Do you actually enjoy the old Stardust Crusaders version?

My favorite adaptation and I honestly believe is superior to Araki's original work.
Only downside of the OVAs are not being a complete adaptation of Stardust Crusaders, but besides that, the OVAs are perfect.

Yes, because
>no digital wankery, still cel and paint
>authentic depiction of Cairo before mudslimes chimped out at minarets getting destroyed
>headed by Satoshi Kon before he would go on to play with time in his Maruyama-produced filmography, the final encounter of DIO vs Jotaro is basically tailored for his direction

Yeah, it's very fun. They fucked up the Vanilla Ice fight but N'doul and D'arby are very well done and Dio's World is plenty of fun, with ups and downs both brought about by its changes from the manga.

So good. The anime does some things better but when the OVA hits it fuckin hits.

it's different, lost the humor of the manga and focused on the horror elements, cut out a lot of stand fights, but I like it for what it is. that 90's animation with quality isn't made that much anymore.

The chase between Joseph and Dio is amazing. A little girl is shopping with her mother, for a second she notices something strange, a couple of strangers are flying above them. The scene switches to Joseph running away from Dio luring him into Kakyoin's ambush.

It's a mixed bag mainly carried by how much better cel animation with 3-tone shading looks compared to modern anime.

The N'Doul fight is amazing in the OVA. Makes me wish the modern JoJo adaptations had good directors instead of just tracing manga panels.

That's a prime example of rose tinted glasses. It's better than the manga in some aspects but clearly worse in others. Vanilla Ice's encounter is ruined beyond repair.

I like everything, with the exception of Vanilla Ice, better than the source material

Yeah. I don't really about canon just about overall execution. It looks ten times better than the show in the later parts because it uses basic film school techniques. I really love the dolly shots

Anon, I first saw the modern adaptation by David Productions and after that I saw the OVAs. This same year by the way.
Nostalgia is not a factor, the OVAs are superb and the superior adaptation for me.

too abridged to be taken seriously, but the 1993 version is a decent enough commercial for the manga

It's better than the original manga. At that time Jojo was very shonen with few fights deviating from that formula. This adaptation is an improvement, although the tone sometimes feels wrong

Absolutely. It is a bit too short, cutting too much content from Part 3 overall but what it does, it does amazingly and obviously the last boss fight against Dio is classic.
It should've been 7-9 episodes or so overall and it would've been perfect.

But acting like it's superior to the original work is just you feeling forced nostalgia and pretending that because the animation's good, that means the work as a whole is better (it's not).

The fight with DIO and Jotaro at the end was really well directed, seeing Stands obliterate shit while unseen was a cool choice for some shots.

The anime should have taken Dio disappearing silently from the OVA, at least when it's from the perspective of his victim, instead of every time using that loud clock/dubstep sound effect.

I don't agree with it being superior but I do believe it is a work that stands to be remembered for its own merits. The OVA is gorgeous

They really raped the ZA WARUDO, when OVA was so subtle about it
