jokak fantasy samurai au where kakyoin is sent by dio to assassinate jotaro but like ofc doesn't LOL (basically an excuse to use my old arms and armour of the samurai textbook). more to come later 👀

click for nicer quality/rbs appreciated/dont tag as kin please

[skysquid22]

I got tagged by @yuyevon to post some summaries of my current WIPs, thank you! I technically have 4 in total, but I haven’t touched two of them in several months, so they’re on the back back burner.

As for tagging, I shall give @fuckerao3 and @oh-little-owl a tag, whatcha writin’?

1. Born Under Punches - A semi-High School AU with Stands. At first Kakyoin, the new transfer student, just seems to be a strange bully, but as it turns out he’s got a ghost helping him hurt people. Jotaro fights him and makes fast friends with Kakyoin, learning that he was the only person who could see Kakyoin’s Stand. Cue a long simmer for the discovery of Jotaro’s Stand and maybe they fall in love while they’re at it ;D This fic also doubles as a a very long and windy character introspection.

2. I Fell In Love With My Assassination Target?! - Send by DIO to kill Jotaro, Kakyoin sets out to do just that, but accidentally falls in love with him. Paired with the evil influence of DIO, Kakyoin takes on a very... different definition of what it means to love someone and how to go about it. All the while Stand users are sent in to finish the job Kakyoin hasn’t quite left behind.

Part 2 of the Joestar headcanons~! Here are the JoBros~! And honestly any side characters that make a significant sort of impact to the JoJo’s~! I hope you guys like these ones as well~!

» » Admin Ko

»»————-　♔　————-««

𝔻𝕚𝕠 𝔹𝕣𝕒𝕟𝕕𝕠 [28]

Jonathon’s step-brother. Despite being the same age, he doesn’t really like to associate himself with the Joestar name. 

He definitely enjoys the family business. In actuality, he was the first to show immense interest in the family business; that instead of originally murdering the family line, he choose to join it.

Dio was actually the one who managed to convince and persuade Jonathon into pursuing the family business. 

It happened on a whim when the blond witnessed something he never thought would occur from the usual gentle giant.

From that, it just furthered his own suspicions of Jonathon’s true nature. 

When the time came for the assignment of roles Dio was honestly pissed when he was told that Jonathon would be the head of the family. 

He actually went MIA for a month because of it. Though within that time he gained his own following and honed his own skills. He actually didn’t get to hear what his position was after he left in a blind rage.

He only found out later by his younger brother Diego, that Jonathon had actually given him the second in command position. Though with further interrogation and investigating, Dio was pleased to find out that he would be the head of the family whenever Jonathon was away on some sort of business.

It wasn’t as much as he’d like, but it was an essential step to get to the point he wanted. 

Unlike Jonathon, Dio has made base in both England and Japan. Though he prefers England as it’s his original stomping ground, as well as the fact that none of the other Joestar siblings have made a strong foothold in the country. 

He actually frequents chats and flies to Italy to see Giorno. (His favorite Joestar) 

Though he does dabble with the drug world, and Giorno vehemently will avoid the older if he’s in the middle of a transaction or in the process of shipments.

𝕎𝕚𝕝𝕝𝕚𝕒𝕞 𝔸. ℤ𝕖𝕡𝕡𝕖𝕝𝕚 [35]

Jonathon’s advisor and teacher.

While growing up, William was open and subjected to be put through various tasks and lessons. Despite being 8 years older than Jonathon, he holds a lot more experience in regards to fighting. Though initially, William wanted a simple life for Jonathon, he isn’t upset to see his life long friend and disciple by his side. 

Like Jonathon, William stays in Japan to help with the bigger controls around the business and will always update the younger with what has been going on with his siblings. 

William actually isn’t sent out on as many missions as he had when he first started helping the Joestar family. 

Practically everyday, he and Jonathon will spar and train to keep up with the demands of the business and the dangers that fell alongside it. 

ℝ𝕠𝕓𝕖𝕣𝕥 𝔼. 𝕆. 𝕊𝕡𝕖𝕖𝕕𝕎𝕒𝕘𝕠𝕟 [29]

Jonathon’s go to assassin.

If anything arises that his siblings cannot handle or their leading commanders can’t handle, then SpeedWagon will be the one sent in to clean up the mess left.

He’s rather skilled in the art of the blade, and actually met Jonathon through his specialty.

It had been Jonathon’s first mission gone wrong, but was salvaged by the end thanks to SpeedWagon joining forces with the brute force that was a Joestar.

He has a very big distrust for the Brando siblings. Despite the work they do, SpeedWagon feels as though it’s uncanny how utterly perfect this chance came to the Brando siblings. 

He does tell his distastes to Jonathon, whom brushes it off, and will always avoid either one of them if they happen to come to the Joestar estate.

𝔼𝕣𝕚𝕟𝕒 ℙ𝕖𝕟𝕕𝕝𝕖𝕥𝕠𝕟 [27]

One of the Joestar medics. Though she mainly helps work through injuries as a renowned doctor, she actually dabbles a bit in the art of torture via medical knowledge. 

She’s gotten advice from someone on Giorno’s assassination team. Despite being shocked at the incredulous amount of info and horrific experiments done, Erina will admit that it is effective in getting what information is needed from a mole / rat. 

She rarely uses the advice from the Italian, but when she does everyone is absolutely steering clear out of her way.

ℂ𝕒𝕖𝕤𝕒𝕣 ℤ𝕖𝕡𝕡𝕖𝕝𝕚 [25]

The right hand man of Joseph Joestar.

Despite getting off on the wrong footing, they’re a rather dangerous and chaotic duo.

Every other week (or day), they’re up to something that’ll not only give the world a terrifying reminder of the underworld, but many scarring incidents as well. 

Despite Josephs desire to cause chaos all over the world, Caesar is actually the one who keeps him in line with arguments pertaining to how utterly stupid it would be to get exposed so soon.

Instead, Caesar usually pitches in ideas to corrupt high ranking individuals to help further the Joestar name and terror the name brings.

𝕃𝕚𝕤𝕒 𝕃𝕚𝕤𝕒 [26]

Joseph’s go to assassin. 

In any case or scenario that any of the siblings need extra assistance, they’ll each send their most skilled assassin; and for Joseph’s case it’s LisaLisa.

Though no one really knows her true name-- except a select few -- she’s a well respected assassin within the Joestar ranks. She’s constantly teaching and providing feedback to those she deems worthy of being her students.

The moment Caesar needs someone to step in to keep Joseph from doing anything out of line she’s the first he calls. 

Will absolutely rip Joseph a new one if he tries to do anything remotely stupid that could jeopardize the whole family. 

In regards to her skills, she’s one of the few assassins who has a very large skill set and has practically mastered every skill she has learned / acquired with time. 

𝕊𝕦𝕫𝕚𝕖 ℚ [24]

The analyst and medic of Joseph’s team.

She’s brash and straight forward to the other male, and like Lisa Lisa, she’ll definitely put him in his place if he tries to do anything stupid.

Is the second person Caesar calls to stop Joseph from doing anything absolutely stupid. 

Suzie takes the time to learn more medical expertise from Erina whenever they decide to visit the Joestar estate in Japan. 

Like the others though, she will actively avoid going into the operating room if Cioccholata is on the premises. She’s honestly shocked that Erina doesn’t mind the mad doctor’s company. 

She definitely speaks to William whenever she can to get advice and teachings on new strategies and analytical measures for future use. 

𝕂𝕒𝕜𝕪𝕠𝕚𝕟 ℕ𝕠𝕣𝕚𝕒𝕜𝕚 [22]

Jotaro’s right hand man and main assassin. 

Unlike the rest of the Joestar siblings, Kakyoin is one of the three assassins that Jotaro has decided to take under his faction. 

His expertise lies in gun work and sniping rather than anything relative to close combat. 

He was actually the one who gave Jolyne the pointers in hanging rowdy inmates by their toes from the watchtowers. 

Besides being the main assassin, Kakyoin works alongside Jotaro with the cyber end of the underworld along with the transactions. 

𝕁𝕖𝕒𝕟 ℙ𝕚𝕖𝕣𝕣𝕖 ℙ𝕠𝕝𝕟𝕒𝕣𝕖𝕗𝕗 [23]

Second out of the three assassins.

He’s actually sent out the most on missions when shipments end up getting a little too...messy. 

He’s seen how annoyed Jotaro gets with the lack of brain cells a bunch of the suppliers and buyers don’t have and will order an execution with no hesitation if he sees a fatal mistake that could be detrimental to the business. 

Compared to Kakyoin, Polnareff is skilled with the wide variety of blades readily available to him. Though he prefers the simple long rapier to ensure precise cuts, he can work with just about any blade handed to him.

����𝕦𝕙𝕒𝕞𝕞𝕒𝕕 𝔸𝕧𝕕𝕠𝕝 [24]

The last of the assassins within Jotaro’s precinct and the advisor.

He’s usually the level-headed and mediator out of the four of them, and will not hesitate to lecture or knock some sense into any of them if they allow their emotions to take a hold of their thought process.

Unlike Kakyoin and Polnareff, Avdol prefers a more...explosive route. With his assassinations, he imbeds bombs to the location. Majority of them being in public and covered up as a mishap.

Despite being a voice behind a fuzzy mic, he still delivers absolute fear to the victims .

“All Jotaro’s other targets are dead. Except for you.” Malika cocked her head, considering Kakyoin. “After he came back the last time and he was…alone in there, I…grew him flowers, a few times. I wasn’t supposed to. But he was in the dark for so long. I thought he wouldn’t mind losing a little bit of blood as long as it reminded him there was still something left.”

“What do you mean,” Kakyoin said slowly, “‘in the dark’?”

Malika didn’t answer. White flowers unfurled from her forearm, gentle trickles of blood rising up the thin stems. She watched them thoughtfully.

White poppy; consolation.

She plucked a poppy out of her arm and held it carefully between two fingers. “You have to get him out,” she said. “You have to.”

What if the fleshbud was, like, advanced kinning

(see link for the birth of this really dumb idea)

There is a criminally small amount of info on what fleshbuds Actually Do in canon, and I'm frankly quite sick of it. So, fuck you Araki! I'm creating my own terrible crack fleshbud lore based on one (1) manga panel and there is nothing anyone can do to stop me.

...I also don't currently have internet access on my PC, so fuck my followers too! I can't add a readmore to this post until I find a new wi-fi receiver that actually fucking works. I apologise on behalf of the tumblr devs for their dysfunctional mobile app. : D

~

So, this is a capture from the Stardust Crusaders manga, where Shadow DIO seems to be admiring his own shoddy Kakyoin cosplay in the mirror:

Truly the height of fashion.

I don't know where in the manga this comes from, and I don't really care to know - I am a crack connoisseur and, depending on my mood at any given moment, I Will make canon my bitch - however, we will make the assumption that this image dates to a point in time after DIO took Kakyoin under his control, but before he is sent to assassinate Jotaro, subsequently leading to the removal of his fleshbud by Star Platinum.

As we all know, fleshbuds created from DIO's cells take control of their victims' minds to some extent, ensuring their loyalty to and willingness to work for their beloved vampire overlord DIO-sama~. It doesn't seem to make any fundamental changes to the personality, maybe dulling their emotions a little and inhibiting their ability to ask questions like "should I really be travelling halfway across the world as a seventeen-year-old schoolboy to kill this random guy I've never heard of before?"

But like, what if "dulling their emotions" really means that DIO is inadvertently stealing them for himself?

I realise how fucking stupid this sounds, but also shuddup rational brain you don't belong in a JoJo's Bizarre Adventure crack dissertation

(ahem) But it makes me giggle to think about DIO just standing in front of a mirror in the dead of night, all brooding and depressed like, styling his hair to look like this random Japanese guy he picked up off the street and probably rawed half to death an hour beforehand because he accidently stole like a third of his personality

I also enjoy the idea of him budding Polnareff and then panicking because he thinks the assimilation of Polnareff's strong moral compass into his own is Jonathan's soul trying to possess him and steal back his body or some shit

i kinda lost my gusto in the middle of writing this because i don't words very well. sorry about that. please feel free to reblog and add your own input to this shitty idea

fic: you wouldn’t know what to do if you caught me

jojo’s bizarre adventure | kujo jotaro & kakyoin noriaki | gen, 12k

The difference between Kakyoin Noriaki and all of the other targets that Dio wants him to kill is that Kakyoin Noriaki survives.

Part 3 AU where Kakyoin is a threat to Dio because of his ability to undo Dio's brainwashing, and Jotaro is the evil, brainwashed assassin sent to kill Kakyoin instead.

Counterpart to @blasphemings’ roleswap au, “nothing like the sun,” which can be found in the series listing. 

[zeravmeta]

You know, thinking back on it now, all of Jotaro's early scenes in part 3 wheres he's genuinely mean to Holly (and not just a snarky teenager) only happen when he's near Joseph. Holly recounts how Jotaro was always a sweet boy before "something changed" (presumably when he got his stand and accidentally brutalized some thugs), and Jotaro, when he was alone with Holly was alot more calm than when around Joseph, EVEN in the scene where he's dragging Kakyoin through his house

Its possible Jotaro was agitated and lashing out because he knew that something might happen with Holly (Jotaro is a VERY insightful person), since the start of Part 3 is Jotaro having thrown himself in prison because his stand manifested and suddenly his grandpa (who previosuly wanted nothing to do with him since he's NEVER VISTED OR CALLED beforehand) came to see him and knew what was happening.

Jotaro likely considers Holly his only family since his dad is never around, he's never even heard of Joseph before this and he doesn't really have any friends, so when all these sudden changes were happening in his life he lashed out indiscriminately, since while he was mean to Holly, he was even more vicious to Joseph and Avdol (Jotaro was literally a step away from killing Avdol in their first encounter). He didn't even go on the trip to Egypt because of DIO being resurrected, he went because his mom was in danger. He didn't even care that Kakyoin was an assassin sent to kill him, he only really bothered with DIO when his mom was in danger.

KASAI 181 BRING PEN

It’s not like Jotaro makes it a habit to listen to what other people say to him, but this is too strange of a case. He doesn’t remember doing this to himself, but if he didn’t do it, then who? And if he did do it, then why can’t he remember? ---- Four months after Egypt, and there is something strange happening back at home.

I am the desert by catboysam Jotaro hated to admit it to himself, but despite the fact that he hadn't teared up when they left Japan, he missed his grandfather’s presence. After having him beside him for so long and through so much, being separated from him felt… almost wrong. Like another thing was missing. And the more he lingered on that thought, the more the lack of Polnareff's presence felt wrong too. Jotaro invites Polnareff to his high school graduation.

Psycho Analysis: Rubber Soul

(WARNING! This analysis contains SPOILERS!)

Someone old me I’m just not getting the point behind these villains, and not understanding the complexity of such brilliant antagonists as Steely Dan and Arabia Fats. That I just don’t do justice to the brilliant concepts of the magnetic flirty boob woman, or the actual orangutan who controls the ocean liner. I just want to apologize; JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is a 100% deep, complex series and all of the minor one-shot antagonists are utterly brilliant on every single level, with no flaws and tons of incredible, brilliant symbolism and narrative significance.

Today, we must delve deep down into the sheer brilliance of Araki’s mind to uncover the genius of Rubber Soul, AKA “RERORERORERO Bug-Eating Fake Kakyoin Man.” Truly he is an antagonist for the record books.

Ok, before I go on – yes, I’m joking. While Araki definitely does his homework for the most part and adds plenty of interesting background notes to characters that help make them work symbolically and thematically, that still doesn’t always translate great to being a good villain, and it doesn’t change the fact that as villains, they are rather simplistic. Like a lot of thought went into, say, ZZ and his Stand but that doesn’t make him as good of an antagonist as Vanilla Ice, who has seemingly less thematic importance.

And then there are characters who aren’t thematic or symbolic, at least not that I can comprehend, who are enjoyable nonetheless – Rubber Soul is definitely one of those.

Actor: Ray Chase, who you may know as the Master of Masters from Kingdom Hearts or much more likely as Fire Emblem’s Roy in the Smash Bros. games among many other roles, portrays Rubber Soul, and he definitely brings that Roy Chase charm to the role. Frankly though, this – as well as the other minor Stand users – have made me realize that maybe the “Actor” segment can be dropped in cases like this, where the voice is not outstanding in either regard. Going forward that will be the case, mostly in regards to VAs.

Motivation/Goals: You surely know the drill by now – this guy is just an assassin sent by DIO to kill Jotaro and the gang. There’s not much else to him, really; early in Stardust Crusaders the Stand users rarely ever got more than this, and Rubber Soul’s personality doesn’t exactly give any hints aside from perhaps money.

Personality: This is where Rubber Soul truly shines. He’s an arrogant narcissistic, he’s a scumbag, he’s smug… and when he’s pretending to be Kakyoin he goes out of his way to act as un-Kakyoin as possible. Well, except for the cherry bit, weirdly enough. It’s just simply amazing how poorly and out-of-character he is while trying to pull off an impersonation, it’s simply beautiful.

Final Fate: Once Jotaro has him dead to rights, he begs for mercy… only to try and attack Jotaro when his guard is down. Instead, he gets a very satisfying beatdown from Star Platinum, crushing that pretty little face of his.

Best Scene: When he has a nice tasty snack out of some beetles. He sure does love those coconuts.

Best Quote: You know what it is – “LICKLICKLICKLICKLICKLICKLICK.” Or perhaps, “OH YES, I DO LOVE COCONUTS. THEY’RE MY FAVORITE.” The latter is said in the most obviously sinister tone of voice you can imagine. How did this guy keep the jig up so long again?

Final Thoughts & Score: Rubber Souls is an entertaining villain from the early stretches of Jotaro’s journey, and he gives us one of the most memorable and noteworthy memes associated with Kakyoin, one that has persisted through the years. He does a good job at being an unlikable jerk you want to see get beat up while at the same time providing a suitable challenge, and of course he also kills a dog, because Araki had something serious against dogs back in the 80s.

Rubber Soul is a 6/10. He’s an extremely simple character, but boy does he leave his mark on the franchise with his utterly insane Kakyoin disguise. I’d rate him a little higher if I thought maybe there was more to him with the Stand name and tarot motifs and all that, but he seems to have gone to the “Arabia Fats School of Having Jack to Do With the Tarot Your Stand is Named For.”

Just the sheer audacity of this guy, though, keeps him from being too low. His impersonation of Kakyoin reveals him to be an idiot of the highest order, a buffoon to an unheard of degree… and yet, despite all that, he still manages to be cooler and more threatening than the impostor Captain Tenille, a guy who actually put effort into his disguise. It really is amazing what a little more personality and a lot more Kakyoin tongue action can do for a character. Shame though that he’s just a boring Kakyoin palette swap for his playable appearance in Heritage For the Future, bringing the Kakyoin total in the game up to three. That game sure did love its Kakyoins.

Toonami Weekly Recap 12/02/2017 - Black Clover is now on Toonami.

Black Clover EP#01 - Asta and Yuno: There are currently no episode summaries for this anime at this time.

Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans Season 2 EP#07 (32) - My Friend: McGillis takes down several Arbrau Mobile Suit units for his team to cut through Arbrau’s defense line before engaging with Galan, Takaki, and Aston. Upon being asked if what they are doing is on Orga’s orders, Takaki hesitates but then recklessly attacks McGillis, only to get outmatched by the Graze Ritter. Aston sacrifices himself to save Takaki and trap McGillis before Mikazuki arrives and intervenes in the melee, forcing Galan and his troops to retreat. With Tekkadan’s arrival, a ceasefire is declared while the situation is assessed. Later, Eugene and Akihiro corner Radiche, demanding Galan’s whereabouts. As Tekkadan surrounds Galan’s hideout, Hush panics on his first Mobile Suit sortie while Akihiro pins down Galan in battle. Rather than to surrender to Tekkadan, Galan self-destructs his Geirail, taking all evidence of his actions with him. Tekkadan further interrogates Radice, who attempts to talk his way out until Takaki asks to deal with him personally with Mikazuki’s gun.

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders EP#16 - The Lovers, Part 1: As the group stop by a kebab shop in Karachi, the store owner turns out to be Steely Dan, wielder of the Lovers Stand, who gloats as Enya is killed by some of DIO’s flesh buds that Steely Dan had implanted in her body to keep her from revealing the truth. She dies, still believing in DIO rather than telling Joseph the truth about DIO’s Stand. Jotaro has Star Platinum attack Steely Dan, only for Joseph to be simultaneously thrown back. Steely Dan reveals he has used his microscopic Stand The Lovers to enter Joseph’s ear, where it causes any pain inflicted on himself to be amplified and sent to Joseph, even paying a child to hit him with a stick to prove he is not lying. He also reveals that The Lovers will begin implating a flesh bud which will kill Joseph in 10 minutes. Jotaro, though angry, restrains himself as he caters to Steely Dan’s whims to prevent him from hurting his grandfather. Meanwhile, Joseph, Kakyoin, and Polnareff seek out a television so Joseph can use Hermit Purple to make an image of the inside of his brain, allowing Kakyoin and Polnareff to shrink down their Stands to enter his body and locate The Lovers in order to save his life.

Lupin the 3rd EP#21 - To Hear Your Sing Again: Lupin steals an old Fiat 500 “Topolino” from a vintage cars’ dealer, and Zenigata cannot arrest him because the car is extremely precious and could be damaged. The Fiat in fact belongs to an aged italian singer, Nora Anita, who is now at the brink of death, and her husband has decided to sell anything that could make him remember her love when she’ll be dead to avoid further suffering. However, the car seems to have some sort of independent will, forcing Lupin to travel to a peaceful place on the banks of a lake, a place used by Nora and her husband as their private love refuge in their youth. Nora, in her heart, wanted to feel for the last time all that peaceful and beautiful sensations, and this feeling had been “absorbed” by the car, giving her a proper consciousness.

Hunter x Hunter: Greed Island Finale EP#75 - Ging’s Friends × And × True Friends: Gon, Killua and Biscuit are challenged when they finally get all 99 reserved card slots. An in-game event takes place to win the #00 card.

Outlaw Star EP#13 - Advance Guard from Another World: Gene and Jim set up a business on Heifong, and the crew members take on various jobs around the city, which all come together in a confrontation with a mind-controlling cactus and its giant insect servant.

Cowboy Bebop EP#11 - Toys in the Attic: A strange blob-like creature with a venomous bite infiltrates the Bebop and incapacitates Jet, Faye and Ein. With half the crew out of action, it’s up to Spike and Ed to destroy the creature and find out where it came from.

This episode makes reference to the movie Alien, with Spike using a motion tracker and a flamethrower and by having the characters slowly attacked by an unknown alien one by one. The scene where Spike ejects the refrigerator into space was inspired by the scene in Aliens, where Ripley gets rid of the Alien queen. The episode’s use of “Waltz of the Flowers” from The Nutcracker is reminiscent of the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey’s use of well-known classical music.

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig EP#05 (31) - IN: Those Who Have the Motive – INDUCTANCE: Prime Minister Kayabuki has formally renounced the Refugee Special Action Policy; a move that has drawn much criticism from refugees all over Japan. While on a tour of Dejima Island, a major center for the refugee population, the Prime Minister receives an assassination threat, and Aramaki is summoned to Fukuoka to offer his insight. The cabinet wants Section 9 to protect the Prime Minister, a role the team reluctantly agrees to. Meanwhile, Ishikawa and Togusa uncover interesting information on the ideology of the Individual Eleven terrorist group. It seems the organization has ties to the May 15 Incident, in which a group of army officers assassinated a former Prime Minister and then gained support from the general population for their undying conviction in their beliefs. Elsewhere, the Prime Minister arrives at a Buddhist Temple to meditate, but is unexpectedly confronted by an assassin. Thanks to a swift response from Kusanagi and Batou, Kayabuki is spared certain death, but in the ensuing chaos the assassin manages to elude Section 9.

Hunter x Hunter’s first episode of the Chimera Ant Arc, which will be 61 episodes long and may possibly end on April 20, 2019, will air next week.

Okay but that full force Dio showing up in that baby carry on thingy when the SDC try and fight him maybe???

“I’m not punching a baby.”

Jotaro and company stood, staring at Dio at a distance. Kakyoin hadn’t yet gone into throes with Dio one on one, Polnareff was nowhere to be seen, and Joseph clenched his teeth to try and rid himself of this awkward confrontation. Dio stood as menacingly as he could, but the child strapped to him would keep looking back curiously.

“Mr. Joestar. I understand what we need to do…” Kakyoin covered up his mouth with his hand and whispered. “But doesn’t this feel a bit wrong?”

“Well, we could get the kid off of him.”

“I’m not stealing a baby, either.” Jotaro answered immediately.

“I didn’t say we were going to punch or steal the baby! We just have to get it away from him and… set it down somewhere.”

Dio scoffed. “Do you announce all of your plans like this?”

“I don’t want to orphan someone, even if it is Dio’s child…”

“Then what do we do?”

–

Holly sat upright back in her home miles away. The vines on her back no longer pained her, and instead, wiggled comfortably and helped her grab the cup of water next to her. Though her doctors rushed around her, all she could think of was what just had happened.

–

“We should’ve killed him! That abomination of a human being had my grandfather’s body…!”

“It was nice of him to give us an antidote. Of course, not as nice as not sending his assassins after us. He could have like, sent a priority package if he didn’t want to start shit with us. Didn’t he vow to kill you two?”

“Yeah, but then his baby started crying… he said we can pick up where we left off later. When his kid is in high school, or something.”

And that’s a wrap for tonight~! Well, safe to say that things got all kinds of weird tonight. Certainly saw a lot more of certain characters than I ever wanted to in my life. But, that’s kind of the fun of Toonami nights! Ya never really know what it’s gonna throw at ya! Speaking of which, let’s recap over tonight’s surprises. Dragon Ball Super: Vegeta made good on his word and gave Frost the quick beatdown that he so rightly deserved~ Now, his next opponent is a strange steam/magma powered metal head who’s all out to prove that he’s heavier than the Prince of all Saiyans can handle! Meanwhile, Frost, bruised and defeated, has a quick run in with a certain Hit-man. DBZ: Trunks searches high and low for the dragonball radar, only to find that it was in the one place he didn’t expect, a plane in a capsule! Perfect timing too, Goku’s pretty much had his fill of knocking Buu around and he leaves on an interesting note which drives Buu to take matters, and Babidi’s head, into his own hands~! King Yemma’s gonna have a fun time sending him to Hell after the massive workload Babidi’s sent his way. Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: An ominous message from Hermit Purple, a traitor amongst the gang, all eyes set on Kakyoin and his odd behavior. But, can it be true? It seems that the warning was all too true, however, the truth goes far deeper than they thought! A wolf in sheep’s clothing, [Yellow Temperance] took Kakyoin’s form to get the drop on our heroes! Unfortunately for him, he was unwise to just how ruthless and clever Jotaro can be! Not only does he [Star Platinum] beat him senseless, he also manages to get the skinwalker to spill the beans about the others on Dio’s “payroll” Tokyo Ghoul: Makes it’s exit and burns everything left behind. Kaneki’s left to wander wherever he may, and the coffee shop is no more. The fighting is over(?), bodies liter the streets, all is quiet, and many, MANY, M A N Y , questions are left unanswered. (Unless you read the manga) Hunter X Hunter: After pulling a fast one on a group of pirates, Gon, Killua, and Bisky find themselves in need of some assistance. They’ll have to gather up some pretty strong nen users in order to progress... and who is their first pick? The clown that makes everyone’s skin crawl, Hisoka, of all people. Lupin the 3rd: the impossible has been realized, Lupin’s in the slammer. but, does that mean it’s the end of the world’s greatest thief? Oh, goodness, no~ Through some clever mind games, Lupin gets himself locked up in the perfect situation, with Pops as his only guard. Which puts the old detective in the age old spot of “What now?” even more so as Lupin claims to be starving himself to death! (Also featuring a surprise musical appearance by R Kelly~) Naruto: The memories of pain and suffering seem to have moved Nagato enough to use the last of his energy to revive everyone who was lost in the attack on the village, who greets Naruto as the hero he truly is.  Outlaw Star: Gene takes a bullet, or a sword in this case, for his friend Fred, and draws the attention of an assassin with a deadly wooden sword. However, even an assassin’s swift strike is no match for an outlaw’s quicker wit and bargaining skills. Cowboy Bebop: Animal activists or eco terrorists? Either way, it’s up to Spike and the gang to put a stop to a mad group who’s armed and dangerous who will stop at nothing to spread their message, even if it means making humans go ape! Literally! Attack On Titan: Eren and his captors are on the move as things are getting a little dicey, and he’s gonna holler the entire time. Can’t blame him though, I’d be pretty angry too in his position. With Tokyo Ghoul taking it’s leave from the block, we’ve got something special coming in to fill the void~! Iron Blooded Orphans, Season 2, is all suited up and ready for battle next week! Hope to see you then! Until next time, my friends, crewmates, and fellow faithfuls STAY GOLD!
