[Captain Rage Quit 69]

do any of you read the title as HORHAY HOESTAR

>Not Jōji Joestar

 

[cntr]

"Jorge" is supposed to be Italian right

so why isn't it "Giorghe"? Araki got it right with "Giorno"

Hoho's Bizzare Adventure?

Spanish

 

[Captain Rage Quit 69]

I believe it's supposed to be Spanish, but after 3 minutes on Google I can confirm it's also Portuguese.

Jorginho when

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Are any of the mods fans of Jojo?

EmCeeGramr I believe, since he pops up both here and the anime thread and talked about being caught up to the manga.

 

[cntr]

I mean yeah it's Spanish in real life, but in the book, it's supposed to be an Italian nickname for George.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

George is called Jorge in the novel because he grew up in the Canary Islands instead of in England. So his name is actually Spanish.

 

[cntr]

Wait, really? But that makes no sense, because the pronunciation doesn't work anymore

 

[Captain Rage Quit 69]

Of all the things to question about the book, it's this.

I'm surprised you haven't been driven insane yet.

HoHo's Bizarre Adventure

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Wait, really? But that makes no sense, because the pronunciation doesn't work anymore

A town fucking grows legs and starts walking in this book. Mars is populated with 36 copies of the same super vampire. Jesus was actually Dio. The pronunciation of a character's name making no sense is the least of this book's problem.

 

[cntr]

But the pronunciation not making sense is the worst part

e: Also, Jesus wasn't Dio. Jesus was Jonathan's head sewn onto Dio's body.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

Wait, really? But that makes no sense, because the pronunciation doesn't work anymore

I mean, that's the book in general. Reminder that this is a thing in Jorge:

Then, Joji incorporates the original Kars into his chest (??), which makes all the Kars form a bridge (????) in order to reach Ultimate Dio (who has been joined by all of the evil Kars and all of the other main villains), in order to defeat him once and for all.

 

[Killer Queen]

EmCeeGramr I believe, since he pops up both here and the anime thread and talked about being caught up to the manga.

So what you're saying is, we should petition

Spoiler

(harass)

them to get Killer Queen a matching tag

 

[Semblance]

It doesn't work like that.

 

[Killer Queen]

It doesn't work like that.

I know...

 

[JadedWriter]

Why does Kars look like a middle aged woman in Jorge Joestar?

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Former American President Funny Valentine : The character of the same name from Steel Ball Run. In Jorge Joestar, he possesses the Stand Singing in the Rain which seems to allow him to fly. Not to be mistaken with his counterpart from the SBR universe. I’m not sure if he’s the Valentine from Joji’s universe, or from the original universe, because yes, there was apparently a Funny Valentine in the original universe. He has a son, named Funnier Valentine, and a grandson, named The Funniest Valentine.

Funnier Valentine : Funny Valentine’s son. He possesses the Stand Rear Window, which allows him to connect windows across space and travel through them.

The Funniest Valentine : Funnier Valentine’s son. In this iteration of reality, it is he who possesses the Stand Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap.

can't make this up

If it makes you feel better, use the Portuguese pronunciation, it actually sounds like "Jo"rge.

 

[Killer Queen]

Man I really hope part 5 copies Part 4's look in the anime.

Also lol at the gang getting put in a god damn turtle for "safe transportation"

 

[RubberLuffy]

I would live in a turtle

 

[Killer Queen]

I would live in a turtle

I mean, if it's entirely safe and its got a nice ass room like that one I wouldn't be opposed either. Perfect hideout, having no windows would suck though.

 

[zeemumu]

"Let's Go Eat Some Italian Food" is one of the best episodes I've ever seen.

 

[Style]

Is this where I admit that Jorge Joestar is amazing?

 

[Captain Rage Quit 69]

Is this where I admit that Jorge Joestar is amazing?

I mean, if you mean "amazing at being an awful JoJo fanfic" then by all means.

 

[Killer Queen]

"Let's Go Eat Some shitty $30 Italian Food" is one of the best episodes I've ever seen.

My favorite episode of the neo

 

[convo]

I should probablly reread Part 5. Having it in color is nice but these new translation shouldn't be ignored.

 

[cntr]

that translation made me lose my consciousness

 

[RecRoulette]

In that case, I'll need a checklist of the weird shit that goes on in Jorge Joestar.

BTW should I add Fugo and Koichi to the part 5 anime OT's character list? Ya know for shits and giggles?

Put Fugo in the OP then remove him when the appropriate time comes

I should probablly reread Part 5. Having it in color is nice but these new translation shouldn't be ignored.

They both look fine to me. Which one's the redo?

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Put Fugo in the OP then remove him when the appropriate time comes

and also when King C is revealed just remove the middle half of the post in the OP

 

[remz]

lol this is the kinda shit i think about when someone says teh part 5 cast is boring or part 5 is the worst, the worst shitty fan translation... maybe

 

[cntr]

Are you serious?

 

[Tizoc]

and also when King C is revealed just remove the middle half of the post in the OP

Those would be fugo and koichi section

 

[Ezalc]

lol this is the kinda shit i think about when someone says teh part 5 cast is boring or part 5 is the worst, the worst shitty fan translation... maybe

Meh, it's not that far off. Part 5 cast isn't boring, Giorno sure as hell is though.

 

[remz]

Are you serious?

Do you have the conscious to the explain further

 

[RecRoulette]

Are you serious?

I trust my conscious on this one.

 

[Killer Queen]

Giorno isn't boring, he's just not super ridiculous.

 

[cntr]

Giorno's subtle.

 

[RubberLuffy]

Those are two different translations of the same lines, but the one on the right is very, very wrong. Notice how half of them aren't even saying even remotely the same thing. That's how the old Part 5 translation gets you, it looks "right", good grammar, whatever, but it's really shitty. That set should have included the old translation of a map of Italy that had like...French locations on it, because the translators just had no idea what the fuck they were doing.

Also Daxing Dan put up the new translation of the last few Green Day chapters, so if you want properly translated 8 page MUDAMUDA now is your chance.

 

[Killer Queen]

Giorno's subtle.

Pretty much, and super chilled out compared to Jonathan or Josuke. He's a lot of fun though I think and probably the most grounded thus far (I'm only on part 5)

 

[Debirudog]

Giorno isn't boring, he's just not super ridiculous.

he drank purified piss. Of course he's ridiculous.

and then the whole muda pages.

 

[remz]

Giorno is just following the tried n' true Jojo's Protagonist Formula (tm) odd numbered Jojos are serious straight men (johnathan, jotaro, giorno, johnny) and even numbered jojos are whacky hotheads (joseph, josuke, jolyne, jo2uke)

Gappy is breaking the mold a little bit. He's just a weirdo. Not really hot-headed.

Though I guess he's technically not just one JoJo.

 

[Debirudog]

Johnny, Jotaro and Giorno kinda slip up sometimes and reveal comedic moments.

 

[cntr]

Jolyne and Gappy are a mix of goofy and serious. Johnny's serious, but that's because he's the straight man to Gyro, and that makes him hilarious

 

[Killer Queen]

super ridiculous

 

[cntr]

molto ridicolo

 

[Matsukaze]

I expect that when the anime airs, some peoples' heads will turn when they see Gold Experience suggestively draping itself over Giorno. That'll be good times.

 

[Debirudog]

Everyone gonna compare Vento Aureo to FFXV.
