Thus spoke kishibe rohan is canon
silk sand
what novels are canon?
I could say that "the Book" and maybe Purple Haze Feedback
hidden skiff
CDDH, PHF, GHGR, Jorge Joestar, and a buncha others aren’t canon.

Thus spoke kishibe rohan is canon

fierce condor
Jorge goes against canon a lot of the time

Doubt it

The part 3 one

If it’s not written by Araki, it’s not canon.
Most likely at least.
I mean, there’s exceptions like Rohan Au Louvre.
silk sand
If it’s not written by Araki, it’s not canon.
I think that may not be a real statement to deny something
I mean Purple Haze Feedback could completely be canonic
fierce condor
I think that may not be a real statement to deny something
That’s how canon works
If it’s not author written or author confirmed, it’s not canon
silk sand
That’s how canon works
Not neccesarily
hidden skiff
I mean Purple Haze Feedback could completely be canonic
It conflicts with backstories iirc.
fierce condor
Not neccesarily
Yes it is
hidden skiff
Or time dates.
hidden skiff
well that's true
And it’s not written by Araki either.
fierce condor
but part 4 novel
No
silk sand
and well, I dont really know about this novel
hidden skiff
but part 4 novel
Not canon either.

@silk sand, your Stand Rank is now 3!
silk sand
but I have heard about this
fierce condor
Not neccesarily
How do you think canon works?
hidden skiff
Is there a Lisa Lisa novel
There is one but it’s not canon either.

How do you think canon works?
Like for example DBS is written and drawed by Toyotaro, not by Toriyama and is completely canonic

Did toriyama confirm it as canon?
If so, then that doesn’t go against what I said earlier
silk sand
Did toriyama confirm it as canon?
yes

For JoJo’s, if it’s not written by Araki or isn’t a collab written by him, then it’s not canon.
silk sand
Author approved or author written
the jojo novels some of those dont make sense, I know, but Araki has not said "it isnt canonic" to most of them
Genesis of the future was somehow drawed by Araki and we still dont know about its canonity
fierce condor

Yeah but did he say it was canon?
hidden skiff
Basically any novel not written by Araki also conflicts with things.
fierce condor
It has to be stated canon
hidden skiff
I think you just need to accept that it’s not canon until confirmed otherwise.
silk sand
Yeah but did he say it was canon?
he has not aproved or denied
fierce condor
he has not aproved or denied
So it’s not canon
hidden skiff
It’s not canon and that’s all there is to it.
fierce condor
If he says nothing about it then it’s just not canon
silk sand
So, asides Crazy Diamond Demonic Heartbreak, is there another jojo spin off
fierce condor
Thus spoke is the only canon spinoff as far as I know
silk sand
and does Demonic Heartbreak is canon, because some details in it makes no sense with some stuff in part 4
silk sand
When I was reading it, it say that it was the first Jojo canon spin-off
fierce condor
Where?
silk sand
In mangadex
fierce condor
When I was reading it, it say that it was the first Jojo canon spin-off
Ignoring tskr is crazy

Ignoring tskr is crazy
what do you mean by that?
fierce condor
No
silk sand
because i doubt it
fierce condor
Pretty sure the only canon jojo spinoff is Thus Spoke
hidden skiff
Yes.
silk sand
Pretty sure the only canon jojo spinoff is Thus Spoke
most probable option

Hey everyone, lately I have been interested a lot in all the secondary material ...
all spin-off works that aren't directly written by araki himself are generally considered "non-canon", araki doesn't need to deconfirm every official side work one by one because there's a shit load and it would be a needless hassle
araki doesn't need to go out of his way and confirm that eyes of heaven's story mode isn't canon
a spin-off story not conflicting with the plot of the original part doesn't make it automatically canon, it just means it doesn't have any issues slotting into that other story in people's heads
you can consider it "canon" in your mind, but as long as araki hasn't directly accepted it into the lore of jojos, it will remain as just a separate story written by another author that you can consider canon if you want to

even then, some works that araki himself made like "rohan au louvre" and "jolyne, fly high with gucci" blatantly conflict with the plot of the original parts, like rohan saying that he had heaven's door from birth during rohan au louvre eventhough it was stated in diamond is unbreakable that he got his stand from keicho's arrow, and the setting of fly high with gucci not fitting with stone ocean's plot at all and all the characters like bucciarati and polpo having wildly different personalities from the original parts (also bucciarati and polpo are both alive lmao)
