Sometimes you've got to listen to the piece of music referenced instead/as well but I don't have a drat clue in this case either.

Butt Ox posted:I wonder what Hato's stand can do when she's not wearing heels Maybe she can extend another extremity, like fake nails or hair extensions, but she just uses her heels because it looks loving radical to pierce a man's skull like that

I swear to god if we never learn the identity of that weird guy Josuke flashed back to while fighting the man upstairs, I'm gonna lose my poo poo. I won't be surprised at this point if it ends up being an early design for Kira, Joubin or Damo.

It could be that Araki decided on the generational King naming scheme beforehand and was just like, "nice, I can finally put in a Rihanna reference"

A friend hooked me up with some photos from the Jojoveller Stand Book, so I've been translating the comments from Araki included with it. So far, I've finished Part 3 and Part 4. You guys might find it interesting.

I love how so much of Araki's writing style is basically "wouldn't it be cool if...?" or more frequently "wouldn't this be hosed up if true?"Araki posted:Within the worldview of Jojo, aliens are just barely acceptable.

We know Kira knew Jobin. (e: god yeah josuke's right I keep mixing him up with norisuke, he knows norisuke) I doubt it will ever actually be explained. There are a lot of weird threads from early on that are likely never going to be woven back in. Okuyasu Nijimura fucked around with this message at 05:42 on Oct 22, 2016 |

i'm still pretty confident that jesus's dentures are biting people also, in only vaguely related news, the vento aureo retranslation is roughly 2/3rds of the way done if i'm reading the chapters right

Bite mark forensic tech has been thoroughly discredited so if you think you're gonna nail Jesus for this one, you're wrong

Okuyasu Nijimura posted:It's jobin, I think. We know Kira knew Jobin. We don't know that Kira knew Jobin, we know that Norisuke knew Kira and needed him. It's not a stretch from there, but it's not confirmed. I'd wager it's an early design for Yagiyama.

Schwarzwald posted:Wait, Mikitaka had a stand?! Mikitaka had a stand-like ability that he called Earth Wind and Fire. Whether or not it was a stand is still up in the air, since he couldn't see other stands. Or, at least, didn't react to them.

I didn't remember that he named it, I just remembered he couldn't see other stands.

Earth Wind and Fire was named in a databook. I seem to recall it actually being Planet Waves' original name?

Okay one more that I think is particularly interesting.quote:CHARIOT REQUIEM I like that the text dump makes clear that a motif for stands is being fusions of mechanical and biological aspects. I knew a lot of them looked robotic but I like that the idea is more specific then that.

These are all really cool, thank you so much.Your way works too posted:I like that the text dump makes clear that a motif for stands is being fusions of mechanical and biological aspects. I knew a lot of them looked robotic but I like that the idea is more specific then that. You can really tell that that wasn't exactly solidified until a little bit later, what with Hermit Purple and the only really off thing about Star Plat being his ears.
