The side manga is generally a lot more coherent than the novels and fills in some of the holes left by the series, such as the birth of Jolyne:

FirstAidKite posted:Doesn't Over Heaven try to characterize Dio as more of a tragic figure who, among other weird things, actually liked his dad? Sort of. The older Dio says that he sort-of liked his dad when he was very young for what he now recognizes as stupid reasons. I wouldn't call Over Heaven's interpretation of Dio "tragic." It's more than he's...mellowed since the events of Part 1, while still being clearly evil and somewhat insane.

I like to think of the Jorge Joestar novel as a completely unrelated work which just happens to have the same names as characters from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

lmao I just started reading about the Jorge Joestar novel and apparently the "GER saved Giorno from the effects of Made in Heaven" theory was true. Also it's not only Morioh who grows legs, but the Passione island headquarters too, holy poo poo.

Yes, there is one part dedicated to George II, the other half is dedicated to the author writing ridiculous stories about long time existing fan theories and they admit it's for fun and not meant to be taken seriously.

The idea that JoJo fans of all people are acting like they have standards for weirdness is hilarious when that's its bread and butter. "Four testicles? ARAKI, YOU'RE A GENIUS!" "Oh man, 36 Kars? Gross, this isn't my JoJo, never let this be seen again."

Little by Little is great, even if I don't get all the Japanese puns.FirstAidKite posted:What is this? It's a doujin where Pucci and Valentine join forces to retrieve every single Jojo from every arc and have a contest to see which arc's Jojos can make the best doujin of other manga. The art is pretty good and the characters are faithful to their original art style. There's a page every Jojo walking, which includes three Josephs and three Jotaros. I'd link to it, but I'm at work and it's found at the same place you'd presumably find Jojo yaoi.

Personally, I had no problem with CLAMP. Until I found out that the manga version of Cardcaptor Sakura had lesbian undertones between elementary students. Not to say that homosexual relationships are bad or anything. I just don't want to read about elementary school kids having them in a series about fighting magic card monsters.
