So the guard rail eats people, right? I guess now we know where the bite marks come from.Gyro Zeppeli posted:If that comes off, I'm gonna find the person who came up with it and start a loving religion in their name, because it's such a long shot. It's not really that much of a stretch, look closely at Fumi's clothing and bag on the first page.

It has eyes, explaining the Wall Eyes. It has teeth, explaining the bite marks. Gappy is Josefumi Kujo and Yoshikage Kira combined, explaining all the weird physical stuff on him. We weirdly have a lot of the mystery already explained now.

I wonder how a part composed of nothing but these weird mystery stands would be? Cause I enjoy chapter like this and Milgaro Man. Make it some sort of Cryptid hunter series or something. Let's get the stand equivalent of Mothman.

i mean yeah, at this point it's pretty obvious that 'joseph'/fumi has a relation to johnny if only due to the details of the steel ball run logo in multiple spots and him looking kinda similar in various ways. that kind of thing is pretty intentional. also worth a reminder that johnny has light-colored hair in comparison to like most any of the other people depicted in that area, so fumi having that alone is a dead ringer. araki is very definitely setting up Something here and we're going to get some kind of fittingly bizarre answers to a question or two even if it might not have been what we were initially expecting. like, this 'radio gaga' rail thing is out of left field but it's so incredibly specific in what it does that there's going to be a reason for it

I doubt this is going to explain the inexplicable flashforward but I wasn't expecting an explanation for the start of the story either so it'd be pretty fantastic if he pulls that off. If he goes even further and fills in all the holes I'll lose my drat mind.

I don't think we're going to get every hole filled in (remember Karera? Cuz Araki clearly doesn't!) but this does seem to be going a good way to explaining what the gently caress happened to cause all this poo poo to be in motion in the first place.

Excellent chapter with interesting implications, though the fact that it’s the second to last one is kinda weird. And while I’m down for Thus Spoke Lucy Steel and all, at the very least I want some kind of resolution to Holly.

Karera’s not really a plot hole to be fair. She just kinda hosed off since her plot relevance is finished.

Wasn't Karera involved with the Rokakaka smuggling somehow? I really need to reread JoJolion, feels like I'm forgetting half the plot points.

What happening in that last page? Is Lucy being torn apart or was the guardrail peeled somehow and it’s full of flesh?

I wouldn't read too far into this one, I think it's more just a quirk of Araki's artstyle.

It was a gif overlaying the flashback man's face on someone's eye from the new chapter, because of Araki's famously distinctive and unique faces since steel ball run

Cause I'm starting to think Lucy Steel and the Speedwagon Foundation hired them to get the fruit causing the main conflict of Jojolion. Money, mostly, though Dr. Wu wanted to use it for medicine and Urban Guerilla said it would make the rock humans ascendant over humanity TheLoneStar posted:Wasn't Karera involved with the Rokakaka smuggling somehow?

RatHat posted:What happening in that last page? Is Lucy being torn apart or was the guardrail peeled somehow and it’s full of flesh? I read it as that's the skeleton + guts of the driver who got sucked in earlier. First the guard rail catches your clothes, then sucks you inside of it, compressing you down and crushing you.

Where do you guys usually read this? I was using jojolionmanga.com but the last page of the manga is getting an imgur upload error and I'm dying to know what the gently caress is happening.

Incidentally, this chapter has a really good translation in which I clearly understood everything that everybody was saying, which is a first for a JJBA scanslation, so kudos to someone out there.

I decided to reread JoJolion since it's ending next month, and I gotta say I really miss Josuke needlessly stating the exact measurement of objects and distances. I also forgot how severely Joshu was unhinged compared to how he was in further arcs. Dude seems like he can barley function in the first few chapters.
