Jojo diamond records revival is goated, they are gonna add more obscure characters for anyone curios the part 1 list is: (returning char.) Jonathan, Will, Speedwagon, Dire, Straizo, Erina, Wang chan, Bruford, Tarkus and Dio. (new char.) Jack the ripper, Tonpetty, Deep pass overdrive jonathan, Adams, Doobie, Page, Jones, Plant and Bornnam. part 1 getting love is something really great.
Some fan things you didn't include were: Holy Steel and GO BEYOND! (both done by Nico Bellisario, shihori and vettis with 4 different versions), Vettis, Erixander, the steel ball run and (discontinued) JoJolion fandub along with many other fandubs of either meme or serious fan comics and even a fandub for the JOJOLands, the crazy my beat steel ball run MAD by Fugaman/ふーがまん, the many fan made themes (especially those done by Friedrich Habetler Music and Samuel Kim Music), the fan made weather report Virtual Insanity video from 2013, the good fan made mugen games and maybe other jojo youtubers. not sure if that last thing counts but social media is almost necessary for popularity. I'd also say ZombRexGame made a really good sfx version of traitors requiem v3, better than the official sfx version.
Downvoted and unsubscribed; Clayman's 7th sneed User was a boring grindy mess I couldn't get past the Polnareff boss despite grinding all the way up to level 20 7th stand user 2 is also never happening either, the first one stunk and the alleged sequel will never ever happen.
@@Hamon_Beat 7su2 will never happen and the clayman game sucked, deal with it you will never have another 7th stand user so sorry you'll never have another unbeatable game of shoddy fanfiction grow up.
i'm suprised he made such a silly mistake like that, not just cuz he's the big jojo superfan man but also because voice actors aren't easy to mix up much less ones that don't sound like each other or have similar names
My favorite part about the Clamp sitcom doujin (as vaguely explained by my sister) is Dio's evil plans being very mundane things. I don't want to read it myself because I fear it wont live up to my nebulous imagination where it's like a Seinfield episode but time stops in the middle of whatever the gang is doing in their flat and Dio just walks in casualy, grabs a box of cereal or pancakes from a plate, leaves and then time resumes as if nothing happened.
I can totally see that playing out in a Seinfeld like way with jerry being jotaro and being the only one who could briefly see dio(Kramer or something idk I mainly watched it with my dad) but wasn’t quite paying enough attention to catch him or get proof. So from everyone else’s perspective, jotaro just reaches to grab some cereal and pauses as the laugh track bellows at jotaro befuddlement. He claims dio stole his cereal and obviously it’s a reverse baby stand situation crossed with Seinfeld and everyone just treats jotaro like he’s crazy So the episode just escalated with jotaro trying to catch prevent and trap dio because he knows he’s obviously stealing shit but can’t fucking prove it and the inflation cost for cereal is rising too damn high to be playing these games-
I love the idea of Dio just kinda abandoning the whole "take over the world" thing and instead just becoming the Joestar's pain in the ass. Kind of like Reverse Flash for Barry Allen but if Solidjj's video was canon instead of what actually was.
@@mxcokoko Dio basically is the Joestars Reverse Flash, down to the whole "will haunt them for generations thing". Hell, there's even a reverse flash who's power is to slow down time to a stand still, making it look like he has super-speed.
For me, the peak of JoJo's fan projects is Cody Savoie's "The Lighted Stage". Its a fully voice-acted novel he uploads to his UA-cam channel, CoalSavioe, with a completely original plot, setting, characters, Stands, and artwork. He voices it with his wife, Morgan Lea, and the couple's range makes each character sound so perfectly unique. If you end up doing another video on this topic I would suggest giving it a watch. Also more fan original content, seeing people turn their favorite song or album into a Stand is so fun for me.
I really like seeing the world of jojo by other authors, now it's interesting to think that jojo has little extra official and canonical content besides the manga
Right??? It’s such a spinoff gold mine it’s insane by probably pretty fitting or the best it’s mainly the fans that run that show; it gives the weight of the things that happen in the actual series more gravity. I didn’t know t at the time, but when I made my first little Jojo animatic on my channel, I genuinely had no idea what brainworm the series would give me. I wasn’t a fan of SO and I don’t even wholy like Jojo, the reason I’m just growing more and more obsessed with it has to do with there are just certain aspects present in each part that never cease to hook me. It’s cool seeing that bug 100% be present in other fans too!
7th Stand User is honestly my favorite fan project of all time, bar none. Probably one of my favorite RPGs too. It's extremely inspiring seeing how much love was poured into it, and for how long. It's a great game!
I’m really happy to see a shoutout to Seventh Stand User because it’s an incredible project, has a huge amount of content that’s led to me beating it close to 30 times now and gave me a new appreciation for part 3 when it was previously one of my least favourite parts. Clayman’s a legend and the folks who are still working on the English translation are great people.
Hi! You should check fan manga called "Moscow calling", the story is set in the same universe as jojo, but with original characters. The artstyle of this project never stops improving, and there are 14 chapters already
I remember well before The jojolands came out there was a part 9 subreddit with its own storyline called silver soul. They created about 11 chapters and had characters named Thoko, Fidello Costello, and Jolene Joestar. Never read it myself but I liked all the nonsense memes
I’d like to recommend another fan spin-off called Moscow’s Calling It’s about a college student whose dream is to become a successful cartoonist but has troubles with his stepfather who punishes him for using his stand often in public. It actually has some more world building that’s a bit reminiscent to the early parts of jojo and The origin of stand arrows in the sense of special artifacts pasts. It also has some pretty damn clever stands with unique abilities that are very smart. One stand belongs to a priest in the series that, I won’t spoil, is has a very unique stand ability that’s really interesting. Overall, I also highly recommend this one. I would also like to say if willing let’s help the release of some of these projects like BSV since they’re in need of funds for the help of their releases and resources. Another thing with Disoc Ballad is that there was also a cgi op version of SBR that cleverly uses the second part of the first full op. I can’t find it on their channel sinse I think it got taken down but someone did upload it up
I just wanted to say I’m shocked how scarily close I got to saying the description of it word for word I was completely unaware that was the actual description but I guess that just shows my precognition is just that obscure and, well, bizarre.
Interesting to find out that not a lot of people are aware of Duwang anymore. When I first started to get into Jojo's that was THE joke people would always refer to. That was about 7 years ago though. Great video as always.
I do know about a jojo fan manga “Moscow calling” a project several years in production with one or two volumes already physically published, they also appear to have an English version online
I was hoping to see Vettis’ work in here! Super big fan of their fan intros for parts 7 and 8. They really capture the animation style and make lots of great references to previous intros. Holy Steel is such a great theme song for part 7!!!
It's an amazing group effort, Nico's lyrics and composition, shihori's vocals and the rest of the crew nailed it, twice! It totally catches that JoJo essence we love, and they feel like actual openings
As someone who is attempting to make their own JoJo inspired story, it's amazing to see other writers succeed in making their own. Thank you for making me aware about them
While not super influential, I would like to also mention the almost shot for shot recreation of the Virtual Insanity music video with Weather Report as Jamiroquai. It is VERY well done!
As an old jojo fan (since the first season of the anime aired) i want to thank you for doing this video, it brought back a lot of memories about how the fandom was like before it exploded with the anime, i remember how limited jojo content was that if we wanted to experience more jojo we would have to dig really deep in the online trenches and come out with stuff like the clamp jojo doujin and sometimes you would also find amazing stuff like the jojo AMDs (which i have watched so many times i've practically memorized them) and it really went to show the love and passion that fans all over the world had for the series even before it became as popular as it is today. Id love to see you cover more jojo fandom stuff like this :)
When talking about Jojo fan manga you should really check out Moscow calling, it's a fan jojo manga which takes place in Soviet Russia, it has 17 chapters atm but you can really see how the art improves in just that time
another good fan project in my opinion is Russian fan part “Moscow Calling” it is based in Russia, the protagonist is Greogry short for “Jora”. There are only 18 chapters and it is ongoing, but there are a lot of stands with the references to Russian musicians such as “Kino”, “Tequillajazz”, “Stigmata” and etc. Would be pretty cool to hear you exploring this fan project, there is a free English translation on the internet.
7th stand user is a freaking masterpiece. For those who want to play it, there is a lot more than just part 3: there is characters from part 1 and 2, evil endings where you can join (and betray after) Dio, and even play an unique storyline as Josuke instead of the SI. My favorite part about it is probably the fact that the stand you got opens new opportunities like extra events which sometimes let you go on alternate routes with new enemies and bosses, or just nice boosts. My fav jjba fangame ever for sure.
I hope that someone mentioned this but Lighted Stage is most consistent and fully voiced original fan JoJo part ...its a novel and words can't describe how good it is
As someone who has been following Jojo since 2009, the MADs and videos from Nico Nico are probably my fondest memories from the Jojo fanbase. I wasn't aware the part 7 vid by roha_nes is currently being made, so hyped about it.
Some fan stuff I really enjoyed were the "native languages" videos, where they edit scenes of the characters but they all speak their native tongue. IE Joseph speaking English to Jotaro speaking Japanese. Another similar one I like was someone taking the original OVA final battle of Jotaro vs Dio and dubbing it over with the newer voices and music, almost creating a new experience
I'm a little surprised you missed on OverArms, which is a TTRPG that plainly takes JoJo and Persona as inspiration. Though, as an avid fan of both JJBA and TTRPGs, I will openly say that it has some serious power balance issues (basically, 2 of the Stand "types" wind up breaking the game.) So it is in need of some serious houseruling/rewrites to be both fun and balanced.
There is a JoJo fan project by CoalSavoie called "JoJo The Lighten Stage" that I feel has some interesting story and characters beats and great art for characters and stands The person behind this has a lot of passion for this visible to see since it's ongoing for a couple of years
Man, some these really took me back, especially Til We Eternally Rest and the MADs. It's not by rohan_nes, but that Part 5 MAD that uses the Sakura Wars theme might be my favorite JoJo MAD, tied with rohan_nes's Part 6 MAD. I've honestly become a bit disillusioned with the JoJo fanbase in recent years, but I will always love just how creative its members can be and how many fun projects come from it. Also, thank you for talking about that Diavolo fan game. I never heard of it (or at least I don't remember) and it looks like the perfect game for me.
My friends and I are currently doing a JoJo D&D campaign which I like to consider almost canon. (Cuz we steer clear of main characters). We started with a Steel Ball Run Campaign where our group encounters the other racers we don’t really see much of, such as Mack The Knife, Kanye, and others. We are now in Jojolion campaign where we work for the Rock Humans under Damo. Some of our dumb OC Stands: Vicinity of Obscenity - A poop stand that can be thrown like a ball. Mambo Number 5 - this Stand can change any dice roll into a “5”. Personal Jesus - A horse godlike entity that doesn’t attack directly. Instead smites any who commit a sin or break one of the Ten Commandments. Sex Bob-Omb- flip any dice 180 degrees Upsidown. Making the result that outcome. And many others.
There's a lower profile JoJo fan project called JoJo: The Lighted Stage which has a lot of content story wise but not as much in the way of visual art. It has a more light novel-esque style with a narrator and the characters voiced by the creator CoalSavoie and his wife with occasional art pieces such as characters and their stands or specific fight scenes drawn by Coal as well. It exists in its own alternative continuity similar to the relationship between the original universe and the SBR universe. Each chapter aside from the first is around 30-40 minutes long and have a similar style to a radio drama, they are released every few months with the most recent chapter being 24. It's a very well written and produced project that doesn't get the attention it really deserves just because it's mostly audio and text.
Even though it wasn't 100% made from scratch, I would like to give a shoutout to a not so well known project that has a lot of heart and effort: The JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven anime by ST Pro Studio It's essentially the game's story mode with skins, SFX and OST from the first six parts of the anime (With Parts 7 and 8 using songs from Parts 1, 2 and 4). At the end of each month, a new chapter is released (Chapter 7 will likely release in a few days) Also, I would like to thank the modding community for All Star Battle R (Specially to some like ArtOnTheSide, Jinx or Dani; who are making mods with an anime aesthetic) for keeping alive the interest on the game with their creativity
*Video Idea:* explaining how “flow” works in the new universe of parts 7-9 in the same vain as your videos on fate for the old universe. With the lava rock and mechanisms being so important so early on to Jojolands, it would be interesting explaining what is currently known about the concept of flow as well as how our understanding changes over the course of part 9. Thoughts?
If you ever do a follow up I remember seeing a fan project called Moscow Calling. It’s set in Russia and uses concepts from Jojo. I don’t know how much of it is translated to English though.
A quick word of warning for anyone interested in jjba abridged, episodes 5 and 8 were taken down by the UA-cam copyright system and as far as I’m aware, antfish has either not attempted to dispute the claims or tried to dispute but failed. There are no reuploads of these missing episodes to my knowledge, which is a shame because there are some pretty good jokes in them.
I really like the fan made openings for part 7 and part 8 by Nico Bellisario, and some of the leitmotif videos like Bites the Dust by Sober Soldier or Made in Heaven by TheAluminumDragon.
If you were ever to do another one of these, the two fan manga parts made by AlgebraFalcon, Jojopolis and Bone ti Blades, are really good! The art starts out VERY rough but the writing is strong and the Stands are super well fleshed-out. There's also been massive improvement in the art since it started
An interesting thing about the Roha nes MADs is that some fans have made anime versions that 1-to-1 replace screenshots of panels with corresponding anime scenes
man i'd love a yakuza esque jojo game i think itd be fun if you could customize your stand too, maybe even part of your stand's abilities is the ability to remember and copy other stand user abilities to let you use iconic ones from the series
I actually worked a bit on The 7th Stand User 2 before I stopped keeping up with the project. I helped transcribe the manga into a script format. One of the choices for the female protagonist being a gyaru might have been my suggestion, but it's been so long since then that I don't remember, lol.
Wait if that's the case then is there a reason why for over a year there has been radio silence on the dev team's social media? Sorry if I'm coming across as a bit pushy and if you don't have a concurrent answer due to you having left the dev team some time prior then that's ok. I just hope the development on that game didn't die off because I really enjoyed the first 7th stand user and after trying the demo I really want this game to come to fruition!
@@josuerosales6485 Unfortunately, I was only in contact with them through a sort of community notepad with a chatroom. I forgot about it for a few months before checking back in and finding it was a ghost town, presumably having made the transition to Patreon or Discord. They are still around, since they posted an update last month confirming they're still working on it and could use some more devs. I too hope they can make the game happen.
I think my favourite fan made jojo content are all fan made parts I've seen. People making their own jojo with their backstories, stands, and colourful cast. It gets my creative juices flowing and makes me want to do my own one day
If we're talking about JoJo-inspired projects, I can't recommend enough the TTRPG "Eidolon: Become Your Best Self" and the accompanying podcast Eidolon Playtest. The game is very JoJo with a bit of Persona splashed in, where you create a character with an Eidolon (essentially a Stand) and get the freedom to come up with the craziest anime powers you can think of. The way battles play out also perfectly captures the kinetic yet tactical way in which Araki's battles play out on the page. A great time with friends, whether they're JoJo fans or not
If you make a sequel video on this topic you should definitely include "One Cartoonist's Dream" It's a compilation of Disney song parodies sung by the heroes and villains of JoJo.
One fan project I discovered back in 2020 is "Sunset Justice". It is supposed to be a light novel and also a fan game, the story is about what happened to Stroheim after Part 2 with new original characters. The light novel was actually completed and released but the website it was published on has been since taken down so it seems that the story is now unavaible, at the time I had forgotten about the project so I never had the chance to read it. About the game I think it never released and since there haven't been news about this project I think it never will.
Seeing all the fan made content by a lot of loyal fans has inspired me to make some of my own, hopefully in the future I’ll be able to release it and make a contribution to newer jojo fans who stumble upon the series like me and everyone else did
Same here, it all started for me with one little Jojo animatic on my channel. But as I learned more about the series I think my obsession has grown due to it being such a spinoff goldmind. I personally believe the world and lore is interesting enough that you don’t even NEED a joestar to be interesting, I feel Araki partially just uses that joestar blood as just a narrative hook to tie things together while also allowing himself to take the reeder wherever he wants. Love seeing fans push that concept even further and involve past joestars while both being its own thing but still distinctly Jojo I wanna be a voice actor among other things too, the fact that Jojo has been such a fun artistic outlet for us and so many others like us is crazy. To think any one of us could be apart of some official Jojo works someday is crazy to think about Literally one of the people I follow on twitter and is barely an adult got to do some official work in episodes for Stone Ocean AND chainsaw man! That shits fucking insane, I really could be texting to gappys Dub actor right now and not even know. No matter what, it’s great to hear how this series rubbed off on you and hope to see you and your work on the other side someday too once it’s out!
In the next video you should tell the audience about JOJO Disney Musical - One Cartoonist's Dream from Leon's channel. It has the most impressive concept for a JOJO related project and also music is incredible. I personally rewatching it every couple of mounth.
im so glad to see someone talking about roha_nes, his stuff used to be popular back before jojo got big with the anime. The part 3 Juves MAD is a heritage post and I remember people sharing it constantly back in the day
When I first finished part 7 I watched a fan animated ode to part 7 by the name of "【SBR】There‘s nothing else to say but THANk YOU GYRO" it animates some of the manga panels and use some of the voice lines from the jojo fighting games to make something truly beautiful. Hopefully you bring more light to it when you make the next video on this topic.
One of my favorite Jojo fan projects is the TTRPG "Jojo Carbon Interface". They have a whole series of the game going through an interesting story and the game is still being worked on. The game itself is a lot of fun too and really fits Jojo. When rewatching fights I can almost think of the game mechanics that the characters would be doing, like Joskue using the "secret action" mechanic to swallow the glove.
I have to say Go Beyond JoJolion I think is worth mentioning in relation to this topic. The author has been working on it for years and has breached hundreds of thousands of words (100+ chapters and at Milagro Man arc) in an attempt to 'cope with' the ending of JoJolion and rewrite the part with alot of time spent and dedication
If you are going to make another part of the best jojo fan projects, you can check out Jojo Moscow calling ! Its a russian fan manga which was obviously inspired from Jojo, and takes place in Russia. You should definitely check it out, because it started in 2019, has 17 chapters and still ongoing! There's even an english translation (though the latest chapters dont have translation, but still something)
The Antfish abridged series was actually my life. Good thing he became recognized more as a voice actor, even if it was at the expense of the series lmao
If you do eventually make a follow-up to this video I really hope you cover Lighted Stage. It seems to be ramping up to a conclusion and I’d love if more people were there to witness it
As many people have already said Mick voices Abbacchio instead of Mista in the Dub Speaking of the dub I think it'd be a fun idea to make a differences video between the dub and the sub, though obviously the differences wouldn't be nearly as major as the manga ones you could point out fun things like the heavy accents of parts 1,2 and 5
I absolutely LOVE the Jojo MADs! There was a great edit of the Part 4 one made using scenes from the anime, but unfortunately it's been lost to copyright and i haven't found a reupload ever since
I think there is a fan manga inspired by JoJo and set in Russia. Moscow calling, I think it's called. I am not a big fan personally, but if you want more material for the next video, this one is to be checked out!
You’ve given me the motivation to start writing my JoJo project. I’ve got like twenty stands designed and all the plot and stuff, I just need to put pen to paper. Thank you homie, love your videos
My personal favorite is Antfish and enjoyed his unique performance of DIO which was base of Tim Curry. While not in the video, another fan Jojo parody project I recommend is Filthyramenking which he is known for recreating Jojo opening and episodes with copyright free stock photos.
I think you should talk about the three jojo death battle episodes. If you don't know death battle is a online vs show where they take 2 characters from different series, analyze them, and then try to determine who would win. There are currently three jojo episodes: Jotaro vs Kenshiro from fist of the Northstar which is a ok episode Dio vs Alucard from Hellsing which is a god tier episode And Jonathan vs Tanjiro from demon slayer which is a pretty good episode with a good ending Also there's another vs show called one minute melee thats unresearched and does minute long fights that has a few jojo episodes as well, including Dio vs Sakuya from touhou which might be my absolute favorite vs episode of all time
Great video; I’m a huge fan of Arklight’s art so I’m so shocked I didn’t know about their fan comic. Also I think the only thing of note you missed was even a solid reference to fan-made openings, most importantly Holy Steel and Go Beyond because they are so incredible and really drum up the hype since there’s no anime there yet. I also love fan-made stand eye catches with the music references and everything.
The 'Ryu ga Gotoku' studio (Yakuza games) developed a Yakuza style Hokuto no Ken game titled 'Fist of the North Star : Lost Paradise', so a Yakuza style Jojo game may very well happen some day.
There's a Jojo fan-manga called moscow calling, set in Russia, year 2000. I know that nowadays anything russian feels kinda akward, but this manga doesn't support war or putin, so I would recommend it
Blood Sun Vendetta was so cool to see. I know Mick and everyone involved had to work incredibly hard. I haven't heard anything in a while so I had hoped it was still in production
AllinAll's Steel Ball Run animated opera video is pretty good. Also the animator SmokedHam's channel has a Baccano opening parody using Golden Wind that's fun and well animated. 7th Stand User might be my favorite JoJo game of all time.
Mysta is voiced by Sean Chiplock, the same va who voiced Sorbet from la squadra (& possibly Gelato) along with Toyohiro. Mick Laurer is the correct va for abachio

My favorite part about the Clamp sitcom doujin (as vaguely explained by my sister) is Dio's evil plans being very mundane things.

So from everyone else’s perspective, jotaro just reaches to grab some cereal and pauses as the laugh track bellows at jotaro befuddlement.
He claims dio stole his cereal and obviously it’s a reverse baby stand situation crossed with Seinfeld and everyone just treats jotaro like he’s crazy
So the episode just escalated with jotaro trying to catch prevent and trap dio because he knows he’s obviously stealing shit but can’t fucking prove it and the inflation cost for cereal is rising too damn high to be playing these games-
I love the idea of Dio just kinda abandoning the whole "take over the world" thing and instead just becoming the Joestar's pain in the ass. Kind of like Reverse Flash for Barry Allen but if Solidjj's video was canon instead of what actually was.
@@mxcokoko Dio basically is the Joestars Reverse Flash, down to the whole "will haunt them for generations thing". Hell, there's even a reverse flash who's power is to slow down time to a stand still, making it look like he has super-speed.
For me, the peak of JoJo's fan projects is Cody Savoie's "The Lighted Stage". Its a fully voice-acted novel he uploads to his UA-cam channel, CoalSavioe, with a completely original plot, setting, characters, Stands, and artwork. He voices it with his wife, Morgan Lea, and the couple's range makes each character sound so perfectly unique.
If you end up doing another video on this topic I would suggest giving it a watch. Also more fan original content, seeing people turn their favorite song or album into a Stand is so fun for me.
Agreed! Lighted Stage is bar none one of the most fleshed out and fantastic series made for Jojo fans by jojo fans
It’s such a good project I’m legit interested in other fan anime projects done like radio plays
I really like seeing the world of jojo by other authors, now it's interesting to think that jojo has little extra official and canonical content besides the manga
Right??? It’s such a spinoff gold mine it’s insane by probably pretty fitting or the best it’s mainly the fans that run that show; it gives the weight of the things that happen in the actual series more gravity.
I didn’t know t at the time, but when I made my first little Jojo animatic on my channel, I genuinely had no idea what brainworm the series would give me.
I wasn’t a fan of SO and I don’t even wholy like Jojo, the reason I’m just growing more and more obsessed with it has to do with there are just certain aspects present in each part that never cease to hook me.
It’s cool seeing that bug 100% be present in other fans too!
Its not canon if it isn't written by Araki
@@Molten2004And that’s the best part. One can use the outside content and the series to create a better view of the outside world.
@OkPe-ww5rs If Araki chooses to explore those other worlds, then so be it. The only things that are canon come from what is written by him.
@OkPe-ww5rs none of them are canon
7th Stand User is honestly my favorite fan project of all time, bar none. Probably one of my favorite RPGs too. It's extremely inspiring seeing how much love was poured into it, and for how long. It's a great game!
I’m really happy to see a shoutout to Seventh Stand User because it’s an incredible project, has a huge amount of content that’s led to me beating it close to 30 times now and gave me a new appreciation for part 3 when it was previously one of my least favourite parts. Clayman’s a legend and the folks who are still working on the English translation are great people.
Hi! You should check fan manga called "Moscow calling", the story is set in the same universe as jojo, but with original characters. The artstyle of this project never stops improving, and there are 14 chapters already
It's 17 already, just not translated=)
I remember well before The jojolands came out there was a part 9 subreddit with its own storyline called silver soul. They created about 11 chapters and had characters named Thoko, Fidello Costello, and Jolene Joestar. Never read it myself but I liked all the nonsense memes
Hey I'm actually pretty active in the discord server for that we've become like a small little friend group
got a link? have a friend who says they're interested @@Cinnamon_Rolls_Out_Of_The_Oven
I’d like to recommend another fan spin-off called Moscow’s Calling
It’s about a college student whose dream is to become a successful cartoonist but has troubles with his stepfather who punishes him for using his stand often in public. It actually has some more world building that’s a bit reminiscent to the early parts of jojo and The origin of stand arrows in the sense of special artifacts pasts. It also has some pretty damn clever stands with unique abilities that are very smart. One stand belongs to a priest in the series that, I won’t spoil, is has a very unique stand ability that’s really interesting. Overall, I also highly recommend this one.
I would also like to say if willing let’s help the release of some of these projects like BSV since they’re in need of funds for the help of their releases and resources.
Another thing with Disoc Ballad is that there was also a cgi op version of SBR that cleverly uses the second part of the first full op. I can’t find it on their channel sinse I think it got taken down but someone did upload it up
I just wanted to say I’m shocked how scarily close I got to saying the description of it word for word
I was completely unaware that was the actual description but I guess that just shows my precognition is just that obscure and, well, bizarre.
Interesting to find out that not a lot of people are aware of Duwang anymore. When I first started to get into Jojo's that was THE joke people would always refer to. That was about 7 years ago though. Great video as always.
I do know about a jojo fan manga “Moscow calling” a project several years in production with one or two volumes already physically published, they also appear to have an English version online
Side note - Leone Abbacchio is voiced by Mick Laur, not Mista. Otherwise, very good video!
Mick Lauer and his iconic power moves
Thank you for the inclusion hihi, hopefully I’ll be able to continue Rauch soon ☺️
Antfish is the bomb. I love jojo abridged. That's how I got interested in the series.
I was hoping to see Vettis’ work in here! Super big fan of their fan intros for parts 7 and 8. They really capture the animation style and make lots of great references to previous intros. Holy Steel is such a great theme song for part 7!!!
Absolutely LOVE their work!
Honestly those intros are on par if not better than some of the official ones, at least in the music and visual direction.
It's an amazing group effort, Nico's lyrics and composition, shihori's vocals and the rest of the crew nailed it, twice! It totally catches that JoJo essence we love, and they feel like actual openings
As someone who is attempting to make their own JoJo inspired story, it's amazing to see other writers succeed in making their own. Thank you for making me aware about them
While not super influential, I would like to also mention the almost shot for shot recreation of the Virtual Insanity music video with Weather Report as Jamiroquai. It is VERY well done!
Thank you for mentioning the 7th stand user as im a huge fan of it! I would also love you to make a video or a playthrough on it!
As an old jojo fan (since the first season of the anime aired) i want to thank you for doing this video, it brought back a lot of memories about how the fandom was like before it exploded with the anime, i remember how limited jojo content was that if we wanted to experience more jojo we would have to dig really deep in the online trenches and come out with stuff like the clamp jojo doujin and sometimes you would also find amazing stuff like the jojo AMDs (which i have watched so many times i've practically memorized them) and it really went to show the love and passion that fans all over the world had for the series even before it became as popular as it is today.
Id love to see you cover more jojo fandom stuff like this :)
Blood sun vendetta is incredible
When talking about Jojo fan manga you should really check out Moscow calling, it's a fan jojo manga which takes place in Soviet Russia, it has 17 chapters atm but you can really see how the art improves in just that time
In Soviet? It is set in 2000, while Soviet Union is no more since 1991.
another good fan project in my opinion is Russian fan part “Moscow Calling” it is based in Russia, the protagonist is Greogry short for “Jora”. There are only 18 chapters and it is ongoing, but there are a lot of stands with the references to Russian musicians such as “Kino”, “Tequillajazz”, “Stigmata” and etc. Would be pretty cool to hear you exploring this fan project, there is a free English translation on the internet.

Correction: Mick Lauer, aka RicePirate, voices Abbachio in the English dub instead of Mista
RicePirate, sonicmega. Know the difference.
It *WILL* save your life.
7th stand user is a freaking masterpiece. For those who want to play it, there is a lot more than just part 3: there is characters from part 1 and 2, evil endings where you can join (and betray after) Dio, and even play an unique storyline as Josuke instead of the SI. My favorite part about it is probably the fact that the stand you got opens new opportunities like extra events which sometimes let you go on alternate routes with new enemies and bosses, or just nice boosts. My fav jjba fangame ever for sure.
The Jojo: Lighted Stage Audio UA-cam is such an fascinating one. I love it
I hope that someone mentioned this but Lighted Stage is most consistent and fully voiced original fan JoJo part ...its a novel and words can't describe how good it is
Happy to see Pink Among Blood Red Roses get attention. It’s one of my favorite things I’ve read this year!
Picked it up because of this and I am hooked. I love everything about it so far!
As someone who has been following Jojo since 2009, the MADs and videos from Nico Nico are probably my fondest memories from the Jojo fanbase. I wasn't aware the part 7 vid by roha_nes is currently being made, so hyped about it.
Some fan stuff I really enjoyed were the "native languages" videos, where they edit scenes of the characters but they all speak their native tongue. IE Joseph speaking English to Jotaro speaking Japanese. Another similar one I like was someone taking the original OVA final battle of Jotaro vs Dio and dubbing it over with the newer voices and music, almost creating a new experience
I'm a little surprised you missed on OverArms, which is a TTRPG that plainly takes JoJo and Persona as inspiration. Though, as an avid fan of both JJBA and TTRPGs, I will openly say that it has some serious power balance issues (basically, 2 of the Stand "types" wind up breaking the game.) So it is in need of some serious houseruling/rewrites to be both fun and balanced.
There is a JoJo fan project by CoalSavoie called "JoJo The Lighten Stage" that I feel has some interesting story and characters beats and great art for characters and stands
The person behind this has a lot of passion for this visible to see since it's ongoing for a couple of years
There is also russian manga JoJo: Moscow Calling, it's very good and have unique story of a boy with a stand
Let me go ahead and add my favorite: A channel called Hamon Beat! It is an endless source of the deepest jojo related knowledge and facts
Man, some these really took me back, especially Til We Eternally Rest and the MADs. It's not by rohan_nes, but that Part 5 MAD that uses the Sakura Wars theme might be my favorite JoJo MAD, tied with rohan_nes's Part 6 MAD. I've honestly become a bit disillusioned with the JoJo fanbase in recent years, but I will always love just how creative its members can be and how many fun projects come from it.
Also, thank you for talking about that Diavolo fan game. I never heard of it (or at least I don't remember) and it looks like the perfect game for me.
My friends and I are currently doing a JoJo D&D campaign which I like to consider almost canon. (Cuz we steer clear of main characters).
We started with a Steel Ball Run Campaign where our group encounters the other racers we don’t really see much of, such as Mack The Knife, Kanye, and others.
We are now in Jojolion campaign where we work for the Rock Humans under Damo.
Some of our dumb OC Stands:
Vicinity of Obscenity - A poop stand that can be thrown like a ball.
Mambo Number 5 - this Stand can change any dice roll into a “5”.
Personal Jesus - A horse godlike entity that doesn’t attack directly. Instead smites any who commit a sin or break one of the Ten Commandments.
Sex Bob-Omb- flip any dice 180 degrees Upsidown. Making the result that outcome.
And many others.
There's a lower profile JoJo fan project called JoJo: The Lighted Stage which has a lot of content story wise but not as much in the way of visual art. It has a more light novel-esque style with a narrator and the characters voiced by the creator CoalSavoie and his wife with occasional art pieces such as characters and their stands or specific fight scenes drawn by Coal as well. It exists in its own alternative continuity similar to the relationship between the original universe and the SBR universe.
Each chapter aside from the first is around 30-40 minutes long and have a similar style to a radio drama, they are released every few months with the most recent chapter being 24.
It's a very well written and produced project that doesn't get the attention it really deserves just because it's mostly audio and text.
Glad BSU is getting more recognition
Even though it wasn't 100% made from scratch, I would like to give a shoutout to a not so well known project that has a lot of heart and effort: The JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven anime by ST Pro Studio
It's essentially the game's story mode with skins, SFX and OST from the first six parts of the anime (With Parts 7 and 8 using songs from Parts 1, 2 and 4). At the end of each month, a new chapter is released (Chapter 7 will likely release in a few days)
Also, I would like to thank the modding community for All Star Battle R (Specially to some like ArtOnTheSide, Jinx or Dani; who are making mods with an anime aesthetic) for keeping alive the interest on the game with their creativity
*Video Idea:* explaining how “flow” works in the new universe of parts 7-9 in the same vain as your videos on fate for the old universe. With the lava rock and mechanisms being so important so early on to Jojolands, it would be interesting explaining what is currently known about the concept of flow as well as how our understanding changes over the course of part 9. Thoughts?
He’s definitely gonna do that, but it’s gonna be a WHILE cuz it’s not really fully explained with part 9 yet
If you ever do a follow up I remember seeing a fan project called Moscow Calling. It’s set in Russia and uses concepts from Jojo. I don’t know how much of it is translated to English though.
Oooh, another rec is The Lighted Stage!
I would ADORE a video about 7th Stand User. Probably the best JoJo Fangame ever made, i appreciate the shoutout. Goated video as always.
A quick word of warning for anyone interested in jjba abridged, episodes 5 and 8 were taken down by the UA-cam copyright system and as far as I’m aware, antfish has either not attempted to dispute the claims or tried to dispute but failed.
There are no reuploads of these missing episodes to my knowledge, which is a shame because there are some pretty good jokes in them.
I may have discovered Duwang through the humorous voice over of Vargskelethor Joel
The best way of discovering it!
I really like the fan made openings for part 7 and part 8 by Nico Bellisario, and some of the leitmotif videos like Bites the Dust by Sober Soldier or Made in Heaven by TheAluminumDragon.
The goat uploads right when i get a nice ass bowl of cereal
Damn was it tasty?
@@TheBestChaseVariant was good as fuck 👍
What cereal?

If you were ever to do another one of these, the two fan manga parts made by AlgebraFalcon, Jojopolis and Bone ti Blades, are really good! The art starts out VERY rough but the writing is strong and the Stands are super well fleshed-out. There's also been massive improvement in the art since it started
An interesting thing about the Roha nes MADs is that some fans have made anime versions that 1-to-1 replace screenshots of panels with corresponding anime scenes
man i'd love a yakuza esque jojo game
i think itd be fun if you could customize your stand too, maybe even part of your stand's abilities is the ability to remember and copy other stand user abilities to let you use iconic ones from the series
I actually worked a bit on The 7th Stand User 2 before I stopped keeping up with the project. I helped transcribe the manga into a script format. One of the choices for the female protagonist being a gyaru might have been my suggestion, but it's been so long since then that I don't remember, lol.
Wait if that's the case then is there a reason why for over a year there has been radio silence on the dev team's social media? Sorry if I'm coming across as a bit pushy and if you don't have a concurrent answer due to you having left the dev team some time prior then that's ok. I just hope the development on that game didn't die off because I really enjoyed the first 7th stand user and after trying the demo I really want this game to come to fruition!
@@josuerosales6485 Unfortunately, I was only in contact with them through a sort of community notepad with a chatroom. I forgot about it for a few months before checking back in and finding it was a ghost town, presumably having made the transition to Patreon or Discord. They are still around, since they posted an update last month confirming they're still working on it and could use some more devs. I too hope they can make the game happen.
I think my favourite fan made jojo content are all fan made parts I've seen.
People making their own jojo with their backstories, stands, and colourful cast. It gets my creative juices flowing and makes me want to do my own one day
If we're talking about JoJo-inspired projects, I can't recommend enough the TTRPG "Eidolon: Become Your Best Self" and the accompanying podcast Eidolon Playtest. The game is very JoJo with a bit of Persona splashed in, where you create a character with an Eidolon (essentially a Stand) and get the freedom to come up with the craziest anime powers you can think of. The way battles play out also perfectly captures the kinetic yet tactical way in which Araki's battles play out on the page. A great time with friends, whether they're JoJo fans or not
What about the audio drama JoJo, the Lighted Stage for the second 'fan content' episode.
If you make a sequel video on this topic you should definitely include "One Cartoonist's Dream"
It's a compilation of Disney song parodies sung by the heroes and villains of JoJo.
One fan project I discovered back in 2020 is "Sunset Justice". It is supposed to be a light novel and also a fan game, the story is about what happened to Stroheim after Part 2 with new original characters. The light novel was actually completed and released but the website it was published on has been since taken down so it seems that the story is now unavaible, at the time I had forgotten about the project so I never had the chance to read it. About the game I think it never released and since there haven't been news about this project I think it never will.
Seeing all the fan made content by a lot of loyal fans has inspired me to make some of my own, hopefully in the future I’ll be able to release it and make a contribution to newer jojo fans who stumble upon the series like me and everyone else did
Same here, it all started for me with one little Jojo animatic on my channel.
But as I learned more about the series I think my obsession has grown due to it being such a spinoff goldmind.
I personally believe the world and lore is interesting enough that you don’t even NEED a joestar to be interesting, I feel Araki partially just uses that joestar blood as just a narrative hook to tie things together while also allowing himself to take the reeder wherever he wants.
Love seeing fans push that concept even further and involve past joestars while both being its own thing but still distinctly Jojo
I wanna be a voice actor among other things too, the fact that Jojo has been such a fun artistic outlet for us and so many others like us is crazy.
To think any one of us could be apart of some official Jojo works someday is crazy to think about
Literally one of the people I follow on twitter and is barely an adult got to do some official work in episodes for Stone Ocean AND chainsaw man!
That shits fucking insane, I really could be texting to gappys Dub actor right now and not even know.
No matter what, it’s great to hear how this series rubbed off on you and hope to see you and your work on the other side someday too once it’s out!
@@mrfact03s thank you
In the next video you should tell the audience about JOJO Disney Musical - One Cartoonist's Dream from Leon's channel. It has the most impressive concept for a JOJO related project and also music is incredible. I personally rewatching it every couple of mounth.
im so glad to see someone talking about roha_nes, his stuff used to be popular back before jojo got big with the anime. The part 3 Juves MAD is a heritage post and I remember people sharing it constantly back in the day
When I first finished part 7 I watched a fan animated ode to part 7 by the name of "【SBR】There‘s nothing else to say but THANk YOU GYRO" it animates some of the manga panels and use some of the voice lines from the jojo fighting games to make something truly beautiful. Hopefully you bring more light to it when you make the next video on this topic.
One of my favorite Jojo fan projects is the TTRPG "Jojo Carbon Interface". They have a whole series of the game going through an interesting story and the game is still being worked on. The game itself is a lot of fun too and really fits Jojo. When rewatching fights I can almost think of the game mechanics that the characters would be doing, like Joskue using the "secret action" mechanic to swallow the glove.
I have to say Go Beyond JoJolion I think is worth mentioning in relation to this topic. The author has been working on it for years and has breached hundreds of thousands of words (100+ chapters and at Milagro Man arc) in an attempt to 'cope with' the ending of JoJolion and rewrite the part with alot of time spent and dedication
The Kokoro Jojoru is a goated MAD series
I love how no one ever does or will call Twitter x, amazing video tho
Personal favorite can project is jackdripper’s YTP series of the entire anime. Really hilarious stuff I highly recommend it
If you are going to make another part of the best jojo fan projects, you can check out Jojo Moscow calling !
Its a russian fan manga which was obviously inspired from Jojo, and takes place in Russia.
You should definitely check it out, because it started in 2019, has 17 chapters and still ongoing! There's even an english translation (though the latest chapters dont have translation, but still something)
Thanks for covering all the fan stuff! It's always cool to see what others make with Jojo.
The Antfish abridged series was actually my life. Good thing he became recognized more as a voice actor, even if it was at the expense of the series lmao
Its to see the amount of passion the fandom has put into these fan projects
Was surprised to have not heard about a couple of these, good vid
7th Stand User mentioned, let’s gooooooo!
If you do eventually make a follow-up to this video I really hope you cover Lighted Stage. It seems to be ramping up to a conclusion and I’d love if more people were there to witness it
As many people have already said Mick voices Abbacchio instead of Mista in the Dub
Speaking of the dub I think it'd be a fun idea to make a differences video between the dub and the sub, though obviously the differences wouldn't be nearly as major as the manga ones you could point out fun things like the heavy accents of parts 1,2 and 5
The absence of Weather Report's Virtual Insanity is frankly disgusting
The JoJo MADs with Soul'd Out are some of the best. Especially the Part 6 one. The dream is still alive.
I absolutely LOVE the Jojo MADs! There was a great edit of the Part 4 one made using scenes from the anime, but unfortunately it's been lost to copyright and i haven't found a reupload ever since
I think there is a fan manga inspired by JoJo and set in Russia. Moscow calling, I think it's called. I am not a big fan personally, but if you want more material for the next video, this one is to be checked out!
Cant ever hear of RicePirate without thinking of his whole "power move" shit😂
Was looking for someone to post this! 😂
What about Jojo Moscow Calling?
I missed mentioning jojos moscow calling, a doujinshi that happens at the same time as part 4 of jojos
You’ve given me the motivation to start writing my JoJo project. I’ve got like twenty stands designed and all the plot and stuff, I just need to put pen to paper. Thank you homie, love your videos
My personal favorite is Antfish and enjoyed his unique performance of DIO which was base of Tim Curry. While not in the video, another fan Jojo parody project I recommend is Filthyramenking which he is known for recreating Jojo opening and episodes with copyright free stock photos.
I think you should talk about the three jojo death battle episodes. If you don't know death battle is a online vs show where they take 2 characters from different series, analyze them, and then try to determine who would win.
There are currently three jojo episodes:
Jotaro vs Kenshiro from fist of the Northstar which is a ok episode
Dio vs Alucard from Hellsing which is a god tier episode
And Jonathan vs Tanjiro from demon slayer which is a pretty good episode with a good ending
Also there's another vs show called one minute melee thats unresearched and does minute long fights that has a few jojo episodes as well, including Dio vs Sakuya from touhou which might be my absolute favorite vs episode of all time
We all know metamorphosis good ending is JoJo's best fan work
Great video; I’m a huge fan of Arklight’s art so I’m so shocked I didn’t know about their fan comic. Also I think the only thing of note you missed was even a solid reference to fan-made openings, most importantly Holy Steel and Go Beyond because they are so incredible and really drum up the hype since there’s no anime there yet. I also love fan-made stand eye catches with the music references and everything.
Thank you so much for helping me rediscover kokoro jojo
EVERYBODY READ 'PINK AMONG BLOOD RED ROSES', IT IS WORTH IT!
The 'Ryu ga Gotoku' studio (Yakuza games) developed a Yakuza style Hokuto no Ken game titled 'Fist of the North Star : Lost Paradise', so a Yakuza style Jojo game may very well happen some day.
The jojo Vento Aureo MAD was one of my first approach to jojo, so i love that video.
I'm so glad duwang was mentioned, always have good memories about reading it
There's a Jojo fan-manga called moscow calling, set in Russia, year 2000. I know that nowadays anything russian feels kinda akward, but this manga doesn't support war or putin, so I would recommend it
you didn't mention Gwinn and her awesome ost project ? it really slaps she deserves clout
It feels like christmas whenever hamon beat uploads
Blood Sun Vendetta was so cool to see. I know Mick and everyone involved had to work incredibly hard. I haven't heard anything in a while so I had hoped it was still in production
AllinAll's Steel Ball Run animated opera video is pretty good. Also the animator SmokedHam's channel has a Baccano opening parody using Golden Wind that's fun and well animated.
7th Stand User might be my favorite JoJo game of all time.
Mysta is voiced by Sean Chiplock, the same va who voiced Sorbet from la squadra (& possibly Gelato) along with Toyohiro. Mick Laurer is the correct va for abachio
