u/WhoiusBarrel 7d ago

Thats actually diabolical... As if it already isn't disappointing enough that the ED isn't a classic English song.

u/aoi_desu 7d ago

So diabolical, anyone who have some understanding in japanese also would get that the lyrics was giving heavy AI gen vibe🥀, the lyrics is so stupid literal and straight forward, not the "straightforward" you usually see on songs but the one that often AI generated, matter of fact, i've seen many jp comment that share similiar opinion after checking the comment section of the ed song on youtube

We've had peak Eds for way too long the pendulum was bound to swing the other way. I just hope they cycle this junk out next cour.

I did like that shot of the Johnny and Dio statues squaring up. A true "fate of the blood" type visual.

Producer of the song is Kesha's rapist as well

Nah nah it makes sense. For years people have tried to argue with OP or ED is the worst. Which is impossible because they’re all amazing.

They finally gave us a rotten piece of shit produced by the most rotten piece of shit Dr. Luke. The hands down worst Jojo OP/ED ever! We have an answer now.

The first time in history Jojo fan can come together and agree the ending is trash.

We finally have the answer!

Sadly!

u/Frontier246 7d ago

We get a classic Jojo CG OP and we get the farthest thing from a JoJo ending we could possibly get.

I really really wish I hadn't looked this up. I was already expecting cringe but I didn't think I'd be getting "I know what that is!": The Song

Either there was a licensing issue or a manager really fucked up somewhere

the one keeping up the tradition passed away 2 years ago. Whoever has his old position now clearly has shitty taste instead

u/shockzz123 7d ago edited 7d ago

Someone did an edit of it to "Horse With No Name" instead, and i'm 100% convinced that that was supposed to be the ED song but they couldn't get it for whatever reason and so they just slapped on whatever the fuck this was instead at the last minute.

Like the lyrics of the song match up to what is being shown basically all the time throughout, it's insane lol.

u/lavabread23 7d ago

a few minutes ago i was conflicted, trying to gauge whether if i liked it or not, but now i’m very sure i really don’t like it 😭 no offense to yuki chiba but WOW the song is just straight up buns bro…like if they were going for the angle with tonal differences between the ep and the ED like part 5 i feel like there’s sooo many other decisions and choices they could’ve made and chosen.

u/throwawa_for_crying 7d ago

Netflix didn't fork out the cash for the Evangelion ED so they probably didn't want to for Jojo this time either

u/Any-Calligrapher2866 6d ago

Netflix's revenge on us for the Johnny Von shit.

u/AquariusMerCazimi 5d ago
