Jojo afterparty/wake
Only moment in JoJo to make me cry, farewell to the best protagonist in the series
Gyro went out like a man.
I guess I'm a pussy for crying during Jonathan, Joseph (yes, both fake-outs), SHIZA, Iggy, Kakyoin, Abbacchio, and Jolyne's deaths.
Johnny, the spin is spinning in such a ratio that it's infinitely close to zero.
"Something that exists simultaneously in the based world and cringe worlds."
If you can't see it and it doesn't exist... then you probably can't control it either. The only thing that's there is the "infinite rotation".
And because of that, it can cross through anything! It can even go through parallel universes! Right now, it's coming from that nail of yours! It can transcend the logic of D4C Love Train!
SBR has been so kino bros
two threads
Nice, I think Johnny and Gyro complete each other and the manga would've been worse off if either were gone
I was sad over Jolyne dying, but I was in shock of everyone dying.
no Shigechi
No pair of Jobros has been more kino
Although most other Jojos have had a party instead of just a partner in crime
Alright, place your bets on what Jodio's dad's name is. Here are a few suggestions:
Giorno Brando
Diav Olo
Richie Pucci
Kars
i dont actually think she has a stand
Too obnoxious for me to care. Keicho's death and Okuyasu's fake-out were arguably sadder.
He won't show up again
I'm sorry but stabbing someone in the eye was too much for me
Based emotionalCHAD
Who?
RIP
howler somehow gets access to the lava rock next chapter
the cops arrest dragona and put her in a female only prison
the part is really a remake of part 6 not part 5
are you guys existed for the next universe reset for part 10?
Jolyne or Irene?
So much for that
I would genuinely clap
Gyro passes on to heaven with no regrets due to finding his journey with Johnny and saving Lucy fulffiling
Yep, didn’t abandon his sentimentality and it saved everyone. SHARTporio lost
His name is not important. People should stop expecting le epic OG universe references everywhere.
...the dying contest.
SHARTporio lost
Pucci?
Emporio won though?
When will the Phantom Blood movie be found?
what
what wake
did you cheating faggots finish storytime already while 4chin was down without me!?
Um
I read until the first volume of Jojolion.
He missed it
Gyro did his job. Marco is freed from an unjust execution. Gyro won
Jonathan > Dio
Meanwhile Paco and Usagi join the Mafia to try and Break Dragona/Charming/Jodio out
Part 10 then ends up replaying both Part 6 and 5 as the A plot and B plot
Both plots join together when Josuke/Alt Polnareff shows up
Bravo Araki
I-i am so~rry...I've read volume 21 and 22 without (You)
why do you use 'Hamon' instead of 'ripple' and 'Spin' instead of 'kaiten'
gyro jobbed
We are aware.
*Part 9
Gregorio objectively won.
delinquent girl
Jolyne’s been around the block if you what I mean
Because I use whatever sounds the coolest.
emporio OUT OF NOWHERE
when we start part 8
It was a good volume but the fight was still hard to follow and seemingly nonsensical at points.
I'm glad I'm taking another look at part 7 with a more critical eye, makes its strengths and weaknesses more apparent.
Thoughts on this little guy?
If Anon Babble died for good, would we continue the storytime on Moe? There was already a JoJo thread getting decent traffic(for them)
The President conceeded to his power.
what is the difference
The President fears the mouse
I hope not.
Gyros's stand!
Cute
So is the pulp fiction moment next volume
Yes.
I like to believe Part 9 will do its own thing. At the very least, the supposed Part 5/Giorno parallels will very vaguely be in the structure of the story rather than being direct references/callbacks in the style of including Jonathan, Zeppeli, The World, Josuke, Kira, Killer Queen, Morioh, etc.
One never went to prison
Should we really have a jojolands storytime when the story hasn’t even finished?
anime only's are going to hate part 7 and we are going to get the worst "araki forgot's" in the history of the series
...
LOSER cunt asshole, Johnny probably cared more about Gyro’s death than him
Yes, I am too lazy to read it alone
I was assuming dbanon would hang up his hat at the end of Jojolion
Has never been wrong.
I remember DBAnon saying he wanted to do it. If it happens, then the storytime will end after volume 5.
the png of the emoji chart is over the file limit
Remember Diego? Me neither, feels like he died ages ago
Question, will we finish jojolion storytime before jojolands new chapter drops or after? I want to know cause i might want to read jojolands on my own before next chapter drop
one to have 3 kids the other to only have 1
Diego had the best performance against Valentine so far.
deserved more screentime and a punch rush
Jojolion is pretty damn long
27 volumes, so I don't think so
Of course, do every available chapter. It's the only way to bring back the hype Jojolion killed
No, the storytime will be on JJL volume 19 or 20 when the next chapter drops.
SBR probably has the most character casualties.
Get ready lads, we're entering the next Jojo peak in the next few days
You were posting in the /ghost/ room with the rest of us while Anon Babble was down, right? You didn't consistently use alt universes, right?
the next Jojo peak
Yeah, the negative peak.
Nobody told me where to find it...
Alright thank you, so i assume we start jojolion on april 30th correct? man if there wasnt an outage we'd be like 7 volumes into it...
i might just read all of jojolion with you guys and then see how it will be with jojolands, god i hope nothing happens again to Anon Babble during part 8 storytime
He doesn't like the kino Johnny vs Valentine stand off
Remarkably shit taste
I'm still holding onto my part 8 schizo prediction stock
Emporio will return to use equivalent exchange so he can exchange the new universe for his original
What? Mountain Tim, Diego, Hot Pants and Gyro? Even Phantom Blood has 4 named character deaths.
next few days
I thought OP was referring to JJL.
I used both. Both jojo threads were almost dead
i didn't wanna believe but these trips can't lie
that's it, i'm doing a pucci and we will keep reading from the place we stopped in a new, better world
we start jojolion on april 30th correct?
That's right.
i was on moe and /ghost/room and ghost was slightly more active but still both were pretty much dead, i think i saw drawanon post in one of these and thats it, no fun when there's nobody to talk to...
blah blah *ASCII* blah schizo list fuark **ASCII femcel *ASCII*
/ghost/ imploded after the colorposting.
Mountain Tim, Diego, Hot Pants, Gyro, Weka, Sandman, the Boom Booms, Pork Kid, Dr. Ferdinand, Ringo, Blackmore, 10/11 Men, Mike O., Axl, Valentines, and ZA Diego and I'm probably missing more.
Gyro died fulfilled and content by helping his beloved achieve his goal
The biggest "fuck you" he could've given to Gregorio
Jojolion is peak until it loses its footing after damo
Every art I see of Johnny is him looking like a whore.
Still worse than Shiza's death btw.
Johnny boypussy >>>> that stupid snot nosed kid, sorry Marco.
See you race cowboy...
so Ball Breaker/golden spin can make attacks travel between dimensions right? but how it's depicted it looks like its effect is to break through love Love Train, which is not another dimension, but a different effect altogether
Valentine is not even using his dimensional hopping power, just Love Train as a shield
it's confusing what Ball Breaker can do and is actually doing
When part 10?
Johnny is the bicycle of the series, right after Yasuho.
Johnny became a terriorst
Gyro became his own father
Kek imagine Gregorio's reaction to seeing Johnny arrive at his house with Gyro's corpse.
I fucking knew this would happen.
Fitting for the second sluttiest jojo
about two months from now since we need to get through part 8 & 9
Wonder if Johnny poured his heart out about how much Gyro meant to him to Gregorio
Nah, Gyro became sentimental for someone, something his father would never do.
Johnny did become a terrorist though, yes.
Gregorio probably told him to get out his fucking house.
We are gonna do Part 11 as well right? It's almost done anyway
bruh
desperately try to get Gyro's body back
bring it to his father to honor him
Gregorio probably screamed at him to fuck off
doesn't get the catharsis of seeing Gyro off for the final time
Being Johnny is suffering
Yep. It was fun while it lasted.
Which Jojo has the weakest stand without their final power up not including hermit purple because that's too easy. I'd say crazy diamond since it's ability is hard to use offensively.
Not being able to stand makes you inherently more lewdable.
Didn't the Zeppeli's fuck off before the race was finished anyway? Imagine Johnny traveling the world to try and tell the Zeppeli's what happened only for Gregorio to sperg out and scream at him
Crazy Diamond has star platinum tier strength, what are you on about. Stone Free has the least raw physical power after HP
Stone Free has the least raw physical power after HP
Golden experience was raped by a fucking long range stand anon....
indeed
actuall yean its quite puzzling
Yeah but I feel like being made out of string allows you to do a lot of crazy shit which I value over pure punch ghost strength
I hadn't even thought of this before, it's too sad...
Johnny did become a terrorist though, yes.
God give me a spin off manga of Johnny Joestar:Stardust Crusader and his adventure from NYC all the way to Japan to save his wife
I'll take that over something like the Hol Horse spin off
It lets you do crazy shit if you're willing to get your hands dirty. In addition to the string stuff, Jolyne actually fights alongside it. However in certain scenarios it could be the weakest. For example let's say you have to fight 1 no-name part 1 zombie/vampire. You could conceivably get injured if you had Stone Free. Meanwhile something like Star Platinum you could all but fall asleep and let the punchghost take the wheel until sunrise.
tl;dr part 6 Dio was right, there is no "weakest" stand and it depends on the circumstances and how you use it.
For a black and white image, it's really easy to shrink the file by lowering the color depth.
This is 4 bit.
I sorta agree with dios take but I also disagree because a lot of stands are only good when you have set a trap. Like fun fun fun isn't doing shit unless you are picking the terms of engagement. Basically while any stand can be good when I think of strongest I think most versatile in that they can be very powerful in a multitude of different situations.
Along with this certain stands are objectively the strongest like WoU is by far stronger then any stand that's come before it no question.
invasion of the Valentines
12 minutes of Jolyne?
Imagine Gregorio after receiving the news.
My sentimental son ended up trying to assassinate the president of America?
Would he feel anger? Pride? Guilt?
How do I do that in mspaint
I would gladly kill a child if doing so resulted in sex with Johnny
Gregorio...
I would gladly kill a child
Anasui...
In terms of physical stats, it's Gold Experience. Easily. It got manhandled by a long range stand. That's just humiliating.
In terms of overall capability, I think it's November Rain. While its raindrops seem extremely powerful, it also seems to really lack versatility. It's the most rigid Jojo stand we've seen in a series where flexibility is power.
Stands probably form something closer to a tier list. In many cases you could use a stand one or two tiers lower to outskill a higher-tier stand but some matchups are basically impossible.
I'm not sure if you can.
I think the lowest you can make the color depth go is 16 bit.
youtu.be
Farewell....cowboy
In terms of physical stats, it's Gold Experience. Easily. It got manhandled by a long range stand. That's just humiliating.
No wonder it kept getting asspull-ups.
Where are all the POSES? So far there's only Blackmore standing on the rain and Valentine standing in Love Train but they're not really posing they're kind of just standing there.
Now I want to see survivor vs love train
Catcha 2WATR
Whole world goes insane and kills eachother
I look like this and pose like this.
Whitebro...
anon is still working on it
If he wasn't sentimental he would've left Johnny to die. He didn't need Lucy for ball breaker to bypass the barrier.
Also Johnny had a steel ball and had the golden rotation spelled out for him. He could've tried it himself but I guess he thought Gyro had it.
Johnny did think Gyro had it
"What do you mean 2020 was 5 years ago?"
I know in real life, the short cut isn't just a straight line to your destination but I feel that "A detour was our shortcut, the shortcut was a detour" has a deeper meaning than that that I cannot understand right now.
Stand of the spin. Also he didn't do shit
We need to wash down the end of jojolion with something
I wonder how he'll react when he figures out gyro died in America.
Gyro and the best drip in the entire series. Only Jotaro comes close.
Nah, you just have a soul.
Years of emotional chastity have rendered me unable to even cry for IRL stuff like my brother dying alone on a foreign country, or my father trying to kill himself. I WISH I could cry and be emotional but physically it's extremely hard for me to do that, even showcasing affection is difficult.
Anyone who promotes the "Men don't cry" bullshit deserves to be shot on the spot.
What if Gregorio seduced Johnny?
You can still feel for them can't you? You don't need to cry to articulate your feelings
I feel like the poses in SBR's later half are usually reserved for title chapters and volume covers. Though Valentine had a few iconic poses during his scuffle with Diego and Wekapipo.
See you, italian cowboy...
He would feel nothing because he's not a sentimental bitch like his son
Based.
Are you all excited for /our/star to show up next part?
He's the only thing that Araki didn't fuck up during JoJolion
cant wait
early gappy is kino
I don't think it's possible to live a sentimental free life. The death of a son would enough to break through his frozen iron shell
I am excited to have in-depth discussions on the inner mechanisms of his sexual biology
almost in May?!
I'm excited for Raiposting to be temporarily restored to its former glory
"And jojo is about to turn 40 next year?!"
sbr vol 1 official english releases in a few weeks. anyone else excited? i can't wait to start reading it again, but this time properly in a book lol
cute spinnygga
Jobin
Jobbin
Jobbing
Good foreshadowing on Araki's part. You guys really should've seen it coming
Who the fuck cares if you feel invested enough in a character that it gets you emotional?
Live your life king. Enjoy it's emotions. I pity the dead who are bereft of the fulfilling emotions we can feel.
I teared up at the True Man's World and plenty of things.
I cried when I tried to nurse back a bumblebee back to health with some sugar water and all that and it passed away. Between feeling life's highs and lows, and trying to feel as little as possible, I cannot imagine the latter, and live the former.
Always know that I, anonymous, will stand by you and your power to feel the emotion in this world.
Manga parts I cried at
Jonathan coming home to Danny's grave
Okuyasu re-aliving
Reimi and Arnold ghosting away
Jolyne dying
Kek, what a jobber
crying over fictional characters
NGMI.
Not crying for the sake of God
spoiler
Yes he did, what are you on?
Everyone dying is the only thing in Jojo sad enough to warrant tears part 8 would count too but that elicits immense rage.
Okuyasu re-aliving
It's him talking about Keicho and his brief banter with Josuke that really gets it for me.
Jolyne dying
It hits harder for me when I listen to Stairway to Heaven while reading it.
I laughed when Jolyne died but when Koichi got dounted my heart stopped for a moment.
Also, Josuke dragging around Okuyasu while Hayato tells him his dead and refusing to accept it is very touching.
One of my eyes are always crying
Leaky Eye Luca . . .
Maybe I'll like him more on a reread. Maybe not as much as DiU Josuke, however.
Jotaro...
I WEEP, every time pee is wasted...
Kakyoin thinking about his parents and how they must be worried sick thinking he just ran away one day always makes me tear the fuck up, man. Shigechi also thinking about his parents as they're dying also fucks me up on a reread.
Yes he did fuck up him.
Halfway through he becomes an emotionless rigger-killing machine
And also THAT in the ending
he's*
T-t-thanks, Anon. I appreciate it... I will definitely have emotional breakdowns when Gyro's ghost shows up and Johnny reminisces about his entire journey.
Kek I just realized we're getting emoji galore tomorrow.
I still don't understand why we are rooting 'against' Valentine.
He's a wannabe tyrant whose word isn't worth the paper it's printed on, as we'll learn in two days.
Got himself killed so Diego could store the corpse for the sake America
Seems like a hero to me.
Valentine No.1928425....
Countries outside of America matter
Also child rape is bad
Also also if it weren't for him my hero Gyro would still be alive.
Countries outside of America matter
Lol, lmao even.
Also child rape is bad
Lucy killed his wife.
Also also if it weren't for him my hero Gyro would still be alive.
Lucy made the goddess of victory jealous.
I pray for the emoji anon.
His suffering will at least end soon.
lied about getting johnny another Gyro
Valentine a SHIT
He's a cuckold and he tried to rape a married lady.
Then he should've retaliated by killing Steven. An eye for an eye is the only legitimate type of justice.
Why are they even fighting Valentine? Do they need the corpse still? Johnny is on the cusp of movering his crus even after losing the corpse, doesn't seem like he actually needs it anymore.
We know, everyone
He would've gotten his Gyro in hell__
Araki...
Johnny has become a terroriest as we already established.
They're obliged to protect Lucy since sending her after him was their idea
At this point, it's too late to go back (And they already vowed to save Lucy). And there is no guarantee that Valentine would just let them go and not sending an aramada at them at some point because he's a lying fucker.
"A detour was our shortcut, the shortcut was a detour" has a deeper meaning than that that I cannot understand right now.
I think it's like saying they missed the forrest for the trees, lacked the proper perspective. What they thought was a shortcut from their limitted perspective didn't get them what they truly aimed for, and vice-versa.
At the least Johnny still wants the corpse.
That's the bus you took here. This is the final stop. There's no going back anymore.
Y..you're-! That's right, you-! You died on patrol because I took that bribe!
For some reason this is the only moment in all of jojo that never fails to make me cry, not the moment of his death, but this whole scene in the afterlife specifically. I don't even care about abbacchio that much.
teddy bear :(
Do you think Funny and Johnny could be friends under different circumstances? Could they settle their beef over a game of uno?
What the hell can they even do? If they stay in the county Valentine will probably keep sending assassins or just straight up branding then as terrorists because they might be a risk. And Gyro is a foreigner, his entre country would be fucked by Love Train.
got a scratch from the fish. It exploded on his neck
got a scratch from D4C. It stopped going up when Johnny shot the train and moved Lucy away
got a gunshot from one of the Valentines. It went up to his heart (as a "black" hole)
got cut by D4C (again). It went up to his heart (as a "white" hole)
Did I get it right?
I can't see a reality where Johnny and Valentine are friends.
Pretty much.
I wish Gyro had used Tusk as a replacement teddy bear
I still dont like sbr
Okay.
son refutes his beliefs
dies in defiance of everything Gregorio believed, completely satisfied in himself
the royalty Gregorio debased himself for is overthrown
The only thing he won was his life. He lost everything he dedicated himself to, and was surpassed in ways he'll never understand by the son he tried ingraining slavery into.
Does D4C looking like that imply stands acutally do change as the user ages and SP's scarf changing wasn't just cosmetic?
This doesn't look like a main character stand, it looks like a Jojolion volume villain stand.
He looks the same even after Valentine respawns many times so it's damage from the Spin.
I mean, we see Sex Pistols age too when hit by Greatful Dead, so yeah. Also Silver Chariot when Alessi got Polnareff.
Forget if this is in the manga too, but the anime showed Heirophant Green as much smaller when Kkayoin was a child.
Honestly I'm reading ahead and I forgot how good early Jojolion is. I'm a sucker for amnesic heroes
He's the only thing that Araki didn't fuck up during JoJolion
Are you kidding? He lost his entire personality half way through. Arguably Giorno tier
Your loss
Johnny is a manly man.
girl
Ruined
Imagine if Johnny was just a blonde Jonathan in a wheelchair.
Would have been cool.
Just finished reading CDDH. It's ok. It has its moments but I'm not a fan of how it takes place before Part 4 and Josuke has OoC moments like when says shit like "I'm going to kill you!"
Anon...
t.Johnny
I thought it was just regular Johnny
FUCK I MISSED IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
i didn't know the site was back until like 20 mins ago
This cover marks the beginning of the era where Araki is particularly obsessed with this pose and expression.
Gyro > Will. A > Shiza.
Underrated joni outfit
Objective fact.
I hope they keep fat midget Valentine in the anime.
They should just squeeze in some clips of him working out.
Josuke has OoC moments like when says shit like "I'm going to kill you!"
To be fair, Josuke said that to Enigma Boy. Of course, "I'm going to kill you" meant "I'm going to give you a fate worse than death" in that case. Idk about CDDH.
Gyro says women are bad luck
lets Lucy on his horse
dies afterwards
What did Araki mean by this?
This hurt so fucking much, bros
gyro is spiritually homosexual and shouldn't have risked his life for anyone but johnny.
Women ain't shit, only look out for your bros
...and hotpants i guess i don't really care about her
I really like how Araki portrays and paces Johnny's grief. Feels like so many deaths are over and done with instantly, whereas Johnny's grief takes over for the remainder of the Valentine fight.
Was Pocoloco and Sandman being shafted becuase of the magazine change or something else? They began with so much focus but then disappeared and Sandman died as another mook while Pocoloco winning the race is relegated to a text box.
Gyro will always be the main spot in Johnny's heart
I think Araki wasn't sure on what he wanted to do with the story until it switched to monthly release and he was given time to mull on it. Pre-Scary Monsters felt like following the same formula as DIU, kind of aimless
This doesn't look like a main character stand
Because it's not.
This doesn't look like a main character stand
It's not even Gyro's stand, ain't it the steel ball's?
Yeah, it is what makes Gyro's death feel more meaningful. It's not immediately brushed over like certain deaths up to this point but rather serve to increase emotional stakes to the fight and make it more personal for the protagonist.
ain't it the steel ball's?
Not really. It's just the personification of the perfect spin.
So it's nobody's stand?
An ability can take the form of a Stand. It doesn't necessarily have a user.
Cute friend for Tusk
No seriously, what did Gyro mean by this?
He knows he's dying and he's saying goodbye to Johnny by telling him he enjoyed their adventure across America.
same here
He's the only thing that Araki didn't fuck up during JoJolion
Is there a chance they met up again in heaven?
it's Gyro's spin, so by technicality Ball Breaker is his
heaven
lmaooo nigga ain't you the fuckass who tried to defile Big J?
It was quite a fun adventure... right Johnny?
textbox = shafted
No. Pocoloco won big and didn't have to suffer the FATE tax.
Is there a character besides Jonathan who died without being a big sinner?
me being a missionary with Hot Pants because the lamp's genie misunderstood my wish...
UUWAAAaaaaAAAAA GYRrrOOOOOOOoooooo!!!
All of this is Johnny's fault BTW
You didn't list the one moment I ever cried during Jojo, which was the ending of part 6
Who the hell would cry with any part 3 death? The pacing and delivery is awful, it's hard to take any of it seriously.
Saying "men don't cry" is just as retarded as saying "I wish I could cry"
Crying is neutral. If you want to cry it's unhealthy to keep holding it, but if you don't want to cry it's also unhealthy to wish otherwise. Just let your body do its thing and stop forcing reactions
Josuke and Jolyne? They never did anything wrong
I cried over Avdol's and Iggy's spirits floating to heaven during storytime, because it genuinely felt like we lost friends during the adventure as everyone mourned. Matter of fact, it was the first time I ever cried over them. Sometimes being in the moment with others just brings it out of me when it normally doesn't.
tusk act 4 would break through the dimensional pearly gates
Was it manga?
I hate the part 3 anime passionately so maybe that's part of the reason I didn't feel the deaths. 90% of that anime felt like filler. It was episodic and predictable: new enemy shows up, the entire gang jobs to that enemy until the last 3 minutes when one of them suddenly proceeds to nodiff the villain, rinse and repeat.
By the time they started dying I was actually happy that finally something was fucking happening and it felt like some semblance of stakes was starting to manifest.
Ireneverse ending is Emporio finally having the time to grieve over OG Jolyne being completely gone. So I guess that could still count as part of Jolyne's death.
Who the hell would cry with any part 3 death?
Me :p
Irene and OG Jolyne are one and the same. Emporio cried because it was finally over.
Same soul sure but it's not the Jolyne with the memories Emporio shared with.
It's Gyro's stand. It's a stand achieved by mastering a discipline, like Dragon's Dream.
wishing to cry is wishing to not be emotionally numb and feel the way others feel
If you wish to cry you're already feeling it
Crying sucks and it's caused more by despair and helplessness than actual "feelings"
I can feel just fine without crying
I like that Johnny cries but is still proactive
So why Wekapipo only had Left-Side Ataxia but no Right-Side Ataxia?
Something about the left side of the body being used more
a diego and narancia found recently in the wild, casually walking around
How absurd...
but is still proactive
He takes action eventually but he's not proactive by any stretch. Johnny and Gyro just roll with the punches.
No. The manga and Araki's commentary in JoJoveller both state that it represents the steel ball's infinite rotation. It has nothing to do with the spin user's soul. If the technique was achieved through someone else, Ball Breaker would have still appeared, therefore it CAN'T possibly be considered Gyro's own Stand. It'd actually be way less ridiculous to call it the steel ball's Stand.
She doesn't need a stand. She's 200cm tall and 250kg. She's probably got Hamon.
Don't ask me how I know this but she's working for the CCP.
It'd actually be way less ridiculous to call it the steel ball's Stand.
And whose balls are those motherfucker?
b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-but the steel ball is an inanimate obeject.... It doesn't even have a spirit, let alone a fighting spirit...
I said it earlier, a Stand doesn't necessarily come from someone's fighting spirit. In this case, it is a visualization of the steel ball's energy.
Not like we haven't seen plenty of stands that are completely independent or hop from user to user before
the steel ball's energy
and WHO put that energy in WHOSE balls??
