YOU'LL NEVER CATCH ME GADGET
A lot of it has seeped into the public/anime consciousnesses due to cultural osmosis. There are segments of Part III I would call spoilers if it wasn't for the fact that its like 20 years old and has been parodied, memed and referenced to hell and back so that even someone who has never seen/read Part III probably knows what I'm talking about.
Part I
one BIG SPOILER
I said a friend thank you very much.
I will let my friend know post haste.

Some things to note about Jojo:
* Many of the things affiliated with JJBA don't actually appear in Part 1.
* The "You thought it was ___, but it was me, Dio!" scene happens in the very first episode, for those keeping an eye out for it.

So I've missed the last month or so of Toonami due to work and traveling. Exactly how confused am I going to be by Gundam?

A little. This episode is basically the transition episode from the arc you missed to the final arc of the series.
All you need to know is that Tekkadan got roped into a revolution thrown by Space!Costco and Kudelia's assistant died.
Not too much.
They spent a lot of time fucking around in Space Costco, some violent protests happened, Kudelia lost her helper who was really a traitor.
Now Kudelia is all "I'm going to try and be useful now".
Anything else guys?
She's putting on Fumitan's charm and getting ready for the backroom poltical wheeling and dealing stuff.
This is not the first time they've done this with a riche naive princess type. The weird thing is though that in IBO it's kinda backwards. The reason why Gallerjorn and her dad want her dead at the beginning is because she's supposed to be a revolutionary type thinker on Mars...when all she's done is read a little about Joan of Arc and mentioned it at the party. Now she's actually a god damned revolutionary leading a movement in the colonies and not Mars.

So I made a big change in my life guys.
I switched to the black theme on Neogaf.
I'm willing to admit I was wrong.

It's a better name than "Dort"

Google suggests to me that it is some type of cake
No that's Savarin
Dort sounds like a terrible name for a final boss in a JRPG.
In IBO's case, it's a group of space colonies. So you have Dort 1 or Dort 4.
This probably sounded better to Japanese writers.
It does rhyme with Zort.
This image perfectly sums up the current arc of Gundam.Apparently dort was an automobile manufacturer. Have no idea why it would go out of business. Look out how it traverses those stairs!
I imagine part of the demand was for Part 3 to air, so I'm hopeful that Part 1 & 2 will do well. Might not do OPM numbers, but I would assume it'd always be above 1 million or at least 900k.
If anything, it's more of "when" than "if" at this rate, especially considering Part 3 is one of the more popular parts in the US.

So, do any of you guys happen to have a Funimation Now Subscription? If you do, would you recommend it? I've been on the fence about signing up, especially since they made that partnership with Crunchyroll.
holy crap, gaf is being slow tonight. Sure hope it's fixed by the time Toonami starts, or else we're gonna have a lot of delayed reactions.
I don't have one, but based on the Crunchyroll partnership, it sounds like if you want to watch dubbed anime, then go for Funimation, but if you wanna watch subbed, especially as it's airing in Japan, go for Crunchyroll. Though I think if Funimation licenses an anime, it'll still be both if they do a simulcast/simuldub. Someone with a membership might be able to clear things up, but that's the best to my knowledge.
So the real question is if Part 4 will be aired, which needs to be the case. Basically, I'm hoping for JoJo to remain a Toonami mainstay like Dragon Ball is right now.
Gaf just went down for a few minutes, but now seems to be working better.
Pretty much. I would imagine they might take breaks between each part so then that way, Viz can take time to finish up the dubs while letting Toonami air some other shows.
Wait I thought DST always ended on the same day? Am I stupid?
I mean, Viz Media has been working on the Part 3 dub for a while. I wouldn't put it past them to have the Part 4 dub ready by the time Part 3 finishes airing on Toonami.
