Drama

CEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I know that feeling, bro...

If a character you don't care about dies it doesn't mean anything. If you wish a character hadn't died that means the writers did a good job.

why is david bowie crying

Because otherwise you wouldn't care.

...

Literally because anime. Anime only does it to emulate life, however. Sometimes shitty things happen that fuck up everyone else's lives too

>playable character gets permanently removed from your party for any reason
why do jrpg devs do this? I don't give a shit about your japanime cardboard cutout characters, just let me play the game how I want

>character gets put in a death scenario
>they're very obviously going to die or are shown "dying"
>there's no real way to survive
>they just show up later and are okay
Stop wasting my time with this shit.

go play a western RPG then, nip devs don't give a shit about your fanfiction unless the game is specifically designed for you to self-insert

>the protagonist dies to the final coss

*boss

Especially annoying when you put a bunch of time into grinding them.

Made even worse when they sucked at first, then you spent so much time grinding to make them passable, and then whoops they're gone

Thanks for spoiling the entire game fag

>character you really like dies
>they bring them back as a zombie with a zombified version of their voice

>teamfriend sacrifices himself to save you

Because drama only works if there is emotional investment involved.

Too bad for them though that nowadays I just drop games that kill off the characters I like. I've got no patience for this shit anymore.

>Character "dies"
>Gambits by becoming Liam O'Brien
>Never is a party member
>Goes back to being a trap
>Does nothing the entire story

Exactly what was the point of Makoto?

Valkyrie Profile 2 was chill for giving out rewards when a party member dies/leaves. Gave extra rewards if you grinded to certain levels.
Dylan is the best example. Shit but great if you grind him then so when he transforms you get a sword that will get you trhough the game.

Why did Caesar get treated like such shit

>Does all of the same training as Joseph, always shown to be a little stronger
>Finally gets his first real fight on the show and is promptly jobbed the fuck out
>Tries to pull a Hamun sacrifice like his grandpa but it ends up being completely pointless since Joseph would have gotten the antidote anyway
>Joseph, or anyone else, never mentions him again after part 2

It's made even worst in the anime since he's made to look like Josephs super cool bro who tag teams the pillar men with him in the intro even though that never actually happens

>final boss spoils 3 decade old manga
What did he mean by this?

I was just about to read this you faggot

So this is just a JoJo spoiler duscussion Thread? Ok.

*cross

>4 Pillar Men
>JoJo is the one who beats all of them

I always hear people saying that part 2 is better than 3, but 3 at least had JoJo's allies all get time in the sun and have their own extended battles

The thing I never really got is that the story acts like they're super cool bros and all that but at no point do they really act like friends and only really help each other out of necessity, and often openly dislike each other and fight

Then he dies and suddenly Joseph is crushed and must avenge his best friend

??????

Suzie Q was also just as out of nowhere

I agree on the lack of references to 2 in part 3 as well. Joseph's experience with vampires, ripple, his knowledge of his grandfather are all directly relevant and yet he never uses any of them. Why didn't he fight vanilla ice as well? Why is Polnareff the one to defeat a vampire with sunlight instead of the member of the cast that has that as his main specialisation?

Why does he never teach ripple to jotaro or whatever considering he basically learned it in 30 days? Why do Jotaro and co seem completely unaware of it when it would have been useful at numerous points in the adventure?

You would think Araki wanted to have Joseph take the back seat since it's not his part anymore, but then why does the rest of the story act like Joseph is the main character, with Joseph doing the most talking, being the face of the party, being the one talked about by Dio and so on? If Joseph didn't job in the final fight and Jotaro didn't have such a prominent role in it, I would not blame anyone for calling Joseph the main character of Part 3.

I really don't get Joseph in part 3

>but at no point do they really act like friends and only really help each other out of necessity, and often openly dislike each other and fight

They got pretty friendly with each other during that oil tower thing, then more or less became bro tier once Caesar read JoJo's mind with the icicle rope. They only fought after that because Caesar got all autistic about running into the Pillar Mens house which was pretty shitty writing

>consistensy
>Araki
Pick one

>best boys die every part
>le ebin ruse master lives forever
It's not fair.
Ceaser's character was too rushed. He went from a dick to "our guy" to dead way too fast. It felt really out of character at the time when he just storms off to go fight.

Literally all they needed to do was have a little scene during those episode sightseeing intros where Joseph sees a bubble and looks sad

Instead, Caesar ended up having the worst sacrifice in the series

>or some say cossm

>le ebin ruse master literally outlives every fucking major character in part 3 despite being like 70 when it starts

It's been forever since I read, rohan comes back after the next time loop, right?

To be in a bad game with tutorials explaining what ladders are.

I think hes still alive when made in heaven happens

iggy ;_;

Stands > Ripple
Also, Joseph had a natural affinity for Ripple. Jotaro showed none of that. Joseph also didn't get into fights that often because his Stand was weak shit. Had The World not been such an overall powerful stand with a strong ass ability, he could have probably taken DIO but the unfortunately the last person that did go 1v1 with DIO before Jojo showed up got donut'd.

He is, literally outlives Jotaro and Jolyne

DIOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Star Platinum conducting ripple would have been so fucking OP Dio should have been shitting himself at the mere possibliity

>the detective betrays you

It's probably a reason why Araki didn't give Jotaro Ripple.

What was the point of keeping Joseph alive but not Kakyoin and Avdol

didn't he at the end? I thought it was dumb otherwise that dio died by getting punched in the shin

>the detective is actually the big villain

Ita symbolic joseph broke the joestar curse thats why he lived a long life

>Constantly brutally murder and torture dogs throughout the story

>abloobloo dickhead dog died so sad ; _ ;

Fuck off.

Honestly Kakyoin was a big loss. He would have had a lot of potential as a returning character who could serve as a mentor type and have significant character development with a time skip, much moreso than Polnareff who was honestly not really that interesting a character and just served the role of the fool who constantly falls into traps to keep the plot moving.

No. SP is just stronger than TW so their hits colliding resulted in stand destruction for DIO and killed him. Didn't help that DIO's legs were still busted.

...

Dio's leg hadn't healed yet, as such, The World's leg was also weakened.
Star Platinum's knuckles are said to be harder than diamonds, so it broke The World's weak leg, and the break ended up travelling upwards and tearing the whole thing apart.

Nope it just actually was that dumb, his stand just fucking explodes for some reason which makes Dio explode :^)

Kakyoin/Jotaro should have been the Main protag/best friend pair that actually lasts longer than one part

Please tell me these are actual lines from the show.

Your best friend was the killer the whole time. Midway the game you find out he ask you to join. If you join you now go against the rest of the party and cast due to your betrayal. You don't join he has some kind of followers who kill all over town and you gotta hunt his bitch ass down and his crazed followers.

>30 years old
>Spoilers
I guess we can't talk about who Darth Vader really is either?

BRUCE WILLIS WAS DEAD ALL ALONG

I don't understand the fascination with Ceaser. He wasn't a bad character, but plenty of shitty fans treat his inclusion like its some great Greek tragedy.

Same with Kaks but to a lesser extent.

The body explosion thing didn't actually kill him. If left in the shade DIO would have regenerated eventually. Vampires in Jojo can only be killed by two things: sunlight and ripple.

THE POPE IS A CATHOLIC

I guess so since Okuyasu dies

The best part is that The Sixth Sense hadn't come out yet in Japan, and Araki spoiled it in part 6. He trolled his entire reader base for a meaningless one-off gag.

Not vidya related, but similar. I was actually talking about this with a coworker yesterday.

>Bridge to Terabithia
>Story has a character that dies for absolutely no fucking reason whatsoever, no buildup, no foreshadowing, NOTHING, in the last chapter for a quick shot at drama

Fucking why

Their stands collided and The World literally broke.
A person dies when their Stand does, so yeah.

>series goes to shit after Part 2

I want more young Joseph bizarre adventures!

He was just cooler than Joseph so his whole character felt like wasted opportunity.

Zeppeli was cooler than Jonathan too and died way too early but at least his death had an actual impact and was remembered/referenced afterwards

Sounds like a great man

>being an animeonly
The first 3 parts are the worst ones.

But not forever.

Lmao what a kick in the face to dom fans

SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Posting best zeppeli i see

>Person you really like dies

Why do life keep on doing this?

He looks too much like a fuckboy

>wears a dragonfly, a symbol of immortality
>Is a Zeppili
Not even symbolism and thematic imagery can save you, Gyro.

...

Did not know hitting those 2 buttons together auto-submits.

Was going to say that Joseph actually DID use the ripple a few times in Part 3.

I cried.

When I read the manga and he died, I thought "well that's a bummer".

The anime years later went all out though, with the music and the voice acting turning it into an actually sad scene for me.

>tfw your husbando is stuck in a shitty series
>and the author ruins him by making him a filthy wife cheater

Joseph deserved his own series!
Caesar, Lisa Lisa and Kars can come with him too

So he'd have an excuse to bring his lil' sister user

You can't tame Joseph, he's like the wind

>Character can die in the first game
>sequel comes out
>what, you thought we'd actually keep that ending canon?

I mean I preferred to save Zelos, but still.

>My sides xD

Joseph really is a Joestar. No matter how epically hilarious and silly he is, he'll always care about his friends to an ungodly degree. But even when he loses them, he'll continue going on for their sake.

And then crash a plane into an immortal god, slamming him so hard into a volcano that he ends up in space.

Good thing the Nazis showed up to save him towards the end.

Kakyoin and Avdol had nothing to go on after defeating Dio. Polnareff dying would have been for nothing since to avenge his sister he needed to survive dio.

That's because he is the best jojo

But he is a stupid gaijin. I want more Jotaro.

>Part 4 is good
Fuck right off with your filler to end all filler

Just like real life and real friends

>Man lies, cheats, and steals for 30 years
>Surprised he cheated on his wife with a woman younger than his daughter

Best Jojo here

Well what do you expect from the true mastermind behind the series?

Part 4 would be way too short without the filler fights.

>best boys die every part
Polnareff didn't

guys

what if we have a zeppeli

that doesnt die

guys

>>Man lies, cheats, and steals for 30 years
What are you talking about? no he didn't

Baby's first shock death.

>Playing that shitty game War Thunder
>Strolling around in muh Tiger, expecting nothing and still let down
>See friendly Panzer IV getting his shit kicked in by several sherman
>He's trying to repair despite it all
>Figure fuck it and put myself in front of him, shielding him with my sheer size alone and start eating up solid shots
>Eventually get fucked to the point of non return but little Panzer-chan managed to get away in time
>A few second later I actually receive a thank you in the chat

It was all worth it.

>liking polnareff
iggy and avdol deserved better, they were the true bros. Advol didn't even get a major fight which is bullshit.

Wounds on a person are reflected on their Stands and vice-versa.

Dio took damage on his legs from Jotaro, and it didn't heal properly because he aggrivated the wound to squirt blood into Jotaro's eyes. This means that The World's legs were also equally injured.

Dio was stupid and kicked with a wounded leg, and Jotaro punched at the same spot. The World couldn't handle the impact of the punch because of where it was struck, so it began to crumple apart. The normally fortuitous Dio took the reflected damage of his Stand and exploded into bits.

>character is a piece of shit
>he dies by plot or you can kill him off

LATER FUCKFACE

dude lets just keep killing off the Zeppelis after always making them the best characters that wont get old

>Complete idiot gets an incredibly bullshit power but is too fucking stupid to use it properly

>DAMN I MUST BE A GENIUS

...

Literally the worst part 3 character who outlived the best ones

>character made to appeal to most people dies
>Most people complain
>if he didn't die, the story wouldn't develop
Who?

It wasn't the plane that triggered volcano, but rather Kars punching the red stone of aja with ripple.

Well Pucci is what happens when someone smart gets a bullshit power.

Gyro is cooler

And he's just as dead

except he was not a Genius

>Stroheim survives getting his shit slapped multiple times against ridiculous inhuman enemies
>Dies in fucking Stalingrad while fully decked out in cybernetic bullshit

FUCK

Talk about a flat personality.

He was the main character.

>Can stand against Kars multiple times and cause his defeat
>Cant beat a few slavs

wew

if you read the manga, characters lose limbs and shit and then are magically fine next panel desu

I think the icy shit in Stalingrad fucked him up

But he's still cooler

>Player character is actually the bad guy who does bad things off screen
>Doesn't make any sense, whole story full of plotholes

> Female character death turns you on
Fucking zombie hounds, I swear.

>your waifu leaves the game and never comes back, basically making the game unplayable
Why?
FuckD-Dog

Reminder that Lisa Lisa would have wrecked the shit out of Kars if she didn't get rused hard

The one time being against the empress, yeah.
What's the other one?

The whole family except Susan dies at the end of "The Chronicles of Narnia", talk about a downer.

She does come back though, if you do her boss fight 11 times. Are you not ready to fight for your waifu

How the fuck does David perfectly nail every death scene? Even Josuke's grandpa dying was heavy.

He is literally the best JoJo character

Wait what?

Joseph tried to combine Purple Hermit with the Ripple against Dio by using it as armor under his clothes

yeah, you can get Quiet back after fighting her 7 times and choosing to not kill her every time.

Against DIO. He wrapped Hermit Purple around himself with the Ripple running through it. If Dio had touched him at all (I think Stands count, seeing as they are extensions of the self unless Automatic or bound to something), that would have been it.

Yeah I sure do love comic relief man who causes everything bad to happen but still gets more screen time than everyone else as the good characters get turned into donuts

Oh God, I am going to play MGSV all night

araki is a faggot

Do you realize the chaos you'd unleash by having Kakyoin running loose with all those MILFs in Part 4?

not him but the idea sounds amazing

You have shit taste desu
Polnareff=Joseph>Kakyoin>Abdul>Iggy=Jotaro

Why is Gyro so cool?

>hamon gets shafted
>spin gets shafted

Bloody Stream still best OP

Literally a mary sue

5 > 6 > 2 > 1 = 3 > 4

>has to be saved by Johnny multiple times
>dies in the end anyway
>is a mary sue
>?

Don't think about it like that. Think about how many of them it took, and how many he took with him. He was probably covering for his fellow soldiers, and sacrificed himself like Hitler's own Zeppeli.

Being a mary sue is useless to a Zeppeli because you'll still fucking die

Wasn't he meant to be the main character until Araki decided to go full Jojo with SBR?

Did Gyro not understand Johnny's sarcasm, or was he just in denial and didn't wanna believe his jokes were just shit?

Filler to what? Part 4 is about short stories, Kira is just one of those stories that drag until the end

This is why I'm happy I don't follow the manga. The conclusion of part would've really, really pissed me off. What the fuck do you mean everyone except some second rate sidekick gets fucking killed?

Jolynes not even the one to beat Pucci? Are you fucking serious?

Where can I get friends like yours

I wish I had friends that I could grind on

Yeah, but thanks to the conclusion of this part we got the best part of all the series

Yep
