New jojolion's been translated and it starts with a very bizarre Exposition Dump
my blogHamon is very simple. It does whatever the plot needs it to do. Same with the Spin. Although in that particular instance I think that woman was just punching Joseph for the heck of it.
Hmmm, interesting information dump at the start of the latest chapter.
Also, I guess I wasn't very far off the mark with saying that Karera was akin to Yukako, given the reveal of her Stand name.
I wonder if Araki did it just as a Call-Back to Cars or because he don't thinks he will have an opportunity to explain it later.
You claim that God is opressing us, but I see you opressing others without needing a God.Cool chapter, but what kind of stand name is Love Love Deluxe? Seem redundantly deja vu-ish.
we can now add "rock people" the "Weird Stuff in Jojo Lore" list.
All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.So is the twist that Araki doesn't seem to age because he is a rock person, not because he is a vampire?
Imagine what it'd be like if Joseph didn't stop Hamon training throughout Part 3 and beyond.
He'd look like his 19-year-old self, but with a beard!

I wonder what new moves Gappy is gonna get now that Jojolion is a bit farther along. I also kind of hope we get at least one more Part 8 representative for Eyes of Heaven.
If they want to put a few more JJL characters in, good choices would include Yashuo (Paisley Park can punch and a moveset based around choose-your-own-adventure mechanics would be cool), Yagiyama (Rock powers + Gravity powers = Crazy moveset) and maybe Kyou (Her stand has a bike, a lot can be done with that).
I was also thinking of Joshuu, but I feel his moveset would be a clone of Bruno's, just replace zippers with screws. He could maybe throw boulders at opponents or something?
Also, is it too early to include Karera and L.L. Deluxe? Maybe even throw a curveball and include JJL Kira with Bubble Killer Queen.

The VS Screen track for Eyes of Heaven is the best Loading Music. That might be due to being a huge sucker for Jazz, but godamn it's awesome, just like the entire music for the demo

No, it's mentioned that rock people's sleep schedules makes regular jobs unfeasible and specifically uses Mangaka as an example. (cue joke about Beserk's mangaka)
my blogI knew there was something bizarre about that Miura guy and his inconsistent schedule, especially since Buronson finished Fist of the North Star and 5 other mangas while Kentaro is still not done with that one.
I wonder who is going to be Jojolion's Final Boss. From that hint Araki gave us, it can be Miura as you mentioned, but it could also be Togashi. Actually Togashi is much more likely because, as a writer for Jump, he is closer to Araki. Also because his scribble chapters and him having once outright admitting to not have been writing to play Dragon Quest, Togashi feels much more like a villain than Miura.
Finished Part 7 so good..
Well, if this is going to mimic Part 4, the main villain will appear....in any second, actually, if Jojolion will be from the same size as SBR.

You claim that God is opressing us, but I see you opressing others without needing a God.I'm expecting the villain to say something among these lines to Jo2uke, based on the whole bizarre identity theme...
I am you and you are me
Also, I know I stated my previous guessing there was a joke, but after some thinking it doesn't feel that otherworldy to me anymore.
Also Diego in Eyes of Heaven is basically Dio with a calmer and slightly more collected delivery.

I have started Part 4 and the Higashikatas are suspicious. I wonder if like Part 4 barley any charcters die.
I'm actually thinking the villain might be Karera, as Kars counterpart. Not only do we see a flash of light upon meeting her, that name is too suspicious...
Boy, I really forgot about her. Yeah, the name itself bring several ideas. Unless Araki decides to subvert the whole thing this time
