Why Araki Reset JoJo's Bizarre Adventure

[@deltalord6969]

We all know the reason why part 6 had the timeline reset was really just because you can never truly escape a Florida prison without there being true consequences. Florida always wins one way or another.

This is actually a smart decision on how to solve the issue of power creep. With stands that can influence time from stopping time, erasing time, and then fast forwarding time to the point where the universe resets, where do you go from there? How do you top that? How do you make a more powerful threat? Answer: You don't. You make a whole new world.

You said part six was constrained to “modern day” but in actuality it was even harder, because it was near future. It was set in 2011, and written in 2003.

[@anniekujo]

@@jman1080 You don't need to worry, part 7-9 have almost nothing to do with part 1-6 because Araki reset the universe and made a "new" jojo's from the start again (you could theoretically skip all parts and start from part 7 and you would still perfectly understand what is happening). We know that Jotaro is alive because everyone at the end of part 6 is alive with the exception of Pucci. With Pucci's death, the reset universe that he "created" vanished/got reset back to it's original but because Pucci is dead, it's just like he himself said when he reset the Universe the first time. If someone is dead they won't come over to the new universe and will get replaced by a new alternate version of this peron (like we saw with Jotaro and Jolyne). The same thing happend to Pucci (ironically), which caused the universe to exist with everything playing out the exact same way they happend before. Only with Pucci not existing and therefore all things that happend in part 6 didn't take place and also the JoJo curse broke which is the cause of Jolyne's name change to Irene, since there is no Pucci anymore meaning that every evil Dio left behind is gone from this universe and the Joestar's can finally live in peace. Imo perfectly fitting end to the series.

[@Scarshadow666]

True! And hidden within that sense of "normalcy", there can be undertones that something of the regular Jojo bizarre-ness is under the surface to make things seem purposely built to feel off and/or uncanny valley. Some of the best horror media often take what's normal, and slowly build up to revealing (or just hint at/insinuate) that things are actually really not normal as payoff. Imo, I'd write a Jojo part in a similar way to how an older episode of Doctor Who went, with the perspective of an innocent bystander/civilian without a Stand and/or Hamon/Spin (as well as not having knowledge of what either of those things are). From the perspective of a bystander, Stand use and/or Hamon/Spin use must look like something straight out of a Stephen King novel or something out of David Cronenberg's Scanners.

[@justarandomguywholikesanime]

A lot of people don't realize that in the ending of part 6, the universe didn't change or reset. It's still the same universe, with the same characters. The only difference is that Pucci never existed. Without Pucci's influence, Jolyne and the others could live a normal life. So the ending isn't even sad (despite that I still bawled my eyes), in fact, it's actually a happy ending. The only sad part is that no one remembers everything they went through except for Emporio, that's why Emporio was crying at the end.

It's kinda poetic actually

[@patches3]

[@ravin6771]

tbh, he didnt care about whether the universe was made anew, it was just one of the stepping stones he needed to "gift" humanity the power of precognition, and the fact that he was willing to accept his death after ensuring that this was the reality, which he screams at emporio seconds before his death, we know that his ultimate goal was to simply, allow every living being to predict, although also unable to avoid their own fate. This may have been because he was so devastated by his sisters demise at his own hands and comes to the conclusion with DIO that he would have been able to accept her death if he had been able to see what happened before it happened, and in his own words, be given "peace of mind". Who knows though, maybe he had other reasons, its pucci.

Steel Ball Run became my most favorite part out of all 8 parts. It felt new and refreshing with the introduction of new stand powers and the concept of the spin.

[@CoylerProductions]

Honestly I'd be perfectly fine if Part 9 was the final continuation Part of the series. I think we've reached a point where I'm just not sure how Araki can continue the series,continuing to create new/unique Stand abilities,characters and locations while also having that recognisable bizareness. Now don't get me wrong it would suck,JoJo is my favourite anime/manga so I'd be sad if it did end but I think it can be better to end in a comfy place (in this case JoJolion) rather than try and stretch everything thin (which I think was starting to happen with Stands by Part 6,despite some cool Abilities in Parts 6,7 and 8)

[@leetri]

I'd much rather he ends it conclusively at part 9 than just going on and on until he dies and leaving us with an unfinished story or a rushed and unsatisfying ending. But just because he ends the main story doesn't mean he can't continue doing Rohan one-shots (other spinoffs are acceptable as well). :)

I've just got into Jojo's this year by watching Phantom Blood and Stone Ocean only. Later on, a boy entered one of my classes and he was wearing these astonishing Jojo's hoodies and that was the time I thought to myself: "Well I should continue watching Jojo's." Surely , one of the best decisions I've taken in a long time.

[@curtis.e_flush]

There are so many interesting characters that survived parts 1-6 that I wish he'd tell their stories. Kars journey through space, Von Stronheims experiences through the 2nd World War, Hol Horse and Mondatta's career as bounty hunters, the mystery of Mikitaka from DiU, so much material to choose from rather than reboot the entire series.

[@SpideyTM]

It was better that way, everything from part 7 and 8 is MUCH better than parts 1-6, absolutely everything there is better and much better written. In Steel Ball Run and Jojolion it really seemed that Araki wanted to deliver a better written work with more importance in the story than just fighting

1:26 and people seem to think for some reason that SBR happens in the original "reset" universe, which it does not. Everything before Stone Ocean basically still happened, Phantom Blood up to Golden Wind still happened the way it did in the original universe (minus Pucci, but he doesn't really affect parts 1-5 so it's basically all the same)

[@profxjkun9482]

Araki's way of thinking is truly amazing. At the end of Stone Ocean, I simply could not imagine how he could possibly come up with a better story, the same way he thought of himself. But having read Steel Ball Run, I think it is more interesting than all 6 chapters combined.

As excited as I am to get to Part 7 cause I've heard so many amazing things about it, I'm sad to let JoJo go at the end of Part 6. Saying bye to all the characters -- specifically Jotaro I guess -- just makes me emotional. He's not my favorite character or anything, but with him and Jolyne gone it's like saying bye to Jonathan's legacy if that makes sense -- despite Johnny Joestar in the next part

[@Mizikame]

@@WayToDawn72 I couldn’t agree more and this is spot on as well!!! As far as the Story goes; the Calamity was an Enigma left over from Love Train’s Ability to Redirect Harm to anywhere else on Earth at Random. What Force of “Nature” do we think was the Other Side of that same Coin?? That would be Wonder of U. Also, Toru is officially defeated separately from Wonder of U; so that was a pre-existing separate Entity and was left on the Land of Higashikatas when Johnny Joestar used The Completed Holy Corpse to save his son. That’s also where the Wall Eyes comes from. P. S. - I love your Username Oblivion Keyblade is best Keyblade! 😸✨

As a person who is creating a story myself and attempting to make a card game as well realizing that you have peaked in your creativity is definitely one of the most terrifying things because you feel that you cannot improve anymore and cannot make something cooler and better. I previously made an attempt to make a card game before the one I'm working on but I ended up falling victim to the idea of "recreate what was already made but better and make the previous form weaker than the new thing." So I had to scrap that and make a whole new one.

[@prikols2138]

I'm a guy, I rarely drop a tear, but this ending made me drop a single one, this is the end of an era, this is the end of the jojo's universe and a start of another one.

The characters were made amazing, the story telling was absolutely gorgeous and, well I guess even the stands can reach their limits! In the moment of time I feel really sad, but I trust in the creators abilities to make something amazing once more. R.I.P to the old jojo's, welcome the newcomers!

I am definitely interested in the series continuation. I am especially curious about the setting part 9 will take place in. Considering the fact that Jojolion happens in 2011-2012 (based on Norisuke IV's age), where Stone Ocean ended the original timeline, Araki has relatively little options when it comes to characters and relationships to previous parts if Jojolands doesn't take place in the future.

It was a terrible ending and makes no sense. Emporio one of the weakest characters defeats the main villian in like 2 seconds at the end. The new world thing makes no sense either. Like why would they not all remember each other or why would some have different names?

[@swiggydswirl330]

@@craftingcameron8636 It's called quantum physics and string theory. Pucci literally explains everything as it's happening, you kind of have to be paying attention to get it. Go look up Hamon Beat's video that either explains the ending or the heavens plan as he does the best job explaining it. Basically, since Emporio killed Pucci before MiH was finished, they were forced back to the original timeline where MiH was never activated, and Pucci never existed. Meaning the significance behind Jolyne having the Jo- in her name like all the other protagonists has now changed to something else. Since she is no longer destined to fight villains like the other protagonists, signifying the end of this bloodline battle. Nobody remembers anyone because they all met in the prison. Without Pucci, most of them would have never gone to prison. However, since MiH didn't complete, the souls of the original characters were not deleted forever (as contrary to when we see a completely different Jotaro and Jolyne in the prison that Emporio is shocked to see). It made sense to me the first time after I read it, this part is far more intelligent than the other parts so you actively have to follow the story (which I know many JoJo fans hate). Emporio only won cause he made Pucci change his own fate by pushing Weather's entrusted disk into himself. The fact you didn't understand something is on you, not the writing. If you know anything about higher dimensional theory, Pucci basically just forced everyone into the 4th dimension where there is no free will and everything that will happen has already happened.

Honestly I felt that D4C’s ability really helped tie into the parallel but seperate worlds thing, showing that multiple versions of people exist in different realities, even to the point of having a different stand (dio from scary monsters to the world).

Nah personally JoJo shines at real locations. It gives the characters a lot more personality that way. For example how Jotaro is a 80s kid and probably knows a lot of bands from that time and how Joseph is racist to Japanese people due to living through WWII (I know being racist isnt a good thing but personality can be both negative and positive) or how Josuke is ridiculed for having an old-fashioned hairstyle in the 90s. Jolyne referencing movies and stuff like that. Its like a capsule of that time period being represented in JoJo's. Its also fun that the story takes place in a real life city or countries that actually exists. How we can visit the colosseum and think back to both the ending of part 5 and 2. A futuristic part would be completely unknown, no real life references nor locations. Its really cool knowing that Joseph and Jotaro know and listen to Al Yankovic etc. but in a cyberpunk future it'd be completely detached from reality.
