History YMMV / JojosBizarreAdventureStoneOcean

* MemeticLoser: Anasui is often depicted as a ButtMonkey in fanworks. ''[[VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureEyesOfHeaven Eyes of Heaven]]'' furthered this by making Jolyne have unique intros and [=DHAs=] with Ermes and Weather Report, but not him.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Foo Fighters especially given her sheer popularity. In and despite of being one of the main characters she only gets one major fight which is really just helping Jolyne defeat Kenzou. Not helping is the fact that [[spoiler: quickly afterwards she is killed by Pucci only halfway through the story

* ArcFatigue: A lot of the arcs towards the end are really long ranging from about 10 to 12 chapters in length. Most notable are the Bohemian Rhapsody and Heavy Weather arcs which are some of the longest non-final battle arcs in the series. It doesn't help that for many the Stand battles in this part don't have much going on in terms of actual fighting.

** [[spoiler: The universe reset at the end of the part. Was it an emotional sendoff to parts 1 through 6 that acted as a satisfying conclusion to the long saga or was it a cop-out ending that made the wholesale slaughter of the protagonists pointless and felt like a contrived means of concluding the initial continuity.]]
** Stone Ocean has quite possibly the strangest, most out-there stand powers in the entire franchise. There's a lot of contention as to whether Araki took it too far, with many feeling that some of them are SO kooky that they don't make sense, with [[spoiler: Heavy Weather]] being the most cited example. It's to the point where Stone Ocean is often accused of having the weakest stand fights in the series.
* DieForOurShip: Anasui gets this from fans who prefer to ship Jolyne with other characters, it's not hard to find fanworks of him being a ButtMonkey or even just plainly ignored.
* DracoInLeatherPants: Pucci gets this treatment as much as Dio. It does help that he is more sympathetic than other antagonists and there are some fans who found his motivations more understandable than the protagonists. But then again we are talking about the guy who [[spoiler: killed all but one of the main cast.]]

** Emporio has slowly started becoming a popular character. Unlike other protagonists in the series his Stand is rather weak and he doesn't do much in the way of action but many fans ended up feeling [[TheWoobie really bad for the poor kid]] especially [[spoiler: after the ending.]] Being the one who [[spoiler: inherits Weather's Stand, defeats Pucci and finally ends the Joestar's never-ending battle certainly made him a favorite among readers.]]
* EstrogenBrigade: Being the only part with a female protagonist and featuring a mostly female cast, this part is naturally the most popular among the female portion of the fandom.
* FanPreferredCouple:
** No matter how much Anasui wants to marry Jolyne, many fans will always prefer shipping her with Ermes and/or Foo Fighters.
** This part made Dio/Pucci the most popular Dio shipping.
* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: ''Stone Ocean'' is perhaps the least popular part in Japan given how it strayed away from the shounen tropes of previous parts. In the United States, however, it has a much larger fanbase with many seeing it as a worthy precursor to ''Steel Ball Run''. A lot of elements in ''Stone Ocean'' are also more appealing to Americans such as the fact that it takes place in Florida, and is a prison battle story [[Manga/DeadmanWonderland much like another manga that is more popular in the United States.]] Jolyne herself is also one of the most popular characters in the United States with about as large a following as Joseph and Josuke.
* HarsherInHindsight: It can get uncomfortable reading the Highway to Hell arc after learning of Alexander McQueen's suicide in 2010.
* HilariousInHindsight: The carrier bird being named "Savage Garden" simply passed everyone's radar.. until "I Want You" was used as the ending theme for the Part 4 anime and now many have come to believe that Araki predicted the future. Made even more apparent by the fact that the band ''Music/SavageGarden'' is mostly affiliated with JJBA these days because of it.

** Dio/Pucci. While most of Dio's male henchmen were practically infatuated with the guy (including one who appears in this part), Pucci was the most fanatically loyal of his henchmen. There's also a flashback where Dio is in bed with Pucci.
** As stated below Weather/Annasui in a case of PairTheSpares.

* ItWasHisSled:
** The [[spoiler:universe reset]] is widely known by even people who have not read Part 6 yet. Blame Parts 7 and 8.
** Weather Report being the [[spoiler: brother of Pucci]].
** The fact that [[spoiler: all of the protagonists minus Emporoio and Jotaro are killed off in the final battle.]] Jotaro especially however as one [=JoJoke=] involves [[spoiler: pointing out how Thoth in Part 3 predicted his death]].

** Jolyne/Ermes in some of the post-chapter sketches, and even in one of the manga volumes, shows them being really intimate with each other.

* NoYay: There are some fans who would like to ship [[FoeYay Pucci/Weather]] but the fact that they are [[spoiler: brothers]] makes it hard for fans to think past the {{Squick}}.

* ShipMates: A small crowd of Jolyne/Ermes shippers who don't hate Anasui pair him with Weather Report.

** Jolyne's introduction in the first chapter complaining that a guard caught her masturbating.
** Jolyne awakening to "Stone Free" for the first time and attempting to use it to escape.
** Foo Fighters inhabiting her human body and learning how to drink.
** Jolyne's epic fist fight with Viviano Westwood.
** "Bohemian Rhapsody" creating the mother of all cameos and bringing various fictional characters to life.
** Weather Report using "Heavy Weather" for the first time.
** [[spoiler: Pucci singlehandedly killing Foo Fighters, Weather Report, Narciso, Ermes, and Jotaro.]]
** [[spoiler: Jolyne's death after she protected Emporio from Pucci.]]
** [[spoiler: Emporio using Weather Report to defeat Pucci.]]
** [[spoiler: The creation of the new world at the end and Emporio being reunited with alternate universe versions of the protagonists.]]

* TooCoolToLive:
** [[spoiler:Foo Fighters, and Jolyne herself too. Among all of the parts, this one is the most brutal about this trope as with the exception of Emporio all of the protagonists are killed by Pucci. Even series long-runner Jotaro wasn't safe from the wholesale slaughter. There's also Pucci for those who were rooting for him or at least liked him.]]
** [[spoiler: The entire original continuity itself. The ending implies that every character and location from the first six parts have been erased from existence and many of the characters we've come to love from those parts whiles still alive now live as different people with no memories of their past lives. Though in reverse there is also the possibility that the universe reset brought some of the dead protagonists back to life.]]
* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: Often described as the part where Araki was preparing himself to leave Shounen Jump. While ''Vento Aureo'' had its moments, ''Stone Ocean'' is filled with even more amounts of gratuitous violence, many Stands with abilities that are [[NightmareFuel outright frightening]], tons of sexual content, and having a cast of mostly older females. Yet this was still the last part of [=JoJo=] that was fully serialized in Shounen Jump.

* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Until Funny Valentine was introduced, Pucci was the most sympathetic villain in the entire franchise. It all comes full circle in his backstory where it turns out that [[spoiler: the only reason he turned to villainy is that at birth he was convinced his twin brother died and no one ever told Weather the girl he liked was their sister.]]

* IronWoobie: Implied with Foo Fighters who [[spoiler: admits in her final moments that all she ever wanted was to be accepted as a normal person after inhabiting a human body.]]

* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Until Funny Valentine was introduced, Pucci was the most sympathetic villain in the entire franchise. Unlike the other villains he actually had understandable motivations for why he wanted to do what he did and some fans even wanted him to win in the end just because of his tragic backstory.

* MemeticMolester: As if DIO wasn't already a FountainOfMemes, the flashbacks involving him with Pucci in this part have caused him to enter this status as well.

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Anasui, is he a funny and interesting character? Or is he an unlikable jerk with his obsession with Jolyne being too creepy?

* ItWasHisSled: The [[spoiler:universe reset]] is widely known by even people who have not read Part 6 yet. Blame Parts 7 and 8.

* ItWasHisSled: [[spoiler: The universe reset]] is widely known by even people who have not read Part 6 yet.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: [[BadassAdorable Foo Fighters]], thanks to her unique character concept, to the point that one of the most common complaints about ''[[VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureAllStarBattle All Star Battle]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureEyesOfHeaven Eyes of Heaven]]'' is that she doesn't have any major appearances.

* NoYay: There are some fans who would like to ship [[FoYay Pucci/Weather]] but the fact that they are [[spoiler: brothers]] makes it hard for fans to think past the {{Squick}}.

* HoYay: Dio/Pucci. While most of Dio's male henchmen were practically infatuated with the guy (including one who appears in this part), Pucci was the most fanatically loyal of his henchmen. There's also a flashback where Dio is in bed with Pucci.

* TooCoolToLive: [[spoiler:Foo Fighters, and Jolyne herself too. Among all of the parts, this one is the most brutal about this trope as with the exception of Emporio all of the protagonists are killed by Pucci. Even series long-runner Jotaro wasn't safe from the wholesale slaughter. There's also Pucci for those who were rooting for him or at least liked him.]]

* TheWoobie: Jolyne, starts out really hostile towards Jotaro since he was absent for most of her life, even during times where she needs him the most. The whole part revolves around her trying to restore Jotaro's memories and Stand, [[spoiler:only to die at the end just as she could finally bond with her father. In the new universe, however, she is living a normal life and is very likely having a better relationship with her father]].

** No matter how much Annasui wants to marry Jolyne, many fans will always prefer shipping her with Ermes and/or Foo Fighters.

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: ''Stone Ocean'' is perhaps the least popular part in Japan given how it strayed away from the shounen tropes of previous parts. In the United States however, it has a much larger fanbase with many seeing it as a worthy precursor to ''Steel Ball Run''. A lot of elements in ''Stone Ocean'' are also more appealing to Americans such as the fact that it takes place in Florida, and is a prison battle story [[Manga/DeadmanWonderland much like another manga that is more popular in the United States.]] Jolyne herself is also one of the most popular characters in the United States with about as large a following as Joseph and Josuke.

** Guess uses her Stand to turn Jolyne into one of her dolls, forces her to speak in a "cute" manor, and after her defeat swears eternal loyalty towards Jolyne.

* RootingForTheEmpire: Unlike previous villains in the franchise, Pucci has well-intentioned motivations for his goal and a sympathetic backstory. There are some readers who actually wanted to see his victory over the protagonists... [[spoiler: It does help that he came close in killing off all of the protagonists minus Emporio and was successful in creating a new universe... just not the one he wanted.]]

** "Bohemian Rhapsody" creating the mother of all cameos and brining various fictional characters to life.

** While it's understandable that Joseph is simply too old for action anymore, there are some fans who question why Josuke and Giorno were not present in the finale. Pucci had created a global catastrophe so you'd expect the Speedwagon Foundation would give Jotaro as much help as they can. It doesn't help that the Speedwagon Foundation knows of both of their existences and in Giorno's case Araki has hinted that he was in Florida at the time. Bringing in Giorno and Josuke could have also created a crossover situation à la ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}''. Having Josuke and Giorno in the finale could have also allowed Okuyasu, Koichi, Rohan, Yukako, Mista, and Trish show up and allow all of these characters to interact with the new characters for this part. In fact in the case of the Part 4 characters, readers would finally be able to see what they've been up to since the ending.
* TooCoolToLive: [[spoiler:Foo Fighters, and Jolyne herself too. Among all of the parts this one is the most brutal about this trope as with the exception of Emporio all of the protagonists are killed by Pucci. Even series long-runner Jotaro wasn't safe from the wholesale slaughter. There's also Pucci for those who were rooting for him or at least liked him.]]

The whole part revolves around her trying to restore Jotaro's memories and Stand, [[spoiler:only to die at the end just as she could finally bond with her father. In the new universe however, she is living a normal life and is very likely having a better relationship with her father]].

** Enrico Pucci's actions attracted to Florida three young men who were all DIO's sons, Giorno was nowhere to be seen despite DIO's blood in him. Araki hints that Giorno may be in Florida after all, though the reason he wasn't drawn to the priest is unknown. It would be a good occasion to make the character interact with Jolyne.

* BrokenBase: [[spoiler: The universe reset at the end of the part. Was it an emotional sendoff to parts 1 through 6 that acted as a satisfying conclusion to the long saga or was it a cop-out ending that made the wholesale slaughter of the protagonists pointless and felt like a contrived means of concluding the initial continuity.]]

* DieForOurShip: Anasui gets this from fans who prefer to ship Jolyne with other characters, although it's more of a {{Downplayed}} example, instead of being bashed for being in the way, he becomes a ButtMonkey in fanworks.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: [[BadassAdorable Foo Fighters]], thanks to her unique character concept, to the point that one of the most common complaint about ''[[VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureAllStarBattle All Star Battle]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureEyesOfHeaven Eyes of Heaven]]'' is that she doesn't have any major appearances.

* PeripheryDemographic: Being the only part with a female protagonist and featuring a mostly female cast, this part is naturally the most popular among the female portion of the fandom.

** The ending where everyone dies as the universe resets.

* DieForOurShip: Anasui gets this from fans who prefer to ship Jolyne with other characters.

** No matter how much Annasui wants to marry Jolyne, many fans will always prefer shipping her with Ermes.

* LesYay: Jolyne/Ermes which is the "[=BroJo=]" duo for this part. As seen in OneTrueThreesome below, Foo Fighters is also a popular shipping option for both characters.
