Didn't I kill him with a HELICOPTER?
What would've happened if Jotaro brought Rohan over to Florida and he used Heaven's Door on Spider-man????

It's not a ghost, but probably a 'living corpse'. The 'living dead' with a hell of a lot of bloodlust...
What if Bohemian Rhapsody caused Pink Dark Boy to come to life and Rohan used Heaven's Door on him

makes u think

Rohan would probably find one or two dropped plotlines, like "after defeating the Light Red Man I found a piece of fabric from my lost father's tie, but I never did anything about it." and he cried in a corner until he decided to callback on all those storylines until he finished Dark Pink Boy thanks to Pucci speeding up the planet.

Man, now I'm thinking about what kind of weird shenanigans would ensue if Civil War and Flaccid PancakeLimp Bizkit both existed at once/teamed up.

Finally getting back to Stone Ocean. I'm going to try and finish off the rest of it in one go here.

Let's see what this Underworld arc is about.

EDIT: I can't decide if using Kiss to hide inside someone is brilliant or loving bullshit.

Well then.

I don't think Stone Ocean's ending is as bad as I've heard it made out to be. It just seems really, really...abrupt? I guess?

The last chapter with Emporio finishing off Pucci seems...I dunno. I don't mind it but it seems like it could have been written better.

I mean it's not a terrible ending, just so hurried that you feel confused by it. Last time I re-read it I even stopped for a second and was like "wait, did I accidentally skip something? gently caress, we're here already?"

Stone Ocean's ending is

P E R F E C T

It's the classic case of what happens when you get dealt a bad hand. It snow balls, you die and then the gay priest is killed by a kid. Everyone knows that. Happened to me just last week.

To answer a question preemptively, SBR does not take place in the universe from the end of Stone Ocean.

Unless it does. But we'll never find out or maybe we will, i don't know. I wouldn't be too surprised if it becomes a plot point.

Its ambiguous and never definitively stated one way or the other, but no it does not.

I think it's more than likely not, but I think it's best if it remains technically possible, so the people that like that can believe it, and the people that don't can have it be separate.

Until it turns out that one of Johnny's sisters had children and they ultimately resulted in Irene, it's pretty definitively not the same universe at this time, and the only relevant name to date that is omitted from the Joestar tree in JJL is Kyo, which is purposeful to the plot and a secret she is willing to kill over. Josefumi's parentage would be the prime suspect for Irene's family if it were to show up, but I'm not super convinced that Sadafumi or Kiyomi Kujo will actually be relevant here on out.

It's pretty clear that Araki is happy with the freedom allowed by the SBR verse and rebooting it and probably doesn't want to or care to tie it all in. It allows more creative freedom and its a well he can draw from when he chooses to, if he does, but at this point, they're just not related for my money.

My money is on never, ever hearing about Josefumi's lineage because I can't imagine it's going to be relevant so I doubt it'd be tied back to Irene somehow.

Clearly Norisuke just had an illegitimate child in America. And that's how Irene got her birthmark.
