[QUOTE=Corndog Ninja;50662100]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![/QUOTE] If you liked Part 3 a lot, you're in for a hell of a ride because Part 4 is considered the best or second best part in the entire series.
[URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-Y_wj5COGE"]Preview for next episode is out[/URL]
Finished Eyes of Heaven last night. The ending with [sp]Little Jolyne and the pictures of everyone still alive[/sp] made up for how much the last few chapters dragged on IMO. That said I would rather stop playing altogether than do another [sp]zombie wave survival mission[/sp].
Never realized it until now but Stroheim's Uniform alt appears to have been removed from the international release of EoH. I don't think it had any swastikas or anything on it did it? Still it sucks. EoH is fun imo but the story is pretty mediocre to be honest, I was hoping for a lot more interaction between everyone. Plus I wish that they would've had [sp]all the jojo's play a big role in defeating Over Heaven instead of just Jotaro. That's another thing I feel it focused on Jotaro too much and not enough on the others[/sp]

I would of loved to use Star Platinum: Over Heaven in a 1v1.[/sp]. I liked the story itself, but I think the presentation was pretty weak. It was practically a visual novel most of the time with little variety beyond [sp]fighting zombies and playing poker[/sp]. IMO even the PS1 port of HttF did a much better job with keeping it's story mode more interesting.
I read through all eight (so far) of the JoJo series. Where do I go from here?
[QUOTE=nerdster409;50667608]I read through all eight (so far) of the JoJo series.

Try Hunter x Hunter, the premise of Nen is similar to stands or hamon though less complicated.

How telekinesis is used can be likened to Stands as well, though it's used to control something physical rather than something completely spiritual.
You know I thought of a really good stand name that I want to appear one day. Hoobastank.
I still want a Death Grips stand
[QUOTE=nerdster409;50667608]I read through all eight (so far) of the JoJo series.

It shows an alternative look of Phantom Blood where Jonathan gets turned into vampire instead of Dio.
[QUOTE=aussiedropbear;50672573]I still want a Death Grips stand[/QUOTE] I think the name Death Grips would work surprisingly well for Purple Haze.
[QUOTE=aussiedropbear;50672573]I still want a Death Grips stand[/QUOTE] I seriously want to hear a Japanese voice actor shout "YOU MIGHT THINK HE LOVES YOU FOR YOUR MONEY BUT I KNOW WHAT HE REALLY LOVES YOU FOR IT'S YOUR BRAND NEW LEOPARD SKIN PILLBOX HAT" mid-battle
[QUOTE=aussiedropbear;50672573]I still want a Death Grips stand[/QUOTE] complete with an "ITGOESITGOESITGOESITGOESITGOES YAH" battlecry
New op Muchhh better than crazy noisy
New OP: [video]https://youtu.be/zP9Y1XAwsY0[/video]
Loving all the foreshadowing like previous OPs
[QUOTE=aussiedropbear;50673692]New op Muchhh better than crazy noisy[/QUOTE] I disagree, i like them both.
Ey I still love CNBT, just didn't think it was as good as the others They're all amazing really
I prefer CNBT. I like my jojo intros mad hype
[QUOTE=aussiedropbear;50673826]Ey I still love CNBT, just didn't think it was as good as the others They're all amazing really[/QUOTE] Oh yeah sure, i meant i din't think this was much better. They both fit the style pretty well.
Damn all that foreshadowing in the OP they really stepped it up this time The song itself is okay in my opinion not too crazy about it but its decent
i completely forgot about this episode having the [sp]josuke's hair[/sp] story it was very well done, can't wait for all the ridiculous theories that anime-only people will come up with until they find out [sp]he really was just some random delinquent[/sp] new OP song is alright, nothing amazing but the visuals were fantastic
Great OP, although it feels like the song cuts off too early, like it was still getting into its stride rather than being designed to peak by 1:30. I get the feeling the full version will be really good.

Seriously though, I thought I read that it was going to be a storyline but ended up being ignored like the rest of the part 4 threads. Hopefully Araki clarifies it someday.[/sp]

as i've mentioned some time back in this thread, i personally prefer the delinquent just stay as he is, there's no reason to explain everything
[sp]rohan getting punched in the face was the highlight of the ep[/sp] next week [img]http://i.imgur.com/XSES9Q0.jpg[/img]
