Otaku Steph

Lock in, it’s time for the end 😌🤝

Disco Heaven

ITS TIMEE OMG, WE HAVE ACHIEVED HEAVEN. can't believe stone ocean has been over for a couple years now, easily one of the most shocking endings to any story I've ever read🥲🥲 ill never forgive araki for this but man did he do such a good job at wrapping up his masterpiece that is the original jjba universe ❤️

Howler

Yeah it’s time for weather report to come back

Wonder Of You

well this is the end of the og universe. the SBR universe is seperate and follows the new joestar bloodline (7-9). so Johnny is our First Joestar all over again with so many callbacks but so many new differences. can't wait for you to witness the journey of our alternate Jojo's and Villains as a manga reader

Disco Heaven

also i love how much jolyne truly brings out her inner Jonathan and faces pucci even though she knows shes going to die, and all to save someone she cares about

Otaku Steph

THANK YOUU FOR WATCHING AND SUPPORTING ICY 🥹 so sad it’s over SIGGGHH

Fernando Aguja

Jojo's bizarre adventures become the normal JoJo adventures. Stone Ocean is incredible, because it takes all the previous elements and reinterprets them, giving you an ending that, despite its rawness and its bittersweet nature, is beautiful, unsurpassable. To wrap up, I'd like to explain why I consider this ending to be an extremely happy and hopeful one. extremely happy and hopeful: the ending of Stone Ocean is a happy ending, a very, very happy ending. happy ending. First of all, we have what is perhaps the most bittersweet aspect: the characters we grew fond of and saw mature die. However, their souls were reincarnated and were able to lead happier lives. Yes, technically, Irene Technically, she's not the Jolyne we spent so much time with, but her spirit is the same. same. Her mature soul reincarnated along with everyone else's, and she was able to get along better with her father and have a better life. The same goes for everyone. No longer bound by fate and having matured, they were able to be much happier. And that's where the second point comes in. In this new world, destiny no longer exists. Since Pucci accelerated fate so that it would be fulfilled and for everyone to see, fulfilled and for everyone to see, when he dies and cancels Made in Heaven, people are no longer obliged to follow that destiny; they are simply free. It is the absolute defeat of Pucci and Dio, the victory of free will and justice over destiny. Or, as I like to put it, justice has completely destroyed destiny. In other words, it is Jolene's definitive victory over Pucci and the Joestars' victory over Dio. Jolyne's definitive victory over Pucci and the Joestars' victory over Dio. That means that the Joestar curse is finally over. Since history has been changed and Dio never had anyone to follow in his footsteps to fulfill the Heaven's plan, all his remnants would have been easily defeated. And now, fulfill Heaven's plan, all his vestiges would have been easily defeated. And now Irene, the Joestars, and everyone else are free to do whatever they want with their lives. They are free to decide. That's why the ending is simply heartbreaking for everything that Jojo represents, as the Joestars have always been compelled to fight for justice, as they were destined to battle against evil enemies. But now that is over. evil enemies. But now that is over. Now, since they are not destined for anything because destiny no longer exists, they are free. Knowing all this and seeing the final scene, where everyone continues on their way in a car toward the horizon, and on the final page, they are all shown, implying that their spirits are still there, that this free world has been created thanks to everyone's justice, one can only say, what more can be said? It's a truly moving and profound experience. horizon, and on the final page, they are all shown, implying that their spirits are still there, that this free world has been created thanks to the justice of all, one can only say, what a wonderful world. And what a wonderful world.

Now you get to wait for stone ocean like the rest of us >:3

Diar Omar

cant wait for you to react to SBR

Robert Collard

The world going in fast forward Kishibe Rohan “Heavens Door have me move as fast as time so I can meet my deadlines” Also Jolyne showing that she is a descendant of Johnathan through and through: getting into a fight knowing she would lose in order to save Emporio.

bazita

You finally did it—you finished Stone Ocean, congrats! I loved how in your reactions you kept comparing Jolyne to Jonathan, and her final stand against Pucci really proves it. Like Jonathan said early on, a true gentleman is willing to fight even knowing he’ll lose. About the ending, remember what Foo Fighters told Jolyne? That getting their disc back would just create another Foo Fighters, not the same one. That’s basically what happens to the whole cast. It’s such a perfect bittersweet ending—Emporio defeats Pucci, but loses everyone. And in the end, he meets people with the same faces and souls as his friends… but none of the memories they shared.

Petey Poo

Right on time. I've been suffering withdrawals from Jojos these last few hours.

Bilaavl_Singh

Congratulations Steph! Can't believe you're already caught up now. It's been awesome watching your reactions, really looking forward to your Steel Ball Run journey!

ffp

10:41 STEPH DON'T BE RUDE WITH MY BABY ERMES LMAO Also, 41:30. The only scream of sheer terror this man has shouted, ever. What an image. Jolyne has that joestar blood running in her veins for sure, some parallels with our beloved gentle giant: https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2F1obmhd3h0f0g1.jpeg What a ride! i never fully re-watch jojo's alongside a creator, only the hype moments but i'd be lying if i say that these haven't been the best reactions to this series ever! Thus spoke Kishibe Rohan is one of the spin offs that you can watch now.

Brie&Apples

What I love most about this fight is how Jotaro had the opportunity to stop Pucchi, but his love for Jolyne made it impossible. The same sense of justice and love that allowed the Joestars to make it as far as they did is what ultimately lead to their deaths, yet I don't think any of them would regret a single action they took.

Robert Collard

Also, when the end credits first aired: Newcomers: what a serene scene of the ocean with this song playing in the background Those in the know about Stone Ocean: Oh dear god no.

Disco Heaven

fun fact the way jotaro dies here is the same way he dies in the premonition of the oingo boingo episodes

WerruzoSama888

I always found it touching that Jonathan's story began because his mother died protecting him. And his lineage would go on because he insisted that Erina do the same for a child that wasn't even theirs. And at the climax of this entire bloodline's story, the ending would be the same. Jolyne laying down her life for a child. As heartbreaking as the end of this story is, the Joestars thankfully get their final reward for all the selfless sacrifice. A world where they no longer need to sacrifice themselves for the greater good. I really hope you enjoyed this story.

Nile McKenna

Oh I actually love what you mentioned of hope being a passing of the torch of sorts. Describing it as the hope shifting from jotaro to Jolyne, then to emporio is such an excellent way to show the viewer how quickly she’s evolved.

Gyro_GoGo_Zeppeli

Weather Report's lore in the previous variation is actually covered in clouds and has nothing. But since he has regained himself, the clouds are now gone and shows Perla. :) The best part of this OP is Jolyne, carrying the will of the Joestars, is fighting Pucci in the background of Phantom Blood deteriorating to the universe, as they descend down in a spin, like Jonathan and Dio in the OP of Phantom Blood!

Edmund

does anyone else really love the main character dying trope?

Darkgust27

Did you notice that Jotaro died the same way Ooingo had predicted? It seemed that Jotaro's fate was sealed from the moment Ooingo's powers were used and has shown Jotaro's fate. From that moment forwards, each time Jotaro seemingly died he died the same way. In part 4 when Kira used Bite the Dust, an explosion appeared and also split Jotaro's face in half. Now he also died the same way. He cannot escape that fate. RIP. Also, the ending is extremely depressing when you realize our OGs are forever gone. Their souls are gone. Whatever we have here are people with similar lives, but different names and different souls. What a run this was. :')

Owen Bryant-Nelson

Hey Steph! I’ve been rewatching jojos along side of you these last months and I’ve loved this journey you have shared with us! It’s been a very peaceful time in my life and I’m glad you were able to be part of it! Can’t wait for STEEL BALL RUN!!!

WerruzoSama888

I like to think of the rain at the end as a blessing from Foo Fighters. It's a shame the circumstances of the new universe wouldn't bring about their existence but that was the point of her last moments. She got to live life, be herself and die on her own terms. She was unique and she was proud of that. She wouldn't truly be herself in any other context and she was happy to have been herself for whatever short time that was.

Gyro_GoGo_Zeppeli

WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD! The irony about Pucci's idea of heaven being a place where people can prepare for the future but he himself cannot come to terms with the fact that he can't face his own future. He deliberately stopped in Green Dolphin St., thereby stopping MiH's process from completing, just because he couldn't accept that Emporio got away from him in Cape Canaveral and Emporio's destiny would be to stop him. He couldn't prepare and accept that Emporio will one day be there to dispense justice, and have that threat looming over his own universe. And not just really Emporio, his whole life was just him fearing the worst and running away from it, Weather and Perla, instead of confronting both people, he went in a roundabout way and hired terrible people to break them up and things got worse. Weather in the end is something that loops back to him and hits him hard and causes everything he worked for to be for nothing. The beauty of the ending is shown with Pucci's alternate world, in his world, Jolyne and the others who died didn't get to carry on, and they've been replaced with copies that look like them but like really skewed versions, because their souls are not there. Cut to the reset after Emporio beats Pucci. The names are different, their clothes are different but despite all these they feel like the Jo-crew we've come to know and love, like F.F. said, a soul is unique and defines you, and to fully symbolize that their souls are back, it shows the Joestar birthmark. What a ride it's been watching you go through Araki's bizarre adventure work! And there's more to go!

Gyro_GoGo_Zeppeli

I mean not really considering that the point of Boingo's book is that it tells the NEAR future, and tell it, it did, which is in various comedic outcomes that we see in Part 3, "Jotaro's" face DID blow up, Jotaro (in the pages of the Boingo book) did get shot in the head 3 times. It's a fun joke but it never really predicted Jotaro would die like that.

Jay rellim

Pucci explaining how everyone will know their fate/future gives me chills bc it's also him talking about his trauma. Instead of fighting past what happened with him, perla, and weather, he assumes the best outcome was just simply being aware of it in advanced, so he could have time to come to terms with it :')

Jayden

Thanks so much for the series Steph glad I could re-experience this story again :) now I get to go to the jojo caravan in april and get some steel ball run merch😌 Also very unfortunately they've done the release schedule of steel ball run even WORSE than stone ocean's release so you will get to experience the jojo release schedule pain 😭

Jay rellim

To this day, we dont know if this was DIO's true purpose or if this is Pucci's interpretation of it due to his trauma and DIO manipulating him. after all, a side effect of this is killing his enemies during the time acceleration would remove them from the future world. Some think that's what DIO wanted, to basically remove the joestar bloodline from existence in the future world (and thus removing his 'enemies' forever), and humanity learning their fate is a sort of unintended consequence. While pucci has it almost reversed, he's focused on humanity learning their fate (due to his trauma) and removing his enemies from the new universe is sort of a necessity versus the true goal. Same power, same consequences, different perspectives on what is the actual goal.

Nile McKenna

Sorry for the spelling mistakes and possible over excitement for something maybe simple. Im very tired😭

Gyro_GoGo_Zeppeli

As for your question, there's not really more of the Part 6 crew sadly. I think the only spin-off that Araki did with Jolyne was Fly High with GUCCI which is a very, very, non canon spin-off where it just uses the JoJo characters for a short GUCCI collaboration story, like Bruno and Abbachio shows up as govt. agents etc. With Steel Ball Run, all I will say is, it's not meant to be the universe that Emporio ends up in at the end. Steel Ball Run is a new universe that's meant to start a new story unrelated to the previous 1-6.

Kiroo.one

So sad it finally ended, very nice reactions! i really like how u pay attention to things, looking forward for more reactions!!!

Kaiser Roll

I never read it as pucci thinking he's above everyone, he genuinely thought it was what was best for humanity. And some of those feelings, whether he consciously realized it or not, comes from him getting his sister killed. If he had of been born with the recollection of future events, then I guess in his mind he would have been able to emotionally prepare himself for her death.

Chris🤑🇲🇽

Every time I hear "Distant Dreamer" I cry bcs of Stone Ocean

Petey Poo

Anakiss and Irene are an incredible looking couple. They look so fashionable with their new hairstyles.

Oscar Wright

Chef's kiss ending, no notes.

ColorColours

Stone Ocean is truly a tragically beautiful conclusion to the original Jojo's story. The Joestars are no longer tethered to fate and cursed to save the world, but Emporio is the only person from the original universe. He carries the weight of grief and remembering all that transpired. He's the only one that remembers their sacrifice. It is happiness tinged with grief as he does meet their alternate universe counterparts, but he had to lose them all first. Stone Ocean often gets a bad rap, for whatever reason, but it's honestly one of my favorite parts. The Steel Ball Run universe is entirely separate from the original Jojo's story. It isn't this new universe that Emporio ends up in after defeating Pucci. Can't wait to see your reaction to Episode 1 of SBR though.

CitadelBrulee

Hmm, I don't think I like the ending. It feels too much like Pucci won, since he eliminated the original Jolyne, Jotaro, Ermes, Anasui, Weather, and F.F.

Kitex

Wow the end of a journey, it’s almost been a year since I discovered your channel and I’m thankful to have been able to rewatch this bizarre adventure along side you. Can’t wait for the steel ball run reactions and everything else to come!

gagarin

The last episodes of Stone Ocean are definitely pretty heavy, a lot of things. First of all, Jotaro putting his daughter over basically the fate of the universe. We really never see Jotaro panic at all, not even when he was getting dissolved by rat stand venom, so seeing him scream for his daughter means a lot. He's also probably got PTSD from time-stop knives from fighting Dio already. And of course Anasui got donut'd, Ermes got her damn arms cut off, and Jotaro got his face split like Thoth predicted back in part 3. And Pucci seems to finally win. When he's chasing Emporio down the prison he once again repeats the same questions he's been asking since he was a child, but now he can finally answer them. People will now know why they meet, when they'll die, why they live over others. That is, of course, until Emporio remembers he read something in a book once and uses Weather Report to obliterate Pucci. And then the new universe! Ermes is now Elvis(I think it's that or Eldis), Anasui is Anakiss and he's basically engaged to Jolyne who is now Irene. But because MiH was undone, they have basically their old souls, unlike alternate Jolyne and Qtaro that Emporio sees in the prison. But it's still bittersweet because they all have happier lives but also are different people and don't remember Emporio. And of course Jolyne is now Irene, but she still cares for Emporio the same. She, without a second thought, died so Emporio could live, and Irene seems to immediately take care of him like she always did. It's so sweet to see her immediately take him in and give him her sweater so he doesn't get cold, he's her baby now(we also don't know what happened to Emporio's mom in this universe). Distant Dreamer always hits crazy in that scene and "My name is Emporio" is heartbreaking. Only brightside to Emporio's sad story is that he could probably tell Jotaro and him knowing so much about stands and Dio and the Joestars would probably convince Jotaro that it did actually happen. Anyway you held it together a lot better than I did watching these episodes, Steel Ball Run episode 1 is peak but also it's joever because they profoundly messed up the rest of the release.

ItsYeboi

i wish pucci didnt win i wanted them to kill pucci for a happy ending

ItsYeboi

When are you going to react to SBR

Ethan J Soto

You have been my favorite Jojo reactor by far!! Just a heads up, Steel Ball Run ep 1 seems to be all we're getting until September this year. Netflix is ruining the release schedule - just like they did with Stone Ocean!

lola

this is such a bittersweet finale. the end of the jojo journey in more ways than one. ive looked forward to your jojo posts for so long steph (even tho ik sbr will be coming soon in the future) so it’s aww to watch. the breaking of the jojo curse, coupled with the roundabout ending really hits hard. i can’t imagine being emporio, being the only one to know of the horrors of the past 💔 it’s also sort of heartbreaking to think that everyone got their fate rewarded in the end apart from ff 😞 they were a wonderful blip of intelligence, a fluke amongst universes. although i suppose it wouldn’t be the same without the memories of jolyne, which only exist within emporio 💔

Gabriel Macedo

LONG COMMENT(as always) I'm ngl kind of emotional about this. I've been here since episode 2 or 3 from part 1. I'm genuinely surprised by how well you absorbed the heaven plan. A lot, and i mean A LOT of people don't understand how it works without it being explained. Dio and Pucci were terrified of fate. They lived their whole life trying to mitigate the inevitable. Trying to understand why were they fated to live such bizarre and painful lives. They believed everyone would want the same thing as them. To be able to see and come to terms with their fates. But just to reafirmate, everything that was not Puccid remained existing. So parts 1 to 5 happened basically the same with minor changes. This is important so you know everyone still around and happy. Jotato still the same, polnareff still a turtle and Giorno still on mafia boss mode and etc.. But everyone that had their lifes defined by Pucci and died during time acceleration had their souls rearrenged in new lifes. Jolyne, Weather, Ermes, Anasui and Jolyne being the most important to our hearts Jolyne doesn't need to be a jojo anymore since her evil to fight doesn't exist in this universe. So she's just Irene. No Jos anymore. Btw. I think either F.F in this universe is just a plankton. Or, since they got a soul(as we see at their death) they might have been put in a new human body that was born around the time Pucci "created" them. So maybe there's a baby F.F around that will end up meeting the crew soon. But one thing that you got wrong and a lot of people do(understandable) Steel ball run does not take place on this universe. It is set in a completely new timeline. There are references and similarities but it's all new. Cried a lot ngl. Part 6 crushes my heart everytime. I have to say again that Pucci is definitely my favorite JoJo villain and one of my favorite JoJo characters. It might be a hot take but i wouldn't mind having him being reborn in this new universe. Being able to have a life without so much pain. With no Dio influence or Perla's loss. But i guess since he never existed, he never suffered also. Great reaction as always! To 1890s we go 🏇🦋🐌

Victor

Part 7 is the main universe

1#johnnyjoestarglazer

correct me if im wrong but it was said somewhere that giorno, trish, and mista were on vacation in florida during part 6 and that giorno may have sensed their presence, also it's a theory that giorno was the one that called the dolphin to pick emporio up.

Salinia Townsend

WE MADE IT! I can’t believe we’re finally here! BUT STEEL BALL RUN!

Fernando Aguja

Boingo was only predicting the NEAR future

Disco Heaven

it wasn't meant to be taken as in he knew all along its just a fun fact.

Jay rellim

honestly dont watch steel ball run until the end of the year maybe when we have a better idea of the release schedule. batch watching was a horrible experience when netflix launched stone ocean smh and dont want you to go through the same thing. FUCK NETFLIX!!!!!!

adspro crew

only the final reaction to jojo's will remain 😭

persika

oh steph.. you really had me crying alongside you with this one!😭 such a bittersweet finale to the original jojo universe, so please excuse my long comment- i just can’t contain it! starting off strong with jolyne and jotaro…🥹 oh my goodness, they make me cry every single time. jotaro’s immediate protective instincts kicking in when anasui is asking for jolyne’s hand in marriage is so cute. the situation was life or death, yet he still pulled his daughter away from that strange man and gave her a hug for reassurance/protection!! his one weakness was her, and what hurt even more was the fact that he knew it too </3 his scream is gut wrenching. we’ve seen him go through SO much, yet the only time he’s ever reacted like that was when his beloved daughter was in danger. this further proved jolyne’s statement: “i knew that you’d come and save me.”💔 they had so much love for one another, and they made it so very evident in their final moments. i see many people say that jolyne died protecting the universe, while jotaro died protecting jolyne. but, if you really think about it, they both died protecting the universe, it’s just that jotaro’s universe was his daughter🥹 moving on because talking about them too much will make me cry, you are spot on with anasui’s development! i can definitely see how people aren’t particularly in love with him, but i really don’t understand how people manage to completely disregard his development. the anasui who fought pucci to avenge foo fighters, the anasui who put his trust in the stone ocean crew, and the anasui who willingly put his life on the line for them is without a doubt different than the anasui that we first met. his actions in the finale really hold a special place in my heart. whew… now for emporio and jolyne :( from the start, their bond has been so strong, and i truly believe that they were the missing pieces in eachother’s lives. the love and care that they both were missing they found in eachother, and you can tell that jolyne’s heart broke knowing that her lineage meant that she had to face pucci rather than stay by emporio’s side. i mean… that was her baby brother😭😭 speaking of jolyne and her lineage, you cannot tell me that she is not the perfect mix of all the joestars that came before her! she carried their resolve, kindness, and humility with such grace and reverence, and i will forever be so proud of her. at the very beginning of the original jjba universe, jonathan says: “there are times when a gentleman has to be courageous and fight, even when his opponent is bigger than he is and he knows he’s going to lose!” and at the very end of the original jjba universe, jolyne says: “face me, father pucci!” similarly, in his own part, jonathan sacrifices his life for a child that isn’t his; and, in jolyne’s part, she also sacrifices her life for a child that isn’t hers. i just can’t help but get emotional thinking about how far the joestar (specifically jonathan’s) compassion and altruism has gone. he exists through jolyne, and she makes him proud!!🥹 backtracking to emporio, i am so so proud of that boy. he is incredibly brave, and i really do not think i can describe in words how much he overcame with his courage. he witnessed the deaths of all of the people who cared for him, and powered through so much on his own :( i mean, imagine seeing the people you love die, only to see them again and they don’t remember anything that you went through together. at that point, it would be better never to see them again! but, at the same time, it really must have soothed his heart to see them in a world where they weren’t cursed. he knew their sacrifices weren’t in vain, and he knew that everything he did led to their happiness. the adoption papers HAVE been signed, and i will continue to always cry when he says “my name is emporio.” wow… i really cannot believe we’ve finally made it to the end. distant dreamer turning into roundabout really does solidify the beauty of jojo’s. i cannot listen to distant dreamer without feeling emotionally overwhelmed, and i blame araki for all of the damage he has caused my heart. roundabout, the previous jojo parts, saying goodbye to the og universe… oh it just hurts so much. as much as i love the part 7-9 universe (which is a lot, since they are all in my top 5 lol), i think a part of me will always miss the first six jojos & their stories🥲 okay i promise im done now!!😅 i always appreciate a safe space to ramble, and i appreciate your reactions and unfiltered commentary even more. thank you so much for allowing us to come on this beautifully emotional journey with you. you’ve made me laugh and cry! i hope now that you’ve basically caught up, you’ll be able to find some more time to relax. you deserve it!! i cannot wait for you to experience the masterpiece that is steel ball run whenever you are ready, and i am so excited to see you next upload. bye bye, steph! <3

astralman

Okay then. Araki never said anything like that. An editor for the collected edition jokingly questioned if Giorno would feel the pull too, but knowing that the sons of DIO were pulled in a pattern of three, and that they were there to because they would accept Pucci's motivation and help him, it's clear when you think about it that Giorno being there wouldn't make sense in the narrative. Dolphins are around on the Florida coast, Jolyne roped one that was going by herself to pick up Emporio.

astralman

I've seen good number of people misunderstand the ending completely at first, so I'm glad you pretty much got it mostly right. Those who die during acceleration are left behind in that universe, and Pucci stated that he'd need to cycle through time to the date in which he originally got Made in Heaven to make everything permanent even without him. The biggest real difference in the manga at the end is that FF wasn't shown in the sky, which makes sense since as you said without Pucci they are just regular plankton. While that might seem kind of sad, I'm sure if FF got the chance to choose, they would sacrifice themself again in order for all their friends to have this happier life. David Production decided to go ahead and put them there with the others just to respect their sacrifice. Once I fully wrapped my head around the ending, I understood that having Pucci mess with time and then using that against him to erase him undid all the bad he had ever done, so Jolyne/Irene never go to prison. Jotaro can spend more time with his daughter, so she stays out of trouble and it seems to imply that let her meet Anakiss before he killed anyone. I do think you are giving DIO too much credit though, since we know that he's always reveled in being unrepentedly evil. DIO need Pucci to achieve the plan, but from what we know of him, he likely had different motivations from Pucci, thinking that if humanity knows the consequences of resisting him that there would be no limit to the power he'd have. . Araki did write an afterword for the final chapter of Stone Ocean, saying that Jolyne's soul carried on all the strength and compassion from her previous life, even though she had none of the memories. He also said that he originally intended for Stone Ocean to be the last part, and that it would have had a different ending, likely with Jolyne stopping Pucci from using acceleration. He decided sometime during the last third of the story that he wasn't satisfied with ending JoJo's like that, and that he was going to begin an entirely new JoJo's continuity after he was done, using everything he'd learned to give it a strong start. With this in mind, he came up with an ending that would end things with a bang and leave no doubt that the Joestars of the universe we had been following up until now can finally live in peace. Anyone who's kept up with the manga will tell you, there's a lot to look forward to. I'd have to look it up again if you wanted to see it, but I saw a pair of videos that talked about the "13 phrases" said to the Green Baby and how they each have two meanings, one being what DIO intended as the steps of the "Heaven Plan" and the other being the actual events of the story. For example, in DIO's perspective, the phrase "SECRET EMPEROR" (which is the final phrase) refers to a GOD, which is what DIO assumed he'd become with Pucci directing the order of the new universe while DIO achieves power over Humanity. Within the narrative though, "SECRET EMPEROR" refers to Emporio, since he had been hidden away from the world and was completely unknown to Pucci until almost the very end. To this day, Araki still occasionally writes a new chapter of his spin-off manga "Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan", which are now the only stories he writes that take place in the original universe, the newer chapters take place after the end of Stone Ocean.

astralman

If you're looking at parts 1-6 and parts 7 onward, they are different universes, this has been confirmed for a long time. From each of their perspectives, they are both main universes, though it helps discussion to refer to 1-6 as the original.

Salinia Townsend

Oooh! Also, the rain was meant to represent FF!

Rothwyr

that might be the case and it's sad to lose the characters we love but now none of them experienced the curse of the joestars, all the grief and pain they endured is gone and they can lead normal lives. sad for us but good for them!

Heraclitus

Irene is apparently a reference to one of Araki's early manga; Gorgeous Irene. But part of me wonders if it's also a reference to "Come on Eileen", which also has themes of defying fate (Verse 2).

STEINS ; GAMER

What a wonderful world. Bittersweet though because it's technically not the same crew that we knew but still a wonderful world.

DavidLynchGlazer

If you DO watch steel ball run. Please note that Netflix is pulling some fuck shit. So it’s up to you if you wanna wait for the next episodes to come out, or hop straight into the manga as we wait (and personally, I wouldn’t mind manga reactions 👀)

Astro

I've always wanted a spin off story of emporio seeing jotaro in the new timeline Where he tries to explain what happened and due to the heavy load of trauma, he gets overwhelmed, while everyone doubts him initially I would want Jotaro to immediately understand, And reassure him in his stoic way (in an ideal senario, Jotaro may have become more openly empathetic) having stayed with Irene instead of going off to protect her and his wife from DIO's followers. Otherwise It was always a amazing ending to me, something about it just hits different every time i see it.

Every time this part ends…. I shed tears. Especially that ending. It makes me so so sad that it’s ended. Steph it’s truly been a pleasure to watch this every time you upload. I’ve been going through a huge transition in my life and for 10 months this gave me a reason to sit down and watch the show I enjoy the most… again. And so many people have joined in I remember when there were like 3 comments on every patron upload 😭. Anyways thank you! To be honest I planned on only subscribing until the end of part 4… then it was until the end of part 6… and I’ll be honest I don’t know what else I would want to watch… but for now I’ll be here.

why does that make you dislike it? Made in heaven is so OP i dont see a way he could lose to them. emporio only won thanks to everyone's efforts helping him get to the right place in the right time with the right disc

emporio and hayato most traumatized kids in JOJOs, i wonder who had it worse. Emporio went through more but at least he had a stand and friends he could rely on throughout the anime, hayato was alone till the final fight and was living w his enemy close and personal, and was lowkey molested by him (in a non sexual way but still)

And then he said “I like to think of the rain at the end as a blessing from Foo Fighters” 🥲you made me cry hoping for that too now

I’d love to see a Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan reaction after Episode 1 of Steel Ball Run, since Netflix is pulling a crazy release schedule! :)

I cry like a baby everytime Distant Dreamer starts to play at the end of

btw cool detail oingo boingo's comic rightly predicted Jotaro's death with his head being split open 3 times in the series: 1. When the fake Jotaro got blown up by the orange 2. When Kira blew up Jotaro before rewinding time 3. And Pucci splitting his head open with his stand Also you should do the Rohan OVA since no one knows when the second sbr episode will come out

Howl

the scariest villain is netflix

It is very important for you to know that Parts 7, 8, and 9 take place in a different narrative timeline from the previous parts. The JoJo reboot is a creative decision by Araki sensei and has nothing to do with Pucci or Made in Heaven. The new JoJoverse does NOT take place in Irene Joestar's universe.

SUCH solid freaking part. rip the OG GANG, but glad Emporio rocking it in the Ireneverse so everything from parts 1-5 occured just with exception to part 6 where their counterparts(true soulds) had better lives cute that Irene and Anakiss got together yippeeee, and yes new SBRverse part 7-9 in a seperate verse from the Ireneverse and MADE IN HEAVEN such a crazy wicked power wow trying to let people do what they already done and know their future is hella bad since then people lose free will and speeding time up so fast that one can reset the universe and also LESGOO Emporio our goat with the will of his squad and WEATHER REPORT, If for example what Pucci is saying another universe started the current one does that link to why we get a sense of deja vu for doing things as our counterparts in another universe had already experienced them hmm fascinating. Love me some lessons in JoJo And yes, time to watch Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan unless you want to start SBR since will need to wait who knows how long till the next episode/s (sometime 2026 is what they saidto release given how hard it is to animate horses and my prediction is it will end around 2029) ? Such a beautiful ending to the OG Universe, ILL BE UR Roundabout KISHIBE ROHAN MY GUYYYY, DAMN PUCCI really emultating that DIO energy and making it his own, such aura and throwing of the knives in stop time just like DIO Emporio like Hayato is another kid who has been able to foil the villains plan I guess also Giorno since he was only 15 THANKS STEPH yayy and tierlist time yipppe and no ya didnt rush for nothing, as no one would have known that we would have to wait so long for the next episode so all gucci thanksssss STEPHHHH

Scenes they removed from Made In Heaven arc showing global chaos: 1. A group of elementary students jump roping to the sound of fast-forwarded music. Resulting in seizures. 2. An evening interview jokingly commentating on the passing of time 3. A news reporter in the UK speaking about a ‘rumor’ on the accelerating of time. 4. Exam starting for a second, before the instructor ends the session. 5. A man pouring steak sauce and accidentally spilling the whole bottle. 6. Phone bill doubling as a man calls his mother. 7. A comic artist firing his assistants because they’re overdue on the deadline. 8. Two people having sex for 4 hours straight. 9. People trapped and vomiting in an elevator that’s descending 50 floors in an instant . 10. An old man rotting as soon as he dies on the hospital bed in front of his grandchildren and spouse. 11. Scientist arguing back and forth on the explanation for the accelerating time. 12. Contacts are drying and sticking to people’s eyes 13. People’s tongues are sticking to their jaw because of the lack of moisture 14. TV’s collecting dust in an electronic store before furniture collapses into itself. 15. Paper money begins fading away 16. Glasses and cash registers start falling apart. 17. A woman’s silicone implant begins drooping 18. A man’s wig begins falling apart

Loved these reactions! Been following for a good bit and it really is such an ending that makes you think abt it alot after watching. Also the pause frame on Qtaro Kujo (fake Jotaro) really cracking me up

If you like JoJo I guess you’ll also like the videogame JoJo: Eyes of Heaven. There’s a story in it, a separate one. It was written by Araki, so basically it’s canon, too. For non-gamers I guess there’s an option to watch a whole story somewhere on YouTube, it’s available there. Just clips with the story going, minus gameplay. Who knows, maybe you’ll be interested in this info. Honestly I like the story there very much, so many amazing things happen in this videogame, like some characters who never met in manga and anime finally meeting each other, it’s awesome

goodbye OG universe 😢😢

MyRedQueen

I'll be blunt. I didn't really enjoy this part and the ending made me give up on JoJo's for a few years before i continued again with Part 7. Which is easily the best part and it's not even close, but it's also unfortunate that Netflix is hellbent on ruining this part as well. 😒

I'd like to know which are your favorite JoJo crew so far?

Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. I kinda agree tho, Stone Ocean at times reverted to what I disliked the most about Stardust Crusaders, especially in the middle there were a lot of fights that felt meaningless and just there to have fights for the sake of if, after DiU and Golden Wind made the minor fights more interesting. But Jolyne and Pucci carried this part, Pucci has in my opinion the best and most complex goal, and it makes him feel less of pure evil compared to the other villains, and I am a sucker for bittersweet endings, with Jotaro and Jolyne dying just like that without dramatic flashes, shows how strong Pucci was. And the ending left me thinking ”who won at the end?”. Puccis plan got stopped by Emporio but literally the whole crew got slaughtered and Emporio now lives in a timeline with a ”fake” crew. So everyone kinda lost

Marie Kopenhafer

I love this part so much. Jolyne unlike every other Jojo doesn't start as some badass hero. She has to grow. Her tenacity and inner strength develops so much over this part and its so wonderful.

Jay rellim

Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. i completely agree with that statement, bc i think part 5 is lowkey tied with part 3 for worst parts. I'm curious what makes SO fights feel meaningless compared to Golden wind which imo really felt more like villain of the week?? i feel like not much plot happened from getting trish to bruno fighting king crimson, and once again from learning about the arrow until the colosseum fight. If you exclude the fights the story is, Giorno joined the gang, they got trish as a mission, trish's dad tried to kill her + the crew's response, polnareff gives them hope for the arrow, we learn more about doppio + diavolo, fight for the arrow + soul splitting, final battle, cool ending flashback in Stone ocean jolyne goes to jail, jotaro realizes he's actually the target, jolyne gets the disc + delivers it, they look for the bone turned into green baby, we learn more about pucci + DIO and hints of the plan throughout the part, pucci gets the baby and transforms, jolyne and crew escape to find pucci, heavy weather arc, pucci shows his new stand, pucci again gets a new stand, final battle v1, heaven resets and we finally learn the full plan, controversial ending reset. I think part 6 had way more plot while part 5 felt like a smoother version of part 3 which was fight fight fight while traveling, with most of the plot being revealed at the beginning and then updated midway. part 5 was carried by bruno and had aura moments. i guess almost everyone in part 5 at least got multiple fights bc they worked together more vs part 6 so that was cool. but still imo part 5 was a nice linear story w hype moments and part 6 was more experimental, daring, and had better plot progression

omg this brought back very faint memories from back when i read the manga for the first time

I've been holding on, but I've got to leave for a bit. I'll probably come back when I get a new job.

mathias Norli

just how many books did Emporio read LOL

1ts_Neo

So real 😞

rangga

You can see the Disc in wrapped in Emporio with Jolyne threads closely while riding the dolphin Also Jolyne know this dolphin fact probably from Jotaro marine biologist knowledge as well

rangga

Pucci regret accidentally killing Perla then resort to creating new universe when fate is predestined so he can make peace with its regret later in the future

jab

I believe made in heaven is highly inspired by the four horseman since pucci is "leading" the world to "true happiness"

rangga

Jonathan died in the ocean saving a child Jolyne died in the ocean saving a child It is indeed a roundabout path afterall

wah indo bang wkwk

The finale episode basically can be summed up as a catholic priest chasing down an innocent child in prison

Catch the Rainbow

Way late, but I do love how Pucci shows how much of a hypocrite he is in the finale. He claims he would gladly give his life if only Emporio would let him complete the time loop, yet the only reason he didn't complete it was because he selfishly wanted to kill Emporio before the loop completed so he couldn't come after him later on. If he was truly selflessly acting to bring "happiness to humanity", he would have just finished the job and not cared about the threat to himself. Act like a lil bitch, die like a lil bitch Pucci lol
