TranslationTranscript
“
JoJo is an ode to life and a celebration of humanity. Without help from machines or technology, the main characters face danger with their bodies as their only weapon. Indeed, I hold the opinion that science doesn't necessarily make humans any happier.
I also detested mathematics and physics when I was in school (and I don't blame my younger self).

“
ＪＯＪＯは、「生命賛歌」というか、「人間って、すばらしいなあ」ということをテーマにかいています。主人公にも、機械やテクノロジーにたよらずに、自分の肉体を使って、危機をきりぬけていくというこだわりが、あります。どうも自分には、理科系は、人間をかならずしも幸せには、していないなという意見が、あるからです。
学生時代は、数学と物理は、きらいだったし（うらんじゃいないけど）。
