PEPSI FOR VG BABE
I've run out of new JoJo to read, and I'm not used to the wait yet. I don't know what to do with myself now.

Josuke's great, and so is Yasuho. She needs to show up more, though. Their Stands are cool and good. Norisuke is an interesting guy, and I came around to him as more was revealed about him. Joshu is a poo poo, and deserves everything he gets. Hato sending Damo running was great, but she deserved the kill there. I would ramble more, but it's late so...

Jorge Joestar was completely insane, even by JoJo standards.

This accurately describes how it felt to complete Berserk for me.

It'll make sense, eventually.
I felt JoJolion had a really weird pacing/narration somewhere up around the sudden introduction of Higashikatas. Then Araki found his rhythm again.

You think that's bad, there are TWO hunters in hxh and still they only leave the house to have adventures like twice a year! That sucks.

instead of shooting nails at people why doesn't Johnny just shoot them with a gun

I think he doesn't shoot them with a gun because he doesn't have a gun.

At any rate, the nails basically are bullets that can use the Spin, so I think a normal gun is a downgrade.

He should buy a gun.
What if he shot out nails AND shot the gun at the same time!?

Guns are only slightly more powerful than nerf guns in Steel Ball Run. Note how Johnny survives a revolver bullet to the forehead in True Man's World because he was outside its 'effective range' at like ten metres away and how DIO shooting him several times in the chest and neck is only used as setup for his real finisher... Johnny's own deflected nail shot.

that's because his stand replaced the bullets in the chamber with water

he also tried to jump to his death but his stand cause the wind to blow him back

guns are useless unless you're the Eleven Men and guns are extremely good

Johnny tried to use a gun once during Steel Ball Run during the Boom Boom fight. It goes terribly because guns and Stands don't mix. Johnny's reality bending, self-aiming, and spaghetti eating nails are vastly superior to bullets.

The literal best gun in all of JoJo needed to be fed pizza and sweet talked into firing.

I'm not sure whom I enjoy more between Mista and Hol Horse but Sex Pistols is definitely better than The Emperor.

Misra is already great at shooting but he's even better at shooting when he's wrangled together his six rowdy sons and fed them lunch

There is 0% chance that Mista smells like anything other than sweat and other bodily fluids. The boy is a grease machine.

Passione has Bruno and Giorno, so no, not even close.

I'd trust Bruno with my final £1 and he'd come back a month later with for £2.50 for me.

Mista would go get Narancia to panhandle him up another couple of quid so he can go buy a lads mag for them share at night.

Your son needs to bathe more and would spend way too much time jerking off but he is a good boy we all have our flaws and your son Mista is no exception


Also, he's 18, not 16!!!!!!!!

In every fight he's in, Mista steps the gently caress up with an eerie calm and is ready to ice fools, not with his mind ghost, but with a loving gun, he is here to murder people. Meanwhile I love Bruno, but boy kinda gets cold feet a lot and can get a bit shook in combat and Giorno's over here driving cars into rivers when fighting dudes with ice powers so no thank you, I want Mista watching my back

Josuke Higashikata
Mar 7, 2013


There's more to reliability than a fight though, that's just reliability in a fight.

If Passione was a real life gang, you just know for a fact that Mista is starting absolutely every fight he gets into, unless it's a fight Narancia started. Abbacchio and Fugo would sit by waiting for Mista and Narancia to gently caress up while Bruno's making bank.

Josuke Higashikata
Mar 7, 2013


It'd be all

"Yo, Mista, what did you do this time for gently caress's sake?"
"It wasn't me, they started it."
"You want me to get Moody Blues out pal?"
"Yeah, ok, it was me."

I really am, too. It looks lousy, something seems off about it to me. Implication is that the original cover wouldn't work here but then they still matched to jononium style so like why bother. Oh well



Mista has to work a bit to get in that calm fight zone and actually it's something that changes through the story- largely because of his interactions with giorno and bruno. I love mista a lot but he absolutely embodies that kind of guy who is all over the place which is initially pretty much backed up by his stand.

His character development is nice...

Are they going to give the sexy DIO on JoJonium 17 a shirt that says PRAY THE GAY AWAY or something?

because I know DIO and homosexuality and religion go hand in hand for him, he has a very speedy gay "friend" in the clergy, it would be out of character
