waxen wharf
#

novel igloo
#

wait what is king nothing changed to

waxen wharf
#

king of nothingness

#

go figure

novel igloo
#

ehhhhhhhhhhh

#

ehhhhh

waxen wharf
#

fucking

novel igloo
#

idk

keen furnace
#

Yasuho is not a joho

waxen wharf
#

emperor nothing

novel igloo
#

yea idk doesnt rly roll off the tongue

#

like king nothing

waxen wharf
#

that song is great. i'm so glad araki used it

novel igloo
#

inb4 nut king call is king of nuts

stark wagon
#

I wonder if the king thing will amount to something

minor ore
#

Flower Park is probably the only localized name I like

stark wagon
#

or if it's just a little cool thing araki put there

novel igloo
#

probably not its something neat

waxen wharf
#

it's nuts n bolts @novel igloo

stark wagon
#

I like Shining Diamond a lot

novel igloo
#

oh well rip the king thing then

#

i really liked that

minor ore
#

Most stands already have locazlied names

#

From eoh

waxen wharf
#

yeah

upbeat cloak
#

Shining Diamond is good because the music reference is still intact

#

Just more subtle now

stark wagon
#

yep

novel igloo
#

yea all the main characters stand names have been good

stark wagon
#

and I like subtle references

novel igloo
#

except idk if stone free is gonna get called stone ocean

stark wagon
#

yeah

#

I was gonna mention that

novel igloo
#

cuz if its called stone ocean itll kinda defeat the purpose

stark wagon
#

stone ocean sucks so much

#

whoever decided on that haven't read the part

waxen wharf
#

"i'll use my stone ocean to get free from this stone ocean"

novel igloo
#

tusk is still tusk i think

#

and soft and wet is ok so idk

waxen wharf
#

tusk isn't really copyrightable so i'm not surprised

#

it's just a word

novel igloo
#

yea

#

best localization is still reverb

minor ore
#

Golden Wind and Stone Ocean equally suck

novel igloo
#

nah

#

golden wind is way better

#

than stone ocean

waxen wharf
#

fuck

stark wagon
#

Golden Wind doesn't ruin the purpose of the name at least

waxen wharf
#

that was meant to be ^

minor ore
#

Both are the part name

stark wagon
#

only bad thing it does is make people think it's called "Golden Experience"

novel igloo
#

well its not like golden experience

#

meant anything

waxen wharf
#

yeah

novel igloo
#

stone free is literally symbolic

#

so when u change the name it kinda just defeats the purpose

stark wagon
#

I'd like Ocean Free

minor ore
#

Yeah

stark wagon
#

or smth

novel igloo
#

ocean free

#

would be cool

minor ore
#

Part 6 has the worst

#

FLACCID PANCAKE

novel igloo
#

what is flaccid pancake

#

btw

minor ore
#

The Smooch

#

Limp Bizkit @novel igloo

novel igloo
#

ouch

#

what is diver down

minor ore
#

I don't remember

waxen wharf
#

diver drive

minor ore
#

Lmao

novel igloo
#

oof

waxen wharf
#

kiss is uhhhh

novel igloo
#

where do u get all these localizations

#

the smooch?

waxen wharf
#

something like that

novel igloo
#

the smooch isnt bad i guess

waxen wharf
#

the wiki, but they're originally from the bandai namco games

#

oh, smack not smooch

novel igloo
#

ehhhhh

#

white snake is like white smoke

#

or something

#

pale snake

stark wagon
#

I like Maiden Heaven

waxen wharf
#

pucci shows jolyne his pale snake and she gets a restraining order

novel igloo
#

cmoon is full moon

minor ore
#

Maiden Heaven is pretty enat

novel igloo
#

and maiden heaven is fine

minor ore
#

Neat

novel igloo
#

i will say that part 6 has some of the best stand design

#

in the parts

waxen wharf
#

i hate maiden heaven because now whenever i try to type made in heaven i type maid in heaven

minor ore
#

Weather Forecast is also ok

stark wagon
#

I wanna know what Doggy Style will be

waxen wharf
#

probs still doggy style

minor ore
#

Dogstyle

novel igloo
#

part 8 also has

minor ore
#

Doggy Fashion ((((no sex around here)))))

novel igloo
#

some really cool stand design

minor ore
#

What about Fun Fun Fun

#

Joy Joy Joy

novel igloo
#

doggystyle looks cool even though its just a better version of stone free

waxen wharf
#

i like the stand designs in PHF

stark wagon
#

Joy Joy Joy GWpaboaPepeStap

novel igloo
#

phf is also good

#

but i read it like half a year ago

#

so idk

keen furnace
#

enat

novel igloo
#

some really cool stand concepts

stark wagon
#

I felt like it was the epilogue vento aureo needed

#

for some reason araki decides to end stories without telling us what happens to the characters

waxen wharf
#

vento aureo was better without sleeping slaves imo

#

wrong channel to discuss that though i guess

minor ore
#

Why

novel igloo
#

I like how dolly dagger is broken buy the user is an edgelord

minor ore
#

It explained everything

waxen wharf
#

it felt more like an afterthought than an actual explanation though

minor ore
#

Not really

#

It felt planned to me

novel igloo
#

Was sleeping slaves rollimg stones

minor ore
#

Yes

waxen wharf
#

yeah

minor ore
#

And it was symbolic and shit

novel igloo
#

Yea i agree

#

Didnt feel welcome

#

And i feel like some people got out of it that mista killed eberyone because he cant fucking follow directions

minor ore
#

They would die anyways

#

If they got close to it

#

It would show

#

But Bruno was fated to die first

#

Mista just altered the order

#

Which ended up working

waxen wharf
#

read to me more like a "aha!! see, now my plot has a reason to be so contrived" rather than an actual attempt to explain what happened

novel igloo
#

but yea idk how i feel about it

#

its ultimately harmless but has no effect as well

minor ore
#

I really liked it

waxen wharf
#

that's fair

#

just didn't sit well with me

minor ore
#

It did a great job """setting"""" up the part 5 theme of fate and all

#

Even if it was an epilogue

waxen wharf
#

i guess that's kinda my problem

#

if it had somehow been reworked into being a prologue i probably would have liked it better

minor ore
#

But it is a prologue

#

Just after

stark wagon
#

I think the major problem people have with it is that it's the only epilogue for part 5

minor ore
#

It works better in the end

waxen wharf
#

i disagree

minor ore
#

It would spoil the deaths if it was the prologue

waxen wharf
#

that's why i said reworked

stark wagon
#

We get 1 page as boss giorno, we don't know what the fuck trish is doing and how will things work for them

spice crystal
#

part 5 is very contained

#

it stays within its bubble of time with a couple flashbacks but it stays very close together the whole time

minor ore
#

Yeah

novel igloo
#

i like phf's explanation for what happened to trish

minor ore
#

I do wish the anime expands on the ending

spice crystal
#

I kinda like it being so contained even if we don’t get full closure on our surviving cast

#

Rolling Stones was better for the part 5 experience than a full vision on our characters late in life

novel igloo
#

god i still fucking miss narancia

#

fucking why dude

minor ore
#

Doesnt need to be one or the other

novel igloo
#

why

#

what did they do to my boy

minor ore
#

At least a bit of "yeah this happened" would be better than 1 page of boss giorno

spice crystal
#

I agree, one chapter of closure would have done some good

#

or even half

minor ore
#

Like all the other parts

novel igloo
#

so wait does giorno keep GER

minor ore
#

We

#

Dont

#

Know

spice crystal
#

know

minor ore
#

I assume he doesnt since the arrow fell off

waxen wharf
#

i know that with the smaller timeskips from part 2 onward it wasn't a good idea for araki to do the whole 'were are they now' thing but i still really liked how part 2 did that

#

where**

spice crystal
#

I assume he does because he managed to easily convince the entire of the passione higher ups to allow him into the boss position

waxen wharf
#

he inherited dio's charisma so that could just be that

spice crystal
#

which would have either required a lot of persuasion or a show of GER’s power, and I doubt Giorno is one to bargain with loads of people for ages

minor ore
#

Giorno being the boss doesnt make sense in any way possible

novel igloo
#

yea thats a possibility

#

i mean it makes sense if he has GER

minor ore
#

I'd say regular GE is enough

stark wagon
#

if he doesn't have GER

novel igloo
#

if the capos doubt you just say "ok if you dont want me boss ill just kill you"

spice crystal
#

if he has GER it makes sense why he’d be unresisted

stark wagon
#

boss giorno won't last much

novel igloo
#

cuz giorno is a bad bitch

#

hes ruthless

spice crystal
#

but we know he’s healthy in stone ocean so it’s very clear he’s successful

#

that’s clear enough evidence he still has GER imo

waxen wharf
#

not to mention that without polpo there's no tests so new members won't have stands

minor ore
#

We dont?

novel igloo
#

well that can be explained

minor ore
#

Narrator said Giorno might return

novel igloo
#

simply

spice crystal
#

we know he’s healthy enough to be in Florida

minor ore
#

Clear evidence of ger

novel igloo
#

by ARAKI FORGOT

minor ore
#

It wasnt even confirmed that he was

#

Just a tease

spice crystal
#

and he’s not pulled by pucci’s gravity

novel igloo
#

it was 100% a teae

#

tease

spice crystal
#

meaning he’s complete as a person and doesn’t need pucci’s support further

minor ore
#

Thats stretching it

spice crystal
#

so I doubt he just got a coup-de-ta from passione

minor ore
#

He doesnt need ger to be a complete person

novel igloo
#

i think he is

#

they were drawn to pucci

#

because they were weak people

spice crystal
#

but he wouldn’t be complete if he’d just been dethroned as mafia boss

minor ore
#

Imo he wouldn't have been attracted since the beginning of part 5

spice crystal
#

since he’s not strongly attracted, he’s achieved his goals and needs no further help

#

so it’s a very reasonable assumption to say he’s still boss

stark wagon
#

he might not always have GER but maybe he can use the arrow and get it whenever he wants

novel igloo
#

also its not like the gng needs polpo

#

to find stand users

#

especially since giorno is the boss the process is prob much more forgiving

spice crystal
#

definitely

minor ore
#

I wanna work for Giorno ngl

spice crystal
#

same

#

I’d be a capo for Giorno any day

minor ore
#

Yup

#

Team me up with Mista too please

spice crystal
#

the most powerful man in the world trusts me

#

pretty cool

minor ore
#

I'd work for GioGio aswell

knotty mango
#

Gappy is a nickname for the main character of part 8

#

@honest wolf

honest wolf
#

Oooooooo

#

I knew it sounded familiar

knotty mango
#

Any way read the manga KonoDioDab

honest wolf
#

Perhopes.

hearhypes

#

Pearhypes*

minor ore
#

Whoops, didnt know chapter titles weren't allowed in general

#

Sorry

cursive patrol
#

So what you’ll need to do is just click over on the side to Monochrome or check around the translator to find that selection

minor ore
#

and I pm you the link I'm on?

cursive patrol
#

Here’s the link

minor ore
#

I was on that and I navigated to the english monochrome one

cursive patrol
#

Yes that’s all of the chapters caught up

minor ore
#

So I just read up from here? Am I missing anything?

cursive patrol
#

Part 8 is not finished yet

minor ore
#

Yeah ik

cursive patrol
#

Yes just read the black and white stuff till the end

minor ore
#

Sweet, thanks

cursive patrol
#

Yes sir

knotty moat
#

Why doesnt josuke like fried chicken

dusky geyser
#

^^^^ Top 10 mysteries of part 8.

minor ore
#

He just wants those crunchies

minor ore
#

Fried chicken overrated

knotty moat
#

:(

mortal wadi
#

Alright ive read everything that's recently been uploaded for part 8

#

What do y'all call him?

#

Josefumi, gappy, josuke, or some other term

stark wagon
#

gappy, josuke, jo2uke, josuke 8

mortal wadi
#

Fair enough

minor ore
#

I personally call him Josuke unless it's conclusive

#

Confusive

#

What is the world

#

WORD

#

I fucking hate mobile

mortal wadi
#

Mobile gang rise up

minor ore
#

Anyways I call him Josuke or part 8 Josuke or gappy

hushed rover
#

SMOKING HOT TAKE

stark wagon
#

it's because of the king thing

#

everyone in the higashikata family has king in their stands except josuke

#

so people believe it will change to have king in the name at some point

#

the stand becoming King Crimson is a huge leap though imo

novel igloo
#

josuke isnt even fromthe higishikata family tho??

thick helm
#

hey guys where do i read part 8 ?

novel igloo
#

colored or black and white?

#

black and white goes farther

#

cuz colored hasnt caught up yet

hushed rover
#

mangadex

novel igloo
#

heres for black and white

thick helm
#

@novel igloo thanks you're fuckin the greatest

stark wagon
#

@novel igloo he's adopted

#

mitsuba is also not higashikata by blood but has king in her stand

novel igloo
#

good point

#

wait does mitsuba even have a stand name?

#

oh thats jobins wife

#

wait no mitsubas stand is awakening 3 leaves

#

do u mean jobins mom?

stark wagon
#

it's awaking 3 leaves

#

jobin's wife yeah

novel igloo
#

OH

#

awaking

#

lmao

#

yea ur right

wicked radish
#

pls dont use the r word

novel igloo
#

force of habit

rustic valve
#

Pl-

#

Fuck you toes

#

Ily

wicked radish
rustic valve
#

I'll take away your shigechi homework folder

minor ore
#

Mfw the jojo manga uses the r word itself

wicked radish
#

:damn:

rustic valve
#

I'ma try not to die now

#

Good day

novel igloo
#

yea im nto sure

#

so wait theres only 1 guy left

#

in the hospital people faction

#

or whatever u wanna call it

minor ore
#

Rokakaka research group

novel igloo
#

o yea

minor ore
hushed rover
#

Who was the woman at the beginning of jojolion that was kidnapped by surfer dude?

#

Her personality is way too out there to be just a background character

stark wagon
#

just a background character

hushed rover
#

Can you imagine if near the end of Jojolion, we see soft and wet evolve into king crimson like that bizarre theory said?

minor ore
#

No

#

I don't want to imagine it

steady sundial
#

Angry soft and wet

loud fiber
#

I mean I still don't know why josuk8 is called gappy

mossy robin
#

The gap in his teeth.

minor ore
#

that makes sense now

minor ore
dusky geyser
#

The concept of King C. being Josuke's future Stand was cool, but the actual logic behind the theory is off-putting.

knotty moat
#

id rather not have soft and wet evolve into king crimson

#

idk i just feel like soft and wet is fine as it is

#

also will there be a new chapter in march?

mossy robin
#

@knotty moat That happens HERE.

#

And not in SBR.

stark wagon
#

guy will be expecting a death in SBR

#

not a big spoiler for him

knotty moat
#

sorry

knotty moat
#

isnt the new chapter march 11?

white beacon
#

It's 18/19/20 like usual

knotty moat
#

oh

#

heres my prediction: paper moon king's new ability is to control other stands and it used this ability to use awaking III leaves to kill that one girl. kaato is revealed as main reveal and kills norisuke and has tsurugi cover it up. tooru becomes minor antagonist and attacks yasuho, josuke and mamezuku on their way to the estate. after that arc the climax of jojolion happens at the estate and one or more of the higashikata sublings die

#

the end

novel igloo
#

Wait so is norisuke literally fucking dead

knotty moat
#

yes

novel igloo
#

F

knotty moat
#

h

novel igloo
#

So wait is the while camp thing going on directly after hospital arc

#

Or is it a time skip

knotty moat
#

i think so

white beacon
#

Tooru has no reason to yasuho though, she's already wavering for feelings for josuke, and tooru is already taking advantage of that

knotty moat
#

wait what

#

oh yeah

#

camp time happens after hopsital arc i think

novel igloo
#

And norisuke ded is after camp

#

?

white beacon
#

Also, that tsurugi school moment happens 3 days after the hospital arc

knotty moat
#

yes

novel igloo
#

O aight

white beacon
#

Cuz norisuke is 10 days after the hospital arc

novel igloo
#

I think josuke and fruit rohan are gonna kill the last research gu

knotty moat
#

doesnt tsurugi have one of the highest kill counts in jojolion?

novel igloo
#

Discover jobin has plant

knotty moat
#

WAIT

#

WHAT IF TOORU IS FRUIT ROHAN

novel igloo
#

Maybe some bs with yasuho

#

Who tf is tooru

white beacon
#

Rai is fruit rohan

knotty moat
#

since when

white beacon
#

Tooru is yasuho's ex

novel igloo
#

o yea

knotty moat
#

lerd which arc are u on?

#

oh

#

ex boyfriend guy

novel igloo
#

Im on most recent one

knotty moat
#

same

novel igloo
#

I didnt remember him

#

I thibk he was a bait

#

Tbh

#

Either that or hes research dude

white beacon
#

He held yasuho's hand and something and now she's reconsidering her feelings for josuke

#

The last doctor is old, presumably

knotty moat
#

theyre age doesnt matter

#

its like what rai said

#

age doesnt matter

white beacon
#

And tooru only works part time at the hospital I think, or at least, plays a non-important employee there

novel igloo
#

Camo mystery thing,They kill reaearch guy, prob some arc with yasuho and then fibal fight with jobin and his mom or something

#

Thats how im expecting itll end

knotty moat
#

oh shit i forgot jobin

minor ore
#

needs 100% more tsurugi

knotty moat
#

jobin is basically part 8 diego but eviller

novel igloo
#

Yea idk if taurugi is full villain now

#

Tsurugi

knotty moat
#

aisho was hot

minor ore
#

I'd be surprised if Tsurugi didn't show up in most of the next chapters, seems like Araki is building up him getting fucked in the head by dad/grandmom*

novel igloo
#

Josuke beating The shit out of a little kid would be funny

minor ore
#

I don't expect Tsurugi to really fight anyone, most likely he will just breakdown when finally confronted

novel igloo
#

Or maybe its gonna be like 3 v 1 v 3

#

With research guy having an op stand

knotty moat
#

research guy is prob kaato

novel igloo
#

kaato is gilf right

minor ore
#

I have a gut feeling that Josuke & Rai finding/fighting research man will be just a side story to this whole "Tsurugi is getting edgy" main arc

novel igloo
#

That could also happen

minor ore
#

Just because we know he doesn't have the branch

knotty moat
#

research guy will prob end up as kaato main villain reveal

novel igloo
#

Maybe research and josuke will team up

#

Though i doubt it

#

Idk im expecting a completely new stand

#

At least 1 more

#

With jobin hidden powers revealed

minor ore
#

Caato's stand and Jobin's hidden ability are still there

novel igloo
#

We know caatos stand

minor ore
#

Also Tsurugi's stand is evolving so

novel igloo
#

Either its hiding objects in other objects

#

Or storinh shit in her cards

minor ore
#

It's getting retconned, i'm 100% sure

#

i have no proofs but neither doubts

novel igloo
#

Thats a possibility

knotty moat
#

i hope not

novel igloo
#

I mean they scrapped josukes sbiliyy

knotty moat
#

joshu main villain

novel igloo
#

Give us a joshu redemption arc

minor ore
#

I'd accept that just because then he can get killed by Josuke

novel igloo
#

Wait so is josukes ability literally just josefumis

#

Now

minor ore
#

I... don't know

#

Every time we see his ability it's something different, from these lasts fights I'd say it's just bubbles that can take things

#

So Josefumi but without "i can take friction"

novel igloo
#

Yea idk

knotty moat
#

thats what it is basically

novel igloo
#

They also pop i guess but its not very strong

minor ore
#

Also, what was that whole "the bubbles are strings spinning really hard"?

novel igloo
#

But can break through soneones skin

#

Wait what

stark wagon
#

he used explosives in the urban guerilla fight

#

so it does have killer queen in it

novel igloo
#

That fight was confusing

#

Ima wait for it to be colored

minor ore
#

^^

#

They weren't explosive, they carried fuel and then Rai ignited it

knotty moat
#

ye

minor ore
stark wagon
#

I meant a different moment than that but I can't check right now

#

you might be right

minor ore
white beacon
#

And that's why rai doesn't mention it to josuke, cuz to him, it doesn't matter

#

Though it should matter, so josuke would develop a deeper understanding of his ability and might develop more abilities

minor ore
#

inb4 king crimson /s

novel igloo
#

Rais kinda an asshole so he probably thinks i doesnt serve any purpose to himself

#

Rais a decent jobro tho

#

Closest weve got to 1

knotty moat
#

Yasuho

minor ore
#

Yasuho Hirose pls

novel igloo
#

Yasuho is more of a love interest tho

#

That's not a bro

minor ore
#

lol

white beacon
#

Yasuho can be both

novel igloo
#

Well before she fucking friendzoned josuke

minor ore
#

she's been helping josuke since day 1 but ok here random weirdo appear for like 2 arcs and now he's the jobro

white beacon
#

Are you gonna neglect how much she's done for josuke

knotty moat
#

Yasuho is hot

novel igloo
#

Yes

minor ore
#

I'll agree that she's useless in battle but she's definitely the jobro

minor ore
#

Kyo x Gappy

#

Hey squad

#

I have a little question

noble zenith
#

kyo better not have gotten forgotten

kind owlBOT
#

@noble zenith, Your Gangstar cred is now level 4 !

minor ore
#

At the end of part 6 Jolyne and Anisui are chillin under different names

#

So are they cannon in 7 and 8?

#

Is Emporio Cannon?

#

Different verse apparently

noble zenith
#

nah 7 and 8 arent related to part 6 at all

minor ore
#

They call it the Ireneverse which was shown at the end of 6

#

bs right

#

K

#

Kinda weird but K

#

I wonder if Valentine could pay the Ireneverse a visit

white beacon
#

he can't

#

the ireneverse exists outside of valentine's power

minor ore
#

Did Araki have to make that clear?

white beacon
#

yes

#

in an interview for asv, he mentioned that josuke4 and josuke8 belong in separate universes and will never meet in any circumstance in his work

#

that's why he finds the games as interesting

#

*asb

keen furnace
#

a big reason for the part 6 ending was so that Araki could tie a ribbon on all the characters/lineages from that universe

#

no more Jotaro!

#

no Jotarene either 😛

keen furnace
#

damn it

#

just realized that none of the main "good guys" have died yet

#

a good guy always dies

#

leave Yukako alone Araki!

#

maybe Kira flashbacks kinda of count?

minor ore
#

I was just about to say this when I saw your message in vento @keen furnace

#

I have a feeling she could die

#

Then the next part makes up for the female death with a female lead

#

Lol

keen furnace
#

maybe we get some equivalent exchange action to "save" her 😦

#

I got to hand it to Araki it would be super sad

granite sedge
#

Oh god, there was another 'is Yasuho the Jobro' debate?

#

I swear that happens every day.

white beacon
#

i guess some people just don't think girls can be bros, in the figurative sense

minor ore
#

If girls cud be bros my waifu Kyo wouldnt be irrelevant @white beacon

quiet bear
#

if jojolion will ever get animated, will it have part 4's ED?

spice crystal
#

nah

minor ore
#

Savage Garden was in P6 anyway

minor ore
#

Hey guys remember Karera

#

Also i really don't see Kaato as a main villain

#

Maybe something like high voltage

#

Then ye

brittle blade
#

something that crossed my mind is that the protagonists are always reactionaries

hushed rover
#

Jojolion ed will be september

brittle blade
#

In each part the villain is the leading half of the story while the heroes just react to the situation they got themselves in

@brittle blade, Your Gangstar cred is now level 13 !

brittle blade
#

it would be nice to see a part where this power balance shifts

white beacon
#

a part where a villain is created due to the protagonist's actions?

minor ore
#

That's part 6 basically

#

Pucci did his evil shit because Jotaro killed Dio

white beacon
#

nah, pucci would still go through those steps and stuff even if dio wasn't killed, just that he'd be by dio's side

#

since that was they're plan anyways

minor ore
#

Yeah but Jolyne got in that situation because of Jotaro

brittle blade
#

@white beacon that would be awsome

knotty mango
#

Well kira was the reactionary

#

He was pretty much cornered

#

And out gunned

white beacon
#

But he was in that position because of the crimes he did

uncut trail
#

just wanna say i haven't touched part 8 yet

#

so who are those gay dudes in sailor outfits?

spice crystal
#

one of them is josuke higashikata, the main jojo

#

the other is yoshikage kira, not the main jojo

uncut trail
#

oh shit

#

is killer queen back?

spice crystal
#

yes, it is yoshikage kira's stand

uncut trail
#

did he already touch that doorknob?

spice crystal
#

no doorknob touching

uncut trail
#

mmm

#

tsk tsk

#

bad form araki

spice crystal
#

he cant do THAT much fanservice

uncut trail
#

can he still blow shit up?

stark wagon
#

yes

#

but with bubbles this time

spice crystal
#

but

#

it blows up the environment as well

#

its an actual bomb

uncut trail
#

well damn

kind owlBOT
#

@uncut trail, Your Gangstar cred is now level 4 !

spice crystal
#

instead of some weird finnicky thing

uncut trail
#

is it still as op as it was?

minor ore
#

They're suited for different tasks

#

Due to the Kiras not being the same

uncut trail
#

bites the dust?

minor ore
#

This Kira doesn't care about hiding his traces so he can blow all shit up

#

No dust biting either

uncut trail
#

how about touching doorknobs and blowing ppl up?

minor ore
#

He makes bubbles

#

That can explode

#

That's his first bomb

grizzled pilot
#

just read it

uncut trail
#

oh

#

what about sheer heart attack?

minor ore
#

There's also controllable SHA that can be summoned at all sizes

spice crystal
#

its entirely different

minor ore
#

Not all sizes

#

It cant get gigantic

spice crystal
#

as small as he likes

#

its also like

minor ore
#

But it can be smaller than normal SHA

spice crystal
#

30

#

lol

uncut trail
#

how big can it get?

minor ore
#

Yeah theres as lot of them

spice crystal
#

normal size

minor ore
#

It can't increase size

uncut trail
#

so a swarm of sheer heart attacks?

spice crystal
#

ye

minor ore
#

It can go from average SHA to microscopic tho

uncut trail
#

sounds deadly

minor ore
#

It is

uncut trail
#

i need to finish part 7 first but i was just wonderin

minor ore
#

I'd say it's stronger than Yoshikage's

uncut trail
#

nah

#

part 4 is stronger i think

minor ore
#

Wait I forgot

#

Is this Kira also Yoshikage

spice crystal
#

part 8's is much stronger

grizzled pilot
#

both of their names are kira yoshikage

minor ore
#

@uncut trail read and see it in action

grizzled pilot
#

ya just read the thing

uncut trail
#

well thinking about bites the dust and stray cat i dunno about that

spice crystal
#

still

minor ore
#

That was an exception

#

Compare it to base KQ

spice crystal
#

bites the dust is extremely specific

minor ore
#

From part 4

spice crystal
#

and normal KQ is literally stray cat KQ

#

in part 8

minor ore
#

If this Kira had BTD it would be definitely a more generalistic ability

uncut trail
#

still op tho

stark wagon
#

part 4 KQ is much better for what part 4 kira does

#

but part 8 is stronger

minor ore
#

This

#

ALSO

spice crystal
#

part 8's KQ is stronger at combat everything

minor ore
#

Getting into spoiler territory here

spice crystal
#

but part 4 is a stealth killer

uncut trail
#

i mean the potential of part 4 kq is greater just because of the first bomb

minor ore
#

||I don't exactly understand the original S&W's abiliy||

#

Proably cause I don't remember a lot of its uses

#

It fuses stuff but what does it mean

uncut trail
#

s and w?

minor ore
uncut trail
#

explain yourself

minor ore
#

You like getting spoiled?

uncut trail
#

sure

minor ore
#

Not like you'll be able to answer anyways

uncut trail
#

i googled it

minor ore
#

Josefumi's Soft & Wet

#

I dont get it

#

I need someone who actually understands it

uncut trail
#

ok so from what i understand from the wiki

#

soft and wet can steal ANYTHING

#

a concept

minor ore
#

That's Josuke's

uncut trail
#

an actual thing

#

oh

#

k let's see

minor ore
#

Josefumi has a different Soft & Wet

#

From what I understand it can steal properties and fuse it with stuff????

stark wagon
#

the whole soft & wet and killer queen stuff is confusing

uncut trail
#

well it seems that it can just absorb aspects of things

#

and maybe fuse them

stark wagon
#

not that it matters cause nowadays soft & wet is just bubbles

novel igloo
#

i feel like josuke is gonna go through an evolution or some shit

#

on the last fight

#

and his stand powers gonna get crazy

minor ore
#

I think he will get his memories back

novel igloo
#

he already has his memories

#

or kinda

#

the whole mystery behind who he is

#

is mostly over

#

now he wants to save his mom or some shit

minor ore
#

AAAAA

#

AA

#

AAG

grizzled pilot
#

yeah

knotty moat
#

Were getting a new chapter in March right?

#

Or is it just the volume?

white beacon
#

Chapter, I think

#

Probably both

minor ore
#

Wats the chapter release schedule ?

keen furnace
#

once per month? but currently on a one month hiatus

white beacon
#

Monthly, at around the 18/19/20th of the month

olive fiber
#

March feels so far away ;-;

minor ore
#

didnt even realize P8 is the longest running Jojo

thick helm
#

hey I'm in the beginning of jojolion rn and i got a question : how the hell josuke doesn't remember anything but he does know who's his stand and how it works ?

minor ore
rocky charm
#

He doesn't remember anything about people, but his muscle memory tells him how to do things

#

It's why he can walk and grab things

#

And Stands are technically muscle memory since they're a part of your soul

thick helm
#

wow thanks dude, it makes sense

stark wagon
#

he also knows japanese

minor ore
#

It makes sense

#

You'll see

grizzled pilot
#

stands are part of your instincts, it's how people know how to use them in the first place. humans generally have a harder time than animals with this

minor ore
#

It's not like someone will teach you how your stand works

#

He even used it unconsciously at firdt

#

First

#

When blinding joshu

thick helm
#

that's god damn cool

long flax
#

So, what the heck is going to happen now lol

#

This next chapter better be good, was getting tired of doctor wu

spice crystal
#

oh boy

tribal root
#

I’m not currently reading part 8 but how many chapters are there currently?

void viper
#

83 chapters I think

long flax
#

84 in a couple weeks

long flax
#

Just kind of disappointed with the part right now

#

It was so good in the beginning but now it feels like most of the characters were lost

minor ore
#

Araki where's my California King Bed

#

Walking Heart

#

King Nothing

#

Born This Way

long flax
#

where's soft and wet lol

#

Josuke has done pretty much nothing the last 5 chapters

minor ore
#

I just want more of Hato

#

@long flax that's normal

#

Last arc was focused on Yasuho and Mitsuba

#

There are many arcs in jojo where the protag isn't the focus

white beacon
#

to be fair, josuke helped a whole lot with the quick dry cement bubbles on tomoki

minor ore
#

I'm hopeful that the family will be the focus again

#

Araki said in 2013 that he would explore them more

#

A man can dream

white beacon
#

they definitely will with this tsurugi arc, for sure

long flax
#

somethings gotta happen next chapter

stark wagon
#

something happens every chapter

long flax
#

No but something interesting

#

Imo the hospital arc was pretty boring

stark wagon
#

I liked it a lot

#

Wu was very interesting

#

we knew next to nothing about mitsuba when it started

long flax
#

I guess

#

I want to know what joubin is doing and how tsurugi killed norisuke

#

And Caato, wtf is she doing, we only saw her once

stark wagon
#

yeah same

#

we probably still have a few years of jojolion though

long flax
#

some people say its gonna be over in july

stark wagon
#

wut

#

who says that

#

jojolion is not even close to an end

long flax
#

If its longer than sbr then thats gonna be annoying

minor ore
#

This arc was great

#

And the next one will be even better r

long flax
#

Eh

#

I think this arc was the worst one of the part

minor ore
#

Wtf

long flax
#

Idk

minor ore
#

Worst arc was probably Ozon Baby

long flax
#

Eh it was better i think

cerulean ridge
#

i feel jjl isn't really going anywhere w its story.....
it does have some semblance of plot, but it kinda moves slowly

#

maybe i just think that bc i haven't read it in a while

stark wagon
#

I really didn't like urban guerrilla

#

but that's probably because I don't like mamezuku

long flax
#

I like guerilla more than wu

kind owlBOT
#

@long flax, Your Gangstar cred is now level 3 !

long flax
#

I like mamezuku and josuke

cerulean ridge
#

i like yasuho

long flax
#

I think mitsuba has a cool stand but somethings screwy with her character

white beacon
#

tbh i forgot about urban guerilla until last week

long flax
#

wait a minute

#

when they fought wu, was paisley park ever used?

white beacon
#

yes

minor ore
#

Yes

white beacon
#

when yasuho had paisley park use an syringe or something to blow out wu's fragments from her

minor ore
#

She also did an x-ray

white beacon
#

and that time she hacked the door to enter the rokakaka facility, though that's not exactly the wu fight at that time

minor ore
#

That too

long flax
#

guess i need to re read it lol

#

I started re reading all the parts but i've been slow

long flax
#

Imagine

#

Part 9

#

Dio actually attains heaven and recconects the universes and every jojo meets each other

#

10/10

white beacon
#

so... eoh?

long flax
#

pretty much

#

but like

#

that would be the climax of the part

#

there would still be a 9th jojo and their story but then that happens at the end

#

Or something like it

grizzled pilot
#

so, jorge joestar

white beacon
#

nah dio ain't in jorge

grizzled pilot
#

eh

long flax
#

I want a stand named Africa now

#

lol

minor ore
#

That part 9 is never happening

minor ore
#

The year is 2060

#

Jojolion still on hiatus

#

Jojo fans dying of old age while Araki siphons their life energy to prolong his life

kind owlBOT
#

@minor ore, Your Gangstar cred is now level 17 !

dense spoke
#

Part 7 gets animated

frozen quiver
#

funny, but part 7 gets animated at the heat death of the universe

#

we dont even get part 8

hushed rover
#

Jojolion ends up pulling a Berserk in it's length by spanning several decades

grizzled pilot
#

in the future, jojolion will be by far the most notable part and people make fun of casuals for not knowing about part7

#

parts 1-6 are considered obscure knowledge

#

it will be 800 chapters and not even close to completion

spice crystal
#

the only thing I care about is seeing the “Shhhh... Soft.... & Wet” panel animated

brittle blade
#

Wait a second

#

Gappy sleeps under mattrasses because he loves to slee with weight on him

#

You know who also love to sleep with weight on them?

#

Autistic people

#

There are even weighted blankets for them

#

Gappy is autistic confirmed

quiet bear
#

softo ando wetto

brittle blade
#

Hardo and dry

white beacon
#

That's a really very hard reach there khris

#

Since you didn't consider that gappy has that habit because he spent most of his time underground

minor ore
#

Andagrando

#

He likes pressure from top

#

I guess he'd enjoy

#

You know what

#

;)

white beacon
#

A road roller? Hell yeah

quiet bear
#

paisley park is hermit purple 2.0

brittle blade
#

Dude no spoilers

sacred totem
#

ok so Im not done with part 8, but how many volumes are finished in Japan and how long does it take to translate it and what volumes cant we spoil here

#

its a great part too and I love the mystery and the history of the character I love this part so far

stark wagon
#

19 volumes released officially

#

enough chapters for 20

#

we always get the translations even before it's officially released

#

you can talk about all of jojolion here

sacred totem
#

How do you get the translated one before release

stark wagon
#

scans

#

I think we get it 1 or 2 days before the magazine is out in japan

sacred totem
#

There are only 15 volumes available in the mega

stark wagon
#

you're looking at the colored versions prob

sacred totem
#

Also we get the English jojo manga before it’s released in Japan and America?

stark wagon
#

colored takes way longer to release/be translated

#

do you mean the official versions of jojo in english?

sacred totem
#

Yea

stark wagon
#

that won't reach jojolion for a long while

#

only Italy and France are up to date with the jojo manga

sacred totem
#

Oh I see so it’s fab translated?

stark wagon
#

yep

#

the us is still at part 3

sacred totem
#

fan*

#

Omg it’s still at part 3

#

Wow

stark wagon
#

yeah

#

viz is slow

sacred totem
#

Are the fan translations just as good as the official one

stark wagon
#

probably not but they're are pretty good

sacred totem
#

Because it seems the same lines appear in the anime subtitles

#

Which is pretty damn good

stark wagon
#

official translations have a huge downside which is censorship

#

in pretty much every stand name

sacred totem
#

It seems the fan translations are really good because they use the same lines in the anime subtitles

stark wagon
#

yeah I have no complaints

#

they're in no way bad

sacred totem
#

That sounds like sarcasm

kind owlBOT
#

@sacred totem, Your Gangstar cred is now level 7 !

sacred totem
#

Oh sick

white beacon
#

They really aren't bad

#

Plus, it's better than no translations at all

stark wagon
#

it was not sarcasm

sacred totem
#

Oh ok it’s hard to tell when you’re reading it

minor ore
#

Viz really needs to do something about their sluggish schedule

#

When did they start doing the jojo manga?

stark wagon
#

around 2015 I think?

minor ore
#

LMAO

#

Damn

sacred totem
#

Ok it’s somewhat excusable

#

Also how long does each colored chapter take

#

Does araki do the colored chapters because if so then is he working on the manga and coloring it at the same time?

minor ore
#

@sacred totem no

#

Shueisha does the colored scans

#

And they're sold virtually

sacred totem
#

Ohh I see

minor ore
#

Also starting the manga in 2015 and only starting part 4 isnt excusable imo

sacred totem
#

Lmao

minor ore
#

Here in Brazil the manga started being serialized last year and volumes are released every 2 months

#

Already in BT 2

#

And it will be monthly after part 2

#

Viz is really slow

sacred totem
#

Wow Brazil is way faster with this stuff

#

How long will it take to translate and scan the rest of jojolions volumes

minor ore
#

Wym

#

Btw almost every country that publishes jojo is faster than the usa lol

sacred totem
#

LmO

#

Lmao

#

I mean there are 19 volumes and more coming and only 15 of them are colored so how long will it take to color 1 volume and translate it

#

And add it to the mega

minor ore
#

Ohhh

#

Idk the colored schedule

sacred totem
#

well im loving this part so far and the mystery is great

#

love the fights

minor ore
#

Yeah it's great

#

It has the potential to surpass part 7

sacred totem
#

I feel like part 4 had slice of life vives and a slight undertone of mystery, but in 8 mystery takes center stage

#

part 7 is a strong part to beat

#

but 8 is a close second

#

I love the dynamic between gyro and Johnny and 7 was all about character, but 8 has great characters too but not as good imo

minor ore
#

They just didnt get enough focus

sacred totem
#

Im on vol 14 chapter 1 and I loved josefumi and yoshikage kira

#

They didn’t have much friendship but I liked it

#

And josefumis sacrifice felt so powerful

#

I love norisuke

#

He’s cool

#

Also I don’t understand josefumis stand or yoshikage Kira’s

stark wagon
#

Colored manga is done by sueisha and released in batches, last batch was released around 7 months ago and had volumes 11-15

#

once they release it the jojo colored adventure team starts to slowly work on it and they were releasing one per week last month

#

they caught up not a while ago and now we're waiting for the next release from sueisha

#

I wouldn't wait for the colored otherwise you'll probably have to wait a long time

sacred totem
#

Ok thank you

stark wagon
#

(jojo colored adventure team are the people that translated the colored manga btw)

#

and they're a different team than the ones that translate the B&W when it comes out

sacred totem
#

Oh

#

Nice

#

Aww man I thought Irene was gonna happen

#

Eh

#

Ok I’m gonna leave this chat before spoilers

#

Peace and thank you

stark wagon
#

gl

minor ore
#

Why would Irene happen

pearl wave
#

part 8 doesn't get worse as it goes does it?

#

because this is already super fucking cool

minor ore
#

Hm

#

It's arguable

#

It's still really good

#

But it's more similar to other parts now

pearl wave
#

ah, well I'll see once I get to that point I suppose

minor ore
#

After the mystery of Josuke's identity was solved he goes searching from the fruit and it gets a bit more villain of the week

#

More like villain of the year

quiet bear
#

shhh, soft & wet

pearl wave
#

softu and weto

long flax
#

hard and dry

quiet bear
#

if a new chapter is released pr month, does that mean some of the fights that are 7 parts 7 months

minor ore
#

I just stole this server's quality with my soap bubbles

#

@quiet bear yes

quiet bear
#

man

stark wagon
#

villain of the year GWpaboaPepeStap

minor ore
#

And sometimes there are hiatuses

stark wagon
#

it's funny cause it's true

minor ore
#

Blue Hawaii arc was half an year of serialization

pearl wave
#

read part 7 in like 4 days, gonna be reading part 8 for 4 years

quiet bear
#

the grateful dead was 1 year

#

then

stark wagon
#

nope

minor ore
#

No

#

It was weekly

quiet bear
#

ah

minor ore
#

Before part 7

pearl wave
#

thought part 6 was bi weekly

minor ore
#

That's why everything looks gorgeous and more thought-out now

quiet bear
#

so they switched to monthly when araki switched to seinen

minor ore
#

Also longer chapters so Grateful Dead would've been a 5-part arc

#

Yes

stark wagon
#

I think if you're catching up to jojolion now it won't be that bad

#

cause we're entering the end game

#

but we might not be

quiet bear
#

i havent really catched up yet

stark wagon
#

so who knows

quiet bear
#

still at like chapter 20

#

cause i jsut finished part 7

minor ore
#

Yeah I caught up during Urban Guerilla and it hasn't been so bad

#

Plot is progressing

quiet bear
stark wagon
minor ore
#

Tf

stark wagon
#

cool chart btw if you're interested in the serialization schedule

quiet bear
#

i got a friend in to jojo about 2 months ago

#

hes back at me and hes ifnished all animated parts

#

hes almost done reading part 5

#

im proud

#

of myself

minor ore
#

Why are most part 8 characters attractive

#

I said most cause I didn't want to say all and then get questioned about Tsurugi

stark wagon
#

are you including damo?

minor ore
#

Perhaps

#

No actually

stark wagon
minor ore
#

People made out of rock aren't my type sorry

stark wagon
#

tbh most jojo characters are attractive

minor ore
#

Speaking of rock humans

#

How did the architect one make some sort of plastic with his eyes

#

Or something

quiet bear
#

part 9 protagonist will be joshu's grandson

minor ore
#

Everything he did to Yasuho was weird as fuck

#

He took some sort of veil out of his fucking eyes

stark wagon
#

I don't even remember that

long flax
#

But the part where he kept winning all the money was good

kind owlBOT
