Omega_Ra1der Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I am quite surprised that there is no JoJo discussion thread yet considering how known the anime is on the forums. If you are going to spoil anything about the manga or the show, put it in a spoiler. I am a guy who don't watch/read something after doing either of these In this case, I am only watching the anime. Otherwise, go ahead talk about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartar Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I'm quite interested in the series, though I have no idea where to start. Should I go with the manga? Anime? And which arc? Do I have to read the whole thing to enjoy the story, or can I just read an arc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega_Ra1der Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 The manga is up to eight parts and still going. If you want to watch the anime, start with 2012 followed by stardust crusaders, both s1 and s2, then, the ongoing Diamond is unbreakable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either start at the start with Phantom Blood, or not at all. Don't meant to be conceited or anything, it's just that they normally interlock together. There is also no filler: all of it is enjoyable and awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exalted Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA its a good series if you watch it and quite fun at it phantom blood is good though i always found the pacing a tad rushed other than a anime worth trying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Support Squad Felicity Posted June 10, 2016 Support Squad Share Posted June 10, 2016 You can watch all of it for free at crunchyroll. It's sorted into chronological order too and it's showing the newest episodes now, so there's that. I finished P1 a while ago, should be starting on 2 soon. P1 ended a lot sooner than I thought it would tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverJakler Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Just finished the Part 4 manga. Really really liked it, thought it wrapped up nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shad_ Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I'm reading P3 but i'm not liking it as i liked it the first two parts, all the stuff about Ripples is more interesting imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartar Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 I see, if there's no point in reading it unless you read the whole thing I should probably not read it since I don't have the time... Thanks for the advance anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverJakler Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Started reading Part 5. I'm liking the dynamic between Giorno and Bruno so far. Also Gold experience's ability is really interesting. Can't wait to see how this story plays out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shad_ Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Just to be sure, does this "stand" stuff keeps going during the other parts of JoJo? Because i really don't like it and i want to know if it's worth to keep reading to reach more interesting parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the stands get more interesting power as the series progresses, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega_Ra1der Posted July 29, 2016 Author Share Posted July 29, 2016 what you guys think of the new op? I found it actually decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I absolutely love the visuals in the new opening. It's just filled to the brim with references to future events, symbolism and just all around good animation. I still miss the CG, though. Hopefully it'll be in there for the final OP for DiU. The song itself is alright, but I do find that the visuals of the opening help it a lot. Reveal hidden contents also shigechi hype Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makkilemore Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 I like it a lot but I feel like it doesn't reflect the later end of this arc. Have they confirmed whether or not there'll be another OP? because the animation doesn't feel like it'd open the last part of part 4 well since it Reveal hidden contents doesn't really have any focus on Rohan even though he shows up in like every chapter, includes a bunch of one off characters but not Mikitaka (<3) or the Superfly guy or that rock paper scissors kid and only shows Kira way at the end for like two seconds I love the song though, although it reminds me a lot of FMA:B's 87 openings.

Yes, there's gonna be one more opening for Part 4. The whole season of Part 4 is gonna be 39 episodes long, with 3 seperate "sections", each having their own opening. Part 4 Spoilers I guess. Reveal hidden contents I feel this opening is a good one for the middle of DiU, as the crew just learned about Kira and are trying to track him down. Not necessarily at full speed, but soon they will be. Also I just finished reading Part 6. My soul's been destroyed to say the least.

I've always mentally broken part 4 into three parts anyways Reveal hidden contents part 1 being beginning->reimi or the intro arc part 2 being reimi-> atom heart father or the "finding Kira" arc part 3 being that until the end or the "kira makes everybody suffer and gets a boner" arc so yea then this OP works really well for part 2 also I should really finish reading part 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some consider it the weakest, but honestly it's only because of the shitty translations. There have been new translations coming out recently that I managed to get into for my first time reading. A good portion of it was in color, too! Giorno's not my all time favorite by any means, but I do really like him all the same. Also, I just started reading Steel Ball Run and I'm getting super hyped reading the rules of the race... and Johnny hasn't even showed up yet! I can tell this is gon' be gud.
