(The following lines, pages and links below were shamelessly ripped from the JJBA Wikipedia website for ease of use. Carrying each summary of its respective media. I do not own the rights the info below. And I am sorry.) JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (Japanese: ジョジョの奇妙な冒険 Hepburn: JoJo no Kimyō na Bōken?) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Hirohiko Araki. It was originally serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump from 1987 to 2004 before being transferred to the monthly seinen magazine Ultra Jump in 2005. The current story arc, JoJolion, started in 2011. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is currently Shueisha's second largest manga series with its chapters collected into 118 tankōbonvolumes and counting. A six-volume original video animationadaptation of the later half of the series' third story arc was released from 1993 to 1994 by studio A.P.P.P., followed by another seven-volume series covering earlier parts of the arc from 2000 to 2002. A.P.P.P. also produced a theatrical film of the first arc in 2007. In 2012 an anime television series produced by David Production began broadcast on Tokyo MX and covered the first two story arcs of the manga in 26 episodes. A second 48-episode season covering the third arc was broadcast in 2014 and 2015, and a 39 episode season adapting the fourth began on April 1, 2016, and ended on December 24, 2016. The JoJo's Bizarre Adventure manga has over 100 million copies in print, making it one of the best-selling manga series in history, and has spawned a large media franchise that includes several novelizations and video games, action figures, a jewelry line, and even snack foods. From 2003 to 2005, Super Techno Arts released both OVA series in North America. Viz Media released a translation of the third part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure in North America from 2005 to 2010, and began publishing English versions of the first two arcs in 2015. Part One: Phantom Blood Part Two: Battle Tendency Part Three: Stardust Crusaders Part Four: Diamond Is Unbreakable Part Five: Vento Aureo Part Six: Stone Ocean Part Seven: Steel Ball Run Part Eight: JoJolion Personally, I think this franchise is great. Probably one of the best Manga/Anime I've enjoyed in a long time. Admittedly, I'm a late bloomer into the series, having only been introduced by several Memes about the franchise. But I don't regret investing my time and money into Araki's work.(Currently own Phantom Blood/Battle Tendency on PSN, and am currently collecting the Manga for Stardust Crusaders. Also beat the game: Eyes Of Heaven on the PS4.) If I had to pick a favorite arc, it's a toss-up between Stardust Crusaders & Diamond Is Unbreakable. Leaning more towards Part Four, 'cause there isn't really an aspect of it I don't like. The characters are awesome, same as the story, and mystery that is Morioh Town is enthralling. My favorite characters have to be Joseph Joestar, Dio Brando, Yoshikage Kira, Jotaro Kujo, and of course: Robert E.O Speedwagon. Oh, there's news out that JJBA is having a Live-Action film being made in Japan. Following Part Four's storyline, which I'm excited for. Live-Action Film News Almost forgot, the OST is phenomenal. Especially the openings & closing tracks. My phone won't allow me to link the tracks from YouTube for some reason.(Wasn't working for my computer, either.) But believe me, is there's any way that'll get you into the series, it's the music. My favorite track is 'Sono Chi No Sadame.' (The opening for Part One.) Have any thoughts on the series? Please, feel free to share your views, whether good, or bad. |

The series is so good, even Speedwagon is afraid. |

Might actually take a while longer than expected for Araki to pick JoJolion back up, since I believe he painted himself into a corner when trying to reinstate the 'Bizarre' in JJBA. (Probably trying to recreate this reaction from the reader, once again.) Spoiler: click to toggle Which I think's a good thing he's focusing on other JoJo projects, like reisueing his old Manga, overseeing the Anime adaptation creation process, video game ideas, and the movie that's coming out in Japan on August 4th. I'm a patient guy, so waiting isn't an issue. Speaking of issues: The third volume of Stardust Crusaders on hardback cover should be coming out in May. Around the same time when the Stardust Crusaders gets an English dub. |
