So, it looks like Joshuu's stand is called Nut King Call and the leaves are Autumn Leaves.

Is this from Jojoveller, or new chapter?
Nope, so I imagine it's from the new volume.

Jojolion volume 5 actually.
Speaking of Jojolion, the raws are out now and I just want to beat the shit out of Joshuu.
It took you that long?

Well, he's always been a brat but
EVEN IF IT WAS A MISUNDERSTANDING ALMOST RAPING YASUHO DESERVES AN ORA ORA AS LONG AS GIORNO'S LONGEST MUDA MUDA WAS, AND BY THAT I MEAN LIKE AT LEAST HALF A CHAPTER

Post 19 makes this thread look like a jojolion scenario. You see someone posting your blanket with blood on it and next thing you know you're bleeding from your chest.

That's awesome.
I also just caught up in Jojolion on a whim and
I'm liking it. Obviously little has happened yet and the enemies have yet to amaze me, but it's damn solid as a setup. Seriously curious as to who the antagonist will end up being.

After hearing that All Star Battle will be localized I am glad I held off importing, cause my Japanese is rusty and from looking at the youtube vids, it would have made my head explode.
Oh, really? Awesome. I wonder if they'll have to change any of the music references, it seems like that was always the main barrier in the way of localized Jojo (yes Prince I am looking at you).

Sweet. Hopefully these name changes won't be too huge, but it's a small price to pay for localization.
...still upset about no FF though. >.>
Fun fact I just learned: the kanji that make up Josuke's family name "Higashikata" (東方
have an alternate reading of "Touhou" and are in fact the same kanji that ZUN used in the name of the Touhou Project series, since in either case the kanji's meaning is "eastern". Since JoJo part 4 started in 1992 and the Touhou games started in 1996, the choice of kanji for the latter may well be a reference to the former, especially since there's a fair number of other JoJo references in parts of the Touhou series (including a direct quoting of Dio's "how many times have you eaten bread" line, name-dropping the Red Stone of Aja, a time-stopper who throws knives, etc.).

So are we gonna stop calling him ACDC or are we gonna treat this as a name change to continue the eternal war of just what his actual name is :v

I don't care if Araki himself comes to my house and writes their names in English in his own handwriting in front of me, I will always use the direct same as the band spellings.

It's the sane thing to do.
So "Zeppelin", then?

Please don't call Hermes "Ermes" PLEASE.
If they go with the JoJoveller spellings...
Oh? And what do these include?
SolarKnight

Well, for starters two different spellings for Bruno's last name in the same book :V

That's so strange. Even knowing it's being written right now, I can't believe that's the name.

Bleh.
was a better name.
New chapter impressions
Might be the creepiest Jojo chapter since Kira's bath with his son. It seems like it could be a lot darker series than the previous, even with very little gore used. The characters are just that fucking creepy. Fuck Joshuu especially, he's a total scumbag. Can't wait for Jo2uke to ORA ORA and bubble all these creepy fuckers.

Not reading part 5, huh? I can only assume you go to /vg/ or something.
Kira & Valentine are the two best antagonists, IMO.

Yeah, pretty much despite the unique ability Araki just made it become a normal punch ghost.
Haha, it's mainly because I'm waiting for the retranslation project to progress further. I've heard the translation of Part 5 isn't as hilariously terrible as DUWANG, but that it kind of butchers a lot of the character and makes everything seem flat.

Don't say things like that, Diavolo. He is a small boy. (mute the music)
Two of my favorites anime combined!
Actually I haven't seen the Jojo anime but close enough.
