He was goddamn menacing and deserved more screentimeThe scene where he jumps into the soldier's body and inflates him is still the most fucked up part of JoJo for me.
This is also true to part 3 DIO, they both only get interesting in the final fight(tho kars lore was good and im glad jojolion brought back the pillar men somehow)It was a letdown that Kars was nothing more than the final boss. Kars had the potential of being an engaging main antagonist but he just let his two subordinates do all the work while he stands in the background.
Yes it was, it's kind of like he's prototype Joshu in some ways because there's nothing redeeming about him.
Wait when was this?
Oh okay.
As expected, didn't last long.
Six's biggest issue is the characters are...kind of unpleasant.
I mean besides Annasui, Weather Report doesn't come out looking too good, and don't forget F.F. killed someone (though Etro is a child predator so...).
The most honest soul in Stone Ocean is Dragon's Dream.
... did i forget that or was it cut from the anime?
FF gets a pass cause it's developing a conscience... i see her as a FF9 black mage :/ that said, possessing the body of the dead is fucked up, even if they were a child molester o- oBut Hermes and Jolyne maybe a jerk, but its mostly because they pursue self destructive path because circumstance.
The Girls is rootable anti-hero, but Araki felt the need to add woman killer & girlfriend abuser.
Jolyne: DPS
You forgot it, because I remember the Toonami thread being disgusted by it when the dub came out. Hazamada is definitely a worse person than Rohan is, but he's never painted as nearly as crazy as him.
Annasui- ks/dps that gets carriedJolyne: DPS
Hermes: Tank
FF: Support/Healer
Emporio: I don't know, Speedwagon-like commentator?
Weather: Reverse-Vegeta/Ikki
Annasui: handicap
Jôtarô: Goku during the Freezer arc
i find it funny people vilifying rohan, he just got his own honor code like Giorno, but doesn't kill people i guess? You can do much worse than stealing people's history with Heaven's door.You forgot it, because I remember the Toonami thread being disgusted by it when the dub came out.

Rohan's an eccentric taciturn asshole with his own code. He had to be hospitalized by Josuke to turn good, but he's a decent person behind his BS. Hazamada on the other hand is a shit bag whom made somebody stab his own eye and should most likely be institutionalized before he completely kills or rapes somebody. He's pretty much my least favorite reformed character from that part, which is saying something because I can even defend Yukako.i find it funny people vilifying rohan, he just got his own honor code like Giorno, but doesn't kill people i guess?

Aw man i was screaming NO all the way through Cinderella
Aw man i was screaming NO all the way through Cinderella
And he's friends with hazamada cause...yes?
Y'know, being friends with a mafia boss is totally in character for Koichi, cause he's got no sense of danger
She pretty much balanced out towards the end, though she definitely has a violent streak. It's weird because I want Yukako to be happy, but I also want Koichi to be safe.
At the very least Giorno son of Dio has never tried to hurt Koichi, just rob him. They even managed to bond over a stand battle.Aw man i was screaming NO all the way through Cinderella

Lmao yup wtf was that
for the same reasons jolyne isn't safe with annasui, Koichi isn't that safe with Yukako o-x he's not her property after all...she rubs me the wrong way cause she used the equivalent of a love potion on him :/ that's mind controlShe pretty much balanced out towards the end, though she definitely has a violent streak.

You do bring up a very good point with Yukako, I guess I'm nicer with her because she never murdered anybody, but she came very close by trying to set that woman on fire. You know, yeah she's fucked up like very fucked up.Lmao yup wtf was that

Morioh needs theraphy. Tonio seems to be the only sane dude there and he makes people explode from the inside
Plot twist:Koichi is part5 jobro
I gotta be just, it's not cause Annasui's issues bring up societal fuckups with it that Yukako is less fucked up, we don't know if Yukako would stop before commiting murder cause we never got the chance to see it(i don't think she'd let Koichi live if she got cheated on lol).Both would suck in a relationship and represent a real threat imo >_>You do bring up a very good point with Yukako, I guess I'm nicer with her because she never murdered anybody, but she came very close by trying to set that woman on fire. You know, yeah she's fucked up like very fucked up.
I do read Yukako as capable of being a loving person, she's just twisted in a very unhealthy manner. Some of what she did came from her lack of confidence, and yeah if Koichi cheated he'd be planted, no way he'd survive that. With Annasui I just never read him as a loving person or capable of it. He never really does anything nice for Jolene. Yukako at least cooked and made clothes for the kid and helped him study.I gotta be just, it's not cause Annasui's issues bring up societal fuckups with it that Yukako is less fucked up, we don't know if Yukako would stop before commiting murder cause we never got the chance to see it(i don't think she'd let Koichi live if she got cheated on lol).Both would suck in a relationship and represent a real threat imo >_>
On yukako's defense, she did conquer him without kidnapping him the second time. But it'd only work in a healthy way without the love potion makeup schtick...im surprised he never got a restraining order
There is no smart person in that group.It's difficult to believe that Koichi is the smart guy of Josuke's group.
And that's why I love them
And he watches his parents having sex.
Yukako is complicated. She loved an image of a perfect koichi that wasn't on par with the reality(aka: a model husband that had nice grades and will have a brilliant future). Her abuse came from she wanting to mold Koichi inot her prince charming because that's "good for him", idk how much does jealousy come into play, but doesnt seem to be the only factor in all thisI do read Yukako as capable of being a loving person, she's just twisted in a very unhealthy manner.

if they were narancia levels of smart kira wouldn't last a week.
And best character. And he has the best fight.
Welp
And best character. And he has the best fight.
And he has one of the worst endings... He goes back to his house with a dead father, and a vapid mother in love with a man that he will never be able to explain was not her husband nor that was killed... With no source of income...
Honestly, more than Giorno coming to Florida, I kept hoping through Part 6 that we would have a Hayato cameo. Something like "The Speedwagon foundation paid for his studies, he majored in a great university and is now a renowned filmmaker/journalist/lawyer/mollusk scientist". I don't want to think the group abandonned him to his own devices once Kira was dead.
To take care of a teenager that can sorta carry his own weight by himself o- o
I think that's part of the reasons I'm not a fan of Jôsuke. The way he talks to Hayato through the fight, the way no one consoles him after Kira is dead and he picks up his bag, the way he's not here in the last group photo shot... It felt like they were excluding him from the group because he wasn't a stand user, thus not cool enough to hang around with them.
So pretty much she looked at Koichi the same way Shaiapouf looked at Meruem? How he liked the idea of Meruem as the perfect ant king and wanted to stunt Meruem's actual personal growth because it's what Pouf wanted and not what Meruem wanted? I never even thought of Yukako as like that until now. Jesus.Yukako is complicated.

Yup, the same way he was idealizing her as a sweet cute harmless girl. Only she tought it was her duty to "fix" him/ bring him to his full potential, while he was just scared af and wanted to gtfo until stockholm syndrome hit.So pretty much she looked at Koichi the same way Shaiapouf looked at Meruem?

I don't know how anybody can prefer annasui and his DUMB FUCKING SHOE SOLE MESH SHIRT to diavolo.
Diavolo is infinitely the better design.
Jotaro: "I have enough pocket money to either buy Jolyne a birthday present or visit the aquarium... Decisions, decisions..."
I think I like Yukako because she actually saw things in Koichi, but there's a lot of things to that relationship that are entirely too twisted to be comfortable with. I don't mind protective, but the undertones of a lot that was done by her for Koichi aren't really healthy. I would hope that she cooled down at some point, but who really knows. Araki isn't really one to expand too much on what he puts out there, by which I mean there's never going to be a side story about it.Yup, the same way he was idealizing her as a sweet cute harmless girl.

I guess the silver lining is that, for him to become the shining prince she wanted he pretty much had to step up and confront her, which end up benefitting both of them... she was the first one to see the potential in him to become better, but the way she goes to express it to him is completely fucked up
Tomoko would dominate Shinobu and it'd be the hottest thing ever.Imagine the world in which Araki ended DiU by having Hayato's mom get together with Josuke's mom.
