I know they've never reacted to Jojo proper

Bob

oh my god you fucks would do dub for jojos. what a travesty lol

Cameron_1

Did I miss part 1-6 reaction

Doc Anime!

Whoa whoa whoa what the hell is this????

NindoNas

Someone needs to be fired lmao

Bob

Why dub man whyyyy.

NindoNas

It’s not a reboot, and still relies heavily on the general world and quirks of past JoJo seasons. Starting here is a complete disservice.

Shockzz1234

???? the fuck lmao, of course you guys would commit the greatest sin in the Jojo fandom - part skipping.

Bob

feel like actual normies react to subs nowadays and you guys are a minority lol

Shockzz1234

Crazy. I'm not one for doing too much in the sub vs dub debate but imo there's only two series where watching the sub is 100% recommended over the dub and those two are One Piece and Jojo's.

Jackie Gibson

Ngl I kinda hate they started with part 7 😂 not that's it bad but... What about the other JoJo greatness. I'm always a supporter of creators having full control over what they do, but again you have the tools to gauge what the majority of the audience wants. Like a POLL! if in favor of part 7 first fair enough, but at least you'd avoided the outrage if people wanted the first installments of the series. ALSO DUB!! WTF 😂😅

Conor Philbey

It's honestly kind of funny in a way

Reynaldo Urena

Y’all, I think you posted the April Fools upload a little too early. Respectfully I gotta ask, is this you guys trying to farm negative engagement, cuz ya boy is flabbergasted, gobsmacked and discombobulated in that order🧐

Shockzz1234

Yeah idk who told them they can watch this first. I mean, technically you CAN I guess, but you'd be missing out a lot of references and such plus the later you get into the Part the more the other parts become relevant. Like you know how they're watching some DCAU episodes before going to JL/U? It's like if you skipped the whole of the DCAU before that....but much worse. Like yeah you CAN watch JL/U on it's own, but it's like....much better if you have the (in this case, ANY) context of stuff before it.

Shockzz1234

Not even a poll is crazy ngl. We'd have all told them to NOT do this, that'd they'd be crazy to even consider it lol, but at least then they would have known beforehand and given us a chance to tell them.

Bob

man what sucks is that they know the universe resets/ends so they know the end to stone ocean. they are already spoiled, wouldnt even be a blind reaction :(

Conor Philbey

That's actually unrelated to the alt universe stuff

NindoNas

Like, not knowing why the name “Zeppeli” matters so much going into SBR is insane.

Tony Wirt

Whoever told you it was okay to do this, they set y’all up for straight failure

Shockzz1234

I keep coming back here because I'm in such disbelief lmaoo, my head is hot, who told you to do this, I just wanna talk to them *insert Peter Griffin shotgun meme* Look at my pfp ffs, it's Johnny and has been ever since i joined here and my pfp on Youtube is Gyro and has been for like a decade at this point, I should be excited for this dammit, noooo! (it is actually kinda funny tbf, but noooo)

Conor Philbey

If anything I at least think they will listen

Ivy

WHAT

Bob

They must be a secret jojo hater, dub AND starting from part 7.

Jackie Gibson

This is actually insane, like wtf happened in the meeting to be like "yeah, we can just jump in here it'll be fine, the fandom will be chill" 😂

Jesse Vincente

Is this a failed April 1st joke lol.

Julio Castillo

Guys..... Just....... NO. There's a reason this is called PART 7. This only classifies as a "Reboot" in the most marginal way possible, Steel Ball Run still uses concepts and knowledge you acquire throughout the previous parts. And even if we're not taking that into account..... not watching the 6 previous storylines is a complete disservice to both Jojo's itself and yourselves as reactors. So stop this sick joke and go to Part 1 ............... Please.

MarcusDiggler

I get needing more content for the anime channel but part 7 of a new series was a odd choice

MojoJojoGojo

I knew the comments were about to go haywire for Part 7 reaction before 1-6 😂 cause holy hell. But for real...go to Part 1 guys...this is giving a yall skipped Naruto and went straight to Boruto time skip kinda vibes 😂😅

Jackie Gibson

Commenting again because it's also hilarious that this is honestly the WORST option. No communication, skipped parts, and DUB! 💀 I'd be cry laughing if I wasn't so mad.

Bob

legit whoever told them hates jojos

Julio Castillo

Also.... when you guys go back to Part 1 (because i trust you will)... if you're gonna do Dub instead of Sub.... then you gotta tell your Editors to include the funny/memes parts of the Sub at the end of each episode. You cannot miss out on the memes, it's an integral part of being a Jojo Fan

SupremeKon

First who told you that you can watch Part 7 FIRST before watching the other Parts?? Second just dropping this with no Poll is crazy, i can garante that we all had said no to watch this first! I'm out words.. IT MAKES NO SENSE! WHO TOLD YOU GUYS TO DO THIS?? YOU. NEVER. SKIP. ANY. PARTS. IN. JOJO!

alexander rios

This just hurt my soul guys plssssss this is almost sacrilegious🥲

Bob

idk if the dub even says (audiowise) the correct name for the stands like the sub does.

Julio Castillo

Aliciaxlife would give you all a spanking if she found out about this. (commenting again so they get the memo that this is a bad idea xddd).

Jackie Gibson

Almost? This is like the number 1 rule in the fandom. This is full on blasphemy! lmao.

Sonicluis

I don’t agree with just skipping the first 6 part to watch this, but it’s just my opinion. A lot of the details and references that we would like to watch your reactions to and discussion will just go over your heads. Please just watch from the beginning.

Phil

I never really agreed with the claims of the Normies being a bunch of trend hoppers but...today I stand corrected. I wanna be optimistic and say it will cause them to check out the rest of series but knowing their history with other anime I honestly doubt it.

Bob

Larpers

MojoJojoGojo

Youre not more concerned with them starting part 7 bruh hahah

CodePhoenix13

I'm sorry but it's crazy to skip all the way to steel ball run

MojoJojoGojo

Navi and Marketta will understand after I say this...imagine in One Piece skipping to the New World w/o watching the literally integral 500 something episodes you must see before hand hahah... yall will do the right thing. I hope we see a #SundayRundown of all these comments its super funny

ispeckz--

Just imagine how the YouTube comments are gonna go 😭

Kyle Turman

Wtf??? Why start with part 7??? Been asking for Jojo's for YEARS at this poi nt and yall just skip??? Honestly, unsubbing. This is so frustrating. Normies have fell off with genuine reactions, just trend following bandwagoners

Jackie Gibson

Bro they are literally going to get paragraphs of slurs 💀

ispeckz--

Inside us are two wolves

Kyle Turman

I'm back again because I'm just in absolute disbelief and mad. As someone else said, imagine starting One Piece 500 episodes in. Imagine watching Better Call Saul before Breaking Bad. Imagine watching Twin Peaks The Return before Twin Peaks. This is just, in the most plain of terms I can fashion, stupid. Ya'll are whack, please fix and go back to part 1 I WANT to stay and be with you guys like I've been for years but this is just INSANE

Mr I like spam

jojo community is great and full of amazing people but part skipping is the one thing that in unanimously hated by everyone in this fanbase like zero defenders will pop up. lol

Step B.

This comment made me straight up cackle

Kay Bee Baby

No, this is absolutely terrible. Part 7 is after a universe rest but… you miss all the context of alternate versions of characters we fans knew before, this has got to be the absolute dumbest way to watch JoJo. It would’ve made more “sense” to watch the super cut with one second of every JoJo episode so far.

Mr I like spam

The only other fanbase close to this is kingdom hearts

Step B.

Talking bout COOKED 😭😭😭

Step B.

Idk who and idk why but whoever told yall to watch Steel Ball Run IS AN OPP. THEY ARE PRAYING ON YOUR DOWNFALL AS WE SPEAK😭😭😭. The comments are about to light yall up like I ain’t never seen in my life 😭

Wii live in a society

Listen guys, love your content, long time fan, and I've waited for a JoJo's for at least 5-6 years out of them, and I would like to mention that this has been one of you're best reaction in years and I hope for more Now with that all said and done as you can tell, the reaction to yours is pretty negative, and I do think some here overblown it, what I'm going to say is heretical for jojo's fans, but I do believe you can watch part 7 onwards without the rest, and if you have no intention of watching the rest I personally would rather you continue watching from here then stopping all together But it is important for you guys to know that it's a disservice to yourself and a weaker way to experience the show, and I would suggest you go back, unlike south park or something like that, there isn't a bad season, it's all great, it's all going to entertain you and us the viewers But please don't let the negativity dissuade you from continuing with the series as a whole, whether you start from 7 and after finishing you go back to 1, or you stop now, go back to 1 and continue till 7, or even the best option in my opinion, since neflix once again decided to do batches and the next episodes would probably come once per few months, you could take the time in between to watch the other parts in order and come back to 7 whenever new episodes come out, basically make it two separate reaction shows whether you take any of those options I'm pretty sure almost all of us would still be here, can't wait for more from you guys 👍

Kyle Turman

better than any of us could articulate

Kevin

Have to join the crowd here, in no way should you be skipping over the earlier parts.

Shockzz1234

Or just even the name Joestar lol. God imagine they watched Part 7 all the way to the end like this and didn't *spoilers following*---------------------------------------------------------- know who Dio was or why it's such a big deal him and The World appear. Like lol, lmao even. *spoilers end* --------------------------------------------------------------- Why doesn't this site offer spoiler tags anyway. Whole other discussion I suppose lol.

Saifu

dero45

Jumping into the Bizarre Adventure on the deep end this should be interesting I hope y’all do watch the earlier seasons just to see how different they are

Marvin Botello

Nah bro you need to watch the first season of Jojo Bizarre Adventure or else you won’t get the full story of the greatest protagonist family in anime

Laishiec

YOU HAVE MEDDLED WITH THE PRIMAL FORCES OF (anime) NATURE NORMIES AND I WON'T HAVE IT!!! IS THAT CLEAR!!! jk. Just a little classic movie reference. Seriously though, you do need to watch the other seasons/series of JoJo or you are missing out.

Kyle Turman

It will literally stop making any sense for them in the latter half if they don't reverse course now

Bob

toxic positivity sucks

Bob

if they get views they wont give af its all about views. patrons are just expected to always be there

Kyle Turman

Luckily Patreon allows for unsubbing

Kyle Turman

After cooling down, I watched the reaction. Sorry for the outburst, but yeah, you still need to stop now and go back to part 1. The idea of part 1 through 6 not being relevant or needed is just plain wrong. Someone LIED to you guys and Navi, bless her heart, is spoiling you guys with partially true but also partially untrue spoilers of 1 through 6. I don't want to say how exactly, because then I'd be spoiling

MagnaGlazer

I'm not a Jojo fan, but skipping parts is a disservice to the author.

MagnaGlazer

With Jojo it depends on the setting for me. SBR is in america so why not speak English?

Joel

Where's one piece

Hank yang

It’s like you watching avengers end game without watching the previous movies

Paradoxhamartia

Damn. I've been waiting for Jojo reactions ever since I started following you. But not like this... Jojo's community is super chill, but literally the one thing fans won't let you get away with is part skipping. Honestly the reason is pretty simple. Jojo truly is a unique piece of storytelling, and it deserves to be experienced accordingly. It would be a shame for you guys to miss on it. Also the reason why you should really go with the SUB. It's just too iconic. It's weird that you didn't post a poll cause I'm sure this could have been avoided. I think that even someone who isn't necessarely a Jojo fan would know that this was a very bad idea. Which is also why I keep thinking that you could really use some kind of "manga/anime counselor" (btw DMs open lol), it would be useful in other scenarios too. Personally I think an easy fix for all this would be to simply pause the Part 7 reactions, and start all the way from Part 1 (SUB). Hoping that you have an open slot for it, but tbh I can guarantee that Jojo reactions would be positively received (we've been waiting a long time), and most importantly you would have a whole lot of fun!

A.Bisutti

jumping in jojo instead of watching kaiu no.8 s2 when you have seen s1 is a choice...

Roosevelt

#sundayrundown time to finally finish part 3 and from what i heard from people this is probably not the best part to start with the next part is probably better place but i do hope you will go back and watch the others this parts it's really a celebration of the other six parts of jojo it's like NEW52 Batman where it was a reboot in name and other things but it kept the previous continuity from the other Batman runs if that makes any sense

Yanni Haddix

I think most people would agree that even if you guys are too busy to cover Jojo from S1 now we would be happy to wait rather than see you guys jump into Steel Ball Run with no context.

BindingofNack

Anyone who wants to jump into this bizarre universe is welcome to at any time and at any point, I love you all for reacting to this and it was a really nice surprise!

Bernard

This feels like ragebait

Duvorious R. Ingram

So wait are they seriously not going to watch Parts 1-6 because jumping right into 7 is definitely a choice

SBR Calaminator

Hey Normies 👋 long time no see this is Conflictor here from the Bleach reactions. I don’t know if you guys will read this as it may not get enough likes or might be too late at this point but while this part is a complete reset renaissance and alternate continuity, it along with future parts has direct callback references with character names and similar counterparts as well as to the power system that you guys won’t appreciate without the full experience. it’s called part 7 for a reason. Don’t really mind the dub personally too much as JoJo’s has one of the better anime dubs, aside from copyright regarding famous musical bands and musicians that are locally changed which can’t be helped and is part of the reason why the series took 20+ years to finally get it adapted back in 2012 after the manga started in 1987 as its initial sterilization and so far has turned out into a passion project with all the previous parts that is highly recommended if you go back and watch, and more generally accepted in sub for the sake of memes but also proper names. After I saw that you posted this on YouTube I had to immediately come back on here just to let you guys know even if there are others that have already done so. We want you to have the full flamboyantly masculine experience, where everyone is psychologically and fashionably free going against the societal norms gran. However Sexually is no different than real life, ambiguously on a spectrum but irrelevant to the story, more so about free expression. Their idea of masculine, and those weird ass poses is part of the bizarre nature that is flamboyant masculinity replicating, greek sculptures and those in the high fashion world. Only in the world of memes has JoJo’s ever been associated even remotely with the LGBTQ. Regarding SBR here, JoJo’s SBR is the most universally acclaimed arc of all time and only #2 behind Berserk due to lack of popularity yet ironically for a demographically wider audience being a mix of both Shonen (demographic for teens) and Seinen (demographic for adults) The true best thing since sliced bread and 2nd coming of Jesus. No matter what anyone’s agenda or sensibilities/tastes are, SBR aims to please or at least entertain on all critical fronts. I have my own favorites, but I can realize JoJo’s is simply just something else The biggest concern was how they would animate the horses since they are notoriously difficult to animate in general, so just the fact that it even looks this good is promising. Also Fun Fact: 50 million back in 1890 is worth 1.78 billion today adjusted for inflation. Due to copyright of its musical references, it took initially 25 years for JoJo’s to get an adaptation, and now after another 13+ years we have finally made it to this seemingly unadaptable (due to its detailed art style) grand pinnacle of adventure all thanks to David productions which also handles fire force, however this is their biggest series. Parts 1 - 3 is about setting the ground for the JoJo’s, parts 4 - 6 is exploring the Bizarre, and now Parts 7 - 9 is the Adventure like no other. The bizarre reflection of our reality and a celebration of humanity. A trilogy of trilogies. Part 7 onwards is the “The Good, The Bad and Ugly” of Everything.

Kollie123

Not true, Netflix has been pretty up front about overall viewers are most likely to watch stuff in the dub of their language.

YoungBoy

Some lame ahh people in these comments XD

BindingofNack

It's not the most ideal jumping in point but if they want to dive into the universe it's adequate Normally I'm not seeing Jojos getting into their regular rotation but if this leads to them becoming bigger fans and starting the series as a whole then what's so wrong with jumping in here?

Kyle Turman

You're not wrong, but I would ask the exact same question. Aside from the fear of Normies not adding it to their normal rotation, what's so wrong with just starting from the beginning instead?

Phil

I am willing to bet money that they will 100% NOT do the right thing.

Phil

That's because it's all about the views for them

Kyle Turman

of all names, why is that your name

Chipper God

you guys HAVE to watch the first seasons PLEASE lol. from watching you guys' other reactions yall will definitely love this show and itll enhance this part a million tiimes more (though you very much could start here regardless of people throwing a fit about it lol thats typical with these fans)

Doc Anime!

I can’t wait for Sunday when they read some comments smh. This is just dumb……I mean DUMB AF

Jon Nelson

I’m guessing this was Navi’s choice…their local anime “expert”

Kyle Turman

Bless her, she's trying despite her obvious mistakes. I really like the Normies, and I hope they learn from feedback and reverse course

The Normies

coincidentally - and this was announced last week - there won't be SDR this week. rana is enjoying Eid celebrations and Suraj has to sit in for a few reactions today so we decided to not do SRD at all since neither of the two are available. we are however reading the comments and will be discussing them on monday.

Diego

Im one of the few thats not angry with you seeing this one, especially since I've been seeing some chatter online that Netflix seems to have prematurely released this one early and won't release info on whether this will be released in batches or weekly like in the past. That said, I'm glad you decided to take time to see a glimpse of this wonderful and also bizarre series that we all love passionately. Whatever happens, I do hope you continue with Jojos by starting in the beginning so that we can all experience the same feeling the fans felt when we watched this the 1st time. Me personally, I like both Dub and Sub, whichever one works is fine, either way this will be one of the most bizarre adventures you guys will take but also very funny too.

Julio Castillo

Ok so.... for the sake of closure..... i'll say this. It's not "Bad" to start with part 7... after all... when it was originally being published it was simply called "Steel Ball Run"... no "Jojo's Bizarre Adventure" or "Part 7" to be seen in the title. So it's clear that Araki (the author) initially wanted the audience to see it as new thing... separate from the Jojo brand. However.... later during publication the title did switch to "Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 7: Steel Ball Run", because even if it is technically a reboot..... it was clear as day that SBR was a continuation and a celebration of all the things Jojo's had stablished before. I will take the liberty to talk for the majority of people here and say that.... please don't take the outbursts too personally, im sure a good majority of them are just people who love this series (like me) and want you all to experience it in full. On behalf of this fandom.... i sincerely apologize for all the harsh words im sure you are receiving right now, but still...... i hope you are considering pausing this SBR reaction and starting the series properly from Par 1. I wish the Normies a very good day, and i'll see you later (hopefully in Phantom Menace xdd)

Shockzz1234

No, the Youtube release says it was their editor who put them on this path lol.

Shockzz1234

More like skipping Endgame and starting with Phase 4 because Phases 1-3, the Infinity Saga, are done and Phase 4 onwards is a new starting point.

Shockzz1234

Yeah, I've cooled off a bit now, but I think the main two things wrong with this are: A - People have been asking them to do Jojo's for years and then they finally do it but it's like this lol. If they were really interested in Jojo's, why not just start from Ep 1? It's a bit of a slap in the face to those who have been asking for it for literal years lol. Also, now it feels like we've been robbed of a first true Part 7 reaction, even if they do go back. And B - Like you said, Part 7 is kind of like a big celebration of all the other Parts that came before it. It's not necessarily bad to start with this Part (although you won't get some things that happen later on, and pretty much every reference will fly WAY over your heads, whether it's character references, inside jokes, musical references, callbacks etc), but it's like if a party was being held to celebrate something that was months, or even years, in the making and you invited yourself to the party and just showed up randomly despite not being invited, not contributing to the thing the party is celebrating or even not really knowing what the party is for in the first place lol. Like yeah you might still have fun at the party, because it's a party, but you're gonna be called out for being a poser and not getting what the party is even about lol.

Jackie Gibson

Agree 100% it was pretty funny to me how they managed to make everyone mad myself included 😅 but I hope they don't take it too personal, I've been with them for a while and know they are not frauds and genuinely care about the community, SDR and Normie Con are prime examples. If you see this Normies, you guys are still awesome and I hope this bump in the road doesn't stop you from enjoying making content and interacting with the community ♥️

lia

I loved the reaction but as a jojo fan i gotta tell u guys u should actually watch all of the other parts and make sure to watch them in sub not dub ❤️

Conor Philbey

Yeah I think people were also just shocked honestly. Because this came out of nowhere They didn't even react to the SBR trailers which doing so would have at least shown they had interest in watching it

Kyle Turman

Normies; sorry for being an asshole :(

MojoJojoGojo

I think alot of the comments werent to bad more funny of a outburst of like What?! Why?! But some were uncalled for...regardless they've been in this game for a while so they know how their patrons be. They'll be fine.

DustD

Maybe you guys heard something about this is a new beginning, but that's fundamentally misunderstand how JoJo as a series worked. It is a restart but the spirit of the show is continuing, some of basic theme the direction or even some basic world building won't be reiterate. This is like watching a stand alone anime movie without watching the series, or watch Star Wars tv shows without ever seen Star Wars. Or to a lesser extend, this is something like watching Doctor Who disney run without any knowledge of how this world work, and you at the end gonna wonder why the main white guy can split into a black guy. You definitely can do it, but is it good for reaction content? like, the name JoJo has weight behind it, when you see a Jostar you have attachment and basic understanding what this character moral or spirit are when you watch them. Just like in Star Wars, the name Skywalker has history and expectations, you don't just name a random dude Skywalker. But for you guys JoJo just a name that the show is name after. You don't get excited by name like Speedwagon, just like a person that doesn't know Star Wars don't give any reaction to the Andor S2's Temple on Yavin 4 reveal,. When you see the world been reveal to you, and because you don't know the world of the JoJo's, you would not have a reaction the fan of the world of JoJo want. Does this paragraph confuse you? Anyway. When a JoJo fan sees the word "spirit" I used, it means different because the context of the show, but for you guys that didn't have that context, it's just a choice of the word to describe the show. You guys won't know the difference, because you guys don't know what you missed, buy people watch the reactions will get less from you guys, and I think that's why a lot of people are disappointed, me included. Hope this will help you guys understand why people may want you to see the other part before this one. To you is not a big deal, but as a reaction watcher, at least for me, it's not the type content I want to watch.

J

Waited years for JoJo and yall start at part 7!!! Crazy work

J

I was hoping and praying the release for part 7 would inspire you guys to finally watch ome of the greatest animes ever. I literally couldnt wait for a JoJo reaction. And oh bOy did that Monkey Paw wish become a closed fist so fast lmfaooo.

ImperialOoze

Yesterday I watched the reaction and was fine with your choice but after thinking about it today, I think you guys should at least watch up to Part 3 before continuing. Because while it is a new beginning, there are a lot of shared themes and references that are going to go completely over your head. At first I considered your reaction the same as someone watching BCS before BB but I think this is worse since there are moments that hinge entirely on your knowledge from the first 3 Parts. So please try to at least finish up to Part 3 before continuing.

christopher

Jojo dub has to be a crime they are not using the real names

MagnaGlazer

it's in america. english is the better language for this part.

christopher

It's more about the names I dont really care about the dub/sub war, but in English they take out the reference. I mean come on sticky fingers compared to zipper man

Kyle Turman

Losing the references aint worth it. Sub keeps those references

Legion

Since the release for Steel Ball Run is going to be sporadic, they should start from the beginning. That way, hopefully, all of Steel Ball Run is fully released by the time they catch up

Arnezey

I wonder if they are going to go back and start from part 1

Momo Lilya

And now they won't be watching anymore :)
