I do not get this logic. Speed King was utilized more than 90% of Jojolion's stands
He's one of the ONLY none Soft and Wet stands that got a stand rush lmao
speed king belongs to a guy who's basically the diego of part 8
comparatively it's under used
speed king gets used a lot, i agree with lis
Well yes if you compare roles all the time then it would in fact "feel underutilized". Jobin is a completely different character from Diego
jobin has done way more than diego plot wise
diego just introduced some corpse parts
thats about it
and killed wekapipo
Jobin's definitely a cool character, but Jojolion doesn't need him to be alive
He's in a fitting death spot
idk i just dont want another hot pants situation
Jojo tends to love specific deaths and Jobin fits one of the specific categories
jobin has so much he can still do
So did many characters and they still died
thats why im hoping araki did something different, learned from his mistakes
Also, it can't be a Hot Pants situation as Jobin's death is way more acknowledged than Hot Pants
Then good, Araki did something you didn't expect.
So yeah, his death would be fine as he had his speech, affected the plot, and did a lot with his stand. He's not even an ally either so he doesn't need a drawn out tragic death.
the best possible death jobin could have had is transferring the disease from tsurugi to himself
Nah
why not
Best possible death Jobin could have is that he unlocks the ability Speed King Crimson and he is about to kill Josuke on the top of a skyscraper in the middle of the night and he is about to deliver the final blow but he is struck by lightning and he falls off of the building into the black abyss below
it would accomplish his goal, save his beloved son, and have a meaningful sacrifice
Jobin did a lot of wack shit and even did decisions that would've screwed his family over. Hell, his actions will definitely negatively impact his family. He's a bad dude and karma bit him in the ass
...and thats why saving tsurugi would redeem himself
what he wants is to ultimately end the curse and let the higashikata family live in peace
He doesn't need redemption, he's displayed as an antagonist for a reason
Jobin's the same guy that was about to kill a defenseless Yasuho just to fuck with Josuke
Unexpected dosent always mean good tho
yes, so kino
He's not a bad dude, his philosophy on life is just unrealistic and dangerous
^
no hes definitely a bad dude lol
he has a good goal but bad morals and methods
He's got good motives but he is definitely a bad guy lol
I wouldn’t say he’s bad he’s more so harsh
But it was good though, it was a perfectly fitting point of his character to end. People just forgot how much he did in this monthly format
"Harsh"

He's a bad dude
I guess we just disagree
He's not a good person just because he had a good goal. His morals and actions are fucked up shit
Who said he was good
He's a bad dude
His mother kinda did it to him
Wouldn’t say he’s bad
He just learned do what’s best for your family
hes still bad, regardless of influence
I think that was more to do with the fact she found out where he was hiding the new rokakaka and considered her a threat
What do you think he’s done that’s bad
Yeah, and? Serial killers and even Kira Yoshikage had a backstory and bad influence
Jobin is still a bad person.
killed ojiro and his girlfriend
threatened yasuho
burned norisuke
Yoshikage and Jobin are two completely different levels lmfao
He also tried to kill her earlier on in the story not just the recent chapters with the toilet
I don’t think he’s bad tho. And kris was just mentally fucked tbh
all for the sake of his goal, still bad actions
And then he dies lmao
Threatened yasuho because she was stopping what he thought was the only thing to save his father and son
jobin is closer to valentine than diego imo
Nah, he's definitely a bad person. Jobin may have been influenced but he still ultimately became a bad person.
You mean in the dolomite arc,he only knocked her out and decided against killing her to avoid suspicion from norisuke
Still don’t think he’s dead fr
Sad
I don’t think he’s bad
Except he didn't threaten her. Earlier on in the story, Jobin was straight up about to kill Yasuho just to make Josuke suffer
If that's not fucked up then you're a little blinded
dude he's dead LMAO
Literally said the weak die and strong survive
Yeah, his morals are twisted
if we were to compare a fictional character to jobin best, it would be eren jeager from aot
not diego or valentine lol
When?
he got what he wanted lol
The Dolomite arc
Saddest moment in jojolion isn't actually jobin/rai/kei dying it's actually the fact that iwasuke doesn't get to be in the family photo
damn didnt even keep her alive for her own sake. harsh
Damn that makes him a lame tho
Harsh is an understatement
Didn’t he just incapacitate her doe
Yeah
yea the toilet scene was brutal
Do you think that’s just an inconsistency in his character? Cause he’s not like that from majority of what we’ve seen
If you remembered the arc, Jobin was going to kill her purely to make Josuke suffer
No. It's not. Jobin is consistently brutal to anyone that opposes him
No
anyone that infringes on his goals are an enemy to him
Not harsh rather excessively cruel and straight to the point in his dealings ig
He killed norisuke but instantly regretted it. Not exactly bad to me. Made a mistake
That's a markings of a terrible person
You can be a terrible person while having a semblance of care for certain people
Better alternative word I could use but can’t think of it
Ojiro deserved it
Agreeable
jobin still cares about his family and especially, mitsuba and tsurugi
he still loves norisuke he just had to build the resolve to kill him
Really? I do not remember that last part but I’ll check on it later then
Plenty of shitty people care about family or certain people. Doesn't mean they're magically heroes now just for having connections
Hey man he was just tryna make his sugar mommy happy bro
Ojiro woulda made him kill himself and his son
He’s not a terrible person. Just selfish if anything
Does jobin love iwasuke tho????
Nah. He's a terrible person lmao
Please anwser
This!!!!
I think so
Everyone hates that dog
HE IS A TERRIBLE PERSON
listen, i am a huge jobin simp and hes a terrible person
Smh he’s a simp
He has the best character development
i cant tolerate this iwasuke slander
Agreeable
Jobin has several traits of a bad person and he's an antagonist for a reason. Thank you for having that sense Zyro, because Jobin is a bad person

Jobin is a bad person
i think jobin is the best character and all but i agree with the majority of your points
hes not a good person in the slightest
If he's willing to kill his father to reach his goals he's a bad person
He makes me uncomfortable
Are u calling us stupid : (
he only cares about his family, and even then he prioritizes his goals for the sake of future generations instead of his father

how can you be uncomfortable around such a handsome boi
No. Just slightly blind out of fondness for Jobin. Jobin's a funny guy and interesting with a cool stand... But he's not a good person
Oh man and he instantly regretted it after
What a sad lad
acting on impulses
Yea
it was an impulse that helped him ultimately
I don’t think he is tho
He literally is
I’d say he’s more gray than bad
Nah
You can be a bad person while still aligning with moral gray.
Nah I said I don’t think he’s good
spelled out to us
He's a bad person
He built funny
Fair
I love how his introduction shows him to be so playful. He was even willing to give away his lambo and cut his eyebrow over a fun game, always quoting poems and having a good time
What a nice young man
I hope he doesn't have connections to rock humans
Just showed his true colors I guess
Lol
I’m sure such a fun guy would never
For example, if we didn't have that beginning Daiya arc, she'd be seen as this sweet sister that's pretty based with an underused stand
But then we see her true face
Big bruh
just not a good person 🤪
I keep hearing that so much lately
hato is like, the only pure higashikata child
He got rocked
Ikr
daiya, joshu, and tsurugi are all fucked up
Pun intended
He's probably dead
Yeah hato might be the only morally descent higashikata
nah norisuke is chad
He’s a chad but he was hella sus in the beginning
No
Who knows maybe we don’t even know what else Hato coulda done off screen
i consider tsurugi chad as well and a very good person but that would be a matter of debate
Norisuke?
Hato was spoiled
Iwasuke higashikata
Is Josuke even a good person? Yeah he wants to save his mom and he cares about people close to him but so does Jobin. Josuke hesitates more and shows actually empathy sometimes but I wouldn't fuck with him
Even then, she's not pure as she never really cared about Josuke or helping him out. Only really doing whatever when forced to. We just never had her as an enemy but she clearly fell into the morally bankrupt Higashikata cycle. She never stands up to Kaato nor tells the truth to her sister ever
But maybe that’s why she’s ok
he would kill me in one shot
hes the final villain so hes not morally pure
No
yea cuz she had her own life, shes more neutral
I don’t think so. Mainly cause Kira wasn’t really good either
Iwasuke is the main hero
He coulda just killed that baby that was chasing him in blue lagoon
@tepid nebula, Your Hamon Rank is now level 11 !
And josephumi felt like nobody cared about him anyway. That’s why he cares about holly so much. She was the on one who cared
or the kid
I'm talking about outside of Josuke. She fell into the Higashikata cycle as well
cycle of what?
josefumi
Idk killing a baby I don’t think many would do that. Like literally crush their head in a door too 
Ehh i don’t feel like hato was obligated to stand up to kaato,it’s clear she was uncomfortable and just didn’t want to be around her at all
When's the last time we've seen iwasuke
See this is why the "good character, good person" thing gets on my nerves
The villains probably would
Yea
Wasn't Kira not at least a decent person?
Kiras in a grey area
psychologically tortured a man into eating his fingers
The cycle of oddities and weird moral alignments. Hato in general is weird at least
He worked at a hospital so I’d say so
Such a sad life
aren't they all?
he is grey
ah i see
and was nice to Yasuho
Characters are too complex to be put in one of two categories tbh
But mean to Ojiro
that's what I'm getting at
I can agree
even josuke isnt 100% pure gentleman jonathan style really
He caught Ojiro nearly drowning an innocent woman
Well it depends on how deep you define good
The moral compass is infinite in size
they have multiple shades, they act differently to different people and situations
True but they’re all pure evil
LMFAO yeah true
their characters aren't just hard bricks that don't react and change
eggward you're not supposed to break out of character
Only cause of his mom I think
It's still crazy to me seeing the Joestar birthmark be spread around so much in Part 7 onward. The entire higashikatas have it I think
no why would they have it?
Wast he also a ship doctor too
thanks I'm glad I'm no the only one
Right, I forgot about the full extent of the family and whatever
I don't think they do
They did? Yeah I was boutta say so
Go back to the part where they were in their swimwear
Yeah. I think he was only a doc cause of his mom tho. But I could be wrong
I just hope we see more of Josefumi eventually. Him and Kira were the Jojo protags that got robbed
Might be right idr
they were so good. i love their chemistry
i do think we will get another flashback to them
Need another flashback arc
we need to know where the trio photo originated
Yeah it’s interesting discussing their depth tho
One at the end of the series where they fight AU Diavolo
and josefumis birthmark needs to be explained
After they kill him in a brutal near death fight they take the pic
like nothing happened
What if josefumis birthmark just a tattoo
I think that was retconned
Not sure
It might be a josuke hair think
Josefumi's Soft and Wet has a lot of potential that didn't get enough action as it gets phased out for Kira Yoshikage's version of Soft and Wet
i doubt why
It was never retconned
Just untouched for now
eh it was not very different from josukes, josefumi just had much better control, at a very fine level
I'm pretty sure it is different to some degree. We never see Josefumi exploding his bubbles do we?
...why would he explode the bubbles??
thats kiras ability?
Hold on I've come up with shitty theory: josefumi got the birthmark as a tattoo when he became an adult because he saw it on kira when he saved his life. Kinda like josukes hair origin
better control as how
As I said. "Kira Yoshikage's version of Soft and Wet".
Yeah if we get a another flashback we should see more about his family life that could lead to some answers
We have to get another flashback
Was it shown again?
Josefumi and Josuke's stands have a decent amount of differences even early on as Josuke can explode/pop his bubbles from what I remember
Just what I read a while ago
“It could also just be a drawing error or early design (Araki often changes characters’ designs over the course of Jojolion). Kira doesn’t have the birthmark in the same panel, even though we know he has one. The birthmark also isn’t drawn on Josefumi in the subsequent chapters he’s appeared in. “
Joshu is real???
it could just be inconsistent placement,like with kiras
Bad dog
Yea he could've just drawn the birthmark on the wrong character
I don't believe that it was just a drawing error and nothing else. As Araki drawing a family member without a birthmark isn't anything new.
Nah I don’t mean like that
I mean like araki just leaves it out on the shoulders sometimes
Ok
Pretty sure those had reasons?
They did
It was explained
I was just saying there's ways for non family members to get birthmarks
You misunderstand
I meant "Araki drawing a family member without a birthmark"
Ok
He's done it with Giorno and Josuke
And I'm also legally blind
I definitely believe Josefumi having a mark is significant
Yees
But maybe not... I hope it is
What if iwasuke has the birthmark
It probably is
To base so much on Josuke for Josefumi including the birthmark only for it to be a retcon is...

Unfunny
What if josefumi used soft and wet to steal the birthmark
And put it on himself
:trol:
I am serious 0.0001% of the time
I know
Or maybe it did mean something but he retconned it later

What if the birthmark is some construction paper he actually super glued onto himself
the birthmark exists outside of the calamity
Damn you beat me to the joke 😔
The birthmark exists outside of this world
Yeah it was there
i meant the base version of soft and wet that josuke inherited. josuke didnt awaken explosive spin for a while
Showing the birthmark in one photo is one thing, but showing it again in the diner has to mean something right?
But arak could always retcon it so idk
you cant just "forget" to add a birthmark onto a character, josefumi had the birthmark intentionally
What? I'm pretty sure that was an ability Josuke gets fairly early on in Jojolion. Like one of the earliest abilities Josuke has
Soft or wet
I am the shit post maestro
im really out of touch with jjl lol
I think that was just primary bomb
yea thats what i mean by explosive spin
sorry my brains foggy
but yea, i mean primary bomb
sorry lis, you're right explosive spin is technically introduces in chapter 1 lol
with the invisible bubble
soft
Someone posted a vid the other day which I was a bit skeptical of, but I think they're right
Have we ever seen the birthmark on Johnny, Holly, or Kira?
we couldnt see it on johnny because of his shoulders always being covered
No for Johnny
im like 90% sure ive seen it on kira
We never saw it on johnny or any of his family
She isn’t shown with it
Tbf there are a lot of shots where his onesie slips a fair way down his shoulder
Nicholas joestar birthmark reveal???
It's possible that the birthmark isn't actually a Joestar thing in SBRverse, like that youtuber said
It's a rock disease thing
then who would even have it?
Jkjk
Maybe the mark comes exclusively from Jousefumi and Kei got it through the same means Weather did
that would be interesting, i doubt araki planned that far ahead by covering johnny up
Yeaaah nah I don’t buy it
But we've seen a good amount of Kira and Johnny's left shoulders and NEVER a birthmark
Kira had a birthmark since the beginning of the part
we dont really see kira far enough for a birthmark
He had it one panel
oh haha disproven by facts and logic
All the other times his shoulder is visible it isn’t there
Oh OK then
I’ve checked
The birthmark shifts around on the shoulder when araki is drawing his characters
This shit's weird.
Sometimes it’s visible from in front, sometimes only from the top down
And it mostly stems from the fact that Araki doesn't want to draw it
Araki draws what he wants dammit
I feel like this is just an araki thing
Joshu has a birthmark
The moment he introduced the mark he had every Jojo start covering up their shoulders so he could forget about it
Where he just doesn’t feel drawing it
it would be really weird for josefumi to just randomly have a birthmark, it seems like it was definitely a tease for josefumi being a jojo
But now the outfits that "cover their shoulders" have very loose necks which SHOULD expose the birthmark
birthmark placement is very erratic
So we see him not draw them a whole bunch
Top 10 things araki doesn't like drawing
10. Avdol
Ok we're gonna skip a few
3. Birthmark
2. Nipples
- mystery man
Truuuue
I made a quick edit to my message
@frozen charm, Your Hamon Rank is now level 24 !
He doesn't like drawing Jojolion that's why there was a hiatus
Kei also has the birthmark
ok so i have a question about this
Idk I feel we’re not gonna get a clear answer as to what’s up with these birthmarks,unless araki reveals josefumi is tied to the joestars in another way it’ll always be a weird mystery
is this just one spinning thread that spins around the whole bubble at high speed?
The bubble is the thread
yes thats what im asking
It’s spinning so fast it looks like a bubble
Yeah
Uuhhhhh
Araki
They don't exist in this world
There are some that are bubbles and some that are cables
Duh.
He wanted a representation of the two sides of josuke in his stand ability so he drew that along with the split eyes and tongue
i feel like araki would have planned for josuke to have the spin right?
Don't forget split balls
nah double the balls for some reason
not split
Split
split penis
It would be hard to notice split testes
Joshu's
joshu uses nkc to fuse his cock onto josuke to troll yasuho
Damn
Only the balls were missing
5 balls
Joshu fuses his balls to Josuke and Yasuho wonders why he now has SIX
joshu just keeps on winning
Which character are the Requiem theories about? I haven’t heard any
the theory is that josuke will get king crimson
for no other reason than to fit the higashikata "king" stand motif
"new rokakaka gives Requiem"
locacaca 6251 gives requiem actually
Joshu will turn yasuho into a bunch of human lego pieces to save her from the airplane door confirmed
Absorbing more corpse parts wouldn’t do it cuz we already saw people with multiple parts right?
Honestly tho that’s how I see her not dying from this next calamity
its possible, the plane door will still hit her
i think whats more likely is joshu used nkc on the door itself
that way its smaller pieces
True
Tho idk how fast NKC actually is
I don’t think it’s SP speed so he’s gonna need to react fast
It seems like the possibility of people gaining Requiem does exist in the new canon since Valentine getting Love Train was a similar situation to how Kira got Bites the Dust I think
yasuho gets hit by the plane door and two seconds later joshu decides to punch it
neither bites the dust nor love train was requiem
and they are two different situations
one was the corpse, the other was stand arrow
Love train was tied specifically to Lucy steel embodying the corpse fully
I know that, but they are similar since both involve interacting with the “Stand giver” a second time
like jonjon said, the corpse was fully immersed in this world by lucy, its why valentine got love train
Oh I thought Valentine had taken her corpse part
Ok so I just started Jojolion and I got to the part where Johnny is trying to save Rina and George
good part
any questions?
Did he kill himself or did the corpse kill him
The autumn leaves stand killed him
He killed himself
What
And the leaves finished him off
Touched the leaves, moved the Boulder above himself
With the Boulder?
he got shot by tusk and he fell onto the leaves
Ah I see
the boulder was a rock human but thats a different topic
anyways, jojolion only gets better from johnny flashback imo
And now Yasuho is licking her elbow lmao
lol
Isn’t it like Kira got something close to Requiem but not quite, since the two Requiem stands happened when the stand gets pierced, but with Kira it was the user that is pierced. And the ability he got was also the answer to his problem like with Requiem
@minor ore, Your Hamon Rank is now level 4 !
Joshu requiem
yea basically, it was close
like a prototype for requiem almost
Same effect in storytelling terms
Villains gets big powerup before final fight
Except with requiem it’s more of the goal itself, rather than a means to a goal
i didnt think of it like that before, thats interesting
Do we know if Araki already had the Requiem idea by part 4 and Bites the Dust was meant as a lesser version, or maybe he didn’t come up with Requiem yet and would have made Killer Queen Requiem be a thing if he could go back
Does what I just said make sense
He didn’t come up with requiem until golden wind
It didn’t even really present itself until halfway through the part too
he only came up with requiem when the requiem arrow appears 
but fr, araki only came up with requiem at the last minute storyboarding because he couldnt figure out a way to beat king crimson
thats just what i think
not confirmed, in any way
But if Bites the Dust was deliberate foreshadowing it would make sense right
It definitely could’ve given him ideas of how to expand on the arrows further
Like it makes you question how many times can you shoot yourself and still get more power or what happens if you do shoot your stand instead of yourself
I’m pretty sure he doesn’t actually write as he goes since he already knew stuff like the story being multigenerational
And in part 4 Jotaro questions where Enya got the arrows
He’s admitted to doing so in part 4 and 5
The Kira escape where he uses salon Cinderella to change his face?
Wasn’t planned beforehand
Yeah I believe he still can add in things way later
But I at least think he had a lot of part 5 in his head during part 4 and made links to it
He’s definitely got an outline for what he wants in a part’s story but when he’s on that weekly release he’s got to focus on sequential storytelling week to week
Probably did tbh

What's the pronouncation of Jojolion?

Oohh
Thanks
I thought Rokakakas were dragon fruits so I got confused that my ugliness didn’t disappear after I ate a dragon fruit.
Gappy be lookin' hot doe 😳
live action jojolion

This month is correct
Milagro Man should've been Money For Nothing IIBH
Lol
I finally caught up to jojolion again, honestly jojos is such a roller coaster. Part 1-5 made me a homosexual, part 6 turned me back to a heterosexual, part 7 then made me a homosexual and now part 8 has turned me back into a heterosexual
This shits crazy
in conclusion: jojo makes you bi
Sorta
Why not be bi and get the best of both worlds?
Fun fact
Wonder of U isn't even an Elvis song
Ray Peterson was the first released version of it
Really?
Mhm
I ran from stone ocean. It's chill here
I have a feeling we might have a major character death in the upcoming chapter
And I hope it's not yasuho
I dunno. I want Josuke and Yasuho to have their happy ever after
It won’t be yasuho
Wonder of u is an elvis Presley song. I looked it up
Yeaah

It’s def an Elvis reference

cover more popular 
I guess it's like having a chocolate biscuit with a cream filling being a reference to an Oreo rather than a Hydrox
a what
Cookies that are just like Oreos but didn't become as popular and came out before Oreos
Oreo directly ripped off Hydrox because the makers were brothers
that's the main difference between the metaphors because Elvis' cover was consented
@minor ore, Your Hamon Rank is now level 8 !
We know that Wonder of U is specifically a reference to Elvis though because we see Tooru listening to that song on his phone
fair
cant wait for crazy train ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
tooru steals the corpse
yoooo
i like large fries>pizza mozzarella
hard one
imagine if the reason gappy remembers the man in the wall eyes is cuz the mystery man taught him the large fries song
i think im on to something big with my constant theorizing
Fr
I wish Mystery man was clarified
What if jobin hates large fries but not fried chicken
But it's likely an early Damo
the difference just feels too drastic to be damo
also, i was looking through a jjl theory page and stumbled across this again
why did the higashikatas have a prison in their basement again?
im pretty sure it was supposed to be yotsuyas room but that doesnt add up at all with the sailor uniform
TBH I WANT it to be a different guy too
because it is a different guy, its definitely not a damo retcon
^^
And yeah everything about this room is really weird
Like it’s implied Kira was staying there for a time but then it turns out to be yotsuyus room
But then it’s also supposed to be a prison?
the sexy posters, but also childlike dolls, but also robots? and a toilet?
and the obviously barebones bed
Yotsuya has taste tho NGL
why tf would yotsuya live like that
I have no idea
I think it was meant to be a temporary stay
so he didn't bother making it as comfortable as he could
“You where there before in that room”
who is he saying that to
i see
But then yotsuyu was also there...
why does tsurugi know so much in early jjl lol
oh also found this plothole
this isnt a big deal, but an interesting tidbit
this person makes a lot of great jjl analysis
they use a bit of explicit language tho so idk if i can post this
yea a lot of them make some sense
and ofc it also exposes a lot of interesting plotholes as well
That blog is rly good
ye,it’s got a lot of the inconsistencies and some neat theory’s listed
tbf, i feel like out of these inconsistencies, a few of them can be answered in the future
as well as some of them just being like, average jojo mistakes
Araki just isnt the best at writing timelines lol
Definitely
Oh for sure lmao
this part could possibly be explained?
it doesnt make sense that kira would have rokakaka trees tho
he didnt know about them until the events of vitamin c, and why would he graft branches if he had trees
yea karera doesnt really know about their operation
Shes been shown to lie multiple times in the arc
how she knows about the rokakaka or josefumis grafting is crazy
it could just be, and i hate to say it, araki forgot moments
but like, vitamin c is way too close to this arc
for araki to have just been writing the details out on a whim
and change them all
cuz why would karera lie? she has a crush on josefumi, and shes not affiliated with rock humans
That’s true
unless shes a hidden child of kaato(lmao) or some shit she has nothing to hide from josefumi(who she presumed josuke was)
But at the end of her chapter she implies she has other motives that don’t involve josefumi
really?
Yeah
interesting
Gimme a minute I need to find the panel
ye ye cool
oh damn forgot about that
She implies she has a deeper understanding of how equivalent exchange works and the she wants to “break away from the world” using it
that is sketchy af
Yeah I know
she also literally said she wants the rokakaka
to break away from the world? the entire world?
it would be one thing for her to say morioh and all
we definitely need to see karera more, something must have happened to her before that
Karera, Kaato and Mystery Man
yeah I got a feeling she’ll come back soon to explain this
We def need to know more about her motives
The Trifecta of "where did you go"
yea i thought she was just some innocent fangirl of josefumi until that panel lmao
U forgot iced out baby
damn im so glad im here in time before jjl ends, its so fun theorizing
O true the baby
I forgot this character lol 😂
i think a lot of the mysteries surrounding holy could be wrapped up with her stand
if its like, an information gathering stand similar to paisley park
Dababy less goo
Back to this chat now that SO is hell
Good move
I don’t like that much
but i guess it’s not true worst thing ever
And colored wou will probably look ok since we don’t see the full body in the newer chapters
It’s gold, so I’m happy with that
The pants r a little much but it’s still rly good
I think the gold is fitting for tooru
Unrelated but I was thinking back to how this line implies jjl from vitamin c all the way to now would be in 2012 and how wonky that is timeline wise
But then I remembered tsurugis birth year was 2002
And he recently turned 10 in the story
So..
Could this actually be accurate?
Earthquake took place only a few days before jjl events iirc
And so far it’s only been a few months since jjl beginning
So i don’t think it was 6 months
GG is 10 years old confirmed
📸 caught in 4k
nooooo
2012 already? That would be crazy
And also kinda fuck with the timeline
Having to remember specific years is hard enough for me already
Yeah it doesn’t feel like 6 months passed in universe
Having to remember specific months or dates would be torture
This might just be another timeline inconsistency after all but I wonder what that means for tsurugi
Well tsurugi is still 10
This is confirmed by his(very sad) line about wanting to live until 11
Part 8 is so good
most indubitably 🧐
Agreed my highly intellectual comrade
I concur
Aphex triplet is the main villain
iwasuke was a fusion of aphex triplet and a random dog
The timeline is always fucked in Jojo
Like I still refuse to accept that Golden Wind took place in 1 week
yea that was so stupid
Honestly GW taking place so quickly is a good decision when you think about it
It gives an excuse to only have 1 or 2 people in each fight.
By having them be exhausted from the previous fight/seriously injured, there's now a good reason for them to sit in the turtle until it's over.
but they go through SO MANY fights, how are they not incredibly exhausted by the end of it
They are mafiosos for a reason
They're mafiosus
*mafiosi
so u guys know how when it showed the family tree of joestars joseph, suzie q, and holly were in jojolion universe because in the main timeline they did not die. Am I right when i assume that part 8 and 7 take place before the ending of part 6?
@muted rock, Your Hamon Rank is now level 3 !
like when jolyne isnt named jolyne and shit like that.<that ending
No
Part 7 and 8 are in a different continuity/universe
There is a "similar" Joestar family with parallels, but many things are different
They are not connected to the events of part 6
its related to the parts previous to 7 tho right? just like in the original, the johnny or jonathan died and so did the dio
Where do you guys read jjl now
For instance, Johnny marries Rina, a Japanese woman, instead of Erina
The only thing they share are names and some occasional callbacks
There are parallels and similarities, but the actual stories are separate
i see
Unless there's some big plot twist down the line
so its just araki referencing for fun, nothing deeper than that right?
No those deaths were completely different in context of the stories
Especially minor references, like the Urvdol in SBR
Just some random who looks like Avdol
oh yea okay hes just referencing for fun then
Where do y’all read jjl now
when is part 8 gonna end
i stopped around chapter 40
I read on mangasee123
Correct he just references minor things from the past parts
Thanks
Somewhere from a few months from now to a few years
i see
damn tuff
Is mangasee caught up?
Yes
im prolly gonna start reading jojolion religiously like the other parts when its completely finished
Araki makes the individual chapters longer and with more impressive spreads in return for the longer release schedule
So I don’t think it’s a downside he takes his time
Does mean hiatus’s hurt more tho
boruto and dbs release monthly and their chapters are literally 20 pages long its bullshit and aot releases monthly and their chapters are looooooooooooooooonggg
Ueno-san wa Bukiyou has no consistent release schedule AND chapters are like 10 pages long
manganelo
Imagine not liking Joshu he is literally a god tier character
can i say spoilers here or nah
yeah you can talk about spoilers here
no spoile r pls im in saeson 1 🙂
I’m on episode one I hope nothing happens to Danny
Episode 1 of PB or SBR?
Yes but if you are in let’s say the golden wind channel you can’t talk about future parts
ah ok
Is it possible for Bae Nijimura to come back?
Because Jobin obviously is going to make a return so then they can make Kei Mamezuku
Kei is like, pretty much confirmed a ghost
She touched josuke was a ghost
Just like rai talked to josuke as a ghost
So if this "karmic retribution" thing is true, Kei died instantly when she pursued the Doctor, like the child murderer and Joubin
Does this mean Kei is a horrible person who's done awful things?
Oh and the reporter, too
She did directly attack the head doctor
I think the karma thing might only apply to situations the head doctor himself isn’t in
Karmic retribution shouldn’t have been introduced IMO, it just raises too many questions and doesn’t add up
But if you directly attack him, you’re the highest on the list
It was also dropped basically immediately lol
I can’t wait to find out what will happen in the next chapter
It existed for like 6 pages
wasn't it just Rai theorizing
It’s also made clear that calamities are unavoidable anyway regardless of karma so whatever
Yeah, but it's Jojo
^
It was a cool idea but it contradicted most of what we had already seen and all
Every time a main character theorizes what a Stand does, it's actually the author telling us the intricacies of its powers
Araki wouldn’t have a character speculate on an ability if it wasn’t word of god or intentionally a misdirect
WoU is wierd because the nature of the ability itself is the gotcha, not the effects of the stand
They should’ve taken Joshu and not Rai😔
Since the effect is just random bad luck and extreme damage taken
Wasn't Polnareff wrong about Hanged Man for the longest time until Kakyoin finally told him
I suppose so
Yes but Kakyoin told him and us about the true ability
Polnareff (and the audience) was thinking about the ability wrong
Kakyoin also said there wasn’t a mirror world, checkmate kakyoin 
rai was just hypothesizing guys
That's what I'm saying
Kakyoin was talking about the specific effects of the stand, since how could it attack from a mirror world
Yeah
and so was Rai
Man in the mirror doesn’t even do that it drags people in first
If the stand attacked from the mirror it would literally be invincible
But we don't get a scene of Rain being told "no it has nothing to do with karma it only has to do with how much plot armor you have"
From an in universe level and on a writing level, every stand has some sort of drawback
GER
until wonder of u that is
In that specific scene yes
GER is limited by the fact giorno had to get the arrow first and the fight was over when he did that
Wonder of U is just naturally this strong
Which is completely bonkers
Plot twist: Rai is right. Tooru is just big brain Sherlock Holmes and planned out every single "collision" that affected our protagonists
Wonder of U's only ability is looking like an old man
“Soft and wet plunder”
That would be the fucking worst reveal possible
It's like Khnum except way worse
So araki must do it
And Tooru doesn't need Thoth because he's too smart for it
He’s just too big brain
The teddy bear is the true user
Chat pursued WoU and got hit by a calamity
Chat dead
Teddy bear pilots Tooru
and tsurugis berserk stand is creating illusions of all the calamities 
im not right at all lol
That's why the child caught in the heavy gate was "seriously harmed" but only got "minor injuries"
no cause remember that scene with Tsurugi and the baby
if that was actually the case i would drop jjl like it was boiling hot
Anyway, real talk
that was definitely just hyperbole from the parents
because they didnt like tsurugi
If Tsurugi used Paper Moon King to make a whole bunch of things look like the Head Doctor
but also, i dont want to think about the possibility of it all being tsurugi after all
Would "pursuing" any of those make you be hit by Calamity?
well, its an illusion
why would it be the trigger for wou
the head doctors that kept showing up around mitsuba wasnt an illusion tho, mitsuba got hit by calamities
Because you think you're pursuing WoU, and intent does count sometimes
thats true....
The actual stand seems to use illusions too
yea, with all the different wou's in the sky and stuff
Damn I forgot that
So it definitely could be a global pursue what you think is the wonder of u or the head doctor and calamity
just know what
you just... know
I just really hope norisuke isn’t dead
what i dont understand is how those doctors at the assembly survived going to meet satoru akefu live lol
i just dont know anything, i dont get why tsurugi activated pmk
i think norisukes alive
Because you need to be attempting to uncover his identity or pursue the doctor himself
Or it’s because he specifically exempted those doctors from calamities
You just know that it's gonna be a huge reveal that we won't see until like 10 chapters from now
Because we see with josuke he can call the aggressive calamities off
I’m pretty sure Jobin didn’t kill him
thats true, he can deactivate calamities for certain people
I hope not
like yasuho with the eye contact
The attack didn’t seem fatal
its gonna be so kino
Idk about that
I mean he blew off one his hands
jobin def didnt kill norisuke. everyone in this arc has died very quickly and without a second thought. norisuke has been baited to us for 23 chapters
And eft him in a bodybag for 2 hours with no treatment
No the speed king attack on norisuke
yknow who else got their hand torn off? 
joseph
jk jk
I still dont get this panel
I’m afraid Norisuke just doesn’t have Joseph level plot armor 😔
nobody does tbh
I suppose there's a difference between "pursuit" and just "approaching"??? Because he specifically asks the reporter "are you pursuing me" and the reporter says "yes".
But then Mitsuba, who didn't even approach him, she just said "wait why TF is he here" got hit so hard.
This shit confusing
we dont know what anything about that flashforward means
yes definitely
If he’s still alive he doesn’t have much time left
Jobin is 100% dead
we dont even know wtf is going on in the flashforward as of yet
they are all calm, tsurugi is fine, joshu has his arm
Joubin is 98% dead
jobin and mitsuba arent there
kak also didnt get a soul rise
we don't need to see that shit this is Jojolion
dude did you see kei and rai?
I doubt be is gonna have a soul rise as he was kinda a villian and villians never have soul rises
Yeah that's because Kakyoin survived/s
ghost hands yeah
Gyro got a Soul ride?
Sounds like fun
Is that when you have the Goddess of Victory on your saddle?
plot twist: the flashforward is actually exactly like the events of made in heaven
tooru will evolve his stand to gain made in heaven, accelerate very far, tsurugi stops him
then everyone who died(even joshu
) will be revived without any memories, that would explain why everyones nonchalant
DaGappy
Dagappy
And then Joubin kills Norisuke again anyway
yes

who says ojiro cant still happen
Well there was Doppio his soul rise
Guys josukes bubble wont hit tooru until chapter 119
cant wait
Don’t jinx it
gonna be epic when the bubble finally hits tooru in 2025
He was an exception
Oh
after josuke fends off the 200 more rock insects inside wonder of u's coat
13 chapter flashback was already confirmed in Araki's interview earlier today
wait what
I'm joking
forgot the interview was out today
I hope.
ik ur joking but does anyone have an interview link?
Oh yeah araki was doing an interview today
cuz he might talk about jjl idk
Yeah, ,I couldn't find one earlier
The araki award started today
U can send in manga
And araki will rate it
And shounen jump will give it the araki award

Apparently Ultra Jump is establishing an "Araki Hirohiko Manga Award" in which you can submit a manga to be judged by Araki. You can submit something for the next almost-5 months. https://t.co/VnlqUQg6oT
