JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (Arcade)/Unfinished Animation Frames

This is a sub-page of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (Arcade).

To do: There's likely more to unfinished frames to be found.

Playable Characters

Avdol

Avdol falling on the ground and getting up. The first two frames have an onomatopoeia that says "Shindo" (しんどう) that translates to "vibration" or "rumbling".

14 uncolored frames of Avdol doing a circular motion with his hands. May have been intended for a super animation, possibly something like Iced's Madness Sorrow super since they have a similar animation.

Some crudely-drawn text reading "Kurae! Reddo Baindo!" (くらえッレッドバイーンド!!) It translates to "Take this! Red Bind!" Red Bind is the name of Avdol's grab, and this was likely supposed to be used with it.

Black Polnareff

A set of crudely-drawn unfinished frames that seem to be for an earlier version of Black Polnareff's Double Sword Mastery special move.

And one more frame that's very corrupted. This is most likely an uncleaned scan from concept art of the game, as shown below.

Chaka

Unfinished frames of Chaka blocking high, low, and while crouching.

An unfinished set of frames of Chaka doing one of his Stand ON attacks.

Hol Horse

Some unfinished Hol frames. Not quite sure what he's doing.

Jotaro

Jotaro has a staggering amount of unfinished animation frames! This set of frames below is most likely for a jumping animation.

Jotaro doing some kind of turn. May have been a blocking animation while his stand is out.

Some Jotaro frames where he's all yellow for some reason. A couple of them seem to be based off of the unused "turn" sprite above.

Star Platinum has plenty of unfinished frames to call his own, too. Here's some where he's orange and red for some reason:

Some kind of hurt animation for Star Platinum. Likely intended for if you stand crush (deplete the opponent's stand gauge while they're blocking) Jotaro.

Another hurt animation similar to the one above.

An unfinished version of Jotaro's Stand ON close heavy punch.

Here's an interesting one: There are a set of unfinished frames that seem to show a kind of anti-air punch for Jotaro's Stand ON. No move like it exists in the final game.

Another interesting case. This looks like an alternate version of Jotaro's Stand ON crouching attacks.

Some smear frames likely for Star Platinum doing a punch, evidently unused by the fact that a couple of the frames have the bright green that covers a lot of Star Platinum's unfinished sprites.

Khan

An unfinished version of Khan's spinning attack.

Petshop

An unfinished handful of frames for one of Petshop's command normals. They're right next to the finished version of the animation in the object viewer.

A non-transparent, singular frame of Horus.

Polnareff

Two unfinished hurt frames for Polnareff.

2 unfinished frames showing Silver Chariot with its armor off attacking.

A set of frames that seem to be Silver Chariot attacking low. It strikes a resemblance to Black Polnareff's crouching jab, but the frames appear to be unfinished.

Some unfinished frames that look somewhat like a blocking animation for Silver Chariot.

JoJo (Young Joseph)

A handful of frames presumably leftover from JoJo's Venture, judging from them using the Venture design for Young Joseph. They don't seem to conform to the new palette completely.
