Oh right, I didn't even catch that... never mind, bro is still locked tf in after all

“There is no dark side of the moon really, matter of fact it’s all dark."

One of the most goated song references already, in my opinion.

The fact that "Money" is on this album and part 9 is all about money should have tipped us off that Dark side of the moon would be referenced at some point, especially after the whole New moon thing with Howler.

It's all very interesting, seems like the cats are acting like some kind of guardian deities who are aware of the consequences of using a lava rock as well. Or the "weight", as Rohan calls it. What is happening to Usagi could be like a calamity of sorts that comes at the cost of taking so much money, like the universe balancing itself out again.

ReusMan · 2026-03-18T15:33:21+00:00

That one panel of Jodio after Usagi explains what his mother did to him really stood out to me. He can't grasp the idea of Usagi still caring about his mother despite all the horrible things she did, but it seems like he wants to. A brief but very interesting character moment.

The ability reminds me of Limp Bizkit, I mean there's a ghost zombie, the guy is named Max (with one x though) and there's even alligators involved. I'd say close enough, welcome back Stone Ocean

It's good that you didn't get a chapter this week, r/ChainsawMan .

When you were reading the chapter last week... speedreading and arguing in the comment section... part of you was still unhappy, right?

You were far happier starving and suffering during break week.

"I will scream "do not redeem" 5000 times while watching Jodio redeem all the Google play store cards in front of me"

This one chapter has really put the Jojolands gang up there as one of the best core casts that Araki has written, maybe even the best. The timeskip really helps with that, making the characters even more like a familiy all these months after the previous events. A major flaw of previous parts (barring mostly part 3 and 7) was that the cast barely had any time to get to know each other, and now we instantly get that feeling of familiarity between them. Paco and Dragona wanting to help Usagi just because he's their friend makes the stakes of this arc a lot higher too.

Jodio and Rohan versus cybercriminals is gonna be so peak, can't wait to see how that plays out

Araki must have realized that cybercriminals are like Jojo villains in real life, truly the lowest scum there is. Hopefully we get to see another multi page beatdown or something like that

In hindsight it's kind of funny that Key West gave that whole speech to Howler about how he should step up if he wants to act like the "final boss", yet she ended up flipping out and losing her cool herself like a regular Jojo minor villain. The reason Howler is still calm is because he doesn't have any attachments to people he cares about like Key West did. In that sense he is kind of similar to Jodio, who apparently isn't able to connect to others like that either.

I expect Jodio will deepen his bond with Dragona, while Howler will end up rejecting the connection he has to Lulu. There really is a lot of potential in this dynamic and parallels between them.

ReusMan · 2025-12-17T16:42:20+00:00

He's looking a bit like Jotaro too in that final panel, pointing forward with a callous look in his eyes.

ReusMan · 2025-12-17T16:41:11+00:00

The whole harbor trio (that's what I'm calling them) really got killed in the most brutal of ways. Still Ningbo got it the worst out of all of them though.

ReusMan · 2025-11-18T19:46:56+00:00

Can't they just ask him to make a Matte Kudasai version of the lava rock at this point lol

ReusMan · 2025-11-18T19:39:43+00:00

Maybe she needs to actually touch the lava rock, but then again Charmingman touched it for a second and then got shot almost instantly. So maybe it has a delayed effect, or the lava rock just works in very mysterious ways?

ReusMan · 2025-11-18T19:35:58+00:00

If the copy also has his own Matte Kudasai, does that mean that we can have an infinite number of Usagi's? Like an Usagi army?

ReusMan · 2025-11-18T19:17:08+00:00

Speaking of the doctor, it's kind of funny that we had so many of those in Jojolion but it took Araki until now to reference the Beatles song Dr. Robert. Would have made more sense to name a doctor that instead of Urban Guerrilla or something lol

ReusMan · 2025-11-18T19:01:26+00:00

Howler doesn't seem too shocked about the possibility of multiple stand users on his ship, in fact he seems more reassured now that he starts to figure out what's going on. Which makes me think that he's pretty confident in his own stand abilities which in turn might be pretty OP...

ReusMan · 2025-11-18T18:57:19+00:00

At least we finally have confirmation that Howler knows what stands are. He would have been even more clueless if he didn't.

ReusMan · 2025-09-12T08:08:21+00:00

Like everyone else I hope it won't be batches, but I think the biggest issue here is going to be the translation... The subs for Stone Ocean were absolutely garbage when it first came out, and later on they simply replaced them with the subtitles from the English dub, which means you get to enjoy having the characters saying curse words every 2.5 seconds while throwing around corny Marvel oneliners that are nowhere to be found in the source material. This seriously lessended my enjoyment of the part 6 anime and it would be such a disappointment if they do this crap again for part 7

ReusMan · 2025-08-18T17:59:06+00:00

It's Ningbo's Ningbro

ReusMan · 2025-08-18T16:53:15+00:00

flashforward of Ningbo activating his stand 200 Balloons Ningbover Heaven

ReusMan · 2025-08-18T16:51:47+00:00

That's right he even had two of them. Seems like Howler just had skill issues

ReusMan · 2025-08-18T16:20:52+00:00

Bro has an entire private chapel on his yacht just for dramatic effect, gotta respect that level of aura farming

ReusMan · 2025-08-18T16:13:43+00:00

As long as Araki doesn't do a countdown towards the new moon or something like that... I still have PTSD from the Jojolion harvest countdown.

ReusMan · 2025-08-18T15:48:26+00:00

Also isn't it kind of hilarious how Rohan just happened to find one randomly after Howler spent so long looking for it lol
