    Sometimes, one of the hardest things about great media and content is seeing the mediocre reaction and response among the mainstream, which is way behind it at the time. I watched all of Twin Peaks over the last few months for the first time and it felt 100% fresh, relevant and original today. When I watch the broadcast news and hullabaloo about it at the time, it couldn't be more different - so painfully early-mid 90s! so dated! It reminds me that this is how it's always been, and it's okay - Twin Peaks survived. So will the great content of today and the future.

    • @imfsresidentotaku9699
      @imfsresidentotaku9699 Před 9 měsíci +3

      There’s no such thing as “painfully early-mid 90’s!” Considering that Twin Peaks aired in the early 90’s, this is a silly criticism, so you can’t reasonably blame “the mediocre reaction and response among the mainstream” on the decade, as if its mentality is inherently backwards. Calling something “so dated” is a purely superficial and detracting way of pointing out how it represents the era it was made in, a factor that should never be considered an imperfection, so no, this is not “how it’s always been.” There’s plenty of great media that was praised at the time of its initial release and that the mainstream wasn’t “way behind,” so it’s not “one of the hardest things about great media.”

      Araki was definitely inspired by his real life hometown in the creation of Morioh, as well as the concept of slice of life, the mystery genre, and serial killers, but also very probably, by the structure of Twin Peaks when creating DIU: A small established town relatively unperturbed until one day, a murder(s) gain attention and give light to a horrifying threat, an ominous looming force that has long cursed a calm and friendly place which weighs down upon it with such burden and terror, and gives way to the mystery, surrealism, and even the supernatural inherent to an otherwise mundane locality. I adore Twin Peaks and Jojo, and I highly doubt Araki outright ripped off Lynch and Frost's Magnum Opus; but it's more like very a clever use of nuanced inspiration in how DIU executes the melding of genres in quirky and terrific way all the while remaining original. This is part of why DIU is my personal favorite installment of JJBA and part of why I consider it a masterpiece of manga, anime, and even in a general sense; Steel Ball Run of course (Part 7) is Araki's Magnum Opus, and is honestly top 5 manga of all time imo💯
