History Webcomic / JoJosBizarreSummerBreak

''[=JoJo's=] Bizarre Summer Break'' is essentially both a LighterAndSofter and DenserAndWackier AlternateUniverse retelling of the ''Manga/StardustCrusaders'' arc. As such, there are a few major differences, some of which include: Jonathan [[SparedByTheAdaptation not dying]] and living on to become a MemeticBadass, Dio (along with most of his servants) [[AdaptationalHeroism never turning evil]] and being a firm ally of the Joestars, AlternateCharacterInterpretation for the majority of the cast, and utilizing RuleOfFunny, RuleOfCool, and RuleOfAwesome all to ''even further extremes'' than the source material. Despite that, it is chock-full of references, ShoutOut[=s=], and ContinuityNod[=s=] to specific events from the original series.

The webcomic is also a sequel to another (equally funny) webcomic by the same author in the form of ''Dio's Bizarre Adventure'', which is a similar retelling of the ''Manga/PhantomBlood'' arc that sets up the alternate characterizations of Jonathan and Dio. A translation can be read on Danbooru [[https://danbooru.donmai.us/pools/6532?page=1 here]], and the typeset version has also been compiled into a [[https://www.reddit.com/r/StardustCrusaders/comments/632zwb/dios_bizarre_adventure_masterpost/ masterpost]] on Reddit.

* CallForward: A wall that has cracks the [[Manga/BattleTendency shape of a monster face]] appears in chapter 6.

* WidgetSeries: Even more so than the original manga. Just reading chapter 1 will instantly show you the insanity this series offers and is not meant to be taken seriously.

* EstablishingSeriesMoment: The moment you see Jonathan as his adult self even though he's [[YoungerThanTheyLook really a child]] and George Joestar dressed as Franchise/SailorMoon, you'll know [[WidgetSeries what kind of series this is]].

** Hamon is established as while keeping its users strong and healthy throughout their lives, it does not halt their aging. Here, all Hamon users look exactly the same as they did in their prime. In fact, Joseph's true form is how he looked in ''Battle Tendency'', but he chooses to look like an old man for public appearances.

!!Jorge Joest - erm both webcomics has the following tropes:

* AdaptationalBadass: Anne, the runaway girl, saves Jotaro twice and even kills Forever and Captain Tenille.

* PointyHairedBoss: Diavolo is ''not'' an intimidating villain. He's timid and nervous, prone to lashing out with his Stand if startled or scared, and claims to have been appointed the leadership against his will. Much of his status comes from his legions of admirers (due to him having a very strange and seemingly supernatural origin) who donate enormous amounts of money to the Organization - the Capos are just fine letting him be boss as long as the money rolls in. Narancia thinks his late wife was the one keeping things together, and Diavolo has gotten even worse since her death. [[spoiler: Doppio may actually be his more dominant personality]].

* AdaptationalHeroism: [[{{Jerkass}} Dio]] is less of a jerk here in webcomic than in the manga. It's kinda noticeable since Jonathan and his descendants inversely TookALevelInJerkass.

* KickTheDog: Dio still kicks Danny, though he's not really on his right mind after turning to a vampire.

* SkewedPriorities: So Dio was accidentally turned into a vampire, began rampaging through the mansion, [[KickTheDog kicked Danny]] causing its flames to scatter throughout the mansion, and keeps trying to kill Jonathan. Jonathan overlooks them all and hesitates to kill his step-brother. But the [[spoiler:sight of his father wearing his pocket watch over his crotch caused him to snap and kill his father in a fit of rage.]] Even Dio doesn't know how to react to this revelation.

* AdaptationalWimp: Jotaro, of all people, is hit with this trope. Here he's just a teenager with a stand who wants to meet his uncle.

* CantRefuseTheCallAnymore: Dio still turned into a vampire with his head attached to Jonathan's body, only this time Jonathan also survived thanks to his Hamon powers, and he got George's body instead.

* HamToHamCombat: This is Jojo we are talking about. Special mention to Jotaro and Senator Philips, who screams personalized parts of the JustForFun/NavySealCopypasta at each other.

* KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler:Cioccolata and Secco are still serial killers in this continuity, but they manage to survive the events of the story no worse for wear and are last seen asking Polpo to join Passione]].

** Dio has pictures of his son [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureVentoAureo Giorno]] in his phone.

The third installment is now in the works: "[=GioGio=]'s Bizarre Treasure Hunt", which is a retelling of ''Manga/GoldenWind''. It's also available [[https://danbooru.donmai.us/pools/14831 on Danbooru]].

* SparedByTheAdaptation: While Sorbet and Gelato are still missing, the hidden message in their final note states that they're eloping instead of being tortured to death.

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: All of the members of Passione who were antagonistic in canon are significantly friendlier to Bruno's squad. Fights do still end up breaking out, particularly around the Hitman Team, but they're caused by over-zealousness and miscommunication rather than anyone actually desiring to kill the other. That is, with the exception of Cioccolata and Secco, who are just as deranged as they were in the source material, albeit [[LaughablyEvil with their goofier aspects turned up]].

* AdaptationalVillainy: [[spoiler:Giorno is a downplayed example. He's about the same as his canon-self in the present, but [EfanteTerrible as a child]], he actually was working to become strong enough to ''wipe out mankind'' because of the pain he went through as a test subject. He only stopped after he realized he liked improving himself more than harming people.]]

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: All of the members of Passione who were antagonistic in canon are significantly friendlier to Bruno's squad. Fights do still end up breaking out, particularly around the Hitman Team, but they're caused by over-zealousness and miscommunication rather than anyone actually desiring to kill the other.

''[=JoJo's=] Bizarre Summer Break'' is a webcomic created by Website/{{Pixiv}} artist [[https://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?id=681866 Utano]]. As the title implies, it is based off of the ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'' franchise by Creator/HirohikoAraki.

* BigBrotherBully: Jonathan is this to Dio. Dude even brought a coffin just to prank Dio on his wedding party.

* CosmicPlaything: Poor Dio. Guy just wants to live a normal life. Unfortunately for him that ended when he was adopted by the [[WeirdnessMagnet Joestars.]] Of course, [[CuriosityIsACrapshoot his innate curiosity]] does ''not'' help matters any.

* {{Cuckoosnarker}}: Jonahthan is one of the kookiest characters, whose quirks have included, but are not limited to, making fun of Dio whenever he gets the chance, having a hellhound as a pet and does "Dio-telling" when he runs out of ideas. He can also be quite snarky when he gets the urge.

* HardHead: Jonathan is stated to have a really tough head. It can even stop a fleshbud from entering his forehead.

* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: Dio revels he knows how to use Hamon and proceeds to channel it in his body to get a chance to kill Tarkus. He saves himself by chopping off his head and it accidentally attaches to Jonathan's body.]]
* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: Each chapter titles is a parody of some of Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion titles.

-->'''Dio:''' I don't want to stop being human Jojo! I don't intend to transcend humanity!"

* SceneTransition: Some scenes, especially [[spoiler: Dio vs. Tarkus]] have beautiful fight scenes that is Webcomic/OnePunchMan levels of fluidity.
* SkewedPriorities: So Dio was accidentally turned into a vampire, began rampaging through the mansion, [[KickTheDog kicked Danny]] causing its flames to scatter throughout the mansion, and keeps trying to kill Jonathan. Jonathan overlooks them all and hesitates to kill his step-brother. But the [[spoiler:sight of his father wearing his pocketwatch over his crotch caused him to snap and kill his father in a fit of rage.]] Even Dio doesn't know how to react on this revelation.

** In Chapter 2, Jonathan want to introduce Dio to his Hamon master in hopes of getting him interested in Hamon. Dio, remembering how his meeting with [[AttackHello Speedwagon went,]] tries to runs away shortly. [[GutPunch He should have put more effort to it.]]

-->'''Dio''':"What's the minimum number of pages your department requires you to write?"
-->'''Jonathan''':"What was that? How many breads have you eaten in your life?"

-->'''Jonathan''': "DAMN IT DIOOO!!!" *rolls over the river*

* UmbrellaOfTogetherness: In some scenes Jonathan's bag has his and Erina's named carved or stitched on it.

* WidgetSeries: Even more so than the original manga. Just reading chapter 1 will instantly show you the insanity this series offers and is not meant to be take seriously.
* WeakenedByTheLight: Dio has to carry a parasol whenever he goes out during the day..

* AccidentalMurder: Jotaro accidentally crushes Grey Fly when Kakyoin knocked him out in the plane for chasing said stand. The crusaders didn't notice anything.
* TheAce: Polnareff, of all people, is this as he was able to defeat Devo the Cursed, J.Geil and Enya with ease. Jonathan is another contender, with him possessing a game breaker version of Hermit Purple and [[spoiler: Straizo had to send him to a wild goose chase in order for his plans to succeed]].

** The characters are shown using smartphones to contact each other. Smartphones did exists in the 90's but they are still in their blocky design, while the ones used are modern ones.
** Twitter supposedly exists here, as DIO is shown using it at one chapter and Mariah is a social media influencer.

* AmusementParkOfDoom: Subverted. The amusement park the gang visits is a normal one. Unfortunately, The Joestar family curse activates even in plane rides, Jotaro managed to insult a meditating monk, and Kakyoin randomly finds a baby's spirit(Mannish Boy). Jotaro also attracts the attention of High Priestess, which swallows their submarine ride.

** Stands that doesn't have a stand user appear as attraction rides, such as Death 13, High Priestess, Judgement and Lovers.

--> '''Joseph''': "Out of the 299 flights I've ridden, 299 of them has crashed. [[TemptingFate But I think we'll be fine"]]
--> '''Jotaro''': "Hold on gramps. What'd you just say?"

* ComedicSociopathy: Nearly everyone is an asshole in this doujin save for a few characters like Hol Horse, Avdol and DIO.
* CreepyCrossdresser: Joseph Joestar crossdresses as a hobby in this webcomic. His old form qualify him as this, while in his younger form he is quite a WholesomeCrossdresser as Mariah can attest.

** Kakyoin recounts that he met his doppelganger in his last visit to Egypt to creep Jotaro out. In hindsight he thinks it's a stand user posing as him (it's Rubber Soul transformed as him).
** Jotaro thinks he met his doppelganger when meets two of his lookalikes. First one is his grandfather Joseph who decided to show off his younger form by wearing the former's clothes. Second one is his IdenticalStranger Oingo who looks exactly like Jotaro rather than his younger brother Boingo.

* DualAgeModes: Joseph can freely shift between his part 2 and 3 ages thanks to his Hamon training.

* FourLinesAllWaiting: The webcomic juggles mini-arcs starting from their arrival in Egypt and Jonathan's departure to Tibet. From chapter 60 onwards, the plot splits as everyone is separated from [[spoiler:Straizo's surprise raid.]] The narrative switches as [[spoiler: Jonathan's struggle with zombies, Straizo fights with Joseph, Avdol, Iggy and Vanila Ice deals with Kenny G, Polnareff fights J.Geil's zombie, DIO struggles with Arabia Fats as Jotaro rushes to him. These threads are resolved quickly and leads to a linear narrative of Straizo vs. Kakyoin, Jotaro vs Dio and Straizo vs Jonathan in that order.]]

** Jotaro stabs hinself in the leg to [[{{Irony}} splash DIO's eyes with blood when he uses time stop.]]
* HardHead: Jotaro inherited his great-greatfather's hardheadedness, figuratively and literally. It saved him a couple of times and was the reason the fleshbud didn't attach to him (poor DIO).
* HypocriticalHumor: Joseph, whose hobby is crossdressing and who walked around naked in daylight, calls [[spoiler:Straizo]] a filthy old geezer for shutting up a woman who wont stop screaming.
--> '''Joseph:''' "Bastard! I bey your next line will be "If you don't Ill kiss you with my tongue!" right!?"
--> '''Narrator:''' "Unjust suspicion"
--> '''Joseph:''' "How dare you make a move on a young lady you filthy old geezer!"
--> *shows him wearing a scrunchie*
--> '''Narrator:''' "Look who's talking."

* ItRunsInTheFamily: George's crossdressing tendencies showed up again in Joseph.

* KarmaHoudini: Even after [[spoiler:turning the whole Hamon tribe into zombies, wrecking havoc in the Joestar Manor and almost killing Kakyoin, Straizo was able to escape Jonathan's clutches and gets his wish of punching him at least once. At least he has the decency of feeling regret over what he's done and healed Kakyoin back to health.]]

* LaughingMad: Jotaro and Polnareff after Kakyoin tricks them in checking out the cursed mirror with Alessi inside. Iggy mocks them by making a similar face.

* NightmareFetishist: Boingo draws creepy manga reminiscent to Thoth's art style and wishes that all good-looking people die. Not even his big brother Oingo can escape his wrath.

** When Mariah caught Joseph and Avdol in a compromising position, Joseph tears out his clothes to hide is crossdressing tendencies while chasing her. That said, he's still labeled as a pervert by everyone who saw him. He also strips while inside the manor as there is a no crossdressing policy there.

* NotWhatItLooksLike: Joseph and Avdol gets caught in the infamous magnetic position by Mariah who wants to upload the picture on Twitter to gain more followers.

* {{Pun}}: The 4-koma titles are usually derived from who is the focus of each panels and whatever is happening in that panel, for example: Kujo __-taro for ones focusing on Jotaro and (Insert action here)! Polnareff for Polnareff.

* RaceAgainstTheClock: [[spoiler:After DIO was accidentally hit with a fleshbud, Jotaro only has three minutes to remove the fleshbud before DIO dies.]]

** He first snaps after Jotaro calling him ugly one too many times and Polnareff revealing that he always though his hair is weird.

--> *text on the wall*: When you see these scribbles, turn back and you are-"
--> '''Avdol''': "What the. When I turn back there's nothing.."
--> *text on the wall*: an idiot (lol).
--> '''Avdol''': [[ComicalAngryFace "How Annoying!"]]

--> '''Vanilla Ice''': [[ComicalAngryFace "How Annoying!"]]

* SleptThroughTheApocalypse:[[spoiler: After saving Joseph's life, Caesar accidentally knocks Joseph out again, making him unconscious for the next 15 hours and missing out the action.]]
* StealthPun: In the luxury liner, the animals on the loose are: an orangutan, pig, elephant, snakes and [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers Hol Horse]]

** In chapter 30, Steely Dan turns himself to a human bridge while Jotaro is standing on top of him.

* TalkingAnimal: We can hear Iggy and Pet Shop's thoughts when they communicate with each other. Humans cannot hear them, so Terence and Iggy has to use their stand's power to know what pet shop is trying to communicate.
* TranslationConvention: Averted, as it is pointed out that everyone is speaking English. The author had some fun with the "I can see your panties" translation here. Polnareff is shown not understanding japanese and Joseph has a little knowledge in the language.

* VitriolicBestBuds: Jotaro and Kakyoin. Ever since meeting each other, they always spend their time with each other, albeit full of insults and whatnot. Kakyoin may get exasperated by Jotaro's antics, but will defend his best friend from [[spoiler: Straizo]].

* WebcomicTime: In-verse the characters remarked how everything happened within the span of 4 days. In real time the doujin took around 4 years to be completed.

* {{Yonkoma}}: The webcomic uses the 4-panel-per-page format, as opposed to Dio's Bizarre Advernture's standard comic format.

* ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything: As expected from Utano, the various "enemy" Stand users aren't particularly hostile and are usually talked down by the heroes without any deaths. In addition, the Organization as a whole don't do too much crime, as they receive most of their money from Diavolo's admirers. Diavolo also explicitly forbids drug racketeering. [[spoiler:The ban on drugs actually stems from a traumatizing incident in which he was stabbed by a junkie]].

* InSpiteOfANail: [[spoiler:Bruno still gets impaled by King Crimson and brought back partway by Giorno as a walking corpse.]]

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: All of the members of Passione who were antagonistic in canon are significantly more friendly to Bruno's squad. Fights do still end up breaking out, particularly around the Hitman Team, but they're caused by over-zealousness and miscommunication rather than anyone actually desiring to kill the other.

* GuardianEntity: [[spoiler:Doppio seems to be a straighter version of this compared to how [[SuperpoweredEvilSide Diavolo functioned]] in the main canon. At the very least, he presents himself to Diavolo as someone he can depend on to serve him. True to his word, he emerges for the first time when Diavolo's steering committee tries to coerce him into opening up the drug trade.]]
* InSpiteOfNail: [[spoiler:Despite everything, Bruno still gets impaled by King Crimson and brought back partway by Giorno as a walking corpse.]]

* CosmicPlaything: Poor Dio. Guy just wants to live a normal life. Unfortunately for him that ended when he was adopted by the [[WeirdnessMagnet Joestars.]]

* WeakenedByTheLight: Dio has to carry a parasol around in the daytime to walk around.

* GuardianEntity: [[spoiler:Doppio seems to be a straighter version of this compared to how [[SuperpoweredEvilSide Diavolo functioned]] in the main canon. At the very least, he presents himself to Diavolo as someone he can depend on whenever he feels afraid or lost. True to his word, he emerges for the first time when Diavolo's steering committee tries to coerce him into opening up the drug trade.]]
