I'm about to start volume 62 and yeah, the part 5 translation has been pretty boring so far. Hella cool stand fights though. I think part 5's been professionally translated for an italian release, but I don't think I can get those digitally.

Well all the crying and tooth-shooting and stomach exploding might also be part of his stand, which means normal people wouldn't be able to see them. On the other hand, the restaurant is in Morioh Duwang.

unless this was the case.

On another note, I just read the ending of Part VI and I'm rather amused that Jotaro's death is exactly as Boingo predicted. Even if it was three arcs late. :allears:

Also, another fun fact: Josuke's favorite music artist is Prince, as listed in one of those little biographies that main characters get. 4 parts later, and guess what Jo2uke's Stand is named after?

I just reread the end of part 6 because I wanted to confirm that Jotaro dies with his head cut in half, and this page made me double down on the theory that the end of part 6 is the Steel Ball Run universe:



Since the fate of mankind isn't sealed and the universe changes the Steel Ball Run universe is born. I don't care if it's never even plot relevant, it's just too drat cool :colbert:

If there's one thing about JoJo that never stopped being eighties as gently caress it's eye-popping gore.

Also didn't Araki explicitly deny that Steel Ball Run is the result of the ending of Stone Ocean? I coulda sworn he just felt like starting JoJo from a mostly blank slate again independent from the whole universal reset ending of part 6.

^^^ I think there was a quote somewhere in All-Star Battle about the two Josukes being unrelated in time and space, but it's not entirely clear.

Araki definitely reset the universe so that he could tell a new story free of his previous continuity, but I don't think necessarily means that the two universes are completely unrelated.

Don't smoke, kids... Unless you have to.
Doesn't really matter though, since Araki could change his mind at any time. If he has any ideas that require the universes to be the same, he'll probably do it.

Close, French :v:

I was doubly lucky to get into Jojo when I did, as those volumes are hard to find and expensive now, the series didn't exactly sell well and the publisher stopped at Part IV.
Part V onward is being published by another publisher, but Part I, II and IV volumes are in some sort of limbo for now (Part III is getting republished by the new publishers).

Hmmm sounds like a pretty cool stand battle. Didn't expect that out of Gappy... wait what?


:stonk:

It sounds like Araki made the switch to Ultra Jump for reasons other than pacing.

e:After floating away into the ocean and unable to stop being a solid rock, Yotsuyu's penis eventually stopped thinking.

Gappy's already proved himself to be a hardcore motherfucker. Remember in the first fight with Fun Fun Fun where he keeps kicking that guy when he's down and insulting him, or in the Born This Way fight where he punches the poo poo out of that girl? This just cements it further that you don't mess with Gappy.

Also, I hope Norisuke isn't a bad guy. He seems like a fun guy, judging from how he jokes about Yotsuyu's lack of a dong.

It was a thing of incredible beauty.

Everything about what happened here was absolutely beautiful, and pretty much peak Jojo in the sense that it was a wonderful blend of "holy poo poo, that's hardcore!" and "what the gently caress, that's ridiculous!" And the mystery in this part is feeling really solid and interesting, even when crazy poo poo keeps being introduced.

Broseph Brostar posted:

"Sex: USELESS" indeed.

But seriously, these pillar man parallels are kind of crazy interesting. Maybe if you think that Steel Ball Run was revisiting themes and characters from parts one and three (the whole journey thing... Dio), Jojolion might be reflecting not just part 4, but elements of part 2 as well.

Probably. The dialog references Joseph's encounter with the Pillar Man, Santana, as seen below.
