Events
The novel and the events that occur within it are considered by fans to be bizarre even by the Jojo series' standards. What is currently known to happen from translations is as follows:
 * Jorge Joestar is not killed by a zombie. However, zombies run amok during his and Lisa Lisa's wedding.
 * Stands exist but many are named after films and television series rather than bands, musicians or songs.
 * Made In Heaven has reset the universe 36 times.
 * In all of them, the basic events of Battle Tendency happen, including Kars achieving his Ultimate form and being expelled from Earth. Consequently, Kars' new immortality allowed him to survive the resets and thus there are at least 36 different versions of Kars residing on planet Mars; they are apparently the 36 souls of sinners that DIO required for his plan to reach Heaven.
 * Kars is no longer evil, and now holds respect for humanity's bravery and ambition. He is also now aware of the concept of Stands.
 * The DIO of Part 3 was not the real Dio Brando.
 * Rohan Kishibe is so engrossed in his work that he survives the universal resets unscathed, thus he does not notice Made In Heaven's actions and is immune to them.
 * Morioh Town suddenly sprouts legs from its foundations and splits from the mainland, walking the earth.
 * Passione's island headquarters begins moving as well, and encounters the roving Morioh Town.
 * The Dio Brando of Part 1 becomes the Ultimate Life Form as well. The Holy Corpse of Part 7 is in fact Dio Brando's remains. Dio also possesses a Stand called "The Passion" which resembles Jesus Christ.
 * Jonathan Joestar returns to life and fuses with the Holy Corpse.
 * One version of Giorno Giovanna is now Diavolo's alternate personality. Doppio is instead a separate entity with his own Stand capable of transforming objects into telephones.
 * Gold Experience Requiem protected the Giorno of Part 5 from the universal resets.
 * Diavolo somehow was able to use King Crimson to avoid his torturous fate at Gold Experience Requiem's hands so that only the Diavolo connected with Vinegar Doppio would suffer.
 * Kars is able to convince Killer Queen to abandon Yoshikage Kira and join up with him instead.
 * Kars repeatedly uses Killer Queen's Bites The Dust ability to reverse time until he reaches the first universal reset, otherwise known as the Steel Ball Run universe.
 * Funny Valentine has a son named Funnier Valentine, who in turn has a son called The Funniest Valentine. Funnier has a Stand called "Rear Window" which opens windows through space, allowing Funnier to travel through them. Funniest has the original D4C.
 * One version of Funny Valentine has a Stand called "Singing In The Rain" which grants him the power of flight.

Trivia

 * "Jorge" is the Portuguese and Spanish transliteration of the name "George". It is, however, pronounced "Jyorji" in Portuguese and "Hor-hey" in Spanish and not like the name "George".
