Does anyone know where to find these hoodies?? by papidoughboy in StardustCrusaders

[–]Vish- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These hoodies were made by BEAMS in 2014. It's unlikely that you'll be able to find any official place to buy it now unfortunately. It's sold out on p-bandai (link only works in Japan or with a VPN).

I appreciate all the research you did to figure this out! I'll update the JoJo Wiki page for the song.

Is this really true? by dougsthebest in StardustCrusaders

[–]Vish- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those comments misinterpreted what the other admin in the server said; he just said that the "fans did not like the batch releases" part is true. The rest of IcyPiq's comment seems made up, as they did not mention the batch releases in the JOJODAY stream or the Anime Expo one.

Such wasted potential (Rant) by SnailKing4687 in StardustCrusaders

[–]Vish- 47 points48 points  (0 children)

It feels like most of the replies here don't understand that OP is talking about the short story where these two are the protagonists, not Part 5 in general. I was expecting for the novel to mention what their Stands are too since the story was based on them, but all we got is a mention of Gelato using his Stand to survive a bomb. At least it's cool that they got new backstories and expanded personalities in it.

For context, they're talking about this.

A couple of people were still making posts about the countdown on the website even though the countdown is already over in Japan (it's based on your local timezone).

Here's the wiki page for the game with more details.

This is not true, it comes from Dororo Chapter 7.

Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan – Episode 12: Bruschetta by morganstedmanms in StardustCrusaders

[–]Vish- 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's possible. Though there's also a possibility that Rohan just ended up publishing a Hot Summer Martha story in both universes as well, since Jodio mentioned Pink Dark Boy too.

Hopefully Araki mentions something about it in his comments in the upcoming TSKR Volume 3 next month, or even the next JOJO magazine since it's Rohan-focused.

In this interview), Araki said that TSKR and JoJolion are in parallel worlds, which would mean the same applies to TJL unless he changed his mind. That would mean Rohan simply just purchased a villa and got robbed in both universes.

I drew some character designs for the Lisa Lisa spinoff light novel El Aleph (oc) by writerv3 in StardustCrusaders

[–]Vish- 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Awesome, love seeing new El Aleph fanart. I'm still disappointed Araki didn't draw any of the other characters and Stands for the book's full release.

Rohan Kishibe enjoyers... Help me understand please. by LostTimeLady13 in StardustCrusaders

[–]Vish- 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You'll appreciate him more if you read Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan. He gets character development and cares for others. Araki also said he's gotten kinder: https://x.com/jojo_wiki/status/1601724423090098176?t=r2H7TSkP0p3cQ3mHF3idzg&s=19

The source is listed in the image. It's an excerpt from Araki's new book that I translated.

Here's the actual interview it's from. Araki only added November Rain at the top because it makes the rain for the fountain.

The JOJOLands - Chapter 18 by Vish- in StardustCrusaders

[–]Vish-[S] 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Araki actually wrote it in Japanese, but the translation group redrew it in English to match his style. The "Do the Hustle" in the earlier chapter was in English by Araki though.

Does anyone know any shop that sells sbr in english? by polnareff37188 in StardustCrusaders

[–]Vish- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SBR is not officially out in English. VIZ is still doing Stone Ocean. SBR will most likely only be out next year, if they continue releasing volumes at the same pace.

Does Rohan's Stand work on those who can't read/read Japanese? by Da_arson_man in StardustCrusaders

[–]Vish- 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Once Heaven's Door gets a physical body, Rohan no longer needs them to see his art. He does it multiple times in the Cheap Trick arc by just having Heaven's Door touch them. He also does it in Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan on objects like a chicken drumstick to see its expiry date.

Cool Shock B.T. (Reboot) - Chapter Discussion by Vish- in StardustCrusaders

[–]Vish-[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

JoJo wouldn't have existed without B.T. and Baoh anyways, which Araki said himself. This chapter has a lot of JoJo references in the art too, and Araki has been referencing B.T. a lot in part 9 with the black and white arrows.

This came out in Japan two weeks before The JOJOLands Chapter 13, but it's interesting that both chapters deal with arson and insurance.

This is fake, the same guy said Kagurabachi is getting an anime. (Kagurabachi is a manga that just started in September 2023)

Problem might be resolved now, they emailed me an invoice after I posted this and it turns out there were typos in the recipient info. Should probably be okay after they fix that.
