How do I say this in a nice way... People, if you think you suck too much at drawing the human body to make comics/manga/doujinshi, please read JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Pt. 1.

That's such a dumb thing to say, I could never draw as well as Araki did in the 80s when he made this, but still. Sometimes the art is just so charmingly ridiculous. Never the less, I get why this spawned a long series.

When I decided to read this, I was specifically in the mood for hyper-masculine macho action/adventure. And boy howdy, does JoJo deliver. I generally do prefer it when it's ... about the plot and not the fights. I tend to get bored during long fights in manga, anime, any medium, really. And while the plot is zany and weird, it is compelling and keeps you turning the page. Overall I recommend it, it's a solid tale, though I do get the impression that later stories will improve upon just about every single thing Araki did in this one.

Essa parte é infinitamente melhor adaptada pra anime, o inicio é bom mas durante o treinamento do Jonathan cai o ritmo e só volta a acontecer de novo nos dois confrontos contra o dio. Dio como sempre é o personagem que carrega a narrativa, ele é carismatico o bastante pra ofuscar o protagonista e te fazer querer continuar mesmo com enrolação.
O traço não funciona de forma alguma no mangá preto e branco, só consigo entender o que ta rolando no mangá colorido, mas o enredo foi criativo apesar da clara inspiração em dracula e de forma alguma é previsível.
Eu gostei mas o ritmo foi ... ruim e o araki poderia enxugar alguns textos que as vezes deixam os painéis muito lotados

JoJo Part 1 may just be the worst manga series I have ever read, but three factors keep me from giving it anything less than a 5. First, it is easy to see how JoJo influenced a lot of anime and manga series that I find more palatable because they dial down the goofiness from JoJo a bit. Second, the art style in JoJo is well above almost all of it's Shonen Jump peers. Third, there is a significant jump in quality between part 1 and part 2. Pretty much every other aspect of this manga is banal. Just getting through all the volumes felt ... like a chore. Reading only part one of JoJo felt like it took longer than reading all of One Piece. I can't think of a single shounen battle manga I like less than JoJo part 1.
