JoJolion: A Lovable Bloated Mess 

as the 13th person to read jojolion i salute your efforts

Jojolion is so deeply unhinged that the "Bizarre" in "Jojo's Bizarre Adventure" comes off as an understatement; from start to finish, it feels like the world's most emotional fever dream.

It's a sad state of affairs when Araki managed to write a NAZl that was more likeable than Joshu.

"Blue Lagoon has the ability to turn anyone into the average One Piece fan" that shit had me dying of laughter

JoJoLion is my favourite part of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure and I cannot thank you enough for this video. You put all my thoughts into words whilst also being incredibly entertaining and I hope your RU-vid career goes far

Jojolion anime adaptation will make this part a masterpeice. Just watch this space. A lot of things will just translate better in moving characters. -The creepiness of WOU -the romance between josuke and yasuho -the tense horror factor of calamity and objects moving on their own -SNW GB being a badass wormhole on demand -plus the quirky stand abilities were sometimes too complex for still images

how the actual frick is this phenomenal editing not being awarded by atleast 100K views

i love that in the cover art, araki depicts Josuke as being the Reference-man himself. Dude has Lucky Lands hand symbol (AKA jotaro's symbol) on his hat, an anchor strangely similar to Josuke's (4) anchor thingy, and his shirt has "JoJoJoJoJo", "OraOraOraOraOraOra" and "WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYY" in it. Like, dude, I know, I AM reading JJBA, you don't need to remind me of that.

reading jojolion monthly as it was coming out was wild, the amount of theorycrafting, fan content, memes, stupid edits, it really was something i looked forwards to every month, even towards the end when the story became a mess it was still super engaging to discuss what even was going on with other fans of the series

I wish Jojolion was more Slice of Life focused. After Vitamin C, we needed a reset. Leave rock human fights to happen only occasionally so they are a bigger blindside attack, just like Vitamin C was. Something like Wonder of U and Tooru works better in that format too. 'Unfornate Events' doesnt need a stand battle really, and yet Araki kinda forced it to be one. Johnnys life falling apart seemingly for no reason was a better execute of Calamity than.... Josuke and company tripping over everything while chasing an old man for 2 years. Cus the entire fight of Wonder of U eats up any chance for Tooru really be any character at all. The most we learn about him is pretty much by the end of the fight.... Which is the opposite of satisfying. Cus we want to know about a villain, rather than just be told '(x) IS BEHIND IT ALL!!'

Holy shit man, incredible editing/visuals and an amazing message with funny and insightful dissection of many of the most important parts of Jojolion and what it means to its fans. This video easily deserves several orders of magnitude more views than it has.

Dam, the amount of work that was put in this video is insane! Huge props and very entertaining 👏

damn bro I watch a lot of jojotube and you are out here putting out good videos, good thoughts, good jokes, mad respect, gotta love jojolion enjoyers -- there are dozens of us

Man this was beautiful, you´re not only making a video about my second fav Part and praises it and gave valid criticism to it that i first didn´t saw but also left a very good message into that video. To still enjoy the flaws that you fav a series has. Bleach is my fav animanga after JoJo´s and i know that the ending was unfortunately due to Kubo poor health but i still fw it alot. You´re kinda the reason that i love Bleach so goddamn much and why it always have a special place in my heart.You´re one of the greatest youtuber that if not the greatest that left a sub and i think you should gain more attention to that afford you always put it brah anyways don´t overwork yourself and have a good one

Wow, this video has such awesome editing and quality! And final thought is exactly the best position to see jojolion from, it's not perfect but it doesn't matter when you have so many things to enjoy in it. I hope this video will find it's way in algorithm because so many more people should see this awesome work!

THIS GUY JUST DROPPED THE BEST SUMMARY OF JOJOLION & JOJO IN GENERAL AND WE THOUGHT WOULDN'T NOTICE. IT'S EXTREMELY CRIMINAL FOR THIS VIDEO TO BE UNDERRATED AS HELL. You didn't only summed up its strengths but also gave a sensible criticism to this underappreciated JoJo part. There was absolutely nothing I was against anything appraised or criticised in this love letter of a video to JoJolion. Although it fails to stand on equal grounds with its predecessor SBR, it's still meant to be a JoJo part in its own. JoJolion is my second favorite installment after Stone Ocean and I'm glad I was able to find someone equally respective of it. You gained a new subscriber, buddy!

The editing all the way though was stunning I mainly had the video on while doing class work but when ever I looked over at the video I was stunned glad your back I’ve never really gotten into jojo but I can see why it has a cult following now welcome back king ibi

I can't wait for 2099 when we finally get the first episode of the Jojolion adaptation

Jojolion reader #14 checking in, I feel like you could describe all of JoJo as an extremely long lovable mess, but pt 8 really turns that up to 11. Props to you for making this video for the dozens of us who have read pt 8 now. Also who you playing in sf6?

Jesus fucking christ the editing is so good how did I miss this for 7 months and why doesn't it have more views. Even if this video didn't echo so much of my love and hate for JoJolion (it does) I'd still enjoy it so much

just wanna say, as a fan of your channel since the bleach upload (before it got taken down and had to be reuploaded) and constantly reccomended this channel to friends of mine cause of how little you been recognised, your videos have been goated as hell, keep it up, this jojolion video is your best yet the editing has improved so much

Always nice to see high quality Jojolion content. (Also the use of the Go Beyond intro is amazing)

I feel like Araki knew it would be hard to have a good main villain for this part after the last two, so he made him more of a "force" than an actual character, that being said, Tooru is still the epitome of rock people and he works well for a villain that's a rock human thematically, but he is definitely boring at times. My main issue with Tooru is that he didn't get revealed as a character sooner, it could have been cool if the main cast knew him through Yasuho earlier in the part and it get revealed later that he's a rock human pulling the strings.

peak video as always, with great analysis and incredible editing, humour and heart. Hope you get a bigger following soon

Good shit! Very well put together, pacing, script, it's all beautiful, this was great to watch. Thx

excellent video! i find myself often at a loss for words trying to describe my love for jojolion, despite it’s glaring flaws. This video did it for me! Congrats on a banger video

Yea I love this video bro. the editing is suburb. I hope you never give up and keep making bangers!!

Amaxing video! Me and my friends have been reading jojolion as it gradually came out over the last 6+ years, so I completely understand the confusion caused by going over all of it in a week. You'll probably change your mind on a few things over time as we all did I'm sure

my fave part is jojolion (depsite its flaws) and i absolutely loved this video and i absolutely agree with your point about vitamin c arc. its truly a masterpiece that i havent got off my mind since i read it almost a year ago. its full of emotion and symbolism and its just so great

Great video broooo. Your presentation makes me wanna read JoJo(only watched 2 parts). And this part looks fun. Also the last part about loving something "despite" is so resonating. We don't need a logical complicated reason to love something everytime. It's a small thing you brought up but really helps validate many people and make their day awesome and worth it(including me). I was so excited by yesterday's post about new video. And you delivered. Good shit. 👃👃

on of the best editings that i have seen so far

I'm not the typa guy to comment a lot on youtube but damn that was a great video. I didn't even expect to watch it all the way through the end but ended up finishing without it even feeling like 40 minutes. Keep up the great work dude! You got my sub for this one!

i'm still reading steel ball run but a 40 minutes video from you was worth the spoilers for jojolion. The editing is top tier and i really think i should read faster to catch up now that you hyped it, despite the flaws you talked about. I was really excited when on IG I saw that you'd release a video today and it did not miss! Good job dude, I'm really hoping you grow bigger and bigger as a youtuber, you deserve it

Your editing is so awesome. I hope you find success on this platform, you deserve it

Jojolion is the only part that truly felt "bizzare" to me. What do you mean most of the plot revolves around hypothetical fruit cultivation techniques for medical fruits horded by a secret culture of silicon based humans.

Just became the #21 JoJolion reader. And this video is one of the best that I've seen that involves JoJo at all. I love the way you described everything and the message you share. Huge props to you, I hope you keep doing better and better!

Dawg this is so well edited it might be honestly the best jojolion video I've ever seen. I'm jealous of your video making ability

That's banger my friend Keep goin'❤

Another work of art. Well done ibi👏🏾

Fire edits Fire essay Fire script Fire delivery Fire video

ok your presentation style and editing is really cozy and funny, will be subscribing 💪

Finished the vid and I gotta say it was fucking amazing. Also your music choice for ur vids are immaculate

Thank you for delivering us this MASTERPIECE

I cannot thank you enough for this video. After finishing the magnum opus that was part 7, I had heard many mixed reviews regarding part 8, which stated that it was dull (??), convoluted (???) and inconsistent (?!) which frankly made me even more intrigued. In retrospect, your analysis pretty much sums what I and the other… 10(ish) people who have read JoJolion feel. I can definitely say that I enjoyed a lot but really wished to have seen more of Tooru. Great video!

Amazing video, fantastic editing, well scripted and narrated, bravo very good show I enjoyed it

Ngl i dropped jojo halfway through part 3 😂 but now i think ill give it a chance. Anyway welcome back man, hope whatevers annoying you sorts itself out all the best 🙏🏽

Just finished part 7 this summer and now your video gon make me binge part 8 so I can watch this Michelin star dash of a video brb. also love u ibi glad u back low-key thought u died 💀

shocked you dont have more subs. fire video, dude!

Amazing video.

I wish we could be friends🤧🤝 The music like "Better in the dark" that you use, the passion you have for Jojo's, and your humour is so fun😭

As to an explanation as to why rae knew about spin. I think there's a great video explaining it. I never questioned it since he's a plant appraiser and nature has the golden ratio so that combined with josukes line. Or some shit like that

As someone who is reading manga for the second time these days, and suddenly this video came up while I was browsing RU-vid... I appreciate your effort, as that person said... You know what? No...i don't appreciate it... I love it very much... I love how you analyze the chapters, characters, events, plot...praising and hating them while throwing in some memes here and there with a touch of humor...as for the last part of the video...it was great...and it hit me...in a way...I think it sums up my relationship maybe not just with jojolion... maybe with the entire series... I don't even know

The editing in this was fire, and the memes absolutely sent me. Reading Jojolion as it came out must’ve been a wild time, but considering the fallout I’ve heard of from people who read the second half in real-time (concerning matters like the bodybag flash forward, ambiguity over Jobin’s death, and the rock insects) it’s probably a part best enjoyed as a binge-read. And as the 25th reader of Jojolion, I enjoyed it a ton and rank it as my third favorite, citing much of the same positives and negatives (though I’m a bit softer on the second half and I think Jobin served his role about as well as Diego). Can’t describe it as well as you did though, your script was both poetic and hilarious. I really do love how “human” this part feels. Despite some of them having low screentime, the existence of the Higashikatas as a family really gave the conflict of the plot a different feeling and I love how Josuke slowly gains their trust and cooperation (Norisuke especially, best dad went through so much). The ending page with them at the table feels so earned, and Joshu telling Josuke to “just pick one, man” felt like even he had accepted Josuke as a family member, very heartwarming. The thematic writing definitely got a bit too abstract for my understanding towards the end, but one thing I love about the final battle is that Josuke and Yasuho both fight Tooru in different places at the same time. Josuke fighting Tooru’s hold on the future in the form of the head doctor, and Yasuho confronting and overcoming her past by fighting the Tooru she used to know, and entering the flow of calamity with Josuke so they can beat him as one. Very poetic, I think. What you said at the end, to love something “despite” is a wonderful thing. It’s how I feel about the part 6 anime. Yeah the animation was rough at times and there was a lot of CGI and reused music, but if it were really a bad anime then I don’t think part 6 would’ve immediately become my favorite part upon watching it. And I feel blessed to have the opportunity to love the experience of viewing it and knowing it. It offered something special and unique, and the same goes for Jojolion. I can’t wait for what Araki cooks with The Jojolands. The first 10 chapters have already been so exciting.

this video desperately deserves more views! i love part 8 while its not my favorite i love the characters alot

Thank you for the vid :) ❤

Amazing vid, I think you told me you were going to make a jojo's video and you didn't disappoint

Love this video!

Rewatched this vid and my brotha this gotta be one the best vids I’ve seen on RU-vid especially that last section shit was magnificent W

this has got to be the best and funniest jojo video ever. Jojolion is slowly becoming my favorite part. it’s already top 3

As The 14th person soon to read more Jojo, I love the music in this one. Lotta' Persona 4 showing up, even the menu sound effects!

ANOTHER BANGER 🔥🔥🔥

Good stuff and incredible editing 👍

THIS WAS SO GOOD T__T Jojolion is one of my fav parts (tho every part of jojo is my fav part) and I agree with so many points in this review.. the highs of jojolion honestly make up for its lows for me and this review makes me feel emotional just thinking about gappy's growth

I fully get what you mean when reading jojolion. I felt the same with the whole part buy still equally enjoyed every moment of this beautiful thought provoking bloated trainwreck. Gave me a better view of the world to power through the worse of it since miracles will eventually follow after the calamity. Peak editing 10/10 keep up the awesome work

IBI THE GOAT IS BACK i see why its been a minute since the last upload 40 minute banger is crazy

You’re such a great RU-vidr hope you get to the milli

Criminal amount of views for the effort you put into this video!

Wake up babe ibi dropped

Love this ❤

IBI DROPPED WE UPPPPPPP

As the third person to read Jojolion it gets better on a reread or two lol

Just rewatched this and touched myself 👍

Bro cooked with this video. Hell yeah. Good shit

He’s back!!!

I’ve never been able to edit or record a video essay like this, but if I could make one for JoJolion, it’d probably be something like this… Thank u for making it a reality

Jojolion should get more love, it's amazing honestly i loved it so much

IBI YOU THE GOAT FOR THIS MAN

NO WAY there's a jojolion video in this year, so much good ❤️🙏.

ayo. In ten years when jojo lands finishes. you make a video on it at this level of quality. i’ll personally give you $1000 lmao

I just finished Jojolion yesterday and I had so many thoughts about it, but no way to clearly convey what the hell I went through in a similar span of time... I was intrigued, I was fumbled, I was greatfully delighted and amused and I felt like this was perhaps as cohesive as SBR could be if it had so many sideplots. In a way, I was reminded of Vento Aureo: a lot of threats looming all the time, an almost non-stop pace and a crazy convoluted ending due to an antagonist's superabstract ability and a weird flashback at the last moment. It's crazy. Like, that family went through some of the craziest spawn of events with losses and killing attempts and property destruction, but then people are talking about how the family curse was broken? It got me mixed feelings. I was interested in hearing someone talking about the themes tackled on Jojolion and, dawg, you did a crazy compelling video that gave a lot of food for thought! Great editing as well!

PHENOMENAL editing,, also appreciate the Persona 4 soundtrack. Although I feel JoJoLion simultaniously felt both too long and not long enough, I still gotta give it to it - certianly *the* most unique JoJo part.

"Zoo wee mama goblin brained spectacle" is the best thing I've ever heard in my life 😂

Bro, legit appreciate the love on my second favorite part and my forever favorite streamer. Joycon boyz for life

Jojolion is My Favorite Part (I still need to finish it) And it has the Coolest Part Name in My Opinion Something Something Part 8 Joke Here Your Editing Style is Outstanding and this Video was still Amazing, Amazing Job!

It’s still my favorite part even with its flaws yasuho is one of my favorite characters in all of jojo but great video

IBI IS MY GOAT RAAAAAAAA But fr jojolion was a fun initial read and I read it as it ended I did a reread like a month ago and it holds up to part 7 for me

Happy to hear a perspective of someone who read it all at once. As a member of someone in that collective fever dream nice to have something make sense.

40 MINUTE IBI UPLOAD LETS GOOOOO

It feels nice to be apart of the 20 people that actually read jojolion

One of the only 10/10 videos on this website. A magnum opus. Loved it from start to finish

I LOVE YOU IBI❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

This video is amazing, and if you yourself made the manga edits, theyre the best ive seen

I need to reread this peak

Holy fuck you need more views. And now I think I need to reread Jojolion lmao, you instilled in me that same admiration for it as such a weird, stylish, monolithic brainfuck that I felt before I even started reading it last year. I've heard it said you have to appreciate something's flaws to appreciate it as a whole, and I think the way you ended the vid compliments that sentiment perfectly. Sure, Jojolion ain't perfect, and it crams a lot especially into its very exhausting end. But damn, you can see just how ambitious Araki got. Even if it magnificently paid off in some spots and double pump shit the bed in others. It just shows how Araki's still moving on a different level from every other mangaka in the game, I'd say. I'm glad this video exists.

Nice video my man can you do more jojo content i love this video

This is definitely one of the Jojolion videos of all time

Just finished Jojolion I love you

Great video I hope you keep it up for Part 9

This video is very pretty, and well presented!

Jojolion was magnificent! It was indeed flawed, but I believe each part is better than the last in it’s own way, and Jojolion’s Cast, Setting, and Vibe had me! The things I hate about it: 1. Spin’s inclusion 2. Kyo/Kei’s Death 3. TOORU(Joke, though I do hate him) Other than that, I think it was grand! Jojolion was perfect in bizarreness! It is precisely what I was looking for in this series! Completely Bizarre! Couldn’t ask for more!
