/jojo/ - cuck/co/ Raiding General - Weza Ripoto Edition

Might be, I still felt kind of disappointed

We got Prussian Stroheim though, what more could you ask for

But that's what makes it all so intriguing, every Stand, even the protagonists', has got some irredeemable flaw that can be exploited to defeat it. GER is the only one that doesn't have a clear weak point, imo it's more about how Giorno can't really control it (and if we go by the games' rules, GER is only temporary).

Names don't really mean much in the alternate universe, Jolyne's called Irene but she's pretty much the (almost) same character despite being another person.

Scratch that, there's people who haven't realized that Joshuu is OkuyasuAU and that the Nijimura maid is JotaroAU

Actually, has anyone compiled a list of alternate universe characters and their original ones?

Prussian Stroheim? Who? And the AU characters to original characters ain't exactly one to one. Like you said, the Nijimura Maid is Jotaro..but so does Yoshikage Kira.

what a time to be aliveā€¦

Seconding.

Yeah, I know. It's a conflict in my head about wanting unstoppable badasses for heroes versus having a more compelling story. I don't like how the main JoJo got blue-balled at the ending two parts in a row, though.


Wut? Because she was a female party member? Hot Pants shares more with Dire, Lisa Lisa, and Stroheim than Erina.
How is Lucy not a dedicated wife who does her best to help and protect her husband, and is strong in her conviction even in his absence? I get that she has more to do, and that might throw people off, but there's very little room to argue she is anybody except for Erina.

While typing out a bit for Rina, I realized that her name is a very strong statement of authorial intent that she is related to Erina. I assume she gets fleshed out in Part 8 and I just haven't read it yet. Let me hypothesize then that Lucy = Erina Pendelton and Rina = Erina Joestar.

I love how japanese Josuke looks every time he gets exasperated or just reacting to shit around him

Dis guy

I think it's pretty great that the hero gets to die or lose at the very end but his legacy will keep on living.

Jotaro has several counterparts in part 8. Kira is the one who looks the most like him and is the son of Holly, Kyu has his trademark hat and is the daughter of Holly, while Josefumi has the Kujo name.

I don't know..Josefumi's more Josuke than Jotaro. Then again, so does Norisuke.

Imagine if you will
