An alternative reading of Jesus' name being Joshua bar Joseph has always been my favorite tidbit from that page.

I still think Araki missed a trick in not just straight up giving Jesus the Joestar birthmark, then never following up on it at all.

I am glad SBR might have been inspired by Trey Parker and Matt Stone's musical, The Book of Mormon.

I'm partial to this one, if only for how great the ability name Fall Of Disco is. This is my favorite part of the Jesus page though.  I'm glad Blackmore found Jesus.

Jesus could walk on water and heal people because he was a hamon master and his stand let him transmute and duplicate matter (turning water into wine, making more fish and bread). It would be called something crazy with absolutely no relation to religion. Like 「Weird Science」or 「Hang 'Em High」(ok that last one is related but still)

I was throwing around the idea in my head earlier today of a JoJo prequel series that involves Joshua bar Joseph as a young man going around the Levant fighting and helping people who have been possessed by all the djinn after the Romans uncover King Solomon's treasure vault. Then I remembered that I'm just some tool and fanfiction sucks and I got very sad. And that's my JoJo story thanks.

(Josefumi > Jyosefumi because the passport has Jyosefumi even though that's probably more Araki not knowing his romanisation too well. Ala Cujoh) He's also slowly working on the Part 4 spin off novel slowly.

Isn't Cujoh the Americanized name Jotaro changed to when moving to the west? ASB spells it Kujo for Jotaro and Cujoh for Jolyne.

Probably, but it doesn't really erase that Cujoh is just sort of wonky romanisation anyway. Jotaro is never referred to as Cujoh or stated to have used it, but Jolyne is. It's probably a "legit" translation, but you'd have to question if it would have ever come into play if Araki had excellent English. Maybe it would, but it's still just pretty wonky. e:

I always thought Cujoh was a sort of intentional misspelling like happened at Ellis Island. Like, on her birth certificate it says "Cujoh" because an American nurse was lazy and filled it out wrong.

Well it's not rare for foreigners moving to a new country to change the spelling of their name (or even the entire name) so the locals have less of a hard time understanding it.

Maybe Jolyene uses her mother's last name which just happens to also be Cujoh?

He does have "not foul" alternatives though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqcBr5dFAdY More tournament stuff too. I don't think it's meant to be the final round though and is introduced as "Story Introduction". Josuke Higashikata fucked around with this message at 11:06 on Nov 27, 2015 |

They're playing through the start of story mode on the stream right now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqcBr5dFAdY e: The Jotaro + Pol DHA is amazing.  And it's done. Only 28 or so minutes. Well worth catching the VOD of this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ws0UuiF53bw VOD here Josuke Higashikata fucked around with this message at 14:24 on Nov 27, 2015 |

I'm probably the only person who actually is looking forward to EoH and thinks that the newest demo was actually pretty fun. Getting pumped watching the character vids.

I just like sharing it as it does no harm, having played the demo I can't say it's something I'm hugely looking forward to but the story mode does look fun to the point of thinking it should really have been the main focus of its marketing.

I''m p much feeling the same way. I've played the demo more than I should have and the game might be a bit better than ASB, but I'm mostly looking forward to the unique stuff they added for this game like character specific dialogue, the story mode, and the unique GHAs. The prospect of actually playing it is not a pleasing one.

It looks like fun to me and I'm lazy about tracking down actual videos so it's easier if it's here for me, personally. I'll see stuff giffed elsewhere soon after but rarely full videos linked.

Wouldn't the Nazis awake the pillarmen without Jonathan not destroying the mask immeditaly? The series would probably have Caeser, Zepelli, Straightzou and Strohiem trying to fend them off

The Pillarmen were going to awaken in 1938 anyway, if I recall correctly. The Nazi's just hurried up the process at best.

The series would probably have Caeser, Zepelli, Straightzou and Strohiem trying to fend them off Speedwagon wouldn't have uncovered the ruins, and Straights wouldn't have used the opportunity to become a vampire. Basically Speedwagon never would have played a role, which would make some parts better and some parts worse. Part 2 has the weakest connection to Dio, though. Everything else is hugely influenced by Dio's actions, until the reboot.
