When everything's over, all that will remain...are dreams and memories. That's all. (全てが終わってその後に残るものは…夢と……想い出だけだ それだけだ)
Welcome to my profile page! Here I talk about myself and my passions, as well as my history with JoJo. I started my JoJourney sometime in 2019, admittedly per recommendation by PewDiePie. I don't remember exactly when, but it was sometime during the summer. It's been roughly 5 years since then. Ever since I've been fascinated by the masterpiece that is JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, and the sheer amount of content that comes with being 32 years late to a series. 36 Souls

About meMemories
I wouldn't want to have every person that visits my page to know my full address, my SSID or the numbers on my credit card, so I'll be keeping it fairly concise and secret here.
Basically I've been into JoJo for a couple of years, but didn't really discover the wiki fully until about 3 year(s) ago. I had encountered it before of course, but had a bad experience since the first time I went on the wiki I accidentally spoiled myself on Jotaro's death. Basically learnt to always be careful when browsing character wiki's, they might reappear later. Heaven
Ever since I started JoJo I've been addicted to rock and pop, and I've gotten A LOT of music recommendations from Araki through his recomendations.
Music
I'm currently into bands/artists like Jamiroquai, Deep Purple, Sticky Fingers, Yes, Soul'd out and Prince.Saint
As I mentioned, I really discovered music thanks to Araki, and fell in love. Since then listening to music has become one of my biggest hobbies, and I often do it while working on something (even right now as I'm writing this I'm listening to King Of Dreams by Deep Purple)
Other Anime/Shows
Outside of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, I've watched/read quite a few anime/manga. The ones that stick out to me the most are:
Personally, I'd say I prefer manga over anime in most instances, especially for more complicated, less action-packed series like Death Note. Therefore, I typically enjoy watching the anime for the opposite, such as Demon Slayer. That being said, some manga are simply incredible (and way ahead of the anime), like in the instance of One Punch Man. Despite my preferences, I have a deep appreciation for both manga and anime, unless one of the mediums is notoriously bad.
I'm also a bit of a gaming nerd, having spent ungodly amounts of time playing Terraria, Smash Ultimate and Brawl Stars (I've done more, but these are easily my top 3 most played). I've loved Plants vs Zombies since childhood, and I'm looking forward to ASBR's release as my first JoJo game!

Although hard to follow to begin with, Steel Ball Run picks up huge towards the second half of the Part. Diego is the Dio I never knew I wanted, and his AU counterpart is also endearing. Scary Monsters may just be my favourite JoJo Stand ever, and THE WORLD call back is unbelievably epic; I can't wait for anime-onlies to feast their eyes on its reveal. Spin is a bit BS for my liking, but it's a cool alternative to Ripple (although I don't know if I can confidently say better). Funny Valentine is a really great villain, and D4C is beyond awesome, but I feel like the Part would've benefited from him not being the main villain. He could've easily been less "evil" and more true to his ideals. His final attempt at defeating Johnny was straight-up pathetic, and it sucks that his character just simply couldn't overcome that urge. Speaking of Johnny... he's an asshole. He comes into the Part wanting to walk, and leaves being able to walk... while also having killed many racers, spectators, the US President and his short-lived best friend. Gyro is overly cryptic for my liking, but he's definitely not dislikable, and overall a chill character with epic cowboy drip. Despite its flaws, this is my favourite Part for how incredibly it does what it manages to do well (that's vague, but I wanna keep this desc short).

Stardust Crusaders is when JoJo really takes off, introducing the bizarre phenomena of Stands, and having a whopping 48 episodes! Jotaro is truly a badass protagonist – without being cringe like other anime characters try to be – and the whole group dynamic of the Crusaders feels real. The manga is especially exciting to read, as it's not held back by pacing issues, and the whole Around the World in Eighty Days concept is something I would love to see in JoJo again. This Part still holds up against the others to this day, and will forever have one of my favourite final battles in any work of fiction.

This Part brings jarring changes to the anime adaptation and takes a while to get used to, but once I finished it, I felt like I had just witnessed peak fiction. Looking back, DiU is not as good as I recall, and I feel like Killer Queen had more potential, being a very powerful set of Stands when used correctly. Ultimately however, there's a nice "slice of life" feel to the story, mixed with lots of action and mystery. It's interesting to see the town of Morioh be revisited so many times with stories like TSKR, CDDH and JoJolion, and I'm all for it.

Introducing the loveable Joseph Joestar and god-like Pillar Men, this Part is a wild ride and is ultimately what permanently hooked me into this series. Joseph's differentiation from Jonathan is clear, and makes it clear that every JoJo Part truly has its own, unique story to tell. While not perfect, the basic idea of its story is compelling and expands on both Ripple and Vampirism. It feels like this Part alone has the most potential for insane lore, and I would personally love for Araki to revisit the Ripple Clan and Pillar Men, especially Kars and Esidisi.

This Part has some of the best character arcs in the series, but also lots of missed potential that would've truly made it incredible. I strongly dislike how Requiem turned out, and although King Crimson has been explained by fans hundreds of times, it still feels like some of the stuff it does are allowed to happen for convenience (e.g. taking Trish's from the elevator by skipping over his own action). Bucciarati is a work of art, and Abbacchio's arc is beautiful. All in all, a Part with many confusing directions, but also Golden moments.

This is definitely something that is appreciated much more the further you get into the series, and for only 5 volumes/9 episodes, it is a great introduction to the series. The rivalry between Jonathan and Dio is a great story in of itself, and it would be interesting if Araki every decided to rewrite this Part, adding more depth to their relationship. Also, Jonathan is – as Araki intended – a great character to define the core 'good' in future descendants of the Joestar bloodline. His death leaves a big impact on the viewer, and ultimately hooks them for what's in store in future Parts.

From what I've seen in the anime so far, I'm quite invested in Jotaro's character regrets and growth as a father to Jolyne. Hopefully Araki actually did something with it. Made in Heaven's universe reset does sound like an interesting conclusion to the original JoJo universe, and I look forward to seeing how it's handled. Especially with the decision that Jotaro has to make.

Not much to say yet other than Wonder of U seeming like an amazing concept, with how it manipulates fate for Calamity.
Little is known about the upcoming Part 9, which was announced in the author's note of the September 2021 issue of Ultra Jump.
These refer to overall openings, rather than strictly opening themes.
Also, instead of choosing my favourites here, I've ranked them in order of best to worst (top to bottom).
If it isn't obvious, I'm a sucker for the 3D openings.
