What's the consensus on Jojolion?
Bump
Araki forgot
Fuck off, you know the consensus on /a/. This thread is an excuse to beat this dead horse even more.
>>269127003>>269127003I stopped reading JoJolion because I'm not patient for new chapters but now that is done I might pick it up, does /a/ hate it or something?
One of the biggest piles of shit I have ever wasted my life reading, and that’s saying something after I read Joyce, falkner, and IJ
>>269127173>american authorsfirst mistake but why is JoJolion bad faggot
>>269127101/a/ hates literally everything. Read it and make your own opinion anon
>>269127258NO!
>>269126290jojo hasnt been good since sbr
>>269127246>terrible ending>worthless epilogue >worst powerup in the series by a country mile>pursuit only counts when araki wants it to>a fucking paint can>an airplane wing falls on joshuus house and his fucking stand perfect for that situation does nothing>dropped plot points everywhere>JOSUKE DID YOU KNOW ABOUT INVISIBLE THREADS?>the ending is so abrupt and bad it’s comical>even beyond WoU’s broken ability, araki keeps adding new rock powers onto it and josuke beats it with a pool of water
>>269127332Everything here is wrong except for Joshus redemption arc fakeout. Araki literally did nothing with his character for a decade.
Yeah, JJL sucks blah blah blah.This is NOW a JOJOLands thread. Discuss our new villain.
>>269127591Im gonna discuss Dragona's 2inches in my mouth
>>269127722>we have to deal with a troon main character for the next decadeGrim
>>269126290Tooru should have been a lolibaba
>>269127765I'm just happy Araki recognized his LGBQT+ fanbase and gave us representation anon! it really speaks volumes how a large part of the fandom always denied the queer visuals in Araki's work and now they can't deny it anymore
>>269127815week bait
>>269127824im trying anon
>>269126290Toru ruined it
>>269127332>B-B-B-BUT MUH FATE MUH DESTINYbad take anon
>>269127553Everything there is the absolute is the absolute truth
>>269128184Stupid fucking chud
>>269128356Buzzwords buzzwords buzzwords
>>269128381You fucking chud
DamnJojolion really killed interest huhOr was it Stone Ocean because of Netflix?
>>269128440Both. I'm not even sure if SBR will ever be animated at this point.
>>269128440Bro Netflix KILLED the hype, amirite?
>>269128440>Or was it Stone Oceanwhat do you mean, Stone Ocean is great
>>269128488Please let Mandom be kino, that's all I'm asking for
>>269128498Yeah but the batch schedule and the QUALITY animation didn't do it justice.
>>269128577Is not near as bad as part 4 anime, fucking hell I couldn't watch after 10 episodes anymore
>>269128635Filtered
>>269128690It looks like fucking ass dude what are you talking about, still mad to this day
>>269128716Just finished rewatching it and it holds up pretty well. When's the last time you've watched it?
>>269128635I'm sick of you faggots downplaying Stone Ocean's terrible production value.Part 4 is great compared to the low effort crap DP is making now.
>>269128758I don't know what to tell you anon, last time I watched it? you mean the couple of episodes I saw? 2016. It looks bad, and I won't watch a butchered version of one of my favorites, Not even the animation was good as far as I remember>>269128882I don't know, at least is watchable unlike that goofy trash released with a JoJo name on it
>>269128920Part 4s animation is still better than Part 6's
>>269128920>at least is watchableYou got it reversed, blind man. There's a reason nobody wants to watch Slide Ocean a second time.
>>269128974God, it looks so fucking bad not the animation tho that's fine but the rest of it fuck that doesn't even look like Josuke it looks like a generic seasonal anime or that one spin-off with hol-horse and josuke please tell me you like this ironically or something please
1st half is peak JoJo2nd half is worst JoJo
>>269129114The fact that this is the only part that looks like this makes it even more unique and sovlful. Hope you know that, tienshitter
>>269129159>1st half is peak JoJoNope, it was never true, that's a cope people made because of the shitty second half. Even the first half is filled with plot holes and questionable writing.
>>269129278>the fact that they butchered arguably the best JoJo part in the whole series and making Josuke look like a generic soft-boy, making the anime not even look remotely close to Araki's work is soulfulPart 6 looks fantastic compared to that """"""""""""""""""unique"""""""""""""""""" trash.>your run of the mill anime quality is unique nowget some help
we always shit on everything after Damo Tamaki but I want to talk about the good thingsEverything about Yasuho getting groomed and gaslit and PMSing was great, loved watching Yasuho be miserable her entire life just because of being stalked by one pervert since she was a child.
>>269129414Part 6 looks like a poor imitation of Part 5s art and animation, which actually looks amazing. DiU is just too keyed for you. You got filtered. I'm sorry. I wish there was something I could do for you.
>>269129523you people are so delusional, I don't even understand what you win by defending that piece of fucking garbage
I wish all of part 4 looked like the hunting episode
>>269127591My take is that he'll just be the antagonist of a next arc. Nothing tells us Howler co. will be the main conflict of this Part.
>>269127591Convince me this is NOT alternate universe Giorno. Also Araki gave us a sneak peak of his stand... what will it do!?
>>269130330>Convince me this is NOT alternate universe GiornoShut the fuck up, idiot.
Has anyone noticed how Jojo has been less fun after Part 7? It doesn't have those stand out moments like the older parts did. Nothing memorable.
I don't like it nor disliked, it felt too disjointed to me - its like Araki didn't really know where to lead the story to:>who the fuck is josuke?>ummm, johnny died early btw>rock humans!>there's this weird fruit that might have something to do with Josuke idk>uh oh! Holly is on a timer!>your bubbles spin btw>here's a secret organization whose leader has a stand even more broken than King Crimson>what? Holly? yeah without the fruit she'll probably diei did like the bizarre-ness of the Stands and I liked WoU for the same reason I liked KC (they're nigh undefeatable and they just work) but the power-up to defeat it felt just as unearned as Giorno's
>>269126290Great first third, Daimo was an amazing arc, Falls apart gradually and then around Chapter 70 just fucking drops
>>269130501
>>269127553I genuinely do not understand how out of everything the other guy mentioned, you would implicitly defend the epilogue. I was seething a little bit when I read it because it was such a waste of time. That was the worst chapter I read it all of JoJo, and to place it at the end of the arc was tantamount to taking a piss moments after a dissatisfied hand job, relieved that you can leave soon, only for your underperforming partner to unexpectedly pluck your balls hairs in violent fashion. I dare say it was a bottom 10 chapter amongst all media I have ever read.
>>269126290It's a story.About breaking a curse.
>>269130785>posts wall of text>thinks I will read itjojolionseethers have gone insane
Do people lose it this badly over jojolion not being exactly a traditional story with clear villains and motives everywhere to pay attention to, no way it's it filtering people this badly
>>269127591I don't like the polka dots
>>269130992Araki moving out of shonen was a misake, now it will only atract pseuds like you desu
>>269130893>>269130992Got lost? Reddit is the other way.
>>269130893You read all of JoJolion, but sure, refuse to read on a message board when you reply to someone. Sincerely go fuck yourself.
>>269127591>Wealthy and probably noble>Italian>weird ass beardHe'll be seen impressing bad bitches using the spin and you'll all be sorryAlso Magenta Magenta is still alive and they dug him up from under that river sometime in 2016
>>269130415
>>269127591If the main protagonist is called Jodio then could this guy be Diojo?
>>269131110Okay. I'll respond then. What didn't you like about the chapter specifically?
>>269130992
Araki lost interest in the story he setup so he phoned it in for several yearsI'm enjoying JoJolands much more than part 8
>>269131248Usagi loves troons btw
>>269130543Part 9 is as fun as pre-JJL Parts. Your mind is just stuck with the old artstyle.
>>269126290The last kino chapter was when Jobin got the Rokaka branch in the Tom fight.
>>269131213Im waiting chuddy
>>269131219I miss him so much bros...
>>269127591IDK dude he seems like the type to die like a bitch
>>269131358>dies like a bitchJOBin
>>269131493He was too good of a character to win.
>>269131010First, they're holes. Second, it's what brings the design together.You wouldn't get it.
Did they ever talk about male rock human X female rock human relationship? Was Tooru mixed?
>>269130330Other than a hair curl he has 0 connection to him what's so ever. Not that it matters since you can tell nothing about a characters path based on who they're the counter part to>Also Araki gave us a sneak peak of his stand... what will it do!?Straight up causes earthquakes based off of how sexually frustrated he is. He needs to have a steady stream of whores fucking him or else he may lose control of it
>>269131213He hasnt responded. Verdict: Jojolion haters blindly hate jojolion and do not know why
Is JJL special in how long /a/ was mad about it or is it like this with every series with a bad end?
>>269132064You are embarrassing. Please go back to your safe space.
>>269132265Kek, do you have that other screencap of those NPCs praising Jojolion?
>>269132345>videogame picture>kek>NPCfucking hell /v/eddit...
>>269132265>No more are the days where stands pretend to have hard rules>This is a good thing to themStopped reading there
>>269132345
>>269132397jojoliontard...
>>269130992The flash forward is the worst part and the most insulting to the reader. That's when I lost all interest in JJL.
>>269132406Kek, thank you.
>>269131293I wish the names were more exciting. Jojolion was fine, Jojolands is just boring.
What was the point of the two chapters about Joshu and the money?
>>269132895Filler, while Araki was thinking about what to do with the story. It didn't go well.
>>269132642And people say he has no personality
>>269131248It'll happen to Part 9 in six to ten years.
>>269128882I liked part 4 and part 6. I liked the beginning of stone ocean and the ending of part 4. stone ocean kind of went off the rails once they left the prison and diamond was kind of directionless up until they met kira. :)
Stone Ocean is the end of JoJo.Steel Ball Run is the epilogue.
>>269133358I really liked the episodic first half of Diamond. It's not directionless, it's slice of life and mystery of the week to build up the people and the town they're in. The second half is all the more impactful because we're so deep into a regular life that Kira is stealing from the protagonists.
>>269133327You wish. He planned out the whole story during his 19 months hiatus.
>>269133327Nope. I'm sure Araki learned his lesson
>>269133449>>269133663Think back on this in the 2020s when the volcano rock and whatever else he's building up now gets thrown to the wayside for some random bullshit.
>>269133832Araki started JoJolion a month after SBR's final chapter.Meanwhile, he's on record saying TJL was more or less in the works in December 2021.
>>269133663I'm not sure about that. Has Araki commented on Jojolion's ending since?
>>269127591The real antagonist are the bank accountants who show up to seize his properties, or whoever own the bank>Story is all about the flow of money>Bank is literally a place that control the flow of money
