I'm half surprised they didn't drastically change his colors like they did with Giorno.

Pink Giorno has always been a thing in Araki's art and such. It's hard to say it's the primary or first appearance of coloured GioGio but it's always been a thing. Even looking at the super action statues, GioGio was pink on the first release and blue on second.

CJ posted:In what way? The theory is that he changed his mind after he wrote it. How quickly after he wrote it? This was less than a year after that particular story was published, in fact right after Cheap Trick when Kira was already an established character and had even become Kosaku but the final battle was still a long ways ahead. Regardless, if it had been relevant at some point, one would think he would have mentioned that instead of dismissing the question outright as if he never even considered it to be relevant. I guess we're still talking about this

CJ’s a moron and will keep at it. No matter what araki said, he clearly meant for the guy who saved josuke to be josuke. Ignore the fact that the guy is wearing way different and much less flamboyant clothes than josuke ever wore in part 4’s run. He has the same hair as josuke, and only josuke could have that hair

Yeah i don't fault him if he changed his mind, it's just a natural result of writing an ongoing story in weekly chunks over a number of years. Whether he intended it to be time travel or not that chapter ended up being a bit awkward in retrospect but that's natural in a serialised story over such a long period. Expect My Mom posted:can you not read? is that your gimmick? Illiteracy? The interview is from like a year after the Rohan chapter, so him saying that it was just a random guy isn't inconsistent with it being time travel when he wrote him but then changing his mind as the story progressed.

Bringing up obvious plot hooks and then never using them is an Araki thing and in the end I can only imagine they're "plot hooks" because this genre has trained us to think that about anything hanging. I am reminded of the runaway girl in part 3 who mentioned her father a couple times, both of which ended up not having any consequence.

Just finished up with Phantom Blood and Battle Tendencies last night. All I can say is that was a hell of a rush with weaponizing a volcano while getting attack by piranha. This show is dope as hell!

I think if Araki had changed his mind on time travel being the original idea he probably would have mentioned it by now considering what he's said about changing the idea of Fugo betraying the team.

It's Chekhov's gun. It's just when you release a story piecemeal over a number of years you can't really go back and edit things to iron out the flaws.

And it was pretty drat obvious that the savior wasn't Josuke considering the lack of baubles and charms that Josuke normally has on his uniform. It wasn't just Araki changing his mind later out or forgetting, it's pretty loving blatant it was never meant to be Josuke when the chapter dropped.

If it's so blatant why are so many people confused about it? The reason this discussion keeps coming up is because people finish Part 4 then come and ask what was up with Josuke meeting his future self. The OVA director in the video thought it was Josuke. If Araki did intend it to be a random guy he did a pretty poor job signalling so.

imo it's reasonable to suspect that it was supposed to be time travel while you're reading it given that it's jojos and that wouldn't be an uncommon trope. the weird part is continuing to insist that it was originally supposed to be time travel despite all evidence to the contrary and the fact that it never comes up again

People are coming to this theory based on a pattern that hadn't actually been established at the time because with the scans, people are reading the entire series at one time and applying future information to their readings of the behind the scenes process. It's kinda like the opposite problem DBZ has where since the west had so much time between DBZ and a proper full wide release of the original Dragon Ball, people (and Toriyama) are under the impression that Toriyama forgot Launch as a character, but actually he basically wrote her out two weeks after her last appearance.

Considering that the flashback that would be the basis for the time travel theory was written two years before anything involving time travel was introduced this would require Araki to be both forgetful of plot points while also doing a strange amount of foreshadowing for something years down the line, which is pretty uncharacteristic of him.

Why would anyone in this town full of kind, nice people with Golden Hearts help some random lady save her dying toddler? Clearly it has to be Josuke performing an act of rational self-interest.

i mean given what we saw with shigechi it would be more appropriate for the random stranger to talk about how gross the dying baby was and keep walking

Yeah, it's been a while since i've read it but i'm not sure "Everyone in Morioh has golden hearts" was a theme. Most of the random civilians they met were assholes. Off the top of my head there was the woman who Kira killed who was using her boyfriend, the baby store owner who scammed a senile old man, the guy who catcalled Tomoko in the car, the bullies who killed an innocent turtle. As for the stand users they were all assholes except for Tonio, and he's an Italian immigrant. EDIT: Kira's coworker seemed like a nice guy.

looking like a jojo is normal in the jojoverse. all the outlandish outfits are described as normal (jotaro has a "school uniform", passione members "try not to stand out", etc). the only reason background characters don't have their own jojo-esque outfits is because araki can't draw that many. I mean, there was a random rear end dude with jotaro's exact outfit and build in part 6 and this was just normal. unknown stranger looks like a jojo because he's an Important Character. that and Josuke probably based more of his look on him than just the hair

guys what if the pompadour stranger is joe taro from vento wind but he used king crimson to go to morioh to save josuke? this is possible because i don't understand the concept of writing a story retweet this edit: some of you are saying the author said this isn't possible but what would he know, he only writes it there's an editor too and the editor might have intended this don't @ me
