Just remembered the time when Gyro fought Chocolate Disco and Gyro was so incredibly done with this poo poo that he just destroyed the guy instead of having a full on fight with him.

Sacre vert! Maman!

Chocolate Disco is such a weird fight. It comes out of nowhere and ends just as quickly, and the story doesn't even bother to give you any information about the guy.

Speaking of Arabia Fats. They could have recruited him and just made him use his stand when DIO was around. DIO turns to dust, bing bong

Araki chooses the colors for the volume art right? The color choices on the volumes have been consistently excellent. The artwork always emits so much energy.

sure hope no-one throws me off a bridge

Holy poo poo, a chapter that actually moves the plot on by a good deal.

So her stand is named Space Trucking, and Tooru has been taken care of because he just got baited into doing an equivalent exchange with Tsurugi. Kaato loving rules.

"Inca no mezame potatoes". You deep fry them straight into cooking oil without any batter. You don't boil the inca no mezames... once the deep frying is done, you toss them into a stew. You peel and cut that variety of potatoes, that is the recipe I use when I make cream stew. I've been living at an apartment I rented nearby, so I brought a full pot of cream stew I made over.

That was an extremely jojo moment. Just a grandma in a bikini walking up to some dude bleeding out on the floor, telling him her potato recipe.

Alright. I got disappointed by ice bike lady's return.

But not by this one. Holy poo poo. I love everything about this

Rule-lawyering Wonder of U because she's technically not harming Tooru

Chucking my petrified grandson at the idiot loaded up on magical exchange fruit juice

The statement "It goes without saying that your family's prosperity outweighs ethics"

But, in some weird way, my favorite one is kinda another magnificent way of jamming "king" into a stand name :allears:

Kaato just wrecking Tooru in one move has a lot of the same energy as when Hato stomped all over Damo

I love it



Also I was really terrified that Araki brought Kaato back just to kill her off like Nijimura, so glad it didn't happen

Honestly I was expecting her to throw Jobin into Tooru, but Tsurugi is much better. He's kind of been built up as a weird pseudo villain, so I'm hoping him + Tooru along with Kaato wind up somehow being the final big bads to fight. Although not sure WHY they would fight Josuke and the gang at this point, but it'd be rad and that's all that matters.

Unless Jojolion is wrapping up and this is like, the end now. Tsurugi gets "cured" to end the Higashikata curse, all the rock dudes are dead, I think the only remaining loose end is Josuke's mom? Kaato could just go "oh yeah here's part of the plant I hid between my cards, use it to fix up your momma" and then we're gucci, I think? Hope not, but I could see it happening.

How does Araki make those huge landscape 'shots'? That must take forever. Is there some kind of cheat behind that?

Assistants often do backgrounds, and sometimes backgrounds are "mangafied" photos, for want of a better term.

One example of that in JoJolion is during the Damo fight, where the door handle is obviously a photo that has been edited to look drawn.
