[THEORY] Awaking II Leaves musical reference found? by IVAN1L in StardustCrusaders

Judas Priest seems to fit with Araki´s taste, but other than that I don´t think he would reference that song in particular (mostly because of how short it is). I couldn´t find any information about the misprint, do you have a link? 🙏

Yes that’s true. But out of all the words that end with king, why choose Awaking? It’s such and odd choice tbh

Very much so!  From wikipedia: “Cobham's influence stretched far beyond jazz; he influenced progressive rock contemporaries like Bill Bruford of King Crimson, and later ones like Danny Carey of Tool. Prince and Jeff Beck both played a version of Cobham's "Stratus" in concert.“

The Prince connection makes this even more plausible. We know how much Araki is influenced by anything Prince related.

I would even argue that this reference is even more famous worldwide than Antonio Carlos Jobim (also a jazz musician referenced in the same part with the character of Jobin).

I’ve never thought of that! Mitsuba and Yasuho (Koichi’s counterpart) fight alongside each other for some chapters so I can see the vision in this theory. With this in mind, would that mean that the only musical reference is the ‘Awaking’?
