Part 4 is not the worst but it's seriously overrated. Part 5 is great and some people and having a change of heart because of the new translations.

>>151536319
That's the common Japanese perspective. Worst Jojo is between DiU and SO though

>>151536319
I've heard from nip-speaking gaijin that part 5 has very literature-savvy dialogues with deep vocabs and stuff that adds to the experience. In scanlation, there are couple of things that are lost in translation.

>>151536319
I've heard they like parts 4 and 5, and hate 6.

>>151536864
>>151537459
Nah 4 is pretty well liked in Nipland, and 6 isn't hated it's just where the series started dropping in popularity because Araki decided to write to a slightly older audience but still publish in WSJ so no one read it because his target audience didn't read WSJ. Same with 7 but it switched magazines and wasn't named JoJo for six months so even less people read it. Part 8 is reviewing a lot better than either 6 or 7 though, and thanks to the anime the series is getting popular again so 8 is selling well in addition to reviewing well.

>>151539201
There's like 30 chapters left to retranslate which isn't bad out of a 155 chapter Part. Unfortunately those are the chapters where things get batshit and the bad translations completely butchered.

>>151539201
There's 3 volumes left that haven't been retranslated.

What are the best scans? Where to read em?

>>151539422
JoJo's Coloured Adventure scans on Batoto. They're the first to do a good BW translation of 5 despite the name, but they have another 30 chapters left which is basically just the end of the second last fight then the finale left to translate.

>>151536319
Well, for something with Bizarre Adventure in the title, part 4 definitively doesn't have much adventuring

oh you're that 1 dude who thinks Jonathan is the best JoJo, Sup dumbass.

he's a nice guy who fights for justice. a bit vanilla but that's not a problem

>>151539989
The problem is he's too vanilla.

>>151539989
No one hates him they just like the others more because they have more to offer.

okay but what about jotaro
he doesn't communicate much and just gives occasional 1 liners. if it weren't for the fact that part 3 introduced stands he wouldn't be so popular

>>151540475
He's edgy, that gets him a few fans
His Stand is one of the most powerful, if not the most powerful
Straight up looks interesting, design-wise, I mean
He killed DIO, who not even Jonathan could kill

He's my least favorite Jojo, only tied with Jolyne, but he does have some good points.

>>151539989
>>151540475
I think the answer is that the only choice for best JoJo is Joseph.

Are you people really that stupid? Part 4 is the worst so far!
Hey let's take everything interesting in parts 2 and 3 like motives for the henchmen, a great and interesting main cast, great stands, great fights, epic final battle, and great and atmospheric scenery, and throw them out the fucking window!
Koichi is the most boring, and most shitbag character in jojo so far, and okuyasu and josuke have little to no character at all!

>>151542362
Kira > Dio

>>151542362

>>151542644

Jonathan isn't a bad jojo, it's just that he's plain in comparison to newer jojos that have more complexities and depth to them. It largely has to do with the fact that Araki's writing has improved vastly since Part 1.

Jotaro's crappy one liners are my favorite thing about him. You can tell he wants desperately to be seen as edgy and cool. I'm willing to bet half the shit he told Kakyoin he did was exaggerated.

"Yeah, I totally beat up that teacher for talking smack. Everyone in the class cheered for me too."

This. Jotaro is that the equivalent of a kid irl who moved to a new school, and was bullied so hard at his old one that he resolves to make a new image for himself simply by acting the part. It's sad, but it's also kind of cool when he starts living up to it.

>>151540475
He's bad ass I suppose. He's cool, calm, and rational and the rational part of his personality gets more emphasis in later parts as he's aged. He's great in Part 4, for example.

He grows on you.

When I first got to part 3, Jotaro was my least favorite JoJo all the way up to nearly the end of part 6. (that's saying something, I fucking hate Giorno as a character, he's bland as shit and has little to no development) However, from parts 3, 4, and 6, you can see an actual change. Jotaro does get more rational and more cold, seemingly, but he lets down his wall gradually.

In part 3, Jotaro barely talks, only saying "Yare yare daze" or talking to the enemy about how he forsaw a trap and made another one or something. The most emotion we get out of him in that part is when he finally loses his cool when he sees Joseph die, and when he smiles on the plane at the picture of the Crusaders. Given, those are both very emotional moments, I honestly teared up at the photo and felt some of Jotaro's rage; I honestly do identify with the guy, I keep most of my emotions inside of me, but sometimes things get too intense and I can't manage that anymore, and that's what happened with him.

In part 4, we see Jotaro actually talk more, actively seeking conversation in some instances, even a little less intimidating in some aspects. In part 6, however, is when this all gets really noticeable.

In part 3, at the beginning at least, Jotaro seems just as, if not more, reactionary than even Jonathan; he sees that his mother is in trouble so he decides "whelp I'm just gonna follow these guys to Egypt." In part 6, he is the opposite, actively trying to help his daughter, and even completely letting go of the emotional barrier at the end of his life and telling Jolyne that he "always cherished her".

That's why I and many people like Jotaro, in my view.

Just finished part 5, already started reading part 6

Jotaro's bio actually explains that he isn't really cool, just autistic.

My personal ranking goes 5>7>4>1>6>2>3. I love 8 so far but it doesn't feel fair to rank it.

Can't you just share opinions and argue like decent people instead of simply putting shit like "probe me wrong xD" and "this is objective" in the end of your post and acting high and mighty about it? Shit posting is fun but this is just retarded.

>>151545477
>The most emotion we get out of him in that part is when he finally loses his cool when he sees Joseph die, and when he smiles on the plane at the picture of the Crusaders.
I suggest going back and rewatching/rereading SDC and tallying how many times Jotaro smiles or shows emotion.
I did it as a joke and was surprised when realizing he does it about once or twice per episode.

>>151545513

>>151545612
I said the MOST emotion, not including that kind of thing. Surprise doesn't count as a a major emotion in my opinion, that's the one he shows the most of. Also, most of his smiles are sarcastic or taunting, if you pay attention to the context.

>>151536319

Besides, even with those rules, there's still a lot of moments where he shows emotion that people don't mention.

>>151540475
His 'silent and cool' approach comes off as snarky and lame. Part 4 shows that he shines as a support. He also got one of the most powerful stands in the series that eventually becomes bland compared to the later stands, Star Platinum aged like milk. But nothing can be worse than Giorno, who's barely got spotlight in his own Part and acts like a plank of wood in character interactions after the beginning arcs.

>>151545887
You're right, but you have to admit these kinds of things are rare with him in part 3.

I'm going to assume Part 5 hits you over the head with its message about playing the shit hand fate deals you regardless of what language you read it in. Nothing like a good old fashioned prosing shonen speech about fate, friendship and willpower.

Yeah, he shows the least positive emotion out of all the JoJos (except maybe Early-Mid SBR Johnny). That i'll agree with.
But as I said, you'd be surprised how much he does show emotion if you pay close attention.

>>151536319
pic related on my response

>>151544722
Well.... Yeah? Dio does something bad and Jonathan checks him. The part would've been infinitely worse if for example, Jonathan was trying to get Dio kicked out from the ages of 15-18 or whatever the graduation/mask scene age was.

>>151546158
Eh, the major point of my post was that he develops a lot more emotionally throughout the parts than most people think

>>151546158
Johnny's was kinda more reasonable aside from the same face since he had lived a very shitty life and that caused him to be the negative person that he was during the start of SBR unlike Jotaro whom we didn't know about why he is like that that much.Although I still like Jotaro as much as I love every jojo.

>>151546424
I know.
I was just pointing out that he isn't actually cold in SDC. He just has trouble expressing himself (See >>151545513)

>>151546158
Jotaro and Kakyoin definitely fucked after they got done beating that stand user

Giorno only smiles once or twice after he joins the gang. The OP image is the last time he smiles for a while.

I don't know how they feel about 7 and 8 but since they're the two best parts so far I'd hope they like them.

>>151547006
>you must be autistic to not like the neverending stream of bullshit that happens so that one dude can save his mother

Part three suffers immensely under its pacing. It is popular and is the poster boy for Jojo but really it's not anywhere near the overall series' best.

>>151547058
SBR is pretty well liked but it was less popular than any other part, including SO.
It's mainly due to it 1. Not originally being a JoJo part, and 2. Transferring from Shonen Jump to Ultra Jump in the middle of publication.

JJL is surprisingly popular and well liked.

Scans are just shit in general. It sounds stupid but actually reading physical printed copies of the manga makes a world of difference.

>>151545766
They like every Part but 3-4-5 are the most popular. 1 is liked because it's classic though generally agreed to be kind of weak, 2 is pretty well liked, 3 is the most popular and well known and 4 and 5 are just behind 3 in terms of popularity. 6 marked Araki's start at trying to write for an older audience but he thought it was a good idea to keep publishing in Weekly Shonen Jump so after a couple of chapters when people realised it wasn't going to be the same as 3-4-5 a lot of people dropped it and the series started losing popularity because it was being published in a magazine that the people Araki was writing for don't actually buy. Part 7 continued the trend but because it wasn't actually Part 7 to begin with and rather it's own series even less people read it and eventually it got moved to Ultra Jump which is what Araki should have done from the start of 6 but by then the damage was done and most of the series popularity had waned. 6 and 7 are still well liked by the people that read them it's just that a lot less people did read them. Part 8 is back up in sales and readership though, partially due to winning awards and the anime reigniting people's interest in the series.

I'm sure if Jonathan didn't die then and there and we got to see, say, Part 4's length of exposition for him, he would have been much more interesting during the downtime and would have shown a lot more of the nuances we got to see from Jotaro for example (who was also initially very flat).

Part 1 had great character relations and values,unfortunately Araki didn't have the ability at the time to fully explore them.Too many filler battles and cheesy writing,but the potential was there,and some of it showed,which was enough to make it a great part.
Then part 7 happened and was basically everything part 1 did but better,and it became the greatest Jojo part as of yet.
Part 2 was fun, Joseph is a 10/10 protag,a few other great characters too like Wamuu and Stroheim,but the writting was not the best and the story ultimately amounts to very little.It's extremely good,mindless fun,but weak compared to the others.

>>151557398
Part 4 was actually pretty slow and dragged on for the majority of it, it's just that you have so much fun experiencing that for the first time that you don't notice the bad pacing until the second or third time. The anime actually fixed that imo.

Part 5 is exciting from start to finish with little to no time wasted, the anime (and subsequent translation coming from it) will definitely accentuate that for western viewers when it starts airing.
