Nice visuals, I definitely like them and I think the show is going to be consistent with that PV as well. I hope it will follow a similar structure like with Stardust Crusaders being a double split cour.

If "Shine On, You Crazy Diamond" isn't the ED, I'll riot.

Personally i was hoping for "1999". It's way too perfect.

Need to know the ED theme. The wait is killing me.

Man, I was hoping for a sample of the OP... Nice visuals, though.

I remember the Super Best Friends suggesting Smash Mouth's All Star for the ED. Now I want it.

Seconded.

Looking good in terms of art direction, but Part IV is a divisive series despite it being Araki's favorite. Time will tell how this will pan out.

Could you please clarify what you meant by divisive series? I don't mean any hostility, I legitimately wish to know what you meant because I'm dumb.

You have to keep in mind that a lot more goes into picking a cast for an anime adaptation than a video game. For the game, the voice actor only needs to sound great for the HIGH TENSION ACTION MOMENTS! For an anime, they need to also sound good for normal conversations and more nuanced situations.

People were also very unhappy with Joseph's voice actor getting changed for the Part 3 adaptation, and it ended up being better for it. Just wait and see. At least Okuyasu is the same! Very Happy

Well it's not like the older characters show up that much anyway, with a few exceptions (Jotaro, Polnareff).

This. I'll never be able to live down Hatano's dismissal.

The art does look much better now though.

Well, all replacements for Part 3 has proven to be better than their ASB counterparts, so I'm alright with cast replacement for this.

Although they'd better not to replace Koyama. The only other seiyuu who could fit Kira as much as him is Koyasu and he is out of question for obvious reasons.

Jotaro is anime's Benjamin Button at this point.
