Yea

old marlin
#

Poor Tom has done every drug

void viper
#

Poor Tom really be wilidin

tawny mist
#

he also looks like a baby

#

is he actually just a really short dude?

grizzled pilot
#

there's no way that dude is like 33

old marlin
#

........

#

33?

#

33 years old???

grizzled pilot
#

actually i just threw a number out there. if anyone knows poor tom's real age feel free to let me know

austere minnow
#

OLD

grizzled pilot
#

but also baby

austere minnow
#

apparently he CLAIMS he's 57 but he's a rock human so who knows

#

or its CLAIMED he's 57, he didn't say anything about it

grizzled pilot
#

there's no way that dude is 57 years old.

old marlin
#

57....?

austere minnow
#

imo, there's no way that dork is a doctor

grizzled pilot
#

the head of all the doctors? i don't think so

minor ore
#

There’s no main antagonist in JoJolion rn right?

tawny mist
#

nope

#

Jobin is the closest thing to one

#

with the obvious contrast between him and Josuke

minor ore
#

i want jobin to be the main antagonist so speed king can have a better ability

#

that's possible but Jobin would still be too boring to be a main villain

#

well yeah but it makes the most sense for him to be the main villain

#

that would feel cheap

#

Araki wouldn't do that

smoky maple
#

Is the higashikata dad

#

???

#

Idk wut his name, is he good guy?

minor ore
#

Norisuke.

#

He wants the best for his family. He hasn't done anything bad that I can remember

minor ore
#

yeah and he even collaborated with Josuke against Jobin

smoky maple
old marlin
#

It brings tears of joy to me little heart when people say Jobin is the obvious foil to Jousuke

minor ore
#

Sometimes I forget part 8 exists

knotty mango
#

Yeah because it sucks

minor ore
#

All else > 8 > 1-3.

#

Sadly.

#

I do love some parts of 8 though.

viscid lintel
#

ok

versed mango
#

Parts 5-7 are my favorites

kind owlBOT
#

@versed mango, Your Stand Power is now level 8 !

old marlin
#

What is with the bad takes this morning

worthy coyote
#

why is jojolion not generally liked?

#

gimme 1 reason why its bad

plush jackal
#

boring stands WeirdChamp

worthy coyote
plush jackal
#

characters just dont exist after their arcs

worthy coyote
#

^good reason

viscid lintel
#

It’s not generally disliked

#

What gave you that indication

old marlin
#

Bad opinions

viscid lintel
#

^

#

Very

worthy coyote
#

whenever i see a ranking of the parts its usually low

old marlin
#

Characters not existing
Ojirou

#

Literally tho

viscid lintel
#

actually caring about ratings

old marlin
#

Theres only 2 characters that seem to have been dropped

primal grove
#

you see, it doens't matter if 99 characters come back

old marlin
#

Kaayo and Kyo

primal grove
#

because those 2 disappeared

old marlin
#

But listen

viscid lintel
#

Those are equalivalent to game journalists

primal grove
#

therefore, part 8 bad

old marlin
#

Mistuba came back

#

After years of not being relevant

primal grove
#

those don't count mike

old marlin
#

Shes relevant

primal grove
#

only the characters for my argument matter

worthy coyote
#

idc i was wondering why they think that way because i generally liked it

old marlin
#

Oh I'm so sorry Jammal you're right

#

I put it as my number 1 with so

#

It would be cool to see Karera again

primal grove
#

EW

#

karera stockdisgust

old marlin
#

Wh

#

Shes cool :(

worthy coyote
#

^

primal grove
#

she's gross as fuck

old marlin
#

She made Love Love Deluxe actually cool

#

How tho

primal grove
#

like, the only female that araki made so far that is actually disgusting

worthy coyote
#

?????????

primal grove
#

dude, she literally picks her toes clean with a napkin

plush jackal
#

karera toes

primal grove
#

in the restaurant

old marlin
#

It's not like she eats it

primal grove
old marlin
#

I can kinda see the arguement that shes not elegant or perfect like other Jojo girls but that doesnt mean shes on par with someone like ungalo

minor ore
#

For me, I just find it boring a good portion of the time.

#

But then it'll blow up and make me really invested in seemingly random intervals.

primal grove
old marlin
#

Are you one of those Wu fight haters rohandisgust

viscid lintel
#

Oh god

worthy coyote
minor ore
#

Nah I liked that one.

old marlin
#

Alright good, humanity restored

minor ore
#

I'm super interested in Jobin.

#

Me needy more Jobin.

old marlin
#

Me needy araki to call him the main antagonist already

worthy coyote
#

jobin has my favorite design of the part i just love how he looks

pastel adder
#

I really like all of part 8's character designs

minor ore
#

Same actually.

worthy coyote
#

For sure

old marlin
#

I like that they all look different

#

Instead of having the exact same face

minor ore
#

Thing is, 8 is wonderful aesthetically and the story is super interesting at times, its only downfall is that it seems so jumbled that the story loses impact in a lot of ways.

#

In my opinion.

pastel adder
#

I just finished reading what is available of part 8 yesterday and have a question on something

old marlin
#

What exactly are those weaker moments for you, if I may ask

pastel adder
#

Wtf is up with Tooru

old marlin
#

Shoot indub

#

Ohhhhh

#

Daaaamn

minor ore
#

Hmm.

old marlin
#

So far all we know is he got sticky fingers from Yasuho

pastel adder
#

His design is too cool to be a random ass side character

minor ore
#

Okay, well I'm pretty curious about the wall eyes.

old marlin
#

And maybe hes controlling the head doctor

minor ore
#

Unlike most people I actually loved Blue Hawaii.

pastel adder
#

That's what I thought mike

old marlin
minor ore
#

(I think.)

pastel adder
#

How close would you guess Jojolion is to a main antag reveal?

old marlin
#

The purveying headcanon I've seen is Tooru is the one who got the head doctor out of the Hospital with that stand

#

Very close or not at all

pastel adder
#

Yeah it does seem kinda all or nothing so far

old marlin
#

If Jobin doesnt come out as main villain in the next 5 chapters its over

#

Come on Jobin, come out the closet

primal grove
#

just wondering, but did any of you read part 7 as it was being released or did you catch up afterwards?

minor ore
#

As for weaker moments... I'd say stuff like the hairclip with Yasuho, the street stand arc, and the fight against Kyo.

old marlin
#

No way in hell did anybody in here read it as it was releasing

#

At the very earliest thats 2011

primal grove
#

because a lot of the complains about part 8 were also in part 7 as it was being released

#

no main villain for years

old marlin
#

@inner gust

#

I think

#

He has

#

Not sure

pastel adder
#

could the harvest roll us into the final arc or a main antag introduction maybe?

primal grove
#

hell, just the final D4C arc took 18 months

inner gust
#

What

primal grove
#

not counting TW

old marlin
#

Were you reading along with SBR?

#

As it was releasing?

inner gust
#

Nah im not that old but i dont recall part 7 being fully translated when i was younger

#

I read part 7 back when it was just finished iirc

#

In english i mean

old marlin
#

Ah aight my mistake

inner gust
#

But i do remember some brazillian dude who read jojo in English complaining that the last 3 volumes of jojo sbr took days

old marlin
#

But in fairness tho you wouldnt be that old If you read along with SBR, like at the very latest you couldve been 14 in 2010 reading along and be 23 by now

grizzled pilot
#

days lol

primal grove
#

that's kinda my point, imagine waiting for it monthly, just to get

kind owlBOT
#

@primal grove, Your Stand Power is now level 30 !

primal grove
#

chocolate disco

inner gust
#

Im 20..

#

Lel

primal grove
#

the fact is that 90% of the fandom never read jojo released on a weekly basis

#

they'd complain like crazy about part 7 as well

old marlin
#

Yeah that isnt old

inner gust
#

I just was into jojo as a baby

primal grove
#

literal years before we even see the president

#

literal 2 years for the final arc

inner gust
#

Ye

primal grove
#

reading for years just to have hot pants die in a off screen pannel

inner gust
#

Monthly manga man hahahha

primal grove
#

that 90% didn't even get it

inner gust
#

Hot pants didnt die off screen?

old marlin
#

@minor ore Those last 2 are relatively early on but I'm really curious what exactly about the hair clip is so harmful? It's relatively short, comes after, imo, a really good fight, and gives background and character to yasuho

primal grove
#

well, kinda-ish, you know what i mean

old marlin
#

That took forever to write my bad

inner gust
#

Its not

#

And its relevant to her character

pastel adder
#

This is the first manga I have ever been up-to-date with and the wait time is jarring

worthy coyote
#

same

minor ore
#

Okay, I liked that it gave insight into Yasuho. However, on my first read, I found it confusing and I disliked that it distracted from the ongoing conflict.

old marlin
#

...

#

But it came after the fight?

minor ore
#

Granted it wasn't terrible, but I would have appreciated more for Yasuho's backstory.

#

I mean in general, the conflict of the story.

#

I can see what you mean, I just found it boring.

inner gust
#

Being into a ton of manga is good for this reason lol

#

Waiting isnt too bad

primal grove
#

when you wait 8 years for a goddamn boat ride

inner gust
#

Lmao

primal grove
#

anything else seems lighting fast

pastel adder
#

Oh I'm now reading a bunch of stuff, JoJo was my gateway

inner gust
#

Berserk and vagabond are both like 90% done

#

So that shit is hilarous

#

So cucked

primal grove
#

i literally finished fucking high school and they were still in the boat

inner gust
#

Vagabond has 1 volume left of content from what my friend told me

#

Hahahha

minor ore
#

My plan is to reread Jojion once it's finished to take it all in, as a binge.

inner gust
#

Its fun to theory craft WIT DA BOIZ

old marlin
#

I dont really see it as her backstory per se, what it is is more so setting up her reactions to having people around her not be who she thinks they are I guess? Like right now in the story Yasuho's probably really going through a lot because of Rai's distrust of her and Jousuke's radio silence doesnt help that. Like that Hairclip story was hard to read for me just cuz it shows just how hard Yasuho has it even though she's generally a happy person, it speaks volumes to how depressive people are in real life.

primal grove
#

part of what makes reading as it is release good is the theoryzing

old marlin
#

I like Yasuho ok

primal grove
#

just like watching a series as it is released or reading a book series

old marlin
#

Jojolion's the only monthly manga I read

minor ore
#

Nah I can see what you mean, and I do really enjoy Yasuho.

primal grove
#

imagine all the discussions that the fandom had during D4C release

#

if we still talk about it to this day

old marlin
#

I read One Piece and MHA weekly

pastel adder
#

Was JoJo ever weekly?

old marlin
#

Yes

primal grove
#

imagine reading that shit monthy

inner gust
#

Yeah jojolion is the only current manga i read besides REAL

primal grove
#

it only became monthly in part 7

old marlin
#

Even SBR was weekly early on

primal grove
#

it was released every single week from part 1 till early part 7

#

over 20 years releasing it weekly

minor ore
#

Josuke x Yasuho is the first relationship in the series I really actively want to see prosper.

pastel adder
#

Damn

old marlin
#

Same honestly

primal grove
#

taking 2 breaks per year

#

araki is crazy

old marlin
#

Well aside from Jolyne and Annasui

inner gust
#

Araki has a huge staff though

minor ore
#

Oh shit yeah.

inner gust
#

Lucky land is big

primal grove
#

granted he took some breaks here and there

#

once some parts finished

#

sure, but they won't release anything without him

#

regarldess how big or small the company is

old marlin
#

Only a man who worked for 20 years of his life would create fucking Dragon's Dream as a form of Self Harm

primal grove
#

meaning he was actively working

#

like a mad man

inner gust
#

No I agree but his schedule is probs slightly worse than a 9-5

#

He has like 7 assitants for stuff

primal grove
#

look at this chart

#

literally no breaks from part 1 to part 5

#

every single week

inner gust
#

Hes also a once in a life time talent too

#

Tbh

primal grove
#

less than 10 breaks for the entire part of 5

#

took a break once it ended

#

same thing for part 6

#

araki is cray cray

old marlin
#

Is this why he eventually went on to create Poco Loco

pastel adder
#

I wish it was still weekly but at the same time this man needs his time

old marlin
#

Only a depressed person would create a man who had a personal life coach

#

24/7

primal grove
#

that's how he came up with fucking Loccobarocco

#

only a mad man can make this and think yes, this is a propriate human being

old marlin
#

That fucker has a name??!?!!

#

I completely forgot

#

Him and his fucking puppet

primal grove
pastel adder
#

The true main antagonist of Stone Ocean

old marlin
#

Poor Araki

#

Some characters he draws are like self harm

#

Like poor tom

primal grove
#

it's a scream for help

old marlin
#

No sane human would think of that face

#

HE GAVE HIM

#

A LEGO STAND

#

He needs help

inner gust
#

He likes whacky stupid stuff

minor ore
#

does araki do drugs

#

God I wish that asshole from the prison got his shit kicked in.

#

Excuse my language.

old marlin
#

Woah watch the fucking language dude

#

Not fucking cool

verbal walrus
#

how about them 4 balls amirite

rich depot
#

I'm jealous

versed mango
#

Hear me out, like I’d not be disappointed if I had 4 balls

minor ore
#

where can i find jojolion for a good price

#

otaku mode is good but like

#

anywhere else thats cheaper?

minor ore
#

Can't wait to read this

#

And hopefully see the homie Johnny 😤

viscid lintel
#

😳

#

🍿

minor ore
#

I'm so glad you reacted that way

#

Only tells me more

#

That's actually hype JOHNNY IS IN PART 8 LETS GOOOOO

#

have fun reading it! currently its my favorite part next to vento aureo

#

@minor ore

#

Wow really? Haven't heard that one yet

#

josuke is just a really neat character, he reminds me of myself

grizzled pilot
#

JJL is probably my 2nd or 3rd fav its really good

minor ore
#

especially how some of the panels belong in a museum

#

cause like, jesus lord

#

araki got skill

mossy robin
#

"He reminds me of myself."

minor ore
#

(He deserved it.)

mossy robin
minor ore
#

(Ok they deserved it less but still.)

mossy robin
#

Soft & Wet has probably one of my favorite designs.

#

And they chose the good color scheme for it.

minor ore
#

Damn.

mossy robin
#

Hurts more than one of Soft & Wet's punches to the head.

minor ore
#

Yeah, it must suck.

mossy robin
#

DUDE.

#

I...

#

I'm so sorry.

#

Here, let me hug you better.

minor ore
#

One day, when I have disposable income.

mossy robin
#

WHY THE HELL IS WEATHER REPORT LITERALLY MORE EXPENSIVE THAN LIKE.

#

A FUCKING NEXT-GEN GAMING CONSOLE.

#

WHY.

minor ore
#

Lmao.

austere minnow
#

when the heck did the soft and wet figure become 80 dollars

#

not even a year ago it was 50 max

#

stupid part 5 anime dragging all these fans in and making our figure prices go higher

tawny mist
#

I got my soft and wet figure for like 50 bucks including shipping

#

the fuck happened

old marlin
#

@minor ore he should be more expensive tbh

tawny mist
#

I remember the SAS for weather report being on the cheap side too

#

why is that other figure so expensive

old marlin
#

Because my boy deserves it

#

Annasui costing like 1000$ wouldnt be a suprise to me

minor ore
#

@minor ore ill go to japan next year and buy you it, just pay me back fam

#

LOL

#

jkkk, japan in 2020 is a horrible idea, its going to be expensive cause of olympics

old marlin
#

I uh

#

Didnt think about that actually

minor ore
#

yeah

#

im going to Atlantis Bahamas instead

#

ive been there like, 3 times

#

lol its nice

#

and relatively cheap

austere minnow
#

define cheap cause travelling in general is expensive

soft raptor
#

Cost is relative to distance usually

#

For a North America the caribbean will be cheaper then for a european

smoky maple
#

it's expensive to live

kind owlBOT
#

@smoky maple, Your Stand Power is now level 4 !

minor ore
#

@smoky maple facts

austere minnow
#

which in turn is why its expensive to travel

#

its like living somewhere else for a week for the cost of living for a month

#

if not triple or even quadruple the amount at times

minor ore
#

man with 4 nuts and amnesia tries to find past

smoky maple
#

Every student in school

true junco
minor ore
#

Jobin a good boy

#

dont @ me

#

Also Mamezuku too, tho he looks more native American then the Natives from SBR

true junco
#

Jobin is good boi

#

He lik beetles

minor ore
#

Indeed, he's a simple man he likes beetles

#

Also figurines, we stan a man child

#

who is concidered the main side character of this part

true junco
#

Hmm

minor ore
#

Hmmmm

#

Yasuho?

#

either mamezuku or joshu right

true junco
#

I really don’t know for sure

minor ore
#

yasuho is more of a love interest

#

Joshu then

true junco
#

Yeah joshu

minor ore
#

mamezuku has been in the part for like 20 chapters

true junco
#

though he’s been pretty active so far

minor ore
#

yeah that's why he could be the main side character

#

he's a pretty major one

old marlin
#

joshu "Mamezuku is the main side character"
joshu "Joshu is the main side character"
joshu "Yasuho's just the love interest"

minor ore
#

wait wait

#

is norisuke dead?

old marlin
#

Maybe

minor ore
#

i don't think we know

old marlin
#

I hope not

minor ore
#

same

old marlin
#

We saw him in the body bag and he was bleeding from the neck it seems

#

So only time will tell if hes on the verge of death or already dead

minor ore
#

i just hope he's alive

old marlin
#

Knock on wood I think it's some kind of illusion from Tsurugi

minor ore
#

i mean okuyasu survived fatal situations twice

#

that would be the best case

#

even if he's alive he's doomed to die imo

#

who do you think will die?

old marlin
#

If not Yasuho and Norisuke then idk who

minor ore
#

I'm not really expecting deaths here

#

definitely less than sbr at least

old marlin
#

SBR had what, 4 MC deaths?

minor ore
#

I'd say 3

old marlin
#

Diego
HP
Wekapipo
Gyro

minor ore
#

Not counting Wekapipo

old marlin
#

Maybe Diego doesnt count

minor ore
#

Wekapipo appeared the least

#

well he was an ally

#

I'd say all 4 count.

#

And was even ready to betray Johnny and Gyro in the end

#

Wekapipo was fighting for the MCs.

#

he said that in the final fight

#

Oh?

#

i hope it has as much deaths as diu

#

He said fv was winning so he'd rather be with him

#

or with diego

#

because diu has only like shigechi

#

Not sure

#

yeah it would make sense for it to be like diu since morioh and all

#

exactly

#

though we do egt more deaths for the villains here

#

most of diu villains were spared unlike jojolion

old marlin
#

Keicho was the only villain that died iirc

minor ore
#

yeah but that's because most villains became allies afterwards

#

keicho wasn't a truly bad guy

old marlin
#

He was

#

But he was redeemable

minor ore
#

i believe that if rhcp didn't kill him he wouldn't have done anything to josuke and koichi

old marlin
#

He was like 5 seconds away from rejecting Josuke's offer imo

#

Keicho really was dealt an awful hand in life, he didnt deserve ANYTHING that happened between him and his dad, yet that never gave him the right to murder an unknown amount of people in pursuit of a stand user that could destroy his father.

#

I believe he says it best when he's in a grappling match with the arrow, he says something along the lines of not being able to go back to the life he could've had because his actions in the last ten years were eventually going to catch up to him, and they DID when Akira eventually ends his life.

minor ore
#

yotsuyu yagiyama is one of the best minor antagonists

minor ore
#

i wonder why araki chose soft and wet

#

for the name of josukes stand

grizzled pilot
#

cause it has a nautical motif

#

and the word "wet" is in the name of one of his favourite prince songs

old marlin
#

Well

#

Soft & Wet

#

Is the whole name

#

Of that song

minor ore
#

yes

fast crow
#

How many volumes or chapters are out

#

Nvm I got it

minor ore
#

20 volume releases I think

fast crow
#

Wait are they colored?

minor ore
#

no only 15

fast crow
#

Or translated atleast

minor ore
#

Every chapter is translated

fast crow
#

Oke

#

Ty

tawny mist
#

New chapters usually get translated in a day or two

minor ore
#

Same day sometimes

old marlin
#

Its almost always same day

rocky charm
#

Plot twist: the translators we follow are Araki in disguise

#

That's how they translate and typeset so fast

versed shadow
#

Sup bois

#

How's it goin

old marlin
#

Going great tbh

#

I always get really eager by the beginning of the month since that means a new JJL is coming

versed shadow
#

Oooo, there's a new one coming? I've just catched up and i thought there wouldn't be another until next month

#

(i swear if jobin and or kaato aren't main antagonist im gonna lose it)

minor ore
#

Jobin's stand gets an upgrade: small brain

Jobin uses his stand in a really smart way that puts the main characters in a seriously bad position without asspulling new abilities: huge brain

versed shadow
#

^^^

kind owlBOT
#

@versed shadow, Your Stand Power is now level 1 !

versed shadow
#

Well we haven't seen kaato stand yet so that might be op as fuck

minor ore
#

True.

#

Kaato deserves better tbh.

versed shadow
#

Yeah

#

I think josuk8/josefumi identity mystery is one of my favorite mysteries in jojo idk why

#

I just enjoy part 8 a lot in general

minor ore
#

After I finish 6 I may reread it, I think I just kind of rushed a lot of it.

#

I really, really loved Josuke's backstory.

#

Oh God, and watching him finally give Damo his commeupance.

#

One of the best moments in Jojo.

versed shadow
#

Indeed

old marlin
#

What

versed shadow
#

I think I rushed part 6 as well but can't bother to reread

minor ore
#

My absolute favorite parts of Jojo are seeing villains get what they deserve after a long period of time has passed or they've been getting away with something for too long.

old marlin
#

I mean yeah crow, it's been heavily implied that Jobin uses his stand in a way that isnt exactly what his ability is

minor ore
#

And I was saying I think I rushed 8 a bit.

versed shadow
#

Oh my bad lol

minor ore
#

I'm sure so, which is why I'm saying I'd rather see that explored fully than him getting an upgrade.

old marlin
#

Also I'm heavily calling it
Kaato's stand is just Enigma but with Cards

minor ore
#

I see people talking about him getting one.

#

Lol

old marlin
#

Well I dont even know how hed get one

#

No I'm not making a joke with that

#

I really believe it's just Enigma with cards

versed shadow
#

Y rushed part 4 cause I wanted to catch up to the anime and part 6 because it was too confusing for my lil brain

minor ore
#

I don't either, that's the fun of Jojo.

versed shadow
#

Also yeah mike might be right

minor ore
#

Hmmm interesting.

#

Oh yeah, whatever happened to hair girl?

old marlin
#

Karera?

versed shadow
#

Idk

minor ore
#

Mhm.

old marlin
#

Havent seen her since the damo arc

versed shadow
#

Disappeared

old marlin
#

I believe

#

It's only been like

minor ore
#

Hmm.

old marlin
#

A few days since that arc tho

#

So she hasnt been gone for a while

versed shadow
#

Yeah but still

#

Its kinda weird they just placed her there to give us josuk8 real name and some other bits and bobs and then she disappeared

old marlin
#

Listen to this, this might give you some hope for her coming back.
She appeared and introduced us to Josefumi right? This lead to us finding out Jousuke's actual identity. Well Josefumi is also heavily connected to Kira, since ya know he fused to Josefumi, and the only other character in JJL heavily connected to Kira other than Damo was Ojirou. Guess who's important in the story again?

I'm not saying Karera's gonna have a larger role but the fact that Ojirou came back could very well mean Her and even Kyo could eventually come back into the story

versed shadow
#

Yeah that makes sense

#

@versed shadow, Your Stand Power is now level 2 !

minor ore
#

Hopefully.

versed shadow
#

Also can we talk about how dirty they did my boi johnny

minor ore
#

boulder

old marlin
#

Holy's honestly the thing I really care about in JJL, Jousuke is basically Kakyoin done right in this part, she was Josefumi's "image of happiness" like how Holy was Kakyoin's. Jousuke's entire drive is repaying Kira by saving his mother

minor ore
#

So let me get this straight.

old marlin
#

And I'd be really pissy if that wasnt resolved

minor ore
#

Josuke is Josefumi, with some of Kira?

#

Or is it more 50/50?

old marlin
#

Yes

minor ore
#

like 90/10 or some shit

old marlin
#

It's like 5050 on a molecular level

#

But Jousuke is base Josefumi

versed shadow
#

Yeah

old marlin
#

Since he inherited his body

minor ore
#

Okay.

#

Maybe I'll just go back and reread that arc tbh.

#

Where does the Damo stuff star

old marlin
#

Vitamin C?

minor ore
#

t?*

old marlin
#

Starts after Karera's arc

versed shadow
#

Vitamin c is actually a pretty cool stand

night portal
#

what i don't understand is what part of Kira Queen did Soft and Wet inherit from Kira? Didn't it say that the stands should fuse too?

old marlin
#

"Hato brought her boyfriend"

versed shadow
#

Yeah that

old marlin
#

That's the chapter I believe it starts @minor ore

minor ore
#

Thanks dude.

versed shadow
#

I dont see any killer queen in soft and wet

minor ore
#

Originally S&W only fused stuff, right?

versed shadow
#

Ooo yeah

minor ore
#

And this KQ has a lot of little bombs.

night portal
#

I thought the bubble part of kira queen was from Stray Cat though

minor ore
#

he can do the explodey bubbles

#

So I suppose fusing + destruction = stealing?

versed shadow
#

Ig?

#

Its kinda yada yada'd

minor ore
#

R A D A R A D A

#

flashbacks of chowder

versed shadow
#

Lol

old marlin
#

From what I remember the OG soft and wet could slightly combine things with its bubbles but after Josefumi fused with Kira Soft and Wet was able to use his plunder ability

#

So it's not like a fusion of the 2 it's more so enhancing the original ability of S&W

versed shadow
#

Yeah

old marlin
#

I had shit connection apolgies

versed shadow
#

I understood that og soft and wet had the ability to separate and unite things, cause of that panel with the ramen and the pepper

old marlin
#

Yeah that's what it was originally

minor ore
#

Awesome ability tbh.

#

Plunder is just hard to understand imo, exactly which concepts he can steal and not.

versed shadow
#

In that case could he steal someone's stand? I think soft and wet deserves just a tad bit more of explaining

#

If he stealed someone's soul let's say

night portal
#

if he took some physics courses he could cause some serious shit with that

old marlin
#

Plunder can only steal Physical concepts

#

Fucking finally omfg

honest valley

#

Relating to one person it's only ever been shown to steal things like Hydration and Sight and even Friction in EoH

minor ore
#

Death time

versed shadow
#

Could he steal oxygen?

minor ore
#

sound too

#

Friction was against Ojito iirc.

#

Ojiro*

old marlin
#

Oh yeah it was

#

Yes sound sight friction and hydration

versed shadow
#

Ok soft and wet is actually really op

minor ore
#

Yeah I agree.

versed shadow
#

If used correctly

minor ore
#

One of the best Jojo stands tbh.

old marlin
#

However as of late he uses his bubbles as physical abilities

honest valley
#

Time is physical according to general relativity so S&W could steal time.

old marlin
#

I dont think it's a case of araki forgot

#

Headcanon

minor ore
#

theoretically, with a big enough bubble, he could steal you (imagine in chills voice)

night portal
#

how long can his bubbles last for?

old marlin
#

I more so believe Jousuke just hasnt needed his plunder in a LONG while

minor ore
#

there's no u

night portal
#

cause if its a while he could just steal small explosions and yeet them into the enemy

minor ore
#

in josuke

old marlin
#

The longest seemed to be the Higashikata Garden

minor ore
#

it's josuke not jousuke

versed shadow
#

Josuk8 is going to steal time in the last battle mark my words (or some asspull like that)

old marlin
#

He chased Poor Tom through the entire thing

minor ore
#

i guess that KC theory could be correct

old marlin
#

I love that araki loved bubbles so much he used them 3 times

#

Did a part 6 stand use bubbles

#

I forgot

versed shadow
#

Can't remember in which other occasions?

minor ore
#

nah

old marlin
#

Caesar, Stray Cat, and now Soft and Wet

minor ore
#

yea

old marlin
#

Sucks

versed shadow
#

Oh ye

#

SHIZAAAAAA

old marlin
#

Cuz the 3 bubble abilities happened in prime numbered parts

#

That wouldve been cool if part 6 had it

night portal
#

don't forget Milagro Man and the financial bubble it creates

old marlin
#

Smart

#

Finger Snapping

#

Holy fuck

#

I just realized Milagro Man is bitcoin

versed shadow
#

What did ya'll thought jojos was from the random bits

night portal
#

you think araki has any bitcoin

#

or is he an altcoin guy

versed shadow
#

Maybe? Idk

old marlin
#

Doge Coin probably

#

The guys a joke

minor ore
#

Nut King Call is honestly really cool and I wanna see more of it.

versed shadow
#

Yeah

#

But we can all agree, fuck joshu

#

Beeeetch

old marlin
#

I know a lot of people who would disagree with you

minor ore
#

Joshu is best

#

Ehhh, i mean i hate him for the meme, he is kinda annoying but not that much, just enough of annoying

kind owlBOT
#

@versed shadow, Your Stand Power is now level 3 !

#

As a Jojo fan you either love or hate him.

craggy belfry
#

NOBODY HERE WOULD AGREE WITH YOU

versed shadow
#

Lol

craggy belfry

where the fuck is pulp

old marlin

Yes they would

versed shadow
#

I mean i dont hate him, just wish he was less annoying

old marlin
#

@minor ore

craggy belfry
versed shadow
#

Lol

#

That passione for Joshu tho

minor ore
#

Joshu's only redeeming qualities are his genuine love for and drive to help his family, and his cool uses of NKC.

craggy belfry
#

there's also the fact that he didn't sell out Josuke during shakedown road, despite the man coming into his life and margianalizing him

minor ore
#

Oh yeah?

#

I forgot about that.

#

Okay that's kinda cool.

lilac pumice
#

Remember when Joshu asked Kaato to let him suckle on her t*ts? good times

minor ore
#

Honestly Joshu is easy to like but his creep vibes against women are hard to get past.

versed shadow
#

Yeah, what annoyed me the most is thst he (more or less) tried to "rape" yashuo and that he is an incel

lilac pumice
#

well, tbh he kinda thought Yashuo was into it

craggy belfry
#

Moreso Less

old marlin
#

I mean

And she kinda was since she thought he was Josuke

I would wanna suck Kaato's tits too

ok that's enough of this account

lilac pumice
#

Dont you dare disrespect Yashuo like that

versed shadow
#

She is queen

old marlin
#

Who did

minor ore
#

Honestly I want Josuke to win, but I kind of want Jobin to win too.

#

He has semigood motivations.

austere minnow
#

Jobin gang all day

minor ore
#

And he's just compelling.

lilac pumice
#

Well, I think they kinda could come to an agreement if they weren't so stubborn

versed shadow
#

Nah, I'm rooting for my boi josuke, joshu is too much of a creep for me

old marlin
#

Rooting for Jobin hmmm

lilac pumice
#

Also

#

Jobin commited Tax Fraud

old marlin
#

More compelling motive than the main hero??

#

These kinda sound likem..

minor ore
#

No, definitely not.

old marlin
#

Like traits of....

#

Or a....

#

What's that word

minor ore
#

I just mean if Josuke dies or something, I'd be ok with Jobin winning.

old marlin
minor ore
#

Well, Yasuho moreso.

night portal
#

did jobin survive because they sacrificed that one bully kid?

versed shadow
#

Ehhh, its difficult to give traits of personality or motivation to a character with no memory

old marlin
#

COUGH COUGH Jobin Main Antagonist

lilac pumice
#

Nah

night portal
#

if so couldnt the family just ask the government for a death row inmate to sacrifice every generation

lilac pumice
#

Jobin is to obvious

old marlin
#

"Nah" joshu joshu

versed shadow
#

He probably is tho

#

Or kaato

old marlin
versed shadow
#

But she doesn't have that much of an op stand

lilac pumice
#

I honestly thought Tsurugi was the main antagonist but the last chapter kinda proved me wrong

#

But to be fair

minor ore
#

You know, I really feel like it should be obvious Jobin is the main villain. When did people realize Valentine was the big bad of p7?

lilac pumice
#

Tsurugi had some big Evil vibes

old marlin
#

When he raped Lucy

night portal
#

shouldnt kaato have a string based stand since she is AU jolyne?

austere minnow
#

you know, you can think of the death row inmate thing as a plothole but I can guarantee there's almost no IRL family that would think of that and if they did the government probably wouldn't go along with it anyway

old marlin
#

Nah actually during Civil War

#

Inb4 Paper Moon King Crimson

versed shadow
#

Well since the first time i saw him, was too obvious for me, ominous guy with some secrets motivation to sponsor the race sounds pretty suspicious to me

lilac pumice
#

Wait until Josuke plunders time

#

same

#

tbh

old marlin
#

I'm really excited to see the explanation of what Tsurugi did last chapter

versed shadow
#

Same

austere minnow
#

IF we get it in the next chapter

lilac pumice
#

I think he cant control his stand anymore

versed shadow
#

We might

night portal
#

what if Jesus was the main villain. he's actually a stone human in hibernation

old marlin
#

I kinda hope it isnt AU King Crimson but at the same time I would 100% be ok with it

austere minnow
#

Hey Mike do you think you'll actually LIKE Tsurugi by the end of part 8

old marlin
#

What are you trying to say Job

#

No

#

Not at all

lilac pumice

But more importantly, we get more OJIRO

old marlin

Last chapter humanized him a bit, so he's more likeable.

It makes me uncomfortable

But so far he's just been kinda...

@austere minnow what did you mean by "If we get a chapter"

"AAAA DAD"

yeah but, he's like 11

night portal
#

he's 10 years old

minor ore
#

Oh yea and when he tried to trap Yasuho into liking him.

versed shadow
#

I think he meant if we get to see the explanation in the chapter

old marlin
#

Crow me and my friend read JJL every single new episode and we give him the most disgusting, whiny, annoying voice ever

minor ore
#

Hahaha

versed shadow
#

I would love to hear that lol

lilac pumice
#

As it should be

minor ore
#

I can see that.

old marlin
#

Like I can imagine him sounding like how Magent Magent apparently sounds

minor ore
#

I was gonna mention that!

old marlin
#

But just way younger and way more annoyijg

ok I probably didn't type what I meant to say.
What I meant to say was, "If they cover what's happening with his ability in the next chapter"

I have absolutely no qualms with Tsurugi but I don't think he's my favorite or anything so I don't care if people shit on him

minor ore
#

Oh yeah, and I get that Jobin dressed Tsurugi that way to ward off the curse or whatever, but why has he been in drag for the entire part???

old marlin
#

That's why

lilac pumice
#

Remember when Tsurugi suddenly aged 7 years

old marlin
#

There isnt much else to it

minor ore
#

Ughhhhh.

versed shadow
#

That makes me uncomfortable as fuck

minor ore
#

I just

#

Yeah.

versed shadow
#

I feel ya crow

old marlin
#

It really does

austere minnow
#

pretty sure when he turns 10 they'll get rid of it, I'm pretty sure they say they'd RAISE HIM as a girl

versed shadow
#

Just. Unconfortable

old marlin
#

Especially since he doesnt identify with being a female

#

He uses Male pronouns with his family

minor ore
#

Yeah exactly.

old marlin
#

And only does it with strangers

versed shadow
#

Yeah just goes around being a dude in dress

lilac pumice
#

It's kinda a life or death situtation though

old marlin
#

Yeah I get rituals and stuff

#

It's just awkward

versed shadow
#

It's still uncomfortable tho

minor ore
#

If he wanted to be female I'd be way more cool but it's just odd. I really hope Araki goes with the "rituals are harmful when against medicine" route.

versed shadow
#

Or akward, that's a better word

old marlin
#

Idk how I'd feel about Crossdressing being painted as bad lol

minor ore
#

Forced* crossdressing.

#

Last I checked Tsurugi didn't want it.

versed shadow
#

Yeah if he wanted to be female i would be Gucci

old marlin
#

Ig that makes it lighter

night portal
#

he's just Alternate Universe Anasui duh

lilac pumice
#

I dont think he wants to die though

old marlin
#

Yeah he clearly doesnt

minor ore
#

???

lilac pumice
#

So he kinda accepts it

old marlin
#

In the last chapter he was a wreck because his "illness" was coming

#

Which

#

What was that

#

Idk If that was the rock disease

minor ore
#

Oh yeah.

old marlin
#

Because he turned old. Not rocky

lilac pumice
#

Also, how much time passed since the start of jojolion in universe

versed shadow
#

I mean, does the cross dressing really affect the illness? Just feels like a dumb ritual, hope araki tackles that

old marlin
#

Weve SEEN what the rock disease actually looks like and it looked NOTHING like with what happened with Tsurugi last chapter

#

Well the disease is said to only affect the first MALE of the Higashikatas

#

So crossdressing is to pass as female as to trick the disease/curse

lilac pumice
#

Trying to avert a curse by crossdressing

#

Yep

#

Sounds like Jojo to me

minor ore
#

^

old marlin
#

That's why he cross dresses and why Norisuke and Jobin apparently did as well

versed shadow
#

Ehhh, still feels dumb but ok, cause that's jojos i guess

austere minnow
#

I always saw it as "other cultures can be WEIRD" so I just ignored it

old marlin
#

It follows and internal logic imo

minor ore
#

Yea

versed shadow
#

Yea ig

old marlin
#

Like it makes sense when you dont think about it to hard

versed shadow
#

Like everything in jojos

lilac pumice
#

Also, anything can be normal since its an alternate universe.

#

Araki doesnt have rules

old marlin
#

Ig so

#

But it's not like

#

The most outlandish thing

#

It's even shown not to work

#

Like at all

minor ore
#

I suppose I'd like to see it at a sort of angle where it makes a comment on social stuff.

old marlin
#

It's a superstitious thinh

people actually theorize that all the time and I don't know why

Nothing about transgenderism per se bc that's not what it's about, I just always enjoy seeing authors comment on tradition vs. innovation.

it doesn't seem like Araki IMO

minor ore

Sorru for being late, I was a little busy.

wasn't it literally like 3 pages long

austere minnow

but it usually leads to outlandish things like
"EMPORIO IN PART 8"
or
"PART 9 WILL HAVE THE UNIVERSES COMBINE"
or people discounting that the Kujos exist in the SBRverse so that the Ireneverse can't be a connection

bruh, they all fucking die, (not emporio tho) and that's it

I also like that Araki isn't the type for fanservice, so although we don't see Giorno meet Jolyne or a "dead characters all meet" episode, we're also never forced to read chapters only showcasing big boobies.
