New episode soon.We're entering the Ultra Jump era.
They better not cut Gyro's backstory short
>>291785775Gyro’s dad was an asshole who was completely wrong btw
>>291785775Anime only fag here, Is this part really better than part 3 as they say or it's bullshit? Just asking.
>>291788034The start is basically equivalent to early Part 3 but the switch to monthly seinen unlocked something in Araki at that moment. That probably plays a part in why the arcs so far have been going so fast.
>>291788255As a part 3 enjoyer, should I be more hype?
>>291788391Pretty soon, yes. I think it really gets going when Diego gets his arc, which is in this cour.
>>291788391If you don't enjoy all the arcs after the one that is about to start then either the anime completely fucked them or you're a tasteless pleb
>>291788391The anime did a good job with the Boom Boom family but not so great with Oyecomova. The next battle is not great either. After that though is when SBR hits and doesn't really let up until the end. You should read the manga for part 3 too, the anime really stretches it to fit 48 episodes.

STEER BOAR LAAAAAAANSTEER BOAR LAAAAAAAAAN
When do you guys think the OP will catch up with the story? There are teases for the halfway mark or so, so cour 3 or 4?
>>291788034I'd say its better by the endEntire story is just two dudes traveling across America, fighting everyone they come across, but it works. Its about the American spirit. Its a lot more about the characters than other Jojo stories.Like in part 3 Jotaro is extremely one note, he never really has easy going moments with the gang, you don't get a good grasp of him outside of being the stoic guy that beats people up. But in SBR the story is all about the characters personalities, its almost the core of the story.

>>291789189End of cour 2 - Stage 6
Fucking hell, this season is so dogshit that I had no choice but to pick JoJo, even though I dropped the manga somewhere midway through Stone Ocean. I heard that this part is pretty self contained? When I learned that it's about an endurance race it piqued my interest since I love endurance race plots.
Are they gonna adapt chapters 15, 20, 21 and 24 all together?
>>291789559That + Stroheim fight
>>291788034It's certainly more complex than Part 3. Whether or not you like that complexity depends on you.
Is ultra jump when the art improved cause Araki had more time to draw?
Can we expect to see tusk next ep or not
>Jump era SBR>"Wow cool, the spin can do anything">Ultra jump era SBR
>>291790423yep, especially if Stroheim is covered here
The JoJolands...
I got covid or some shit so I just want to lay down 24/7, I'll get up once the ep drops and comment it, it's my favorite part of fridays
>>291790423no, tusk will be next episode
>>291790438It's kinda funny they started collecting Jesus body parts like Pokemon badges
Upon rereading the story, its honestly impressive the amount of times a character gets shot in the face like 15 times in the same chapter, and next chapter they're fine
>>291790988Johnny getting shot square in the forehead by Ringo and not dying was genuinely one of the most bullshit moments in the entire series.
>>291790988>>291791188Hol Horse also did that shit.Hell, a random ass civilian was also shot in the face by Hol and that guy still survived.
>>291791394Every chapter is Gyro or Johnny basically having a machine gun unloaded into them
>>291791421Gyro never uses this ability again, by the way.
>>291791188spin can harden body.
so I had the steel ball run ending on loop, removed loop, started autoplay and now I can't stop listening to this songSPOILERS about the president, big spoilers, napkins involvedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-FQZdsRZXg
>>291791512spin can turn back time
>>291791512>>291791421No, STEEL BALLS can harden your body. Johnny didn't have one of those on him.
if dubs they skip gyros backstory again
alright im curious first timers/anime only fags, any theory or idea you had about what might happen in the next episode?
Reminder that Hamon can:>Hypnotize people >Control muscles including someone's heart and brain>Stretch and contort limbs, from making your arm have more inches of reach to fitting a whole ass pidgeon on someone's mouth>Magnetism, even on things that aren't metal>Produce enough heat to burn>Grant you the ability of seeing the future>Makes you immune to hypnosis, if you pump someone with Hamon they will also stop being hypnotized >Make you stronger>Heal>Potentially bring someone's humanity back>Grow plants>Produce sunlightHow does it stack up against the Spin on the bullshi meter?
>>291791927Spin is infinite so by definition is more capable of bullshit.
>>291791927the spin can do that
>>291788034>>291788391Are you a part 3 anime or manga enjoyer?
>>291791927The only ones on that list I would call bullshit are the hypnotism and the future vision. Everything else makes a basic level of sense when you think of Hamon as electric life energy that kills vampires. Spin is way more bullshit than that.
>>291792165Magnetism is also bullshit, it only feels slightly appropriate because Hamon is usually visually depected as electric-like, but otherwise it has nothing to with "life energy".
>>291792290Electricity and magnetism are inherently linked. It was actually really smart of Araki to make that connection.>Hamon is usually visually depected as electric-likeIt behaves exactly like electricity. It conducts through materials.
Is next episode when SBR will finally get good or does """the best jojo part""" need even longer before it stops sucking
>>291792351>It behaves exactly like electricity. It conducts through materials.That wasn't really established until part 2.
>Be competent>DieSBR is such a luck/fate based series
>>291792396Like 2 more weeks
>>291791927Honestly spin can do basically anything. If there's anything you assume it can't do, then it can do that as well.I would list it all out but I feel like most of it would be spoilers at this point
>>291785775>One eternity later...
>>291792534Looks pretty damn hot.
>>291792534I love how they're all blue.
>>291792534He actually looks good in this style.
>>291792500>can't kill vampiresUseless novelty ability.
>>291792534KINO
>>291789537Diego wins the race by the way
>>291785775I don't like the anime art style
>>291792534First time this nigga gets drawn in a quarter of a century and he's the first old jojo character that actually looks better in the new artstyle
>>291792534he looks the best out of all the characters araki drew
>>291792534this is the last time araki drew diavolo btw
>>291792437the frog punch is the first depiction of hamon we see and it involves the hamon conducting thru it to go into the object under
>>291792534Fuck he looks so damn good I cannot wait to get the acrylic stands for all these bad boys from the jojo world store I am very much anticipating Howlers confirmed status as part 9s main antagonist in just a few days It’s happening whether you like it or not
>>29179253426 years is crazy
>>291793149I'm actually curious as to what he's gonna do for part 9 representation if that's not the case. Spoil the real main villain? Have Jodio as a placeholder or something? If i were him I'd put Howler in even if i didn't actually to have him be THE main villain just to not leave the spot empty nor spoil everyone, so i guess that's what he'll do
>>291793200No need to guess when it’s plain as day he is clearly the main antagonist of part 9
>>291793149Maybe.
>>291793200They'll stop at 8, MVs aren't officially given the title in merch until their parts end.
>>291793220Marine boss victim
>>291793220I mean, he's definitely gonna be important in the long term. He's themed around the number 8 in opposition to Jodio's number 9, Eclipse Eight's mask is clearly meant to resemble November Rain's mask, and his mist power mirrors NR's rain. But still, I'd say it's just as likely he'll be a "rival" third party character like Diego and Jobin. Maybe that's what Araki's going for, have him fulfill the same archetype as those two except he'll actually triumph over the "main villain" and be the actual main villain. But then again, maybe not and he'll just lose to the marines in the end
people saying howler is the main villain are totally crazy. we're clearly building up to some passione-esque mob which controls the US government. howler and his land have been targeted by the real villain this whole time
>>291789537It's pretty self contained since it's a brand new universe not connected to the previous parts at all, there's just some fun references to Part 1 - 4 stuff for fans. The endurance race thing exists but doesn't constitute the entire part, only the early and later sections if I remember correctly.
>>291793328>yeah this dude is thematically and narratively the main characters foil whos family lineage is directly responsible for the whole fucking plot of the story, but he’s just a mid boss don’t worry, also ignore that panel where someone called him the final boss, it’s just a red herring trust me!I think Jobins existence ruined a lot of people’s brain unfortunately
>>291792534First time ever the older characters look good or even better with the new artstyleThe Kira from yesterday was absolute dogshit
>>291793398Araki is really putting a lot of time, effort and thematic weight into writing this jobber huh?
>>291793430>also ignore that panel where someone called him the final boss, it’s just a red herring trust me!Dunno about everybody else, but that panel is precisely why I think it's like a 50/50. It shows that Araki himself is aware of the expectations around the character, and is deliberately leading people on with it. As such, it's natural to assume he'll either subvert those expectations or subvert the subversion
>>291793222>Joestar birthmarkAnon...
>>291793706?? That's Dio. I meant look at the logo, it only goes to part 8.
>>291793222Lol this is proof araki's part 9 nu artstyle is terrible. No one could recognize immediately who this character is if not for the star birthmark
>>291793725Oh, OK. My bad.
>>291793464I never said he was a jobber. Like that other guy said he's likely a tertiary villain like Diego and Jobin (who each had their own plot relevance, backstories, goals, etc like typical villains)I would completely agree with you if it weren't for the US government being involved in attacking him and anyone else involved with the lava rock. There's a third party involved here which you are totally ignoring, and we're only just starting to see them a 1/3 of the way through part 9. In each part the main villain is always the strongest and most threatening force for the protagonist. Even with the thematic weight Howler is not as much a threat as the US military. It would make sense for some passione-esque mob to being controlling the US govt just like in part 5, which part 9 is a homage to>>291793430>also ignore that panel where someone called him the final boss, it’s just a red herring trust me!Idk what panel you're talking about but some english fan translation isn't cannon
>>291793767The pic was blurry, it's ok. Here's a higher res of the store concept.
>>291793793>ghost touristsS-spooky...
>>291788034>Is this part really better than part 3part 3 is absolutely great, It was my favorite part until 5, THEN I read part 7 and I had to put it above 3, shit's great. My ranking: 5 > 7 > 3 > 4 > 6 > 2 > 1
Now I wanna see Anasui in this style.
>>291792534puta
>>291788034I read the manga and it's definitely the best Jojo experience I've ever experienced. It does start a bit slow though
>>291793100Anon, electricity doesn't work like that.
>>291794207All right, don't mock me, but after finishing stone ocean, after 20 years of otakulife, I decide 'one', yes, 'one' rolemodel, bc when I was 13yo edgelord, I was too edge that there's no thing like role model on me, bc I thought being me is enough;breathe; I want to becom pucci ;breathe;
>>291788034SBR is the best part without a doubt. The begininng is a bit rough, it gets really interesting after they beat the next villain.
So when does it get good? So far it feels like part 3 with cowboys, and I fucking hate part 3.
>>291789321>Like in part 3 Jotaro is extremely one note, he never really has easy going moments with the gang, you don't get a good grasp of him outside of being the stoic guy that beats people up.that's why you have other cast members to fill that roleand Johnny is just Koichi of this part
>>291788391nah
>>291785775Holy shit, the haters predicted this!?!?>entire episode of Gyro's boring ahh backstoryPLEASE GIVE POCO LOCO ANIME ONLY SCENES! We Black folx hate Gyro
>>291794395fuck, you might actually like this part
>>291794480This one's for the fujos.
>>291794395Also btw I'm trans and my favorite anime part is Stone Ocean and I love the JoJolands manga and Pucci is the best villain because he's white and I love Black people hehe
>>291794294Huh?
>>291794480Stone Free is the perfect stand to rope niggers btw
>>291788034Every part is better than part 3
So how do BD sales work with this show if it's on Netflix?
>>291794508Meant to reply to >>291794384 btw
Sex with Johnny
i love jojo fridays
>>291794857>>291794910Is Johnny the uke of the year?
>>291787982SOON OON
>>291794952Chumi-chan a cute
I remember the final battle being like 1/3 of the manga. So I guess like 5-6 episodes?
>>291794910>love seeing Johnny getting fondled>dislike Gyro as a characterIt's like watching the woman you love getting fucked by another man.
>>291794960I hope he gets lots of fanart when he finally arrives.
>>291795018Cucksister...
>>291795018wow, you dislike Gyro? he's so charming!
>>291795091I don't like his jokes. Plus, I can never forgive him for fucking over Lucy Steel.
>>291795018Gyro may be a domestic abuser, but he makes Johnny happy
>>291795091>Gyro could've given Johnny the hugs and kisses he deserves>instead he punches him on two separate occasions due to tard rageHe deserved to die
>>291795160Araki would never let Johnny be happy.
>>291795160Gyro is extremely autistic please understand...
Diavolo art will overshadow tonight's episode.
>>291794602Hilarious cope, SOtroon.
what AI generated art is unc talkin bout >>291795318
>>291795267He has a cute loyal twink crying and begging for his dick and he just punches him. I'll never forgive that dumb Italian.
>>291795384>>291792534
>>291795440he locked in once he saw diego making eyes at johnny
>>291790481The Jojolands
Meryl will be the part 9 true villain.
>>291789396>>291789372>>291789337I don’t want them to translate gyro’s jokes in any way that’s decipherable to the west. I like them being nonsense.
>>291795469>this artist's borderline porn animation of Gyjo getting raped by MT and DiegoInteresting.
>>291790481>>291795504
It’s a shame that only a few jojo parts are period pieces. Araki’s great at making things that don’t take place in present day.
>>291795631I wanna see him write something taking place in ancient times.
>>291795593not my cup of tea but they animated it pretty well
>>291795469It took Gyro until Sugar Mountain to finally get his act together and start using himself as a human shield to protect precious Joni-chan. Should've been doing that from day one
>>291795707Because that's when he realized he was in love with him duh.
>>291785775JSBR left me kind disappointed. he doesnt do anything with the american west setting and has too many fights.
>>291795721It should not have taken him that long
lately i've been thinking of jonathan nonstop....he's super cute
>>291795550I don't think that one in particular is decipherable in Japanese either
>>291795504why do they ALL look the same?
>>291796110Because you are an idiot newfag.
>>291795841Imagine the sex
>>291796175i don't think jonathan's type is twinks, tho he loves his blondes. Funny to think these two are kinda the same person but not really
this was such a good stretch of SO, I love PSYCHO Report
ITS UP!
Lil Gyro
>>291796308/a/ agrees : this is the worst episode of SBR so far
Gyro, how old are you now?
Why did they sentence a boy to death anyway lmao
Scary Monsters!
>>291796315He looks like a lesbian.
>>291796498Italians are weird.
>>291796508Why is he (Diego) so fucking slutty
STROOOOOOHEEEEEEEEEEEIM
These episodes feel so short, it's so fucked up
One of the funniest To Be continued’s in the entire anime
Stroheim VA is backStraizo VA as Gyro's fatherSpeedwagon VA becomes Narrator
>>291796620>do not repostYo @FBI get him!
Another great episode desu.
>>291796627:P
>johnny can't feel anything from waist down>shown multiple time sitting on his thighs???
>Speedwagon VA is now the narratorWhat do WE think? I did notice that the OG Narrator sounded really old in Stone Ocean, so it is what it is...
To me, Jojos Bizarre Adventure is a cold dark bus ride to school on a winters morning in 2013 with roundabout playing in my headphones, extremely nervous about getting my first blowie but feeling kinda like a chad that it was happeningTo me, Jojos Bizarre Adventure is the ifunny groupchat I made and did cringe rps with, the late nights we spent talking about our OC stands and Talkin about our favorite parts, and meeting that qt Jolyne cosplayer irl.To me, Jojos Bizarre Adventure is spending hours upon hours on /a/ hyping up OUR GUY jobin, schizotheorizing for literal years only to be yeeted by a spray can, and those cursed clown edits.I hope we get a cardigans stand one day
Solid episode. They spent more time on the backstory than I thought they would, but it didn't hurt the pacing. The transition to the race was cool.>>291796597That's one hell of a cliffhanger.
