Jo first struts into focus, pompadour on steroids cut and all, audience members lost their collective cool, like The Beatles just touched down on American soil for the first time. Diehard JOficionados Copyright spiked an energy that can be neither bottled nor explained, as they were harder than any diamond for glam rock Jo. Jo. And his mousy new friend. And white hat Michael Jackson impersonator. And Water Golem whose actual name is Aqua Necklace.

Thats how it felt, and even as you read these words, I struggle to grasp what entered my eyeballs that night. But Im going to try. Consider Takashi Miikes Diamond is Unbreakable adaptation Yu Gi Oh Avatar meets Liberace. There are special people who can control Stands these ethereal entities that possess unique powers. Only other Stand users can see rival Stands. Josuke Higashikata Kento Yamazaki, a Fonz like high school student, is one of these users. YuGiOhMoviePoster.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20080419222340' alt='Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie Movie Trailers' title='Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie Movie Trailers' />YuGiOh The Dark Side of Dimensions is a film that was released in Japan on April 23, 2016. His Stand Shining Diamond has a healers touch along with fists of fury. You dont mess with a Stand, as displayed when Josuke helps new kid Koichi Hirose Rynosuke Kamiki by chasing off some bullies who insulted his immaculate tuft of hair. Pay attention, because this is a major plot point no, seriously. Josuke repeatedly comes off as a hero in the films early scenes, only because someone dissed his do. Otherwise, the Stand controlling brat would have just walked away, never interjecting farther than a quippy remark. Enter a dude who looks like he drives a sketchy ice cream truck that parents keep their kids away from. This is Jotaro Kujo Ysuke Iseya, Josukes nephew despite being many years older. Wool 100% Streaming. A murderer is on the loose, a man named Anjuro Katagiri Takayuki Yamada, who Jotaro takes interest in. Why Because weve now met three Stand users Josuke, Jotaro and Anjuro. It turns out that Anjuro was bow and arrowed by some mullet braided punk in Josukes class named Keicho Nijimura Masaki Okada. His arrow can turn humans into Stand users if theyre selected, and hes up to no good. Keicho and brother Okuyasu Nijimura Mackenyu, who you guessed it is another Stand user, become Josukes rivals of sorts. Oh, and thats just the beginning. Miikes intent is to build the Jo. Jo verse brick by brick, coated in rich mythologies and rhinestone showiness. The problem is, the more characters involved, the more daunting a task this becomes. Theres so much to process between Josukes unconventional bloodline, rules about Stand usage and characters like Yukako Yamagishi Nana Komatsu who are given little purpose or backstory coming from an outsider. Miike battles against a 2 hour length only to produce something that feels doubly long. I know we complain about franchises splitting movies into part ones and twos The Hunger Games Mockingjay, for example, but Jo. Jos first live action run might have been more digestible in a smaller bite, not leaving you with a heavy stomach full of hair gel and demon water. Alternatively, what Miike accomplishes by way of action and oddities is slap your cheeks insanity. At any given moment, youll comprehend zero percent of whats happening, yet be hypnotized by colors, creative lunacy and animated chaos. Stand fights blend holographic visuals with totem representation that spans a signature plethora of user by user designs. Costume detailing flaunts flamboyant fabrics in Josukes trenchcoat Stand mafia. Hair and makeup magicians craft poofy masterpieces that define theme and tone Jotaros upwardly spiked back hat hair to later Super Saiyan influences. Melodramatic sentiments lead into the most bonkers, batshit crazy interactions like Josuke describing how he cut up a rubber glove, swallowed it, then used his Stand to trap the water monster in his belly before his inerts erupted. The title of this motion picture is Jo. Jos Bizarre Adventure AND ITS NO LIE. But, as previously alluded to, all is not bodies exploding into blue starbursts and Digimon esque Stand forms. Miike and writer Itaru Era pull the old multiple ending route and eventually drive momentum into a brick wall. Anjuro is positioned as the big bad of Jo. Jos Bizarre Adventure Diamond is Unbreakable, setting up an epic CG laced battle in Josukes flooded kitchen. Brawling spills outside, Josuke serves eternal punishment to Anjuro and then the movie proceeds through what seems like three more acts. Turns out Anjuro is only a mini boss, and the true boss battle pits Josuke against his brotherly competition Keicho and Okuyasu. We sit through another mini boss battle Okuyasu, leading to what must  be the grand finale. Keichos Worst Company his Stand is a shrunken military outfit complete with attack choppers, rockets and tanks squares off against Shining Diamond, there are some surprises and a victor emerges The film finally ends with wait, it doesnt end yet Another TREMENDOUSLY BIG reveal is dropped after two ending points have played outUnfortunately, yes. The third fifth Gaping plot holes permit each twist, like how Jotaro and his time stopping abilities are nowhere to be found during Josukes climatic stand off might have been useful. Cinematically, Jo. Jos Bizarre Adventure Diamond is Unbreakable is uneven, cobbled haphazardly and causes fatigue. Even with the introduction of a skull grilled car Stand who breaks through a window, strikes and then pulls a Hot Wheels esque escape. Out of nowhere. But as a live action manga built on the cornerstones of fashion, fighting and rebellious musical accompaniment Jo. Jo walks the catwalk with Stand sational swagger and helps accentuate the J rock awesomeness of Miikes most exciting face offs. Actors manage their overly caricatured high school arcs with either greaser coolness or sweaty palmed anxiety, all while Miike does what Japanese cinema does best gets really, unapologetically weird. And sporadically gruesome. Then sappy and sentimental, because thats how Japanese cinema rolls. Blemishes aside, Jo. Jos Bizarre Adventure Diamond is Unbreakable is a frenetic party watch for those who can make sense of Miikes seat of his pants vision. For the rest of us Get ready for a wig tastic royal rumble that expounds upon its own incomprehensible nuttiness, and have a blast questioning what sweet manga madness is unfolding before you.
