Now that the first episode of the season is out, I can finally comment on how hilariously intense the meeting of the Upper Moons was.
Like, we really watched (I, even paid money to see in the cinema) the equivalent of Akaza just taking the elevator to the office, pass by the recepcionist, get greeted by the one coworker he can’t fucking stand, get chewed up by the boss like every Monday and having to insist to his bitchass coworker that he’d rather die than go ‘hang out’ after work.
We really saw that but with an animation budget that’s off the charts.
I have like a third left of steel ball run and I also decided to rewatch battle tendency so guess who just witnessed their favorite blonde characters in both parts get killed today :D
Stupid diego brando
Trying out digital again
Let me cook guys, i think im getting the hang of this
#...269...why...
This is a scary monster appreciation post. I think people focus too much on him with the cracked face, just the tail, or full dinosaur. LOOK AT THIS THING! It encapsulates what Scary Monster is. Look at his weird hair. His nose-less face. The way it blurs the line between human and monster. Like gdvuawilfwsdfgyui i have no words for this. Scary Monster is definitely one of my favorite stands. <3
🐁🧸NEW YEAR'S GIFTS (3/3) JOHNNY AND GYRO... celebrating?💚🩵
A bit cheesy on my part, of course, but these drawings are set in my AU "Hey Jojo's". Since Johnny and Gyro don’t know each other yet, it’s not possible for them to wish each other a happy New Year, but that’s no barrier to making a symbolic drawing. Looking Up to You by Michel Wycoff feels like a great song to describe what Gyro and Johnny will feel when they meet for the first time. I could explain so much more, but it’s better if you give it your own meaning.
Happy holidays, everyone! Happy New Year—celebrate everything you’ve achieved this year, even if you only survived. Believe me, that’s a huge accomplishment! Thank you so much for supporting my project, for being interested in my work, and for helping create this little community that I hope will keep growing. Expect more from me in 2025 🥳 =( ‧ᴖ◡ᴖ)

Rereading Battle Tendency and I'm shocked by how little the fandom discusses the family dynamics. Speedwagon and Erina have different parenting styles, and that has a huge impact on shaping who Joseph is. Joseph was raised to be a little shithead!
Open to read more! 👇
From the very beginning of BT, it's established that Joseph's attitude is VERY different from Jonathan's. We're shown a flashback of Joseph's childhood.
When I first watched jjba, this scene surprised me. Joseph acts so aloof!! But now that I'm rereading it, I think Speedwagon told Joseph not to get involved beforehand. Or, as one of my followers on Bluesky mentioned, Joseph may have been acting like a brat in order to draw the robbers' attention away from Speedwagon.
Joseph snaps when the clothes Erina had given him get ruined. Joseph tells Speedwagon he'd do anything to protect them, as they're the only family he has.
From here on, Speedwagon is shown enabling Joseph's behavior. He's aware of Joseph's temper and bratty habits. But never once do we see Speedwagon scold or reprimand Joseph in any meaningful way, even when he's being reckless.
Speedwagon consistently responds in two ways. Giving Joseph a sideways glance or raising his voice...
"JoJo!" "JoJo..." "🥺" "😨"
In contrast to this... Erina is shown PHYSICALLY reprimanding Joseph when he steps out of line after he jokes about the implications of Speedwagon and Jonathan's relationship / Speedwagon and Erina's relationship (varies by translation)
However, Erina ALSO enables Joseph's behavior. But instead of Speedwagon's method of letting Joseph do whatever he wants, Erina guides Joseph on how to beat up a racist in public with STYLE. Joseph's sense of justice makes him wild & careless, so she teaches him how to stay in control while still doing the right thing.
Erina's background of an upper-class childhood, nursing career / teaching career, and her experience living as a woman in the 19th century shaped how she raised Joseph. Joseph inherited Erina's social intelligence, class, and kindness.
Speedwagon lived the majority of his life in the slums of London and was involved in organized crime. Speedwagon was also an oil tycoon. He's mastered the art of bartering. Joseph "inherited" Speedwagon's rebellious nature, street intelligence, and loyalty.
Joseph has a strong sense of justice, something ALL Joestars inherited from Jonathan.
But that sense of justice is what ultimately killed Jonathan and George. Erina and Speedwagon knew that Joseph was destined to get into trouble.
I believe that Erina and Speedwagon raised Joseph in such a way that he could survive the worst. And he did. Joseph is the only Joestar in the entire series that is shown to live into old age. He survived all that because of Erina and Speedwagon's love for him.
