Very cool series
The art is very unique and part two is a big improvement in storytelling over part one

Bigger than expected and printed in the original Japanese format
After loving the Anime for a couple years I decided to buy the first volume of my favorite JoJo and it did not disappoint. The manga is bigger than other manga such as Attack on Titan and Naruto I have by about 75 percent. Since it is printed in the right to left Japanese format it can be a bit jarring to read if no accustomed to that way of reading. But after a couple minutes it’s very easy and straightforward. The art is beautiful and has the charm of older manga. There are a few colored pages that pop out and add a little bit of spice to an already uniquely drawn story. It’s a great manga and an amazing source material for an even better anime.

Beautiful Book, Beautiful Story, Beautiful Everything Else
Battle Tendency is one of my favorite arcs of Jojo, and Joseph will forever live in my heart as the gigantic dork he ultimately is. This version of the manga does the series absolute justice-- Everything from the beautiful design and art, to the interviews with Araki at the end, and (of course) the story itself. The moment this book plopped into my hands, I swear I had to do a double-take at how glorious it looked and felt. The only thing I really have to complain about is a few little knicks in the cover... Which I don't even really want to call knicks, because they're so small! But other than that, this is a fantastic production that does this series and it's illustrious legacy right in every single way. I'll definitely be getting the second and third editions!

Battle Tendency is great and will not dissapoint
Part 2 -Battle Tendency- of JoJo's Bizzare Adventure follows young Joseph Joestar on his adventure to defeat the Pillar Men who are trying to become the ultimate life form. Volume 1 at the beginning takes place in America where Joseph meets Smokey Brown and become close friends. Soon enough he meets Straizo who uses the strange Stone Masks from Part 1 to become a vampire. He defeats him and finds out that Sweedwagon his uncle had gone missing and made his way to Mexico to save him. In Mexico he meets German (N*zi) soldiers who have Sweedwagon under their care to find out about the mysterious Pillar man where they found him. They awaken Santana/Santavieto and with this we see that Joseph had interested Hamon (something that first appears in Part 1). Joseph with the help of Rudol von Stroheim defeat Santana putting him in a long sleep that turns him back into stone. By the end of the first volume Sweedwagon takes Joseph to Italy where he will learn more about Hamon and train to strengthen himself and control his abilities.

amazing story line
A friend recommend this and I’m hooked on the series! I have hardcovers and digital copies of the first season to the third! I can’t stop reading and enjoying the artwork!

You’re next line is going to be...
Joseph Joestar has a lot of Bizarre adventures, and it’s only the first volume! He may look like Jonathan a lot, but the second Jojo has a completely different personality and a knack for using hamon, carrying a lot of grenades and a tommy gun just in case he has to fight vampires and the brains (or lack thereof) to enter secret facilities and confront ancient Aztec gods. An exhilarating and entertaining read. It definitely doesn’t stop rolling until you finish the last chapter.

A Wild and Unforgettable Start to an Epic Adventure JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Part 2 – Battle Tendency, Vol. 1 is an absolute thrill ride from start to finish. While Phantom Blood laid the foundation for the JoJo series, Battle Tendency takes things to a whole new level with a fresh protagonist, faster pacing, and even crazier fights. Joseph Joestar is a breath of fresh air compared to Jonathan—he’s cocky, witty, and unpredictable, which makes him incredibly fun to follow. His quick thinking and unorthodox battle strategies keep every encounter exciting, and his humor adds a lightheartedness that balances the intense action. Right from the start, he proves he’s not just a carbon copy of his noble grandfather; he’s something entirely different. The villains introduced in this volume set up the stakes beautifully, and you can feel that things are about to escalate in a major way. Araki’s artwork has evolved significantly, with more dynamic paneling and expressive character designs that bring the story to life. The mix of historical elements, supernatural abilities, and over-the-top fights makes for a unique blend that only JoJo can deliver. If you’re new to JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, this is the volume where the series really starts to embrace its signature wildness. And if you’ve already read Phantom Blood, get ready—because Battle Tendency is where things get even crazier. Highly recommended for fans of action, strategy-driven battles, and characters with larger-than-life personalities!

Impresionante como todos los demás, con paginas a color tal y como aparecieron en su primera publicación y con un tamaño que hará las delicias de todos los fans de jojo. Esta versión de jojo's bizarre adventure está basada en jojonium y la publicación es casi idéntica a la japonesa, por lo que se espera que saquen la parte 3 stardust crusaders completa y ahí paren, la parte 4 no está en versión jojonium y por lo tanto no creo que vizmedia se la invente. Compra obligada para fans!
