Juusan13 said: Ictius said: In addition to the screens that Juusan13 gave. This is from JoJo wiki: "Along with activating his own Stand The World, it was stated that DIO's semi-precognitive abilities that seemed to have resulted from a Hermit Purple-like Stand were due to a Stand power that awoke in the body of Joseph's grandfather Jonathan Joestar. Similar to Hermit Purple, it can produce a psychic photograph by striking a camera. (Although the camera is notably not destroyed, unlike Joseph's usage, implying it to be a more efficient version of Joseph's Hermit Purple) DIO used this technique to track the Joestars and their friends' current location to send Stand Users after them. This Stand is also capable of showing an image present in someone's heart through a crystal ball. DIO used it to show Polnareff one image of Centerfold, as that image represented the pain Polnareff felt in his heart. The fact that this version of Hermit Purple manifested within Jonathan's Body could possibly explain why Joseph has Hermit Purple as well." This will answer later confusions that some may have. The whole Jonathan Stand thing is from Over Heaven, which isn't canon. Oh, then I should double-check things I post. Ignore my previous message. |
thedarkplayer said: Quick summary: Jonathan: hermit purple 2.0 because plot (not sure if canon) Joseph: hermit purple Dio: the world, time stop ability Jotaro: star platinum, time stop ability because plot This is what is canon. The rest is not. We have seen Dio hermit purple since episode 3, it isn't because plot for this. |
| Ughh. Am I the only one that thinks the nen/aura type thing is getting in the way? Otherwise perfect episode. 9/10 -1 for the ugly yellow aura ;( Jotaro is sexy as usual. But talking about asspulls, I think the asspull part wasn't about how jotaro is able to stop time or move in the still. Its about [/spoiler] [spoiler]How he freaking manage to kill Dio with a freaking punch to the leg and Dio being retarded, kicking with an injured leg, which is very anticlimactic.. [spoiler] |
| wow once again this was awesome the opening was REALLY amazing too, didn't expect the edit at the end :) too much censorship (black bars) though. |
Kellhus said: The animation was really spotty and the pacing was ludicrous. But overall a good ep and I'm glad they didn't cut anything. The OP was a real treat. Wow, yeah. Normally I don't complain too much about instances like these, but the spotty animation and character models felt really off. That special Dio version of the OP made the episode great, but even without it it was still plenty good. But man, did anyone else laugh their ass off at this part? http://puu.sh/imkYx/595e4deced.jpg |

| That's what you get for being blinded by rage, Jotaro... |

I will root for theory about ZA WARUDO having all Joestar stand powers. The fact that this theory gets supported all the way up to Part 6 makes it fit much better than the stupid Jonathan Stand thing. |

| oh my god the changes to the op this episode <3 loved the episode |
| Wow, dat opening Since when Jotaro can fly? And why they are sparkling? ¯_(⊙︿⊙)_/¯ ww I want Dio's lipstick, so fab |
Wait, did you just say that Jojo is shit?  |
Hobgoblin2099 said: Champloo_Remix said: I've always imagined it as Dio's The World isn't necessarily Dio's stand. What I mean by that is that the stand is tied to Joestar blood and would've been Jonathan's if he had a stand. I'm about 90% certain that Araki confirmed in an interview that Dio's Stand is The World while Jonathan's is Hermit Purple #2, the one Dio is using in the above pictures. It also makes sense considering that (spoilers for a future part) I don't read the Jojo manga so not gonna read the spoilers but if that's the case then it truly was an unexplainable asspull. Star Platinum just coincidentally is the mirror stand so to speak of The World? Just by chance? I like my explanation better lol. |
| That OP :O I replayed that scene dozens of times already XD Super Saiyan DIO was lol XD They should have given Jotaro a purple aura too :( Kellhus said: the pacing was ludicrous The pacing is good, all the earlier parts were to slow, fights that should've taken 1 ep got 2 or 3 ep instead. This whole adaptation would be better if it was 36 ep instead. |

Because Dio's an overconfident asshole. |

| The whole Jonathan Stand theory seems like nonsense because Stands are physical manifestations of your fighting spirit. Jonathan's spirit is dead. It died when his brain died. And besides, it makes no sense for Jonathan and Joseph to have the exact same Stands. By that logic, Jotaro would have a Hermit Purple as well. Plus, the theory originates from Over Heaven, which is not canon. It's basically a glorified fanfic with Araki's artwork in it, lol. |
Drake1000 said: Hobgoblin2099 said: Because Dio's an overconfident asshole. lol? I expected ZA WARUDO's physical form to be more prevalent in this fight but he's barely using it in the beginning and instead he's going for gimmicky shit like a gun or a pole sign, and when he's directly attacked he's not even using it to defend This fight makes no sense so far. He need to be close for his stand. His stand is a little more strong and fast than Star platinium. Dio wanted to take no risk against the Joestar so he used Time stop. Jotaro only hit him by surprise so far when Dio thought he couldn't move or when he thought he was dead and when Dio was very hurt and so weak. |

Drake1000 said: I'm thinking ZA WARUDO is not as protective as Star Platinum. Remember Star Platinum caught a bullet for Jotaro? Since Jotaro caught Dio off guard, I'm thinking maybe ZA WARUDO only acts on Dio's command, without Star Platinum's auto pilot.Hobgoblin2099 said: Because Dio's an overconfident asshole. lol?

I could see them going for some really abstract elements like since most of Dio is Jonathan physically and Jonathan's body resisted Dio (hence why Dio needs to drink Joestar blood to make the transition complete) that Jonathan's body retains some of his "fighting spirit" so to speak. It's got his DNA in it biologically lol. Idk just theorizing. |

| Yeah, I am not satisfied with the explanation, but it was still a good fight and Jotaro was still put in a tough position. I found Polnareff's brief part to be pretty funny though. At least he gets to survive it seems. |

| "Fetch my leg from over there... Hurry up and fetch it! Behave like a flight attendant bringing a drink and caviar to a first-class passenger!" Lmaoo! The dialog, everything is so gloriously over the top. What an epic and brilliant episode. 5/5 |
 Gonna be a long week |

| Amazing! I really didn't expect Jotaro to do that well all on his own. He's really a monster :O He was fodderizing Dio in some parts of this ep XD How he just REKT him after stopping his friggin heart for a few seconds and then falcon punched him before he got the chance to say "Toki wo tomare" Really BA!!! Ofc that wasn't the end of Dio tho :P He sacrificed getting REKT just to get back to Joseph's body. DAMN!! Gotta love how Jotaro prepared himself stuffing all those books and how Dio was making sure Jotaro is dead even going as far as shooting him. Dat Star Platinum tho XD Also loved how Polnareff didn't shout before attacking from behind. Good development. |

| You know someone on another forum brought up an interesting point to me. You'd think Joseph would've at least tried to teach Jotaro some minimum hamon in this story considering Dio is a vampire. That surprise punch Jotaro landed in this ep could've then been hamon charged and possibly could have ended it. |

 he takes what he's lost and discards what he's won, he's every bit as alive as you and I |
| There needs to be a PART 4 teaser at the end. There just has to :( The last 3 seconds and you see a glorious pompadour being combed XD |

| HOLY SHIT THAT OPENING AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH lmao when Dio called them a tour guide |

| Hope they fill up next episode like how the OVA did , because there are only like 4 chapters. |

| Great episode, but that yellow aura around characters is anoying. They shouldn't use it all the time. |
| Liked last weeks episode better. They really went over board with the stupid flying in the early part of the episode. The opening was FUCKING AMAZING. I was only listening to it in the background while doing something else when all of a sudden TIME STOP and I was like WTF?!?!! |
