Diamond is not Crash was my favourite part for a good bit. Big fan of the setting and when series dial things back like it does. Especially how it mixes up the pacing and the like.

Hope you continue to enjoy it.

The Vanilla Ice fight to DIO showdown was the perfect rollercoaster ride of emotions. And after all that knife throwing, doughnut making and pavement laying you have just got to love Joseph's final bit of bullshit. :wub:

I assume you'll be waiting for Netflix to add more before moving on to Diamond is Unbreakable.


Balls to that! Will watch 'em via Crunchyroll.

Oh god, yeah, penultimate fight was great (made up for the one before :lol:) and had many hits to the feels.


I had a feeling the Vanilla Ice battle might hit you in the feels after the love for Avdol's return and Iggy Vs. Pet Shop.

Polnareff feeling Iggy die through his sand and realising he's lost another friend hurts every damn time. :cry:

Glad to hear you'll be continuing on your bizarre adventure via Crunchyroll. :wub:


It hit me doubly in the feels because I felt it at the time it happened in the battles, but I also had the knowledge of the show being a unreliable narrator (as it were -though Avdol's return was bordering on the farcical, the grazed bullet thing was so silly I actually liked it) and so I thought they could return at any moment. (A feeling which was further strengthened by the ambulance scene ffs :lol:) And so when they didn't... it was like it happened all over again :(

Loving the art in Diamond is Unbreakable! Jotaro and the lines and colouring look less edgy. The colours almost has a pastel/watercolour feel to them.

I can never truly like Part 4 for doing the absolute dirty on Joseph by throwing in some wildly out of character act that made him a complete twat for no reason whatsoever

It was definitely not out of character.

It most definitely was. Part 3 easily showed how utterly devoted to his family Joseph was. The only justification I ever hear for it was "Oh well in Part 2 he was a perv one time". Yeah, and at that point he was single.

Ta :D

COMPLETELY forgot to watch any of it while I was vegging out in front the TV an hour ago or so :fp: (I am yet to develop watching Crunchyroll on big telly into a habit – will get around to fixing that tonight) And I really could have done with a bit of JoJo in my life instead of the depressing and voyeuristic gooseberry fool that is Tiger King :dread:

If only that magical DIO/Joestar blood could bring them all back. :(

Part IV has such good art direction and early on there are some seemless transitions between scenes that are a sight to behold.

Get ready for Jotaro to become a lot more likeable now he's not the main JoJo. :wub:

Aye, he felt more likeable straight away.

edit: the amount of ads on Crunchyroll TV app :dread: Guess I'll stick to watching it on PC with a adblocker.

Even DIO would be repulsed at some of the gooseberry fool Angelo has done. Lucky our boy Josuke is in Morioh. :wub:

The way he got into the house and strawberry floated with 'em was (evil) genius.

Which of the 2 Evangelion (there's only two others on UK Netflix) do I watch after the main series?

'Evangelion: Death' is basically just a recap movie, so you should be good to jump right into 'End of Evangelion'. Of course if you want literally everything, since Death has a few new shots, then it's NGE > E:D > EoE
