I'd quite happily agree with that. One of the things that really disappointed me in Part III is that Joseph never got turned back into his young self by Alessi, although Polnareff flinging his gooseberry fool was hilarious. I'd love to have had just a little more of young Joseph's god-tier trolling and battle tactics. :wub:

Best thing about Josuke was that he was quite similar to Joseph. I adored his little money making schemes and bullshit he tried to pull, especially when they involved Rohan. :lol: :wub:

I'd probably go with Joseph > Josuke > Part VII JoJo > Part VI JoJo > Jotaro + Part VIII JoJo > Part V JoJo + Jonathon

All the JoJos manga so far is now downloaded. Now, do I go back to Day 1 or just start from part 5? I'm thinking about starting from part 5.

Normally I would say go from the start, but the anime really is a fantastic adaptation. Maybe read a couple of the earlier chapters to see how you feel, although it will likely be quite jarring as it is very '80's.

I skipped through to the start of part 5, which was infact the end of part 4. I can't believe how faithful the anime ending was given the ending of the Manga. Part of me wants to go back further and see the whole thing, but I'll read on first I think. Just started the very beginning of Part 5 today.

Part V also has one of the best JoBro's in Bruno Bucciarati. :wub:

Some really awesome Stands in GioGio's group and great battles throughout the part. Making me want to read it again and I only just finished re-reading Part VI. :lol:

Edit: Did you go for translated manga or are you reading the raws? A group has recently been updating a lot of the poor translations and used full-colour scans.

This is so good. The first fight with Black Sabbath + Kouichi is probably one of my favourite fights so far. Named above is such a cool Stand.

I take it just watching stuff on Crunchyroll is too casual-tier for you? :P

I can find airing anime no problem on the Leapord-Raws site, but it's more all the older stuff and other stuff.

Awww this sucks, and I havn't even recovered from Crazy Manga shutting down :(

Are there any places where you can download files rather than just view?

I didn't have anything to do this morning, so I spent a few hours watching the first arc of Steins;Gate, up to Akiba changing to be not an otaku centre any more. I thought it was pretty good! It took me a few episodes to warm up to Kyouma, but I think his chuunibyou act has got funnier as Kurisu has become more prominent. I had to adjust my expectations a bit - it has the tone of a hard sci-fi but the content of a soft sci-fi, which is fine, just different - but I'm definitely enjoying it. Thanks for recommending it (literally years ago at this point, but still...!).

Started watching Eromanga Sensei. My god, it is the ultimate case of

Person 1: Hey can I borrow your homework?
Person 2: Sure just change a few things so no one notices

Still good though.

Oh it is, but it is so similar to Oreimo it's practically plagiarism.
