I like to believe Araki's dismissal of wall eyes and bites are a way to say Stand Arrows and any other stand obtainment methods were fucking stupid

Are you not reading it

So did we ever find out if the bites were from the wall eyes

I hope the Wall Eyes stay, otherwise Morioh isn't very special

They havent been mentioned in 60 chapters

I'd like to see them in the background of the anime or something
If Mitsuba turned up after chapters and chapters of just not existing any more, I think anything can happen

Rip wall eyes they were cool

Karera and Kyo disappearing just because they did what they had to do for the plot is a bit sad too
Why aren't you reading the latest chapters?

You may think thats sad but Fighting Spirit not being what gets you a stand is sadder to me

It sort of depends how loose your definition of fighting spirit is

@stark fossil, Your Stand Power is now level 16 !

Thanks
I can't remember how Tonio got Pearl Jam but I don't think it was to do with fighting an opponent
I think if you have some kind of determination, you're likely to get a Stand
If you have something to "fight for" but it could be anything
Even that has exceptions cos I don't think Pocoloco had any real goals
He seemed like just a slacker, I think he just entered the race for a laugh and he just took life in his stride
Though the Stand he got did practically nothing so it sort of works

I mean there’s like 8 ways to get a stand so I’m not suprised

Dio rejected his humanity for plot convenience
Kars was awoken for plot convenience
Kira killed people for plot convenience
Doppio had 2 souls for plot convenience
Pucci was a priest for plot convenience
Valentine was the Potus for plot convenience
Jotaro was 17 for plot convenience

Can't believe Jonathan Joestar was born just for plot convenience

Can't believe holly almost died from a stand for plot convenience, despite literal babies and streets having stands
Also can we talk about how a GODAMN STREET HAS SPIRITUAL ENERGY
old marlin
That baby had lost its mother for who knows how long
Those leaves had a stand for who knows how long
Those rats were feral creatures that only knew survival

Holly formed her personality around looking after her family so I think she deserved a Stand even if it was ostensibly terrible

Holy wouldve gotten a stand like poco loco that just talks to star platinum

I think they're consistent in a super vague way

Leads to a lot of strange and entertaining fights

Almost none of them are inconsistent with the Fighting spirit explanation
Idk how a tree ever got a stand though

Well, we could theoretically have 11 more years of jojo since Araki wants to retire in his 60's

According to a note by Araki in volume 2, the -lion in JoJolion's title is derived from the Ancient Greek εὐαγγέλιον (evangelion), in reference to the Gospels. "By combining this word with "JoJo", I've meant for the title to signify the existence of the protagonist "Josuke" in this world".

Araki has been listening to stuff that's pretty obscure as evidenced by some of the stand names so its really hard to think of what he'd pick

Awaking iii leaves is evidence of that

the first song in it is labled "Dragon's dream" on myspace, but is actually "The Tundra", also by thom brennan

I was baited

I wonder if they did it for this purpose
also this isn't exactly synth either why do they call it that

maybe what I consider synth isn't this

the Legend of Johnny Joestar arc

I don't think we're gonna see his face until atleast June
and even then my guess is that he's a decoy, fake copy of the head doctor in some way
minor ore
Hmm
This might just be me but i'm getting a heavy silver chariot requiem vibe from the way he's portrayed
craggy belfry
that would make a lot of sense with how they just couldn't catch him last chapter
minor ore
Still though i'm confident araki wouldn't just bamboozle us this late into jjl
I really want a three way final battle between him, josuke and jobin
craggy belfry
tbh I still think we have a way to go
right now we're still 6 days away from when Tsurugi is shown with Norisuke's body so I'm sure this Head Doctor thing will be resolved soon
so actually scratch what I said earlier you might be right that we will see him this month
minor ore
He corrupted tsurugi and now both of them want to fight jobin
I honestly think that the final arc will be about a battle on two fronts happening at the same time:
1-Josuke vs Jobin and Kaato
2-Yasuho and Rai vs head doctor/Tooru
Hmm
Interesting theory, this would be the first time a battle like this happened i think
craggy belfry
July 19th, the final battle

ok I just realized I was mistaken and mean to say July 15th so sorry speedweed fan
craggy belfry
no he doesn't want him dead at all, he disagrees with his dad but loves him
unless my vision is disfigured because I haven't reread Jojolion in a while
minor ore
you' re right
I feel like this is a strong case for my theory about head doctor corrupting tsurugi
Jobin is not evil, he does what he does for himself,his wife and his son. He doesn' t want Norisuke to die at all
craggy belfry
That head doctor theory is a pretty strong one
minor ore
We also see him in the spot where the kid almost died
Jobin does a whole speech about why tsurugi is innocent, but he doesn't know that it wasn't his tsurugi that did it, it was a new one with different ways of thought
He tasked tsurugi to kill norisuke because his ability could track down the new roka branch
craggy belfry
now your theory is giving me conflicting thought
cause its a very good theory but I really don't think the Head Doctor is involved that much
minor ore
I mean... He's the HEAD doctor
I think Tooru or Kaato are supposed to be the main villains
craggy belfry
I don't know who Tooru is
minor ore
Yasuho' s ex bf
craggy belfry
I don't remember catching his name at all wow am dumb
minor ore
About the contrasting designs thing...

I saw that and I thought it was wonderful but also made me mad because I want Jobin to be the main villain for some reason
I just love Jobin so much

Wouldn't head doctor be a better fit into it? He contrasts in literally everything from josuke, even physical form and age
I really want Kaato to be the main villain

I've had it and PHF on my pc forever and have just been too lazy to read both
they've been sitting here marinating for over a year

Haven’t finished it yet

Part 8 pretty fucking good if I say so myself tbh fam tbh
minor ore
still early on, but it's great.
idk, can't really form a solid opinion since I don't know much
minor ore
Just knowing that we get to met Funnier Valentine and Funniest Valentine makes me want to read it, but 600+ pages of bad fanfiction is too much
hoary elbow
part 8 is great
analog ether
Look at his teeth

@rocky charm so you know the big tank thing urban guerilla drives? That
viscid lintel
That’s a rock animal
rocky charm
I guess Doremifasolati Do is a hulking beast
But it's not really like what she described
I thought maybe you meant Blue Hawaii's mindless powerful zombies
analog ether
@viscid lintel Yeah, that's why I said it's only kinda the same thing.
It's not even a stand really
viscid lintel
Yeah it’s some kinda mutant
minor ore
Can we talk about how yasuho's hair pin storyline was just sorta dropped?
Had this huge build up and everyone just forgot about it?
rough ermine
Eh might still come back, she brought it up but got ignored by the bros being bros.
Haven't had many chapters since iirc :p
minor ore
Yeah, I hope that gets addressed somehow
Also, Holly's still in that same hospital
It's not like they can do something about it but it's weird that Josuke didn't even mention it again
mossy robin
The hair pin was a Rock Animal, and has since been killed. It was used to introduce the concept of Rock Animals, and Doremifasolati Do IIRC.
rough ermine
That's also true.
minor ore
Did the hair pin get killed? Huh, then I guess there's no reason for Yasuho to bring that up
mossy robin
Her father accidentally broke it or something.
viscid lintel
I don’t think Yasuho ever knew of its true existence
late beacon
Wtf yasuhos mom is gamer
old marlin
Yasuho suffers through alot, she really doesnt deserve anything she gets put through.
tender geyser
Who would win Tsurugi Vs yasuho in a 1v1 🤔 both of their stands are utility and can't be used in a fight directly. I would say Yasuho since Paisley Park doesn't seem to have any limits
old marlin
I would wait to answer that once we see what Tsurugi's power transformation is
craggy belfry
I think a fight like this depends so heavily on the situation they're in anyway you can't just give a solid answer even before Tsurugi gains his true potential
Tsurugi main villain
old marlin
I see jobin as the main antagonist
craggy belfry
I want him to be and I want him to win
but the way Tsurugi is dragging around that Norisuke "corpse" there's so much to unpack
old marlin
What is his victory condition to you?
craggy belfry
probably self preservation
old marlin
Does it end with him harvesting the fruit?
craggy belfry
probably also wants to make his dad happy too
I don't think it'd end there but that's definitely a main goal
old marlin
By self preservation do you mean him saving his son?
craggy belfry
I thought we were talking about Tsurugi
Jobin really only wants the fruit to save his son and make the business better
he's probably taking it from everyone else because he thinks they're ulterior motives conflict with his, and since that level of tension is distrust is present in every character in part 8 among each other obviously they are not going to reveal their true interests to each other
7 more days until the next chapter
I can't wait
tender geyser
By make the business better do you mean selling the rokakaka again? Or saving tsurugi will allow the fruit parlour to grow ?
craggy belfry
he wants both of those goals you said but his prime goal right now is to save Tsurugi with it
craggy belfry
I think they destroyed all the rokakaka at the university hospital but its still possible they can be imported
we don't know if the head doctor has a personal stash though
tender geyser
So do you think that there will be a fight between josukes side who want holly to eat it and joubins side who want tsurugi to eat it?
That's the only way I see joubin as evil tbh
craggy belfry
I don't have any thoughts on that yet
I really don't know how it'll play out, all I have an idea on are the figures that could be involved
and Caato is definitely gonna back and do something relevant
tender geyser
100 percent
craggy belfry
I really hope I don't eat my words there but I'm sure she will, Araki didn't even name her stand
tender geyser
I think she will too but there have been a few forgotten characters and plot points in JoJolion so far
craggy belfry
I really hope we get a chapter where Kyo goes to the hospital with Josuke to check on Holly that would probably heat things up
its so unlikely but I would like that
tender geyser
She would have like the perfect stand to find the head doctor since born this way can just follow him, but I guess no one wants to ask her for help...
craggy belfry
I would be SOOOO happy if they got her help
that's a good point too... maybe Araki might do something with that next chapter
I thought this was a regular Gyro image I don't remember saving this
tender geyser
lol
craggy belfry
I have 3000+ jojo images so I guess it shouldn't be a surprise there are some I don't remember
tender geyser
Is that supposed to be anime style or something
kind owlBOT
@tender geyser, Your Stand Power is now level 4 !
tender geyser
Pretty nice apart from Josefumi he looks way too much like Josuke imo
craggy belfry
he's supposed to look like Josuke
the only time he really didn't was in his first appearance
he looked really weird there
tender geyser
Yeh but he looks exactly the same, at least in the manga they look like different people but maybe that's just because of the art style
Kira doesn't look like Kira so doesnt really matter if Josefumi looks different
In my opinion
craggy belfry
I think they're trying to make Kira look like Jotaro here
he doesn't look like Jotaro much in the manga which is surprising he has a pretty unique face and facial expressions
tender geyser
Yeh but Holly doesn't really look that similar to the original one, and I guess Johnny doesn't look anything like Johnathon?
craggy belfry
I don't like thinking about part 8 holly cause her design is atrocious
tender geyser
And we all know Kyo is supposed to be Jotaro😤 not Kira
Part 8 Holly is really cursed
craggy belfry
Johnny really doesn't look anything like Johnathan at all you're right about that, the only character that was really the same in SBR was Diego
Kyo and Kira are supposed to be Jotaro
Kyo dresses like him, Kira acts like him
well
as much as Kyo can dress like jotaro in a maid outfit
so mainly just the hat
tender geyser
Isn't there that one manga cover where Jotaro and Dio are dressed as maids or something
craggy belfry
what was Araki smoking
craggy belfry
if only we could read japanese
isn't it weird how western anime communities are so cut off from japanese anime communities
like they don't talk to us and we can't talk to them
atleast 99 percent of the time its like that
which is weird cause in order to translate manga and scan them I'm guessing you need some knowledge of japanese and those people could be involved with the japanese communities
tender geyser
Yeh I think the language barrier is probably a big reason but I also feel like Japenese fans probably look down on us 😓 idk why or if that's even true
Especially for JoJo when they all have 8 parts officially translated and it's really popular whereas in the west we only have 1-4 in physical copies (at least in English)
old marlin
The Head Doctor is very similar to SCR
I love the connection they share appearance wise
craggy belfry
I just want the next chapter to FUCKING get here I have exactly a week to wait
tender geyser
SCR?
craggy belfry
Silver Chariot Requiem
tender geyser
Oh ye
rough ermine
It's just the language and culture barrier rly. How often would you even try to interact with them. Also liking the occasional manga or anime is not really a subculture type thing like it tends to be in the west.
Sure you got the hard otakus but those even more so stick to their circles.
craggy belfry
there are definitely a number of japanese jojo fans that speak english, we can all be certain of this since its a commonly spoken second language in Japan, they just don't choose to interact with anyone outside the general fanbase
rough ermine
I mean, they don't really have to do they
old marlin
Due to the way english is taught in japanese education it is up to the student to determine if they want to learn english as a second language or not. It is mandatory but it is not important on their record
craggy belfry
well they don't have to I'm just wondering why they don't hence the whole point of the question
upbeat hazel
Part 8 better have a good ending few arcs to make up for the middle of the part
minor ore
6 days
minor ore
why did you say that like middle jojolion is as bad as middle stone ocean? 
upbeat hazel
You’re right it’s not as bad
ITS WORSE
void viper
nothing is worse than the middle part of part 6
minor ore
Except Part 1
void viper
as much as I like part 6 I could really do without that
part 1 is better than part 3
so no
minor ore
I guess nothing is worse than SC weekly fights
upbeat hazel
Part 1 worst part
fleet pier
wew with the good opinions
upbeat hazel
Part 3 is good
minor ore
Part 3 is just way too long and overstays its welcome, otherwise it's a solid part
The villains are also as one dimensional as they you can possibly get
analog ether
Part 3 is shorter than every other part that follows it
void viper
They’re zero dimensional
analog ether
The anime just has shit pacing
void viper
The anime is longer though
analog ether
The manga is better
upbeat hazel
Part 3 is the only part where the manga may be preferable to the anime
void viper
^
analog ether
Put this into perspective
We are on Episode 29 of part 5, and we are just starting the parts penultimate fight
on episode 29 of stardust crusaders, we were finishing the anubis fight
void viper
That’s the second season though right?
analog ether
Despite the fact that the manga for part 3 and 5 are basically the same length
yeah
But that is terrible fucking pacing
void viper
It’s god awful
It was uniform as well
Two episodes a fight, no variation
I’ll just say that if I read the part 3 manga I probably wouldn’t enjoy it more
Because it’s still fight after fight with no real breaks
mighty stirrup
Note to self: don’t read JoJolion in public. The California King bed chapters specifically
fleet pier
two episodes a fight?
there's multiple fights that are only 1 ep
void viper
All of the fights I can remember are two episodes
upbeat hazel
Mfw California king bed
void viper
Tower of grey might’ve been one?
upbeat hazel
Tower of grey and the sun were one ep
mighty stirrup
You’re right
fleet pier
jotaro vs avdol, kakyoin, tower of gray, silver chariot, dark blue moon, strength, ebony devil, yellow temperance, the empress, wheel of fortune, the sun, and oingo boingo
all of these are 1 ep fights
upbeat hazel
Is oingo boingo really only one ep
upbeat hazel
Wild
stark fossil
Oingo and Boingo was lit, not sure if the Hol Horse remix deserved two eps
minor ore
Reading the manga currently and i'm enjoying it way more
Especially since there's actual colors
And no stiffness
upbeat hazel
I wanna reread parts 6-8
minor ore
Enjoy this picture of jotaro with a huge mullet and a police hat

I’ve read them all only once and wanna do it again

Isn't the line "Trash-Human-ese"?
Maybe I remember it wrong.

no idea. but I'm reading JoJo's Colored Adventure version
I'm starting to love this moron. Joshu is a pretty funny guy

4 more days until a new chapter
turbid slate
Idk exactly what makes me feel this way, but I think this is my least fav part
On chapter 71 atm
But all the exposition just wears me out, and I feel like the story ain't really going anywhere
Thanos snaps*
minor ore
@turbid slate welcome to the club
turbid slate
is that a general opinion?
tender geyser
Well the story is finally picking up in the last few chapters, but I personally don't have a problem with exposition as it doesn't seem that much more more than in the other parts
minor ore
It's okay to dislike, this isn't the jojo we are used to but that doesn't mean it's a bad manga
Just not what jojo used to be
primal grove
imagine reading part 4 if it was monthly
craggy belfry
I don't want to think about that
minor ore
It’s mainly that it feels like there is no direction at points
And characters that were integral to the plot just vanish
desert sail
This makes me uncomfortable
minor ore
craggy belfry
do you guys think the man in josuke's memory was dropped by Araki
analog ether
I honestly don't know
Araki bringing back Mitsuba after not mentioning her for years has fucked up my perception of his writing skills
craggy belfry
she was probably a bit easier to remember since Tsurugi has to have a mother
analog ether
True
At the same time
Araki had to concept up that character and then write him into the story.
It's very odd that he'd just not be important, even for Arakis standards
craggy belfry
but he has not been referenced since chapter 5, the plot has changed, and most importantly, this type of thing happening with flashbacks has not happened again.
if he was going to keep it in he probably would have made him remember other things at dire times
analog ether
If that is the case and he is dropped from the story
I'm really curious to hear the whole story of why that happened and why he never comes back up
craggy belfry
hopefully he gets interviewed about it
craggy belfry
why aren't you church of Joshu anymore
minor ore
Because my pfp is polnareff
craggy belfry
can it be... Joshu
minor ore
I like this image way too much, if i'm gonna switch i'll have to draw joshu doing the same expressions

chad moment
sacred magnet
you think the wall eyes and bite marks are ever gonna come back or are they just going to be another araki forgot
void viper
either they come back in the final fight
upbeat hazel
never coming back
void viper
or this is an actual araki forgot
analog ether
Bite marks ain't coming back
Wall eyes I don't even know what else you could do with them
craggy belfry
the question is did he forget or did he drop them
analog ether
Since the new rokakaka basically does the same thing as it bow
void viper
I mean, we think it does
analog ether
Well it heals people by equivalent exchanging with another person
We know that at least from the flashbacks
minor ore
Gappy's levels of chad exceed the limits of the human body
even the amount of his balls does it
void viper
that's not what the walls eyes do though?
unless I'm mis-remembering
I thought they swapped between two things
sacred magnet
i'm pretty sure it turned out the wall eyes didn't do anything and it was just the land around it that combined two things buried in it
minor ore
I thought wall eyes were just the palm of the devil 2.0
upbeat hazel
^^
void viper
I think that they are
analog ether
The wall eyes swapped up2 things randonmly and the rokakaka swaps unhealthy and healthy body parts between 2 things
I think
upbeat hazel
i dont think so
analog ether
And the wall eyes give you stands cause of the corpse being there
upbeat hazel
couldnt tell you why i dont think so but that feels wrong
analog ether
Hmm
