Araki's art is so shit

there are so many episodes. I watched only part 1
>>
no, steel ball run is, unless you don't consider it to be jojo

Only thing I really like about this part is Josuke and Kira. Wish Araki would've stuck with his idea of Josuke going back in time. Feel like we could've had some kino.

>>282595382
It would have been nice, but according to Araki that was never planned

So that random guy with the funny hair just happened to be some random stranger who helped him and his mum out? I don't believe it no matter how many times say that wasn't a time travelling Josuke.

I think second part is best, even thou it didn't have any stands, the protag and righting was godlike. It's also fucking hilarious.

Yes, that's the point of p4, kind people exist everywhere, even in a small town like Morioh

I found the final fight of Kira vs Josuke to be pretty boring. Okuyasu should have died.

It is a metaphor for Jotaro defeating Dio and saving Josuke from his illness

The only problem I really have with Golden Wind is the Jojo. Bruno and mista were just too good for the part

josuke wears his hair stupid like that as tribute to the random teen that helped him when he was a kid, it's already self-fulfilling

It's Stardust Crusaders. It was always Stardust Crusaders. It will always be Stardust Crusaders. The storytime cemented this fact.
>>
>>282600761
The end of Stardust Crusaders is easily the peak of the series but there are too many weaker/boring stand fights and not enough plot in part 3 overall.

The last thirty or so chapters of Stardust Crusaders is peak Jojo but everything before that is hit or miss

>>282600826

Jojo is hit or miss in general. The only parts that aren't hit or miss are 1 and 2, they are what they are.

I dunno, some people on here really hate the pillar men.

Well yeah but that's the whole part. Part 2 is consistent start to finish whatever you feel about it. Really 1 and 2 are just too short to be hit or miss.

there was not much left of him anymore after Part 3 anyway. might as well sacrifice him in order to churn out another part. Part 2 Joseph and anything after that are different characters.

It meandered too much for my liking. Also kinda wild Okuyasu never gets an arc to himself despite the meandering.

Those guys have bad taste. The Pillar Men are amazing and Araki never did something better than them as important plot points and antagonists.
>Remember the mask and how powerful the vampires and Dio were? Those guys are nothing, there's lots of masks and vampires are literal food for the pillar men, the world is bigger than you thought

No.

I think its more kino if its literally just a delinquent with a golden heart who helped him out expecting nothing in return.

Its just a sweet moment, and how much it impacted Josuke's life is v wholesome.

>>282599895
The parts stopped revolving around the Jojo after 2. 5 in particular is about an ensemble cast more than a single character
>>
>>282595557
Yes, he was a just a delinquent. Josuke didn't invent having a pompadour
>>
>>282615478
Joshu kicks ass, shame he gets dropped in the back half of the part. Josuke, Yashuo, and him should've been the main trio.
>>
>>282600761
Seeing Dio for the first time since the end of Part 1 was so hype. Whole storytime thread was freaking out every time he did or said something cool

personally part 5 is my favorite so far (i've only read volume 1 of part 7, and seen some parts of 8 and 9 (which i am excited for)) but part 4 is an amazing part and i understand why it's a lot of people's favorite, and i think objectively it could be the best jojo part. it's the first part after the original vampire trilogy and when araki really started getting creative, and i also love all the characters in morioh, even the less good episodes were still really entertaining. and it was so nice to watch after the sort of depressing ending of part 3. i think jotaro is used very well in this part as a mentor character rather than a main character.
>>
>"Josuke's savior is just some random, kind high school delinquent, so it was definetly not Josuke time traveled and saved his younger self."
>"Araki himself dismissed the idea, so the theory was never true."
>Fast forward 2007
>An official fucking sequel light novel of part 4 was released
>Published by Jump and had ILLUSTRATION from ARAKI himself
>It fucking TEASED the very idea of Josuke did in fact got time traveled
>>
>>282627899
Araki lets spin-off authors write wathever they want, and his illustrations don't make those more canon.
>>
>>282628195
>An officially published sequel book by Jump and having official illustration by the original creator himself... is not cannon
Unless it wasn’t Araki who made the illustrations, I would have agreed that the novel is not canon, but he himself made them, so he more or less approved the content of it
AND
Unless Araki himself outright says with his own mouth that the novel is not canon (via interview or anything of the sort), then the book is, in fact, canon.
>>
>>282628943
So according to your belief, JORGE JOESTAR (official light novel published by Jump) is canon because Araki drew for the cover.
Stop the cope. Araki didn't supervise The Book, so the author could have even explicitly contradicted Part 4 if he wanted to.
