Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle

[Jugun]

Ahh! Abdul is back? yes!And Muda Muda Muda to you too Dio!Hol Horse vs. Mista,what I wanted to happen from so long ago

[SoWL]

Here's the Famitsu article about the latest newcomers:

http://www.famitsu.com/news/201212/06025443.html

Magician Red got himself cool new pants, and we got a stage of Dio's Lair (Vanilla Ice is the stage hazard), which means that there can be more than one stage from each arc.

I'll be translating the article later, since I'm not at my PC right now.

So we have Jotaro, Kakyoin, Polnareff, Abdul, Hol Horse and Dio as Part 3 reps. Damn I hope the other parts at least get 4 to 5 reps with how well represented Stardust Crusaders is.

Dio counts as a part 1 rep too, unless we get part one Dio as a separate character.

[furix]

Part 1 dio with freezing techniques, lots of them.

my hopes for each part:

Part 3: at least give me Iggy

Part 4: Kishibe Rohan please! Maybe Yukako, but dunno... oh and Kira of course! (with alt costumes between both his looks). Koichi would be nice too, it'd be fun to see how he'd mix all 3 of his stand acts.

Part 5: Trish please! Also hopefully Fugo... He'd be OP lol

Part 6: well... Jolyne and Hermes are already in, so I guess maybe Foo Fighters, I like a lot of the characters in this arc, I'd like to see them all

oh and hopefully part 8 fleshes out enough to get Josuke in it and maybe(hopefully) Yasuho :s

Where's Mariah?

[furix]

Mariah was an extremely minor villain. She's not important enough lol.

[SolxBaiken]

Sometimes the under represented are the most awesome v.v

[Jugun]

I feel half and half on the ascetics of Magician's Red,why the red shoes?The black feathers,great,shoes are killin' the feel tho.If anything when I catch someone with the command grab,I'll say to my friends,"maybe if I tap the boots twice,you'll go home,one,two,*explosion* Ohh... guess you didn't."Dio looks good,glad the knives and the roada rollar are separate,I wonder if he'll get shadow dio's projectile knives?

[SoWL]

Mariah was an extremely minor villain. She's not important enough lol.

But then again, so was Hol Horse. Unless you consider that Hanged Man is one of the primary motivations for Polnareff to travel with the gang.

Speaking of which, glad that Hanged Man is still in, that was the single most stylish move in the Capcom game.

[Le Shad]

Hol wasn't THAT minor of a villain. Sure he's no Vanilla Ice, but he managed to hurt Abdul pretty badly, helped against Enya, had a cool Dio scene, and would've killed Jotaro if it wasn't for his shitty watch. Better than having, say... Khan, Mariah, or Midler - though Midler is super cool and Mariah was my main.

[furix]

Just give me Trish please, I need me some Spice Girl.

Hol appears in three separate arcs (Hanged Man, Justice and Thoth), has another scene where he takes on Dio, and is one of the most popular Jojo's comic relief characters in Japan. He's definitely the least minor villain in part 3 besides Dio, since Vanilla Ice wouldn't have even been capable of killing Abdul if the fanbase at the time weren't little bitches.

Also Hanged Man is really cool.

[Le Shad]

Yeah but Vanilla Ice was vampires, man.

[eirei]

I just want Old Joseph and I'll be happy.

It's not like they have anyone else who fits the grappler role.

[furix]

Pesci(I think that was his name, he had a fishing rod as a stand) could be a grappler! :s

He could "grapple" you when he sticks the string in you :o

He'd would be like another Hol Horse,because his "anki" had The Grateful Dead out with all his aging bs,so they could make his character be a long ranged grappler,have his bro's stand create a barrier that would age you and drain your health,and as they run,grapple em' to death

[SoWL]

Pete278 is an awesome enough guy to translate the full movesets that we have, even matching the moves' names with the quotes from the manga translations. I wish I were as awesome while translating from Japanese.

I'm really thankful that there's only been one pun so far, I'm awful at coming up with substitution puns.

[Le Shad]

Seeing the new OP for Battle Tendency anime makes me wonder what the opening for this game will look like.

You missed the rumours from neogaf about characters being mentioned. The list the guy heard is:

Jonathan Joestar

Narancia Ghirga

Koichi Hirose

Yukako Yamagishi

Ghiaccio

Foo Fighters

Valentine (silhouette seen)

Jonathan totally shouldn't be on this list since he's already confirmed, we just don't have footage, but whatever.

[SoWL]

I've heard that it's just some Nico user's wishful thinking, but whatever, I guess it's worth mentioning.
