How did the anime help if it sucked...? Sounds kinda weird. All I know now is that TG is pretty dang popular now, haha.

I forget Jojo is something that's been around for a long time, and I recognize it's something that is pretty dang popular and iconic. Though I still think the people living in his hometown still wear that fact with pride, haha.

Well, think of it this way. If you watch something and like it, but you find out it was very incomplete and nothing like the creator intended for it to be, then wouldn't that make you curious to check out the source material? At least that happens to me a lot xD. I watch something and like it, but then I find out that it's incomplete and decide to just read the manga to finish/continue the story. Thing is, the anime is bad, but for somebody that knows nothing about the manga, they might find it enjoyable. I don't know if I explained it well or if you understood. Maybe it's just my way of thinking xD

No, I completely get what you mean, and that makes sense. Especially with manga that are very long, some anime can only show a little bit of the manga into the anime. So if you are introduced to something from the anime, chances are you may be missing extra story not shown in it. If I liked the anime, I think I would be curious about manga version as well. I guess it could work the other way around. I've wanted to watch the anime version of some manga I read, thought I haven't gotten around that, haha...
