Part of me hopes that Valentine left an extra double in the SBR universe and continues on as a villain like DIO, but if one Valentine is dead then that means the D4C died along with him and if the stand is dead then all the alt universe Valentines are also dead.

I just want Damo to be the main bad guy for how much he would stand out in a line-up of all the other main villains.
I feel like there's no way Damo's the main bad guy, but yeah seeing his Gross Uncle looking rear end in this kind of fanart like this would be amazing

Not sure if this is a typo or an autocorrection, but it fits his power either way.

The alt universe Valentines are fine because they don't have his stand. They're not going to keel over.

The prime Valentine is the only one that has D4C, it's what prevents all the Valentines from exploding into each other when they get together. There are moments iirc where it looks like D4C can be transferred between Valentines and that Valentine becomes Valentine Prime at any given moment.

Aurora

Yeah, they share it in that one Valentine can pass off D4C if he becomes too incapable of actually fighting.

Yeah I'd definitely bet on the main villain of Jojolion not being a fat dude, especially considering part seven started off with the main villain being a fat dude and then Araki gave him abs through literal divine means. If there's one thing constant throughout Jojos, it's the main bad guy being a hot dude with abs, and that guy from Gappy's flashback looks a lot more like main bad guy material than the guy he's fighting at the moment.

also, jojolion is literally only like halfway through or so if steel ball run is anything to go by. there's PLENTY of time for everything to get wrapped up.

If Damo isn't the main villain, he sure as hell is at least the Vanilla Ice. Despite having a goofy design, dude's intimidating as gently caress.

When you think meduim-hard about this, it really reinforces how fanatical Valentine's devotion to his country is. Who the hell knows how many Valentines have selflessly given their lives for AMERICA when necessary :patriot:

The clear answer will be that the final boss' stand will have all the powers that Araki forgot about. Redirecting attacks, removing armour, Star Finger: all things he has sapped from other times and places.

This brings up a question.

Since souls have been basically proven to exist in JoJo (that whole switching thing in part five) and that someone can have more than one, does that mean Gappy has both Kira and Josefumi's souls in him, or are they both dead and he's a wholly new person with his own soul?

Or does he not even have one? :tinfoil:

It says something that like four years later, I still have the first ten seconds of this stuck in my head where it will never leave, it's a really good theme

Also I listened to Kakyoin's character song yesterday on my drive and got emotional....again....

I mean I picture a sort of moment where something somebody does is able to undo whatever was done to wipe both memories so he gets a full hit of both parts all at once and it completely fucks him up but I can also see it just never coming back to him, ever.

But yeah, I think both "souls" are in there at once, plus the third consciousness? Zero foundation for thinking that, of course, other than maybe my earnest desire to believe that those two halves exist somewhere locked up in him in terms of their own consciousness.

When I re-reading DIU with the Invincible Trio translations over the color images I realized something about Killer Queen

It has a detonator on the webbing between it's right thumb and index finger, so Kira's little hand motion where he pushes a detonator isn't a weird quirk, it's literally required to trigger the bombs for his Stand apparently. I couldn't tell this in the non-colored scans but it's literally a bright red button when it's colored in so it stands out.

Okuyasu Nijimura
May 31, 2015


Yup, we were actually talking about that recently. It's not totally clear until Koichi uses Echoes to hold his hand down that he actually definitely needs that "detonator" sequence, it's not just an affectation like Ringo's watch.

I just watched the 1st episode of Part 2 with somebody who has razzed me about my love of jojo before and I think I might actually be able to get them to keep watching. Only how many episodes to go before Part 4 and about a month to get through all those episodes between?

16 left in Part 2 + 48 for all of Part 3 = 64 episodes. So about two a day to get done in the first week of April

Just imagine if Part 4 episode one ends and All Star fires up...

And then Warner Brothers immediately cancel the anime, sue david, get them disbanded and Araki prohibits all future JoJo anime.
