Diamond is Unbreakable


The front folded flap of the dust jacket of most volumes of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure contain a note to the reader, occasionally along with a picture of Hirohiko Araki himself. The following quotes and pictures are from the volumes of Diamond is Unbreakable.

Comments

Chapter Translation Original

Chapter 266 I just got back from seeing JFK. The theater was surprisingly packed, despite it being the first showing on a weekday. Its popularity seemed appropriate given how well done it was. 『JFK(ジェイエフケイ)』観てきました。平日の初回だったのに大混雑。人気にみあった力作でした。

Chapter 267 I'm returning to my hometown for Golden Week. I wanna say that I'll take it easy, but I'm gonna be thoroughly gathering material too!! GW(ゴールデンウイーク)は田舎に帰ります。ゆっくりしますといいたいけど、キッチリ取材もします！！

Chapter 268 Apparently, milk cartons are supposed to be put out on non-burnable garbage days. I guess there's all sorts of garbage, huh? 牛乳の紙パックは燃えないゴミの日に出すことになった。ゴミにも色々あるんだな

Chapter 269 The phone number on the sign of this soba restaurant near my workplace is wrong. They should fix it asap. 仕事場近くのそば屋さんは看板電話番号が間違っている。早く直した方がいいよ。

Chapter 270 Stepping away from Golden Week and taking a break, I went on a short trip to Tohoku. It completely refreshed my mind and body. G・W(ゴールデンウイーク)をはずして休みをとり、東北へ小旅行。身も心もすっかりリフレッシュした

Chapter Translation Original

Chapter 271 I accidentally hurt the inside of my mouth with the toothbrush handle while brushing my teeth. It hurts so much. 歯をみがいている最中に誤って柄で口の中を傷つけてしまった。これがメチャ痛い。

Chapter 272 Volume 27 will be out on the 10th. Everyone needs to get ready, set, and go to the bookstore! コミックスの27巻が10日発売になります。みんな、ヨーイドンで本屋さんへ走ろう

Chapter 273 Mr. Mitsuaki Iwagō's collection of animal photos and videos is fantastic. I absolutely recommend it to everyone. 岩合光昭さんの動物写真・映像集はとてもよい。みなさんにも是非おすすめします

Chapter 274 I read Mario Puzo's The Fourth K. It's a highly interesting book that I fully recommend! マリオ・プーゾの「4番目のＫ(ケー)」を読んだ。なかなかおもしろいお勧めの一冊！

Chapter 275 Wasps are showing up in the neighborhood quite a bit. It’s a bit unsettling, but I guess coexisting with them is just part of nature, right? 近所にスズメバチが出没している。怖いけど、共存していくのが自然の掟かなぁ…

Chapter 276 I finally attended another Tezuka and Akatsuka Awards party and ended up getting scolded for not coming more often... 久々に2大賞受賞パーティーに出席したらもっと頻繁にくるようにと怒られた…。

Chapter 277 I'm fairly confident in myself when swimming, but the other day, for whatever reason, I nearly drowned in a pool. At the end of the day, water is terrifying. 泳ぎには割と自信があるのだが先日なぜかプールで溺れかけた。やっぱり水は怖い

Chapter 278 I wouldn't say I'm a passionate fan of theirs, but the Giants' steady progress makes me happy. Keep up the great work! 熱烈なファンというわけではないのですが巨人の快進撃は嬉しい。このまま頑張れ

Chapter 279 Last week, I ended up spending a total of 6 hours waiting at the barbershop and other places. Let’s all be mindful of time. 先週は散髪屋さんその地もろもろで、合計6時間ま(・)ち(・)ですごした。皆時間を守ろう

Chapter 280 The newest volume, Volume 28, is on sale now! This is Part 3's concluding arc. And there's a hint towards Part 4 hidden within!! 最新コミックス28巻発売中！第3部の完結編です。第4部へのH(ヒント)も隠されてるゾ！！

Chapter Translation Original

Chapter 281 I took a break from painting my manuscript to return to my hometown. The salmon-eggs-and-rice bento I ate at Sendai Station was delicious. 原稿の合い間をぬって里帰り。仙台駅で食べた、鮭はらこ飯弁当が美味しかった。

Chapter 282 They were filming a movie at the apartment building where I work. It looked like they were having a hard time in the heat. 仕事場のあるマンションで、映画の撮影をやっていた。暑い中たいへんそうだった

Chapter 283 I bought this stapler-style nose hair trimmer, but it doesn't work at all. I was deceived by its appearance. ホッチキス型の鼻毛切りを買ったのだが、これが全然切れない。外見にダマされた

Chapter 284 Out of this year's summer vacation's movies, I think Patriot Games was the most enjoyable. 今年の夏休み映画の中では、「パトリオット・ゲーム」が1番おもしろかったなぁ。

Chapter 285 Lately I've become obsessed with cameras. I feel like I wanna go out and buy various lenses for them. 最近カメラに凝っています。レンズもいろいろ買いそうえていきたいと思ってます

Chapter 286 Production on the SFC JoJo game seems to be going well. I only saw a picture of the demo, but it looked quite good! SFC(スーパーファミコン)の『ジョジョ』制作は順調だそうです。デモ画面も見たけど中々よかったよ！

Chapter 287 The elementary schooler on TV who cycled across Japan was fascinating. I've also wanted to try that. 自転車で日本縦断を成しとげた小学生のTV(テレビ)がおもしろかった。僕もやりたかった。

Chapter 288 I've been staring intently at the full moon, but I just can't see the rabbit making rice cakes. 満月をまじまじと眺めてみたがどうしてもウサギがモチついてるように見えないぞ

Chapter 289 Lately, my favorite food has been zucchinis, which look like cucumbers. They taste amazing when grilled. 最近の好物はキュウリに似てるズッキーニ。これの焼いたのが抜群にうまいのだ。

Chapter 290 I often use Italian restaurants for meetings. It might just be my most favorite cuisine in the world. 打ちあわせはよくイタリアレストランを使う。世界で一番好きな料理かもしれない

Chapter Translation Original

Chapter 291 I had a meal with Mr. Hachiro Taku. He's thin, but has a hearty appetite. It felt like I caught a glimpse of his source of energy. 宅八郎さんと食事をした。やせているけどよく食べる。パワーの源を見た気がした

Chapter 292 Volume 29 is finally for sale on the 4th. At last, Part 4 begins! Hurry to the book store!! コミックス第29巻ついに4日に発売。いよいよ第4部が開始！本屋さんに急ごう！！

Chapter 293 The chair that's looked after me for 7 years has finally fallen apart. I had no choice but to buy a new one. 7年間、お世話になった椅子が空中分解。やむなく新しい椅子を買う羽目になった

Chapter 294 Every year when the weather gets colder, I start waking up with a stiff neck. It's started happening again recently, and it's pretty painful. 毎年さむくなるとよく寝ちがえるようになる。最近またやった。結構つらいのだ。

Chapter 295 I planned to go see the autumn leaves, but the bad weather kept delaying my trip. By the time I was ready to go, they had already fallen. 紅葉を見に行こうと思ったが、天気が悪いので延び延びにしてたら散ってしまった

Chapter 296 It seems that when I sent someone a Shichi-Go-San congratulatory telegram, it came out as Hichi-Go-San. I'm just hearing about this now. 七五三の祝電を打つ時、ヒチ・ゴ・サンになってしまうそうだ。初めて知りました

Chapter 297 I totally forgot my trunks in the pool locker room, but I got too embarrassed to go retrieve them. プールの更衣室に海パンを忘れてしまったが、はずかしくて取りにいけないでいる

Chapter 298 I often use Italian restaurants for preparatory meetings. Garlic and olive oil are a powerful duo!! 打合せによくイタリア料理店を使う。ガーリック&オリーブ油でパワー倍増だぜ！！

Chapter 299 Thank you for supporting me this past year. Please continue to do so in the future. 今年1年応援どうもありがとうございました。来年からもよろしくお願いします。

Chapter 300 Happy new year. Please enjoy this year. Also look forward to enjoying Volume 30, which releases on the 7th. 明けましておめでとう。今年もよろしく。7日発売のJC(コミックス)30巻もあわせてヨロシク

Chapter 305 The day I went home for the first time in a long time, the bullet train that had been stopped by the heavy snow started moving again from my station. Lucky me! 久々の帰省をする日、大雪でとまってた新幹線が私の乗る号から動きだした。幸運(ラッキー)

Chapter 306 I took a break from my manuscripts to paint an illustration for the Jump Novel releasing on March 17th. Please be sure to read that as well. 原稿の合間をぬって3月17日売のJN(ジャンプノベル)の挿絵をかいた。そっちも是非読んで下さい

Chapter Translation Original

Chapter 311 Koseki hasn't been willing to screw around with me as much lately. I think it's because of how the schedule is right now, but still, it's rather rude of him. 最近、こせき先生が一緒に遊んでくれない。S(スケジュール)の都合だと思うけど、少し冷たいゾ

Chapter 418 It could be because the manuscript paper is white, but when it gets warm, bugs show up and writhe on the paper. That's so bug-like of them. 原稿用紙が白いからか暖かくなると紙の上でもだえる虫が出てくる。何て虫なんだろう

Chapter 419 The Artist Formerly Known as Prince is holding a concert here for the first time in a while. I thought I could pass on it to be cheap, but I'm definitely going. 久々(ひささびさ)[h]に元プリンスのコンサートが来る。円高なんで来ないかと思ってた必ず行きますよ

When I was growing up…

One day, my mother came down with a cold and asked me to help her.
She said, "Would you mind going to the neighborhood doctor to get my medicine?"
I was waiting in the reception area when the doctor came out and said, "All right, Araki-kun! Roll up your sleeve—it's time for your shot."
"What?!" I shouted. "I'm not here for me!"
"Just kidding," he said.
I'd been terrified, but I also thought it was a hilarious trick. Looking back, I think that experience led me to become a manga creator.

I listen to a lot of music and that sometimes has an unfortunate side effect: a melody getting stuck in my head. The most serious case was a song called "A Man and a Woman," with its "da-ba-da-ba-da" repeating relentlessly for three days straight. I was in school at the time and I remember thinking, "I can't study like this!"
I also went through a period when I would hear Kiyoko Suizenji's "365 Steps March" every time I started walking, in a Pavlovian sort of response that had me entirely at its mercy.

I've always thought of the Academy Awards as prestigious, but their selections are not always particularly entertaining movies. When Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven won Best Picture, I was as happy as if it were my own movie—so happy, in fact, that I couldn't sleep.

The destruction of the environment is a topic that deeply weighs on my mind. A while ago I visited the town where I grew up and discovered that a mountain I remembered from my childhood had been completely erased—bulldozed away to clear room to develop a residential area.

Workplace Nature Watch, Part 1
The most common bug we see in the studio is the ladybug. It gets through the screen door like it's nothing. It seems like it flies to the door, then climbs up over it somehow. I checked the top of the door, and sure enough, there's a 3mm gap right at the top of the frame. That must be how they get in.

They don't sting or anything, so whenever we see them we just shoo them back outside. But then they always find their way back in.

仕事場のまわり自然観察記その①
仕事場に侵入してくる虫NO.1はテントウムシだ。この虫、網戸をものともしない。テントウ虫って飛んで来て物にとまったら、上に向かって登っていくらしい。網戸にとまったら「さん」のところを上に登っていく。
…で、「さん」の上には３ミリぐらいのスキ間がちょこっとあって、そこから入ってくるのだ。
害虫ではないので、つかまえて外に出すと、またそいつが入ってくる。

Workplace Observation Diary, Part 2
Out on the balcony, we have a small flower garden, and all these stray cats keep coming by to poop in it. We had to keep telling them, "Get the hell out!" We decided to use some herbicides in the garden so the cats would go away, but just when I was sprinkling the herbicides, the lady who lives nearby said, "You shouldn't use herbicide, it'll drive away all the cats!" How did you know that was happening? The balcony is on the second floor! I thought to myself, "Is she some kind of crazy cat lady who can talk to cats?" That's how horrified I was when she said that.

ベランダにちょっとした花壇があるのだが、そこにネコがうんこをしていく。てめーコラ！っつーわけで、ネコは除草剤が嫌いという噂なんで、花壇にまいたら、突然、近所のオバさんがやって来て、「ネコがかわいそーだから除草剤まかないでくださいね」。なんで、人ん家のこと知ってるんだ？　ベランダは２階だぞ。「ネコとお話できるネコオババか？」言われた時ろ、ゾッとした。

When it comes to JoJo, I frequently receive comments that the "enemies" in Part 4 are weak. I think my response to this criticism is quite clear from the work itself, but since I've heard the same complaint from the editorial staff, I'll answer it explicitly: I constructed Part 4 around the theme of mental and emotional weakness. The Stands were created by exaggerating the viewpoints of characters consumed by their own flaws. (To be continued in Volume 46.)

ジョジョに対して、よくいただく意見に第4部になって『“敵”が弱くなった』というのがある。「答え」は作品の中にあると思って、普通はあまり意見に対し、答えたりしないのであるが、編集部の中からもこういう意見がたまに来るので、しかたなく答えると第4部は「人の心の弱さ」をテーマに描いている。『心の弱い部分』が追い詰められたり、ある方向から見ると『恐ろしさになる』ということをスタンドにしているのだ。（46巻につづく）

I was thinking about how strong enemies show up in manga. After them, an even stronger enemy shows up, and after them, an even stronger one... so what happens at the very end? It's like thinking about the edges of the universe. Once you look at the world around you, you realize that being a "strong" person means not doing bad things.
An enemy who does bad things is a person who has a spiritual weakness, and what's truly scary is when someone takes that weakness and uses it to lash out at others.
”
“

ちょこっと考えてると、マンガの中に強い敵が出て来る。その次にそれよりも強い敵が出てくる。その次はそれよりも強い。…となると最後はいったいどうなっちゃうわけですか？　宇宙のハテを考えているみたいになる。それと世の中を見渡してみると本当に『強い』人っていうのは悪い事はしない事に気付く。

「悪い事をする敵」というものは「心に弱さ」を持った人であり、真に怖いのは弱さを攻撃に変えた者なのだ。

Apparently, they don't use the letter J in Italy, except in foreign or obsolete words. That means the name "JoJo" doesn't exist, and would be pronounced something like "yoyo". So, for Part 5, which begins on page 71 of this volume, I stayed faithful to the Italian language and made the main character's name "GioGio." As a side note, it seems they don't have an "H" sound either, so "Hirohiko" would become "Iroiko." Like, who is that?
”
“

イタリアでは「J」という文字はないらしく、外来語とか古語にしか用いられないんだそうである。

だから「JOJO」という名前などなくなってしまい、発音も「ヨォヨォ」というそうで、この巻の71ページから始まる第５部の主人公は「GIOGIO」とイタリア語に忠実に表記することにしたのです。ちなみに「H」という発音もないらしく、「飛呂彦」は「イロイコ」と「誰だ？それ」って感じに呼ばれてしまったりもするのです。
