[QUOTE=aussiedropbear;50643077]Did they even try[/QUOTE]
Yes, they picked real good synonyms
Still sounds really stupid honestly like with a few other renames

It's honestly the best rename they could've gone for
it's not like anyone who doesn't know what the names should be will be playing it for very long
At least its better than show off or arts and crafts

And Limp Bizkit doesn't sound stupid?
So Rohan's stand name is based off the Guns and Roses song right?
Funny, how they didn't censor it on neither crunchyroll or kissanime subs.

it's a bob dylan song, the guns n roses version is a cover

They're both stupid like a lot of stand names not going to try and deny that, but it's still better than Flaccid Pancake.
but I admit I'm hard as fuck to please with stand renames so ye

Fair enough, everyone has different standards. Personally i'm not a fan of localization changes that change the content, (the Jelly Donut effect) but i don't care about name changes, and i happen to think that most of the jojo ones are hilarious.
The main ones that stand out are Zipper man though, because come on you didn't even try.
Zippy fingers?

heaven's door is far enough removed from "Knocking on Heaven's Door" for it to be safe
kissanime isn't a legit legal site so they dont care either way but they probably just rip subtitles from crunchy since those are the fastest to come out
shining diamond would be safe as well but it's a pink floyd song and roger waters is on gene simmons levels of copyright insanity

why not just call it Limp Biscuit instead? or if that's still too close, Limb Biscuit

Because it isn't hilarious.

I doubt kissanime gives any shits since from what I've seen all they do is just rip off existing subs and put their watermark on it

Floppy Cookie
slump pastry
wilted toast

The Part 5 stands have the worst renames IMO.
Li'l Bomber is as bad as Zipper Man
some of the renames are terrible and others are passing, but the absolute best are 'we don't know what D4C stands for' and goddamn FILTHY ACTS AT A REASONABLE PRICE

I'll give them credit, if you did read the manga you'll know what the name is. You'll shake your head at the stupid renames but hey it works.

I was making a joke, but I do share your point. Plus even if you didn't know the manga, I'm pretty sure you'd get the joke/reference as well if you're a music fan.
[QUOTE=ElderLolz;50648203]It feels like they're actively trying to make a joke out of some names sometimes.
Fucking Flaccid Pancake what even[/QUOTE]
No fucking shit
what the hell is wrong with you people of course it's a joke
I honestly enjoy the knock off names. Makes me think of all those cheap knock off toys that have silly names for them.

Adds a bit more humor to the show for me.
What are you talking about?
Are you trying to poke fun at my favorite character "Cowboy"?

I thought Maiden Heaven was pretty fucking clever
I think a lot of the translations are the team just thinking "ah fuck it, you know it's crazy diamond so just pretend that's what the subs say" and not putting too much thought into a BS legally dissimilar stand name
I kinda miss Roundabout
Those opening strings were always such a good way to build suspense at the end of an episode
Just finished reading Stardust Crusaders for the first time, and I loved it!
I just wish that pop-culture and memes hadn't spoiled the power of DIO's stand for me because the menace and mystery is built up so well for so long that knowing [sp]The World can stop time[/sp] was a bit of a bummer.
I know a [I]lot[/I] less about the next several parts, though, so I'm excited to see how those unfold!
