I think what I particularly liked about this volume was the historical context the beginning of this arc drew from.

Curious to see where the story goes from here, so I'll definitely be reading the next volume.moreįrom this arc of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure on, I'm going in clueless having not watched the anime prior, and what a thrill ride it was! I knew the series was multigenerational and would therefore involved some sort of time jump, but with the way the Phantom Blood arc ended, I wasn't sure just how they would continue the plot surrounding the mystery of the mask. Dancing on cactus needles while punching Nazis is not something I knew I wanted, but here we are. The poses are out-of-this-world ridiculous and it's clear from the art just how much this creator loves the male body. I watched 3 episodes of part one and gave up on enjoying Jojo because of how horrible the story line was, but this is so much better.
I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this. Curious to see where the story goes from here, so I'll definitely be reading the next volume. Still this volume has a lot of insane moments which make the story quite entertaining. The proceedings are about as insane as usual, though they feel a bit warmed over since Jojo already defeated Dio, another more famous vampire in the first story arc.
And then gets entangled with Nazis and a strange entity known as the pillar man. This time we jump fifty years into the future with a new Jojo-an intelligent and arrogant Jojo who has to fight first against an old friend who has become a vampire because he can’t stand getting older (I can relate a little, heh). The proceedings are about as insane as usual, though they feel a bit warmed over since Jojo already defeated Dio, another more famous vampire in the first stor On the verge of four stars. Reading volume 1 again has been a blast!.
However, that does not change the fact that this was an awesome arc and a lot of fun to read. Just as with Phantom Blood, the art style is beautiful! The situations depicted can be horrendously graphic, but the characters themselves are wonderful to look at! I love the story, I love the art style.this is just a GREAT series!Īfter having watched Stardust Crusaders, I'm seriously reconsidering which Jojo series is my favorite. Really looking forward to reading Battle Tendency in its entirety! Joseph is just such an over-the-top jerk of a character, and I love him so, so, SO much.
