JoJo’s OST Leicht Verwendbar YouTube Playlist Now Open

There she is. I was starting to wonder, but then I remembered that no one person has been uploading the playlists for the OSTs and I just had to go look for it. This is the full playlist of Leicht Verwendbar. Everyone who’s found this place looking for “Il mare eterno nella mia anima ~Lunetta~” can finally listen to it. It’s quite nice, but me, I gotta listen to “Awake” for the next nine forever. All further posts will be written while doing ridiculous poses. Not that I didn’t do that anyway, just more so now.

The JoJo’s Blu-ray Vol. 4 Extraaaaaaavaganza!

Posted in JoJo's Year, Text Articles with tags , , , , , , , , on 2013/04/26 by OnePixelJumpMan

Everyone’s up in the spirit of JoJo’s now that the Vol. 4 blu-rays are out.

And look at that beautiful art. You should be excited.

Yes, this box set is a bigger deal than I originally thought. On top of that it comes with Leicht Verwendbar, it also comes with a ticket enclosed for the big JoJo’s event on July 23rd. That event will be attended by Okitsu, Ueda, Kawasumi, Sugita, Sato, and Tominaga. For those of you who will be in Japan in that area, you can read more about where it’s going to be held here.

Also, it was a launch event. There were lots of people there, and Takuya Sato wrote about it on his blog. He got to meet Araki and take this cool picture with his fictional grandfather, Yoku Shioya.

He talked about having fun and how the role of Caeser has been a high point of his career.

So it’s been a pretty fun showing. The JoJo spirit is getting whipped up strong with this release. I don’t imagine we’ll see this for the next few releases. Maybe for the last one. Hopefully for All Star Battle. Definitely for that event in July. I hope that spirit never falters.

Edit: Razakin down in the comments shared something that came with his copy from CD Japan.

It was taken with a camera phone, so please excuse the slightly washed look. I wonder what these are. They look like bookmarks, and one of the distributors was offering bookmarks with these characters as their unique bonus, but those are different in shape and display. It’s cool all the same. Did anyone else get a unique prize?

No JoJo, No Life. Volume 4 Blu-rays with Leicht Verwendbar Launch Today!

Posted in JoJo's Year, Text Articles with tags , , , , , on 2013/04/25 by OnePixelJumpMan

Just to remind everyone, the Vol. 4 Blu-rays enclosed with Leicht Verwendbar launches in a few hours. Tower Records in Shibuya and the anime twitter have already gotten into the mood with that big ass poster set around their entry gate. It’s not really the same as the Santana statue from last time, but this is a big deal event for them to be using that space for the posters.

Anyway, for those of us not really in a position to attend the launch, the Blu-ray and the DVD do come packaged in with the new OST. That means that if you’d like to own it directly, you can go ahead and order it from Amazon JP, who have the cover and disc art that you can see unlike the anime website. If not, the YouTube playlist should be up pretty soon. I’m not sure how fast after [Musik] came out that the YouTube playlist did, but it shouldn’t be too long.

JoJo’s Blu-Ray Vol. 4 Box and Disc Art and Leicht Verwendbar Disc Art

Posted in JoJo's Year, Text Articles with tags , , , , , , , , , , on 2013/04/04 by OnePixelJumpMan

The official anime site, at time of writing, still has the image for the Vol. 4 blu-rays listed as the “NOW PRINTING” gray block. It’s ok, though. The guys over at SRWZ have us covered.

Well, mostly. I’m not sure what it is that will be in that “Event Now Printing” gray paper flap, but the discs and box art are all there. Seeing Joseph with the tommy gun is always satisfying, and it’s nice to see Speedwagon. Most interestingly, though, is the second disc there which should be the CD for Battle Tendency OST Leicht Verwendbar. The art looks like Cars, ACDC, and Wham posing with the Red Stone of Aja, which makes sense considering that “Awaken” seems to be the most sought after track on that disc.

A closer look at all the cover art. Like always, I believe the full color is blu-ray and the halftone style is standard DVD. I like the halftone for Joseph a lot because it’s easier to see the tommy gun. It also helps that halftones make a lot of sense as a style choice because of the whole 1930s New York thing. I could totally see that picture of Joseph under a headline of “Man Guns Down Streetside Bar in Tragic Vampire Attack.”

JoJo Blu-ray 4 and it’s Amazing Second Tracklisting for [Leicht Verwendbar]

Posted in JoJo's Year, Text Articles with tags , , , , , , , , on 2013/03/21 by OnePixelJumpMan

That’s not the album art. That’s actually something pertaining to the Vol. 3 Blu-rays, but there isn’t any album art or the Vol 4. Blu-ray materials on the page for it.

The official page for the Vol. 4 Blu-rays is up, kinda. Certainly, we’ve got more changes and improvements to look forward to in the near future, but what about any other special bonuses? Well, alongside [Musik], there will be another Battle Tendency OST released as a bonus with the Vol. 4 blu-rays. The JoJo’s Anime site has put out both a tracklist and a few preview tracks. Here are the tracks from OST Battle Tendency [Leicht Verwendbar]:

1. Old Town
2. Bolt *
3. Quirk
4. Tense
5. Maze
6. Bargain
7. Skew
8. Pulse
9. Backfoot
10. Hike
11. Constrain
12. Abyss
13. Gambit
14. Il mare eterno nella mia anima ~Lunetta~
15. Master ~acostic~
16. Hellcrimb
17. Master
18. Ancientry
19. Chaos
20. Fend Off
21. Demon
22. Develop
23. Awake*
24. Mystic
25. Appearance*
26. Affection

* Preview clip available

Again, I don’t really know what most of these titles associate to other than “Il mare eterno nella mia anima ~Lunetta~” and what I can gather from the preview clips. “Awake” is the track that usually plays when one of the Pillar Men does something devious or cool in a fight. “Bolt” I think is either the music that played when it was showing downtown New York or when Joseph was biking through the desert. “Appearance” I’m not sure what is at all. It sounds like music that would play when Joseph is turning around a desperate situation with a cunning plan. Not exactly specific, is it?

This whole package will drop on April 26. Make sure and keep an eye out for it.
