General Anime/Manga/Otaku Thread

Eyyy so it was Space Jockey that recommended JoJo. Couldn't remember who it was that said I should watch it because I thought HxH kicked so much butt. So after watching I can confirm that JoJo kicks a lot of butt too, so that was a really good recommendation. Thanks a bunch space pal.

You are welcome, dude!

I really loved the second arc in particular, despite the more typical shonen-y plot, but I really like everything I've seen so far in general. The character designs and music are pretty consistently great which is good. I do wish characters from the first arc were developed more, and the third arc was less 'fighting a new bad dude for an episode or two rinse repeat', but I enjoyed it bunches too.

Yeah, the "villian of the week" formula in part 3 is way more blatant/obvious compared with later parts, and yes, Battle Tendecy was a wild ride as well as the point where JoJo actually becomes.... JoJo.

So, having watched it up to the most recent series (DIU isn't holding my interest as much as the other arcs did but I still have hope and that's all you can have in hard times)

Keep watching my man, it eventually starts to get better!

I can honestly say I've walked away with three important things: the urge to scream "ZA WARUDO" in every serious situation in life, a desire to strike overly fabulous poses at any instant, and another anime opening song constantly stuck in my he- SONO CHI NO SADAME!!! JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOJO!!!!!!!!
