What do I watch straight after I finish JoJo? There's OVAs + 2000 + Stardust Crusader. So... which one goes first?

Got to EP 16 of Zipang.
Great watch.
One thing that irks me is that the Mirai seem to tell everything about itself to almost every japanese they meet, but they are very slow to actually communicate with US troops, and when they do it's usually in threats and warnings.
It never occurred to them to try a more friendly tone?
Added to watch list.

So decided to go with Jormungand and the first two episodes carry a lot of promise that it will at least be an amusing ride and perhaps even a memorable one. Really do like how it distinguish itself from what i saw in Black Lagoon with some very adorable silly. So far all of it can be credited to the one wonderful lady with the delightful smile
Rly?
It comes across as really creepy...and it seems 90% of women in that anime share the exact same smile/mouth.
And the thing about her being an arms dealer that can somehow launch 100 satellites in orbit and hack/listen the military is totally whack. Not to mention her "plan".

Not 'somehow' - her father seems to be the richest motherf*cker in the universe. Arms-trade was just one of many things the entire corporation handled. If that's too unbelievable, then fine.
AND WHAT HAVE YOU GOT AGAINST WOMEN ME AND RAH LOVE?! FIRST SATSUKI AND NOW KOKO?!

I don't know about that. Is is kind of insane, though. But then again...
Spoiler
It also does the whole gun-trading and other bits well too (characterisation, development, war, business etc...) To rub it off as just an action anime is spitting on its grave xD
But the action parts ARE done brilliantly.

Like I said, the crew of the Mirai is running on insane troll logic.
Really the only worthwhile thing to this anime is the Mirai kicking the ever living shits out of the naval aviation torpedo squadron that tries to attack them.
Only one deck cannon indeed.
There is the fire. Go jump in it. Now.
Zipang is better than 90% of the anime out there. Fact.

I reserve my love for characters that are more than a shallow, walking schtik.
Also I keep it safely locked away so it drips constantly, instead of flooding out and soaking other peoples shoes.

90% of all anime is craptastic. Not much of an achievement there.
And I stand by my opinion that the Mirai crew is running on insane troll logic. They are always about trying to minimize casualties and rescuing lifes, yet team up with WW2 Japan ... because reasons?
Okay, I admit I am a bit jaded because I know how the manga goes on compared to where the anime ends, but if they TRULY wanted to minimize casualties, they should go scuttle their damn ship and simply migrate into the japanese society (being japanese should make that not much of a task ...) and let history make its thing. And if they TRULY wanted to change history for the better, then joining WW2 Japan alongside with the equivalent of the Deathstar is the LAST thing any sane person would do, least of all any sane person trying to minimize human loss, because history knows the japanese of that time we anything but a peaceful bunch.

Stardust I think as it a continuation of the anime you are already watching.

Our love for the these ladies is unique and sadly not everyone will be able to understand it. All we can do is move on and dodge their lack of understanding ![]()

WATCH THE SPOILERS DAMMIT!
I'm still watching.
And so far they haven't joined anyone, altough they are closer to Japan, being japanese and everything.

If everything I loved had to be at the standards of Ghost in the Shell I might have just stopped watching anime months ago.
Besides, there is value in almost everything. Those 'shallow, walking schtiks' are freaking awesome. They are characters I enjoyed more because of their simplicity rather than searching for complexity that really shouldn't exist in an anime like Kill la Kill.
Then again, I find I'm a lot more adaptable than most people. And it works for the better. If that were not the case, then forget enjoying something as fabulous and epic as JoJo's Bizzare Adventure xD
@Rah

*sniffs* I love you bro :'-)
P.S I found your wallpaper

I enjoy shallow stuff too occasionally...
I just don't obsess over it.
Healthy love. Not creepy/blind love.

Don't you agree Rea Sanka ("Sankarea" if you want to check it out)? Yes, yes you do.

@Lotion.
I tend to obsess over anything I love. LOTR, ASOIAF, Foundation etc... shallow, comedy, deep whatever, if I LIKE it I LOVE it. It's a side effect of having my head in the clouds all the time. And it's only creepy if you don't agree. If I knew more about 40K Lore, I bet we'd both gush about things that everybody else would dismiss as dumb xD
I think one day I'll end up in a mental institution. But oh well! xD

Btw guys, if you want a romance anime of the different sort, check out Sankarea:
Guy with zombie obsession wants to resurrect his dead cat, makes zombie elixir out of extremely poisonous plants. Idolized girl suffering under a repressive father is not entirely disinclined to being a zombie out of depression. Father finds out, wants to imprison daughter for life and dispose of zombie loving guy. Daughter drinks said poisonous elixir in a suicide attempt, then the day later falls down a cliff and gets impaled on a tree during a scuffle with opressive father, dies, then gets reborn as zombie. Guy who loves zombie now has a zombie.
The whole thing is so deliciously macabre I can't believe people in here aren't all over it already.
F U Clannad, zombie romance anime FTW!
