Oh man this is my favorite show rn
How did you find/get into Jojo's Bizarre Adventure?
I have an internet friend who was begging me to watch it back while part 5 was releasing episodes. He kept telling me I'd absolutely love it (he was right), but I told him the only thing that was stopping me was the fact that I had no streaming services. Then he gave me the link to a shady anime website and boom, new obsession.
Which part are you currently on? Did you start with the anime or manga?
Part 8! I was caught up until mangadex went down and now I'm a chapter behind, oops... I started by watching the anime, and then after part 5 I read everything else that hasn't been animated yet. Mostly because anime makes it easier for me to tell what's going on and connect with the characters better.
Do you have a favourite character? Favourite stand? Favourite part?
My favorite character changes often, but for a while I've been in love with Risotto. I love a lot of characters so it can be hard to choose sometimes lol. My favorite stands might be Killer Queen, Sticky Fingers, and Star Platinum. When it comes to picking a favorite part, that's a bit difficult because I like all of them for different reasons.
I'll put my opinions under a spoiler, not necessarily because there's actual spoilers but because this is going to be LONG and rambly.
Part 1 was a good introduction to the show and is a more tame way to introduce the bizarre aspects. Everything from there evolves in a natural-feeling way and eventually you don't even realize how weird the show gets. Part 2 is one of my favorites because I sorta connected with Joseph and I guess the part has sentimental value to me? Fucking love the music from that part too. Part 3 was painfully long but to be honest I enjoyed it. It was fun seeing them deal with a million stand users in a million ways, and then either befriending or beating the shit out of them. Same thing with part 4, but I liked part 4's villain a lot more. Kira is one of my absolute favorites and I love his whole personality and design. All of the p4 characters are fun and have interesting designs, and I liked the art style change in the anime. Part 5 is one of my favorites character design and story wise. A lot of it's really funny but it also just punches you right in the feelings :,( It's also one of the only parts where I liked the dub; Mista's english VA is PERFECT. I am really excited for the part 6 anime mostly because of Anasui. He sucks as a person but for some reason I love his character (and he's fun to draw). In p7 I adore the dynamic between Johnny and Gyro. Their interactions are hilarious and, again, a lot of the character designs in this part are so cool.
To anyone who hasn't read part 8, I really recommend that you do. It's weird as hell and kinda hilarious. My favorite p8 character is Norisuke IV and for some reason every time anything slightly bad happens to him I cry But yeah, it's long but I personally have enjoyed reading it and I really hope DP will continue animating all the parts because p8 would be so much fun to see animated.
Have you created any characters for the JJBA fandom?
Yes! I have a few JJBA ocs, my favorite being Hotdog Water because he's my weirdest one. Sadly, I haven't designed any of my ocs stands because I'm terrible at stand design and have no ideas
