Ok while we all wait for Steel ball run to have more episodes. What's a scene from the manga that you can't wait to see animated?

I'll go first:

I feel bad for the newer JoJo fans who got into Jojo when all of parts 1-6 were already out on Netflix and when Steel ball Run finally released were denied weekly jojo episodes, and now have to wait until fall for weekly episodes...

My Thoughts on Wings of Fire: Legends Darkstalker.

A fair warning...all of these thoughts are gonna be random with no particular order to things....oh and...

VERY OBVIOUS SPOILERS AHEAD, IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE BOOK PLEASE SCROLL AWAY!!!

Holy shit y'all....Darkstalker is...crazy or at least the events that transpired and his own delusions made him that way. His manipulation of others is just so scary to think about and the fact that he does this to not only his true love, (The earrings he gave her keeping her focused on happier futures), his best friend (ENCHANTING HIS GIRLFRIEND TO BE CURSED INTO A SMALL STATUE AND MAKING HIM THINK HE LEFT HER?!?!) and many other dragons are just.....terrifying.

I do feel bad that he never got to know what exactly happened to his mother and losing her caused his spiral into evil but I do have one criticism specifically with his murder of his father. He had his father right where he wanted, obeying his every command, kneeling to him in front of the Nightwings and instead of convincing the Queen to use him as a constantly tortured prisoner until negotiations with Queen Diamond were made or something like that he just killed him. (I understand he was too far gone mentally but still that's free leverage!!)

I like the fact that at first when the soul reader was used on him he started off still mostly good, but by the time we get to arc 2 of the main wings of fire story he's evil as hell. (Granted I would be too if I were sealed for 2,000 plus years and betrayed by my girlfriend)

All and all, Darkstalker is just like his dad, his own pride and power really was his downfall.

Clearsight...oh poor Clearsight!! Homegirl is constantly stuck doing that one thing Doctor Strange did in Infinity war, going through multiple futures and trying to go to the best one but failing in the end!! She definitely deserved that vacation in Pantala and her new husbands!! I wanna give her a hug, a chai tea and some calming music she can listen too!! I also need somebody to give me an AU where Clearsight never accepted the moonstone earrings and could see the darker paths and figured out a quicker way to stop Darkstalker please and thank you!!

Fathom is just like his descendant fr!! Yeah he didn't really do much until the end and was, much like Turtle did in his book, but once he did do something it ended up saving the world! I do find it...strange that both Fathom and Turtle were used as opposites to Darkstalker in terms of Animus powers and how they're used. Also him and Indigo are adorable together.

Alright that's all my thoughts for now! Gotta get back to reading the rest of Arc 3!

Hey wings of fire Tumblr can y'all clear up something for me?

POSSIBLE SPOILERS FOR ARC 3 BTW!!!

Why is it that in all of the thousands of years dragons have existed....none of them have thought of making a boat? The Phyrrians have no excuse bro they could've been inspired by the seawings or something and been like: "Hmm...I wanna travel across the ocean like the seawings can but I'll probably drown...unless I can make something that floats above the water!!"

And don't tell me it's not possible cause the implied time period these guys are in is the middle ages...ya know what people had in the middle ages?! BOATS!!

[applinjam]

So guess who's reading Legends Dragonslayer!!

MINOR SPOILERS FOR ARC 3!!

I was almost done with arc 3 when Sky got introduced (to me) in the fourth book I kept listening to the audiobook thinking nothing of it but I wanted to know more so I halted listening to arc 3 (I'm now on book 5) and am now listening to Dragonslayer.

I gotta say I love the POV of the scavengers, especially Leaf, his parents suck....let the boy slay dragons!!

Also please NO SPOILER IN THE COMMENTS OR REBLOGS!!! Thank you!
