On the topic of JoJo, Richard Epcar is going to be at Anime Central next week. Seems like a perfect time to officially announce the JoJo dub.

That'd be nice! Personally, he was perfect as Old Joseph in the test dub; I had no complaints with the voice actors they picked, with the only suggestion I could make being about DIO's lack of accent. Granted, if we're really starting from Part 1, none of that's gonna matter for awhile.

Sub only for part 1 and 2, dub of 3 happening

Yeah, the voices themselves were fine (well Avdol's was a bit weird, but it wasn't bad, just a bit mismatched) and I dug how the guy who voiced Batsu from GitS and BO-BOBO was chosen for Old Joseph, so you know he'll have fun with the sillier moments in the series.

Also yes, despite having some great voices in Part 2's sub, I still wouldn't mind it getting a (hopefully good) dub. I'm sure it won't top the sub, but if the voices are right, I totally wouldn't mind watching S1 a third time.

Season 1 (which includes part 2) was the listed product under the amazon leak

Part 2 is much more popular in America then it is in Japan, so I doubt you'd see them skip it

Also noticed the publisher is Warner, which again handles the video releases of Viz's stuff.

& now that I think about it, I wonder if they'll use the names that the Crunchyroll subs had.
 
Part 1 is okay but it's only really good for setup, Dio memes, Speedwagon, and Zeppeli's hat.

Also worth noting that listings for sub-only have been changed in the past following a dub announcement.

Yeah, Part 1 is easily one of the weaker parts of Jojo. Not BAD, mind you, it's more worth watching for the setup, but it's not as memorable compared to future parts. Part 2 (& some others) is when things truly get "bizarre".

Part 4 is still my personal favorite. Part 7 is god like though

Parts 2 & 4 are probably my favorites because they feel like evolved, more realized forms of their previous parts (1 & 3), i.e the hamon and stands were introduced, then the following parts flesh them out so much more, living up to the "bizarre adventure" in the title. Edit: wwm0nkey's statement above as well.

I won't say anything else about Part 4 (aside from it's slightly longer than Part 3, so it'll probably get split into 2 seasons as well) since I'm sure it'll get animated in 2016 once Part 3 is finished.

Would be cool to see it for the Fall 2015 season

If you're going to license JoJo for a physical release, there's really no logical reason NOT to do a dub. The only remote possibility is that they plan to dub Part 3 and not 1 & 2.

Thus far part 2 has been my favorite because of Joseph Joestar and his endless shenanigans. Part 3 has had some really really good stuff with some stands and has some hilarious troll-worthy episodes.

Unlike part 3 I know next to nothing about part 4 so I look forward going into it blind.

I've known next to nothing about any of the parts, so I've been blind this entire time. I'm glad that I didn't have any real prior knowledge of the manga or show. It's been quite enjoyable, including some of the stuff even from part 1. Like
the whole vampire bit.

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
So yeah, Splatoon is awesome.
A shame my internet is garbage and it died on me. Probably from too much of it... fuck Uverse.

I might try it tomorrow, but I'm not in the mood now & my internet was getting rather slow for some reason (I blame dad's gf's kids spending the night & using the internet).

Going to get up in seven hours and play more Splatoon. Considering I've got nothing else planned in the early morning I might as well deploy gifs as well.

I was going to try it, but it seems like their test server is undergoing maintenance right now. I'll probably try again tomorrow afternoon.
