A story told without telling...

I hope your stupid trees fucking catch on fire

This makes the 17th time my browser has crashed opening this

There is nothing quite so deadly as being Joseph's buddy.

This thread is gonna die, why make it at 4 in the morning?

Damn, did his art change

That's what monthly releases and pages more than twice the size will do.

You can tell Araki loves to draw too.

...

ok so, how did he heal his hand that spice girl cut off?

>part 5

he looks so feminine in this picture

>diavolo used to be a polite boy and would probably get taken in by Buccellati
Really activates the almonds.
>implying 3 and 6 didn't have worse shit talk

don't worry about it

"araki forgot"

...

fuck this shit, here i was liking part 5 more than the first 4
I wanna see if part 7 would live up to the reputation, heard it's masterpiece or something, did the monthly schedule reduce the mistakes?

what's the worst asspull in this series?

The people who talk about it being a masterpiece are idiots, it's great but there's still some issues. There's less inconsistencies like Giorno's hand but there's still a ton of dropped plot lines and awkward pacing. The good bits are more than enough to redeem it though, there's a reason it's so highly regarded. And there aren't really any more inconsistencies like Giorno's hand for the rest of Part 5, and there are very few in 6 as well.

>Masterpiece
It's overhyped.

Star Platinum: Za Warudo

great, they're all pretty good with their own faults then, that's fair

ger

That's not an asspull.

How is SAME STANDO out of nowhere not an asspull?

There aren't a lot of genuine asspulls that are also egregious in this series, a lot of stuff like Jotaro stopping time aren't as spills but just poorly foreshadowed. The most recent one in memory was Josuke's liver and Norisuke's arm during the Damo fight, they healed magically after Damo dispelled Vitamin C but not for Josefumi and Kira. Given it's place in the story Araki clearly didn't want either of them to die or suffer lasting damage so he knew they'd be fixed afterwards but it just feels lazily done. To be fair Josefumi and Kira were propelled away from Damo who still had Kira's liver in his pocket, while Josuke walked over to where Damo dropped his and physically retrieved it, but it still feels a little off.

Joseph's hand against Kars

I don't know about the worst but I hated how Joseph was asspulled back to life just for the sake of his role in part 4

This. What a godawful way to end Part 5. Also Giornio saving himself from Purple Haze's killer virus is retarded too.

That's not an asspull just unsatisfying. It was known for like 35-40 chapters before it happened that whoever controlled the Arrow would win. And even after Giorno got the Arrow it still took another 3 chapters to beat Diavolo. The term you're looking for is Deus ex Machina, which are often asspulls but not always as GER shows. Doesn't mean it's not kind of boring though.

GER isn't an asspull just boring.

>implying there was any other way to defeat diavolo

>king crimson and epitaph are so horribly designed pure bullshit is the only thing that can defeat them
really shucks my corn

I mean it's not a game so balance isn't important, but the way Araki decided to defeat it certainly left a lot to be desired.

>implying it wouldn't be easy to cuck diavolo without that nonsense

>out of nowhere
Are you new here? That's been discussed plenty of times.
On the other hand, this and this are actual asspulls.

what about SUUTAR FINGAA?

capcom pls nerf dio

king crimson is only really good for 1v1 right?
why couldn't araki write the entire team wearing diavolo out or tricking him?

Gyro has a fat ass

More like Gayro

Johnny gave Gyro the succ 100%

why is Araki so inconsistent in drawing asses

>johnny will never blow you

Why even live

He can avoid literally any attack, the only reason he didn't capitalise on it more was because he was autistic about people seeing his face even if they were going to die immediately. There's still ways around it but they require the other combatants to not die instantly after an erase, which was exactly how Diavolo used it. He's also see most of their tricks coming because Epitaph, so they'd need master level keikaku to predict how he'd change his actions in erased time based on his own prediction, which might be going too deep.

Any more info on the incoming Jojolion Volume 15?? Cover art and whatnot.

>
I saw people looking kinda down on Talking Head/The Clash While I do think it's a weaker fight, I post a question.
If you had a chance, would you change/remove the Guard Squad? The way I see it, you could have moved Carne to La Squada to keep Trish having a fight, and then replace Cioccolata/Secco with the Fugo arc.

His Guard Squad outside of Tiziano could have killed him. But Like Cioccolata said, the boss was a hard man to find. Even if the Escort Squad went down, nothing could was stopping Cioccolata carpet molding Roma. KC doesn't have the range to donut a helicopter out of the sky. Even if he did donut Cioccolata, he'd probably be able to survive it with Green Day's bollocks.

>Having touble with Dio.
Really?
Gas Hol players.

Now that the dust has settled, who hurt Diavolo so much?

Himself
>hurr i'm rich as fuck but won't buy Prozac

Now that's something that could be called an asspull, as well as Star Suck. The biggest asspulls in all of JoJo? I don't know.

>not being able to beat DIO
fucking scrub

...

I'd rather post romances.

dat tiny head

Why are they frowning so bad but still with heart pupils and blushing hard? that's fucking hot

Abbacchio learning his place.

tsundere

I don't see him in a trashcan tho

>Abbacchio is the only one who didn't fall for the Giorno meme

That's where he goes when you're done raping him.

Buff cop fisted by Sardinian twink

we are coming close to the end

>random guy will be the MV

Honestly, while I thought I was going to hate him, Abbacchio being the only character that didn't get some hamfisted 'WOW Giorno is so great, he's so much better than Buccellati' internal monologue made me appreciate him a lot more.

Araki really dropped the ball on making Giorno genuinely impressive so hearing other characters sing his praises was grating as hell. He handled it much better with Jolyne and Johnny.

Giorno should get props for making Bruno feel alive again

Even then their relationship should have been emphasized more. They rarely spoke to each other.

Diavolo wouldn't allow it. Towards the end of "The Mystery of King Crimson" he even said himself that fighting the whole gang would be trouble so he had to stay low and run off. That's why he's always killing them one by one in secret.

They hardly even talked. Giorno was the one to put things into motion, but him and Buccellati only spoke one-on-one three times I can remember: Once when they met and fought, once when he was explaining how the gang worked, and once (briefly) in the car where he revealed he was dead.

...

How? At no other point in the series do two characters have the same exact stand abilities.

¡Hola!

>multiple volume buildup
>asspull

It's not an asspull, it's just shit. Kira's BtD was the real asspull, it came out of nowhere at a convenient time without any foreshadowing whatsoever. But it's forgiven because the arc was good.

The way Silver Chariot Requiem was defeated is so fucking dumb.

>hurrr durr some arbitrary weak spot at the back of every single persons head that only they can see and if you hit that orb, the stand is instantly defeated

>The D'arby brothers have identical stand-abilities, with Terence having an additional mind-reading ability
>DIO has a Hermit Purple
>The rats have the same stand
Dumbass.

Both requiems qualify

...

Idiots who don't know the meaning of an asspull and/or need to reread
Fair
On thin fucking ice

As asspulls? Because neither of them are. Boring Deus ex Machinas? That they definitely are.

>Only one Mexican character in SBR
>dies

hey does anyone here have that picture of haato glaring
i need it for my reaction image folder, thanks in advance my dudes

I don't

Pretty much. Giorno just came across as a plot device more than anything.

Isn't that the chick who sang the gurren lagann theme?

No but you can have a tiny Rai.

Yep. She's been into JoJo for years and has an unhealthy love of Jotaro. She's done artwork of Jotaro beating her to a bloody pulp and has said she wants Jotaro to tell her to shut up then ORA ORA her face. Araki seemed very uncomfortable when she interviewed him because she couldn't stop sperging out and being creepy.

that diego on the right unexpectedly caught me very off guard and now i'm really turned on

Araki really seems to be unlucky with interviews.

There's also that one where another fujo chick is telling him her creepy fantasies about Josuke fucking Jotaro while poor Araki just wanted to talk about his story and characters.

i always thlought that in a silent way was essentially the fucking same as echoes act 1
even if you told me there were some minor differences, it doesn't really matter because the same general idea is copied

It seems mostly like female interviewers, the guys are chill as fuck but the female interviewers he gets all happen to be the worst kind of fujos who don't understand how creepy they are rather than normal fans.

It's not women, the problem is with creeps. His interview with CLAMP (The women who wrote the fucking egg-baby doujin) was very engaged and respectful on both sides, where they asked good questions about his work that showed they were invested and curious about it, and he was clearly enthusiastic to answer them. They acted like old friends.

>implying araki didn't have a good fap after that interview

I've new found respect for Jotaro's hate for women

Oh no! You hear a voice from the sewers yelling for someone! What do?

>The woman who sang the fucking gurren lagann theme did all of this
Well aint that a surprise.
