Gold Experience is more Star Platinum than Crazy D as terms of ability goes. Not so much in what its specific power is, rather its scope. I'm saying it does whatever the hell the plot needs

Golden Wind/Vento Aureo/Ougon no Kaze is the subtitle of Part 5.

The closest I think he's come to addressing it is a passage from "manga in theory and practice" where he talks about how he doesnt think it's necessary to make any character a girl, even in a romance story!

It's an urban myth (but a very plausible one in context) that Pt6's protagonist was going to be bisexual until the editors stepped in.

This is the anime thread!!! There's a Araki actually said™ with a hardcore fujoshi and Araki and he's okay with everything but incest, basically. It's on the wikia somewhere.

It's more like it overstimulates your brain so your mind starts going so fast that it begins hallucinating what you would like to do and your body just can't keep up.

Fighting Gold reminds me a lot of James Bond openings. The visuals in particular felt very Casino Royale. Bloody Stream had a little of that as well, but it's more pronounced this time around.

I read an Araki says quote somewhere about Part 5 where people may perceive his stuff as having homosexual undertones because he decided to make his Good Boys a lot more svelte in this chapter (even though the reverse is often true in Japan with representing gayness) and pose more than ever before, but it was just due to him pulling from fashion magazines and to not read into it. I never saw the book or interview where that quote was taken from supposedly, so it could be made up r it could be possible - who knows. This is definitely the gayest part, and like the poster above me said, it's so gay that it gets stuck in an infinite spin of gay/not gay.

yeah if forced to write it's sexuality jojo would just put down a drawing of an extremely buff or svelte man doing an impossible pose is that gay? who knows! who cares!!! JOJO!!!!! e: and yeah araki is really into italian fashion which is why this part is so pose-heavy and full of the most ridiculous outfits in the series Yinlock fucked around with this message at 13:51 on Oct 13, 2018 |

araki is a queer icon in that he is an icon for queers and getting an anime made where your characters are slowly panning across a screen in intense bisexual lighting while an rnb song about how badly you want to gently caress is woke

I love the male boob windows. But I always felt like Jojo has just incredibly strong male relationships, and while they might seem gay, the fact that nobody is trying to get into each other's pants makes it loop around to the straightest thing imaginable. Basically Jojo is Shrodringers Gay - nobody is certain cause nothing is said straight.

JoJo has a very classical sense of aesthetic, where it's all about beauty but without any sexual desire. Like, you wouldn't call the statue of David gay.

So much media is plagued with being self-conscious about people thinking it’s gay and afraid to show things like male intimacy as a result so it’s great that JoJo just doesn’t give a crap whether it comes across as homoerotic or not

In his defense, Giorno specifically said he wouldn't involve civilians, and Bucciarati also had no knowledge of Gold Experience's abilities beyond the sense overload. Anyone in his situation wouldn't think that they were putting a child in danger (especially since said child didn't even remotely look like one, Araki's art sure is interesting at times) and I'm convinced he wouldn't have ever taken that route if he had known about both things before. There's a reason why his name is BRunO. He's a good guy. He's our Jobro.

Part 8 has a fight where JoJo's win condition is to not admit he wants to gently caress his opponent.
