Author's Note

“

The "-lion" part of the title "JoJolion" is a suffix that, to my understanding, means "blessed one," "gospel," or "commemorative seal." It's a word from ancient Greek or something like that. I combined it with "JoJo" in order to signify the existence of the protagonist "Josuke" in this world. There's also "Pygmalion," which is the name of a tragic king from a Greek myth and the Japanese animation "Evangelion," but I'm not sure if there's any connection.
