[JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure] The first time I read JoJo was in the second half of part 6, so I had the impression that it was a weird manga that was kind of unsettling and hard to understand.

1: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

Me too.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

Me too.

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I was in the episode of Chocolata.

I felt that Giorno’s hairstyle was creepier than the scattered Chocolata.

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx7

I also started reading it right around the part about the snail transformation.

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

If it hadn’t been adapted into a TV anime, I probably would have never read it in my lifetime.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

I also started from that strange story in Part 5 where Narancia gets his tongue cut off, so it probably took me over 10 years to read it properly.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I quickly opened the Shonen Jump I was reading while standing…

The first contact was where the jelly mouse was on the double-page spread.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think there are many parts of Chapter 6 that are unclear.

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The first time I read JoJo, it was during the snail transformation arc…

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I was about 10 years old, I saw a comic in Jump magazine with some unpleasant drawings that had lines like “The automatic door closes quickly!” and I thought it was gross and didn’t like it; that was my first impression.

I found out that it was during the activation of Made in Heaven about 20 years later.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I was a kid, even when I bought Jump, I would skip over JoJo.

It was interesting when I read it around high school.

12: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The first thing I read was about Grateful Dead and how Narancia ages.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

I debuted in Jump in the fifth grade, and at that time it was in the latter half of the sixth part; I was wondering why American comics were featured.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was the episode of Rolling Stone after the 5th part, wasn’t it?

Of course, just looking at that part alone doesn’t give you any understanding of the story, and I actually only started reading properly from part 6 as well.

16: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

I thought that after reading just the part where the character turns into a snail and has an accident when I was a child, I would never touch this manga again for the rest of my life.

It came up while I was reading JoJo.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

That’s why JoJo references were prevalent in the ancient internet.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I first read it, I found it messy and chaotic in Stone Ocean, so I didn’t really feel like reading it…

After a few years, when I looked at it from the first part, I gradually got used to it, didn’t mind it, and enjoyed it.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

The scene where the FF crushes and kills the person who came to check on the cabin.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first time I read it was the episode about the mouse hunt in Part 4.

I remember thinking that the depiction of dog poop was really realistic and gross.

21: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Aren’t there a lot of people who started from the snail episode of part 6? I was one of them too.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

When the One Piece anime was adapted and I saw it in magazines, it was around the latter half of the 5th arc or the 6th arc.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was skipping over it because the illustrations and story in the middle of volume 6 were hard to get into.

I started reading SBR from episode 1 because it was easy to read, but I didn’t keep up with it after the transfer.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

I might have properly read it for the first time in Steel Ball Run.

25: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I have a memory of a scene where a man’s head is protruding from the stomach of a flight attendant or crew member, and I think it’s from JoJo, but the truth is unclear.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it was probably around part 3.

When Green Eyes was being published.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

I had the image of a manga where fingers often get chopped off.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

Many people are being exposed to it for the first time in the 6th division.

Is everyone in their 30s?

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was Kira’s Sheer Heart Attack…

That’s way too much of a monster.

34: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

Compared to the other manga that are published, the art and atmosphere were so different that it was kind of scary.

35: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The poor paper quality of Jump also contributes to the atmosphere of about six parts.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I started reading Jump around January to April 2003, I would be around 35 years old?

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you look at it from the first part, they are already old folks…

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was indeed JoJo.

I feel like I’ve been released from the mental shock that had been blurry for about 20 years.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I was in sixth grade, there was only about one person around me who read JoJo…

40: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

I had the impression that it was a manga with both disturbing content and art.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

Everyone is so young…

I am where Joseph is fighting with a crossbow.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was a scene where time was accelerating for me.

I was reading it thinking, “What is this? I don’t understand.”

43: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought it was creepy that Kouichi’s face was going to be on the cover of a book, so I closed it back then.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

I only saw part four for the first time, but I had a similar impression.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

It left an impression on me because it was the part where the Bohemian goat appears.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I was a kid, my dad was reading a convenience store version of a manga, and when he showed it to me, I could only think it was a gruesome, dark, and creepy manga.

I’m currently so hooked that I bought the entire series on Kindle.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

Now it has become established as such, but the concept of visualizing the stand’s superpowers is incomprehensible at first glance.

I think to myself, “What is this?” and when I start reading from the beginning, it’s a special breathing technique for fighting and there’s no stand at all.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought it was interesting when it was revealed that Weather and my dad are twins.

I had been skimming over it until then.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s easy to imagine there are people from the Bao generation if they are anonymous.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it was around the first time I saw the Bunbun family.

I only looked at the WJ part of chapter 7, so even though I knew about SBR, I didn’t know much about the JoJo series for a while.

55: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The sixth part is too gross!

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first time I happened to see it was the episode where Suzy Q gets taken over, and it left me traumatized.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was almost a comment about the thread images, but the intensity of the subsequent Puchih battle was captivating.

58: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

From around elementary school age, they tend to avoid things with a graphic style, and since the content is quite gory, well, they’ll probably just skim through it…

60: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t understand how comics that everyone finds gross at first glance have hit it big overseas in recent years.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

I found a Jump magazine at the barbershop, and when I read it, I got to the part where Narancia cuts his tongue in the Clash of the Talking Heads, and I went “Ew, that’s gross,” and skipped the page.

62: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

The magazine is different, but I had similar feelings about Karakuri Circus…

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

A manga with such a collection of quirks sold 100 million copies… Well, successful works all have their own unique quirks, don’t they?

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

Why is everyone just watching episodes that are just the right amount of creepy?

I have a memory of feeling unwell during the snail arc in part 6 of JoJo.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if I was told many times in the past to fix the quirks in my artwork.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remember a scene where I was on a date with Eliza, sliding down a huge slide.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

The sixth part feels like it’s been lost all along.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

I am in the vicinity of assassination feng shui.

I didn’t really understand it.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

On my first viewing, I thought it was gross when the underwater scene turned into the face of the High Priestess in part 3.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

The writing in Part 6 reaches a peak of verbosity that can feel somewhat creepy, even for those accustomed to JoJo.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I got the DISC of Star Platinum, I thought that Jolyne would eventually use Star Platinum.

Did not use.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first book I read was Kenzo’s Dragon’s Dream.

Since my legs are like springs, I can’t go in the direction I want, so I’m struggling because the outcome doesn’t match the feng shui in the first place. I don’t get why an attack that turns my legs into springs is hitting; it’s absurd. Why is this crappy manga being treated as a masterpiece of ability battles?

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remember seeing a work with a JoJo-like art style where someone is threatened by a demon or something, tries to catch something strange with their mouth but fails, and ultimately gets killed.

I can’t tell if this is mixed with other works or if it’s my own delusion.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

6 parts of creepy scenes are excessive.

75: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The unique art style and graphic depictions may turn people away at first, but since it’s often seen in memes online, many end up taking an interest and find it interesting when they read it out of curiosity later on.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think Part 4 is the mildest in many ways.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

The content is quite a refreshing celebration of humanity, so it leaves a good aftertaste.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

My memory is a bit fuzzy, but I think the first one I read was the episode where the Derby brothers settle their rivalry in part 3.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the 7th part, it has really returned to a nice style…

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

Part 6 is quite interesting after the activation of Made in Heaven, but it’s a bad ending.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

I just got into the new part after Capcom’s third game came out, and when I started reading it, the art style was hard to see and the stand abilities were complicated, so I was taken aback…

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

All the characters had lewd fashion, which strongly gave off the feeling that it was something children shouldn’t be seeing.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

After reading the part where needles and scalpels pop out of Doppio’s body during the Metallica battle, I thought, “This manga is too early for me,” and didn’t read it for several years.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like it was a manga that I couldn’t understand at all as a child, to the point of feeling nauseous, and it was creepy and scary…

The protagonist was wearing something strange on their head…

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was the part where Derby and Joseph were having a showdown putting coins in glasses filled with drinks.

I was at an age where I couldn’t really understand ability battles, so my reaction was just that I was surprised such a game existed!

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was the introduction of the Highway Star.

Purely too scary.

90: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I was the same way, but I got into it through anime and now I’m reading JoJo Lands.

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first time I read it was the episode where Bucciarati and Secco are chasing each other underground.

94: Japan Otaku Reviews

When the third game came out, there was a booklet included with V Jump, and I remember reading it while thinking it was gross.

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

I distinctly remember a scene from when I was in elementary school where a character, whose gender I couldn’t determine, was talking about snails mating.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

My JoJo starts from the Aqua Necklace.

I was wondering why the hat-wearing guy who seems like the protagonist isn’t very active, since I hadn’t read part 3.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first time I bought and read Jump was at the part with Oecomoba, and it seemed really painful, plus it hasn’t been published since the next week, so I had the image of it being a mysterious manga for a long time.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

From around chapter 5, JoJo is the same as Kochikame in Jump.

The survey had a position that was not heavily influenced by the series, as it was intended for an adult audience.

The publishing order is basically fixed and does not change.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

Maybe we’re around the same age.

Later, I was recommended by a friend to start reading from volume 3, and it was incredibly interesting, and I got hooked.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it’s a battle of abilities and intelligence, and when I read it, there are often moments where it breaks through with a mysterious concept like intensity, leaving me wondering what this is.

If you read it thinking that’s how it is from the beginning, it’s really interesting.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remember being scared when the knife got stuck during the accelerating round with the ice, and it was really something.

103: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Throughout the entire series, the battle scenes are gory, but I think the most intense damage expressions were in Parts 5 and 6.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first time I properly read it was a volume 5 paperback that was at a relative’s house, so my impression of the boss was fixed for a long time with Bucciarati included.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

I avoided it because it has a dark style and is graphic, so it’s probably not something for kids.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

What is this outfit… I remember my first impression, but I can’t recall who it was.

I think it’s the fifth season, but I don’t know which episode.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

Starting from chapter 6, the grip on the story noticeably weakened.

By having points of interest, it can become interesting, so boss battles tend to be more exciting.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first issue I read had Deibo dying in a toilet, so it left me with the impression of being a grotesque and disgusting manga.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

Aren’t there too many scenes where it looks like there are lots of holes in the face?

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was right at Heavy Weather too, but that was quite a low point in terms of how sick I felt, so the timing was just too bad.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

When you think about it, isn’t it impossible to throw popcorn higher than a lamp?

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

The panel of the ant betting house takeover boy drinking cola is eerie, and I thought, what an unsettling manga this is…

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

I occasionally read the stories featuring Rohan.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

I also have memories of first encountering JoJo during the Heavy Weather episode.

But I think I just forgot that I actually saw it at an earlier time.

When I suddenly watched the latter half of JoJo Part 6 in my youth, I couldn’t understand anything and just skipped through it.

The image of the snail transformation was just too creepy, and that’s probably when it finally stuck in my memory.

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

The guy in strange clothes and the one with a weird hairstyle are both excessive.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

This thread seems to have a lot of guys in their mid-30s.

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

The scene where the eyes in the thread image turn into flower petals is really gross.

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

I really didn’t like the seemingly irreversible damage depiction that makes it seem like my companions age in Grateful Dead.

In Kinnikuman, the scene where Bear Claw gets stuck in Ramen Man’s head is one of my childhood traumas.

124: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I was quite shocked because it was my first time seeing the jelly made from boiled mice in the fourth part.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I was a kid, I couldn’t read JoJo for a while because of the trauma from the episode where we went to eat Italian food.

127: Japan Otaku Reviews

The confessional will be adapted into a live-action movie soon.

130: Japan Otaku Reviews

After finishing part 6, I got hooked and read all the volumes, so I was really moved to be able to watch part 7 in real time.

131: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first JoJo is the story of the wealthy mountain that doesn’t move.

132: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since the first one I read was the stand that possessed the back of Part 4, I thought it was a horror story.

135: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first time I saw it was the episode where the pet shop in Part 3 was digging a tunnel.

I thought it was a scary comic.

136: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t know what Araki is thinking when he draws, but the scenes where there are holes in the human body (especially the face) or where they are parasitized by strange things are just too creepy every time.

137: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I first started reading Jump, I wondered who the incredible double personality character, JoJo, was.

138: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

It’s not just gross; it’s so creepy that there are a lot of visuals in JoJo that make you think, “I really don’t want to take that attack.”

139: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have liked damage like cutting meat or parasitizing for quite a long time, right?

140: Japan Otaku Reviews

Those in their 30s who spent their adolescence on Niconico probably encountered either internet memes, MUGEN, or JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure for the first time.

141: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder why damage depiction tends to have mysterious gaps to begin with.

142: Japan Otaku Reviews

Aren’t we all young?

The volume layer here is mostly in their 40s and 50s…

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first time I saw it was a story about the Rolling Stones, and it seemed like they had to keep running away from something until they died, but that’s definitely from JoJo, right…?

144: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remember the first time I read that.

I am the chapter with the iron tower of Super Fly in Part 4.

I was thinking, what is this manga?

151: Japan Otaku Reviews

Personally, the scene in JoJo that looks the most painful is when the guard’s nails are caught with thread and pulled off down to the top of the foot.

152: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Even upon re-examination, the thread’s image is so crazy that it makes me laugh.

153: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like it was around the time when the rat that Cars released was eating each other.

154: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, in stand battles, a clear one-hit incapacitation is usually a blow that creates a large hole in the abdomen or chest, which doesn’t change much.

I think even Mr. was barely able to avoid that part; the other damage is abnormal, and the hole opens relatively well.

155: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t this something that should be done at home rather than away?

156: Japan Otaku Reviews

I understand that there was a time when it had a core fanbase but was also considered to have an unpleasant art style.

157: Japan Otaku Reviews

It wasn’t the first time, but I happened to read it and it left a strange impression on me when Kira gets aroused by the Mona Lisa.

I thought it was a strange manga.

158: Japan Otaku Reviews

I started reading it because Baoh and some of the themes were popular in my high school club activities…

159: Japan Otaku Reviews

As expected, there’s no one like the magical boy Beaty.

160: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like people are split into two categories: those who flat out refuse it and those who love it!

I haven’t seen many people actually read JoJo and say it’s boring.

161: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I had that impression, but my image changed with Taizo.

162: Japan Otaku Reviews

I thought it was a horror manga because it was a centipede shop for size 4 shoes.

163: Japan Otaku Reviews

I also couldn’t tell the difference between enemies and allies.

164: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

(I can’t say I learned it from Mote-Ou…)

165: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s something like hiring a mercenary to defeat an opponent when you can’t spend money, which I read when I was in elementary school.

I’m watching the anime, but I haven’t reached that scene yet.

166: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you start reading from the middle of the chapter, it tends to have a thick art style that makes it feel like a graphic action horror, so I usually end up turning back.

I started reading it after seeing it trending on the internet…

167: Japan Otaku Reviews

Support on the internet was strong, but it really took off after being adapted into a TV anime.

169: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ve been reading it diligently since part 1.

There was a sense of dirtiness and discomfort related to vampires and zombies in the image.

The uncle who came to pick up Poko is seriously creepy.

172: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was in the middle of fighting against someone who forgets things in the prison battle of Chapter 6.

174: Japan Otaku Reviews

Basically, you end up unknowingly caught in a stand attack, and then the flow of battle becomes about somehow escaping from that, so there is a sense of horror.

175: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like there have been an unusually large number of monsters since Part 6 in terms of character design.

Everyone has strange hair growth patterns.

176: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It’s hard to deny that those who aren’t interested see a manga in Jump from the middle and think, “Ugh, what a gross manga…”

It feels like this crazy level of fame might somehow be a mistake.

177: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the 90s, they were doing things like “Rokudenashi Blues,” but even among that, the artwork is too intense for elementary school students.

178: Japan Otaku Reviews

I definitely thought it was a gross manga when I read about Koichi-kun getting hit by Heaven’s Door and turning into paper.

179: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was surprised to realize later that JoJo Part 6 and Eyeshield 21 were published during the same period because my memories from back then are vague.

181: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was popular and sold well, but it definitely gained widespread recognition and became a global hit after being adapted into an anime.

182: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Everyone was unreasonably fixated on targeting my eyeballs.

183: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was a Rikiel round.

I learned about blood in urine for the first time.

184: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Part 1 of the anime hadn’t been so amazing, what would have happened?

It was perfect in every way.

185: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think there were a lot of things I didn’t like before it turned into an anime.

I’ve heard that they wouldn’t read it even when I recommended it.

186: Japan Otaku Reviews

There aren’t many mangas that have had their treatment completely changed by being adapted into an anime, like JoJo.

It was once considered a minor work, but now it has become one of the representative works of Jump.

187: Japan Otaku Reviews

Before reading, I couldn’t tell Jonathan and Joseph apart and thought they were the same protagonist until part 2.

191: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The term “JoJo pose” was just walking on its own.

193: Japan Otaku Reviews

That anime started quite a while ago, so my memory is fuzzy…

194: Japan Otaku Reviews

There should have been an OVA before the anime adaptation…

195: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t the money just increasing rapidly?

196: Japan Otaku Reviews

I understand that 2015 was 10 years ago, but when some anime are said to be 10 years old, it makes me feel like Giorno Giovanna.

197: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I think it’s okay to just pretend that part of the movie didn’t happen.

199: Japan Otaku Reviews

Overseas people don’t have many opportunities to read paper manga, and there might not even be translated versions available digitally.

In the end, I guess it will catch on over there because everyone can watch it for free all at once with the anime adaptation.

203: Japan Otaku Reviews

Part of the movie has become a form of collective hallucination.

204: Japan Otaku Reviews

It feels like it wasn’t that minor since games have been continuously released.

I can understand why it has become super popular content now.

205: Japan Otaku Reviews

A knockoff of Fist of the North Star.

It seems there is something called a stand.

It is often parodied on the internet.

About 10 or so years ago, this was the understanding.

207: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are two Jump magazines at my grandmother’s house.

It was a part with the Bad Company battle in each of the 4 parts and a part where it became a snail in the 6th part.

I was wondering what these people who suddenly appeared are…

209: Japan Otaku Reviews

Speaking of which, I haven’t seen parody jokes lately.

210: Japan Otaku Reviews

Many people without a name probably prefer the arrangement of the Derby brother battle and the DIO battle in the OVA.

I prefer the OVA version of the time-stopping performance.

211: Japan Otaku Reviews

Before I knew it, it has sold 120 million copies…

212: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It seems likely that I’ll encounter JoJo references on the internet before getting to the manga.

About 20 years ago, it seems that JoJo, Kaiji, and Baki were considered essential subjects among net users, both in terms of content and humor.
