History WMG / ADifferentKindOfTruth

** Confirmed with Gyro, who appeared in chapter 11.

** Also, thanks to Valentine probably having a Persona with similar powers to D4C, he'll pull out alternates of Johnny in an attempt to kill him. These alternates ranging from just a similar Johnny to Shirou from FanFic/FateReachOut to the original Yu Narukami.

[[WMG: Since Persona 4 Arena + Ultimax are technically canon, Johnny's subtitle would be "The Bishōnen Tsun-Tsun Snark Sensei".]]

Honestly, it would not be that surprising.

Especially considering Minato/Hamuko is considered the second "Messiah" of the Persona World. Izanami might want the power that is still dormant within her body for the deity's plans for humanity.

** "S-Shut up! It's not like I ''want'' to be your friend or anything, stupid!"

That is all.

Because it wouldn't be shocking if the ancient mad scientist Pillar Man was somehow involved in the very concept of Shadows. Perhaps rather than creating the Stone Mask, Kars hoped to become a perfect being by mastering all aspects of the subconscious. Unfortunately, he still needed the Red Stone of Aja, thus leading to this universe's version of ''Battle Tendency''.

* Diego's inclusion is more of a likely possibility thanks to George mentioning a 'British punk' in Johnny's flashback. Who else is British that could surpass Johnny in his father's eyes?

* Or perhaps Dio is Nyarlathotep himself, created by the universal reboot. Due to Pucci's belief that he was acting on God's will, the universal energies caused by the Big Bang accommodated that belief, but Pucci's definition of God was so skewered that it created Nyarlathotep. Nyarlathotep had Dio's memories and desires, and his desire to see mankind destroyed is due to being dissatisfied that this new universe is not like the one he planned with Pucci. He also could be manipulating Izanami from where he was banished, specifically to punish the 'perversion' of Jonathan before having her kill humanity.

* As for the Charming Prince being Silver Chariot, all of the Shadows in the TV World are made out of mankinds repressed feelings and Igor's knowledge of Pucci's antics and Shadow Yosuke's Winds of Oblivion/Holy SAndstorm make it obvious that this is a rebooted universe, maybe some of the previous universes collective unconscious still exists affecting the TV World leading to the Charming Prince to take Silver Chariot's form?

After all, Irene is very similar to Jolyne despite some a happier life. Whose to say some alternates very close to their originals won't appear?

Jonathan being reborn into modern-day Japan would be stretching things a bit, but as per the rules of Made in Heaven, everyone from the previous universe should be in this new universe in one way or another. So, Joseph is Johnny's grandfather who married Suzie Q. She bore two children, a pair of twins: Holly and George Joestar after Joseph's father who died in WWII. Holly went off and married a Japanese man named Yoshiteru Kira, giving birth to Yoshikage Kira who here is Johnny's very distant cousin thanks to rumors of his sociopathy. George however married to Johnny's mother and Dojima's sister, who gave birth to Johnny and Nicholas. Thus preserving the Joestar line through several counterparts in this new universe, the only exceptions being this universe's Josuke, Giorno, and Jolyne's counterparts.

* An alternate of Enrico Pucci appear, due to the mention of a church that wasn't there originally in the shopping district. Most likely as the Devil Arcana for irony.

For all intents and purposes, this takes place during Johnny's youth much like how the first few chapter of Phantom Blood took place when Jonathan was a boy. However unlike Jonathan, Johnny is not seeking out to make friends yet is drawing closer to people and creating TrueCompanions out of the future members of the IT.

[[WMG: This version of Persona is Steel Ball Run, if it were a mixture of Phantom Blood and Diamond is Unbreakable.]]

* An alternate of Enrico Pucci appear, due to the mention of a church that wasn't there originally in the shopping district. Most likely as the Devil Arcana for irony.

* Because underneath all of JoJo's camp, the villains are very viscous and competent in ways Madara and Aizen wish they could be. A Vanilla Ice or HeroKiller type villain will come along near the end and kill a beloved teammate (most likely Yosuke, because he's practically a Zeppeli) in order to harden the IT's resolve to not make their death be in vain.

* Elizabeth is Jolyne's counterpart since they're both voiced by ''Creator/MiyukiSawashiro''
* Naoto is Giorno's counterpart because she could be a descendant of Diego Brando or Giorno and Naoto had ''Creator/RomiPark'' as their voice actress at one point or another.

* Chie is either Jean Pierre Polnareff or his sister, Sherry Polnareff's counterpart. Think about it, they're so similar. Chie and Polnareff both represent the Chariot Arcana, they both love martial and athletic pursuits, are best friends with someone who can control fire, and are far more hotheaded than the rest of their team, and both look down on their own intelligence when they're really quite smart.
** Going off that logic, that could mean that Yukiko is Avdol! They both control giant bird monsters with fire powers, both are best friends with someone who represents the Chariot, and both are the nicest members of the team.
** Yosuke is totally a Zeppeli given him being a total bro and foil to a Joestar, most likely Caesar given that when his Shadow tried to kill him, he used the special technique of his killer for extra irony.
*** Crap! Yosuke's a Zeppeli! He better get some life insurance filed out, ASAP!
** Maybe not. Remember that Gyro was always the second main protagonist of Steel Ball Run and the story is just starting. Maybe TIM plans on introducing Gyro later, not that it'll completely save Yosuke from dying since this IS a JoJo fic.
