| I'm glad they didn't show the OP/ED. Saved me a seizure. |
 |
| WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY |
| It is so dense. Every single image has so many things going on. |
| My body is ready. Art looks great, but the wording seems off and the pacing seems a tad fast. Regardless, 8/10 solid first ep. |
  |
| Oh shit! Dio is back! |
| Anime of the year has arrived and it start off strong like expected. stands seem pretty interesting compared to using the ripple for combat, and old Joseph is awesome. |
| This anime is so full of shit. Meh. 9/10 for the series so far from me though. Just sayin' |

| Friggin Persona wannabe, dropped. |
| OH Yes! SO much better than the OVA so far. I'm feelin Jojo's Black uniform I just hope Avdol starts wearing pants eventually, a long robe like that isn't really tactical. the stylized frames and the over the topness add SO much to this series gedata said: Jotaro: Shut the fuck up bitch! Holly: Okaaaaay *Enter new logo" lmao Lol that scene was fantastic! AzuriteMal said: Friggin Persona wannabe, dropped. actually Persona is probably the wannabe. The original Jojo OVA came out before the 1st Persona game, and the Jojo manga is even older than that. |

| I gave it a 5/5, but what I meant was 6/5. It was so perfectly done, the pacing, the music, the animation, the seiyu choices, /fangasm. |
| First time watching a JoJo series and it was quite interesting. I thought the art would turn me off but it was okay. I still don't get the massive hype though. Unique art aside, I don't think it's that different with your typical action series.. just some people having entities fight for them like Shaman King or Persona (yes I know JoJo is an older series but I still don't see where the hype came from). Oh well I'll just watch it to pass time every week.. maybe it'll surprise me like Kill la Kill (which I hated at first but ended up liking as it progressed). |

The real inventive and creative stuff with Stands start AFTER this part. For now, we're treated to the basic powers and battle type ability of Stand, but the fights in this part are pretty darn good too. The hype came from JoJo being the one who preceded and inspired those series, and the later parts have some of the best and smart/witty/cunning fights in shounen mangas.

jiraiya_sensei said: I still don't get the massive hype though. Well, it comes Natural with Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: 1. The Series is old as fuck, and still running 2. It's a really popular series 3. Stardust Crusaders was the most popular part in the series 4. The1st Season by David Production was very well received because they're faithful to the style of the manga. (Main Factor) 5. Most of the Hype comes from the Avid Manga Readers, which is A lot of them. Just compare this episode with the OVA, and which one will most likely excite the audience more? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnb1tHqLMIM |

| Wonderful. |
| On another note, the official anime Twitter confirmed that the OP visuals will be done by the same studio who did the two first openings, so expect a really fucking awesome one as always |
| I find it weird how it's already in the top 50 even though it's only been 1 episode |
 |
| Stardust Crusader is here! Look like they done well with the sales for the previous part to improve the animation this much. I can't wait for Dio to appear and do his things. Gonna have to wait a while for that. Wonder what the OP and ED gonna be, I won't mind if they keep the previous ED song. It would be awesome if its 3 cour or something. Lel at people calling it Persona wannabe, funny people. |
BadassKatana said: I find it weird how it's already in the top 50 even though it's only been 1 episode 1) Perfect execution of Jojo 2012 from DP. 2) Less new viewers/non-fans who dislike the style (same with Gintama). 3) Actual budget. 4) Nearly everyone who watches this has read the manga (at least from the hardcore crowd who discusses it here). Speaking of which: Three Jojo's in the top 10 sound MUCH more appealing to me than three Gintama. SC, Diamond and SBR can do it :D KaiserNazrin said: Stardust Crusader is here!

Persona would probably not exist without SC to begin with, some people are indeed silly. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
Nidhoeggr said: Persona would probably not exist without SC to begin with, some people are indeed silly. Not to mention Persona 4 is a rip off of JoJo part 4 in more ways than just one. I think there was a whole wall of text for that. |
DejWoSWK said: It was an interesting episode...but animation seemed....quirky to me, I can´t understand why. Despite that, I can´t wait for the next episode. The only noticeable animation faults I saw were the obvious distance shots, they looked kind of weird with the super thick outlines and all And those didn't just appear in distance shots all the time |
| MAN! I am loving this so far! All of these characters seem so interesting, and I think stands seems super cool. As somebody who has never read the manga whatsoever, I really liked part 2, and even after just finishing that a couple days ago, I'm still supremely hyped for more JoJo. I'm loving the animation, too, it's looking really nice. The OP song has already been announced... but, anybody want to take bets on what the ED song will be? I'm guessing it'll be another classic rock song, to keep with the theme of the names, and the previous series' ED. I doubt they'll go with another Yes track, but I'm guessing it's likely it'd be something similar from that era. I'm gonna take a shot in the dark, and take a somewhat obscure guess that I feel would fit: "Tales of Brave Ulysses" by Cream Here's a YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekeIIyj8_2A There's a few reasons why I guessed this - 1) Seeing as how Warner Bros. is producing the show, and how Warner Music Group owns the rights to Roundabout, and also owns the rights to all of Cream's songs, it seems like it'd be a simple process of signing it off for use on the show. 2) The song's lyrics & tone seem to reflect the show to some extent, talking about an epic journey. 3) The song has a similarly slow start, much like Roundabout, only to jump into something a bit heavier, with guitar solos and all that good stuff. Like, I said, though... it's just a guess. If not that song, I'm betting they probably pick some track from Cream. Oooh! or maybe something by King Crimson. That is, if they even stick with theme of a classic rock song at all. |

| This looks so bad now http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siZQqD9T81c some1 should make a comparison video |
Dizzee said: This looks so bad now http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siZQqD9T81c some1 should make a comparison video Though, it's better animated in some aspects |
Dizzee said: This looks so bad now http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siZQqD9T81c some1 should make a comparison video That.... actually looks pretty fucking awesome. I mean, it's a decade ago right? It looks sharper. I'm not gonna say it's better, but it's not worse either. It's just as good with slight differences. The animation is more fluid though. Might pick it up after this current one is over. |

Dizzee said: This looks so bad now http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siZQqD9T81c some1 should make a comparison video The animation and backgrounds look much better than the new series. Honestly the only thing the new series beats it in is character design, because they look like the actual characters instead of cavemen. |
| i dont know how this will fit in 26 episodes actually. "The world" had nearly 18 chapters in manga and there are shit ton of enemies besides that. 152 chapters in total, only 4 chapters are done so far.. ahhh im kind of worried but well you have my full support DP. |

Not exactly super fair since the other source was 480p with artifacts and the other one was 720p. Also, my apologies for the horrible stitch, I don't really make those that often. EDIT/ Goddamnit why did Avdol cut off, oh whatever |

Man keep reading the manga! :) Im currently at part 5, The beginning of the Stand Era is fricking epic, All of the battles are epic. You'll a lot of things that shounens like HxH etc have adapted from JoJO. |
| Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Erina survive the ship sinking by using Dio's coffin as a life raft? If so how was Dio in his coffin for the past 100 years? |
