Rightstuf says the release date is now 8/8. Ugh, I wonder what happened to cause the 2 week delay.

Wow, the end to part IV was fantastic.
I felt sorry for Kira at the end, he just wanted to live like a plant
His death was gruesome as hell but the way the scene played out was brilliant.
I feel so sad for Hayato and his mother at the end a very sad end to the story of a resilient young man. He was fantastic.
I really wish they fleshed out relations between a few characters some more, one example being Rohan and Ghost girl. Especially after the revelation she saved his life as a child.
I also wish we saw more of old man JoJo, by far my favourite JoJo and i'd have loved more interactions between him and Josuke. I also loved how it was Jotaro who got in the last hit on Kira, his yare yare daze after he froze time was brilliant.
Overall I'd rank the anime parts as III > II > IV > I. Part II ranks second mostly for my favourite JoJo, SHIIIIIIIZAAAAAA and the glorious climax of the final encounter.
Hyped for Part V, any idea of when to expect it?

Woot I am hyped! Heard Polnareff returns, definitely my favourite character from part III - his encounter with vanilla ice was brilliant.
Overall the cast from Part IV is my favourite, everyone was memorable. Kira is definitely the stand out villain from the series thus far, that's no disrespect to DIO. Kira's motivations of just wanting a normal life and his approach to the ordeals was brilliant.

You're going to love the part 6 villain. And yeah Polnareff returns

Yeah, the Part IV cast (as well as their Stands) are my favorite, so far.
Part 4 is among my favorites because just like Part 2, it's a great evolution of the powers introduced in the previous part, plus the cast is great & Kira is a great villain with an awesome power.
I also had the strangest urge to go back & rewatch the Italian food episode of Part 4. Still hilarious, & I cannot wait for it to hit Toonami so I can see the reactions.......in 2020.....A shame it's going to take YEARS for the Part 4 dub to be released, let alone hit blu-ray.

This is great.
Also the second OP is my favourite from the series.
Edit: Also what was the deal with Josuke saving himself as a child in the past? I'm guessing Araki's early idea for Bites the dust involved sending Josuke into the past.

What is up with Jojo's pants/butt? It's like Araki didn't even bother lol.
I see you've never actually read Jojo before.
It's always weird when I think of Dio relative to the other major antagonists. It's like, here you have this amazing bastard of a villain, undeniably iconic in all of manga, and yet when I get right down to it, he doesn't even place in my top three JoJo antags. It's a credit to Araki that his chief heel is overwhelmingly great and yet still can't even take the bronze in my (and plenty of people's) personal rankings.

Pucci wouldn't be Pucci without Dio-sama though...I can't wait to experience Valentine if he's really that damn good.

Maybe he's not in my top 3 but he's easily number 4.
Diego was amazing in Steel Ball Run <3
Funny Valentine gave Dio a run for his money. He was just so good as a villian

Yeah, put me in as a big fan of Funny Valentine.
He's just great to see get more and more involved with the race as Johnny and Gyro get closer to the goal, and
but let me tell you just how much of a treat it was when [part 7 endgame spoilers]

the entire D4C arc was an epic read. Especially Ball Breaker and the final confrontation with Johnny.
but let me tell you just how much of a treat it was when [part 7 endgame spoilers]
Diego Brando from another world showed up with THE WORLD. I don't care what anyone says, that was a really fun sendoff for Dio.
is it blasphemous to say I like
Diego
Wonder how representative that is of his ZA WARUDO.
Also better not be steamroller.
I secretly think the same thing. It was great to constantly see him throughout the
race as a competitor on an equal level to Johnny and Gyro instead of an all powerful villain

Nope, at least not for me
Not at all.

They're releasing some of those Banpresto mini-figures based on Jojolion, sold exclusively at the Jojo festival next month. It's Josuke, Josefumi, and Kira. They're 5000¥, and so fabulous. Also, very expensive.

Looking real nice.

Does Rohan's last pose remind anyone else of Joseph and his clackers?

Gio too in one of the early chapters

OVA looks pretty good! Jojolion/SBR art is totally doable
Eh I dunno, the horses of SBR are gonna be tricky. They're probably going to be CG.

Dr. Movie handled horse animation-cycles fine in HxH. Would it really be that much trouble for the modern-day David Pro?

OH that looks nice in motion.

Do we even have a way to see the Rohan OVA outside of...ways and means.

Rohan ova is blu ray, right? I have a feeling it will fetch a high price on auction sites/second hand.

Oh I'm sure, but it would just be cool to own. Plus, Japan and US share same region code for BDs.
