jojolion

[bold garden]

Uh it’s just random stuff

That’s happening

I believe

[queen crow]

asgjshoahokd

ok okko

[winter adder]

I think we're building up to what's supposed to be the climax

[bold garden]

I hope

[main lark]

did he just fucking kill tsurugi

i mean we wont know but like

[bold garden]

It’s so FeelsBadMan

[winter adder]

Jobin will Rokakaka himself and a new being will be born again

This time they'll take another random character's name from the original series

[bold garden]

Inb4 Kars name

[winter adder]

Godamnit

[royal ermine]

@bold garden

[bold garden]

Fuck me

Jeez man

I hate it when I miss cool shit like this

[bold garden]

I guess it’s because I never inspected the boi

[royal ermine]

Rude

[bold garden]

FeelsBadMan

[royal ermine]

Yasuho pointed it out

[bold garden]

Shit

[royal ermine]

That his eyes were like that

Reading comprehension lol

[bold garden]

That was the first chapter right

I haven’t read this since yesterday

But I haven’t read in a while besides yesterday’s chapter

[royal ermine]

No it wasn't the first chapter

She pointed out the eyes thing much later

[bold garden]

Oh ok

[acoustic ocean]

I am on ch 18 i think and Nijimura pointed that Gappy has different eyeballs and tounge

[bold garden]

Ok thanks

[winter adder]

Araki forgets Gappy's split eyes just as much as he does with DIO'S neck scar, it's not even on his Jojonium cover for Stardust Crusaders >:0

[acoustic ocean]

Jojolion is damn interesting

But i wonder in the end will person who fused with Yoshikage Kira be any related to JoJo or Joestars or Higashikatas

20th ch rn 50 left

[winter adder]

You know that's a really good question

[acoustic ocean]

Is it answered in the manga by so far?

[bold garden]

Yes

[acoustic ocean]

Till 70th chapter?

[bold garden]

It tells who and who fused together

[acoustic ocean]

Who and who 🤔

[bold garden]

I’d say 60-70

I’d rather not spoil

[acoustic ocean]

So it is not who and Yoshikage Kira 🤔

Don't i'll find out myself i guess

[bold garden]

Good

[acoustic ocean]

It will take some time but i'll get there soon

[bold garden]

Soon tm

[acoustic ocean]

I like Yasuho

She looks amazing

[bold garden]

I forgot who that is

[acoustic ocean]

Wait if you forget who she is don't tell me she deas or something

[bold garden]

Ok I was thinking her but didn’t wanna get it wrong

Also she isn’t dead

[acoustic ocean]

Uh what a relief

[bold garden]

I just forgot her temporarily

[acoustic ocean]

I heard there's koichis counterpart in jojolion

What that is?

[white beacon]

Isn't koichi's counterpart yasuho?

[acoustic ocean]

Nijimura is cp to nijimura brothers right?i don't know about these counterparts and these stuff

Oh

[white beacon]

Cuz them both hirose

[acoustic ocean]

Omg i just noticed that

How am i blind all these chapters

Damn

Rohan has no cp?

[white beacon]

Im not sure who rohan's cp is, I don't think he/she's been shown yet

[acoustic ocean]

Probably

I've just read a chapter about Johhnys death

Damn it was so sad

He saved both his son and his wife

[bold garden]

Yeah

[acoustic ocean]

I wonder what happend to the body tough

[royal ermine]

Snake wtf Yasuho is pretty much the main character besides Gappy

[bold garden]

LOOK

I FORGOT

[royal ermine]

Also Kyo Nijimura is kinda a Jotaro counterpart

HOW DO YOU FORGET A MAIN CHARACTER SNEK

[bold garden]

bad memory

even though I read the new chapter 2 days ago

[royal ermine]

I'm judging rn

I love Yasuho

[bold garden]

FeelsBadMan

She’s great

I like her

[royal ermine]

She's awesome and relatable and I hope she gets to be with Gappy in the end

[bold garden]

Yeah

[brazen dagger]

So how long till my next chapter 2-3 months

[ivory pollen]

Hmm

will part 9 be new universe joseph?

Or maybe

Original universe joseph is still ali...

We have two josephs, don't we.

[bold garden]

What part are ya on rn, or are you just wondering like a what if situation

[ivory pollen]

Yeah...

What if we have two josephs?

That would be amazing

Part 9: Jojojojo's bizarre adventure: Two fucking joseph joestars

[bold garden]

Fans would cream themselves

[ivory pollen]

Call araki

[vast minnow]

@bold garden are ya available?

[bold garden]

Yes

[royal ermine]

Scafe would cry if there were two Josephs

[bold garden]

He would

[royal ermine]

Can't one of the Josephs be a Caesar instead so my boys could have a reunion

[bold garden]

Mfw valentine could find the time where Cesar survived

: v

[royal ermine]

Hoooooooo bring back Mr. Funny so he can bring back bubble boi

[acoustic ocean]

I didn't rly gey the part when johnny died

How was boulder on his head

[wanton flare]

the collective stand of the forest has that one ability to teleport stuff

[acoustic ocean]

Was that rock from yhe sickeness

[wanton flare]

i'm assuming it teleported him under the rock/the rock into him

or it could've been from the rock disease

[acoustic ocean]

Why would it teleport it without a reason

[wanton flare]

isn't the stand independent?

i don't think it needs a reason

[acoustic ocean]

Well

I still am said bcs he died that way

If he had died naturally i would be ok

I am closing up to part whwre there are no colored chapters😭

[wanton flare]

i actually prefer black and white

oddly enough

[acoustic ocean]

I will probably get used to it since i'll be reading 40 black and white chpters

[royal ermine]

I like the color but it doesn't matter to me all that much

I've been reading mostly bw manga anyway

[bold garden]

^

[wanton flare]

with jojolion i feel it works better in b/w

[acoustic ocean]

I am confused sometimes when something is drawn bad

[wanton flare]

the other jojo parts are better with colour though

[acoustic ocean]

So i don't know what there is

[pliant laurel]

rip Johnny

[acoustic ocean]

Is it a plane a box Gappy or what

Dunni but idk if it's he case with Jojolion

Maybe araki has good BW style

Ok that sounds bad

[pliant laurel]

lold

[acoustic ocean]

It would be better to say maybe it would be good even with black and white because Araki does not draw bad

[pliant laurel]

he goes for more whites in jjl, so its easier to comprehend

[acoustic ocean]

Well we'll see

[acoustic ocean]

Reading last colored chapter of jojolion so far 😭 it's King Nothing

[bold garden]

Rip

[acoustic ocean]

Is King Nothing that architects stand?

[bold garden]

How far are ya in it

The battle

[acoustic ocean]

Haven't started it yet

Dunno what battle

I am on chapter 30 where Tsuragi(Tsugiri? Dunno) told Norisuke IV about architect

Ima read it and find out anyways so 🙃

[bold garden]

Yea

[acoustic ocean]

Oh it's Norisukes stand

[dusk stone]

That one part in Paisley Park and Born This Way where Joskue nearly cries about how nobody is looking for him caught me in the feels

[royal ermine]

Protecc Gappy

[brazen dagger]

^

[bitter delta]

Part 9 : Dio will be revived, finding out about Jotaro's death and the other Joestars downfall, Dio will conquer The World and rule it, but something else is stopping him, the Joestar bloodline from both the past and from other universes, all caused by Enrico Pucci's universal reset (there was a glitch through timespace) And now, Dio being defeated will bring back everyone to the present (also on the other universes) where everything was back to normal and the current Jotaro we have (in part 6) is still alive

I might not be making sense but this just came into my mind

And I thought I should share it to people

[bold garden]

Isn’t this just EOH

[toxic belfry]

no thats what this place is for to share your opinions and ideas

[bold garden]

But anyway it’s still a good idea

[bitter delta]

I wish that was to happen, really interesting

Also, since I'll be sleeping, please tag me and tell me what you think about it

[kind owl]

@bitter delta, you just advanced to level 2 !

[toxic belfry]

sure

[winter adder]

Part Nine: Whatever Jotaro is in the Wonderful World comes to my house and gives me a big kiss !

[acoustic ocean]

Lol

Is it possible to have Giorno in P9, well his counterpart ?

Dunno if Diego had any sons

[white beacon]

maybe diego's distant cousin's son's son

[acoustic ocean]

Ye

🤔

Anyways

I see Gappy's eyes

They are same as Johhnys

Intend to kill

There is Kira in him

[winter adder]

🔥 🔥

[acoustic ocean]

But what i wonder the most is if that other person he like fused with is Joestar or Higashikata or what 😕

[winter adder]

I never saw Reboot Kira as a killer D:

[white beacon]

you mean his eyes also burn, metaphorically and literally?

[acoustic ocean]

Ye they burn

[white beacon]

you mean josefumi?

[winter adder]

ABUPUPUP

A

[acoustic ocean]

Oh

Ohhhhhhhhhh

Oh

[winter adder]

😠

[acoustic ocean]

I thought Josefumi is a sepereate character

[winter adder]

He is

My personal favorite boy...

[acoustic ocean]

But hey it's half of Gappy it see- wait why am i confused even more

[winter adder]

You’ll find out soon :0

[acoustic ocean]

Okay

I will

But i have a thought that other gappy is actually alive somehow

[white beacon]

it gets even more confusing

[acoustic ocean]

Well it is more of a Kira

But i won't go any deeper i'll just read it

Though now when there's no JJCA scans chapters are literally 45 pages

But it is read fastly

[royal ermine]

Honestly, you should just read it and then come to ask about things because this way we don't know whether you didn't understand it or if you just haven't read the chapter where those things are explained

Also, who is the "other" Gappy? There's only one Gappy

[winter adder]

Well there’s that one cover featuring two of them

: D

[royal ermine]

I don't think that's what he was talking about lol

[white beacon]

it's something, i guess

[winter adder]

I mean there’s nothing to suggest that there aren’t two Gappys that switch out in a similar manner to Funny Valentine

[candid obsidian]

Squishy and Moist

[thorn wedge]

what the fuck

also there's nothing to suggest that there ARE two gappies

that's just a cover illustration lol

[candid obsidian]

Another name for Soft and Wet would be Squishy and Moist

[thorn wedge]

no

[full kestrel]

yes

[acoustic ocean]

True i should read and then discuss

But i'm too hyped for jojolion

What i was thinking is if a one person lrt's call him john and other peter would to fuse there would be half John half peter I and Half Peter Half John

Ans that was Gappy and Kira

So i thought it may have some connection to occasional plot twist but nvm

[pliant laurel]

gee Part 8, how come Araki lets you have two Josuke's

three if you wanna include the dog

https://i.imgur.com/AcKyBND.jpg theres some nice doremi info this issue

[wet escarp]

Supple and soaked

[winter adder]

Me when I see physical copies of Chapter 73

[pliant laurel]

dunno why they keep packing this weird shojo manga with it

[white beacon]

wait

which shoujo manga is it

[pliant laurel]

well its less a single manga, and more a compilation of random mangas

[white beacon]

oh, so something like an anthology?

[pliant laurel]

yeah something like that

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DRFAMwKU8AEI89z.jpg

comes with a nice collection of rohan stories tho

[white beacon]

damn, can't read moonrunes

what's the title of that shoujo book? are you even sure that's shoujo?

[pliant laurel]

i just used shojo as a general term for a book full of girls doing girl things. its prob just seinen

https://comic.pixiv.net/works/4294

ye this seems more on the ecchi side lol

[white beacon]

yeah, i was gonna ask if it was really shoujo or if it was josei, cuz it's paired with jojolion

oh, it's new? nevermind, probs not even translated yet

[royal ermine]

Shoujo is for teen girls
Josei is for adult women
Seinen is for adult men

[acoustic ocean]

In what terms "for adult women/men" ?

[white beacon]

Mature stuff, like sensitive topics such as disabilities, affairs and marital problems, those kinda stuff

Most of the stuff in the genre tackle real life problems and are realistic

[acoustic ocean]

Ah i see

[void citrus]

EDSFERSWF MY FRIEND WHO HASN'T READ PAST PART 5 YET THINKS GOOGLE SPOILED OKUYASU COMING BACK FOR HER

[royal ermine]

She thinks she's been spoiled but she hasn't but telling her that would actually mean spoiling her

[void citrus]

dfsdefesw I'm just going to leave it

she will find out in time

[royal ermine]

She has a long way to go, she'll probably forget about this before she gets to JJL

[bold garden]

^

[void citrus]

Yeah you're probably right

[royal ermine]

[winter adder]

It’s Okuyasu It’s him

[thorn wedge]

what

[royal ermine]

Josefumi has nothing in common with Okuyasu except for a pomp but Oku's was smaller

[thorn wedge]

i mean

his design is clearly meant to evoke josuke's

[royal ermine]

^

[thorn wedge]

http://i.imgur.com/w4izL2X.jpg

this is a jojolion-era drawing of josuke

[winter adder]

There’s another image featuring both Josukes and his hair doesn’t seemed to be as shaved

[thorn wedge]

i remember one from the 25th aniversary

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/jjba/images/d/da/Jojo_exhibition.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20120706224043

there's also 4th another day, published in 2007

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/jjba/images/8/88/TheBook_311.png/revision/latest?cb=20121214085557

https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/jjba/images/2/22/TheBook_199.png/revision/latest?cb=20121214085507

point being, after josefumi became a thing, he started drawing part 4 josuke that way

[royal ermine]

Even if he hadn't, Josefumi and Okuyasu still look nothing alike nor do they share similar personalities.
But they're both good boys.

[winter adder]

Their hair is vaguely similar : D

[thorn wedge]

hahahahahhah

look at this happy boy

[royal ermine]

vaguely lol

[acoustic ocean]

I've lost motivation to read jojolion when it turned black and white 😐

I am stuck on chapter 32 forever i guess

[winter adder]

Don’t worry, new Colored chapters are released weekly!

[acoustic ocean]

That's nice

Though i don't wanna wait

So i'll just read it anyways

[winter adder]

That’s unfortunately the system many of us go through, myself being one of them u_u

You get used to it eventually :’D

[acoustic ocean]

Hope so

[bold garden]

oh god yes

[winter adder]

What doesn’t make sense to me is that

There are Jojolion commercials advertising colored pages up to

Every Day is a Summer Day or whatever it’s called

Yet, last time I checked, Jojo’s Colored Adventure was only up to Shakedown Road

[royal ermine]

Guys, JJCA is a fan project. The original manga is black & white, you're being spoiled.

[lone robin]

also iirc colored scans are on hiatus until january or something

just read the b&w scans and reread them when the colored ones are out

[primal grove]

Jojo's Colored Teeam isn't responsible for coloring the manga

they just work with translations and the text itself

all the coloring is "official"

the mango in the "book" format is B&W, the digital distrubution is colored

pic related for example

[royal ermine]

Yeah, what I meant is that they're the ones doing something extra. Translating stuff for free in their free time

They don't have to translate and all that. So bless them and all the other scan/trans groups out there

[primal grove]

very very true

hell, we have some novels that came out quite some time ago but were never translated

if only some of those group got their hands on it, but it's a totally different beast

[winter adder]

You’re right, I was being unfair and spoiled is the right word

[royal ermine]

People tend to forget the hard work these guys put into it, you wouldn't be the first, it's okay

[minor ore]

4 testes

[pastel ingot]

Can someone explain to me who the badguy is for this part???

[bold garden]

I don’t think there is one yet

[pastel ingot]

Oh well

I still like Joshu

because he is a mistake

[thorn wedge]

i think that's the point

there's no bad guy

[bold garden]

I guess it’s like part 4

[thorn wedge]

naw bruv

it wouldnt work if jojolion just had a villain come out of nowhere

[pastel ingot]

I think Araki doesn't wanna fall down the End of Jojolion path

you know

end of evangelion

you can just ignore if you want

[thorn wedge]

naw bruv

jojolion doesnt have stakes that high

thank god it doesnt tbh

[pliant laurel]

I can see it having that towards the end

the further down the drug trade and doctor conspiracy they go

[thorn wedge]

i mean

it would also be ok if it was dibo

[pliant laurel]

id be fine with a rando if all these flashbacks led into him nicely

tho he could appear now and still pull off a yoshikage kira

as in, appearing late game

only difference being he'd actually be tied to the plot

[maiden stream]

so what do you guys think theyre gonna do with jousukes no longer bubbles?

did they add the appraisers comment in there just for a more detailed description of jousukes ability or is it foreshadowing

[white beacon]

wait, which chap?

[maiden stream]

umm 71 or 72

are spoilers alright here?

[white beacon]

they're fine, plus, i think it's 71, just checked 72

[maiden stream]

after they kill the doctor with fire

a bubble floats to the appraiser and he notices theyre like

entangled?

what was the word

[winter adder]

Why can rocks be fucking murdered by being set ablaze that’s now how rocks work

Aren’t they rapidly (spinning) strings which give the illusion of a sphere because that makes sense ?

[maiden stream]

STRINGS

jesus

its not my day

[white beacon]

oh, the string stuff

[maiden stream]

yeah

[winter adder]

🤷

[maiden stream]

do you think its foreshadowing or just describing the ability

[white beacon]

i'd like to believe that it's describing the ability, on how they bubbles are formed

it's nothing really that huge but it's something, i guess

[maiden stream]

hmm

its not like he can affect the shape though, right?

[white beacon]

also, think that you have the ends of a string on each of your hands, then you move your hands in a circular motion inward/outward from your body, it kinda makes an illusion of a sphere so think of it like that, i don't have better examples but w/e

as of right now, i don't think he can, since he doesn't even know it yet, josuke i mean

[winter adder]

It’s a little too odd for Rai to just offhandedly mention now though h

[white beacon]

when has anything in jojo not be offhanded

[winter adder]

When Jotaro states that Magician Red’s fire is hot and burning because it’s fire

[white beacon]

well, that being obvious, everyone assumed josuke's bubbles were soap bubbles but rai realized they are high-speed strings, he's making a good observation

[winter adder]

Right

[white beacon]

it also helps justify how sturdy josuke's bubbles are, if they were regular soap bubbles, a bit of wind could either make them pop or just float around uncontrollably, josuke's bubbles seemed a bit more stable

[maiden stream]

but i mean

what can he do

with spinning string

its kind of too early to speculate though

because we dont know if he can control the shape or speed of the rotation (not that it would change anything)

[winter adder]

Theory: Josuke’s actually related to Karera, hence the similar stand abilities

[white beacon]

the spinning string seems to fade very quickly after being popped, so having knowledge of it will have little significance now

[winter adder]

My only hope is that it’s a method to tie Soft and Wet to the Spin somehow ,

[maiden stream]

how do josuke and karera have similar stand abilites? 🤔

[kind owl]

@maiden stream, you just advanced to level 2 !

[white beacon]

doggy style's ability is also string-like but that's kinda off the mark with him and karera

karera is hair manipulation

[winter adder]

Hair’s kind of like strings I guess smkscksk

[white beacon]

i doubt

[acoustic ocean]

I am on ch 35 well progressing and gettin used to b and w

Joubin just came

Thir bugs are fughtin

[maiden stream]

oh that was a fun chapter

[acoustic ocean]

Ye

Dunno if i will be able to finish till new years

Probably

Myb

Depends if i have something to studi next few days

But Friday and Sutarday i think i can easily read 20 chapter

[maiden stream]

trust me if you get hooked on it jojolion is a breeze

[acoustic ocean]

Ye

I got hooked on SBR thought to read 5 ch per day

I got from 30th chapter to 95 in likea week

[maiden stream]

johnny is such a sad character

[acoustic ocean]

Ye

His death was

Damn i felt sad

[maiden stream]

;__;

[acoustic ocean]

Ye

[acoustic ocean]

I wonder

Why is this part named

Jojolion?

[primal grove]

it comes from the word "evangelion"

where it means smh like good news or the words of god

so araki switched it with jojo

"By combining this word with "JoJo", I've meant for the title to signify the existence of the protagonist "Josuke" in this world".

so we got the good words of jojo

[winter adder]

Holy shit

[thorn wedge]

lol

The "lion" in the title"Jojolion" means things like "blessed thing", "evangelistic", and "commemorative seal". It's a word from ancient Greek or something like that. By combining this word with "Jojo", I've meant for the title to signify the existence of the protagonist "Josuke" in this world. It's also used in the name of the tragic king in a Greek myth called "Pygmalion" as well as the Japanese animation "Evangelion", but I'm not sure if it has to do with the same idea.

you know, as pygmalion and galatea?

that story where he builds the statue of a woman

and then aphrodite makes the statue a real woman?

smh

[acoustic ocean]

Wow evangelion

But i don't get how did he want to show us Josuke as protagonist with "jojolion"?

[primal grove]

i think he meant more into the lines of "the gospel of jojo", to give more emphasis on it

[maiden stream]

so, real talk

smartest jojo to date?

[primal grove]

street smarts is joseph most likely

Jotaro did become a doctor with PhD

[maiden stream]

i mean like combat smarts

mb

[primal grove]

combat smarts is def joseph

not even a contest

[maiden stream]

hmm how so?

i mean obviously compared to jonathan and jotaro

[primal grove]

that's his whole stick

the whole fighting against all pillar men boiled down to outsmarting them

compared to stuff like Jotaro where it's straight up beatdown

with an ocasional analysis here and there

[maiden stream]

yeah i guess

later on we see more situational stands

that are (obviously) tailored to the main character

or somebody close to them

but how would other jojos behave instead of lets say josuke

against aqua necklace

for a random example

[primal grove]

i think Giorno is probably the most down to earth with crazy tactics

jolyne is much more akin to jotaro and straight up beatdown or facing it straight heads up

Giorno would be all "i turned the glove into a butterfly, my tongue into a spider, and i caught aqua necklace in my mouth"

Jolyne would just set herself on fire or piss herself to counter Angelo

[maiden stream]

tbh thats kind of the beauty of jojo

the variety

in your own opinion, what do you think is the most situational stand

[primal grove]

of the jojo's or overall?

[maiden stream]

overall

for me i cant decide between survivor, the guards stand from stone ocean or the family attack in sbr

[primal grove]

dunno, survivor is pretty situatinal, but shit like cheap trick and super fly

where would you even use that

unless you can befriend cheap trick

[brazen dagger]

Don't know if I asked before but how long is the part 8 break

[primal grove]

just a month i think

[brazen dagger]

Oh oki

[wet escarp]

Man Araki is a god

Only taking a month off every year

*pillar man

[neat python]

Ultimate lifeform*

[tame tulip]

I predict Yasuho will die

[neat python]

What if it turns out to be tru?

[tame tulip]

She got major backstory one chapter ago, and isn't a battle about to happen, she might die

[kind owl]

@tame tulip, you just advanced to level 1 !

[neat python]

Tru

[tame tulip]

Same thing happened with Kakyoin

[primal grove]

iirc, it's not even every year

some times he didn't take a break exactly, but he wrote the one shots or something like that

like he takes a break of the main series, but is still working on something

[wet escarp]

It's really impressive

[tame tulip]

I mean, it's probably much easier than doing it weekly

[pliant laurel]

takes a month off

[kind owl]

@pliant laurel, you just advanced to level 6 !

[pliant laurel]

writes a 60 page one shot in that time

[white beacon]

That's pretty much more pages than an actual monthly chapter

[pliant laurel]

Araki does not take breaks

[white beacon]

If he takes a break he starts aging

[pliant laurel]

A: Its not really about the lack of ideas, but the scariest thing is the lack of the will to draw. ```

[white beacon]

Too deep

That's why if he isn't working on the manga, he's working on a one-shot, he gotta keep drawing

[pliant laurel]

gotta keep the engine running

[white beacon]

If a moving train stops, it'll take some time for it to go again

[pliant laurel]

A. A lot is important to me... hmm. The most important thing would be my breathing technique, I suppose. (LOL) If my breathing gets bad, my stomach starts to hurt. So every morning, I use a special breathing technique. I store up breath around my ribs. It trains my inner muscles and connects me with the universe. It's pretty deep.```

This guy

[wet escarp]

Hamon is real

[neat python]

Wtf

Hamon IS real

[white beacon]

wait, who said that? araki?

[brazen dagger]

How old is gappy

[thorn wedge]

he's technically like a month old

but he's 19 physically

[brazen dagger]

The more you know

[maiden stream]

why do we call him gappy?

[winter adder]

There is a gap in his teeth and it helps separate him from the other Josuke Higashikata

[maiden stream]

oh

thanks ^^

[sage crest]

wait

[thorn wedge]

wait what gg

wait what

[sage crest]

Norisuke got his hand cut off when melted bt vitamin c

why is it back on in the next chapter

[thorn wedge]

the effect reverted when damo died

[sage crest]

why did Kira lose his liver then

if he got out of range

[thorn wedge]

didnt he lose his liver from the fusion?

[sage crest]

Joshu what the fuck

[sudden holly]

joshu why

[wet escarp]

Joshu did nothing wrong

[void citrus]

His second worst moment

[sudden holly]

....what's the first

[void citrus]

The... thing... that happens in Paper Moon King

[white beacon]

his first worst moment was when he was born

[void citrus]

well

[kind owl]

@void citrus, you just advanced to level 3 !

[void citrus]

you're not wrong

[white beacon]

What was kyo again? Quintillion?

[void citrus]

Ten quadrillion

[acoustic ocean]

Is Karrera or whatever she's called supposed to be a Yukako counterpart?

[maiden stream]

yeah

makes sense

i mean both have hair stands

[acoustic ocean]

I guess she looks damn the same

They look same

[maiden stream]

yukako was into koichi

but karrera is into josuke

🤔

irrelevant but fun to think about

[acoustic ocean]

Myb karrera is into Yasuho secretly

I've got around 30 chapters till i cought up with mangaa

[wicked talon]

Was his worst moment the time when he tried to rape Yasuho

because I agree

[acoustic ocean]

Wasn't Joshuu trying to do that?

Well tehnically

He did not

He thought she is willing to do that bcs of that stand effect and gosh knows what

I mean he sure is an idiot sometimes but we can't blame him for something that might not even happen if it weren't for stand effect

[void citrus]

Yea Josh

his intentions weren't that bad because of Paper Moon King shenanigans

but still 😒

[minor ore]

There's something I don't understand about soft and wet

He takes stuff with his bubbles and can put them somewhere else, sure.

But what aspect of KQ did S&W take?

Since the stands supposedly fused

[void citrus]

Kyo says that Killer Queen could create bubbles that explode

so I guess that's what Soft and Wet got

[thorn wedge]

bruv the way josefumi uses soft and wet is a bit different

you remember when he used it to take the pepper out of soup

but there wasnt any bubbles?

same thing goes for the grafting

actually i remember bubbles during the grafting

[primal grove]

there was a bubble tho

[thorn wedge]

ye

[primal grove]

in the pepper scene

[thorn wedge]

was it?

[primal grove]

yep, you can see the bubbles under his hand

[thorn wedge]

oh shit

then i guess soft and wet has always been the same

[primal grove]

even the wiki has been updated to say "we don't know"

kinda-ish

[thorn wedge]

hahahahahh

[void citrus]

Well the fact that both Stands had an ability that's described as "bubbles"

I would imagine it's something related to that

[primal grove]

and in the flashback, he also uses ubbles against the Apex Twins, prior to the fusing

[kind owl]

@primal grove, you just advanced to level 5 !

[primal grove]

A. Phex Brothers after recognizing the abilities of Soft & Wet to be that of Josefumi's original Stand. It's eventually revealed that Soft & Wet was originally Josefumi's Stand, and after the fusion, may have retained some unknown portion of Kira's abilities.

[thorn wedge]

ye

[thorn wedge]

i mean

recently rai went all

'oh shit his bubbles are actually a spinning thread'

so that might go somewhere

[primal grove]

yeah

[patent root]

JoJolion is good

[void citrus]

It's on its way to becoming my favorite part unless Araki really messes something up

[white beacon]

Mess up? Like what? Having a second Joshu?

[void citrus]

Hrrgh

[kind owl]

@void citrus, you just advanced to level 4 !

[void citrus]

Honestly besides Norisuke, I either hate the Higashikata family or think there's a lot of wasted potential

[white beacon]

There's norisuke who's a good dad, jobin who's an illegal plant dealer, daiya who's slightly blind and clingy, Hato who's hot, Joshu, and their mom who just got out of prison

[void citrus]

WA

WAIT IM SO SORRY

I LOVE JOBIN

SHIT

[white beacon]

Jobin's cool I guess, he has those marks that make him look like he's always cryin

[void citrus]

I really want to see more of Speed King

[lone robin]

from what i remember someone explaining, josefumi's s&w needed him to touch things to use bubbles meanwhile kq is more of a long range stand and didn't need kira to touch anything to turn them into a bomb like in p4, this is shown in the scene where they stole the rokkaka fruit

[pliant laurel]

hard to say since the last seen showed otherwise

regarding s&w i mean

[white beacon]

We really can't say much of original s&w and kq cuz they had so little screentime

[sudden holly]

Joshu makes me want to scream

[royal ermine]

^

[lone robin]

you gotta agree with the man, fish sausages are yum

[pliant laurel]

joshu makes me want to scream in joy

[void citrus]

[wet escarp]

Joshu did nothing wrong

[void citrus]

[acoustic ocean]

What if Joshu is an alternative universe Okuyasu?

Like he is adopted and not Higashikata lol

Or kind of is like Kira but has Okuyasu as his last name and Okuyasu maid new about that and what so not

I mean they are pretty similiar

Okuyasu is just not a bitch like he is but pretty dumb dumb

[royal ermine]

Nah

[maiden stream]

so far the higashikata family has stands with king related names

(except for the daughter)

so i dont think hes an okuyasu

imo the stone monster brothers were okuyasu and his brother?

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[white beacon]

It's not that Hato's stand's name isn't king related, it's that it has the word King in it, Walking Heart, so she's fitting the theme

[royal ermine]

Don't think of everyone as a direct alt of the original universe characters, a lot of them are just inspired or share the names

[acoustic ocean]

I am at the part where hato ( she is the blonde one i higashikata family right?) Brung her boyfriend or whatever

That part when she said " we 've had sex only couple of times " got me

Now should be a part of what happend two years ago at the sea then later about josefumi and kira etc

Should Josefumi bi Jotaros counterpart since they noth share similiar nam efor parents and last name Kujo? And JOsefumi

[royal ermine]

Jotaro doesn't have a direct counterpart, both Kyo and Josefumi fit the bill in different ways

[acoustic ocean]

Well

[white beacon]

it's also implied that kira is jotaro's counterpart but that's only because he follows jotaro's position in the family tree of joestars, which is holly's son or johnny's great-great-grandson, so it's not that much of a connection

as well as considering that kyo is also holly's offspring, it's either kira or her that's joot's counterpart

[acoustic ocean]

I like this pic so much

Little kyo aww

And i like this khm khm reference

[kind owl]

@acoustic ocean, you just advanced to level 15 !

[acoustic ocean]

Thanks bot

[white beacon]

quick question

why does kyo have the letters G and U on her hat and as a pin? do they mean anything?

[thorn wedge]

yes

it stands for "GOING UNDERGROUND"

which is born this way's original name

[white beacon]

Ohhh

i see

So araki did something like that but just scrapped the name

[thorn wedge]

the chapter is still called going underground, i think

[pliant laurel]

nope, chap is born this way

[minor ore]

No chapter 73 this month, right?

[thorn wedge]

ye

no chapter this month

[white beacon]

...wait

no chapter? this month? january? 2018??

[royal ermine]

They're taking a break

[thorn wedge]

ye

they even wrote the classic "please understand"

[white beacon]

hmm, yeah i understand

the weekly ones also take a break somewhere in january

[acoustic ocean]

Wdym weekly ones?

Are those colored ones?

[white beacon]

i mean weekly manga

they take a week off in january

well, some

[acoustic ocean]

Oh oh i get it

[patent root]

NO CHAPTER?
Dang

[void citrus]

😔

[arctic epoch]

What do you think the most dangerous stand is

[dim dragon]

It really depends on what you mean by dangerous because most stands are very powerful

[white beacon]

I'd say Purple Haze is pretty dangerous cuz it's pretty much a bio-weapon

[maiden stream]

depends on the situation imo

[dim dragon]

I guess dangerous would go by how many people it can harm in a certain time period. Purple haze is incredibly broken but only during night time but with that said it can kill a lot of people considering it only takes 30 seconds to kill them. Green day is only a really dangerous stand since it also infects a large amount of people but the effect is longer but it can infect throughout the day. Silver chariot requiem does the same thing as them but switches souls and stuff and if given enough time it can fuck over everyone

[maiden stream]

imo a fully evolved the world?

it was mentioned that tge world would have kept growing if it was given time

although we dont know how far it would go

but if it could stop time for as long as dio wanted it would be the strongest

[primal grove]

well, depends on the context tbh

what does it matter to stop time for as long as you want if the enemy stand can move in stopped time?

like Tusk 4?

[thorn wedge]

What do you think the most dangerous stand is

[primal grove]

but like Giorno said, Purple Haze is one of the most fatal ones, but if you fight during the day it's just another punching ghost

[thorn wedge]

dangerous isnt the same thing as powerful

[primal grove]

Green Day can be completely nullified by simply being above it or in the same level

[thorn wedge]

what about notorious B.I.G.

which still sinks ships to this day

[primal grove]

yeah, it's pretty dangerous and scary, no doubt

[thorn wedge]

it's probably the most dangerous stand in terms of kill counts, insnt it?

[void citrus]

Dangerous is just really vague

[kind owl]

@void citrus, you just advanced to level 5 !

[thorn wedge]

wait wait

can gold experience make viruses?

[primal grove]

no idea, depends on how technical you want to go with the whole "virus and dna" thing and what not

[thorn wedge]

no need to get technical

[void citrus]

Like GER is easily the most powerful but it's not necessarily dangerous

[thorn wedge]

can it create dangerous bacteria?

[primal grove]

i'd say no to either

[thorn wedge]

you know, completely overshadowing purple haze?

[primal grove]

i mean, he can't create it anyway

he can only "change" things

but i don't think he would be able to develop or change something into a virus/bacteria/mold

he had to do the whole snake thing to be able to counter purple haze

[thorn wedge]

hahahahahahah

what life can gold experience create, then?

it can clearly create plants and animals

[primal grove]

like i said

i don't really see him creating things, he changes inorganic things into living ones

[thorn wedge]

i mean

that's not what i mean

smh

[primal grove]

but either way, it usually just small animals and plants

we never see him create anything bigger than the thing that was changed

and he can't "control" what it changes into

[thorn wedge]

it's not limited to small things, really

since he creates those tall ass trees and shit

[primal grove]

i think it's related to the size of things he changes

i guess so

[thorn wedge]

that's not true

he turned a whole bag into just a frog

[primal grove]

kinda related

doesn't mean 1:1

[thorn wedge]

i guess

[primal grove]

and well, he can kinda accelerate the rate of growth of the plants he creates

so you could say he created a small tree/vine and just accelerate it's growth

[thorn wedge]

it's not like all the animals he creates are also infants

[primal grove]

true

i mean, we wouldn't know, but yeah

[thorn wedge]

what if he took a bunch of coffee powder or something

and tried to create bacteria?

[primal grove]

Koichi does see something more related to a tadpole when he sees the frog for the frist time

no idea tbh, according to the wiki, he can't control what it turns into

[thorn wedge]

bullshit

[primal grove]

it could turn into ants like it did during the diavolo fight

[thorn wedge]

he clearly has a degree of control over it

[primal grove]

ah nvm, i missread

it mentions he can't control what it does, but doesn't really say anything about what it turns into

he can turn into X animal, but he doesn't know how X animal will behave

that makes more sense

[thorn wedge]

ye

but bacteria is known to not be especially complicated

[primal grove]

so yeah, maybe he could turn into bacteria/mold or whatever

[thorn wedge]

they try to reproduce and they reproduce by infecting people

MY QUESTION IS

CAN GOLD EXPERIENCE OUTCLASS PURPLE HAZE IN ITS OWN GAME?

[primal grove]

i'd say it can if we assume he can make virus/bacterias

Purple Haze Virus weakness is really, well, weak

and since he already made a "immunity" thing with the snake

i think he can outdo it

mix green day + purple haze and you have an molded virus that can only be defeated by being in a higher altitude in the sunlight

gg no re

[thorn wedge]

hahahahahah

[acoustic ocean]

Can anyone explain what happen in The Milagro Man chapters

I don't understand if it was a stand or what and how did Joshuu overcome it

I understand it increases everytime u buy something, so i do understand how it works though

[thorn wedge]

the money will be returned to you every time

until you're drowning in it

and the ability fades when you give the money back to the previous user

[acoustic ocean]

So he gave it to that dude right

How nice

Well

I am on that Dolomotis lagoon arc, if that is how it is called

[white beacon]

ooh, dolomite was pretty cool

[acoustic ocean]

I haven't read jojolion in 3 days

I am scared

I've got only 10-15 chapters left

[acoustic ocean]

I sometimes rly am confused about stands

Like now

Is it Blue Lagoon... or Blue Hawaiii a Dolomiti's stand 🤦

[lone robin]

blue hawaii's the zombie stand

[white beacon]

Blue Lagoon is Dolomite's idea of the final happiness

[acoustic ocean]

Oh oh

I did not understand that but now i get it

[willow thicket]

I just caught up on jojolion finally and it was a blast

[acoustic ocean]

Nice

I 've got 4 more chapters till i catch up

68th ch rn

I heard in the next 4 chapters something good was gonna happen?

Something with Josefumi and his past

I might just imagining things though 🤷

[willow thicket]

Next 4 chapters have au rohan

[thorn wedge]

chapter 68 is urban guerilla

if you keep reading you'll get

-backstory on yasuho

-a very weird fight

-mamezuku being a terrible person but also a very cool character

-one of the weirdest mofos in all of jojo, poor tom

-a tiny moment of joubin being kinda cool i guess

[void citrus]

any Jobin at all is incentive enough

[winter adder]

I’m hyped for Yasuho’s Rock Human Research because I want to learn their True Names and origin because I hate the term “Rock Human” >:0

[thorn wedge]

tbh it's probably what they're gonna be called til the end

it's a translation for "iwa-ningen"

[winter adder]

O

Oh well pbggthcb

[acoustic ocean]

Mamezuku seems like bad person but his decision is still good

I mean they end up in a better situation

[primal grove]

he kinda reminds me of rohan

dedicated as fuck to his craft, kinda of an asshole

[white beacon]

he IS rohan

[acoustic ocean]

Myb he is his counterpart

If he hides manga in his pole somewhere then

[white beacon]

he hides a plant in one of em so it's pretty much the same thing

[acoustic ocean]

What if Rohan made a manga haracter called Mamezuki or Rai

Then

It is 100% truth

That he is his counterpart

[white beacon]

and in turn, rai cultivates a special plant he named rohan or kishibe

[acoustic ocean]

Yep

He sure is

[acoustic ocean]

I've caught up with manga

Finally

[thorn wedge]

hell yeeeeee

counterparts are not as direct in JJL

it really is a mishmash of a lot of stuff

[acoustic ocean]

Yeee

[pliant laurel]

Nice jovan, welcome to the wait team

[acoustic ocean]

Lmao

I am glad i became veteran in jojo

I've told this story many times, but my friend who got me to jojo never watched or read it after stardust cursader

Student became teacher

[vast minnow]

Heya

So im new to jojos and didnt read any manga yet

Im firt watchin all the anime before

But i heard a lot about jojolion so i thought i should give it a try

[bold garden]

Why are you in part 8 >_>

[vast minnow]

I heard that its not connected to previous parts

[bold garden]

If you haven’t read any manga, I mean you could but it is connected to part 7

[vast minnow]

So i should read part 7 before part 8?

[bold garden]

Yes

[vast minnow]

How many chapter is part 7?

[bold garden]

I honestly forgot

Since I’ve done bad and completed reading the mangas and now gotta wait for chapters

[vast minnow]

Np i just found

98 chapters

[limber spade]

Bruh part 8 is weird, I started last week I'm on the chapter with damo

[bold garden]

I hate forgetting these things, refresh me pls.

[white beacon]

Vitamin C

[limber spade]

Vitamin c

Yeah

[white beacon]

Makes people melt

[limber spade]

He melts sheer heart attack I was like "I thought it had no weakness"

[white beacon]

He infiltrated the higashikata household to find josuke

[bold garden]

OH

[limber spade]

Yeah I'm on the part with the flashback to Kira and josifume

[white beacon]

Got beat by Hato as she used her stand

[bold garden]

HIM

[white beacon]

Yeah

[limber spade]

He's kind of a dick lmao

[bold garden]

No yeah

when I saw him I was like isn’t he older than her?

[white beacon]

*Isn't he uglier than Joshu?

[bold garden]

This is fine

[limber spade]

Does Hato get a stand? That's pretty cool

She's hot

[white beacon]

Oh, well, um

Sorry for the spoiler?

[limber spade]

No I don't care

[white beacon]

Yeah she is

She's Hot-o

[limber spade]

I figured they all had them anyway

Why do all their stands have king in the name??

[kind owl]

@limber spade, you just advanced to level 1 !

[limber spade]

Fun

[surreal harbor]

Continuity

[white beacon]

It's their thing

[limber spade]

Nut king

[white beacon]

All jojo families have a thing they have

[bold garden]

This is true

[surreal harbor]

I think araki did it cause its a cool idea

[bold garden]

My favorite part so far is Mug Alley

Or Mug something

[surreal harbor]

Wait, was josefumi a higashikata?

Or am i misremembering

[bold garden]

Yes

[white beacon]

He isn't

[limber spade]

Kujoh right?

Or however you spell it

[white beacon]

He's a separate line

He's under Johnny's family's lineage

Well, assumed

[limber spade]

Johnny, my boi

Best jojo

[surreal harbor]

Missed opportunity to call soft and wet ocean man

[limber spade]

Lmao

[bold garden]

Inb4 anime name

[surreal harbor]

Cake by the ocean

[limber spade]

Soft and wet is funnier honestly

[bold garden]

Ye

Well

[surreal harbor]

It has the sexual context too

[bold garden]

Not funnier but the context

[limber spade]

That scene at the start with the girl in the tub and he's just like "shhhhhhh.. Soft and wet"

[surreal harbor]

She must have been so confused

Like, now is not the time to compliment me

Also creepy

[limber spade]

When people yell their stand names out loud it must be so confusing to anyone around them

[surreal harbor]

More confusing in the botched english translations

FLACCID PANCAKE

[limber spade]

the middle of the streets in India just like "Silver chariot!"

The English stand names 😂

[bold garden]

I forgot if she could see the stand affecting her or if she learned what not to touch

[limber spade]

Filthy acts at a reasonable price

[surreal harbor]

Imagine just hearing someone scream that

Youd be like, im not sure how thats relevant mr president

[limber spade]

Brb class

[bold garden]

I wonder if Johnny came across Rolling Stones when his life was being explained after the race.

[winter adder]

Villain Theory I Might Have Already Said:
The boulder that did you-know-what to Johnny is a rock animal that’ll control his body and is the source behind the rokakaka trade because h

[bold garden]

Ooooooo

I like that

[surreal harbor]

So, what are rock animals?

Like, i get rock humans

But where do the animals come from?

[winter adder]

Yeah

Wait do you mean like
What are they or when are they introduced as a thing that exists

[surreal harbor]

Both i guess

[winter adder]

They’re kind of recent and we don’t really know

[surreal harbor]

Well

[limber spade]

@winter adder thats a pretty cool theory

more johnny the better in my brain

[winter adder]

Unfortunately it most likely won’t but yeah <:3
Just Like DIO..,,

[limber spade]

yeah i think the boulder wasnt actually a boulder

it was the rock disease right?

[acoustic ocean]

I actually am quite confused how boulder got on johnnys face to this dau

I know he saved his son but how in middle of no boulder boulder showed up

Or was there a falling boulder but i forget?

In any case it is still cool to make theories up

Myb we can connect original universe and predict what will happen

So when are we getttin an alien dude in p8?

[winter adder]

It seemed to just appear

[acoustic ocean]

It is weird as how it came out of nowhere

I understand why it happen

But jojo is not about magiclly spawning things out of nowehere

There can be some good backstory about that too

[primal grove]

it was the stand that "killed" Johnny

Les Feuilles

from the shakedown road

[winter adder]

Wait
Was that obvious because that arc was displayed right before/after
Am I a dumbass

[acoustic ocean]

i am confused

again

[bold garden]

I can try to answer

[acoustic ocean]

i don't wanna rearead it but ihave to atleast search for that stands answer cause i forget what that is what itwas

well uf u want to i wouldn't mind

[primal grove]

you can kinda see the leaves getting closer to him and what not

[kind owl]

@primal grove, you just advanced to level 9 !

[primal grove]

and some panels focusing on the leaves

the old man who is telling Gappy about Johnny Joestar then says

[acoustic ocean]

So the stand from that road killed johnny

How lame

Well tehnically

He did not, he killed himdelf using spin right?

And then basiclly that stand made it look like an accident

The part that is confusing me sometimes is how why and what not those agents brought back corpse like it had so much influence in p7 but now its like thing that like whatever

What if Jesus was a rock human

[bold garden]

My god

It just works

[acoustic ocean]

Yeah but those are some stuff that may be considered.... plot holes? Or they are not plotholes 😕

[bold garden]

It isn’t

I believe the rocks became a thing after the whole wall faces

[primal grove]

that bit is indeed a bit confusing, but he does shoot his son and the corpse at the same time with Tusk 4

by shooting the corpse, it gets transfered to him instead, with the disease as well

it was the only way of transfering the disease from his son to someone else that wasn't his wife

[limber spade]

Yeah spin didn't kill him the disease did

[kind owl]

@limber spade, you just advanced to level 3 !

[limber spade]

He tried to save his wife then it went to his son

So he took it from his son

[acoustic ocean]

Oh

Then that boulder was something like that was built from his body?

Or myb his body attracted boulder

Like a magnet

[limber spade]

That's what I thought, the boulder came from his body after he died

Someone re read the chapter already lol

[winter adder]

I can’t believe some trees killed a jockey

[limber spade]

not some trees

the rock virus

he died to save his wife and son

like the best jojo that he is

[primal grove]

i don't think he was insta dead from the disease, i think the boulder killed him

but he was a goner either way

[bold garden]

Yeah the bolder smooshed Johnny

[winter adder]

Wait doesn’t the super mega infinite spin keep your cells spinning forever
Could he be alive and a rock diseased dude with a boulder for a head guys controlling the rokakaka trade even though it would heal him a
the Dream is still alive even though that weird shrine Kaato took Jobin to might suggest that his body is there right
WAit is Valentine’s limp, dead body just gyrating or is he canonically hopping timelines like in Eyes of Heaven
I forget all of Jojo

[primal grove]

the infinite spin eventually desintegrates the person

[winter adder]

U_U

[acoustic ocean]

What if there was some dude that made an equivavelent change eith johnny when he shot himself with so that half of johnny and other guy was killed like kira

But there was some other that is living

Causr he was rock human and kept ability to live long as a rokc

And got idk spinning rocks

And that that dude made a child called ****** and he/she had a child
...Josefumi

And that is the connection

Wouldn't that be cool

[sand nimbus]

Other important crop

[sand nimbus]

Also important crop

[tardy mica]

josuke existed for a few hours and 2 girls already wanted his meat

[sand nimbus]

Only Daiya matters

[tardy mica]

she has the obsessive part of yukako while karea has the stand

[red ingot]

Is there anymore volumes after king nothing? I am on the colors releases

[pliant laurel]

i wanna say no

[bold garden]

For colors there isn’t

Black and white there are

[red ingot]

Okay, thanks

[limber spade]

Out of context jojo

Pic won't load screw me

[acoustic ocean]

Is new chapter going out tomorrow?

[primal grove]

no chapter this month

it's on hiatus

[sand nimbus]

The last chapter out is 72

You won't see anything else for a while

[pliant laurel]

hes just trying to grow fried chicken trees

[topaz lion]

Jesus and the president of the United States
