So when they animate [sp]Josuke's flashback of the man who saved him as a kid[/sp] are they going to change how [sp]he saved himself as it was a plot point that was never touched on [/sp]?

I mean, that guy didn't have any of those golden thingies by the collar.

I always thought [sp]Killer Queen was going to have time powers that sent people back in time instead of resetting time [/sp].
[QUOTE=Mark Twain1;49095258]I always thought [sp]Killer Queen was going to have time powers that sent people back in time instead of resetting time [/sp].[/QUOTE] [sp]MIHOH[/sp] can probably do that
[QUOTE=Mark Twain1;49095258]I always thought [sp]Killer Queen was going to have time powers that sent people back in time instead of resetting time [/sp].[/QUOTE] Some people speculated that would be the case and Araki just scrapped the idea and I also agree with that speculation.

The problem is, even as good as part 4 is, its just unfinished. Araki started so many plot threads that were never touched again, Delinquent guy and invisible baby to name a couple. Araki actually said he wanted to go back and make a part 4 extension or something along those lines to explain a couple of things like that, but then just went ahead and made Ravioli Ravioli i wan to be a gangstaroli.

I sure hope all the slice of life stuff in part 4 won't be rushed in the anime.
So I'm in the middle of Part 6 and [sp]Invisible Ghost-Zombies.[/sp] Okay.
[QUOTE=Hakita;49095749] i dont think i want to see the part 4 cast in araki's current artstyle[/QUOTE] He's been doing that already tho and it's not even bad. Also his current aesthetic has been getting more and more stylized backing off of late SBR recently.

wait, is josuke a floating torso in that shot??

I've never once gotten lost. In fact, I think this is his most comprehendable shit yet. The [sp] aphex twins fight was one of my favorites so far off the whole fucking series! Gappy just goes "fuck stands" and stomps their shit with his bare fucking hands! [/sp] Actually, gappy is becoming my favorite jojo
I get lost tons of times when I'm reading Part 8. Araki's panelling can get really weird sometimes

[/sp] Actually, gappy is becoming my favorite jojo[/QUOTE] i lose track of what's happening during some of the action parts, his lack of flow really hurts his action scenes i love the idea of the [sp]aphex twins[/sp] fight, but the execution feels sub-par for me the problem is how bad araki's depictions of movement and weight are like look at [url=http://puu.sh/ljWIe/879368b90e.jpg]this page[/url], the opponent's stance and the way he moves doesn't look like a punch or even an attack at all, it looks like he's quickly trying to wipe off something on gappy's face so he doesn't embarass himself in public while gappy pushes his hand away like "dude i can do it myself" josuke's punch is supposed to be a quick strike, but his stance is still wrong, where he's punching with his left hand while his right hand is the one he puts his weight on the lack of change in anyone's facial expressions just further serves to lessen the hits' impacts technically it's not a mistake, but art-wise its awful at depicting strength, movement and impact now compare that to Murata's fights in One Punch Man, which has some of the best fights in manga: [url=http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9DsJE9r4Ysk/VjlgOpdPh3I/AAAAAAABlLU/igE9pZMx8Mw/s16000-Ic42/026.jpg]1[/url] [url=http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-bOtAU5X5iqI/VjlgHwtY5HI/AAAAAAABlLU/3KEEsCgFHZQ/s16000-Ic42/027.jpg]2[/url] [url=http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ut0lZnx-oxQ/VjlyK2vze9I/AAAAAAABoP8/jPhRZtD-xvo/s16000-Ic42/009.jpg]3[/url] [url=http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kzpAZ_DNUH8/VjlyLiQS9XI/AAAAAAABoP8/Yk88iEfrf7Y/s16000-Ic42/011.jpg]4[/url] note the use of the line of action, the stances, the dynamic camera angles and the blur the characters always lean in for their punches and the weight of the hit is accentuated by the character deforming and continuing the flow of movement from the punch basically, araki's problem is this: [t]https://awsomesauce.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/line-of-action.jpg[/t] i don't blame him, he hasn't been doing straight up physical fight scenes in ages so it's completely expected that he's not that great with it, but it's still disappointing

So excited for April.
Whoops I meant to post that link lol. Didn't think it would air so soon tho.
as i said in the anime thread, really sad to hear josuke's VA has changed he was flawless in ASB and EoH, i doubt this new guy will be able to even come close
Hopefully Kira's VA stays the same

Yeah. Should be.
The colours and designs look very...unique. I feel like we're getting another Battle Tendency level of artistry going on here which is awesome

Shame about Josuke's VA, I liked his ASB voice. Good that Okuyasu stayed the same, his VA made me appreciate him a lot more after playing ASB. Let's hope they keep Kira's ASB VA as well.
IDK how I feel about Koichi using his early part 4 design. [IMG]http://40.media.tumblr.com/a5adc389fb77e64b8a37cebc69b7ad27/tumblr_inline_nrgg8a8GBP1sn0a11_500.png[/IMG]
