A shame they couldn't do something among the lines of Omnibus releases or perhaps just a complete boxed set of all the volumes together.

Oh well, the fact they're getting re-released is still nice. If this meant we somehow got official translations of other parts (like Part 4), then that'd be awesome.
 
Reading the series for the first time, finished part four last night, probably my favorite so far for just how consistently dumb and hilarious it was. Enjoyed the change of pace from grand adventure to more a everyday life feel, even if a lot of it felt inconsequential by the end.

Starting part five tonight.

Edit: & to cross-post, DLC schedule for characters for All-Star Battle have been revealed:

May 13th: Old Joseph Joestar, Lisa Lisa, & Baoh
May 20th: Fugo, Anasui/Anastasia, & Cool/Vanilla Ice
May 27th: Iggy

No word on Shigekyo or Kira's date. Maybe they'll be released with Iggy since the previous weeks have 3 characters each.
 
Have they translated the colorized version of the manga? It's gorgeous!

I was also thinking the other day how cool it would be to bring back Kars.
He comes back to earth and faces bunch of dudes with stand ability. That'd be awesome.

I haven't seen any translations of the new coloured stuff. I know some people don't like how it looks but I think it's great. They're so vibrant, it suits JoJo perfectly.

All of these different translations of Avdol's "Trying to predict the future in front of a fortune teller? Isn't that rather foolish?" line are reeeeeally bugging me.

Its so annoying dealing with so many different translations.

The more I play of All Star Battle, the more I realise why some lines are familar. Especially since the SBR lines are "abstract" enough as it is.

Is Johhny's victory line "I'll only shoot if I have no doubts" a reference to Jesus Christ telling him "Johnny Joestar, if your heart waivers, do not shoot"?

I find it interesting, albeit not too surprising, how wildly he changed from the start of Part 1 to the end of it. I wonder if he had a very different idea of where to take the series initially, given it was relatively grounded until Dio became a vampire. Though the stone mask was there from the very start, so perhaps Zeppeli is more of a turning point there.

It's been a long journey but I finally reached Part 8. On average, how often does it update? Am I better off just waiting years till it's finished?

Gimme a ranking. If acceptable, you will be allowed to remain in this thread.

Lol. It's kinda hard to say. Parts 4 and 6 definitely left the biggest impressions on me, but they're all so good. For now it might be 4>6>2>7>5=3>1. Parts 2 and 7 might be interchangeable in my ranking.

The correct ranking is 4>2=7>6>3>1>5, but close enough. At least you have best Jojo on top.

Seriously though, to answer your question, Jojolion's updates have been pretty irregular, as far as I've noticed. I think it's supposed to be monthly, but that doesn't always pan out it seems. Scanlation-wise, that is.

I see, thanks. I guess it's worth checking to see if there's a new chapter up once a month.

Oh boy, so much wrong in this ranking

There is only one thing completely and utterly irrefutable in this ranking;

5 is last.

I mean, the rest is on point too, but I can at least see people ranking 3 and 1 differently, or rank 2 or 7 higher. But 5 has to be dead last.
