JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 8 Volume 24 Storytime Continued

Everyone except our hero Joshuu

The dog

All of them except Joshu and Tsurugi
final bet

Jobbin and Kaato:^)

Underestimating Calamity

Surely this won't have any consequence whatsoever

I mean, Jobin's literally pursuing right now. It's over for him.

Doesn't even know who the fuck he's fighting against, can't even SEE him

Counts as pursuit

???

Nigga the inmate got shown a photograph against his will and it counted as pursuit.

This is the absolute shittiest death in the series due to the sole fact that we can't even tell he died until it's casually revealed in a dialogue some chapters later.

If Jojolion is gonna be about the ultimate long range automatic Stand, when do we get the ultimate melee-range manual Stand? No Star Platinum doesn't exist here

What's the actual play to survive this if WoU can just rain calamity on you unprompted? Just sit where you are and do nothing?

*teleports in front of you*
STOP PURSUING ME

make the final stand so overpowered that nothing could possibly beat it other than a giga asspull

why does he do this

Rohan could manage somehow

i have no intention to attack you.

your response?

Just sit where you are and do nothing?

Does he know?

Basically. Rai and Josuke have proven that as long as you simply don't do anything, you'll be fine.

Joshu sees both people he loves the most get fatally wounded and does nothing to Jobin

What was Araki thinking?

calamity causes loud car horn honk over part of your sentence

comes out as "I have *HOOOOONK* intention to attack you"

gg ez

Died because you lose all 4 litre of your blood in record time

KEK

Jojo's bizarre adventure is about Fate.

It’s hard to determine which JoJo deaths feel natural and which ones are forced, because Araki picks and chooses when he wants to give characters inhuman pain tolerance. Part 3 Polnareff would’ve tanked Diavolo’s punch in part 5 and Jobin would have survived this earlier in the story

Do you rike?

Reminder little Koichi survived a donut from killer queen

So where's Shirou?

MY FUCKING HERO JUST DIED
WHAT THE FUCK ARAKI

My hero will TANK this.

Reminder, in just a few minutes, Joshu just become the only man alive left in the house

the character is name Jobin

jobs

This is the exact moment Araki completely gives up. The plot's going straight to hell now.

I do not remember this.

He's alive btw.

KINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

THAT'S WONDERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
THE WONDER OF U!!!!

Will DP license this song for the anime

KINOOO

IF JOBBIN DIDNT SPERG OUT AND GIVE HIS DAD A STROKE HE WOULD HAVE TANKED THAT BTW

This is a cool awesome page on its own, but everyone is still processing how Jobin just died like that

The anime has to get the rights to this song somehow, not including it will be cheap.

ICONIC ICONIC FUCKING ICONIIIIIIIIC

I will say
this was a very kino way to reveal the stand name

HE ICONIC'D THE THING

listening to the namesake of your stand

Honestly based of Tooru

villain listening to upbeat cheerful music while something horrible happens

cliche but i'll allow it

ARAKINO

Man moment

FUAAARK

Is this the first time they acknowledge the connection between a Stand and its song namesake? Araki never did that before iirc

ICONIC

JOBINKEKS HE'S TAUNTING ON OUR CORPSE NOOOOOOOOOOO

THE...THE WONDER OF YOU???

me when my fucking jam that I named my soul after comes on (I just killed 2 people)

You have to admit, this is the coolest villain entrance next to Diavolo

youtube.com/watch?v=FYRksNPNVOk&ab_channel=ArcLight

nevermind fuck jobin this is kino

Toru would never understand the meaning of this song because he's a motherless freak, unlike Jobin

THE WONDEEEEER OF YOUUUUU

comes out of nowhere

has the most epic bestest strongestest stand ever

kneel to tooru

...on planet retard.

Did he name his stand based on the song because he liked it or was his stand always called that and he found the song later?

THAT'S OUR VILLAIN NO DOUBT ABOUT IT

Is this the only time the real world namesake of the stand is acknowledged

AIIIIEEEEEEE

Genuinely a pretty great page.

Why are we supposed to hate this guy again?

this is really funny out of context

projects three instances of my stand across the world

no matter what you do you are moving closer to me

Is the stand also sentient or not? I feel like people have different opinions on this.

GOLDEN HEART OF ROBLOX

It’s inconsistent, like everything at this stage of Part 8.

Stand abilities are whatever the fuck Araki wants them to be

you're trying not to pursue me? that counts as pursuing me

How the fuck do you beat this Buddhist philosophical dilemma in the shape of an instakill stand

Mitsuba is now Joshu's property now

If you consider Tooru's personality, I feel it makes more sense if he's the one controlling it. He's essentially living through the persona of the head doctor

don't worry
the payoff is huge

You such a fuckin' hoe

Turn 180 degrees and walk backwards so I’m retreating, which is the opposite of pursuing.

Why the fuck would he be standing the corner doing literally nothing if he was sentient and not just Touru piloting?

You promise? Promise emoji?

places one stand on the north pole

places another on the south

you can only move parallel to the equator or you're pursuing me

Rare DBanon word post

Its for the song

KINOOOOOOO

from the bottom of my heart
I 'Promise'

The Wonder of You better be the outro music for the second half (third third?) of Jojolion.

It's thanks to this page that I discovered the wonder of this song.

Please... someone. anyone... KILL THIS RIGGA NOW!

pursues you

jumps in your path

AHHH YOU'RE PURSUING ME DIE DIE DIE

SBR JoJos sure do love getting innocent civilians killed

First time Josuke killed an innocent man

What's the point of the pursuit thing if Araki plays so fast and loose with it? May as well have just had the ability be "I can curse anyone WoU sees with calamity and the closer you are to him the greater the consequences" and be done with it.

PSYCHOsuke kills trannies

That's our hero, no doubt about it.

Did you perhaps… Come here… Intending to ‘Pursue’ me? I see… So you are pursuing me… I understand. So then, the lid of this jar, have you tried opening it? What I’m saying is… Simply looking at that jar from the outside, you wouldn’t know for certain that what’s inside it is a ‘Fruit’, no…? Isn’t that right? Though it certainly seems to be fragments of ‘Something’… But looking from the outside, those may be potato fragments… or perhaps onion fragments… it may not look like an onion… but that definitely looks like it could be a large mushroom! How can you be so definitive in saying that what’s inside that jar is a ‘Fruit’? I’m explaining the fact that you ‘Opened’ the jar. Because you received that package, you opened the lid with your hands, you ‘Smelled’ it. And it’s because it gave off the sweet and sour scent of a ‘Fruit’… that you came into this room thinking it was a ‘Fruit’. You got all excited thinking ‘I’ve got an exclusive scoop here’, didn’t you? And then… you perhaps got some fruit juice from the lid stuck to your finger. Just a little of it. Or perhaps you were careless and licked that finger. If fate were particularly unlucky, there’s a rather good chance that when you were putting the lid back on, some fruit juice seeped into a small cut on your skin or your fingernail.

Araki doesn’t know how to write vague powers consistently. It’s why stand powers always get retconned or change. He just decides what he wants to do in the moment

Jousuke would be a menace if he was in Part 9

No sir

Preemptively min broken

NOOOO YOU CAN'T JUST PUBLISH AN ARTICLE CALLING ME FAGGOT THAT'S NOT FAIR YOU'RE PURSUING ME!!

This is the chapter were everything goes to shit.

You can say this about so many stand abilities. The obvious comparison is King Crimson who also has a very well defined mode of attack but that mode basically translates to "whatever Araki feels like it, it's Fate/Gravity lol"

tooru has a micropenis

Surely it's gotta be. That scene is basically made to be turned into one of those "episode ends with the outro music fading in early" bits they liked to do with Roundabout early on. Like youtube.com/watch?v=l3kdyR2deJM

I'll have you know, if you call Tooru a shitty character, that counts as [pursuit]...

Bros... Our third, fourth, fifith and sixth digits...

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON

The whole karma thing is pure nonsense. I hate this stand.

THIS WHOLE ARC HAS BEEN PEOPLE RUNNING PLACES OR SPONTANEOUSLY DYING FOR LOOKING AT AN OLD MAN WHEN WILL SOMETHING HAPPEN

xx8989xxx

this storytime was truly blessed from the very beginning

*Macropenis

holy shit you are right

An actual good moment, wow.

This is “fate”

bring back the 4444 at this point

This page fills me with rage. I didn't even like Jobin that much.

FUCKING ICONIC PAGE
THIS STAND IS CARRIED BY ITS COOL FACTOR

My fucking VILLAIN.

This is why I never thought Jobin was the main villain, Speed King doesn't have one tenth of the presence WoU has

Worst arc in the series btw

KORE WA

why are there so many jojo games on roblox

My eye? Already conic.

ENTER AURA OF U

No, that’s Yukako’s hair arc

That’s….The Wonder of U!

entire stand is just the chad stride walking around

Based.

I'm not even joking when I say that a lot of the anime games on Roblox are better than the slop Bandai shits out.

But enough about Yo Yo Ma...

Just realize he was doing a face reveal here

ABA was pretty fun

The Aurafarming of U...

Blue Hawaii < power gap < WoU < power gap < Clash and Talking Head < power gap < average arc < Yukako

people have forgotten how boring and overly long little feet was

Why does WoU’s face look like one of those old timey microphones

all of arhackis giant fetish shrinking stands sucked

We know, Araki.

control humanity with fruit

Everyone traced that.

A calamity is upon us...

Skibidi Dop Dop Dop Yes Yes...

SEND IN SKIBI DIDDY DIB YO DA DUB DUB

Blue Hawaii is everything bad with Yo Yo Ma multiplied by 20
At least Yo Yo Ma had Anasui X Jorin Kino, Blue Hawaii was 100% pure slop and filler

Reminder that a blind reader has no reason to think Jobin is dead right now.

WUBBA LUBBA DUB DUB

Except the fact that he said his goodbye speech to Mitsuba, lost 90% of the volume of his blood, and Joshu is holding the rokakaka.
Did Jobincopers have brain damage when JJL was serialized?

Looking cool is the only positive thing about Wonder of U (and its user by extension), they are shit characters with a bullshit power and a shit fight. They don't even have a cool motivation to do what they do.

I couldn’t pursue?

Send in…my fucking popsicle stick bug thing

blind

read

I don't even know what the fuck is going on in this manga or this thread anymore

Seriously though
What the fuck is that

BE ATTACKED BY MY NEVER BEFORE MENTIONED ROCK BUG

Why not just use your stand

What, you’ve never seen a stickbug before?

Literally defense mechanism for animal whose habitat is on the side of a cliff

It's a shitty, nonsensical, anticlimactic "death" that screams fakeout. Don't act like you instantly knew he was done for on your first read, please.

but then he would be pursuing josuke and thats against the rules

Instead of a rock insect fight, the entire volume of 25 should’ve been focused on Tooru’s backstory and what he was doing in the manga up to this arc. He was introduced far too late but it’s not like he didn’t have time to develop him a bit

Wonder of U can't do a whole lot actively.

Araki had fun playing with popsicle sticks the other day and wanted it in his manga.

Shhhh. Just look at how WoU looks doing all this shit that breaks every single stand rule.

SPIDERS!!!!!!!

No way he drew this fight and thought people would think it's really hype or something right? He was killing time to think of an ending.

go my pocket scarab

Uh????

To be continued! See you tomorrow!

test

Blind people don't read, nigga.

He drew this arc specifically for all the cryptoentomology enjoyers in the audience

Tomorrow's volume is going to be so shit...

icles

Asking me questions? That's a pursuit.

Volume notes:

When a friend of mine had a baby, a thought occurred to me. Having been born in the year 2020, that child will turn 80 years old in 2100 A.D.! Woah! That's the 22nd century. That goes far beyond the world of science fiction I used to read when I was a kid. And that child's going to see it. But what kind of world is it going to be? Based on the current state of things, the thought of the world becoming more terrifying is quite prevalent. But what would happen if we found something like the New Locacaca in technological form? Maybe even an organism that stands above humanity. In other words, what if we found something like a Rock Human?

Chapter notes:

95: I've been seeing a lot of people playing in the streets this March. They've been playing football, playing catch, skateboarding, the list goes on. Personally, I like it.

96: Even in the current situation(pandemic), manga artists are still drawing as usual. Stay safe, everyone.

97: I'm hard at work drawing, so you don't have to worry about me. Please continue to stay safe, everyone.

98: I keep an eco-friendly bag and mask at both my workplace and my home so I don't forget them, but I forget them every time and have to go back for them anyway.

Thanks OP.

Literally not a single sentence of this makes sense. What was Araki smoking?

this is like if instead of timestop during the final fight DIO pulled a sentient cactus out of his ass named "peepeepoopoo"

thx

vaguely glancing at my direction? That's a pursuit

Thanks OP, can't wait for the final fight against WOU tomorrow

See you tomorrow. I hate this volume but at least it is entertaining, tomorrow's volume sucks and is boring.

Thanks anon. I kinda like the stalemate if we are gonna get double sided interrigations like this. I really like this volume too even if some things could have been better handled like the family drama part.

not bad

It's like if Pet Shop fight happened simultaneously with The World's

we have finally reached "pandemic" chapters

Damn, we are already in 2020.

it's a shitty death, therefore he must still be alive!

This is the definition of cope. Characters don't say "i love you, thank you for everything" right before they live happily ever after.

Maybe even an organism that stands above humanity. In other words, what if we found something like a Rock Human?

Fuck off rigger

I wish riggers were real

Araki...

It’s quite telling how bad the asspulls and inconsistencies are in this part considering every JoJo series has them. Araki really went all out here

Dammit, I forgot how stupid that rock insect bullshit was.

Actualization. He fancies himself the rock on the hill but up till now he's never been able to get there. By controlling society with fat stacks he can sit at the top of the hill.

People are DESPERATE to paint this arc as something bad when so far it has been the best Jojolion has to offer
Let's remember this
WoU is perfect consistent and simple to understand, YOU ARE JUST UNIRONICALLY MENTALLY RETARDED
Paisley Park is also decently consistent you are just mentally handicapped
Jobin was never meant to be the main villain, you just think he is because you want to be seen as smart
WoU is a kino arc the problem is the overall narrative of Jojolion

kino

Ok sure but the rock insects still suck

Seems like you are the one desperate to paint it as ackshually good and consistent, thoughever. The crowd has spoken.
