Edit: http://www.animate-onlineshop.jp/pn/pd/1178661/ Listing here confirms the final volume contains 2 episodes. Ep25-26. So that confirms 26 episodes. |

I surely had some fears similar to zetman, considering how fast and furious the pace was for the first episode: this is definitely not a "non manga reader" friendly, and you can see the details for the mood and the visual style (although the face shading looks as if every characters were in front of a window ).
That said, some cuts were a bit too crude (especially Danny scenes, although that saves us from Araki's "love" for animals ), so I hope it is just because they wanted to deal with Phantom Blood intro quickly.

I love that they kept the sound effects. It makes the action look even more fabulous. The visuals are pretty neat too. It looks old school and new at the same time.
As for the plot, I had forgotten just how much of a douche Dio is. "Sup Dio, here's my dog Danny" BOGYAAA "NANI WO SURU DA!?" (they actually fixed it in the anime) What an asshole. And let's not even talk about what he did to that poor dog later on... I'm glad the pace of Phantom Blood is so fast (based on the preview, ep 2 should at least go up to chapter 9) since that means we'll get Battle Tendency sooner. I can't wait for animated young Joseph!

I loved how they made this have the same touch as the manga. Especially how they actually have the words *Don!* and *Bang!* on the animation which the manga was also quite famous for lol.
Jonathan coming into bash Dio was funny to watch.

I havent seen it yet, kinda wanna watch the raws, but i guess i can wait a lil bit more and wait for proper subs. The show's first episode kinda raised alot positive views on the internet, and so far, everyone seems happy with the current pace that the episode is going. I guess they just wanna dump Phantom Blood so badly, and move on to Battle Tendency where Sugita-sama will perform its magic tricks and stupid gags.
Ps : Seems that NANI WO SURU DA has slowly becoming a meme on the internet... kind of funny seeing that line being abused like hell in many BBS and forums. |

I always wanted to see this anime since it is old school shounen that has spawned many memes along with FotNS. Surprised this hasn't been licensed yet, but who knows. I'll wait for proper subs to give my opinion on JoJo.

Nutbladder's release is out. I'm holding off until Tuesday to watch it (and maybe a higher quality release will be out), since the anime club all agreed to watch this.
I've read the first 3 volumes of Stage 1, so I basically know what's going to happen, so spoilers aren't much of a concern right now. For those who have seen it, how many chapters did it cover? That should give a good indication of how far we'll get in 26 episodes.

The first episode roughly went through... the first 5 chapters, so yeah, they really covered a lot with this single ep.
So my bet is that they might be able to finish Battle Tendency with the 26 episodes.
