The CONSCIENCE is caused by the heart of Jesus and I think it's a rough outline of the location of the Corpse Parts across America, like it's sort of the path of the Steel Ball Run maybe? I might be making that up

Beetle Tendency is probably the best arc in part 8 so far, but the current one is shaping up pretty good too.

Not as much bug gore, though.

Yeah, at least the way I read it(and I could be wrong) Joseph definitely just shifted over into the new Irene world completely unharmed. And I know that Arakii said in an interview that Joseph was still alive in the beginning of part 6, but a little dumber or something of the sort.

It's kind of up for interpretation, but I think it seems doubtful that the Irene universe contains the characters we know from the first six arcs. Yes, when Pucci remade the universe with Made in Heaven, everyone was carried over (except for the people killed by Made in Heaven) but who's to say that's true for the new universe? After all, Made in Heaven was destroyed and the existence of Irene and her friends means the new universe wasn't made the same way.

Yeah that was my point. Killing Valentine acomplished something other than just killing Valentine (see: saving America from being ruled by an insanely spiteful, unkillable crazy guy). You could say Jotato 'just' killed DIO but you'd be missing the point in the extreme.

But in the end, Valentine does succeed in his goal of sticking Jesus in his bomb shelter and making America great (at the expense of everyone else on the planet). Ultimately, all Johnny manages to do is commit is a spate of revenge killings. Oh, and Valentine's going to get replaced by his vice president, and for all we know, he could be a huge jerk too.

Also, while we're on the topic of SBR, here's my favorite little tidbit from Jojoveller:

quote:


Araki's comment: This stand does nothing but bolster Pocoloco's confidence. It doesn't actually help him in any way. It can't make you lucky or anything, but it can make you more optimistic.

That's right, Pocoloco actually won the Steel Ball Run on his own merits. That luck was all natural, no stands involved.

Pocoloco is a top tier Jojo character, coming from a part where a lot of characters are also top tier.

I liked Hey Ya better when we were calling it Buckethead tho.

That's perfect because it goes back to the theme of SBR: Pocoloco wasn't destined to win, he only won because of his own efforts.

Also that makes me like his stand even more. It has a great design, and it's just a little buddy that gives you a pep talk when you need one :allears:

My headcanon is that Pocoloco founded the SBR-verse's equivalent to the Speedwagon Foundation and is now a beloved civil rights icon.

The Speedwagon Foundation helped fund the Steel Ball Run, so Pocoloco just used his money to loving chill and watch clouds.

Haha there are sooooo many people who are grousing about this because now Jojo is ~ruined~ for them since Hot Topic is The Worst and now Scenesters Have Invaded.

Hating on Hot Topic while still sneaking in when your friends aren't around to get a labret stud or wallet chain continues to be a time-honored tradition, I guess. I'm a Certified Old but I think it's cool that there's more actual merch out there and I generally think it's good when more people like a thing that I like.

Hot Topic's moved away from the primarily emo/scene scene and has been predominately pop culture stuff for a while now, I believe. I guess there's just still that stigma.
