The Useless! FC (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure FC)

[Edgecrusher]

http://lucille.sourceforge.net/gallery/0_1_3/img/muda.jpg

This thread is for fans of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, the epic manga series by Hirohiko Araki! While hard to find, I know for a fact JoJo fans exist in nooks and crannies across the internet, and that there’s some here... and now, I've finally decided to make a JoJo FC!

Anyways, if you’ve never heard of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure before, there’s all sorts of things to like about it: Killer squirrels, pantless men, men with no gender, vampires, ghosts, gangsters, Western pop culture references; This list could go on nearly limitlessly. The main thing is that the main character’s nickname is JoJo, which comes from the two “Jo’s” in their family name and first name, and is a reference to the Beetle’s hit “Get Back”. Anyways, call me lazy, but I don’t feel like explaining the whole shebang, so feel free to check out the excellent article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jojo's_Bizarre_Adventure) on Wikipedia! (I can’t do it as well besides :tem)

I have a feeling not knowing where to find the manga is a problem that has not helped this fanclub. So I'll list places where to find the manga:

Ignition-One (http://www.ignition-one.com/) with Parts 1 and 2, first vol. of 3 (currently down :( so check back later)
Veggie's JoJo Page (http://jojo.highervoltage.net/) with Parts 3 and 4 complete, 5 and 6 are WIPs. Also has some of Araki-sensei's various other works up.

can i be co-owner?

[Edgecrusher]

Yeah, sure :laugh I never noticed the SP under your name before today... when I saw I knew you'd post :glomp

So, what's your favorite part?

[Silver]

Hmmm when the second jojo ownz the creator of the stone mask.

[Edgecrusher]

Oh, I meant like 1, 2, 3, etc. But yeah, that was incredibly cool. You'd think for sure Joseph was dead for sure, but it was a miracle, I guess. And it's hard for me to say, but I guess Part 2 is my fave.

Hey, I'm not so good at editting, so if you are, you can make a banner if you feel like it.

Also... anyone else? Because I'm going to sleep now... I may or may not be back on later today.

[Silver]

Ok ill make a banner

[Edgecrusher]

Thanks a lot, I'll be waiting for it.

By the way, who is your avatar of? I like it!

Oh, ok. I'll check it out then! And I see you're using the work of that dude who makes all the bishounen JoJo pics :P

It's great though! Really sharp! :amuse

[Silver]

we need more advertising

[Christen]

What the? Only 1 member? Let me in here. I'm very much fond of this series.

[Edgecrusher]

You're right, k1nj3. I need to do a better job... but hey, we got a new member. Welcome! *reps* But I'm not too sure about our member #1, babsai.

Anyways, you notice all the good English JoJo sites are down (except veggie's page)? It downright sucks.

And please, if you're new to the JoJo, join! You won't regret it! :laugh

[Christen]

If I have time, I'll try to make sig out of my old Jojo PS Game. ^^

[Edgecrusher]

That'll be cool, I look forward to it. I've got an idea, too. I'll make one out of the manga images on s-manga.net. That site rocks. You should check it out! It took me a while to find it again, but it's here:

http://annex.s-manga.net/jojo/

[Edgecrusher]

Yo, another bump! Looks like there's a lot of people yet to be introduced to JoJo.

[blind51de]

I'm a huge fan!

And Series II Josef OWNS.

[Edgecrusher]

Yeah, another member! Joseph is always cool. Do you know if "We're getting the fuck out of here" is just another one of his English phrases or did he say it in Japanese?

[blind51de]

Probably in Japanese. His catchphrase is "OH NO!" in English.

[pakku]

I'm not the fan club type, but I just want to mention that I fully endorse this FC.

Maybe you guys can spread Jojo propaganda to encourage (force?) some of the cooler people around here to read it.

[Edgecrusher]

Thanks. That's good you're not, you'll never have the off-chance to go crazy joining random fanclubs and get in over your head.

Propaganda? I joined the owner's FC, I hope that'll help, maybe. But I'll have to work on the propaganda.

For the topic: Ninjakirby @ HerV (http://highervoltage.net/mb/showpost.php?p=552820&postcount=3866) has a bunch of raw volumes up on rapidshare. (You have to wait some time between dl's, though...)

[Edgecrusher]

Bump yet again... I updated the first post with links to the manga so if anyone who hasn't read wants to read, they can go ahead and find out what JoJo's all about better than a wikipedia entry can tell them!

[Silver]

does anyone here has the anime episodes?

[Edgecrusher]

Long time, no see k1 :glomp

Anyway those are almost impossible to find nowadays. Long before it went offline, I sometimes found the episodes in WinMX with Eng subs. After a while the only thing that would show up were the Ita subs. You could probably find them using some Japanese P2P program like Share.

What's best is that a rental site like AnimeForest.com has them up for rent, and they've got up to the next-to-last DVD. Then you can burn the eps and return it.

!!!
ill try on baka-updates:amuse
they have a lot of info

[Edgecrusher]

Yeah, you do that. I've got an idea, though... do you know how to encode DVD's?

Also, do you (or anyone else part of this, reading this) read raw manga? Because there's a guy that wants to host a torrent but needs people to seed.

[Silver]

yes i know how to enconde dvd's, and no, y don't read raw manga, sorry

[pakku]

I'm interested in raw Jojo, so I might be able to seed.

[Edgecrusher]

OK, it's up now. There's more people using it then the one before, so you have a reasonable chance of getting it in due time.

Also, I think I know what you mean by propaganda: Going to Konoha Library - Floor 2 :laugh

[Peliqua]

This sounds interesting. What is this 'Jojos Bizarre Adventure'? 0.0

read this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jojo's_Bizarre_Adventure) :amuse

[Edgecrusher]

Hey, k1, have you heard of the Part 1 movie A.P.P.P. is working on? It was announced some time ago, but I haven't seen any news lately.

that sounds great, i'll try to get some info about it:)

[Edgecrusher]

Thanks! :wink

I bought Viz's Part 3 Volume 1, and it's awesome. All the violence is there, even the sound effects are left as-is (with English equivalents to the side).

By the way, they're doing a game now, based on Jonathan's life (by Bandai and not Capcom)! I still don't know what's with the relation between this and the movie.

[Silver]

Veggie's Jojo Page released a new chapter :nuts


btw i couldn't find info :(

[Silver]

:omg we need more members!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!

[olaf]

yes you do...

maybe you should do sth like JOJO manga pimping project? it would be hard, but it would make manga more available. (in your place I would upload first 10 volumes and wait to see if ppl want more of Jojo)

BTW I'm not joining... yet. I'm gonna start reading Jojo this week, after I finish Ippo:P

[Silver]

k, but don't forget to join :amuse

[Silver]

i miss WRY :(

[spirishman]

I'm so in on this. Though I've never read the manga, I've seen the anime which was very kick ass.

[Silver]

welcome! :amuse


i wonder where WRY is :oh...

[asone27]

This manga rocks my socks. Gotta let me join - looks like this series needs a boost.

So................... hi, all 3 of you out there. =P

[Silver]

:amuse welcome!!!

*still wonders if wry will ever come back*

[Edgecrusher]

:amuse welcome!!!

*still wonders if wry will ever come back*
I'm here! :amuse Sorry I didn't try contacting you by PM or so. :amazed

Buy the manga! Viz did a palatable job with it. I want to see it meet with success, although it does seem to be doing well enough as it is.

[asone27]

So how do i put the jojo banner on my sig, so that ppl can link to this forum?

And can I be named as one of the members on the first page? =P

[Silver]

Damn straight! I couldn't wait soon enough for the end of the White Album arc.

Thank you. :nuts

[Silver]

you're welcome :nuts

[Edgecrusher]

I'm thinking of buying the English DVDs :amuse

So who is your favorite JoJo villain? I think mine is Kira Yoshikage. He's just so demented, and not an all-powerful villain.

[Silver]

hmmmmm i'd have to say dio, he's just too cool to be ingnored

[TenTigerz]

OK, so how do I join? I ve beaten the PS1 game, have few chapters of Pt3 in straight Japanese, and I would love to read all the existing chapters.

[Silver]

you've just joined!


read the first post to know where to download all chapters of part 3

[TenTigerz]

I wanna join!
Opened windows to both links posted by Edgecrusher. Hoping I'll be able to D-load as much of the series as possible. Already have some issues of original Shonen Jump with chapters from pt.3.
As much as I love Pt.3, I was dissapppoointed with Viz (As usual) when they decided to begin their translation there, completly ignoring the 1st 2 chapters.
Beat the Playstation game, but it left me with a permanent bias against the game of poker...Hmmm, maybe if they'd been playing with Tarot cards...
Orararararararara-ooragh!...Doshite?
