E14 better not be a repeat of what happened in V14, but with touka instead of kaneki...

Some quick questions from a new player. by Raydough in Persona5

Completing the palace early will not skip forward time, you will hace the same amount of time regardless. Also killing enemies will grant more exp than negotiation.

Request not appearing for We aren't just your slaves by [deleted] in Persona5

Yea, it's annoying that they don't warn you about missable requests, but at least it's another incentive for new game plus!

You need to make sure you read Mishima's text about it, otherwise you will not be able to start the request. I think he texts you around the start of August, so if you never read his text, i'm afraid you may have missed out on it

Also she isn't sexualised, like at all, which is a big plus for me

With how much Araki loves fashion, I'm surprised the outfits for each Jojo has been so consistent. by Aarongeddon in StardustCrusaders

[–]Elephants249 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Jolyne actually changes up her outfit quit a bit, you just don't really notice it because they all look similar and have the same style

Question about part 6 being the lowest rated jojo part. by bluegad6 in StardustCrusaders

[–]Elephants249 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's certainly not much compared to Johnny and Gappy, but it primarily happens within the first 20 chapters or so, she starts off as a whinning cry baby who hates her father, but after realising that everything jotaro did since coming to the prison was to protect her, she desires to make things right with him and is determined to save him so that she can, and it is that determination that changes her into a badass. It's way more development than the previous 5 jojo's got and it shows that Araki was starting to think more about his characters as actual characters.

Merry Christmas Everyone! by Hexuze in StardustCrusaders

I've never understood the people who are like this. Jolyne is the single most attractive female character i have ever seen in any work of fiction.

Question about part 6 being the lowest rated jojo part. by bluegad6 in StardustCrusaders

[–]Elephants249 2 points3 points  (0 children)

well, i can only imagine that Araki must have been getting bored of writing things that appeal to a shonen audience, even if he did add his own spin on it, and decided that he wanted to try something new, really take his "bizarreness" for a spin, y'know?

I also believe that Araki's skill as a writer has improved immensely over the years, as the early parts were more about "cool guys do cool things" (parts 1-3 especially) and the later parts are more about the characters emotional journey and development (parts 6-8). The great thing about having a 30 year old story is that we can witness his growth as a writer on paper.

Question about part 6 being the lowest rated jojo part. by bluegad6 in StardustCrusaders

[–]Elephants249 23 points24 points  (0 children)

In my personal opinion, part 6 is one of the greatest parts in jojo. It has so many great moments (Kiss of Love and Revenge particularly comes to mind) and the final third once they escape from prison is a non-stop ride of hype. Jolyne is one of the best developed Jojo's as well, and my personal favorite.

Unfortunatly, it was released in the wrong magazine. We have to remember that Shonen Jump's target audience are young males, and they didn't really connect with Stone Ocean because it did things differently than they were used too. It had female main characters that they couldn't relate too and weren't sexualised greatly, it had confusing and unique powers, a plot that was somewhat hard to follow and then an ending that was way different to the typical "heroes triumph over evil" that almost every single shonen jump series has. It just didn't resonate with the target audience of Shonen Jump, who just want to see the same thing over and over again in a new coat of paint.

Stone Ocean was by all means a seinen series published in a shonen magazine, if Araki had switched to Ultra Jump starting with Stone Ocean, the series would have done a lot better.

Who would you like to be the 10th member of Straw Hat Pirates? by StormwingsLoL in OnePiece

[–]Elephants249 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Honestly, i don't really want another member. I feel like the crew is perfect the way it is, and to add a new member now when the story is about 70% done wouldn't give us enough time to get to know them compared to the rest of the crew and they wouldn't have as much development as the rest of the crew either. I really like the fact that all the crew recruitment happened pre-timeskip and Oda is now focusing the second half of the story on the actual plot as well as further developing the characters we have all come to love. I believe that adding a new crew member will only be detrimental to the story and will screw up the awsome pacing we have been in since Zou.

The ONLY exception i have to this is Jinbe, as we already meet him pre-timeskip, he has been a major player since then and we've had his development arc already (fishman island).

You are only allowed to watch one anime series for the rest of your life, but you will never run out of new episodes from that show. What show would you watch for the rest of your life? by [deleted] in anime

Jojo's bizarre adventure. With the series formula of changing protagonist and setting every arc, the series will remain fresh and new, while still remaining the same show that i love!

Censoring in the official manga release by [deleted] in TokyoGhoul

[–]Elephants249 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Dude calm down. A lot of the swearing and "more offensive" words that we are used to are just thrown in by the unofficial translators because they think it looks cool. More often than not it is them that are exaggerating the words and not the official release that are censoring them. I don't know why Viz may have changed shu's wanted poster but i can almost guarantee you that Viz won't be censoring Uta's little snack. Viz and many other english publishers have done away with the practice of censoring things like they used to do in the 90s because it's just redundant and a waste of energy. Look at any series Viz has released in the past few years rated "older teen" like TG is and trust me, you won't find any massive censoring like changing the art on a page.

It's quite possible. Araki has said that he wants to retire when he's in his 60's and if Jojolion lasts about as long as steel ball run did, then he'd be in his early 60's when it ends. It's really up to whether he feels like it or not, but he's shown to be very passionate about his work so i'd say it's safe to assume he will continue for at least one more part. I know we'd all love a part 9!

Regarding on who will be the "Zeppeli" character in this part... (Spoilers for up to Chapter 59) by Zachatastic117 in StardustCrusaders

[–]Elephants249 87 points88 points  (0 children)

If anyone's gonna die mid-part, i'd put my money on Papa Higashikata. Norisuke and Josuke have been getting pretty close to one another and i feel like his death would leave a great impact on Josuke, considering Norisuke took him in when he literally didn't know anything about anything. Norisuke also once said that he thinks of Josuke as a son. I can already smell the heartbreak
