Someone reset this universe please.

My favorite is the Tweet that is literally just [I][B]Meme[/B][/I] And then hashtags the show.

[QUOTE]According to him, he was initially stumped on how to end episode 6 after the audio climax for Poco's scene and struggled to come up with a natural lead into the ending credits. Then Iwanami listened to the beginning notes of "Roundabout" and was dumbstruck at how well the pacing fit with the episode's cliffhanger without editing. He considers it a strange and happy coincidence.[/QUOTE]

Do people not realise how old Part 1 actually is Do they think it's recent or something? These jokes make it sound like that, fuck

[QUOTE=Nickolas;51250628]Do people not realise how old Part 1 actually is Do they think it's recent or something? These jokes make it sound like that, fuck[/QUOTE] to be fair it wasn't until this year when JoJo finally caught on in the US.

[QUOTE=Durrsly;51250752]to be fair it wasn't until this year when JoJo finally caught on in the US.[/QUOTE] I didn't actually get into it until recently, but hasn't it been starting to catch on since mid-late 2014? Because wasn't that when Stardust Crusaders first started being simulcasted on Crunchyroll?

So is Hamon not a thing in part 3?

[QUOTE=The Civ;51246612]Ah, I see. Didn't know some of the "censored" names would get that ridiculous. It's definitely so awful that it's kind of hilarious in it's own right though.[/QUOTE] This is kind of weird for me because this is the first time I've read the manga and watched an anime before the dub came out. The only other anime I watched as it aired was Space Dandy, and that had the dub and sub released pretty much simultaneously. So I know all the characters from their original names (Steely Dan, Crazy Diamond, et al). Plus this isn't like a 4kids situation where they're just romanized (Katsuya Jonouchi to Joey Wheeler), it's just pun dodges to get around copyright. Part 3 hasn't been dubbed yet but I'm pretty sure they'll stick to the subtitle names so it'll feel strange for me when the more popular name is the 'wrong' one. I don't think parts 1 and 2 had that many musical references (apart from safe ones like [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REO_Speed_Wagon"]REO Speedwagon[/URL] or [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity"]ACDC[/URL]) so it'll be interesting to see what happens in Part 3 when the references start coming hot and heavy.

Apart from that you had to either know Japanese or work off of online scanlations of dubious quality (like the infamous Duwang translation). The improved, colored scanlations, 2012 anime, and English Jojonium releases (starting with part 1 in 2013) were what finally helped it catch on.

[QUOTE=TheFishyG;51251016][sp]it shows up for about three seconds in the final fight[/sp][/QUOTE] Can you say this without spoilers? I'm on episode 6 :v:

[QUOTE=Ott;51251209]Can you say this without spoilers? I'm on episode 6 :v:[/QUOTE] Basically Hamon is still a thing in part 3 but it's way on the back burner. You should have already seen one instance of it, Joseph using it against the brain-bud. If I remember right there are only like 2 or 3 moments like that in all of part 3. Stands are pretty much the Hot New Thing.

I just finished Stone Ocean [sp]That ending is fucking sad[/sp]

Toonami was a mistake.

Also, I really liked [sp]Made In Heaven's design. And if I could choose one stand to have in real life, I'd pick Made In Heaven, just for the infinite speed that could let you travel to places instantly :v: just be careful to not speed up time[/sp]

if I could have one stand it'd be Crazy Diamond just smoked this weed? let me just punch it and bring it back to an unsmoked state. Just ate some delicious pizza but still hungry? let me just punch the crust

Just ate some delicious pizza but still hungry? let me just punch the crust[/QUOTE] Wouldn't really work, especially with the pizza example since it'd just make you regurgitate the pizza to put it back together so it'd be like you never ate it in the first place.

Speaking of Roundabout I find it funny how most of the times it's not even used properly. Like in Jojo the "To be continued" is used whenever the episode has reached it's conclusion. almost never is used on a cliffhanger. [sp] Even on Zeppeli's death you know what's going to happen even if you haven't read the manga.[/sp] I see so many people using that meme when a guy is about to be punched in the face or something unexpected out of nowhere happens.

Even though Crazy Diamond and Soft & Wet are my favorite stands, if I were to have any stand, it would be Harvest. The power to just collect things is so useful.

I'd take either Crazy Diamond (practical use) or Yellow Temperance (because i think it's cool). Fav. stands are Heaven's Door and Soft & Wet tho. EDIT: Actually, depending on how it works I probably would rather have Khnum, depends on whether or not Yellow Temperance can be put away.

My friend who doesen't know english too well misheard "let the joy of love give you peso" in that new opening song :v:

I just have to say I am very thankful for the song Great Days. As a guy who's been coping with the death of a loved one and constant family distress the past few weeks, I can't begin to state how many times I've listened to it. It just makes me smile; it's such a beautiful song. I'm so glad I got into Jojo, where there's amazing material. Not to mention meeting some great people, like all of you in here. Stay fresh, jojo thread viewers. You guys are great.

If there's any stand that I can take, I take [sp]Scary Monster. So I can turn everyone into Dinosaurs.[/sp]
