I agree that the fights were more interesting (Scary Monsters in particular) especially after Part 6, but the last fight with Valentine is one of my favorites.
Still kind of disappointed about In A Silent Way. Such a cool design wasted on Echoes Pt. 2's power copied.
I think every single animal that has ever appeared has died, save some of the horses in SBR and the dog in JoJolion, demise pending.
But specific animals? Like a dozen dogs, an orangutan, a bird, a cat, two rats and a bunch of horses.
I think the turtle technically survives. But not the Part 4 one.

Yeah, the entire point of that turtle was to show Crazy Diamond's healing.
Coco Jumbo wasn't as lucky. Sure technically the turtle is alive by the end of part 5, but that's Polnareff. Coco Jumbo's soul went into Polnareff, meaning that it died in his body.

Man in the Mirror was pretty damn clear in the Italian edition (the only one I've read).
I didn't like part 5 much back when it was being serialized, but I re-read it later on and appreciated it much more.
Giorno may not speak much, but I found him far from plain and boring, and almost all the fights are fantastic. Giorno vs. Black Sabbath or King Crimson vs. Metallica are among my favorite showdowns in the entire series.

The fella must've lived a long life by then, it's a sucky death but it lived its turtle life to the fullest before then at least.

When did he ever kill a cat? I dont remember, im still in the middle of part 6 so maybe its in part 7 or 8?
Gatta, the user of Stray Cat. It does get reincarnated as a plant but it still did technically die.

Oh right I forgot probably cause stray cat was mostly a plant.
His name was "Tama", as far as I know. "Gatta" sounds like it came from an awkward translation of the Italian version.

I always thought it was just called Stray Cat.
That's the name of the Stand.

I thought it was a whole Anubis or Weather Report thing where the character has the same name as their stand.
Only ones that's true for so far are Foo Fighters and Sugar Mountain. We know Weather Report is Pucci's twin brother (and therefore presumably also named Pucci).
Pretty sure that's not an actual name and just how the cat plant was called in the Italian translation. Or I'd like to know what the source is.

I looked it up on the wikia and it says gatta. It probably says it on the Stand stat page.

Well I cant read japanese, so I dunno what the stand stat page calls him.

Does Milder do the MAGNETIC SHOCKWAVE WITH CARS in the manga too?

Nope sadly, she only does that in HTTF

Figures... the battle was in underwater.

But dio stopped hating at the end of Part one when he wanted Jonathan's body cause Dio thought his body was the most perfect.
To incredibly homoerotic in part 6. Bless you, Pucci.

So how is Araki gonna spin part 8 to make it related to Dio or something? That's what's annoying me on parts 4 onwards, though the annoyance varies (tolerable in 4 for instance).

Are you sure you want us to tell you? Cause it gets super spoiler.

I'm not really stingy on spoilers. Hell I already knew what happened to 4 before reading the clear scanlations 
Wait, what, you mean Araki is really gonna make 8 Dio-related too?

No at the end of part 6 stuff happens and theres a universe reset and part 7 and 8 are in a different universe so in part 7 there is an alternate universe version of Dio named Diego but hes not the main villain of 7. So part 7 and 8 dont hsve any real relation to Dio Brando.I'm not really stingy on spoilers. Hell I already knew what happened to 4 before reading the clear scanlations

This is not really true, in the end of part 7
another Dio is pulled into the world (no pun intended), and he actually has The World stand rather than the Dinosaur stand.

You mean diego brando from another universe with the world?
You caught me before my edit. Yes, with The World existing in part 7, I don't think we can say that it has no relation to Dio. I might miss some information, though.
That's not Dio. It's another Diego wielding an alternate of The World. The last time we see vampire Dio is in Part VI flashbacks. Everything from SBR onward is an alternate timeline without a Dio Brando.
As to the antagonist question of Jojolion, I think it's save to say that he hasn't even been introduced yet. Since 8 mirrors Part 4 and Kira was introduced circa halfway through, I think it's safe to say the same will be true for Part 8.

Well yeah I knew about it, I just though since diego is alt universe dio there would be another universe of SBR with Diego with The World just like i love to imagine another version of the regular universe where Dio has scary monster and fights Jotaro as a giant T-rex
75% of the way through Stone Ocean now. I really like the characters, and the plot progression is actually pretty interesting. I'm having a real hard time trying to keep up with some of the stand powers though. Araki kind of went nuts with these after a certain point. Jolyne is a fun protagonist, really likeable.
I like that after the whole Abdul thing in Part 3, araki has to designate that characters are DEFINITELY DEAD by showing their ghost ascending to heaven. It's pretty funny.
I also think it's pretty funny that for a while Dio wasn't really doing anything expressly evil, he was just hanging out with Pucci, reading books in bed and building model boats.

Part 6 is the part I'm most excited for should it ever get animated. It's one of my favorite parts of the franchise, but some fights are just all over the place and neary incomprehensible.
At this rate it's only gonna take about 15 more years so at least I'll still be alive to see it.

Oh I know 7's story and 7 and 8 being the remake universe, but technically "Diego" still sorta is "Dio" if you scrunch a bit, and hey an alternate him even has The World for pandering!
That's why I am wondering if 8 will pull another Dio.
I doubt it. There hasn't been any hint of him appearing again in this part.
I hope we're done with Dio for good. He had a good run.
zedreamcast
Member
I thought we were done with him at the end of part 3, but Dio always seems to have some presence in every single part so far
It also wouldn't make any sense since Part 8 is a Part 4 remix and Dio isn't in Diamond is Unbreakable (outside of some second-hand stories).
I highly doubt we'll see OG Dio ever again in JoJo.
