Me think that it's some pics from the OP that will be on the next week.

Kanon · 2012-12-07, 11:38

Looks like a CGI OP once again. Hope it will be as good as the first.

Sheba · 2012-12-07, 13:02

Just to say that the ED is still Roundabout for those who are wondering, with different ED animation. It starts with a rather tear jerking scroll up from Jonathan, passing the torch to Joseph.

Passing the torch is a move that many have tried and few succeeded in manga and anime where fans demands often dictates the direction of a work, Rurouni Kenshin and Hikaru no Go successfully pulled one. I can't say the same about Dragon Ball (Nanoha also tried this in StrikerS but ultimately failed). The point conveyed by Araki by going from Jonathan to Joseph is that the hero may die or retire, it's not the end of the journey as long as the next hero carries on the spirit.

Glad to hear this, it has been used masterfully throughout the show.

So much so that I'm seeing alot of parody vids on Nico using it as the ending for other shows.

My only complaint if I have one is that they removed this line:

Images

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

The rest of the adaptation was perfect. It's the first time I've been that excited about an anime adaptation. I was squealing like a little girl throughout the whole thing. 10/10.

Very curious to hear the impressions of anime only watchers on Joseph.

Ah man, that's one of my favorite lines. At least everything else was alright.

Let's hope they keep the tequila. It's the defining moment for Joseph and the comedy in JoJo.

Ridwan · 2012-12-08, 03:22

I'm satisfied by this week's episode.

garbage · 2012-12-08, 05:21

WOW, never was a fan of this type of anime art, or storytelling but this episode is COOL!!, kept me riveted all throughout, probably the best episode of this show yet for me, and i like this tactical, thinking type Jojo. just great!!! hope the momentum carries all the way to the end .

He is quite a master trickster and cheater, which is why he is a favorite among western fans. You are in for a fun ride with him.

My personal favorite are the next jojo after this tho

Although I'm understand why most fan outside japan favor this 2nd Jojo. He not far for my 1st too.

Blaat · 2012-12-08, 11:59

One episode in and I can already tell this arc will be much better than the previous one although I'm really going to miss Dio and Takehito's performance as him.

Also Erina did not age well, Speedwagon did though. I was also wondering if Nazis will show up, considering the year, and then the preview answered my question.

Well, it HAS been fifty-odd years since the end of Phantom Blood.

Battler-kun · 2012-12-08, 12:51

Plus, she can't into Hamon, too bad.

Blaat · 2012-12-08, 12:54

BTW how old is Jojo supposed to be, in his twenties?

larethian · 2012-12-08, 13:10

Sugita is glorious.
So few anime-only watchers ROFL!

Early twenties if my memory is right.

If the pacing goes right, the first big bad should awaken in the episode that will be aired on the 21st of December.

ellifeedn · 2012-12-08, 18:52

When that happens, I'm just going to laaaugh.
