Lately I've wanted to mix The Beatles song "Get Back" with Jojo |
I was actually pretty surprised, there are a lot of people who aren't that found of Part 1, which I can understand. The art in the very beginning can be laughable, and not in the good way. Some of it is just grotesquely off anatomy wise, but around the latter chapters Jojo settles in to it's own unique style.
But Jojo is fun as HELL to read. It has this pulpy western feel to it, that fits the absurdity of the art and the story well. Part 1 starts off pretty slow but once it gets going it stays pretty exciting.
Favorite part of this arc overall- The last fight with Dio and Jojo, if you haven't read it I won't spoil it. BUT WOW that guy can not stay dead.
So I'm going to try something a little different and score Part 1. That way if my short paragraph is too long you can just skip it
Art: 2/5 (the anatomy in the early chapters is just... guh)
Story: 3/5 (the story starts pretty slow, and is pretty straight forward for the most part, not many twists)
Translation: 3/5 (readable, only a few oddly worded lines stick out, some font choices weren't the best)
Enjoyment: 4/5 (fun to read, very different from other manga)
So yeah, maybe I'll do more of this 'scoring', maybe I won't. But I will be reading the rest of Jojo, and hopefully I'll remember to post about it on here.
