JoJo's Bizarre Adventure ERA |OT| Stand Up and Pose
- Thread starter Matsukaze
- Start date
It's my favorite arc, no complaints really.
New poster
Based Coda hype, nice. Sounds like they're going all out for my boi Giorno.
Black Sabbath is pretty tame, don't know why you're worried about that.
Metallica is the big one.
This is one of the most exciting prospects of a new jojo anime for me. Hopefully we get more than one.
It would be awesome if they were able to strike a deal with King Crimson.
I like how it ends with Polpo, that's like the "Giorno isn't a Joestar" moment and it's the moment that got me really into Vento Aureo and Giorno's power set.
THE POSING, THE FUCKING POSING Y'ALL!!!!
I mean Giorno got his posing genes from Dio. What do you expect?
If a stand is a reflection of ones self then this means Giorno wants to make love to himself...not surprising. Giorno is probably the most in tune with their stand pose wise.
Based on memes I always felt that it peaked at part 2 a bit, but Dio's SDC theme, Kira's and Rohan's themes are absolute bangers and Part 4's music as a whole is pretty damn good so I can't complain that much.
Kira is what 25 eps in? There's going to be a lot of "What's the Part about?" posts I swear. Anybody that doesn't appreciate this part or Kira don't deserve either of them. Kira is fucking great though. I love how David Pro sprinkled him in a bit in the first ep. They better give him, Rohan and Koichi good voices, I won't stand for any Koichi slander.
I just know there's going to be so much fun when people realize who my avatar is. & the context of it. I'm going to get such a big laugh during scenes like when he's licking the hand at the bakery shop & act like that was the inspiration for the avatar.
But yes, I really hope people don't get impatient & be all "WHERE'S THE MAIN PLOOOOTTTTT" when this is meant to be more slice-of-life mixed with Twin Peaks & a murder mystery...which was great, because on the podcast the ToonamiERA group makes, one person who hasn't seen Part 4 was talking about Part 3 & was all "I wish it was more like a murder mystery"

Part 4 is Seinfeld x Scooby Doo x Twin Peaks with stands and it's one of the reasons why I love it more than SDC. It's just more intimate and you get to know the overall cast better.
Agreed. The overall cast is just so much better, especially when SDC had such a dull cast overall, save for Old Joseph (who gets bonus points for being the one entertaining character from Part 2) & Polnareff. Previous parts either had a good Jojo but dull side characters or vice versa. Part 4 is the first part where the whole main cast is memorable, plus the start of the stands being way more "out there".
Should be mentioned the main ToonamiERA reaction is that Part 3 was better than Part 1, but not as good as Part 2.

I imagine Joseph has a lot to do with it plus too many stands of the week and like half while not bad aren't really memorable
Part 2 is mainly held together by Joseph and some moments being over the top in my opinion, but as an overall arc it's worse than Part 3, Part 2 is also paced better, nobody would like 48 eps of Part 2. The Duwang Gang is such a fun cast of characters, thankfully the cast grows as the series goes on unlike SDC.
Earlier timeslot = better ratings, and maybe better animation
Chibi Giorno: "On this episode of Giorno and Mista's Standopedia, we present to you the Metallica fight."
Chibi Mista: "Buy the Blu Ray to see it actually animated."
IMO so far it's Part 3 > Part 4 > Part 1 > Part 2.
2 only holds together for Joseph and the music. Wammu is the only decent villain and Caesar is a chump/jobber.
