They were on my reading list and then Season 8 happened and I lost all interest. I think I'm over the show, so I'll put the books back on my list. I can't wait to read our queen's journey!!!

The books are much more richer than the series, Characters are much more nuanced and layered. I understand the screen writers couldn't adapt some things and they had actor demands and other factors to consider but I feel as if they simply wanted a popular show and didn't care for a good story.

Yes, that’s exactly what I’ve heard about the books and that is exactly what I want in a series. I think you’re right on the money on the direction the show went and it’s so unfortunate. But I suppose it’s more of a reason to check out the books in a sort of “what could’ve been” reason, if that even makes sense. lol

I’ve added the books to my list, so whenever I do start reading them, you’ll be the first to know. :*

Almost a year later, thank you Pele. I hope you’ve been well.

yep. Life's been busy lately.
And given that OMF is not too active, I don't check as often as before...

Oh, that, I didn't doubt. But being alive doesn't mean you're ok...

Been without my laptop for nearly a year due to situations and I'm too lazy/unskilled to type fast enough on smartphone so...but it's much better now, although work takes a good chunk of the day so I can't post as frequently but I'm still around. Might never leave, in fact. This place too special, haha.

I'm catching up with Jojolion (chapter 44) btw. The weirdness is as great as ever. And Stand battles are ever confusing LOL

Yeah, I've also had much less time since I finished Uni. Nice to hear that you're still regularly around.

Tbh, I'm not up to date with Jojolion either at the moment, I've found that it's better in bulk. Time to catch up now, I guess ^^

The abilities are original as ever but sometimes it feels like he's dragging the fights too long. Jojolion is already 23 volumes, just one more and it will be as long as Steel Ball Run yet takes nearly a decade to reach this point. I think he should wrap it up fast and just do part 9 and end this series on high note. Number 9 is special and I want another female Jojo plus there needs to be some sort of story that can connect the two timelines or something that screams grand ending. Jojolion does not look like one for now.
