Every inch of his body is total jerkass, which is why everyone dunks on him so hard.

How do you mentally keep track of all of this?
He even has a shitty haircut.
There's only one. But the Jojo before and the Jojo now are different.

Tamaki Damo did nothing wrong, he was just trying to protect his investment! Also, he tried to release Joshu to his natural habitat of the sewers where he belonged.

I was really surprised when Josuke straight up killed Damo on the street. Like, I'd expect that from Passione members but not him.
What other Jojo's killed people?

I think the only Jojo that didn't kill anyone was Josuke.

I think he didn't kill anyone directly except the rats if we count those. However, pretty sure Angelo is gonna eventually die because of Josuke unless he stopped needing food and water when merged with the rock.

Waiting for the double turn when Gappy becomes the villain and Joshu is the real Jojo.

I'm not surprised by Giorno being a cold blooded killer. Based on what you guys told me I had already assumed he'd be one of the only Jojo's to kill in cold blood. Anybody else here enjoy reading the Toonami posts about the episode?

They haven't even seen the weirdest shit yet. I can't wait for them to react to that dude jumping out of the decapitated horse neck. I like how the loved Dio's Runway Model Wall Walk.

Could not find any youtube Toonami airing reaction videos, I was pretty bummed out. It's better when you can see the looks of confusion on newcomers faces.

I have finally bought the first volume of Phantom Blood off of ComiXology today. It's pretty good stuff so far but I have a question. Do you need to read Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency in order to understand what's going on in Stardust Crusaders?

One of the Stardust Crusaders protagonists is a major character in Battle Tendency, and one of the main villains of Stardust Crusaders is a major character in Phantom Blood. You don't necessarily need to read the first two parts to get what's happening in part 3, but I'd suggest you read everything in order to fully enjoy Stardust Crusaders, and JoJo in general.

Yes and no. SDC is essentially a direct continuation from PB, but BT is more self-contained. However, a main character in SDC is from BT.

Good to know. I was wondering if I needed to read all of the parts or not. I hear a lot of things about Stardust Crusaders more so than the other ones.

One does not simply skip a Jojo part.

I believe it's still a work in progress, but I think the JoJo Colored Project happens to have them in B&W on their site as they go.
Stardust Crusaders is what made the series big, that's why you hear about it so much.
But part of the fun of Jojo is seeing Araki improve as a writer, and even when the parts don't have plotline connections, they have several thematic connections. Skipping parts is a big no-no for that reason.
I know I know. Just keeping an old translation's ambiguity alive... one where you could have read it as the end of Higashikata forming a "Jo" if you place it before Josuke.
But really though I'm just here to hate on Joshu.
I do wonder where Jojolion is heading though.
Like... if they find a functional Rokakaka and the right order of sacrifices are made will Josefumi become the main protagonist and Kira the antagonist? Is that where this is going? We're like 60 monthly chapters in and there is no clear villain yet so I'm pretty much open to any theory.
Except for Jobbin being the supreme bad. He's cool but that's no end villain kit.

I'm pretty sure Jojolion is leading to Gappy realizing that he's "Josuke", his own person separate from Kira or Josefumi.
My personal theory (that won't actually happen) is that Jobin fuses with Joshu to create the true final boss, combining Jobin's intelligence and evil plots with Joshu's confidence and scumbaggery

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
tbqh he did say they're all the same person anyway
so Josuke, Josephmi, and "Josuke"
They're not the same person though.
"Norisuke", the leader of the Higashikata household, was born Josuke Melon Baller Supreme. He has no relation to the main Jojo (barring some lineage shenanigans currently untold).
Kujo Josefumi (an actual Jojo afaik) used his body to save Yoshikage Kira using the Rokakaka, the end result being a combination of the two, a new person we know as our four testicled protagonist "Josuke" "Higashikata", named after Yasuho's dog and then later being "adopted" by the Higashikata family.

I don't know where Jojolion is going, but I'm fairly confident Gappy won't survive it.
No worries. Neither does Araki.

I didn't know Kaato had her eyes split like Gappy. I wonder if she ended up fusing with the kid she got convicted of murdering.
Also remember Yoshikage Kira is the actual descendent of the Joestar bloodline in Jojolion.
Edit: Unrelated, but here's Act 4 exploding Diego fangirls.

I'm trying to figure out a theory that combines the rokakaka, the family curse, how norisuke cured himself (or jobin, as one of these instances of the curse has to be involved with kaato's use of the rokakaka), kaato, and the murdered child but nothing I think of makes sense.
Then I remembered that I am not Araki and I am doing this wrong.
Unfortunately I lack his capacity for this.

Everyone's going to figure out that the only way to stop the illness is to stop DIEGO. 80 chapters in, we're going to Egypt!
I love Jojolion, it's so insane that everything is on the table. Fuck, Kars might come back from space for all we know.

Yeah, just going with the "Jojo" as a name than a character.

Not a god damn thing. I know it's best to just roll with shit, but anybody with a brain is bound to take a second to ponder what they just read/watch.

Joshu will save the day and be the biggest hero in JoJolion and no one will care and everyone will continue to own him, forever
