Part 1: 5 volumes

Part 3: 16 volumes
Part 4: 18 volumes
Part 5: 17 volumes
Part 6: 17 volumes
Part 7: 24 volumes
Part 8: 7 volumes and counting

Parts 3-6 are roughly the same length in terms of volumes but 4-7 feel like they have more content because the battles become a lot more imaginative. If they would animate everything in the same painstaking detail as in Part 3, they would probably be significantly longer.

Worth noting that the volume numbers are going to keep increasing per part now that the parts are usually double the amount of pages than before because it went monthly, and it's not necessarily an indicator that these parts are longer than the ones before. I don't know if it's true, but part 7 feels shorter than parts 4, 5 and 6 from memory.

Once the next two are revealed, it should be pretty obvious what Dio's stand is called.

But as we've seen, the stand names don't really lend themselves to what they actually do.

(Hint: Think about Dio's band and it may or may not be related)

I'm just making references to Holy Diver by Dio. I haven't ever put any spoilers down nor intend to talk about the future until the anime gets there. (I also only know about bits of the rest of Part 3 due to the OVA I saw ages ago and bits and pieces of the next few parts like the main jojo and what their stand can do)

Well, I don't think it's really a spoiler that each part revolves around the generations of the Joestar bloodline. Which is why ages ago I wondered why I got probated for saying everybody in this part is probably not alive in part 8 due to it being at least 5 generations later. Just like everybody in part 1 isn't alive anymore due to it now being 100 years later.

I say this not actually knowing that this is the case, just assuming based on its history rather than what I and everybody else in this thread knows.

This thread exists separately from the Jojo franchise megathread mostly out of consideration for people going in unspoiled. You might think it's a bit strange for people to be really strict about spoilers, but again it's just a matter of being considerate.

Spoilers aren't really that big a deal, no, but holding back on them isn't all that much to ask either.

(very non-specific manga spoiler, mostly just tagging to be on the safe side)

There's actually a big thing that happens later on that will probably explain why you got probated for that. Ask in the manga thread if you want to know, because it's an incredibly huge spoiler for 6/7/8.

How come Joseph hasnt taught Jotaro the Ripple? Does a 70 year old man think he can handle DIO on his own?

Basically I want Joseph to punch a frog.

Because Ripple is out. Seriously, outside of some cameos, we probably won't see it again.

I get that its out for the series, but it makes no sense that Joseph is going to fight a vampire dude and isnt interested in teaching him the Ripple.

At least give us a scene where he punches Jojo and it doesnt kick start it or something.

Babysitter Super Sleuth

my posts are as bad the Current Releases review of Gone Girl

Because the ripple is absolutely useless against stands and Joseph probably figured it was more effective letting Jotaro hone the use of a stand that could smash Dio to bits through raw force than teaching him a skill that he would never use more than once.

E: like Joseph probably totally was going to teach Jotaro the ripple until he saw how ludicrous Star Platinum was and figured "know what, that'll do fine, I forgot most of that poo poo anyway"

DIO has a Stand. Why would Jotaro need to learn the Ripple when he could just beat up DIO's stand?

And for that matter, you're forgetting three very important things:

1. Joseph hasn't used the Ripple in 50 years and says as much in the Empress episode.

2. Joseph has never been good at making the kind of strong Ripples that Jonathan has, always relying on guile strategy to beat his opponents. Jotaro's Ripple wouldn't be all that strong as a result, and then he'd have to add weapon training on top of that to make up for it like Joseph did.

3. When during all of the Stand battles is Joseph going to find time to teach Jotaro how to use the Ripple proficiently, especially when he only learned how to master it by being throw into a large pit and forced to climb a giant pillar before training for a month nearly nonstop?

Also Joseph isn't exactly a ripple master like Zeppeli or Lisa Lisa. Just because you have a certain skill doesn't mean you can teach it to others, especially if you haven't really practiced it in years or even decades.

The whole spoiler thing is so hideously blown out of proportion in recent years. I get not wanting to know every single twist and turn of a story, but Jolyne's identity is literally the description of part 6, Not to mention that this is entire series is basically one long family chronicle to begin with.

On the other hand: there's literally a thread where you can discuss all the spoilers to your hearts' content, there are indeed some folks who don't want to know any of what's coming up. This is not a big deal or particularly hard to accommodate! It's barely even an inconvenience seeing as how, again, there's literally a thread where you can talk about the Dark Secret of Dio's Taint to the end of time.
