Random hymnos from the art book saved me again. Hehehe...

[Mr.House]

My top 3  Jojos too, but i wouldn't necessarily say the others are scrub tier as they're still Jojos, though less glorious Jojos.

 

On the same page, in terms of villains Diavolo is the worst villain of the manga. Scrub tier ambition, troglodyte, and fubar logic all rolled into one. Cool powers though.

DIo, Funny Valentine, Pucci and Kira where the best villians.

Ohhhh one I haven't seen. Gratias

 

Fun fact for those would be image posters, the list of characters on my profile page doubles as a list of characters I like seeing, just so we don't get a bunch of the same, heck maybe you guys can find things I haven't seen before.

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure StarDust Crusaders

 

Review and Reflection.

Spoiler

Musical Accompaniment

I'm not the type to be overly enthused by what everyone likes, or tries to shove in my face. So when this thread went on and on about this weird Jojo thing. With its unorthodox artstyle, gratuitous if funny engrish, and this odd fascination with some Chippendale's reject called Dio or whatever. I got it was crazy and stuff, and it might be something I would like. I just didn't feel up to it. However never underestimate when I'll actually decide to sit down and watch something. Because it tends to be as eccentric as everything else I do. Having recently sworn off Channel Awesome and many other content providers (The Completionist especially) for being pathetic, greedy, or downright drama queens *Spit* I have indeed found myself with a substantial lack of content to fill up my time online. So that's when I finally decided to give Jojo a shot. Since reading a short summary mentioned it had Vampires. And hey, I like Vampires. So let's give this Jojo thing a shot. Who knows I may even like it.

 

It's been like 2 weeks since I started and already I can tell Jojo is going to be a big vacuum on my wallet. Thanks guys.

 

Jojo turned into a massive favorite of mine fast. Though if this review seems like it's missing finer details, I just finished Stardust Crusaders today. Also remember, the volumes of the Jojo Manga are coming out Monthly, and that's how I will be reading it.

 

So I'm gonna break this down into four sections. One for each arc.

 

Part 1: Phantom Blood

Phantom Blood is the beginning of the titular Bizarre Adventure of Jojo (and all other Jojo's). Jojo in this case being Jonathon Joestar, a super ripped archaeologist that's on a quest to slay his former Adopted Vampire Brother, Dio Brando. Who was a big ****** that killed his dog, and made out with his girlfriend. Along with him is Speedwagon, a former London Ruffian who is awesome, and Zeppli, a dapper martial artist that teaches Jojo the art of Hamon, a martial art useful for fighting Vampires.

Part 1 is good. But it doesn't reach the crazy awesome levels of Parts 2 and 3. And Jonathon is the same. He's not a bad protagonist, but he's not later Jojo's.

 

Part 2: Battle Tendency

It was at this time when I really started getting into Jojo. Right when Joseph whipped out the Tommy Gun, I was hooked. It was just so over the top and so amazing I couldn't help but be sucked in.

Part 2 is about the arguably most popular Jojo. Joseph Joestar. Jonathons Grandson, and all around badass, and his battle against The Pillar Men, super powerful male strippers that made the Stone Masks responsible for Vampires, created for the sole purpose for their leader Kars to conquer the sun and ascend to GODHOOD! How can you not get sucked in by that premise alone?

In the fight against the Pillar Men, Jojo is teamed with Caesar. Zeppli's grandson who's a bubble blowing, bandana wearing, badass who will make you shed manly tears after the show is done, Lisa-Lisa, A master of Hamon and one dynamite gal, and Stroheim! A CYBER-NAZI WHO YELLS EVERYTHING HE SAYS AT MULTIPLE VARIABLES!

Part 2 is amazing. The fights, the music, the story, the characters. It is a damn good ride.

 

Part 3: Stardust Crusaders

Season 1

The return of Dio, the introduction of Stands, and the greatest road trip of all time. This is Stardust Crusaders.

After 100 years Dio has returned, and it makes the Jojo of this story, Jotaro Kujo mother afflicted with a bad case of Dio. But fret not. Old Man Joseph is around to make it all better. After defeating 2 of Dio's assassins who they are joined by after said defeat, a French Fencer on a quest for revenge named Polnareff, and a cherry licking pretty boy named Kakoyin. Along with Joesph's BFF, a fortune teller named Avdol. They set off for Egypt by plane. Which doesn't go so well and they crash. So this quest from Japan to Egypt is one that will be done on land, and sea as the the greatest road trip of all time. To finally end Dio and his curse upon the Joestar Family.

Part 3 is a villain of the week show. And there's nothing wrong with that. It allows for some creative villains and scenarios to occure. And in Stardust you can really see everyone grow more as friends. This might just be the most bromanciest anime around, and it's great.

 

Part 3: Stardust Crusaders

Season 2

This season broke my hear you bastards. So Jotaro and friends have arrived in Egypt, and now must proceed to Cairo, all while combating more of Dios followers and their stands.

Now joining the group is Iggy, a small yet awesome dog who you'll grow to love, and then subsequently have your heart stomped on because of it.

When you start this season, remember. The Magnet episode may fool you. But this is a feels trip through and through. Manly tears will be shed.

But yes. It broke my heart and made me cry. I love it for doing that. Means I got really invested in what was going on. So that was top.

 

Final Thoughts

I loved going through Jojo and it makes me sad I'm finished. It was action packed, funny, heartfelt, manly, and just crazy awesome in every sense of those words. I loved it.

There I wrote a long review. Am I cool?

[CrazyRah]

You guys just wanna explode Shirou's spine on her loli pumps.

Told you Jojo is one of the greatest things the Japanese have blessed the world with.

 

Well...

 

Not really the "Japanese."

 

Since Araki isn't from this world at all.

Done with HxH

 

Watch it

 

Don't be a scrub

 

 

Alright a few more words won't hurt. It's been an epic journey with highs and lows but it's been a genuine pleasure to know that every night for two months that I've had something truly worth the time to watch waiting for me, especially after days where work has been dreadfully dull. HxH is by no means a perfect show but for 148 episodes it managed to bring something interesting with it and for the episodes that felt a bit mediocre I always knew that shortly something epic would happen. The Ant arc is the embodiment of awesome in so many aspects. Action, characters, story, antagonists (KIIIIIIIING), Komugi and how to reward the viewer for paying attention to exposition and build up.

 

HxH is in the top 10 alright, where I'll need to think about..

 

Same thoughts here.

 

It has its ups and downs but overall it's one amazing show and probably one of, if not the best shounen out there.

 

If everything was up to Ant Arc standards it would have replaced Brotherhood at #2 loooong ago.

 

King was just one of the best things about f*cking anime let alone his role in HxH.

 

Seriously.

 

Anime's been pretty dull ever since I finished it with no more 'greats' to watch.

 

I need Jojo part 4 already.

 

Oh? Don't you mean Komgui?

*looks towards Sim*

[TheClonesLegacy]

Sim you lotioned those pics from earlier. You owe me like 2 pics of any of my actual Waifus for the mental anguish.

[Vroom Vroom]

Hey Mr. No Touch, have you watched Daily Lives of High School Boys? I feel like you might have, but I can't remember. If you haven't then you should give that a watch. Maximum funny!

They worked fine.

 

I knew beforehand they would break after a while.

 

It was on purpose.

 

I swear.

Nope I haven't xD

 

But I'll bookmark it tho'

 

I'm not in the mood for a highschool anime atm.

 

But I will when I am xD

[TheOgre]

never seen it but I'll take your word for it that they goofed up. darn you fairy taaaaaaail! *waves fist*

 

If you want to see how silly it is.. Don't read the spoiler below

 

Spoiler

So the old man that trained Natsu, "master' makarov tried to negotiate with Zeref. Didn't go so well. He was about to kill the old man, but out of NOWHERE a FT mage just pops up, saves the old man and does a super charged teleport away. 

 

What a goddamn tease. Very few characters die in the series. Only bad things really happen in the past or flashbacks.

 

The salt levels were high reading that.

Ah. The mental anguish.
