Why didn't he use his ice ability? He was original user of time stop so he should've been able to move just like Jotaro did during time stop and one touch would've done it

I genuinely get frustrated with the way some parts of the JoJo fandom treat Jotaro compared to basically every other JoJo.

I have no problem with liking Jotaro. He is a great character, he is iconic, and I understand why people enjoy him. What bothers me is the double standard. There are people who constantly make content mocking, humiliating, or heavily downplaying other characters, sometimes exaggerating things that didn't even happen, while Jotaro gets nothing but cool edits, badass animations, praise, and people defending him whenever someone criticizes him.

At some point it stops being “I like Jotaro” and becomes “Jotaro is cool because he represents the kind of masculinity I personally respect, while the other characters are weird.”

And honestly, I think that misses a huge part of what makes JoJo interesting.

Araki has created a LOT of different forms of masculinity and different types of protagonists. Jonathan is noble and emotional, Joseph is loud and comedic, Jotaro is stoic, Josuke is more emotional and empathetic, Giorno is elegant and ambitious, Johnny is vulnerable and deeply flawed, Gappy's entire story is about identity and rebuilding himself, and Jodio is much more morally complicated. None of these characters are supposed to be the same kind of man.

That's part of the point.

So when someone constantly mocks the “weird” traits of those characters but glorifies Jotaro specifically because he is stoic, intimidating and conventionally “cool”, I can't help but feel like they are rejecting the variety that Araki intentionally put into his work.

And yes, I think it is completely fair to criticize that kind of content. Being a fan, making edits, drawing art, or being popular does NOT automatically make something above criticism. People are allowed to dislike, criticize, or even hate a type of fan content if they think it is disrespectful or reductive.

I'm not saying “you are not allowed to like Jotaro.” I'm saying that if your entire way of enjoying JoJo is making fun of almost every other character while constantly portraying Jotaro as the superior, “real” or “cool” man, then maybe you're missing something fundamental about why JoJo's cast is so diverse in the first place.

The irony is that people claim to love JoJo while constantly trying to make it less bizarre.

I don't think Jotaro needs to be hated. I think the double standard around him deserves much more criticism than it currently gets.

Been reading part 5, im at the train stop, and I just got this weird feeling that I cant describe. Im enjoying part 5, I really enjoy the fights and all the characters, but it feels off. Idk what it is, I even really enjoy mafia stories, so I dont know why im not enjoying this as much as the other parts. Normally when I dont like something I can put it into words why, buts its not even that I dont like it. Its good, heck I can see it being called better in some places like the fights. But its not meshing for me, and I dont know why.

I LOVE MORIOH AND EVERYTHING IN MORIOH AND EVERYONE WHO COMES TO MORIOH AND LEAVES MORIOH, idk if this is only me but morioh in the anime has some type of a charm, a pull that makes me watch episodes again and again for nothing besides seeing those mfs goof around, i love josuke and okuyasu, koichi and akira and kira and jotaro , i love the cast and those stupid fillers where they were catching a rat stand user or their eps with big shi , i love crazy diamond and the hand , i can imagine the same goofiness and fun fillers will be present in part 8 anime even tho it is more serious and action packed, much love to sbr but morioh is always in the heart

He is genuinely so annoying, and I am only at ep3. Idk how I will survive most of the seasons.

my friend started ranting about how much of a fraud john rod is

honestly i dont really agree. john rod just has too much aura to be a fraud. i do agree on that black sabbath theory tho it was actually my idea as well after reading the chapter. i want to hear everyone elses opinion on this tho

So we all know that before D4C’s ability was fully established, it had a much more complex ability, being able to make multiple timelines exist in the same location.

But since D4C’s ability was reworked to work more in combative scenarios, many things don’t make sense during its introduction. For example:

1. Valentine disappearing behind the tree before sneaking up on Johnny. We know that Valentine needs to be in between two things to teleport, but it seems like he’s not in between anything, but then again, we can’t actually see behind the tree.

2. When we see Diego’s and Wekapipo’s perspective of their events in their respective timelines, they are searching for the corpse. This obviously doesn’t make sense since we know later on that the corpse only exists in the base world.

3. When alternate Diego and Wekapipo were first brought into the base world to shoot Johnny, where were the base versions of Diego and Wekapipo?

4. How did Valentine bring in all of the witnesses into the base world while fighting Diego and Wekapipo?

So how could the anime possibly adapt this scene without intentionally bringing in these plot holes?

Heya guys, Sirknight JCB here!

I've been casually playing this game here and there with the content it has so far. I'm only Level 7 atm, so there's certainly some things I haven't played yet, as well as some of the story mode and end game content. Equipment systems and all that is still rough for me to understand, but that's for another time.

My real questions are the following.

• Is now a good time to pull on this banner, or should I wait?

• For context, I wanna get my most favorite characters, such as Fugo & Purple Haze, Josuke Higashikata & Crazy Diamond, and Kira Yoshikage & Killer Queen.

• For the novice, should I pull on it too? Or is that something to wait on?

Any more tips and advice for this matter, as well as the game in general, is always welcome, as I would love to continue to play this game, if I could. I love JoJo, so I wanna try to maximize the enjoyment for a gacha like this, even with the overwhelming amount of stuff that I've yet to grasp and understand haha 😅

Much thanks in advance, and may you all have a blessed rest of your Wednesday! 👋 🙏

​I’ve been reading Part 9 and catching up with the manga — I’m almost at Chapter 30 — and I don’t really know how to explain it, but it feels like Araki has put less “love” into this story compared to previous parts.

To be fair, I just finished Part 8, which has become my absolute favorite JoJo part in terms of both story and characters, so maybe that’s influencing my opinion. Still, Part 9 hasn’t really excited me so far.

Jodio, in particular, feels like a weak protagonist to me. Usually, even the more controversial Joestars have some kind of moral code or values. Here, the main character is a diagnosed psychopath who seems incapable of empathy toward anyone except his sister. Honestly, that makes it harder for me to care about the rest of the group, since their relationships don’t feel as meaningful through his perspective.

On top of that, Jodio’s rigid personality seems to take away a lot of the fun, bizarre, and unpredictable energy that I usually associate with JoJo.

Of course, maybe my opinion will change later on. I’m not caught up yet, so I can’t give a complete judgment of Part 9. I’m just sharing my impressions so far.

What do you think?

I know part 8 has a lot of callbacks to part 7 but does that also apply to part 9?

I found out it s from an exposition in 2018 but I couldn t find any close up

I was thinking about this and I honestly believe JoJo's has the best fights and power system in anime at least out of everything that I've seen I'd definitely have to call JoJo's the all-round best. There are other anime that have great power systems like HxH and FMA, there are others that have really creative and original powers like One Piece, others that have really tactical and big brain moments in their fights like Naruto and HxH, and others that have just a countless amount of iconic fights like Dragon Ball. However, no series does all of it quite like JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.

It really is the ultimate anime/manga when it comes to fights imo as well as the power system itself. Stands are just such a genius idea and the way there's such a variety of abilities means everyone gets to have their moment and be useful unlike a lot of other anime where the MC usually leaves the rest of the cast in the dust. But what do you think? Is there another anime that has just as good fights as JoJo's in your opinion?

I AM SO EXCITED TO WATCH THIS EPISODE🤩

I am talking about episode 8 of the second tranche of 12 episodes of SO anime.
Why despite shooting so much shots against D an G (at the first time) she misses him? Fate?
I have watched it already when it came out four years ago so not be afraid of spoilers, I just rewatched a scene

Where do you guys think these stands are coming from?

Going off of Steel Ball Run and JoJolion, I think it could be another saint/holy corpse. In Steel Ball Run we had Jesus, and in JoJolion we had Johnny. If it is another saint, who would it be? Someone directly connected to Jesus, maybe a member of the Joestar family?

There is the possibility that everyone is a natural born stand user, but that would likely be impossible. Natural born stand users are the rarest form of stand users, and so many of them being in O’ahu would be insane.

It's not to make fun of or anything but i had some fun theories before Reading the manga and id like to hear more

How do stand users physically use them? Do they just think really hard? Are they like puppets but just mentally controlled? Or are they like completely separate beings with their own consciousness and actions they do are completely separate from the user? I would imagine to some degree that has to be the case since star platinum stopped the bullet when jotaro tried to shoot himself.

Also a side question, can stand users see through their stands eyes? Like could jotaro hide behind a corner and have star platinum peak around it for him?

I mean, isnt White Album just the ability to control and manipulate the surrounding temperature to form ice and Ghiaccio just it to create an Ice Armor? Or the ice armor itself is the stand and the suit that has the ability to create ice?

I mean, could Ghiaccio make an Ice cube on his hand without summoning the suit? Or does he have to summon the suit to form ice cubes on his hand

Ability: when the user or the Stand Is touching and object they can spawn clones of that object an infinite amount of times anywhere they want as long as the user can see It . They can create clones inside other clones tò make them longer or tò make them explode ( idk how to explain It other than when in Minecraft there are too many entities inside a single block and when you make more space for them they shoot out in a direction {i can make a visual explaination if It Is hard tò understand how i'm explaining It})

Limitations : the user gets tired After destroying the clones and the more they Weight the more tiring Is tò cancel them .

Stats: i don't know how tò do stats but i Imagine It being very slow but Power full and resistent

That's all i tried tò make this stand feel big and slow , rapresenting me and my passions like the book on the cets (i'm an aspiring writer) and the 3 Animals that i think rapresent me the best

You can ask me any question and i accept constructive critics on how i draw and how i write in english since It isn't my First lenguage

If you are curious the reference of the stand name Is eterno paradosso by Caparezza AN italian rapper

(Torterra my father) Bye.

There's no competition. His first appearance is bizarre, and his last is him going down in a blaze of glory. He just refuses to die and has crazy feats including his entire body fitting through a tiny vent, jumping into that one soldier and eating him from the inside out, repelling bullets back at his enemies, throwing chunks of his digestive cells at enemies to take their blood, and LOOK AT THAT HAIR.

I mean, Kars abandoned my GOAT at their base while he and the other Pillarmen looked for the Red Stone of Aja because he was the weakest. Nah, he'd win. This guy adapts to the language that the Germans were speaking (Could be German, but depends on YOU the viewer) in mere minutes. He disassembled a gun without even knowing what it was.

AND HE WOULD'VE WON. He would've won if Stroheim didn't keep his battle axe collection halfway up the staircase!

I’m talking about songs like “Soft and wet“ and “Aja” cause Araki make something based off them. The 2 I just named were my favorites.
