The author must really hate part 4 considering that Okuyasu and Koichi were replaced with these... things

I never actually read Jorge Joestar, so this is my first time seeing Okuyasu from that universe. Is his hair supposed to be pointing forward like a pompadour, or along the sides of his head like the King of All Cosmos?

Alt Keicho is apparently the westaboo looking guy in the photo, so I'm assuming it's the Katamari dude

Scratch that, the fat guy is actually alt Okuyasu's stand
"Fukashigi Nijimura - Alternative universe Keicho Nijimura. Stand is named "NYPD Blue" that takes the form of a reliable 30-year old cop from New York."

Everyone's posting about the spoilerific Jorge Joestar and no one's posted the memorable non-spoiler example of the "high quality artwork" that accompanies it.

His stand looks a bit like Dennis Franz.

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
Muryotaisu Nijimura - Alternative universe Okuyasu Nijimura. Stand is named "Grand Bleu" which summons three somewhat disobediant dolphins named Jack, Enzo, and Joanna. They can swim at fast speeds.

All the Stands in the novel are named after movies.

The best. Araki truly outdid himself when drawing for Jorge Joestar.
Click to expand...

Unfortunately, this one is by the author, Otaro Maijo. Araki only draw the cover for this one.
You can check the author illustration for Jorge Joestar in these link.
http://j-books.shueisha.co.jp/pickup/vsjojo/maijo/01/ (WARNING, THERE'S SPOILER FROM FUTURE PART)

So yes, not only the author wrote 750++ pages of pure insanity, he also include his own illustration in it. And there's a lot of illustration.

Really? I didn't know that. I knew that Araki did illustrations for it, so I assumed he was responsible for the wonderful pieces of art that graced Jorge Joestar (I also assumed Araki didn't put much effort into them; they reminded me of the end of chapter scribbles he sometimes puts in the manga, and I thought they just used his scribbles to illustrate the masterpiece that is Jorge Joestar.) I didn't know the author was the one to do them.

You're probably joking, but just in case: that's not Araki.

EDIT (didn't see there was another page):

Better as in more powerful? Id go with Dio just because he was that much more cocky
Click to expand...

Straights was actually cockier I think. He said Dio was playing around rather than getting things straight.

cntr said:
Keicho mentions in episode 3 Dio's belief that the Stands of evil people are stronger. I assume the same applies to vampires and zombies, like Tarkus and Bruford vs. every other zombie.

So Dio is "more powerful", since Straizo had weird motivations.
Click to expand...

What was Straights' motivation anyway? I keep hearing that "he's hardening Joseph to fight the Pillar Men" but I never got that.

Kthulhu said:
Straights was beaten by Joseph when he was an amateur Hamon user. I'd say DIO was better.
Click to expand...

Huh, pretty sure he wasn't. In fact I think Straights outright committed suicide?

His motivation was "I don't want to look old." The guy's like 90 years old.

He committed suicide, but he was already Rippled at that point

I sometimes wonder if that was Araki setting up Kars using Hamon, though

Straight's desire was to stay young forever. If I remember right he said the only reason he joined the ripple gang was for the benefits it had on the body.

And yeah he committed suicide by charging his body with ripple energy but if I remember right Joseph had him on the ropes.

Goodness. I've been waiting to read Jorge Joestar, but flipping through these illustrations might just tip my curiosity over the edge. This looks like pure madness.

I thought Joseph was hanging for dear life, then he mentioned to Joseph that he can't beat the Pillar Men if his skills were like that.

Fuck, this just makes me want to read and watch 2 again.

If only Straits had died in Phantom Blood instead of Dire. Joseph could have learned a technique truly perfect in both attack and defense.

So if it was Dire who lived, it makes you wonder how Battle Tendency would have ended. Since it was Straights who taught Lisa Lisa after all.

Also people are apparently associating him with Polnareff.

Dire would have probably tried the split attack against Stroheim, only to end up locked up in a freezer and dying
