Choosing a song from the band in which one of the vocalists is literally called by JoJo name.

DP, try to make your jokes thinner next time!

I can't believe this is real. I guess it's less inappropriate if you don't understand English.

I was hoping for oldschool R&B but I admit, this was a surprise.

I am so disappointed that gangster paradise isn’t chosen for the ending, perhaps copyright issues?


Although English isn’t my native language, but did the ending just say “I wake up feelin’ so HORNY”?! Oh my....it strangely fits Part 5’s outlandish and over-the-top tone somehow Cool

“Every time I close my eyes
I wake up feeling so horny
I can't get you outta my mind
Sexin' you be all I see“
Imma keep it real with you 57th prime minister of Japan Shinzo Abe.

Joking aside this was a really unexpected choice, but I’ll get used to it lol

I grew up listening to this song (my mom would play all the 90s R&B classics)! As a black person who has grown up with listening to this kind of R&B and watching anime, words can't describe how happy that my panties will get wet after every episode since this song and the gang are just sexy af.

Reporting after the fact is hardly news but whatever. Great choice and i am pretty sure that its a then contemporary favorite of Araki, as the song came out the same year part 5 debut. The END visuals are less than impressive though.

Part 5 now confirmed as the most sexual part thanks to this song.

Should have went with the remix with Wu-Tang but whatever.

Imagine if they went with the "Come And Talk To Me" remix by the same group and the response to the full version by those who never heard it before. Laughing

IIRC each of the ED songs have been ones that Araki listened to while he was working on the part in question, so that fits.
