Manga: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure

[Munsu]

Do you know of any scanlation groups? or links? I'm a cheap bastard


* shouln't this be moved to the anime discussion or the manga discussion? I dont care really... but maybe some more poeple will join in to discuss this

[Munsu]

Damn... now I'm confused...

I downloaded 5 episodes from animeskyscraper to get the second OVA but to my surprise the episodes where the same as what a4e claim to be the first ova... I think that a4e is incorrect... even at anidb.net they say that they are releasing the first ova when it is infact the second...

Anyone has more info on this?

*When I say second OVA I mean prequel for your reference

[Munsu]

I dont doubt it... i've watched the as you know 5 episodes of the anime and I love it... and you are telling me the manga is even better... so I cant waste no time... I still have to catch up with my Berserk manga reading... so I think I'll push Berserk back a little bit

[Terracosmo]

Dude the anime isn't even 5% as good as the manga... it's waaaay too short!

[Terracosmo]

Mondongo didn't I give links to both of the translator groups a few posts back? ;P

Here is the same post again:

--

For Part 1 (finished) & 2 (wip): http://www.ignition-one.com/
For Part 3 (finished), 4 (finished), 5 (wip) & 6 (wip): http://jojo.highervoltage.net/

As you might know, the manga is 80 volumes and split up in 6 parts.
Part 3 is the one that was made into anime, because it became the most famous.
You can read them in any order at all, just that there will be some references you won't understand if you read them wrongfully.

Volumes are split up like this:

Part 1: 1-5
Part 2: 5-12
Part 3: 12-28
Part 4: 29-47
Part 5: 47-63
Part 6: 64-80

[Munsu]

You are right.. forgot that you posted links... didnt reread all the post... i'll get on them as soon as I can

Thanks

[Terracosmo]

No problems. Glad to spread JoJo.
It's, as I said so many times already, the best thing ever made.

[Terracosmo]

So did any of you guys read enough of JoJo to tell us how you like it?

[Munsu]

Havent downloaded it yet... just got back from spring break... but i'll have it soon enough... anyways... one question... is the manga finished?

[Terracosmo]

In japanese, yes it is. 80 volumes. About 50 volumes are scanlated if you sum up all the translated volumes from the different series.

[RasenDori]

oh thank god i found this! thank you terracosmo! ive been dying to read part 1 and 2!

[Terracosmo]

No problems at all, makes me happy to see a good topic of this revive... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

[RasenDori]

hey...whats up with the jojo.highervoltage site... man... i need my fix of jojos bad...

[Hennyo]

hmm i'll see about best thing ever but if someone that has a decent amount of experiance in manga is saying this then its probally well worth my effort . I'll now add it to the over 200 differnt manga i have read oh and btw my all time favorite manga is 3X3 EYES tho im kinda sad the translation of it is going so horribly slow.

HAHAH i wasnt even thinking but i already have this well thru chapter 123 which i have read btw thats vol 13 and from reading what i have i fail to see how this is anywhere near the best thing ever but mabey your right it gets better but so far it isnt tho it was a respectable read tho i admit. Well at least i now know where to get more of it from

I just noticed you said part two wip well its finshed tho no clue where i got it from but i would be glad to give it too you terracosmo tho you would have to get on irc and pm me. My nick is the same as it is here and i hang out in Inanes channel 24/7

Oh and btw the link that you gave for parts 3,4,5,6 just opens up a window that just says hello i would like to continue reading from what i have

[Terracosmo]

Yes part 2 is finished, I know that, and I have it all. Thanks anyway though.

Yes the series becomes much better at vol 13 (part 3) because they start using "stands" there.

The "hello" means that the site is down.

[Hennyo]

hey terracosmo that site for the latter vol of jojo has ben done for a really long time. Well the thing is i was wondering if i could get the latter jojo from you or if you knew someone that had it cause ive searched everywhere and havent found a thing beyound what i have already. I also have connections with manga archive which owns 11 xdcc bots with lot of manga and wanted to get the rest of jojo and put it all up on the bots that way it can be spread around. Well im on irc in Inane's channel or my msn is xxhennyoxx@hotmail.com Any help getting it would be greatly appericated thanks.

[RasenDori]

[Terracosmo]
