Naruto Rebirth: Kakureyami OOC

[GasMaskie]

I still find it weird how the anime is going to start off Hazamada and the Lock stand user as Koichi-sized shorties instead of just suddenly making them short when they reappear. The opening's animation is really great though and I'm looking forward to when they add in Koichi's stand during his segment and probably a section for Rohan.

Ah unfortunately I dunno too much about Jojo's

@White Masquerade

Here's a reference guide to the artistic styles that Hirohiko Araki goes through in Jojo. Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is one of the longest running manga series and incredibly bizarre. Right now, Part 4: Diamond is Unbreakable has an anime adaptation and we'll likely see Vento Aureo in 2018.​

Thanks for that! What happened with Stone Ocean ._.

@White Masquerade


The Jojo of that era is the Part 3 Jojo's daughter. Late-DiU to Stone Ocean seems pretty consistent though.

I think they're doing that to keep a consistent design throughout the entire series. It's only a single change, but altering their height for the reappearance could potentially ruin the flow of their work, especially since there's multiple people working at a time.

 

[GasMaskie]

Re-reading Part 4 again, and Tamami actually seems to shrink within his chapter. Hazamada only shrunk after he showed up again to fanboy Rohan. Speaking of which, I'm especially glad that Okuyasu still has the same voice actor as ASB, but Hiroshi Kamiya as Rohan was another one of those perfect matches that I wished they kept.

 

[Lucem]

Hiroshi is a pretty big VA, so it's possible that there was a schedule conflict with other airing projects. If I'm correct, he's also pretty expensive, which could have been a factor.

 

[GasMaskie]

I've gotten used to Yuki Kaji as Koichi, but I still prefer Romi Park's pissed-off voice in ASB. Part 4's my second favorite part, Steel Ball Run was really good. The shift to Seinen really helped Araki there.

 

[Lucem]

Battle Tendency has been my favorite so far, since it has Joseph and the old New York setting.

 

[GasMaskie]

Sugita was a very good choice for Joseph, though I agree with their decision to replace him as Old Joseph. I think what I like best about DiU is that it proves that Stand users can actually live in peace with one another even if they initially abused their powers. That, and the relative consistency when it comes to the enemy stand users. Unlike Stardust Crusaders, the defeated Stand users keep showing up throughout the part.


Battle Tendency was a great part as well, and Araki really explored the capabilities of the Ripple. Definitely the most bizarre chapter in my opinion.

[Lucem]

I think Ishizuka does a good job of keeping up the personality seen in young Joseph, but distinguishes himself enough to reflect his more mature nature.


Stardust Crusaders had a 'villain of the week' feel to it with its method of quickly introducing and getting rid of the Stand users. DiU definitely does a good job of using characters without quickly tossing them aside.


I miss the older Ripple battles, which Battle Tendency pulled of really well. It's a shame how it faded out, but there's not much use for it anymore and Stands have a lot more potential.

Go ahead and make it straight then

Out-of-Context Jojo is great.

What makes it weird? The show I mean. Is it just random, or there's an actual plot?

 

[izayoiix]

What the actual fuck? I see this stuff while trying to have a normal conversation with one of my best friends lol


All he hears is me cursing about the internet

[QUOTE="White Masquerade]What makes it weird? The show I mean. Is it just random, or there's an actual plot?

[/QUOTE]
What's scary is that all of this stuff makes perfect sense in context. Diamond is Unbreakable is about a group of supernaturally empowered teenagers protecting their town from a supernaturally empowered serial killer who has a hand fetish. Also, their powers/Stands are usually really weird and on paper sound really stupid. But Araki is clever and the fight scenes are really amazing because of how outlandish the superpowers are.

Lol. Yuup. The internet can take you to some odd places


@GasMaskie


xD That picture alone makes me want to give it a watch

 

[izayoiix]

He said he had to ask me something important and made sure I was sitting down and all that shit. Then asked the stupidest question ever xD


"Has it ever been normal?"

 

[GasMaskie]

@White Masquerade

I definitely recommend giving Part 4 a watch. It's probably the most light-hearted part. It has major connections to the previous part, but all of it is explained pretty well.​

"Has it ever been normal?"

WOAH. I'm offended! I'd be even more offended if you said "No." Spill the beans Infi. What did you answer?


@GasMaskie


I do see it has high ratings. That's always a plus. I'll give it a go then
