    The biggest travesty of the Dub is that Dio never does Wrrrrrrrrrrrry

    Giorno drinks a single espresso in one of those tiny coffee cups
    Jolyne exclusively drinks shitty gas station coffee and takes it black
    Johnny makes coffee over a campfire and drinks it black while Gyro just eats the grounds like some kind of gremlin
    Other Josuke wears the coffee cup like a hat and then suspects whoever served it to him of being an enemy stand user trying to trick him into scalding himself

    I've been watching the Diamond is Unbreakable dub on Toonami and it's been really good.

  • AnzekayAnzekay Registered User regular
    yeah I've been really impressed with the dub quality so far

    The Shigechi episode had a ton of premium localized shit-talk. I’d link a video, but the YouTube account I used for that seems to have imploded.

    Kira’s voice is very well done. Dude does flat-but-horrifying very well.

    I capital l Love that Reimi is the person that gets to finish Kira off for good, and I also love that it’s a real team effort

    Everyone gets a hand on the ball of “telling Kira to go fuck himself”

    There is one thing that bums me out about later JoJo though, and it's that Stands existing means everyone just gets regular names and the silly music references are saved for the Stands

    I want a villain-of-the-week quartet themed after the Ramones, goddamnit!

    Don’t worry, there are still characters named after Music as the series goes on.

    the people's names in part 5 aren't music, but they are silly in a different way

    Pannacotta Fugo is one of my favorite dumb JoJo names.

    I can(‘t) believe there’s a character named Hot Pants.

    I started Golden Wind
    I find it very very funny that Jotaro went on this mission to find a family member and apparently decided "yeah he's okay I guess, but you know who I REALLY like? the little guy"

    Ive heard people theorize that Koichi reminds Jotaro of Kakyoin, and he’s still harboring guilt for Kakyoin dying. So he’s doing stuff/saying things he wishes he could’ve said to Kakyoin.

    That’s all fan theories, tho.

    Honestly I think it's more likely that Araki thought Koichi was super cool

    He's the only character that gets multiple stand evolutions!

    God it's so wild that Rohan can just use Heaven's Door to write "Koichi can speak perfect Italian" and it works.

    Heaven’s Door is super powerful.

    He can add languages! He can make someone defy physics just because they were told they would! He can send a POS stand to Hell! He can avoid having his name changed to dodge copyright lawyers!

    i mean listen, i love josuke with all my heart

    but if i'm picking one of the DiU boys to go on a trip on the other side of the world to take care of an important recon mission it is definitely gonna be Koichi

  • Mr. GMr. G Registered User regular
    I wonder if Araki would be able to articulate his feelings on masculinity, because they seem very complex and I actually doubt he can

    Anyone else I would find it very intentional pointed commentary on what appears to be the two male leads of Golden Wind both having "boob windows" in their outfit designs, but I suspect his explanation would be "I dunno, it looked neat"

    Turns out the actual explanation is "I wanted it to be as erotic as possible".

    Araki has stated that his inspiration for his art style was Greek statuary and 80s action films.

    That explains so much.

    one thing i really love about Part 7 is how it dramatically increased the percentage of non-humanoid Stands

    humanoid stands are cool, but so is a winch in a weirdo's mouth or a rainbow stormtrooper mask

    You can definitely see the influence of big muscle action heroes in the first 3 seasons of JJBA. By DiU, body types look a bit more real, and yeah, Part 5 is pure Italian fashion and nomenclature and genius.

    He says that he loves dogs, and that villains harming them is therefore a great way to establish how evil they are. Up to you how much you want to believe that.

    even for a humanoid stand Tusk is so different from all the other protagonist stands, it's great
    D4C is the most 'standard' stand design in the bunch and then everything else is super distinct from each other
