  • From the stands, to the protagonist, to the message, JoJolion has solidified itself as one of the greatest parts in the series to date. This is why I think it's awesome.

    Jojolion is *significantly* better when every chapter is read back to back. I think the reason people think jojolion is confusing is that it's a monthly mystery story with alot of moving parts and people involved, and people just forget alot of details.

    No Seriusly think about it: the mask, the arrows, pillar men rock humans...
    That is what really connects all not only Dio.
    There is a thematic reason for what jojolion is directionless. Multiple times it is said that following the flow is important. And so does the story (probably will be the key to defeat the head doctor)

    • @divineshinobi1791

      Yeah his journey is one of self discovery and he finds things about himself through things he does. When he finds out about his origin he's too focused on who he once was instead of who he currently is.
      In chapter 92, Josuke finally comes to terms with his new identity and realizes that Kira and Josefumi are long dead and that they're memories are long gone and they will never come back. That moment really hit home for me and it one of my favorite moments not just in part 8, but in all of JoJo.

    Wow. I never noticed this awesomeness tbh. I though it was a directionless, complicated mess because i had a hard time seeing the whole. Because i didn’t understand its direction, journey or goal completly. But now i see that is because the series is being taken into an entierly new direction. And i first though it was a bad one but no. Its on the same level of awesomeness of oarts that came before it, but on part of the genre spectrum.
    JoJo is always epic no matter the part. Each part has its fare share of shortcomings, bad areas and so on. But in the greater picture. Jojo is one of the best manga series to exist (and probably to exist in the future as well if Araki foes part 9, but im getting WAAAY ahead of myself).
    It has such a braud bunch of genres with many interesting and enjoyable thematic experiences because of each parts separate stories and characters. It reached a wide audience where everyone has their favorite part, character or stand.
    JoJo is the shit, and i really, really like JoJo.

    • @StudioAlexOfficial
      @StudioAlexOfficial  4 роки тому +11

      Of course, every part has its issues, but Araki is a master at learning from and changing his past mistakes. Jojolion is a MUCH more complicated story than other parts, and it's when you look at the part as a whole that it becomes awesome. Can't wait to see how Araki finishes it up

Meanings between everything. Nothing in Jojolion seems to at surfice level at all. It is incredible how complex and difficult this part is to completly understand due to all these different connections and meanings that i Never even through of.

    Bro, thanks for this video! Jojolion is not only my favorite part, but also my favorite story. Almost entirely for the reason that it's about finding yourself and having no idea what direction your life is headed, but moving forward regardless. It also helps that it's a JoJo part and that Josuke wears a sailor outfit, Morioh is more fleshed out than it's ever been, my second favorite stand, Killer Queen, makes a comeback, my first favorite is Soft and Wet, and it's just absolutely bonkers. Nothing pleases me more than when a writer lets loose and not only puts their imagination to paper, but also lets the reader see a little bit inside their brain. It's pretty hard to pick a favorite when they're all so amazing and you appreciate them all a little more on a second viewing, but JoJolion blows them all out of the water for me.
    God, I really want to make a video or something about it, but I'm waiting for it to be over so I can just go all out with my praise for it

    The reason why so many are turned off of Jojolion, its supposed "directionless", is precisely why I love this Part. My curiosity when starting JJBA got the better of me, and every Part was spoiled for me. I didn't care, I was along for the ride and I was sold, completing the anime last summer and reading the manga because I needed more.
    Jojolion is the first time I do not know what is going to happen next. Every new chapter has me pouring over each page, looking for clues that will unravel the mystery. Chapters 99 and 100 had me running around my workplace (more like speed walking) trying to find someone I could talk to about the new revelations and where I think the story might go next. I bounce in anticipation in the week before a new chapter is released, excited to see what's going to happen and how Josuke is going to succeed.
    Yasuho has been dying in the driveway for over a year now, how is she going to be rescued? Given how Tusk evolved with Johnny in SBR, I wonder if Soft & Wet will also evolve as well? I have zero knowledge of what comes next, no idea what new information Araki will give us, and that excites me. I may have a couple theories in the works, but I don't mind when they get blown out the water each chapter.

    • @JoelGarcia-lu3tw
      @JoelGarcia-lu3tw 3 роки тому +2

      I think Soft and Wet HAS to evolve and change, since he's the only Higashikaata family member (that we know of, Kaato's stand is still unnamed) that doesnt fit the stand naming scheme; having KING somewhere in the name. Even Mitsuba, who isn't a Higashikaata by blood has her stand fit into the naming scheme.
      King Creole and King Crimson are the most popular theories rn

      @@Mattew9001 ​ I totally agree with the second part of your message; Jojolion explores greatly concepts of love, relationship and family. We can see that with every main character in a multitude of ways. It is mainly because of those connections (relatable) between characters that the cast of Jojolion is so enjoyable.
      but there are elements of "romance"/love in every part (some part has really impactful romance) but they are light or not greatly developed in the story (let give 1 example for each part if I remember well) :
      Part 1: Jonathan and Erina (I think the most known and the most important)
      Part 2: Joseph and suzi Q
      Part 3: Polnareff and the woman he met while being transform as a child (the part didn't really explore the concept of love but there are several moments of seduction and Dio "use" a lot of people (mainly woman) thanks to being fabulous)
      Part 4: Kochi and Yukako (kira and his "wife" are very interesting too because he's not sure about his feeling of love)
      Part 5: "gay" couples in Passione (it"s the first thing that came in my mind but it's unclear)
      Part 6: (Great one) Jolyne and Anasui (I would love more details about Jotaro and his (ex-!?)wife and for the joke: DIO x Pucci)
      Part 7: Funny Valentine and Scarlet Valentine (-> Lucy Steel)

    Awesome video with incredible attention to detail and production value. I’m shocked this channel doesn’t have half a million subs yet. If he continues to put out this caliber of content and makes the output more frequent he’s well on his way

    People who explain loose ends in jojolion seem to use the word “maybe” a bit too much to really convince me

    Part Ranking: 7 > 8 > 4 = 5 > 2 > 6 > 3 > 1
    Best JoJo: Johnny
    Best JoBro: Gyro
    Best Villain: Funny Valentine
    Steel Ball Run is a perfect 10/10 to me but honestly Jojolion is very close to that as well and who know where it will go from here.

      Personally Gappy for me has been the best JoJo ever since he mets Holly but yeah his character development hasnt fully formed yet like Johnny who starts as insuferrable prick into literal Saint.
      Curious to see if Araki able to write better JoBro than Gyro tho.

      @@Game-ne5nb The beauty of johnny is his character growth, we know him first as a arrogant douche who bite more than he can chew and getting his life gone downhill, entering the race for a very selfish purpose, yet throughout the story we saw Johnny "learn to walk again" grow as a person which later in part 8 show that Johnny actually a very nice person and some even considers him as Sainy.

      Seems a bit biased to P7 lol, I mean you're entitled to your opinions I guess but this just literally says
      "Part 7 is the best part" which makes it redundant typing best character, JoBro, villain, etc...

    It annoys me when people shrug this series off because “you can’t a jojo part that doesn’t heavily relate to Dio”…as though Battle Tendency didn’t lay the groundwork. Joseph and his arc centre more around his family and self discovery than Dio’s curse. It’s not about Dio and what he did, it’s about Jonathan, Erina, George and Lisa Lisa and how they’re all connected to Joseph. Dio’s actions are, of course, playing a part but not a huge one as compared to all the other parts.
    Then he’s literally blown out of the water by the introduction of the Pillar Men and Kars in particular. The stone mask, it’s abilities, vampires, everything that makes Dio such a formidable force in the first part and all the others and everything that makes him special is torn down, drastically minimised in the face of these literal giants from ancient times, so beyond anyone’s understanding that nothing else matters except desperately trying to find some way to stop them.
    Just as there was a lot Joseph had to learn about himself, Josuke in Jojolion is faced with similar issues. Battle Tendency in many ways laid the groundwork for part 8 of Jojo and it’s one of the most beloved entries in the series. It simply isn’t fair to count Jojolion out, especially when it’s still in progress.

    Most importantly.. why does he have 4 balls?

      It's cool to see how even the answer to "why does the main character have 4 testicles?" is a spoiler
