same with king nothing, from the same part
wait what is king nothing changed to
fucking
idk
Yasuho is not a joho
emperor nothing
that song is great. i'm so glad araki used it
inb4 nut king call is king of nuts
I wonder if the king thing will amount to something
Flower Park is probably the only localized name I like
or if it's just a little cool thing araki put there
probably not its something neat
it's nuts n bolts @novel igloo
I like Shining Diamond a lot
yeah
Shining Diamond is good because the music reference is still intact
Just more subtle now
yep
yea all the main characters stand names have been good
and I like subtle references
except idk if stone free is gonna get called stone ocean
cuz if its called stone ocean itll kinda defeat the purpose
"i'll use my stone ocean to get free from this stone ocean"
Golden Wind and Stone Ocean equally suck
Golden Wind doesn't ruin the purpose of the name at least
that was meant to be ^
Both are the part name
only bad thing it does is make people think it's called "Golden Experience"
yeah
stone free is literally symbolic
so when u change the name it kinda just defeats the purpose
I'd like Ocean Free
Yeah
or smth
I don't remember
diver drive
Lmao
oof
kiss is uhhhh
something like that
the smooch isnt bad i guess
I like Maiden Heaven
pucci shows jolyne his pale snake and she gets a restraining order
cmoon is full moon
Maiden Heaven is pretty enat
and maiden heaven is fine
Neat
i hate maiden heaven because now whenever i try to type made in heaven i type maid in heaven
Weather Forecast is also ok
I wanna know what Doggy Style will be
probs still doggy style
Dogstyle
part 8 also has
Doggy Fashion ((((no sex around here)))))
some really cool stand design
doggystyle looks cool even though its just a better version of stone free
i like the stand designs in PHF
Joy Joy Joy 
enat
some really cool stand concepts
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
vento aureo was better without sleeping slaves imo
wrong channel to discuss that though i guess
Why
I like how dolly dagger is broken buy the user is an edgelord
It explained everything
it felt more like an afterthought than an actual explanation though
Was sleeping slaves rollimg stones
Yes
yeah
And it was symbolic and shit
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
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
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
I really liked it
It did a great job """setting"""" up the part 5 theme of fate and all
Even if it was an epilogue
i guess that's kinda my problem
if it had somehow been reworked into being a prologue i probably would have liked it better
I think the major problem people have with it is that it's the only epilogue for part 5
It works better in the end
i disagree
It would spoil the deaths if it was the prologue
that's why i said reworked
We get 1 page as boss giorno, we don't know what the fuck trish is doing and how will things work for them
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
Yeah
i like phf's explanation for what happened to trish
I do wish the anime expands on the ending
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
Doesnt need to be one or the other
At least a bit of "yeah this happened" would be better than 1 page of boss giorno
so wait does giorno keep GER
know
I assume he doesnt since the arrow fell off
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**
I assume he does because he managed to easily convince the entire of the passione higher ups to allow him into the boss position
he inherited dio's charisma so that could just be that
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
Giorno being the boss doesnt make sense in any way possible
I'd say regular GE is enough
if he doesn't have GER
if the capos doubt you just say "ok if you dont want me boss ill just kill you"
if he has GER it makes sense why he’d be unresisted
boss giorno won't last much
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
not to mention that without polpo there's no tests so new members won't have stands
We dont?
well that can be explained
Narrator said Giorno might return
simply
we know he’s healthy enough to be in Florida
Clear evidence of ger
by ARAKI FORGOT
and he’s not pulled by pucci’s gravity
meaning he’s complete as a person and doesn’t need pucci’s support further
Thats stretching it
so I doubt he just got a coup-de-ta from passione
He doesnt need ger to be a complete person
but he wouldn’t be complete if he’d just been dethroned as mafia boss
Imo he wouldn't have been attracted since the beginning of part 5
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
he might not always have GER but maybe he can use the arrow and get it whenever he wants
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
definitely
I wanna work for Giorno ngl
I'd work for GioGio aswell
Any way read the manga 
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
and I pm you the link I'm on?
Here’s the link
I was on that and I navigated to the english monochrome one
Yes that’s all of the chapters caught up
So I just read up from here? Am I missing anything?
Part 8 is not finished yet
Yeah ik
Yes just read the black and white stuff till the end
Sweet, thanks
Why doesnt josuke like fried chicken
^^^^ Top 10 mysteries of part 8.
He just wants those crunchies
Fried chicken overrated
:(
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
gappy, josuke, jo2uke, josuke 8
Fair enough
I personally call him Josuke unless it's conclusive
Confusive
What is the world
WORD
I fucking hate mobile
Mobile gang rise up
Anyways I call him Josuke or part 8 Josuke or gappy
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
josuke isnt even fromthe higishikata family tho??
hey guys where do i read part 8 ?
colored or black and white?
black and white goes farther
cuz colored hasnt caught up yet
mangadex
heres for black and white
@novel igloo thanks you're fuckin the greatest
@novel igloo he's adopted
mitsuba is also not higashikata by blood but has king in her stand
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?
pls dont use the r word
force of habit

I'll take away your shigechi homework folder
Mfw the jojo manga uses the r word itself
yea im nto sure
so wait theres only 1 guy left
in the hospital people faction
or whatever u wanna call it
Rokakaka research group
o yea
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
just a background character
Can you imagine if near the end of Jojolion, we see soft and wet evolve into king crimson like that bizarre theory said?
Angry soft and wet
I mean I still don't know why josuk8 is called gappy
The gap in his teeth.
that makes sense now

The concept of King C. being Josuke's future Stand was cool, but the actual logic behind the theory is off-putting.
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?
sorry
isnt the new chapter march 11?
It's 18/19/20 like usual
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
Wait so is norisuke literally fucking dead
yes
F
h
So wait is the while camp thing going on directly after hospital arc
Or is it a time skip
i think so
Tooru has no reason to yasuho though, she's already wavering for feelings for josuke, and tooru is already taking advantage of that
Also, that tsurugi school moment happens 3 days after the hospital arc
yes
O aight
Cuz norisuke is 10 days after the hospital arc
I think josuke and fruit rohan are gonna kill the last research gu
doesnt tsurugi have one of the highest kill counts in jojolion?
Discover jobin has plant
Rai is fruit rohan
since when
Tooru is yasuho's ex
o yea
Im on most recent one
same
He held yasuho's hand and something and now she's reconsidering her feelings for josuke
The last doctor is old, presumably
And tooru only works part time at the hospital I think, or at least, plays a non-important employee there
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
oh shit i forgot jobin
needs 100% more tsurugi
jobin is basically part 8 diego but eviller
aisho was hot
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*
Josuke beating The shit out of a little kid would be funny
I don't expect Tsurugi to really fight anyone, most likely he will just breakdown when finally confronted
research guy is prob kaato
kaato is gilf right
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
That could also happen
Just because we know he doesn't have the branch
research guy will prob end up as kaato main villain reveal
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
Caato's stand and Jobin's hidden ability are still there
We know caatos stand
Also Tsurugi's stand is evolving so
Thats a possibility
i hope not
I mean they scrapped josukes sbiliyy
joshu main villain
Give us a joshu redemption arc
I'd accept that just because then he can get killed by Josuke
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"
Yea idk
thats what it is basically
They also pop i guess but its not very strong
Also, what was that whole "the bubbles are strings spinning really hard"?
ye
also this is the string thingy
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
inb4 king crimson /s
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
Yasuho
Yasuho Hirose pls
lol
Yasuho can be both
Well before she fucking friendzoned josuke
she's been helping josuke since day 1 but ok here random weirdo appear for like 2 arcs and now he's the jobro
Are you gonna neglect how much she's done for josuke
Yasuho is hot
Yes
I'll agree that she's useless in battle but she's definitely the jobro
kyo better not have gotten forgotten
@noble zenith, Your Gangstar cred is now level 4 !
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
nah 7 and 8 arent related to part 6 at all
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
Did Araki have to make that clear?
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
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 😛
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?
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
maybe we get some equivalent exchange action to "save" her 😦
I got to hand it to Araki it would be super sad
Oh god, there was another 'is Yasuho the Jobro' debate?
I swear that happens every day.
i guess some people just don't think girls can be bros, in the figurative sense
If girls cud be bros my waifu Kyo wouldnt be irrelevant @white beacon
if jojolion will ever get animated, will it have part 4's ED?
nah
Savage Garden was in P6 anyway
Hey guys remember Karera
Also i really don't see Kaato as a main villain
Maybe something like high voltage
Then ye
something that crossed my mind is that the protagonists are always reactionaries
Jojolion ed will be september
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 !
it would be nice to see a part where this power balance shifts
a part where a villain is created due to the protagonist's actions?
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
Yeah but Jolyne got in that situation because of Jotaro
@white beacon that would be awsome
But he was in that position because of the crimes he did
just wanna say i haven't touched part 8 yet
so who are those gay dudes in sailor outfits?
one of them is josuke higashikata, the main jojo
the other is yoshikage kira, not the main jojo
yes, it is yoshikage kira's stand
did he already touch that doorknob?
no doorknob touching
he cant do THAT much fanservice
can he still blow shit up?
well damn
@uncut trail, Your Gangstar cred is now level 4 !
instead of some weird finnicky thing
is it still as op as it was?
bites the dust?
This Kira doesn't care about hiding his traces so he can blow all shit up
No dust biting either
how about touching doorknobs and blowing ppl up?
just read it
There's also controllable SHA that can be summoned at all sizes
its entirely different
But it can be smaller than normal SHA
how big can it get?
Yeah theres as lot of them
normal size
It can't increase size
so a swarm of sheer heart attacks?
ye
It can go from average SHA to microscopic tho
sounds deadly
It is
i need to finish part 7 first but i was just wonderin
I'd say it's stronger than Yoshikage's
part 8's is much stronger
both of their names are kira yoshikage
@uncut trail read and see it in action
ya just read the thing
well thinking about bites the dust and stray cat i dunno about that
still
bites the dust is extremely specific
From part 4
If this Kira had BTD it would be definitely a more generalistic ability
still op tho
part 8's KQ is stronger at combat everything
Getting into spoiler territory here
but part 4 is a stealth killer
i mean the potential of part 4 kq is greater just because of the first bomb
||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
s and w?

explain yourself
You like getting spoiled?
sure
Not like you'll be able to answer anyways
i googled it
ok so from what i understand from the wiki
soft and wet can steal ANYTHING
a concept
That's Josuke's
Josefumi has a different Soft & Wet
From what I understand it can steal properties and fuse it with stuff????
not that it matters cause nowadays soft & wet is just bubbles
i feel like josuke is gonna go through an evolution or some shit
on the last fight
and his stand powers gonna get crazy
I think he will get his memories back
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
yeah
Wats the chapter release schedule ?
once per month? but currently on a one month hiatus
Monthly, at around the 18/19/20th of the month
March feels so far away ;-;
didnt even realize P8 is the longest running Jojo
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 ?

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
wow thanks dude, it makes sense
he also knows japanese
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
It's not like someone will teach you how your stand works
He even used it unconsciously at firdt
First
When blinding joshu
So, what the heck is going to happen now lol
This next chapter better be good, was getting tired of doctor wu
oh boy
I’m not currently reading part 8 but how many chapters are there currently?
83 chapters I think
84 in a couple weeks
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
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
to be fair, josuke helped a whole lot with the quick dry cement bubbles on tomoki
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
they definitely will with this tsurugi arc, for sure
somethings gotta happen next chapter
something happens every chapter
I liked it a lot
Wu was very interesting
we knew next to nothing about mitsuba when it started
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
some people say its gonna be over in july
If its longer than sbr then thats gonna be annoying
Wtf
Idk
Worst arc was probably Ozon Baby
Eh it was better i think
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
I really didn't like urban guerrilla
but that's probably because I don't like mamezuku
I like guerilla more than wu
@long flax, Your Gangstar cred is now level 3 !
I like mamezuku and josuke
i like yasuho
I think mitsuba has a cool stand but somethings screwy with her character
tbh i forgot about urban guerilla until last week
yes
Yes
when yasuho had paisley park use an syringe or something to blow out wu's fragments from her
She also did an x-ray
and that time she hacked the door to enter the rokakaka facility, though that's not exactly the wu fight at that time
That too
Imagine
Part 9
Dio actually attains heaven and recconects the universes and every jojo meets each other
10/10
so... eoh?
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
so, jorge joestar
nah dio ain't in jorge
eh
That part 9 is never happening
The year is 2060
Jojolion still on hiatus
Jojo fans dying of old age while Araki siphons their life energy to prolong his life
@minor ore, Your Gangstar cred is now level 17 !
Part 7 gets animated
funny, but part 7 gets animated at the heat death of the universe
we dont even get part 8
Jojolion ends up pulling a Berserk in it's length by spanning several decades
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
the only thing I care about is seeing the “Shhhh... Soft.... & Wet” panel animated
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
softo ando wetto
Hardo and dry
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
A road roller? Hell yeah
paisley park is hermit purple 2.0
Dude no spoilers
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
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
How do you get the translated one before release
There are only 15 volumes available in the mega
you're looking at the colored versions prob
Also we get the English jojo manga before it’s released in Japan and America?
colored takes way longer to release/be translated
Eighth story arc of JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken series.
Following the Great East Japan earthquake, Morioh has been stricken by vast earthen protrusions known by the locals as Wall Eyes. Despite investigation, professional estimations are left empty. Meanwhile, the young girl Ya...
do you mean the official versions of jojo in english?
Yea
that won't reach jojolion for a long while
only Italy and France are up to date with the jojo manga
Oh I see so it’s fab translated?
Are the fan translations just as good as the official one
probably not but they're are pretty good
Because it seems the same lines appear in the anime subtitles
Which is pretty damn good
official translations have a huge downside which is censorship
in pretty much every stand name
It seems the fan translations are really good because they use the same lines in the anime subtitles
That sounds like sarcasm
@sacred totem, Your Gangstar cred is now level 7 !
Oh sick
it was not sarcasm
Oh ok it’s hard to tell when you’re reading it
Viz really needs to do something about their sluggish schedule
When did they start doing the jojo manga?
around 2015 I think?
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?
Ohh I see
Also starting the manga in 2015 and only starting part 4 isnt excusable imo
Lmao
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
Wow Brazil is way faster with this stuff
How long will it take to translate and scan the rest of jojolions volumes
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
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
They just didnt get enough focus
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
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
Ok thank you
(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
Oh
Nice
Aww man I thought Irene was gonna happen
Eh
Ok I’m gonna leave this chat before spoilers
Peace and thank you
gl
Why would Irene happen
part 8 doesn't get worse as it goes does it?
because this is already super fucking cool
ah, well I'll see once I get to that point I suppose
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
shhh, soft & wet
softu and weto
hard and dry
if a new chapter is released pr month, does that mean some of the fights that are 7 parts 7 months
man
villain of the year 
And sometimes there are hiatuses
it's funny cause it's true
read part 7 in like 4 days, gonna be reading part 8 for 4 years
nope
ah
Before part 7
thought part 6 was bi weekly
That's why everything looks gorgeous and more thought-out now
so they switched to monthly when araki switched to seinen
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
i havent really catched up yet
so who knows
Yeah I caught up during Urban Guerilla and it hasn't been so bad

Plot is progressing
1 month is worth it as you get this
Tf
cool chart btw if you're interested in the serialization schedule
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
Why are most part 8 characters attractive
I said most cause I didn't want to say all and then get questioned about Tsurugi
are you including damo?

People made out of rock aren't my type sorry
tbh most jojo characters are attractive
Speaking of rock humans
How did the architect one make some sort of plastic with his eyes
Or something
part 9 protagonist will be joshu's grandson
Everything he did to Yasuho was weird as fuck
He took some sort of veil out of his fucking eyes
I don't even remember that
But the part where he kept winning all the money was good
@long flax, Your Gangstar cred is now level 5 !
Milagro Man
its like cling film
holy shit-
Part 9: 4 steel balls
attention everyone, we've cracked the code!
when does the next chapter come out
March
which date is it
18/19/20
and is it each month?
Nope
Nijimura Kyo did nothing wrong
Part 9 will have a new female JoJo
