate Valentines'.
Part 6 op just speeds up until it cuts to a song that's similar, but not the same as the first.

 

[Squishy3]

"Stone Ocean's opening but every time they say "Jojo" it speeds up"

Stone Ocean all episodes except everytime Pucci says heaven it speeds up

 

[Salty Rice]

Rewatching today's op, it feels weird that the "everyone joins Reimi in pointing to the Sky" part still played regularly. Guessing it's meant to be symbolic or something.

You cant change fate

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

"Stone Ocean's opening but every time they say "Jojo" it speeds up"

Honestly

The part 5 OP will be a regular opening. But near the end, itll play but with omitted parts shown during it, making it a longer OP

 

[Tecl0n]

Call back to SDC. Alt Diego with The World stops the OP at some point.

 

[Ezalc]

We already had The World needlessly shoehorned in part 7 once, there's no need to do so again in a theoretical OP later on when he isn't the main villain. OP should focus on D4C's powers.

 

[Tizoc]

y'ALL do know Toonami be using King Crimson right?

Hayato, after picking up the phone,

Spoiler

looks up Josuke in the phone book, and calls him and immediately hangs up so that Josuke wakes up early, and causes him to arrive a few minutes earlier than he would've normally done.

Holy shit. I forgot Josuke arrives AFTER Rohan dies.
PREPTIMEBOYZ

 

[FlowersisBritish]

Ah man, i knew I shouldn't have clicked that spoiler. The best part of Part 4 has been how much stuff I forgot and got to experience again. That's kind of a rarity with such good things, almost like experiencing it for the first time again.

 

[Zonic]

Speaking of Jojo & Toonami, on December 17th, Toonami is going to air two episodes of Jojo that night. Episode 9, the end of Part 1, & Episode 10, the beginning of Part 2.

Also have a feeling Jojo will have a marathon of 7 episodes (so 4 through 10) near the end of Dec. since it's Xmas & New Years weekend & I don't see the other shows getting one.

Saw a post on another forum saying they were bored by BTD. Like, how?

 

[cntr]

Some people are cursed to have bad taste.

take pity on the fool and move on

 

[Hatty]

well the writers clearly reused a concept from Re: Zero, so how could they possibly find it exciting.

 

[cntr]

Is DTL is actually a human being??

 

[papertoonz]

just cut to sono chi no sadame during it

and everyone is flying high right

 

[Captain Rage Quit 69]

DTL really had me going for a moment, and not gonna lie for a second I was like "wait a minute I don't recall Resident Evil Zero having time-travel shenanigans."

He's doing it on purpose, right? Nobody's that obtuse without either being disgustingly ignorant or disgustingly taking Robbie Rotten's Perfect Villainy Class.

 

[cntr]

I get the impression that DTL really does have weird preferences, but he's trolling half the time.

Maybe.
