Jojo’s Bizarre Survival Guide

3 Comments

hisuiconAfter reading 100 volumes of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure I have had a divine epiphany on true survival strategy. The world of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure is a hash one with minor characters and NPCs dying left and right and even major characters being no stranger to the call of the reaper. Despite the story taking place in over a century’s time span and in multiple parallel worlds there are a few universal tips that transcend everything. If for some reason you find yourself trapped in the world of Jojo’s (surely after someone has used their Stand power on you) I have 5 handy rules to keep you alive despite all odds.

Nine Spiral: Gackt Played By Gackt

Leave a comment

I don’t make it a part of my typical routine to look at Sket Dance, but when I heard Gackt was going to grace the show’s 15th episode with his melodious voice, I made sure to check it out. When reading up on the role that Gackt was to play, I found out that the character is actually an homage to Gackt in his Malice Mizer days.

Tim Burton to Issho

Tono to Issho is an odd show and one that pretty much goes over my head multiple times in its 3-minute and 30-second episode time frame. This only seems to have gotten more absurd with the second season. But for whatever reason I get a kick out of it. And some times, like this one, the reference surprises me!

The text is “Sengoku Saikyou (The Scariest Thing in the Warring States)” I’m not a 100% sure what this image, beyond the text, actually has to do with Noh and Nobunaga since Jack and Sally are quite kind, though I guess they are pretty scary, too! You can’t expect me to let a Nightmare Before Christmas joke go by without a mention.
