- From 1987 to 2020, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is perhaps one of the most notable long-running 80's manga besides Berserk - so let's take a look at how far it's come from an artistic perspective!

Well technically.... it’s both
😁
dont worry then next chapter of jojolion will have way more lore and potentially stay haveing more lore and we hopefully wil get the news that all parts will eventually be animated and hopefully again if they get animated hopefully its wayy more tripper than before
you're next words... i very much know them this is what you'll say Nani Joseph Joestar is here, JoJo will one day have its own fashion Brand i think but you must be right!
Nani Joesph Joestar is here
Thank you a lot for your work, it helped me a lot with my school project. And can I translate it into russian and write an article for Russian jojo fans with mentioning you as the author and giving a link for this video?
JoJolion hits the perfect balance between battle shonen and uncanny horror manga with its art and fights and I love it for that
Sounds like I really need to read jojolion
This just reminds me of that one section with the stand that makes creatures go in a straight line towards you. That was terrifying

Part7 marks the point where Jojo went from the weekly Shonenjump to the monthly Ultrajump, suddenly Araki had more time to work on the series chapter to chapter and it shows. The art style, pacing, and story all became more refined. Imo this is what led to Jojo part7 being the considered a masterpiece.
Not only part 7. Part 7 and 8 are masterpice. Dont forget part 8.
@@NormalExploiter endless calamity arc kinda interesting, btw have you already read the chapter 101 ?
@@NormalExploiter Definitely, I'm hella excited to see the way Araki will manage to resolve it
and why in my opinion, part 7 and 8 are so god damn beautiful
@@stuckonaslide three stages of JoJo: part 1 and 2. Second stage: parts 3-6. Third one and the best one: 7 and 8. Part 8 is underrated
Haters could hate all they want but they still can’t deny the fact that Araki is an absolute genius!
What is this talk about JoJo haters? I've never met anyone who hates JoJo
pullazorza
Actually a very few insolent dumbasses do.....💀
They can deny that. It's all a matter of opinion.
He is a master in storytelling and style
He is very creative mangaka.
I miss part 3 when everyone had Bread for sholders. Can we get an F for the amount of Carbohydrates this man gave us.
@GenesisGems just one character thats just a throwback, jacked, noble, and like, six feet tall
Nah I thought it was kinda cool but it was super unrealistic and felt pretty forced to make them look strong even when they had no need for it. They have stands for a reason they don’t need to physically fight people lol. Plus some of the characters in the newer parts are actually pretty jacked it’s just that it’s not very noticeable compared to parts 1-3
I always called them bionicle arms
@@bolson42 and again, we can take a conclusion that you cant compare jojo's world with Real world. It's completely different. You will not see everyone speaking Japanese in Egypt, America or even Italy. Im ok with every art style. It's a development right? For me Part 1-3 are the most "normal" one, although i knew every adult men shouldn't have a big giant muscles. But yeah part 1 - 3 has the most normal looks and clothings. Part 4 - 5 have the most "proportioned" character with weird clothes although there are some of the most stupid character design in part 5, you can see a corn guy with a fishing rod or an over big chonky piece of shit like polpo which no one even know is he even a human and no one in the series are asking or wondering about it. Part 6 - 8 are kinda messed up, eeeee you know the reason, you have read it right or you haven't dont you
wait
i thought they were cheese wheels
I like to think Araki is more of an artist rather than a writer. Obviously his writing is still incredible but his art is perhaps some of the best to come out of the 80s. Araki's sense for fashion and colors is truly one of a kind.
Exactly, I think jojo will always be remembered for its eccentric, distinct art and then its crazy, humorous and quirky storyline. People either love or hate the jojo art, but regardless there's no denying the absolute originality and intellectualism displayed
Hes gotten to the point as a writer that he is nearly as good as a writer as he is an artist with Parts 7 and 8.
@@hollyg022 That's what made me start getting into JoJo. It's just so unique. There is quite literally nothing else like it. I've even gotten people who thought it was just gay and boring to watch it and they loved it. People give it a bad wrap.
@@brandonfleming7118 one of the reasons why I watched jojo is because it looked gay as frick. I thought it'd be a good laugh and I wasn't wrong and I don't regret watching it. I love jojo and i cant wait to see the ways the art will change in the next manga/anime part even if it does make the show look like gay strippers
damn eveyone hates gays
I feel Araki really opened my mind to male sexuality. His outfits, to me showcases strength and confidence and for the first time I really considered the Male body beautiful. Emotionally I feel here in America, that the woman are the pretty ones and we men just have to get work done, like a part of our identity is shut off from the start. So much respect to Araki to be so unique and confident and to bring his stories and world view to life.
Well as a heterosexual woman i think the male body is really really beautiful 😏
I mean yeah, JoJo and working out got me to appreciate the male body twice as much.
@@jery3385 alright bro maybe you should add a "no homo" there
@@rev1640 fuck that, I won't.

GUYS THE JOKE IS REAL!
WE DID IT!
Part 7 with the TALL, slender model like characters
Johnny being the shortest JoJo with a below average height is probably crying
well, Araki has some inconsistencies when it comes to draw a character in his correct height, with Koichi being the best example.
@Black_Rhino 241 well at least Giorno is only 15 so he's got a few more centimeters at least.
Considering both his fathers were both over 6 feet and all
Hold on how tall is Johnny???
@Black_Rhino 241 Isn't Giorno 174cm ? (So 5'9)
@@johnnyjoestar9569 IIRC it's never stated in the manga but I believe I read Araik saying somewhere that he was something like 162 or 164cm. So about 5'3 to 5'4
I really love part 6-8 style a lot
Me too
Same, especially the evolution in part 7. Part 6 was like the perfection of the style Araki was trying out in late part 4 and part 5, while part 7 was a rebirth
it's stunning
I still like part 8 because araki art style when it comes to comedy.

The entire JoJo manga is undoubtably my favorite work of fiction of all time, for the art, weirdness, characters, humor, themes, and just everything else. It even inspired me to start drawing more and make my own comics. The anime is only up to part 5 rn, so I can't say the same, but I like it about as much as Hunter x Hunter 2011 and that's some rather high praise.

Tbh i like part 4's artstyle the most cause it has balance between being buff and being skinny, i just cant handle seeing parts 1 - 3's characters being so skinny it just disturbs me
While I really like Jojolion's style, I wholeheartedly agree that the old style characters redrawn in the new style are... not pleasing.
I can't picture a skinny Jonathan fighting against tarkus
Well, if you ignore the fact that they were buff before and observe them, they truly look incredibly beautiful.
I like the buffness. I like the bulk. I like the slimmed down look too. I just like all of it, for different reasons.
@@peperino2167 SKINNY TARKUS WHEN?
6:23 NO. YOU CAN'T JUST PASS THAT BY ME AND EXPECT ME TO DO NOTHING. I *DEMAND* YOU SHOW US WHERE TO SEE THE FULL CLIP. MASTER ARAKI DANCING IS ALL I NEED IN MY LIFE. _PLEASE_
I’m so sorry, I played the full clip, it’s all that someone managed to record at JoJo’s 25th anniversary 😭
I astrally projected me into another dimension
I was gonna ask how they has been around and how the fandom hasn’t memed it to death yet
Ah taking in the American rock dance
I’m caught up to part 8 definitely my favorite by far, the design level is at the highest it’s been
Absolutely agree 👍🏻
I can agree with you that I find JoJolion to be by far my favorite part of JoJo altogether.
Fun fact: Araki uses Renaissance art as an inspiration source for his character's poses
Araki is easily one of the most artistic, amazing mangakas. He truly puts both his spirit and heart into everything he does, and the fact that he’s evolved throughout the age has really shown that he is just an amazing person. I will always love Arakis way of doing things, from his art to his story writing.
You just explained why I love JoJolion perfectly. I’ve tried to explain to people why it’s one of my favorite parts but your description of it completely captures what makes JoJolion great. You’ve just earned a subscriber my friend
Thanks so much!
One thing I hate about most people perception about JoJo is that they think JJBA is just a memey franchise with no story value at all when in reality it has a rich story often underrated by those people
A fate choosen by his fashion sense
JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOJO!
Araki's art evolution is the best example of self improvement over time as an artist
Araki inspired me a lot as a young artist who was doubting my art skills, i suddenly gained so much confidence and I'm now able to step out of my comfort zone and try new styles without being scared to fail. I really look up to him as an artist AND as a person!
me too man! I love him so much
American intro of Jojo parts 1 thru 3: Miserlou
American intro of Jojo parts 4 onward: Pump It by Black Eyed Peas
This deserves more likes.
Seriously, it's the best comparison I've seen people coming up with so far!
"But Haraki-sensei of GyoGyo's Wonderful Adventure is handsome and doesn't grow old. He's not a gorilla, but an immortal fairy."

Part 4, 6, and 8, gave me some vaporwave vibes because of its aesthetic kind of artstyle
Hopefully Araki won't die before he's done
Is that Berserk reference?
U forgot hes immortal
My man is in the best physical condition I've ever seen for someone who's in his early 60's. He clearly looks after his health so I don't think there's anything to worry about.
Absolutely loved this video, it helped my girlfriend understand why I love the series so much, and makes her want to read/watch it all now too. Thanks for making it!
Glad I could help!
Imagine having a girlfriend, Couldn't be me.
@@bandabanana4939 pain
part 4 is kind of my favorite for the reasons u used in this: it REALLY feels like he's coming into himself in this one and just having a great time. you can tell how much he loves this part (and more specifically the characters- or A character in it ahaha) because of how many times he's gone back to it in spinoffs and art stuff
Ngl Yasuho is my peak of jojo fashion, elegant streetwear, and also she's an awesome character
5:14 "with the slender, TALL, model-like characters"
Diego and Johnny: ...
6:53 this is you when you started Jojo
Relatable
3:06 looks fammiliar idk why
I loved stardust crusaders art style because it fit so well with the vibe and story. I was a bit taken back when I watched part 4 and beyond, but I’ve grown to really love it. It fits the story and characters much better. I couldn’t imagine Giorno looking like Jotaro lol
6:23 where can i find the full clip
I love the modern art style of Jojo series, especially part 7 and 8. It's just so artistic and beautiful. And that's probably why Jojo got a collaboration with a lots of fashion related brands.
Dang, Araki made a whole manga series to show off his Spotify playlist
The only thing that hasn't changed was the out lines of the faces.
Well... the lines on her nose and the big lines on her cheeks disappeared
People that say they don’t like JoJo because of the art style is easily the most bullshit excuse someone can give on not watching it
Jojo’s bizarre adventure is literally the definition of *D R I P*
araki also has an insane knowledge in real life fashion lines back in the 1980’s, cant tell me thats not what lead him to literally collabing with *Gucci*
6:23 when your body remembers all the crack that you have taken your entire life
The stardust OVAs are from the early 90’s and finishing in the early 2000’s
You're correct, my bad!
I love Arakis style so much. It's so beautiful but also has a sort of surreal?? feel to it with the combination of empty backgrounds and unnatural colour choices in some of his pieces
The video is done really well and I love the fact how you emphasized on Araki's style in part 5. The only thing which is a bit annyoing is the fact that you didn't mention how Araki named characters after designer brands in part 6 - Hermes, Emporio, Anasui Narcisso -(reference to 2 designers), Pucci, Miu Miu (Miuccia Miuller), D and G, Donatello Versus(he's obviously named after Donatella Versace), Guccio, Gwess(Guess), Viviano Westwood (Vivienne Westwood) and etc.
Part 6/early part 7 style is my favorite, the faces have a good balance of detail and expression and the backgrounds often look really nice.
Araki style has so much growth baked into it. And the fact that continues to NOT look like Industry Standard Moe is always always refreshing
A big part of that I feel is because he is an eccentric man who started his career in the 80s, he's old (even if he doesn't look like it) and probably doesn't get why new audiences like that style so he's just out here doing his own thing.
when I first watched jojo, I thought it's weird because of the artstyle, but my eyes adapted to it and eventually I find it beautiful
JoJo really brings the visual in story telling. The story is good but I will remember it for its flamboyant unbridled beautiful elegant masculinity i couldnt see in any other anime or comic. I will forever love jojo for its amazing fashion, poses, and colors.
It's also important to mention that Araki references a lot of classical art - especially for poses. Once I learned that, a lot of the posing actually made more sense. While it's not realistic, it's not meant to be. It's literally a stylistic choice and we sometimes forget that this is art first.
It's also important to acknowledge the mistakes he made in this video but you didn't notice cause like all the other mindless zombies watching him you're too stupid
Me seeing the evolution of the art style : *dear lord they're deflating!!*
That killed me xd
This is such a relaxing, beautifully narrated video. I love all of JoJo's, and especially the changes in Araki's style, but what really sticks out to me with this one is your calm voice and how passionate you explain the matter! Cheers mate, you did such an amazing job!
What i also love about jojos bizzare Adventure is that everytime you run out of good music Araki comes around and shows me new ones in form of his very creative Stands and his taste in music never fails.
Also its very motivating, while before i often had Problems getting Inspiration for my own Drawings im now trying to draw unique Stands after music myself, at the Moment im creating a custom Stand based on Queens "One Vision"
Despite same face syndrome occurring in part 8 it is by far the most beautiful and detailed of all the other parts. IMO it out does 7. Every large panel is just beautiful and so pleasing to look it. Not to mention how clean everything is. Part 7 and 8 is the best Araki’s artwork has ever been. Although I will forever have a soft spot for the big muscular style of earlier parts.
Really cool! But there’s something strange with the audio. My left ear is feeling weird
Is it louder in the left?
@@alexenterprises1 Yeah but isn't a big deal to me
Okay, I'll have to use audacity instead of adjusting settings by ear from now on, I had no clue it was off tbh. Thanks for letting me know btw!
left half ataxia my man
Art is why i watched jojo and i dont regret watching a masterpiece
God i love DIU, its the turning point of the series for me in every way, i also apreciate the artstyle change mid way through the part
Great video! There's really nothing like Jojo's art - in any period. The sheer scope of the designs (barring the brief "same-face" period) is one of the many reasons the series is so special and lasts in the zeitgeist.
I keep forgetting how buff Josuke used to be in early Part 4
i love jojo so much not only because of how good actually its BUT BECAUSE OF HOW PASSIONATE ARAKI IS WHEN HE DOES HIS WORK
I love how Araki-sensei evolved his art style throughout the years, it's the most beautiful manga I've ever seen ❤️❤️❤️
Can we just talk about how the thumbnail shows how good araki has gotten at drawing?
I think Jojolion has the best quality artwork, like you can see how he’s really gotten better as an artist, but the characters lack expressions! That’s why I like parts four and five best. It’s a good mix of technical skill and expressiveness.
there are definitely still a lot of different expressions in jojolion, its just that araki doesnt exactly show that often in his exhibition pieces for the part or volume covers
Wow what an incredible detailed video thank you so much for sharing!
You pointing out that Jojolion has all the same lifeless expressions to make them look gorgeous is probably why it feels to me like the most beautiful and deep part of the series and makes his writing more impactful.
The art style is just a love child between Stan lee and araki change my mind
0:11 LMAO HE IS EATING KAKYOIN
HEHEHEHA
AND AB- KINGU CRIMSON
Even though this is a seven minute long video my brain was so intrigued by it that it made me feel like I was watching a 30 minute video
What’s going to be interesting is when the English hardcover release of the manga catches up to part 9 in the coming years. That just means English physical readers will be relatively current. Can’t wait for it!
I love Giorno so much, I drew him on a T-Shirt
I'm glad people enjoy his new artstyle. Me, not so much.
I will forever love the manime style of part 1, 2 and 3 and the style of part 4 and 5.
i love jojo's art style all through part 1-8 and i love how it changes in every part. me personally, i love looking at fanarts made by other people of any fandom because everyone has a unique style of drawing and this is what made me love jojo, compared to other animes/mangas, even more because the art style constantly changes and, for me, it's really satisfying to see it change
I’m loving these art analysis you’ve been making. It’s cool to see your understanding of how styles reflect ideas in the story. I don’t know too much about Jojo outside of the anime so this is interesting stuff
Thanks my dude, always a pleasure!
It's crazy that, if you read Cool Shock BT, Poker Under Arms and Gorgerous Irene, he evolved from "that" to the current Jojo we have now. Especially Cool Shock BT.
I like how the anime kinda follows along with the manga. part 1 has more smooth cheeks like how it was in the manga. While in part 3, the crusaders are so angular and look so detailed. And part 4... well part 4 has its own art style
(Part 4 is one of my favorite parts don’t worry)
4:22 when araki decided to make a one piece character:
This is going to be a video I come back to time and time again. As of commenting, this might be my 5th time watching. It's just so well made. Succinct, even for a 7 minute video. You pull the most important weeds out from the history books, and expand ever so slightly such that every part gets their time to shine.
I may even still watch this after part 9 is long done publishing.
You've done a great job summarizing the evolution of jojo from part 1 to part 8, and I look forward to see how Araki's art evolves even moreso during part 9's publication.
And Part 9 is Just Araki's Peak in Almost Everything he done with Jojo.
I can't wait to watch all of Stone Ocean, but I'm weary of how part 7 and 8 will actually look in animated form, since it's harder to differentiate between similar characters when animated.
Crossing my fingers and hoping for the best!
Ok that was a very nice video keep it up my man!😊so the jojo’s art was for me very refreshing to see from part 1 cause before I heard of jojo’s I was getting bored of the usual mainstream anime/manga art style so I got into jojo’s very quickly & was in love with it. It also got me into more manga with buff manly men like FOTNS, Toriko, Kinnikuman & others, it also got me to dive dipper into older manga from the 60’s-80’s & more different art styles.
So I love the art of parts 1-6 of jojo the most imo part 7’s art is still good & got very detailed which I loved however part 8’s art my lest favourite cause the expressions on the faces stated lacking for me & they started looking the same. it’s not bad though it’s jest not my favourite out his art, which is why I will always say his art changes not improvs IMO but I still love Araki & his art/work❤️🤘
This video made me appreciatte the genius and love Araki puts on his art. Brilliant.
You had such a soothing voice, I couldn't help but watch the video until the end, even if it spoiled me a little bit of part 8.
In my opinion jojolion has the best artstyle. I just read it recently and haven't finished it yet.
Araki really knows how to draw luscious pair of lips
Holy SHIT Alex, great video dude I’m seriously such a big fan of your channel.
Thank you so much dude! I make vids for people like you 👍🏻
Part 8's art is so zamn beautiful
i love araki's art so much.
I can’t believe this playlist comes with an anime!
Wanted to say I very much like what you’re doing here! I love good breakdowns or studies of stuff especially art! So excellent work you put in thank you! (But I might have to check back some point when it gets to spoilers I’ve only seen up to part 5 anime unfortunately... 😅😢)
Araki is a vampire cannot lie about it
Gotta continue with Stardust Crusaders.
