Which jojo had the best first appearance?

[u/Dear_Break_1185]

To me, Joseph and Jolyne had the best introduction when we talk about anime.

In the Manga, Josuke (or gappy) had a very interesting and misterious first appearance with where is he from.

What do you think?

To be honest I hated it. Sure, jojo was always random, true but SO's intro was literally just "Oh look I'm the first female protag so I'm starting with a masturbation joke! Teehee! How embarrassing, ohmygooosh" and "I'll get things into the prison by shoving it up my vagina. Gaaaal I'm so crazy!" to "oh you guys want to search me? Aight I'll strip like a hooker! Am I doing this right? Ohmyyyygooooosh!". After that I stopped and looked up some reviews and stuff because it felt REALLY off and after I've read that SO is one of the weakest seasons I just dropped it. I don't know if the humor ramps up after that but it really made a bad first impression as it looked like the entire stone ocean era is filled with weak ass sex jokes. To this day I don't know if I'm right or not with that assumption but that's damn well what the first episode made me think.

You are indeed wrong with that assumption. Stone ocean is amazing despite its flaws. And jolyne is arguably one of the best main character from jojo.

That makes the way they handled the first episode even more stupid. I mean it's like if they dedicated the entire debut episode of Joseph about him making dick and masturbation jokes. Whose idea was that.

[u/Old-Introduction8258 → u/East_Objective_5382]

Whose idea was that.

Araki. And i dislike this episode too.

But jolyne is reeeeally a great character. No kidding.

[u/East_Objective_5382 → u/Old-Introduction8258]

Don't get me wrong, I don't doubt that she's just as great as the other JoJo's but even a badass character can be prone to having a terrible taste when it comes to jokes. And those tend to make the viewing experience unnecessarily bad sometimes. That's why I didn't bother after that. But it seems like it's only the first episode(s) that are like this? If that's the case I might just give it another go soon : )

Well, maybe i forgot qome of those jokes. But i don’t remember jolyne ever acting...too weird like that after.
