How big of a closet does that man have[/QUOTE]
not very big after the next episode
Finally gonna jump into this series after not getting around to it for who knows how damn long now.
Do you guys recommend I go through the Manga first, or just jump into the Anime?
Normally I'd go right for the source material first, but I keep hearing about how accurate, and even slightly better the Anime is in some aspects, (plot holes, etc.), but then again, I know almost nothing about this right now.

Honestly because the anime follows the manga so closely you're fine watching it and then switching to reading once you're caught up. Really it comes down to preference, would you rather watch or read.
Some people will make >animeonly implications but as someone who's reading the manga I'd say either medium is fair game.
You can watch the anime to cover Parts 1 and 2. I'd recommend reading the manga for parts 3 and 4 (especially 4) over watching the anime, but it's up to you.

Just make sure not to skip the parts.
[QUOTE=Ctrl;51125137]I don't know any Asian actors, but surely they could have picked some that looked remotely like the Jojo characters.
And sure, you might have said that we should maybe wait until we see them with the full costume on, but makeup can't change the facial structure that far, so it will still look bad.[/QUOTE]
One of the most common mistakes a film maker can make is casting based entirely on being able to look the part. They have to be able to actually [i]act[/i]. Besides, half of Jojo characters are cartoonishly exaggerated and idealized versions of male models that Araki studied in various fashion magazines, and the other half of them are David Bowie.
I'm sure they'll be able to find a 3 foot tall midget with a spiked head to play Shigechi, a quasi-elf man for Mikitaka, and a 95 year old white guy to play Joseph.

What the fuck? there's nothing wrong with either part 3 or 4's anime, unless you can't understanding airing anime having slipping art gets fixed later for part 4.

I must say, watching Part 3 again with my girlfriend (damn am I happy I'm dating a nerd), and one thing I noticed was the pacing- there were a few times where I felt it could have been cut down on time, put more into the episode that mattered, and still would've felt satisfying. For example, if you were to, say, cut down some time with the Pet Shop fight, replace that with the leadup to The Player fight, you would cut the Player arc down to two eps instead of leaking into the next one like the anime had.
Of course, Part 4's anime is much improved on this matter, and the anime artists want to be as close to the manga as possible (which is problem when you're trying to put them into satisfying 23 minute arcs), but I wouldn't blame anyone for thinking the pacing is a bit off in the animes.

Where's Vento Aureo, Stone Ocean, Steel Ball Run and Jojolion?

For me personally, I read fast, so Part 3's lengthy arcs can be more easily digested when read than with the 50+ episodes of the anime. And also if you read through the manga first you don't have to worry about sitting on your hands and watching out for spoilers constantly.
and the part 4 anime has had serious quality issues and I dunno why people don't notice. Some episodes look decent and then some look like it was done by DP's B-team
I'm starting to miss the 1st OP tbh.

The song doesn't do it for me like the 1st OP though.

No anime, not mainstream enough to make Simpsons collages out of.

You say Part 4 anime having serious quality issues is funny when the manga is just full of weird looking shit that doesnt necessarily even look that good sometimes

Might be a stupid question, but because Jotaro looks enough like his grandpa for Josuke's mom to mistaken Jotaro for him, does that mean Jotaro's Caucasian?

he's half-japanese isn't he, since Holly is american but Sadao is japanese

There's also the part where SC had serious quality that was fixed on the blurays. complaining about quality in an airing show is quite silly when it's becoming the norm to fix the animation later.

[sp]Tomoko doesn't just like Joseph. [I]She really likes him[/I][/sp] Now combine that with the fact that she wouldn't have seen him in [sp]Josuke's age and 9 months[/sp], and that Joseph & Jotaro would most likely look similar to each other since they're family, and Josephs Hamon would probably keep him looking young somehow, despite being 63.
NEW OP
That op was stylish as FUCK

As far as Part 4 OPs go I still like Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town the best as a song, but this might be my new favorite one visually.
