Gold Experience usually creates fully formed animals/plants/whatever so I can't help but wonder if bricksnake was left half-brick to show the audience that life created by GE takes on some properties of its original form.

Snake immunity makes a lot more sense that way: since Purple Haze virus kills everything, the only life that can exist in proximity must have some kind of immunity, and Gold Experience always creates life.

Also Dio must have, at some point, touched Jonathan's dick. And he clearly loves his body, too.

drat you're right. DIO was obsessed with mastering that body, he probably focused super hard on getting Jonathan's hog to work just right.

astute viewers may have noticed that king crimson has a little even angrier man on his forehead

araki drew that little guy because he liked the guy in total recall who had the other guy in his chest, im not even kidding about that

Hirohiko Araki posted:

JoJo is always deeply connected to horror movies, and this influence is especially apparent in the villains.







[edit: spoilers were here apparently]

I'm not claiming Araki cribbed any of these (for instance DIA was 1992-1995 and American Psycho was 2000) but it's fun to think about :)

Yeah I've never understood the "Gold Experience is weird bullshit" complaints because I'm 100% here for weird, dumb bullshit that makes me go "Sure" and then we move on.

Agreed. JoJo grabbed me from the start but it didn't really click for me until Kars started attacking Joseph with piranhas. That's the exact moment my brain went from "Can a volcano really explode someone into space" to "I hope Joseph reaches the volcano in time"

Male models are genetically constructed to become assassins. They're in peak physical condition. They can gain entry into the most secure places in the world. And most important of all, models don't think for themselves. They do as they're told.

Crazy Diamond is absolutely the ideal stand. Thematic, simple but versatile power with well defined rules (for the most part) that allow for lots of imaginative fights with satisfying conclusions. Big part of why part 4 is the best, imo

Agreed, for me punching the spaghetti was the platonic Jojo moment. Complete nonsense from the outside, brilliant from the inside, all played totally straight.

I keep dipping into Stardust Crusaders (rewatching the series) and accidentally binging it. This poo poo holds up and the 2nd half outro is worth it every time

D'Arby Elder is my fav so far. Every twist logically follows the preceding scene and the climax builds all the way to the end and the villain is so scary clever, beating nearly all of them at their own game one by one until he can't. Its such good plot writing jesus

Like he almost had them, he was so close to doing what even DIO couldn't
