Thread: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure

Anyone here watch this?

I have been considering it but I also have been a bit put off by it because of the the weird internet obsession with it. It seems like it has become something to be a fan of just to say you're a fan of it. I don't know much about it but I have seen images and I like the style of the anime itself.

I'm somewhat on the other end of this from where you're at Korin. I know a fair bit about it and I've learned a lot by osmosis as well from following certain YouTube channels and podcasts that talk about it and I have zero interest in diving any deeper. I absolutely loathe the art style, humor and concept behind the series. Those are all subjective reasons as there's nothing inherently wrong with Jojo at all, it just hits me in the wrong way and doesn't land. The internet obsession over the past few years has made it extra un-palatable.

Based on how people react to it and talk about it, it almost seems like it is a meme anime or something which I am sure is not what the creators of the series intended. I will keep it on my "maybe someday" list for now. The more I hear about it from people, it just reminds me of the Rick and Morty fans but I only found out about them after having watched a few seasons so it didn't bother me as much.

That's the vibe I get as well. Forget Jojo, read Berserk.

Come on, man. I can understand feeling that the show is overexposed but the fanbase doesn't deserve to be compared to how obnoxious Rick and Morty fans are.

I found the show to be a lot of fun. I admittedly got lazy with it and never got past battle tendency. I gotta get back into that show one of these days.
