Feng Shui
Feng Shui (風水, Fūsui) is a mysterious force featured in Stone Ocean defined as a "path that needs to be taken". In other words, it employs "lucky" and "unlucky spots".
The "lucky spots" are certain areas that are protected from misfortune. Even if a force that is supposed to harm an individual comes directly towards them, the individual in question wouldn't be harmed as long as they're in a safe zone. Such an example would be Kenzou, before developing Dragon's Dream, having survived a building collapse from inside; he unknowingly stood in a safe zone, and the debris ended up crashing down around him.[1] Another example is when Foo Fighters tried shooting Kenzou, but the bullets seemed to go around him.[2] Inversely, the "unlucky spots" define certain areas where individuals who step in one will face misfortune no matter the circumstances.
Calamity
Calamity (厄災, Yakusai) is a concept featured in JoJolion. It is an unavoidable, negative force of energy defined as a series of bad things that are bound to happen to someone, even if they haven't made any mistakes.[3] Calamities can bring out grievous misfortunes, whether unnatural or not. For instance, rain drops piercing Josuke and giving him near-lethal wounds[4] or a falling leaf slicing off Joshu's fingers.[5]
The only known force capable of bypassing the laws of calamity are things that transcend logic itself, such as Spin and Go Beyond.[6]
The Mechanism
The Mechanism is a concept featured in The JOJOLands. The Mechanism is a universal constant akin to an ecosystem that is a general principle of the world that can only be temporarily destroyed. Jodio believes that a mechanism has predestined people to win against their enemies and make rich, with his specifically leading him to become filthy rich. Jodio also believes however that there is some kind of apex or pinnacle of mechanisms, despite his mechanism not having revealed its form and shape to him yet.
