Don't ever change, Kamiya.
I wonder if Araki used this as a reference for how Koichi's stand awakened
A classic

Well that would have required Araki to have awakened a time travelling stand to travel a year or two into the future to read the doujin.
What if Araki is not a vampire but just has a special version of D4C that can also travel through time, thus allowing him to replace himself with younger versions of himself from parallel universes. The Araki that wrote parts 1-3 is the original Araki of this universe, then the Araki that wrote parts 4-6 is another, and then the Araki that wrote 7 and now 8 is yet another. This would explain why he never ages and why everything after part 3 is so different!

Hey if it works as a miracle weight-loss technique with Valentine...
That was just Jesus doing all the work, much like Jonathan does all the work for Dio.

Well 1-3 was originally planned as a trilogy so it would only make sense if Araki knew it was gonna be a trilogy.

Hellz yeah. Really pleased they're adding the fan requested characters who didn't make it into All-Star Battle.
Now confirm F.F. & Weather Report and all shall be good.

I was wondering how it'd even work, but then I read "summons his Ogre Street friends to help him in battle." That's actually a great idea for him.

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
RIP Joseph's OVA voice
I said I wouldn't get hype for this but goddammit.
That's the Viz media names, to avoid copyrights problems. Their real names are Oingo and Boingo.

I love picking Hercule in DBZ games and beating up Cell and Gogeta so Speedwagon beating up Giorno sounds good to me

lol at the subs changing Oingo and Boingo's names when everything in the episode says otherwise
This happened in All-Star Battle as well. For some reason, as long as the subtitles say differently, the characters are allowed to say the names that'd otherwise fall under copyright issues. For example, you can clearly hear the names of Aerosmith & Sticky Fingers being said by the VAs despite the subtitles saying "Li'l Bomber" & "Zipper Man".
Maybe that's why the dub has been taking a while since they have to figure out if they'd be allowed to say the original names in English or have to use the ones made for the US subtitles.
They do this all the time. Like last season they didn't bleep out the audio for Steely Dan and J.Geil.
It's just a risk assessment that you don't have to expunge all evidence. But here with text it just starts getting weird.
I can imagine the discussion went something like this:
Lawyer: you're really running a risk if you keep it Oingo Boingo.
Business: Okay. We'll change it. Oh, shit, there's some text, we don't have time to change it and hit the air date, can we leave that?
Lawyer: well, there's some risk there but it's probably okay.
Business: Yay!
That's how these things go.

The name changes are why I'll never buy anything of English in Jojo.
Although I did buy the Viz Part 3 translations WAY back in the day.

I think the assumption "I bet Aerosmith will let me do whatever I want" would end in tears.
Sure, but Oingo Boingo? Freaking J. Geil's band?
Can't imagine those retainers to still be running. Doesn't matter to me anyways, since the japanese synch has the original names.
It's just amusing.
I mean, Danny Elfman is still famous, so he'd probably care a little bit. It is funny to see the weird name changes or pulls from other things.

Read some of the JoJo oneshots like Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan, Deadman's Questions, Rohan at the Louvre and the Gucci ones.
Pretty good, worth reading.

I love those Gucci specials. Araki basically shoves a character into a random location and they discover the power of Gucci and friendship.
And space-time-bending.

Those band in dismay contain as much risk if you ask me.

I really liked Thus Spoke. I really want more of that.
No where better to start than the Louvre one since you can buy it in English.

That reminds me...why aren't there any 'Goofy sings' JoJo ANIME opS.

Yeah I liked Thus Spoke the best too, especially that confessional story.
One of the toughest deaths in all of JoJo.
And I'm always conflicted since I love Iggy, but Vanilla ice/cream are some of my favorites as well.
