The Many Faces of Pannacotta Fugo
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 жов 2024
- I've made a few videos covering Pannacotta Fugo and this is because he's one of the most unique characters in JoJo. As due to Araki canceling his plans for him, he was left partly unfinished in the original source material. But this isn't all bad as a few people people have attempted to fill in the blanks where the source material left off and I wanted look at every version of Fugo's backstory.

Why are you in every comment section???
hmm
Rudol Von Stroheim Maybe it’s some sort of inside joke or something
Being bad at math in front of Fugo is the equivalent to serving Gordon Ramsay raw fish.
ITS RAW
*Chuckles* Im in danger.
Imagine serving Fugo raw fish

Meti: "So which of Fugo's backstory do you consider canon?"
Araki: "Yes"
@Chonkster Same, don't care what anyone has to say, I am taking it as canon.

Something tells me Meti really likes Fugo.
Nagram So do I :>
something tells me meti REALLY likes fugo.
Heh... Maybe Meti is kinda like Fugo
Yes he does! Since he made "The Glory of Pannacotta Fugo" and he said that Fugo is one of his favourite characters
same
I feel like the back story of him snapping on a professor calling his desire to go to his grandmother's funeral "childish" just cause it's probably the most relatable thing for him to snap over.
I know I can definitely relate to it
of course he would want something so "childish" HE WAS 13!!!
I can see that and I like the argument but him snapping over probably something trivial in GHGR is just a bit more interesting.
Since we can't seem to decide on whether Fugo is a strawberry or cheese, I propose a compromise: Strawberry Cheesecake
SkeletronPrime655 Mistas favorite
I love cheesecake
Its ramadhan and im fasting right now..im gonna get those cheesecake for iftar..problem is the cake shop is also on lockdown..ughh
But... He's Pannacotta....
@@screemingslay5415 I can't tell if you're joking or not but in case you're serious, I'm referring to his outfit. Because of the holes in it people have joked that he's dressed like a piece if cheese, though it's a actually supposed to be based on a strawberry.
Meti giving Fugo more exposure than the Part 5 anime ever did
The anime did however animate his backstory. The manga only told it through next, never showing it.
They have to animate Purple Haze feedback. It would fit so well for a OVA movie
Nah man we need another Rohan OVA
@@Notorious_G.O.O.S.E I wanna die......
DP: Rohan goes to a gym and a church, take it or leave it
GHGR: Am I a joke to you?
Luis Morales Acevedo They haven’t animated Dead Man’s Questions either which was made by Araki himself so they probably won’t animate Purple Haze Feedback.
Fugo :"con you be normal for 5 minute!?"
Purple Haze :"GAAAARGH"
Fugo is such an interesting character on-paper, it's a shame that he was so screwed over by the plot. His one fight in Part 5, he's not even that important in- it's mostly there for Giorno and Abbacchio's stories, his dynamic with Narancia is underexplored and while I understand Araki's reasoning, the traitor plotline being scrapped means there's zero payoff to him leaving, it just comes out of nowhere and even then he's not the focus of it, it's meant to be there for Narancia's sake. It's cool that other materials have expanded on him (PHF in particular did so much for him), but when taking only Part 5 into account, he's just there in the background, gets a couple interospective moments, and then peaces out and the plot carries on as if he was never there, hes never even so much as mentioned after that point. It's a pity.
*Probably wrong but TL;DR fugo is an interesting character but was completely fucked by the plot.*
*The only thing close to it (which I think is only in the anime) is that narancia mentions that he wouldn’t mind fugitive calling him dumb.*
Fugo has to be one of the most realest characters in Jojo
I swear under utilized characters with a lot of potential are just enriching to explore outside of the material they didn't get used much in.
One thing I'm a bit confused on is, is Purple Haze really uncontrollable? The time we see it in Man in the Mirror Abbacchio says something along the lines of "if Fugo was here he wouldn't let it behave like this." And while I haven't read Golden Heart Golden Ring, in PHF the only time Purple Haze seems to act outside of Fugo's control is when it's snarling in the arena at the beginning and Sheila E makes a snide comment about not keeping it behaved. But other than openly showing some of Fugo's more primal emotions without the self control and intelligence, I don't think it's the case the Fugo can't actually control him. It seems to do what he wants just fine, yet I see most fans take the approach that Fugo can't control it. I think it's more so the virus he can't control, as once it's out it spreads with no bias, but Purple Haze itself is fine.
Good points. Guess Purple Haze can act on self accord when Fugo doesn't give it the orders, like your brain goes out and lizardbrain takes over
My perspective is that Fugo can mostly control it but more like a dog owner tugging on the leash when their dog starts barking at someone.
I see that especially when Fugo commands Purple Haze to attack the mirror in the fight with Illuso. Any other Stand would have just punched the mirror once or do something with more finesse like writing a message or pointing at the mirror, but Purple Haze does a Stand Rush and only attacks the mirror with its last punch. Also, when Purple Haze finally attacked Illuso, it would be fine to just burst a capsule on him and let the virus do its job but Purple Haze lashed out and punched him repeatedly, despite Illuso already being very close to dead.
In short, it seems to me like Fugo can give commands to Purple Haze just fine but Purple Haze will do things its way and will act on its own in stupid, obsessive and violent ways if not carefully commanded
It is controlable somewhat in PHF as Fugo has matured
@@arthurpprado Not to mention that moment where Purple Haze just stopped what it was doing when it noticed drool land on its thigh, and it started obsessively cleaning itself. That's probably the kind of stuff that happens when Fugo just lets Purple Haze stand there idly.
in this case when people refer to fugo as being unable to control purple haze i think most people are referring to its ability/the virus. the virus’ indiscriminate killing is one the stand’s main cons, and the only part of the stand fugo himself cannot control.
Fugo is one of my favorite characters in Jojo’s, so much that I tried my hand a making strawberry panna cotta and it was one of the best meals I’ve ever had.
One of my favorite character, one of my favorite dessert.
10:47 "This is an anime adaptation of this scene, and Araki was likely not consulted on this backstory"
That's not true. The backstory was actually very directly approved by Araki. The anime team worked on the backstory themselves and sent the proposal to Araki for approval. I don't know if their proposal was the exact story we got, or if Araki suggested changes until the idea was finalised, but he was 100% consulted on the idea. I got this from an Anime News Network interview that was done with the producers of the show, if anyone wants a source.
Smack DownBeef Source?
They got approval but he wasn't consulted on the backstory, he just approved of the story itself which is the same for all of the different approaches to Fugo's backstory.
"We talked at length with the scenario writer about how we would like to approach telling Fugo's backstory, and then we brought our finished proposal to Araki-sensei. We thought it was very important to detail Fugo's past for this version of the story, so we worked hard on it."
"In terms of our general approach to creating original elements for animation, they have to be something that will enhance the work's appeal. Even though these elements are new, they must never step away from the intent of the original work. That's the angle we work hardest on, always thinking about how the audience will feel about the story."
They made a story and brought it too Araki who likely just approved it like he's done for other projects involving him.

@@MetiNotTheBadGuy Ah, OK. What you said in the video came off to me as "DP never talked to Araki about including the backstory." Sorry for being pedantic.
Steps to make fugo's back story canon
1.) Add a detailed and nice story that connects to the original outcome
2.) Make it believable to the reader's perspective
3.) Add Diavolo's death at the end
Ive always loved Fugo's character regardless of how little development he got in the source material and despite all these different backstories but in a way i think becuase of all this there is a mystery surrounding the character which i like as well as the fact he has the coolest stand in the franchise
You've made more videos on fugo than fights he was in
I hate that you're right

@Joseph Carter May or may not be the same type of Stand as Star Platinum
@Joseph Carter 😂😂
personally i think the anime adaptation has a good take on it, fugo had the "gifted child treatment", which as a result of immense pressure, being given expectations that you can't reach and unattainable self standards, leads to mental illness. it's traumatic for young children to be put under so much stress especially when the psyche is so easily influenced during the sensitive periods of development (infancy up to age 6) which, if a child is deprived of the appropriate support and affection from parents, can become a "problem child" i.e. anger issues. that's around the time where fugo develops his anger, but it isn't uncontrollable from the moment he starts to struggle with it. university for someone fresh out of high school is very mentally taxing (from personal experience), never mind a 13 year old with immense pressure to excel as a prodigy. he never really got to live his childhood, so he likely lacks that emotional bond with his parents which explains why he's not as distraught over being disowned as you'd expect someone to be. as for the "snapping" in university, it's a mentally unsound child's reaction to a traumatic event. the years of him repressing (important note: NOT letting out his anger in other ways like crying or talking about it etc. he literally bottles it up which is what causes an emotional snap) his bouts of anger followed by his professor forcing himself on him, which is by definition, a traumatic event, caused his brain to react in a way that just. released EVERYTHING. and he was the one at fault for that because he PHYSICALLY hurt someone despite the psychological wounds on fugo being.. irreparable, at best. so, his suffering was once again dismissed and this just adds onto the stuff he's already dealing with, and it snowballs. i think it was snowballing from the point AFTER he snapped from bottling up all of his anger for so many years and his brain releasing it in a means of protecting him from the professor's advances, fugo literally being the "fight" in fight or flight, when he only ended up in more danger (no guardians, being expelled, arrested etc.) which may? have been the catalyst for his stand manifesting. he's scared of what purple haze can do, and he's scared of what his volatile emotions can do to others and himself. he says purple haze is uncontrollable because he himself doesn't know how to cope with all that has happened to him, he thinks it's out of his control because of how it affects him emotionally. he likely can't remember most of his childhood because of repression as well - fugo probably doesn't know WHY he has these emotional issues and can't remember the source of all his problems. so, to him, it's uncontrollable - reflecting in purple haze (and purple haze distortion, in the PHF novel)
And while lashing out at the teacher was certainly justified, which would set Fugo apart from the others who made bad choices,the anime still makes it pretty clear that Fugo does have legitimate anger issues. Even if he hadn’t been targeted by that teacher, I suspect that eventually something else would have caused him to snap.
Can we PLEASE get a Purple Haze Feedback OVA
Unpopular opinion: I feel like Fugo lashing out at his teacher for sexually abusing him was justified. When I think of anger issues, o think of someone who flings themselves into a rage over someone stepping on their toe or something trivial, not sexual abuse. (Reminds me of young Guts killing Donovan, actually.)
*g*
Austin Forbes oh cool. That’s only two people, though. I haven’t really heard many other opinions on it, so I don’t know how many people agree or disagree.
The sexual abuse was just an anime thing. In pretty much every other adaptation he snapped when his teacher told him “I’m disappointed in you.” It’s also made clear Fugo didn’t lose control. He chose to and was in complete control of his actions when beating his teacher.
Theundeadempire I haven’t read the other adaptations, so I didn’t know this. Thanks
I feel like there's pros and cons to every adaptation of Fugo's backstory. I prefer the anime because it helps me relate most to Fugo - I was put under heavy academic pressure for my intelligence by my parents, but I was sexually abused, too. Fugo was falsely accused of wanting/enjoying what happened between him and his professor, and in some cases people even say he did it as a way to get into the uni. So without any external validation, Fugo's left to see himself as needlessly cruel. Sexual abuse, on the other hand, leaves one feeling very dirty (Purple Haze is obsessed with cleanliness) and feeling like everyone and everywhere is unsafe and dangerous (Purple Haze kills everything around him). Paired with a violent disposition and voila, a recipe for rage.
Of course, not everyone has to like it. This is just my take, paired with my own interpretations.
i respectfully strongly disagree with your assessment of which pseudocanon backstory for fugo seems the most in line with his character. in my opinion, feedback feels much more in tune with fugo as a character. the point isn't that the incident with his teacher is the inciting incident for his rage, the point is that his anger had been building for his entire life and the one thing that brought him happiness was not only ripped away from him, but he wasn't even given a chance to mourn. i believe his choice to finally snap and take control of his life fits more with the other members' backstory than his life being relatively happy and him just being misunderstood. i don't know if this is just because i have a very strong connection to this character, but your analysis kinda feels like you're brushing off debatably the most important part of these characters. their lives (for the most part) are not good before the inciting incident which leads them to the gang, they're mediocre at best, and some injustice thrust upon them shows them how bad the world can be and leads them to bruno. abacchio doesn't realise the danger of accepting the bribe and his partner dies, mista risks his life to save a woman in danger and is wrongfully imprisoned, narancia is tricked by someone he trusts and is made to take the blame for a crime, and bruno's parents split up, he chooses the more difficult life to help his father, and eventually starts working for passione to continue to protect him. you can argue that all of these characters' arcs are started by choices they made, but all of them (with the somewhat exception of abacchio) weren't really choices. they were either decieved, tried to protect their family, or tried to do the right thing.
You got a point
k
I feel like Fugo is actually really well developed even though we see him for only a little bit. We know that Purple Haze is a reflection of his anger and we also know that Fugo only summons it in very dire circumstances, both because of the uncontrollable nature of its very ability, but also due to his hatred towards it. We know from that that Fugo views his anger as both something he can not control and something he hates about himself, which, from fearing his own anger, he fears his other emotions as well. When he was given the choice of going with the gang or not he emotionally wanted to go, but out of his own fear of his emotions he made the logical choice of his own self preservation and decided to not betray the boss.
That's my own interpretation of his character at least and the reason why he is my favorite character in JoJo, he is just incredibly written for what he is in the story.
the multiple facets of the Gem that is Pannacotta "Panni" Fugo.
When the best interpretation of your character is an obscure doujin. Memes aside like you said it's a great read but my favourite backstory is still PHF because g r a n d m a.
Purple Haze: Dad, am I unwanted?
Fugo: Yes
Purple Haze: UbashWAAAAH
Quarantine yourself, Purple Haze is in the air...
I love fugo because he’s a blank slate meaning his story could be as diverse as can be so please more videos about him
Just read part 6 and I got to say it's one of my favorites it's the most BIZARRE in jojo
Honestly part 6 gud
Meti just wants to talk about his husbando and I approve of this
Last time I was this early, Fugo's color palette was still beige.
the anime adaptation of his backstory is my favorite for... personal reasons but i think it's super interesting seeing what other people decided to fill in the gaps with :O
This is what, Metis fifth video about Fugo?
Cant wait for twelve more when they finally animate Purple Haze Feedback
Meti's intros always remind me of Adult Swim commercials
I have to say I do like Fugo's analysis of of Jekyll and Hyde within the Doujin, along with the argument he has with the other student. The girl's analysis of the work isn't really inherently wrong as much as it is a surface-level reading that assumes Jekyll is able to be objective in his letters when describing his other persona. Essentially she takes the words in the story as gospel and examines the work that way. Fugo's analysis is more about digging into the character itself and trying to understand his nature (which is the kind of thought process that would likely prove useful against Stands). By that viewpoint Hyde very much is the desire that Jekyll wants to experience and makes his story one about repression and outbursts. The issue is that type of examination requires a certain type of mentality to consider as it is basically questions the reliability of Jekyll as a narrator. So he's probably closer to being right but there is a stubborness and even a slight bias in his analysis.
So glad to hear you bring up Jekyll and hyde, i thought i was the only one who read it
After watching the video I rushed to google and read it.
Fugo's Stand, Purple Haze, is a reflection of the rage created by his gifted kid trauma. He never asked to be born smart and wealthy, but what most would consider gifts were curses when born to a family obsessed with image. I feel like each incarnation makes Fugo more and more sympathetic, as people with anger issues need to be understood.
Everyone: *goes*
Fugo: *stays*
Comedian
@@bug9591 I try.
YES!
finally more of the Lord himself!
i think the anime backstory is the best; it makes fugo just in the same way mista was just in shooting the men that were assaulting the woman and then tried to kill him. I don't think it misses the point at all, it still follows the themes of the part.
plus i really like that they acknowledge that victims of sexual abuse often develop anger issues (fugo had them before but they were amplified after the abuse) because that's often ignored in media. experiencing abuse as a child fucks with your development but it's usually just portrayed as sadness when a lot of the time it manifests in uglier, less socially acceptable ways, like lashing out, a lack of self-control, feeling empty, abandonment issues etc
his stand reflects that lack of control one experiences when and after being abused. it even tries to clean itself which is pretty concerning in the context of his backstory :(
The way I see it, having Purple Haze as a Stand is like having a Rottweiler for a Guard Dog.
That's just me lol
I love a lot of the points he makes during this, but every time he said something like This doesn't fit with the angry outbursts we see Fugo have throughout the manga, as he stabs Narancia for just getting a math problem wrong, I kinda cringe cuz think about it. This is Fugo's first real form of backlash, he still wants to impress his parents and keep his position as a LITERAL 13 YEAR OLD IN COLLEGE. He wouldn't even be there if he already had outbursts like that over something as trivial as a failed math problem! We see him trying to contain his anger already during the almost-stabs-his-dad scene, so it only makes sense that his first lashing-out would require pressure more infuriating than a slow student. That said, this comment is on a 3 month old video so i'll be lucky if someone so much as scrolls past and doesn't read it cuz it's so damn long.
Fugo’s my favorite jojo character so I appreciate you making a new video on him!
It's your vids that made Fugo my favorite character. Thanks, Meti.
His internal conflict is what makes him an interesting character, it’s unfortunate that araki kind of just booted him
I think it would have been really cool if he turned on the Bucci gang but I understand Araki not wanting to do that to him
yeah part 5 is filled with enough tragedy, especially after part 4 which was so much more light when it came to death
I think fugos best backstory was probably the one where he snapped over the professor calling his desire to go to his grandmothers funeral childish, in purple haze feedback
Us: David Production please give us Purple Haze Feedback OVA
DP: Y'all want ROHAN GOES TO GUCCI?

Caden Eaker why are you explaining that?
@Caden Eaker: Please use correct japanese
Me: *DAGA KOTOWARU*
Caden Eaker well yeah, there’s no point in explaining why using daga kotowaru in that sentence is wrong. It’s a reference to when Rohan said it. You even acknowledged that, yet you chose to explain why it’s wrong anyways
The psa was straight up a good adult swim break
Fugo and his analogy of Jekyll and Hyde fits him both character and thematically wise I'm down for that doujin video
The writers trying to figure out Fugo's backstory feels like a group of detectives trying to solve a murder case and using their few pieces of evidence (for example fugo beating his professor) and filling in the rest with inferences and conclutions.
Fugo is a literal meme. Nearly every scene he appears in is meme material
Hey meti, you should try to combine all of these Fugo stories into one big one that could be made into an ova!!!
Yeah, that would be a good idea ^^
Ah yes, another video about our favorite angry pandemic cheese boi. Love it
My point of view when it comes to different canonish explanations (As my understanding is that none of there were written by Araki, he just approved them) is to mash them together into a version that is the most sensible to you.
For me Fugo having a larger role in the organization and being somewhat of a spy is important, especially as that is closest to what Araki initially intended. The GHGW emphasis of him pushing people away also makes sense. And then it makes most sense for him to have gone to prison like in PHF as that keeps in line with “the society negatively affecting him” motif you mentioned.
tbh i wanted to see Fugo more
im kinda upset now knowing that there were plans for him made
The doujin was really good. Thanks!
Also I'm all in for more Fugo content
When I heard that Fugo in GHGR was basically some angry rich kid, it threw me off from reading it. But considering Araki’s plans for the character, I think I have a theory. Basically Fugo is meant to represent someone who was in the top of society causing his own downfall, kinda like Abbacchio(which is why they seem to be paired in MiTM) compared to being in a underprivileged position like Narancia. Every character in P5 develops into someone who can face their worst traits head on and have the resolve to chage their fate. But not Fugo. His inability to grow as a person and stick to the traditional is what would be his undoing. It why Gio was to kill him, as Gio would represent the new, the change for the better, the Golden Wind.
Sorry if this is rambling but I really like Fugo and all the ways he can be interpreted. I love the anime (especially the symbolism of PH and how it ties to his sexual assault, like the stiching in his mouth and how SA victims are often silenced ). As well as PHF Fugo with him and Bucci meeting in jail. I love this cheese boi so much
DP please animate PHF please!!
I really needed that PSA it was so random but I really needed a reminder why I kept going so far
I like those abstract intros you make
I would like to see a video on Jekyll and Hyde 5 Meters pls and thanks
I just want to add the fact, Araki confirmed that he wears a thong....
I feel spiritually and personally connected with Fugo
Clincal depression on a whole nother level
Fugo is my Boi no matter what shape or color he's in. Now I got to look up that fan-fic
Using Nocturne music for BGM is pretty based. Good taste, Meti.
plot twist: fugo have this holes at his clothes because he has the quiet vocal cord parasite so he needs it to breath
I know a lot of people don't like Fugo(especially because he left the group) but he was honestly one of my favorite characters. It made sense why he left, and i can't blame him for making that choice, he has one of the most broken stands, and i liked his relationship with Narancia, i think they had a funny dynamic. Fugo is easily in my top 5 favorite characters of part 5
Fugo in the doujin:
- Has the urge to explain things and be very detailed about it, gets angry and frustrated
- Anger management issues
- From what I see there's panels of him chewing on pencils
Heck. Is younger Fugo just literally my younger self? Angy, explain galore, what a delightful pencil, Chew
If Fugo had a backstory, he’d prefer it to be multiple choice.
I've NEVER heard of Jekyll and Hyde: 5 Meters. I'd love to learn more!
The more I listen to this video, the more I realize I'm more like Fugo than I thought.
I want to see that Jekyll and Hyde video.
He's one of my favorite jojo characters for sure but if his story was developed by araki he'd be my favorite one for sure.
I'd be super interested in a video on Jekyll and Hyde 5m.
Fugo is in your top 5 characters for sure
Cioccolata is the suspiciously similar replacement for Fugo. How would Fugo matched up with him? They're both the smartest person of their organization, they both have super destructive power. However, Cioccolata's Green Day is indiscrimating and can be used in very creatively. Fugo's Purple Haze is even more discriminating in that Fugo isn't immune to its effect.
*I honestly see that the golden wind anime's showing of fugo's backstory as true... the professor was basically molesting young fugo and shows hatred because his simple request to an adult was denied causing fugo to beat the shit outta him. (This is heavily shortened but meti covers this one better)*
Yes please make more vento aureo vids, its my favorite part
your intros are amazing
I love the adult swim vibe at the beginning of the PSA
Heck yeah another fugo video
Just finished Golden Wind so this is perfect 👍
If fugo was there king crimson wouldn't stand a chance.
Meti this is like your 4th video on Fugo my god.
5th technically
im terrified at how quarantine life is actually making me show up to videos early
His stand means fugo is toxic
This is why we need his ova
you love fugo a lot
I really liked the adaptation of Fugo’s backstory in the anime. Something about it just made my sympathize with him and care for the character so much more. I believe that the anime’s adaptation was the canon one, but I think that’s just me speaking from personal opinion.
I personally like the anime explanation I really would’ve liked it if she would’ve helped Bruno and gang when they decide to go against the boss but he didn’t
Well of course it's Fugo again... Meti, yo uhave a problem...
