Talk:Dio vs Loki/@comment-25662566-20150610043449/@comment-26814804-20180210043151

C'mon friendo, I know I'm replying to a practically prehistoric comment, but Araki doesn't even know what the tone of his manga is. Part 1 was schlock crossed with horror, part 2 was practically a gag manga, part 3 was some weird fusion of the first two, Part 4 was sometimes dead-serious, but also occasionally goofy and weirdly lighthearted (y'know, for the part with the horiffically realistic serial-killer in it), Part 5 was weirdly sombre, but mixed with jokes that would make Joseph Joestar roll his eyes in distaste, Part 6 was... I dunno, I haven't read it. And Part 7 is a tonal fucking rollercoaster. From goofier than Part 2 to more serious than 1 or 4 ever were to literally talking about American Jesus, I don't even know what to say.

Point is, JoJo's doesn't have a solid tone, and hell yeah it's funny. The poses, the jokes, the Joseph motherfucking Joestar, it's hilarious. Even DIO and Kira take time out of their days to do things to make you laugh on occasion. Point is, it can be serious, manly, and sure as hell fantabulous, but it was certainly both funny and, well, disturbing at times. (Again, Kira. DIO. Actually, wait, Part 4 wasn't even animated when you made the comment, was it? Whatever, Dio, AC/DC, and DIO were all plenty disturbing. As was the almighty Toilet Pig.)
