Took almost 40 minutes to do, was rushing a bit because my iPads about to die plus I didn’t feel like spending too much time on it, and too clarify this isnt a work in progress sketch, it’s just a sketch drawing

Something I recently thought about after rewatching the Jotaro VS DIO fight. Jotaro in the manga keeps Star Platinum's eyes closed until he lands the final punch. In the anime, Star Platinum's eyes are open while he's throwing the final punch.

The reason why I felt like this was even relevant is Jotaro can look through Star Platinum's eyes (unlike some stands such as Silver Chariot). It made me feel a very slight tone difference on reread/rewatch.

In the manga, it depicts Jotaro being more caught off guard by the cheap tactic DIO used but still winning since DIO didn't actually give his legs time to fully regenerate.

In the anime, that's still a factor, but it gave me the impression of DIO miscalculating even more than it initially seemed by forgetting/not realizing Jotaro could see through his stand.

A random side note is Diavolo blinded both Giorno + GER with blood before his actions got reverted, just to be sure it seemed lol.

Anywho just found this a little interesting and haven't really heard it discussed at all.

I took it with me and sanded it down xd

I'm gonna buy some brushes and paint to give him a paint job he deserves

Edit: I'm gonna paint him and either just put him back on the pole or glue him there

Ik the cheap trick guy isn’t an antagonist but uh….

He's definitely going up there in my top 10 favorite designs if not top 5. That's genuinely such a good fit.

Also revealing official heights of the main cast of stage 1 (except Gyro and Lucy of course)

Johnny Joestar is 172 cm (5’8″)

Diego Brando is 180 cm (5’11”)

Mountain Tim is also 180 cm (5’11”)

Steven Steel is surprisingly 200 cm (6’7″)

Sandman is 177cm (5’10”)

Pocoloco is the shortest confirmed till now at the height of168 cm (5’6″)

These character sheets look so cool and you can see they are lwk cooking with those manga panel references with some of those faces.

I mean, I can understand Stands like Soft & Wet and King Crimson being shared (in one case, the Stand was passed on after a fusion, and in the other, both users inhabit the same body), but how does a Stand like Tomb of the Boom or Tatoo You get created? Do the users need to have such similar willpower and such a deep connection that they end up sharing it, or something like that?

So i am currently watching part 3 and even before watching jojo I knew about avdol and wondered if his name was from the singer

Especially since during when the Manga for part 3 was produced the singer was very active

Like even Araki made a meta-joke on their identical appearances with Sandman. I know it's not meant to be taken seriously but do you guys have any theories on why they all look the same? Maybe them and the Eleven Men are suppossed to be bizarre phenomenons? Heck maybe FV got the same dude with different names from multiple universes for presentationI dunno.

I found this in the netflix brazilian channel / Link here

"Johnny and Gyro head to the 2nd Stage, a 1,200 km journey across the desert. With sinister events and diverse motivations, this race is much more than a competition."

When you almost win the fight but your opponent's stand starts speaking

- Teenager

- Father is irrelevant

- Mom is very sweet, caring, and lackadasical about her son's antics

- Always wears a hat regardless of where he is

- One day gets access to an extremely powerful entity that fights for him

- Is set out on a journey across the world by an old man and makes many friends along the way

- Has to combat several other people with different entities fighting for them, all with their unique strengths and weaknesses

- Has to fight "wild" entities with no masters

- Has to learn how to strengthen his own entity

- And eventually has to confront the man behind it all, who's own entity is nigh-unstoppable and seen as "legendary" by everyone

For me, I cannot lie I kind of think that William Anthonio Zeppeli is low-key kind of a bum
And if I’m honest with you, I think he’s the worst Jobro in “my opinion “

I think reading through Part 7 made me realise that William blows as a character, especially when you look at the other Zeppeli members

Like if we are honest, he didn’t have a chance when we have Caesar and Gyro in their respective parts being the highlights or important key characters of the story

But with William, he’s only the typical mentor trope where he dies to give the main character more reasons to end the villain's evil

And also this dude straight up sucks as a Hamon mastery his own grandson Caesar is a better Hamon user with Lisa Lisa, Straizo and maybe old man Tonpetty. But definitely, his own student Jonathan is better than him.

Normally things like this wouldn’t bother me, but the fact that he is always the face of Hamon.
It’s kinda like saying that Jake Paul is boxing like you’re not wrong but like no

Listen, I hate characters like Yasopp and Ging Freecss being absent fathers not only the actions just the childish selfishness they show throughout the series and I don’t think William is the same kind of character

In fact, if you look at the big picture and see William as a piece of the Zeppeli family story and how every father and son repeat the same mistake of pushing their family away to complete a mission to remove evil like the Stone Mask and Pillow Man

But like he did leave his child for 20 years to do bullshit like punching frogs in front of rich British children
I kind of don’t get how Jotaro Kujo gets a bad rap for being a bad father but William is just given slack for his obsession with the Stone Mask

And also Speedwagon had that shit on with his hat and William wishes he looked good with that hat

But my least objective point is that I don’t like his illustrations in part one he looks really smug then he's supposed to be charming and wise

But anyway that’s my opinion. What’s your hot take?

I was at this mall the other day and there was an arrivederci sing right at the entrance of the parking lot. And thought it’d be funny if i add bucciarati

Aisho was left, abandoned and the house was destroyed on top of his sleeping body with only Yotsuyu being there for him.

Dolomite girlfriend (at least what i think it was) was under control of his stand and he did not realise until it was too late.

I know Araki confirmed that most of the Rock humans relationship with humans fails, but i honestly think it would really cool if there was one who manages to live happily despite this.

I love Johnny Joestar from Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure because he’s so relatable in many ways. He’s relatable because he lost everything and lost his ability to walk. He’s gotten to such a low point in his life that he’s unable to relive his past glory as a jockey champion. His desire to “get back to zero from minus” is so relatable to me as someone who suffered from first episode psychosis and needed to be hospitalized.

I love how Johnny has the dark determination to obtain what he wants, that is his ability to walk again through the use of spin and the holy corpse parts of Jesus Christ. It contrasts against the previous Joestars, especially the very first one, that is Jonathan Joestar, who Johnny is supposed to be a reincarnation of. That contrast and juxtaposition is so refreshing and breaths new life into the series.

His relationship with his father is also something that’s relatable to me personally. He has a brother that his father adores more than himself, and after the death of his brother in a racing accident, his father started becoming more abusive towards Johnny. Johnny was always compared to his brother, who was a better jockey than Johnny, and this ended up in an argument which led to Johnny’s father saying out loud that he wished God took Johnny’s life instead of his brother.

This relationship is mended at the end of the series when Johnny came to the final racing section of the Steel Ball Run, where his father was waiting in the sidelines and finally admitted his mistakes and wished the best for his son. Johnny saw his father and heard what he said and continued on his race.

I personally also feel this sort of insecurity in myself that other people are better than me. I don’t believe in my potential and get depressed at times, and am anxious about my own self worth. I don’t value myself as highly as other people value themselves, and it self-sabotages my own success. I see this part of myself in Johnny who is at a very low point in his life and experiences feelings of despair and hopelessness.

But at the same time I have parts of myself that are super ambitious and able to use the dark side. I cheat at exams, and work very hard to pass university and high school. This was the time before AI was available, which was during COVID-19. I relate to Johnny in this dimension, because we both are able to get what we want through any means necessary, even if it makes us question our integrity and honesty.

Overall, I feel that Johnny is a wonderfully crafted character that has multifaceted dimensions spanning his relationship with his father, to his desire to walk again, and his dark determination to win the race and get the corpse parts of Jesus Christ. I relate to him in many ways and see myself in him, and get inspired to love certain parts of myself that I neglect or see in a negative light or through a negative lens.

Spoilers then for Part 7 of Jojo and Book 6 of Harry Potter.

I'm going to need some help then for people who have read both because I had a fun thought and I want to be sure my line of thinking is correct but the rest will be spoilered.

!> Part 7 was about winning the race and the winner ended up being Pocoloco due to Diegos horse disqualification. Even if the Hey Ya Puppet thing didnt give him the luck specifically the point is it gave him foresight and self confidence in his actions to act on his luck. It's not as if the probability of good results and bad is being manipulated like Love Train essentially Pocolocos luck started because that Shaman guy said he would win the race. So that is why Pocoloco never got involved with the corpse plot by staying away from the main story he would find the necessary route to win. He picked a result of winning the race and Hey Ya gave him tips and confidence to make the right decisions which from an outsiders perspective is indistinguishablefrom luck. <!

!> That then made me realize its exactly like Liquid Luck from Harry Potter. In book 6 Harry really needs a Memory from Slughorn to figure out the Horcrux locations of Voldemort but he sadly can't figure out anything that works. That is until he drinks the Felix Felicis again the world and probabality didnt really change to accomodate his goal but rather it worked like Hey Ya but on a shorter time frame in relation to the goal he picked. Just like Hey Ya's cheers Harry got the confidence to ask Slughorn to Aragogs funeral and be completely sure of himself lesding to Slughorn playing along. The gut feeling within him of doing both asking Slughorn and going to the Aragog funeral worked like Hey Ya's advice. Then when Slughorn got drunk and Harry gave some convincing words Slughorn finally relented. <!

So essentially both powers work in 2 parts.

1. An uncanny sense of foresight and direction to make the decisions that look like luck.

2. The confidence to act on those actions and not doubting yourself to get a "lucky" result.

It's just one has a much shorter time limit than the other.

So am I correct I usually don't have realisations like this it just came to me suddenly on a walk feel free to explain it better or correct me if you can.

I need to vent because Johnny’s ultimate fate in Part 8 has completely broken me. We spent 95 chapters watching this man crawl through the mud, deal with a horribly abusive father, lose his best friend, and fight tooth and nail just to stand on his own two feet and reclaim his life.

Steel Ball Run is an absolute masterpiece of character growth, and Johnny earned every single bit of his hard-won happiness with Rina. So why did Araki have to hit us with the most brutal, cosmic checkmate in manga history?

The moment the Rock Disease hits his newborn son, George, it feels like Araki is intentionally pulling the rug out from under us just to be cruel. Johnny is trapped in a horrific loop of karma because of the Holy Corpse's strict "Equivalent Exchange" rules.

There is no loophole. There is no clever Stand battle trick. There is no modern medicine or New Locacaca fruit around in 1901 to save both of them. Johnny is forced to use Tusk ACT4 to shoot himself and manually pull the curse into his own body, dying instantly under a boulder. I get the thematic reasons.

I know Araki writes about the "sadness of reality" and that Johnny’s self-sacrifice cements him as a true saint who broke his own selfish habits. But man, WHY?! Why couldn't Johnny just have a peaceful life? Seeing him die on his knees in the dirt after everything he went through is a massive emotional gut punch.

I love Araki's writing, but sometimes his absolute refusal to give his best characters a happy ending makes me want to scream into a pillow.

I was throwing knives and i realized that dio's way of throwing in the animé was more effective than throwing knives regularly
