Jobin is into some weird poo poo.

But yeah is Mitsuba seeing the head doctor at the same time Josuke's gang is chasing after him? Cause I'm starting to think Tsurugi is doing some poo poo.

hey is this the first time araki drew two named characters being intimate in a way that didn't involve one being extremely threatening to the other

I got a lot of "not taking no as an answer" vibes from Jobin there tbh.

There was definitely threat involved.

Also adding in the fact that Jobin's defining characteristic is actual manchild who assaults people when they resist or challenge him...

I am absolutely lost as for what's going on.

So it seems like there's at least two head doctors running around at the same time. Could be Tsurugi's doing. But whoever is disguised, he/she can also attack by making them run into stuff... And that is somehow bad enough that it pretty much severs someone's legs? Is this some kind of weaponized bad luck stand (a bit like Ticket to Ride), that can retroactively make any tiny misfortune worse and worse over time? (So a small scratch turns into a giant wound, etc.) That doesn't explain what seems like a second doctor, and teleportation; but it DOES appear that the doctor at the estate and at the hospital have the same powers, because the wife also got hurt in a minor way trying to go after the doctor.

Sooooo...

- there's at least two of him who appear to have the same powers
- can make those chasing after him suffer accidents
- those accidents turn much, much worse eventually (???)
- he might not even be real

If Kaato is involved, that might also be how the kid got crushed by the gate. Kaato shows herself to the kid, who had already teased Tsurugi about his grandmother the child killer. Kaato (or whoever???) puts kid under the effect of the misfortune stand. Kid chases after grandma, because HOLY poo poo THE ACTUAL KILLER. That counts as chasing after her, the stand activates, gate closes. Before that, Tsurugi had put his family under Paper Moon King's effect so that they'd see Kaato as the doctor.
I have no loving clue.

1. What the gently caress is going on
2. drat this is the horniest Jojo part

he's just a spry old man who is hard of hearing and the doctor at the estate is his 88 year old brother who likes to wear matching outfits

JoJo is maybe the only series where you can expect to hear something to the effect of "Look, you're gonna get a pair of scissors shoved down your throat in 10 seconds, just deal with it" and I kind of love it for that.

I'll be real when watching the anime I kept expecting Abbachio to die to Illuso. Before his introduction I had forgotten he even existed and was like "who even IS this guy?!"

Yeah, I read the bad translation.
