Chapter 41 waiting roomContacted by Doctor Roberts, Charming Man infiltrates a military facility on Hualālai to locate the enemy that has been monitoring them for the past six months. Meanwhile, the light rod Stand tracks down the team underwater, breaks into their submarine and attempts to attack them. After activating the antenna, the Stand's user reveals themselves over the radio and proposes a deal.How will the negotiations play out? Write your predictions.
i think Charming Man Jodio is going to be put in a position where he can't just go on the offensive
hopefully we finally get his name

Place your bets now, what will John Rods name be? My money is on Rod Stewart
3 hours, and 49 minutes until The JOJOLands Chapter 41 releases in Japan

>>291695135king crimson - thrak
>>291695135Some weird bullshit completely unrelated to either the stand or user just because araki was listening to the song at the time
>>291695351this. nobody is gonna guess it
fortunate son
>>291695448The better bet to make would be "is it a song the average person would have ever heard of or not"
>>291695744It will be neither popular or obscure but the lyric connecting it to a signal seeking antenna will be completely left-field
Paco > John Rod > Goku

>>291696571paco's been my favourite of the group since he did this to ningbo
>>291696918That fight was hilariously brutalI love him screaming at him with his brain damaged talk, only to get shot in the face by Matte Kudasai
>>291696571True, and you should say it.
>>291693512Are we getting a chapter this month? I thought it was on hiatus every October.
>>291697699For some reason it isn't this month.
Dragona should go back to wearing a bikini
I hope Dragona gets molested this chapter. Yasuho would never starve us like this.
>>291697699Chapter drops in 24 minutes
>>291697931Howler will come back in part 3 of the story and Lucy Steel his ass, pregnancy included. Trust the plan.
Caught up yesterday and I gotta say I'm liking this more than part 8. Great crew chemistry.
>>291698155part 8 is one of the weakest ones desu, but yeah something is definitely different about the way araki is writing his characters now, this crew feels more real than any other part
>Inb4 5 minutes
>>291698465I love you
>>291698465I hate you
It's out
Holy aura
Instead of going on hiatus, he just put out a short chapter. I guess that is preferable.
Wait was that it? Only 20 pages?
Wtf?? That was the length of a weekly chapter
>>291698754>>291698799It was probably the compromise for putting out a chapter in october instead of just doing a hiatus like in previous years
I fucking told you guys last month that John Rod wasn’t defeated. People were saying that because Paco punched him it was over, but we heard him tell them that it wanted to negotiate Also, is it possible he has two users at once? Charming Man floated the idea. Maybe each guy controls one rod?
>>291698736Maybe he wants to reach the 1000th chapter on the anniversary (december).
>>291699192That was my thought as well.
>>291698973>he FLEDIs this your hero?
>>291699317It’s called a strategic retreat
I fucking love Usagi

>>291699540Do it yourself.
>>291699540Taking a huge dump right now
>>291700108So that's definitely Sgt. Longbeach's gf rightHoly NTR
>>291700007Does anyone else find Araki's art hard to parse? I have to really focus my eyes to see what is going on.

>>291700508An 'underwater gun' . . . How absurd.
>>291700108I remember that tattoo.
funny dragona face
>>291700386Bless his heart
>>291700609it's the SEIZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA face
>>291700672>gagaLady Gaga namesake confirmed?
>>291700705RADIO GAGA
>>291700705No it's Radio Gaga 2.0
>>291700224
>>291700705That's just the sound it makes.
>>291700705>>291700753>>291700761I personally interpreted that as radio transmission sfx
>>291700609Kek.
>>291700782Also idk where people get the araki chapter note or whatever so someone else is gonna have to post that one
>>291700508Nigga what?>>291700609Oh so he just forgot the word 'harpoon'
>>291700782
>>291700782The Joestar luck of planes and subs sinking continues.
>>291700258Did Araki change his mind about Paco beating his noodle ass last month
>>291700296Skill issue
>>291700887When Araki retires he should star in a travel show. I need to see him visiting various countries and taking it easy.
>>291700909You cannot beat The Rod
>>291700753>>291700761Please god no araki not again A. FUCKING. GUARDRAIL.
>>291700921I'm being genuine, do you find it easy to tell what's going on in Araki's pages? Compared to another random busy page like this, I just picked one on my hard drive.
>>291700108Is that a skull tattoo or a spider?
>>291700296Yeah it takes a bit of effort for me too. The sheer volume of details combined with the striking perspective he often uses can make things disorienting sometimes.
>>291700296It's because most manga use stylization to simplify designs while araki normally does the opposite.
>>291695135"Starman" or "Mr. Blue Sky"
>>291700258why did araki decide to give us the worlds blackest dragona for this page and this page alone
>>291701311Probably has to do with the screentone being a gradient
>>291701311Reference to his favourite movie of 1992
>>291700590are those fucking rods?
>>291702068>>291700590>>291700108Holy shit this might actually be a sky high retread
>>291700296his work specially once his assistants started using more digital tools at some point during part 6 has kinda suffered in readability due to their reliance on filtered and traced photos which can tend towards looking "crusty" specially if they try to stay within the confines of araki's hatching and inking heavy stylemost mangas that do photo bgs tend to go for halftones for the shading which helps separate them from the characters and keep everything a bit cleaner but now whenever we get a shot of machinery or buildings that's not hand drawn it gets real messy
>>291700761so it's gonna be called radio gagaga and it'll be the stand of a direct descendant of the road railing (who fucked a woman, somehow)
Love this lil nigga
>>291700705Paparazzi wouldn't be a bad name, follows "transmissions" to chase and torment their targets for monetary gain.
>>291702463I never stopped to notice Araki redesigned it at some point between its debut and now. It is now bigger, has a more square-shaped head, and its feet are more like rabbit feet rather than the stylized bird feet from its first appearance.
>>291697931I think Dragona should be molested every chapter or at least every other chapter
>>291702681Based
>>291700609Good thing Jodio has too much Joestar energy to be a school shooter, because god damn.
>>291700508The fuck is an "underwater gun"Does Araki not know what a speargun is?Did the translator fuck up?Is it a character-building moment to show that Jodio is kinda uneducated and doesn't know that it's called a speargun?
>>291703029>the matte kudosai turns into a squirt gun
>>291700148>le judgemental Joestar emoji>>291700715>>291700758>>291700782>rages and leavesRodBROS... our aura...
>>291702958Yeah, he stops at being a school bus burner.
>>291700887>even someone as traveled as Araki has places he thinks he'll never visitedGet a feeling so complicated.
I quit JJBA after how horrible Jojolion ended, has part 9 been any better?
>>291703281Yes.
>>291697931Araki got bored of molesting him
>>291702600>Gets localized to Papa Razzi
>>291700590>killed and reincarnated into a world where you get to command a rod Stand and fuck some jarhead's girlfriendNot a bad deal.
>>291700782That's it? This chapter is too short
>>291700296Yeah, all the submarine scenes in this chapter were a bit confusing as to wtf I'm even looking at.I guess it adds to the claustrophobic feeling of the chapter, but I doubt it feels intentional; it gets better on reading it a second time.
>>291695135Armageddon Dildos https://youtu.be/cXm8nEs3FKo
>>291703281yes, get caught up now.
>>291703511Still better than a hiatus.
>>291703281It’s still not quite as good as jojolion, i'd say it’s a 9/10 for now.
>>291703281What didn't you like about Jojolion? The last 20 chapters were literally the only thing I liked about it.
>>291700782>"Duhhh, should I stop us from drowning first, or read the enclosed instruction book?"SPEDgona
>>291703950Dragona is talking to the viewer, Dora the explorer style
>>291703925Did you read it after it was finished or came in at some point of its monthly releases? I wonder how many people who dislike JoJolion are the latter (myself included). JoJolion was pretty damn good up to Vitamin C, some spotty moments here and there with the mystery and consistency but that is Araki's weakness as a writer.
>>291700782No Stand has hard carried as much as Smooth Operators, my favorite of the entire series so far
>>291703950He's being rhetorically sarcastic
>>291700307CIA...?
>>291705280A lotta loyalty for a teenage gang!
>>291700296>>291701132I think it's because Araki is pretty lazy about coloring things. He pretty much only does it when something is supposed to be dark so stuff ends up being just outlines on white. The page you posted has a lot more contrast so it's easy to tell what's what.
>>291701132It's still better than one piece
>>291705565what a fucking high bar, what else, Sakamoto Days? Shut up.
>>291705352First one to talk gets to stay on my submarine
>>291702463Can't wait for him to be called ''Wait, Please'' in the Anime.
>>291705160I read through it after it was finished and was disappointed to not directly have a follow-up on the steel ball run and the corpse, so I wasn't really interested in the whole mystery of who Jojo was at all. From the motorcycle arc onward, I just thought Jojo was overpowered if he just always worked with Yasuho, which is precisely what ended up happening. I think I will like it more once it's animated, and I know not to expect much related to part 7 up until the end. The beginning part of part 4, where there was no main antagonist, was actually what got me into JoJo in the first place. After I dropped the other parts a few episodes in, after part 4, I enjoyed rewatching everything from the start again and started reading after part 6 and reread some arcs of previous parts.
>>291705232Why is he being sarcastic in this situation
>>291705747looking for a manual to purge the water from the sub is less important than stopping MORE water from getting in and Dragona is literally the only person who can do that.
>>291705669it would be "Waiter Silver Platter" going by the absolutely horrible localizations in SBR
>>291705660He didn't swim so good, who wants to try next?
I think John rod is unironically what i'm looking most forward to seeing animated for Jojolands, it'd be intriguing to see how they would adapt him since he's quite unlike any stand we've seen before. That and the breaking bad scene from way back
It was short but it was good, don't know why people are bitching. There's a chapter next month too.
>>291706196John Rod sound design be likehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDLmYZ5HqgM
>>291705912IF I TAKE THAT MASK OFF, WILL YOU DIE?!
>>291699192>1000th chapter on the anniversary (december).What's gonna happen...
>>291708475A normal chapter with some celebrations of JoJo, maybe some new drawings by Araki to have all 9 JoJos together.
>>291700609The BEST Joestar
When will Howler return?
>>291709178Toward the end of act 2 would be my guess. Depending on things he shows up to take out Barbara Ann while Jodio was out dealing with the glowies. Or more likely he shows up during the big bad's fight to try and steal a lava rock or something.
>>291705838I would have called them Lonely Me and Boom of the Tomb. Also there should be no problem in naming Oyecomova as is and naming his stand Miritmo instead of Tic Tac Boom.
When are characters gonna start dying?
>>291709574We're not even halfway in yet, Jodio hasn't even had his growth yet.
>>291709178We will see him return as Punished Howler and he will have evolved his stand into Eclipse 88
>>291705838It's definitely someone else doing the names than Part 6's localization, right?
>>291708475Jodio will start spinning his rain.
>>291700782Plugging Dragona's holes!
>>291710503Jodio are you listening? I can only say this once...
>>291710503>>291710734Since spin is a canon mechanism in this world, it'd be hilarious if Jodio uses it with November Rain once, but doesn't really understand what he did (he just notes how he observed his rain spinning, looked beautiful, etc) and then thinks nothing of it ever again
>>291700609Jodio trying to explain this to Jotaro in the next crossover (then again it looks like the harpoon only destroyed the device and didn't get lodged in the dolphin, if I'm interpreting the post-SHIIIZA panel correctly).
>Tomb of the Boom and Boku no Rhythm weren't named until JoJoveller>both are just using the same reference as their userAraki didn't give a FUCK about naming these stands, did he? Weird that he put in the effort to design their punch ghost, when Mountain Tim and Johnny's stands were just a rope and some fingernails at the time.
>>291711249He had a bunch of irrelevant jockeys and horses to name. He didn't have time.
>>291711249He was still playing around with the new rules and concepts at the time I guess.>>291711192The arrow is at an angle in the last panel with the dolphins. Its away from the fin and didn't make contact.
>>291693512i really dont like the hamon beat guy. the fanbase was originally some pretentious types but they are atleast knew their stuff. dudes feel like one of these HXH fanboys that drop the kayfabe at the mention of Hisoka X CHrollo
>crying about some twitter morondumb faggot
>>291712174His debunking araki forgot series is pretty good, or just generally when he's only giving out facts/explanations rather than his opinions. Though it falls apart a bit when he tries to justify a bunch of the dropped shit from jojolion
>>291693512at least we arent doing powerfaggotry
>>291710734Your "rain" is not actually "rain..." but instead it is lines that "spin"
>>291712322Hamon Beat is like ''retcons are bad'' unlike the earlier niggas that embraced. but i think they are english or literary majors so they had a different view than a fanboy doing a lot of research deflecting criticism against his favorite work. i mean, is fine. but isnt the kind of content that i will watch for my leisure. i feel that after JJBA 1 got popular jojo fanbase lose a lot of its edge that it had when we only had duwang, OVA and JJHOF
>>291703281It's way better than Jojolion so far.I consider Jojolion a 4/10, I'd rate Part 9 a 6.5/10 or 7/10
>>291709696People who think Howler isnt the final boss, are straight up retards He is Jodios FINAL BOSS and ULTIMATE ADVERSARY
>>291713155I remember when a certain character in Part 8 was supposed to be "the last boss", never mind Araki literally set up a race of evil ass cryptid people ahead of time.
>>291713155howler will become a jobro and they will take on the US goverment (again) only to have the main villain be a financial investor with a private island.
>>291693512What is JOJOLands about?I hated JoJoLion because every arc was aimless mystery box setup, also i hate his new stiff, "mouth always open", "The only emotion i know is mild Distress" looking ass faces
>>291713297Jojo (jodio) and his trans sister/brother (he calls her brother) are drug dealers (for like 2 chapters) and get hold of a lavarock that attracts the flow of money. It's like how fate acted in other parts, so they scheme a plot that is about scaming a rich landowner using that rock. It's fun.Its much more streamline then jojolion with clear goals and plot development.
>>291713297The JoJolands seeks to unearth JoJos deepest core mysteries surrounding miraculous gifts from the earth, from the perspective of our protagonist, this is simply a story about becoming rich, and to find oneself on the rise and the importance to take hold of those finite opportunities or gifts from nature, should it choose you. On the other half, the complete opposite is happening to the main villain of the story. He is a direct victim to the absurd, as misfortune seeks to unapologetically take his rightful kingdom away from him.Part 9 is nothing like Jojolion, which was genuinely a farce on Arakis part. I believe the stroke theories. He actually lost his touch for a momwnt. Fear not, he is cooking again, you need not worry of the JOJOLION STARE no longer
>>291713407>Its much more streamline then jojolion with clear goals and plot development.Thank god, i might pick it up, thanks
>>291705690God i miss when jojo looked like this
>>291713269Can't tell if howler jobro would be a kino twist or contrived...
howler will become an allymeryl mei is the main villain
>>291713155The final boss will be El Hermano de Charming Man who got amnesia, found the lava rocks and became filthy rich in the US.
>>291713612Huh?
>>291713612Tankobons?
>>291713612Araki's art fell off hard during part 8
>>291695135Ray of Light, he hasn't done a gay pop music name thus far.
Part 9 artstyle Dio
>>291695135Some random Queen song that doesn't fit at all
>>291712174I'm not a fan of youtubers like him who try rationalise every single thing. It doesn't work with JoJo's because just like how the character designs change over time (even from page to page), stand abilities and the plot changes over time as well. King Crimson is a great example of a stand ability legitimately being inconsistent and changing across chapters, yet youtubers like Hamon Beat make it seem like we are the dumbasses who don't understand Araki's fine attention to detail. Youtubers like him don't seem to truly understand that JoJo's—like all manga—is ultimately a weekly/monthly magazine product for teenagers made by a human being who is known to change his mind frequently (e.g. fugo). There are going to be flaws and changes and it's better to accept them rather than try to rationalise them away or distort Araki's true intentions to fit a fan headcannon. While Hamon Beat does a good job at disproving the widespread misconceptions held by newfag larpers, he ultimately only adds to the community's misconceptions by coming up with headcannon explanations to shit
I want the anime to skip jojolion. Can we make it happen? I don't fucking know what I'll do if we have to wait like 10 years to wait for that shite to be animated.Maybe just a 90 minute OVA that shows like, 2 or 3 good stand fights and then finishes with wonder of u. You could cut out like 97% of jojolion and it wouldn't impact the plot.
>>291714828Jojolion: The Movie
>>291714840It worked for Chainsaw Man's filler arc, it can work for Jojo's filler arc
The SBR ed has grown on me.
>>291714940Poor nigga got stockholmedfinna grow on these nutz
>>291714940You’re a fucking idiot you know that? I don’t get along well with you and I think you’re RETARDED
>>291714523Oh hey it’s Jodios father, Diojo Brando! Awesome, I’m a big fan of your- ACK!!!!!
>>291714523Imagine the sound
My guess is that the tattooed one is John Rod's user and the more shadowy one is 'That Person' Mundra was talking about.
>>291715114Jodio has absolutely no relation to Diego right?
Must suck knowing that drawing skills take a nosedive after the age of 45
>>291715588only if you stop cultivating them, i think up until at least ur 60s you are safe from any sorta skill decay in drawing barring any hand or back injuries, the reason certain artists fall off so dramatically is simply because they get used to "their way" of doing things which is what comes easiest and their art slowly drifts into just being the tropes they've practiced the most while half assing everything else (ie; sameface)
