JOJO BIZARRE ADVENTURE FIGURES SERIES

It has sold over 100 million copies, making it one of the best selling manga series in history. The only problem now is that I have to wait for the rest of the series to come out.Jojos bizarre adventure was written by Hirohiko Araki in 1987 and serialized in Shounen Jump. I binged the series in less than a day and I have no regrets in doing so. I feel these first twelve episodes are off to a good start with a strong main lead, a fun supporting cast, and the wildest stands battles weвЂ™ve seen in the series yet.

ItвЂ™s still incredibly over the top, and is very liberal with its use of physics which I know can rub some people the wrong way but thatвЂ™s just the kind of series Jojo is, you either get into it or you donвЂ™t. If you didnвЂ™t then most of the common criticisms of the series will still apply. If youвЂ™ve liked the previous Jojo parts, youвЂ™ll like this one. Stone OceanДЄt the end of the day, Stone Ocean is still JojoвЂ™s Bizarre Adventure. You can tell heвЂ™s going to keep the Jojo team on their toes. I really like how hands-on he is, personally finding more stand users to attack the heroes and going out of his way to get rid of Jolyne as opposed to the more wait-and-see approach of previous villains. The main villain, White Snake (I wonвЂ™t spoil his real identity) is a shady, menacing figure whose presence is made known early on. You can tell Araki had fun writing a bunch of unhinged criminals with character-appropriate superpowers.

The minor stands user villains causing these fights, while not super developed, made for fun opponents. Seriously, they managed to make a game of catch into the deadly mind game. The stands here feel incredibly creative, they bring some new unorthodox ideas that in turn lead to innovative uses of the different prison facilities and well-planned strategies from both heroes and antagonists to overcome each other.ДЄll of this while still making use of the usual Jojo style of finding an everyday activity or object and turning it into a deadly confrontation. JojoвЂ™s Bizarre Adventure Stone Ocean continues to refine and build on the traditional stand battles. Yare Yare DawaДЇinally, there are the action scenes. Their interactions together have a sense of uneasiness but underneath the fire and ice dynamic, it is easy to see that both Kujos truly care about each other even if neither are very good at expressing it. While Jotaro has often been criticized for not having much personality (something I donвЂ™t agree with), we see in Stone Ocean that his stoicism has led to trouble connecting with his daughter. Jotaro also returns and heвЂ™s in good form. IвЂ™d hang out with these guys, theyвЂ™re a blast. Like with many Jojo casts, Jolyne and her allies play off each other well, both in terms of some witty comedy but also more in dire scenes, presenting a great sense of comradery that sells the viewer on their friendship.

F.F is just adorable and thatвЂ™s all IвЂ™ll say about her due to spoilers and the mysterious young boy Emporio makes for an enduring kid that manages to come off as believably idealistic without being annoying. With the supporting cast, Ermes Costello makes for a cool big sister figure to Jolyne with a really interesting stand in Kiss (Smack). You buy that sheвЂ™s a teenage girl whoвЂ™s trying to come to grips with her life going completely out of control and all the pent-up anger that comes with it. She seems hotheaded and brash but she can also be very kind, thoughtful, and even kinda dorky at times. She has a wide range of emotions and reactions which make her fun to watch and easy to route for.

I really enjoyed Jolyne as a protagonist. The claustrophobic feel of the prison where enemies can literally be around any corner makes for a thrilling ride across each episode. A big part of what makes Jojo interesting is the strange characters and enemies the cast meet on their adventure and this prison is filled with a bunch of weirdos. Speaking of the prison, I often hear Stone Ocean get criticized for being stuck in one location but I donвЂ™t mind this too much. ItвЂ™s amazing just how they were able to make a place as dreary as a prison seem to pop with style. The characterвЂ™s facial expressions and backgrounds seem even more detailed and the fight scenes are flared with more color and dynamic camera angles. Follow general, the already stellar animation seems to have been taken up a notch.
