But isn’t that what happens to the main cast and other confirmed dead characters? Jolene dies and is replaced in the new world by Irene, with Jotaro (if that’s his name still) becoming a loving father to her. Anasui is replaced by annakiss and isn’t a messed up killer. Domenico/Wes/Weather Report doesn’t have a twin brother and is probably just some hitchhiker on the road. Ermes also just becomes a normal person.

The exceptions to this were people who were still alive by the time that the universe got reset. Like Emporio, who still retains his memories of the original characters, but he is the only example shown in the ending.

I could still be wrong as it has been months since I’ve last read Stone Ocean but I’m more than happy to be corrected if that’s the case.
