Jojo's Bizarre Adventure 1x26 "The Man Who Became God" - reaction & review
Added 2023-01-12 11:54:48 +0000 UTCHey everyone! Here I am with Jojo season 1, episode 26!!! I KNEW it!!! I knew he couldn't really be dead, dang it! Wow guys, what an epic finale to this story; Kars took on a whole new form and came pretty close to always doing us in. But dang, the fate that Kars got is perhaps worse than death! It's also conveniently open-ended, isn't it? Their fakeout on Joseph's death, complete with text crawl with time/date of death, was NOT appreciated!!!! :(((( But seeing him show up at his own funeral was a treat. OMG!!! He did get together with Suzi Q, and dare I say, he broke the curse???? He seems like he had a happy life!!! I'll miss Erina and Speedwagon, but I'm glad to know they lived to old age too. I do wish Joseph would chill on his prejudice though, sheesh!!! So we'll be following Joseph's grandson in Japan now?! YES!!!!!! Can't wait! Great ep and great season/arc! Enjoy! ~ MH

2023-01-15 16:35:34 +0000 UTCI know!!!!! I'm so happy he made it! YAY!!! Hahah I've seen the first ep now and will record the next one next week, so I already have an idea of what's going on!!! WOW, what a switch!! The power set was a LOT to take in but I'm really on board with all the new changes and can't wait to see them develop!

2023-01-14 14:19:20 +0000 UTCYay! Thank you! And that's a shame they're underrated, but it just goes to show how much awesome stuff lies ahead I guess! Joseph was so much fun and I think this arc is what really hooked me on the show. Stroheim was definitely there when we needed him! Ohhh ok, hmm, I'll look into the BluRays, I actually already started the first ep on Crunchyroll yesterday! Good to know it's not too bad of a change though. I'll do my best to listen carefully! Thanks so much!

2023-01-14 14:18:13 +0000 UTCThe end of part 2 :/ what a ride! Up to this point Joseph was my favorite Jojo, it’s definitely good to see him survive and break the curse. Luckily, he won’t be leaving us soon. As for the next part. The guy at the end, is he the next Jojo? Maybe. Is he the next villain? Maybe. Hahaha though I feel like you might’ve watched the first couple of episodes already. Also, a new power set comes with this next part. It’s going to interesting to see how you react to that.

2023-01-14 04:06:14 +0000 UTCWell Joseph *is* still alive, so you'll see some light sprinkling of some Hamon... But Hamon's glory days have long been over. :c Enjoy every last Hamon you see from now on, because you'll never know when it'll truly be the last Hamon. In the meantime, let's give something new a spin, shall we?

2023-01-14 02:10:13 +0000 UTCI'm glad you enjoyed part 1 and 2 as much as I did. Unfortunately, they are usually very underraded in the Jojo community. Battle Tendency is one of my favorite jojo parts and Joseph is my favourite. I also think that Strohheim should be included in the list of the JoBros. He was just too awesome. I look forward to your reaction to Stardust crucaders. The Bluray version is the best way to watch Jojo because it uses the right subs and is uncensored. But Crunchyroll is ok too. You just have to listen carefully to what the characters say, then the censorship isn't that bad. Can`t wait for more.

2023-01-13 20:11:53 +0000 UTCHAHAHHAHA that was literally the first thing I thought of as soon as they mentioned a few eps back that she was the baby. I think I actually said "well that makes the bathtub scene so much worse"! It was a crazy ride!!! Joseph was awesome! Caesar was great too, it was a fun era for sure, not without its weirdness, grossness, or heartache, but still fun. Oh no, I don't like the sounds of the jerk legacy coming back, shoot!!!!!!!!!!! Hmm, sounds like we'll get a whole new kind of Jojo once again! Oh wow, no more Hamon!!!! Guess we'll see what the 80s has in store for us :D

2023-01-13 15:14:21 +0000 UTCHi Spadeas! :) Ohhhhh I can totally see the comparison now haha. Oh yeah, another Indy reference! And omg, that's so cool about the Indy / Sean Connery design! Good point that he also looks like modern day Harrison Ford, a happy coincidence I guess. Whoa, I have a TON to look forward to!!! Can't wait!!!!!!!

2023-01-13 15:12:00 +0000 UTCHAHAHAHAHA Yang would be proud of the pun, and yes another, erm, disarming moment lol. Okay cool, thanks for the info, I'll go ahead and watch on Crunchyroll! Poor Suzie Q, I guess it slipped her mind :P Hahaha true, what am I saying, anime is like 90% heartache :P Gotcha, so late 60s. Ah yes, I have done that! It was either JFK or LaGuardia, can't remember lol. HAHAHAHHA omg Kamen Rider Jojo is the spinoff we need! Oh really........the location is a clue....hmmmmm!!! Oh no!!!!!!!!!! :P True, the narrator did say that, but they never said someone didn't go to space and encounter Kars.....!!!!!!!!

2023-01-13 15:10:48 +0000 UTCYAY!!! I feel like this is one arc I'm hearing a lot of praise for, so I'm excited. Ah yes, the name changes - would greatly appreciate if you guys could keep me informed!!! LOL!!! I'm glad you enjoyed it, was really not sure how to dance around saying it anymore :P

2023-01-13 15:08:11 +0000 UTCRight?! I know, I'm so happy everyone got a fairly happy ending though. Knowing that Erina and Speedwagon lived long happy lives makes me so happy! And yes, they're all together again <3 What a couple these two make right! Yes, this Jojo really did hit different! OMG that is SO insightful about Roundabout, holy cow!!!!! I never ever thought of that! Can't wait to embark on this new adventure! No worries, I totally get where you're coming from! OMG those emojis are perfect for Jojo poses! OMG have there been Jojo pose emojis this whole time?! :O

2023-01-13 15:07:10 +0000 UTCOkay! That’s what I’m talking about! Finally! He broke the curse! I’ll miss Joseph. I’ll miss him deeply. I’m so happy! I’m ugly crying. And that’s all we can ask for. Ugh I can never be happy, though it’s the best outcome, there’s something emotional about those “where are they now” subtitles. Everyone moving forward and growing up. But I’m so happy. Erina and Speedwagon lived amazing long lives. They’ve seen a lot of cruel things, so now they’re with Jonathan and George again. And I’m so happy someone as silly as Susie Q could end up with someone as goofy as Joseph. That’s just icing to me. I’m too happy. Such happy, amazing endings. All the Jojo’s were amazing, truly. There was something about this Jojo that hits you cause he’s so relatable and fun. I’ll miss Roundabout but this was an end to a curse, so we moved on from a never ending roundabout. We’re starting something new. Ugh I’m so happy and going off tangent but I’m just so happy with this. Can’t wait for more. This was well earned for a great great grandson. 🤭🤧😤😭 *Jojo pose* 🕺💃

2023-01-13 11:55:53 +0000 UTCBoy, it’s really a good thing that von Stroheim showed up just in time to give Jojo a… hand? Move over, Yang, another one’s coming into the club! As far as where to watch I started watching on Crunchyroll with no frame of reference and those episodes seem fine to me if you can’t find an alternate way to do it. As for what’s IN the episodes… we’ll, that’s another story. How many misunderstandings are because of lack of communication? This all could’ve been avoided if Suzie Q had been a good girl and sent a telegram… “This is too much heartache for one life…” Ma’am, you watch anime. 😏 So the story takes place in 1939, and Jojo’s grave says he’s 19. Now it’s 1987 - which makes him around 67. And he’s flying from JFK to Tokyo. Hey, sounds like something you might’ve done. (The truth is, he was being called upon to play a part in the next Kamen Rider series…) As for the box… I’m not going to give it away… but there’s a clue about what it is. It’s very subtle and has to do with where they were when they fished it out. I’ll let you chew on that. :) Ohhhh noooo… now you have to go to Season 2! 😎 PS: The narrator specifically says in his epilogue that Kars never returned to the Earth.

2023-01-13 02:37:36 +0000 UTCNow you’re on to my personal favorite part Stardust Crusaders hurray! It’s also the part where the copyright name changes really start picking up. Also I gotta say when you said “ he has impregnated nobody” I had to pause because I was laughing so hard 😂

2023-01-12 22:25:46 +0000 UTCHi Hime :) The squirrel attacking the soldiers is a reference to the rabbit in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, an adorable yet dangerous and carnivorous creature. The companion was Esidisi, the two babies Wamuu and Santana. This is why Santana is the weakest of the 4 and why Wamuu considers Kars and Esidisi as his masters. Jojo who is alive while everyone thinks he is dead, is surely a nod to Indiana Jones 3, when Indi falls off the cliff and his friends and his father mourn his disappearance, while Indi goes back up a little further and joins them afterwards. By the way, slight spoiler, but you will see that Joseph's look in Stardust is very inspired by Indiana Jones precisely, his design, bearded as he is, being a reference to Sean Connery who played Indiana Jones' father. Although now, he also looks like Harrison Ford at his age today. Now that his two parts are finished, you will discover what made Jojo famous, discover a new power system that has revolutionized the world of manga, animation and even video games, all by seeing the progress of point which was still weak for the moment, namely more female presence, Jojo who will not be the only one to win and above all, a real team feeling. We had a few Jojobros, but now you're gonna have a whole gallery of them. I will come back to it in due time, but prepare yourself for a trip, which will surely mark you for a long time.

2023-01-12 16:57:40 +0000 UTCI'll never get over Joseph's face on the boat to America with LisaLisa, because that looks like the face of a man who just realized the woman he was too eagerly to peep on was his real mother. xD What a ride part 1 and part 2 was, right? Honestly it's a part of Jojo that I rarely go back to(in fact I haven't even checked out the manga, which the anime does have a few scenes missing from it!), however I feel like Part 2 is the one I would most likely go back to again. Joseph is just so entertaining to watch, and watching him bounce off the rest of the cast in this Part is just always so endlessly entertaining... Though it's weird because while I'd say Ceaser definitely is a great character to pair with Joseph(The Daffy to his Bugs), Joseph ended up carrying this part on his back. Honestly if there's one main character in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure that can truly have the nickname 'Jojo', it's Joseph Joestar. ...However, now much of Part 1 and Part 2's legacy has been left behind in the past, with Joseph Joestar being the last one standing... ....AT LEAST HE SHOULD'VE BEEN IF IT WEREN'T FOR SOMEONE CERTAIN'S JERK'S LEGACY REARING IT'S UGLY HEAD AGAIN! D< ...Keep in mind that for each new Part, the new Jojo Protag will zig where the last Jojo zags... So let's see what kind of new Jojo we have on our hands! ....ALSO... Hope you had fun with Hamon! :D ...Because... Well... This is the 80's, and Hamon was SO last century. Tune in next week for the latest fashion in Jojo Battles. ;D
