Part 5 originally suffered from bad scans when the manga reached the west

2019-08-16 17:37:25 UTC  

But Part 6 was just bad

2019-08-16 17:37:40 UTC  

not Araki's finest writting AT ALL

2019-08-16 17:37:57 UTC  

and my take on Jolyne is that she can be likable but obnoxious

2019-08-16 17:38:25 UTC  

Pucci himself wasn't terrible, it's the characters he interacted with that where

2019-08-16 17:38:48 UTC  

the sons of Dion was a terrible attempt at recapturing the Giorno lighting twice

2019-08-16 17:39:18 UTC  

so the characters just sort of drag the whole thing down

2019-08-16 17:40:14 UTC  

I'd HAPILLY accept DP doing a re-writing of Part 6 with Araki's blessing

I think they should keep the integrity of the story, and I didn't like Pucci because he just felt like another Dio fanatic like Enyaba or one of the flesh bud-infected stand users, and i can't remember his name but the son of Dio that could control those flying rods would've been cooler if instead of having a stand he was just a vampire like part 1 Dio @SideTracker

2019-08-16 17:43:45 UTC  

Because it overall was the same power with the removing body heat thing

2019-08-16 17:44:28 UTC  

Araki by part 5 basically forgot Vampires where a thing in JoJos

2019-08-16 17:45:42 UTC  

im still holding out on a JoJo part set in 1980s Soviet Russia with a Gopnick Joestar and lots of Hardbass

2019-08-16 17:45:53 UTC  

it's a genuinely fun idea

2019-08-16 17:46:22 UTC  

That'd be great but I'm also hoping that part 9 has a weird mix of Jolyne and Giorno as the protagonist

2019-08-16 17:46:50 UTC  

nah i think Araki is falling into a writing loop if he does that

2019-08-16 17:47:05 UTC  

I haven't gotten to part 8 yet but I remember that Josuke 8 is some unholy mashup of Joseph, Jotaro, and Josuke in the best way possible

2019-08-16 17:47:19 UTC  

might as well go full balls and make part 9 set in the future

2019-08-16 17:47:22 UTC  

And I think it'd fit with the theme of the sbr continuity

2019-08-16 17:47:25 UTC  

like a Cyberpunk type future

2019-08-16 17:47:31 UTC  

That'd be cool

2019-08-16 17:47:40 UTC  

let Araki's imagination shine through with the future

2019-08-16 17:47:52 UTC  

Stands that have a cyberpunk aesthetic would be amazing

2019-08-16 17:48:11 UTC  

hell it'd also let Araki explore his weird fashion ideas

2019-08-16 17:48:21 UTC  

and make it not look too out of place

2019-08-16 17:48:36 UTC  

Sailors with IPhones is too much

2019-08-16 17:49:56 UTC  

and Araki could DEFINITELY go full balls with a futuristic setting with a lot of techno shit and what not

2019-08-16 17:50:10 UTC  

I think it being out of place is part of the experience though

2019-08-16 17:50:32 UTC  

make Stands something that's known to governments and create like a Black Ops team of Stand Users

2019-08-16 17:50:38 UTC  

hell

2019-08-16 17:50:49 UTC  

Like seeing Giorno sitting at a cafe with normal people in background while he has his boob-window suit

2019-08-16 17:51:10 UTC  

Part 9 could be about a Future where society is under the thumb of consumerism and government surveillance

2019-08-16 17:51:14 UTC  

And okay, military stand users does sound cool

2019-08-16 17:51:42 UTC  

Imagine La Squadra but trained in the Special Forces basically

2019-08-16 17:51:53 UTC  

Okay you sold me with that one

2019-08-16 17:51:59 UTC  

La Squadra deserved more tbh

2019-08-16 17:52:46 UTC  

yes being bizarre is key to Jojo

2019-08-16 17:52:59 UTC  

but imagine if the whole world is Bizarre

2019-08-16 17:53:23 UTC  

rampant meaningless consumerism of food tech and fashion

2019-08-16 17:53:40 UTC  

coupled with government surveillance in a pseudo police state

2019-08-16 17:53:55 UTC  

Bread and Games but in the Future
