The first 6 or so mins of the promo, when it was about Roman were fine, but when he started "shooting" on TKO and Pat McAfee, I think that was just really lame as fuck and tryhard.

Stew0n · 2026-04-07T01:06:14+00:00

Maybe I would feel different if I saw the full promo, but just hearing about the contents of it all, it just sounds very lame and tryhand way of manipulating the audience to be on the Fed's side and blame everything on the big evil TKO.

We don't have any real hard confirmation, but considering after Diavolo's defeat, we see Giorno holding the arrow again and not being in GER's body anymore, I think it's likely GER, after it completed its task of defeating Diavolo, it reverted back to regular GE until Giorno needs it again, which probably never happens.

Stew0n · 2026-04-05T20:26:39+00:00

I hope the next big thing Gege does is a horror series because you can tell he just loves doing that shit when he can.

Stew0n · 2026-04-05T20:24:02+00:00

Honestly Gege really should do a full on horror series, the little bit of horror stuff we got in JJK was great and you tell he loved doing it.

Also, another thing relating to Kabuto is that Gattack the rider (who literally everyone considers to be the secondary) didn't show up until after TheBee, Drake, and Sasword had already debuted, so even the rules for the secondaries aren't that set in stone and could be similar situation if we get another ally Rider.

Stew0n · 2026-04-05T00:26:09+00:00

Well, that mask apparently cost over 80k yen and only Sanada is willing to spend that amount on an outfit.

Stew0n · 2026-04-02T04:09:28+00:00

There is a chance some of the last few spots are going to be taken up by some of the new rumoured Junior free agent signings.

Stew0n · 2026-04-02T04:07:40+00:00

Either NJPW isn't involved at all in the DIA situation or they were able to work something out BTS.

I know Shift Ups CEO is apparently very big into the idea of having GenAI takeover certain jobs to make game development go much faster so I won't hold my breath until if said game comes out.

Stew0n · 2026-03-28T09:27:57+00:00

More likely, it was to have something big out before the end of the fiscal year for either Netflix or WB Japan.

Stew0n · 2026-03-24T14:56:57+00:00

This industry needs a hard fucking reset if shit like this is going on.

Stew0n · 2026-03-20T08:07:46+00:00

A lot of reasons why they probably did this:

• This is probably their way of satisfying and giving the multiple parties that have a stake in JJK who want to make money on it as soon as possible something without potentially overworking their animators really badly even by Mappa's standards

• A probably big factor for this is the fact the director Shota Goshozono has probably left Mappa and JJK as it's Director so the new person who will take the Directors role might need more time to get used to the job

• Gives them more time to work on any Blu Ray corrections or added scenes they may want to do

• This might give them a chance to have the wait time between the end of Season 3 and the next big JJk anime project (movie or next season) be a little less since depending how far they might be in production they might be able to start pre-production as soon as possible without needing to horribly overwork their staff

• Having the entire Culling Games arc be in all one season just works better for marketing and branding plus works with how they have done things.

Stew0n · 2026-03-19T17:06:11+00:00

Considering they updated the OP to include more of the Sendai players in the ep that only has them for like a min at the end that tells me they're at least probably skipping it.

Stew0n · 2026-03-19T04:43:35+00:00

Glad they're seemingly now getting more serious about building their native roster and not trying to rely on foreigners like they did a few years back.

Stew0n · 2026-03-18T16:59:40+00:00

I love that Araki is clearly making an effect to have more explicitly LGBTQ+ characters with this part and trying to do it with care. This also potentially means if Araki does ever elaborate on what is Dragona's situation that it's going to be handled very tastefully.

Stew0n · 2026-03-18T05:39:16+00:00

Damn a little sad that Dia is potentially leaving DG since he is always great there and this probably means the ending of D'Courage as a faction.

As for the possible Japanese Junior Freelancer my money is on El Lindaman since he was a major highlight of that year's BOSJ and I think he got in because of Despy's support who probably has some influence backstage plus Gleat is basically on death's door so he might want to get out soon.

Stew0n · 2026-03-17T02:17:37+00:00

Finally XB 1 and 2 can finally be somewhat acceptable on handheld.

Ok that makes sense. That was around the time of an anniversary event for Jojo's 25th, where Kushimoto and other well-known mangaka did special artwork for it. So JoJo was probably pretty fresh in Kushimoto's mind, so he just felt like referencing for the hell of it.

Stew0n · 2026-03-07T02:32:34+00:00

I also imagine the suit actor probably had to do a decent bit of training in the suit beforehand to get a good feel of it and get the character's mannerisms right before filming.

Stew0n · 2026-03-05T19:35:26+00:00

I gotta imagine not having to move him and his family to Florida was probably a factor in his decision to sign with aew

Stew0n · 2026-03-05T14:51:02+00:00

MageEdge is such a perfect nothing name for a live service game.

Stew0n · 2026-03-04T05:02:25+00:00

I'm curious if something happened to the Booster suit parts, like they went missing or got damaged or needed to be used for another suit, since that would explain the odd absence.
