I think its funny how Josuke, Okuyasu and Koichi are all still wearing their high school uniforms.

Not that surprising when you consider that Jotaro spends the rest of his life after part 3 wearing variations of his high school uniform

I like the capcom jojo fighting game and I adore the SaGa-inspired rpgmaker jojo fanfic 7th Stand User which is about part 3 but there's a 7th person and that person is you and you get your own stand from a list of like... 18 I think, though even that game spoils stuff from other parts just through easter eggs and references.

The best thing about 7th Stand User is the ambition that went into creating it when you realize that the creator put in nearly every scene worth remembering from part 3 in it while also having to add some unique dialog at various points for 18 different player characters. This gets even crazier when you look into the code using RPG Maker 2000 and see the content that never made it past one or two events before being left incomplete.

In addition to being to able play the game again as Josuke with some of part 3 changed to fit him into the story there were apparently plans to implement a bunch of different Jojo characters as possible protagonists. From what I can find had the game been finished you would have been able to play as Kira, Okuyasu, Koichi, Jolyne, Gyro, and even Baoh. Sadly the intro events for each of them come up as garbled text which probably has to do with the game being translated from Japanese and not everything coming out right. Putting even half of them into the game as playable characters for part 3 would have been amazing, it's a shame that it was never finished.

Between Gold Experience's use of life energy and Crazy Diamond's healing power I'm beginning to wonder if the children of Hamon users end up with some sort of Ripple infusion in their Stand powers. While there were none left by the time of Part 4, it wouldn't surprise me if Josuke and Giorno would have been very good at fighting vampires.

Speaking of which, how did Akira find out about Time Stop? :psyduck:

It wouldn't surprise me if there were internet message boards for stand users in the world of Jojo, and anyone that survives a fight with Jotaro after Part 3 would probably have a story that someone smart could use to figure out Time Stop.

There's an alternate universe where Rohan goes to Italy instead of Koichi and after meeting Giorno he stays for entirety of Part 5 in order to get as much material for his manga as possible.

My favorite Rohan moment comes from the Oingo Boingo Brothers Adventure one-shot comic where Rohan writes the afterword and over the course of a few pages he praises Boingo's unique art style, realizes that Thoth actually does all the work, and starts raging at how he's a superior mangaka and shouldn't have to speak well of someone that he thinks is untalented. In the fictional world of Jojo's the physical release of the comic is an actual thing and somehow saw print with Rohan self-aggrandizing contribution included.

Keichou/ Rohan's Dad (can't remember) shot two different rats for giggles and you're shocked at the idea someone shot a turtle??

It was Akira, and it seemed there that he was just loving around with his newly-stolen arrow. The turtle is placed in a position of great trust and importance in the Boss's plan, and turtles are fairly uncommon in a city compared to rats.

Old Mista is surprisingly non-feeble compared to the others, and aside from Naranchia's knife he's the only one of them that has a weapon that doesn't require his Stand power to be deadly

It's a shame we probably won't getting any more extended scenes of La Squadra, them losing almost all of their members over the course of a few days would have been interesting to see from the perspective of those that are still alive.

Part 3 Jotaro becomes a million times better when you realize he's an awkward teenager trying to be cool by quoting Clint Eastwood and backtalking his mom.

Like, when he's going off about what a criminal hardass he is against Kakyoin, he lists "walking out of restaurants without paying" as one of his horrid deeds. Come on. Dude's a huge dork.

The start of Part 3 is really good at getting this across. Jotaro is introduced to the audience as having locked himself in a jail cell after his stand beat the poo poo out of multiple people. That's pretty cool, and he punctuates his story by shotgunning a beer that's actually just a soda. Aside from terrifying the other prisoners and yelling at his mom, he spends a good chunk of his jail time reading Shonen Jump and playing with an R/C car. Jotaro goes to great lengths to look like a cool, badass delinquent but he can't hide the fact that at heart that just isn't who he is.

2) Do any of the heroes in parts 1 through 4 ever kill anyone? For the purposes of this question, killing vampires, pillar men, or monsters doesn't count nor does turning someone into a rock or a book or having the antagonist accidentally get run over.

The Stardust Crusaders have a combined seven kills between them if you don't count vampires, and nine if you do. ZZ may or may not have died after being tied to a rock so I can't include him.

There are only 2 times a Joestar kills a human: Joseph kills Nena(The Empress), and Jotaro kills the fake Captain Tenille(Deep Blue Sea) Some of the other protagonists in Part 3 kill though, especially Polnareff.

Giorno already broke this rule but you could argue he isn't a "true" Joestar.

Joseph killed three hijackers by causing a plane crash when he was a child, which arguably puts him in the lead for Joestar with the highest body count.

Pomplamoose posted:

Is the fake captain every explicitly stated to have died? I remember him sinking after getting star fingered but he might have breathed underwater using his stand or something. Maybe he didn't need to be conscious to do that.

The wiki says that died he, but even if star finger didn't do it they still left him in the ocean after the ship sank.
