Joseph came over of his own volition, seemingly against Jotaro's better wishes.
Y'all got short memories though, the reason Jotaro's even there is because Joseph tried to get a pic of Josuke with Hermit Purple and they kept getting Anjuro instead. That Joseph can still use Hermit Purple is among the first facts established in DiU.

Didn't I kill him with a HELICOPTER?

Joseph brought himself over, no? He probably just needs special Speedwagon brand cameras that can be smashed by an old man.

D'aww, some little cardboard home-made cameras for Oldestseph to smash, they don't tell him but they soaked the middle so he can do it. :3:

I really wanna know how Akira managed to climb aboard the ship when there's a whole move about how a group of friends can't do it.
Really excited about the next episode though, I didn't realize it would come up this soon.

having your blood removed from you and returned to you from a vampire probably doesnt do wonders for health.

As established in part 1, vampiric energy and the ripple cancel each other out.

His exposure to Dio's vampiric power undid all the life prolonging benefits of his ripple training

hey anime only people, I want you to give me your best guess at what you think next week's episode could even be about based on the title


A colony of bees developed Stand powers to fight off Japanese hornets after Akira hid the bow & arrow in the branches of their tree. But the Duwang Gang must tearfully destroy them when the side-effects threaten to bury the school under a tsunami of boiling honey. In the Blu-Ray commentary track, Araki admits he based it off an old screenplay he sold to Dreamworks, which would later become Bee Movie.

Someone tried to fire the bow and arrow and screws up so bad they hit the bow and arrow with the bow and arrow, giving it its own stand, arrowsmith.

And that, as much as anything else, led to my drinking problem.
I recall seeing a single rose among the silhouettes in the OP. So maybe someone shoots a rose bush with the arrow and it gains a stand: Savage Garden.

Japanese bees can already do this. They wait for the scouting hornet to get deep into the hive, then every single bee in the hive starts vibrating, raising the temperature in the hive to just high enough to roast the hornet alive (the bees themselves are adapted to be able to survive at this temperature).

Nature doesn't need Stands to be bizarre.

when looking for stuff for reference I've definitely laughed at how inconsistent it is

it's flipped around to the front of someone's neck before just so Araki can get it in frame

I'm thinking about making it teal and sticking on the back of my shoulder, nearer to below my neck so it'll show when I wear tanks 'cause it's summer, boiii

All this talk about Joestar birthmarks reminds me that we never get to see Josuke's in the manga. I wonder if the anime will fix that.

Akira managing to sneak past Josuke and Koichi, jump into the water, start swimming towards the boat, and climb aboard without them noticing is definitely something strange. But it gives Okuyasu closure, so I can live with it.

It always bothered me when you had things like Caesar's dad getting killed by the Pillar Men and he never got to deal with that or Avdol never getting to confront Dio again after running from him the first time.

I really glad to see that Joseph showed up again but I was waiting the entire time for him to do some ridiculous like he always does. But no, it looks like old age finally caught up with him. :smith:

On the other hand, him with Josuke is still adorable. I can't wait to see where it all goes.

the thing to understand is that the ripple will only keep someone young and fit as long as they rigorously practice it

by the time SDC rolled around, joseph had already slacked off quite a ton

by the time of DiU, old age has fully caught up with him because he's probably done like...literally nothing during the 10 or so years between parts 3 and 4

I was seriously thinking the dementia thing was all an act and was going to end up like this:

*RHCP appears from the light socket above Joseph*
"And next you'll say: Now I'm going to kill this decrepit old man."
"Now I'm going to kill this decrepit old man!" *gasp*
"HERMIT PURPLE"
*Hermit Purple tears RHCP to shreds*
