I Just Started The Part 3 Manga, And I Think A Lot Of My Problems With Jotaro Are Specific To The Anime.
I just started the part 3 manga, and I think a lot of my problems with jotaro are specific to the anime. I never really thought of the animation as “stiff,” but in the manga, jotaro has a lot of subtle expressions that give the impression that this is a scared kid trying his best to act tough. In the anime however, his expressions are so unmoving that he just comes across as a one-dimensional “tough guy” type. In the manga, he’s a dick to his mother bc that’s what teenagers do when they’re stressed. In the anime, he’s a dick to his mother bc he is a dick. In the anime, jotaro tries to kill avdol for no reason. In the manga, he begs avdol not to interfere because he’s afraid of killing him.
Also, in the anime, he calls star platinum an evil spirit, and as the audience you’re just like, oh this seems like a neutral spirit- he must think it’s evil for superstitious reasons. In the manga, star platinum can talk independently from jotaro’s thoughts, and threatens avdol with no input from him. Also the first close up of star platinum looks like this. Which is, to put it nicely, fucking terrifying. He looks like N’doul.
So it’s like, oh okay, I get it now. Jotaro is completely understandable.
