[8/10/2024] What do you like about JJBA?

[tepid oriole]

what drew you to this series?

[rich plank]

first

[open oxide]

The fights are probably the best thing

[compact grail]

I love Johnny joestar

[next kernel]

gay

[dawn crown]

the hot buff men

[next kernel]

dab me up i came here for the same reason

[hazy marten]

Jonathan when I started then it became just an addition

[rich plank]

i was bored and the anime was famous nd i was like ok lets watch it

[lethal onyx]

@hazy marten, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[wintry dock]

Big gay men

[potent gale]

The tw!nkified buff men after part 4

[mild robin]

The fights initially

[warm oasis]

Style and icon status drew me

Its just one of those shows thats like a necessity

[mild robin]

Then the err art style and the character designs drew me in further when I started reading the manga

[mild robin]

100%

Definitely a series I'd get all my buddies into

[sharp robin]

the artstyle, the story, the fight, the opening, the character (heros and vilains), the waifu, the stand and their musical reference, the theme, the animation, that's what i like in JJBA

[wispy dagger]

Tbh I was bored, and scrolling through Netflix, found it and said "why the hell not"

[mild robin]

Also the idea of a series following one entire bloodline throughout a number of eras is just genius

But in the end, I'm just here for the men

[lethal onyx]

@sharp robin, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[olive owl]

My friend told me to watch it and said he would do something to me if I didn’t

So I watched it and i now love it

[faint cape]

I ACTUALLY FOUND THE QOTD CHANNEL

[lethal onyx]

@faint cape, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[faint cape]

but anyway it was p4 jotaro

[grave musk]

fruity

[brisk tangle]

I like everything about JJBA, the simple start, the insane addition of stands, and the characters and designs. Just honestly quite a fire series 🗣️

[ebon spade]

Its so well written and theres so much content i just had to know everything lowkey

[lethal onyx]

@ebon spade, your Stand Rank is now 3!

[potent gale]

Nvm it's doppio

[rancid fjord]

started watching it to pass time, became obsessed with the way all of the characters were written especially during Caesar's death the way their emotions brought me to tears i was just so engaged with how every story plays out also with the way stands were introduced into the story its just all BEAUTIFUL.

[dusty wyvern]

Uhh, Roblox drew me and my brother and even my dad to this series

My dad got so curious on Jojo

That he wants us to watch it

Me and my brother didn't regret it

[raw sundial]

Generally, the characters, their stories, and their designs.
But I also love JoJo for how unique it is - not just from Araki, but from the media surrounding it too. How many anime have 3D openings or villain interruptions?

[low forum]

It's uniqueness compared to other anime

[raw sundial]

Plus, the execution isn't always great, but the premises of JoJo stories have always been amazing, and that leaves space for so much potential

Pair that with Stands, and you have an insane force for fan fiction and further expansion

Not to mention each Part is relatively short, leaving much untapped potential and pretty good pacing compared to other series

[covert flume]

Everything.

The art, the cool music taste, the story

Just. Everything.

[tropic topaz]

gay

[covert flume]

The whole concept of stands is really intriguing

[tropic topaz]

i like the hot gay men getting into fights

[raw sundial]

no wonder SO fell off

I look forward to seeing where Part 9 goes, because a strength of JoJo's format is that Araki can explore the same universe with completely different stories and characters

My main criticism for JoJo is that cool in-universe concepts aren't always further explored in later Parts, because there's a lot of missed potential there. For example, Pillar Men were introduced in Part 2, but were never mentioned again for Parts 3-6. Vampires never made a reappearance post-Part 3 either, not to mention how little DIO used his vampiric abilities in SDC apart from sucking blood and re-attachiing limbs

Part 8 spoilers: ||I really love how JoJolion incorporated Spin for Go Beyond, as it shows that Araki saw further potential in the concept of Spin, and so the move that had the protagonist triumph was a further development of how the Part 7 protag (Johnny) defeated his opponent||

I don't expect Spin to be a major element in Part 9, but it'd be cool if it appears at some point at least

[pallid brook]

Finished Jujustu Kaisen, my friend is really into JJBA so when I asked for recommendations he obviously recommended JJBA, he even made me watch it from phantom blood to stardust crusaders (finished it today) in order.

[sudden crown]

Came for the music references.
Stayed for the well made story and characters

[lethal onyx]

@sudden crown, your Stand Rank is now 4!

[normal narwhal]

i watched part 2 8 times for one reason OILED UP MEN

[pastel blaze]

the handsome men

and well the plot

[lilac hill]

Everything

[strange schooner]

The amazingly written story

[fresh idol]

The incredibly creative fight scenes

[severe prism]

Story

[stone blaze]

As much as I hate to say it, Giorno's theme is what hooked me initially and I stayed because I love the characters

[lusty panther]

men

[lethal onyx]

@lusty panther, your Stand Rank is now 2!

[lusty panther]

/ more seriously, the story is sooo interesting and the concepts are so original. The characters are also great

[severe prism]

Me its the Story and the interesting caracthers
Sorry im French so my english Not super good

[cunning torrent]

i like pretty much everything, all the characters are intresting and have their own personality and the stand fights are like no other anime fight ive seen before

[meager cradle]

the mind games

Instead of going “oh this guy beat that guy by punching harder”

it’s

”behold the radish I planted with my stand earlier (which doesn’t have a name or even a coherent ability yet this is ep 1) was not in fact a desperate attempt to trip you into the ravine but my secret plan to lure in the (insert weirdly specific dangerous animal that eats radishes which lives in nearby area)”

[little lotus]

The small scenes of comedy

[marsh lily]

Interesting combat

[outer glacier]

The MEN
The juicy MEN

but actually, the story, the plot twists, the times where the stand randomly gains so much strength

[exotic valley]

the queerness, (gayness & oddities) the lack & abundance of it

also, the stands, i heard of them but wanted to witness them for myself

[gloomy garnet]

the power system

[lethal onyx]

@gloomy garnet, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[stable salmon]

The memes

[long folio]

Two things made me watch JJBA one was when my two sisters tried it but stop it and the other one is when a girl showed how to play golden wind on a instrument

[gray escarp]

How araki makes he’s character
(I MEAN STORY AND STUFF!)

[robust harness]

The very zany and wacky feeling of the series as well as the artstyle

Probably the best and most unique art style I've ever laid eyes on

[drifting gust]

Humor

[night adder]

Part 4's anime back in 2016-17

I don't remember exactly what it was but probably the story looked fun and/or the artstyle was enticing (Araki bless)

[lethal onyx]

@night adder, your Stand Rank is now 7!

[night adder]

then I stayed for the jojokes

[gleaming venture]

The style isn't like any other anime I've seen. I love it!

[shrewd yoke]

Giorno's theme

[honest zenith]

The power system is unique and interesting

[golden arch]

The characters

[merry citrus]

its gay

and Phineas and Ferb

[tepid quartz]

I was peer pressured into watching it and I thought the style was neat

[merry citrus]

why do people hate the artstyle?!?! Ive tried drawing Arakis work MULTIPLE times, and I cant really get it right, BECAUSE ITS SO DETAILED, the cross hatching the shadow lines vanishing points its all perfect

[orchid field]

hello

[green panther]

The art

[charred vapor]

kira.

[young void]

The character designs

[dark sandal]

It happens all around the world, not just Japan‼️

[lethal onyx]

@dark sandal, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[dark sandal]

Yay

[balmy fiber]

Really cool poses and official art

[opaque pasture]

everything

[waxen sable]

Hard to say. Since it's pretty much everything for me. The characters, the stories, the internations between them, Stands and how every body uses them differently, etc.

Most importantly the poses and designs, I just love JoJo

[tropic quarry]

Honestly it was the music references, plus the first three episodes were just so mysterious and intriguing that it had me in a chokehold

[wintry dock]

Part 2. And the character designs. Plus the fighting as well, they are very interesting in my eyes.

[stark pier]

My cousins introduced me and yay :3

[fair sky]

My sister said it was great so we watched it in a loud bowling alley during my dad's league nights way back when. I thought the character design, gothic elements, and humor was just fascinating. Once part 2 started I thought the worldbuilding was also just so intriguing

[nocturne flume]

The character designs and art :]

[lethal onyx]

@nocturne flume, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[trim eagle]

I found it from memes and i thought “why the hell not watch it so i get the jokes?”

[mellow osprey]

character (most of them)

[lethal onyx]

@mellow osprey, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[pulsar ravine]

i accidentally stumbled upon it on netlix back in 2021, watched the first episode, realised its the 'to be continued' meme origin, never stopped since

now ime on that jojo brainrot

i finished up to golden wind within a month or so, then continued the manga

i skimmed through so and sbr both in a week because i wanted to read jojolion that bad😭

[young lance]

How the art portrays such weird abilities
Like, all the panels with left side ataxia looked so cool

[lethal onyx]

@young lance, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[olive mist]

I'd seen memes from Jojo, and then I watched this one video that talked about it's artsyle which made me curious enough to watch it

[silent vale]

Literally everything, I got hooked by Part 1. The designs the poses the writing the art, everything

Also Bucciarati

[vernal belfry]

I like the charecters and unique ability conceps

[wise rune]

Curiosity drew me to do the series, but the unique art, unique story, and Araki is why I really like it, 🤍🙏

[lethal onyx]

@wise rune, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[lost lava]

that kakyoin licking a cherry scene

[zealous pasture]

Torture dance

AHHHHHH

[jade oriole]

[lethal onyx]

@jade oriole, your Stand Rank is now 2!

[wintry dock]

The uniqueness of each different JoJo and main villain

[lethal onyx]

@wintry dock, your Stand Rank is now 3!

[drifting gust]

Also the timeline and unique powers

[unkempt hinge]

the link of hirohiko to arts in general (which lead to having a manga with my favorite art style and references)

[lethal onyx]

@unkempt hinge, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[sour elk]

I really love Plot and Animation is just Craaaazyy

[plain owl]

gay and hot people

[warm juniper]

I like the thing that JoJo normalises the most weird and crazy things

[rich rover]

dude the torture dance
I wanted to learn it even before I started jojos but then I just encountered it on netflix so I thought it’ll be fine ig if I’ll try watching jojos

[violet mural]

plot, power system and ost

its what makes an anime attractive

the character designs were pretty good too.

[visual ravine]

jjba video game

[jovial scaffold]

it’s gotta be the musical references and of course the osts and i just love the art style. also arakis character design and his creativity with stands and characters is just amazing

[lethal onyx]

@jovial scaffold, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[jovial scaffold]

i would yap more about it but that would be stupid

[jovial scaffold]

i love that so much

everyone has such different experiences with this question

[copper estuary]

my friend (ty king adrian)

[ivory torrent]

Its an unsettling and entertaining anime

[chilly river]

How weirdly creative everything is, I don't know what Araki was on but there have been so many inspirations for art that I make that came from the series.

[lethal onyx]

@chilly river, your Stand Rank is now 1!

[bitter marten]

tbh the memes

[whole sandal]

memes and musicial refs

[river furnace]

i have a bit of a story for mine

so basically, i used to play a universal time, right? (on roblox)

and my friend is like

"yo, have you heard of jojo's bizarre adventure"

now i didn't know what the fuck a jojo's bizarre adventure was back then

but after a few weeks, i looked at some videos online

and learned about dio

and he was my favourite character and the only character i knew

and after i few days, i started watching it because i thought dio's timestop was cool

[river furnace]

not the newgen aut, i meant the really old one

prime aut

[calm ivy]

The buff men in it.

[idle garden]

Is simple

Is because of the memes

[hollow iron]

Silly and fun

[spiral pendant]

artstyle

[trim shale]

the “To Be Continued” meme

[sullen gulch]

The designs of the characters and their clothes

[stray lotus]

All and the style

[stray lotus]

Same

[elfin ginkgo]

Its format of being split into separate parts

[elfin ginkgo]

That allow for tons of creative freedom

I'd be here all day

[wispy spire]

For me it inspired me a lot for my art style i still look at them sometimes

I use to copy and draw some of the panels back in early start 2018

[sick token]

fashion, characters, and memes

[placid oar]

My friend told me to
