The Forgotten Failure of Pannacotta Fugo 

He's definitely not a failure. He gave us PHF.

The thought of Fugo actually being the result of mass hallucination, and never actually existing, is so damn funny...

What if Fugo's name was Freako and rather than his stand being called Purple Haze it was called Twerkle Haze and it made everyone who inhaled the gas start twerking

Fugo is like that fever dream that was cool, but you woke up at the moment that it was getting genuinely interesting. And then that book is you trying to continue the dream by going to sleep again as fast as possible before you forget it forever

Fugo is definitely Diavolo's third personality

My Personal Head Canon is that when Araki had make the Fugo is a Traitor Plot that he would have replaced Cioccolata. Because both work with deadly Diseases as their Stands. I know that is far fetched but i personally believe that that is possible that Cioccolata was a Replacement for Fugo as a Villain.

we never saw fugo eating gabagool so there is no way he was really in passione and therefore was obviously just there getting inspiration for the hit show the sopranos that he would write later in his life

Panna cotta is really tasty. Cream, sugar, gelatin, and topped with something like berries, caramel, or chocolate. It's like ice cream without being frozen

fugo NEEDS a redemption we need to make him a reqiuem version of his stand

My take is that Fugo was going to take Ciocollata's place in the story. They have similar stands. Maybe the plot was going to be Fuho using purple haze throughout the city per the boss's orders, and eventually defeated by giorno with the 7 page muda, since Giorno became immune to the virus. I believe that Ciocollata was created as such an irredeemable bastard to contrast Fugo's more sympathetic take. Araki's whole deal was that had Fugo been an enemy, would have been too sad. So he made an enemy that would be ok to kill.

Fugo got the middle child treatment

"Fugo, you were named after poopoo."

Maybe fugo is the skibidi we made along the way

We know Fugo would’ve been cool since we see his potential in Purple Haze Feedback

Fugo: Leaves the group because he doesn’t wanna be hunted and obtain a hole through his stomach. Chewie: IMPOSSIBLE

5:28 I think it's also interesting to mention that the sound effect that we hear at the beginning of Fugo's theme is the same that we hear many times when Killer Queen is summoned by Kira

I really respect Araki in that he is fully accepting when he creates a boring character and just writes them out of the story. Most writers have way too big of an ego to admit to their mistakes like that

fugo lowkey reminds me of kobeni from csm. both characters who had interesting backstories and a lot of potential but got slowly erased by the author. also had like one fight in the whole fucking series.

damn, the editing gets better with every video. bro's gonna make a whole movie next

14:59 As an italian, I felt that

the fact fugo gets so much hate even today because araki decided to not make him a secret traitor the whole time is crazy, it honestly wouldve made part 5 way more interesting

Fugo was actually my favorite character when first started watching Part 5. Thought Purple Haze was amazing and just so cool. Wanted to see him get control over his anger then he just got fucking tossed to the side and I cried.

He was a really complex character, I think he deserved to have more screen time. I think his character was really interesting

I like that his theme is just biohazard warning alarm

I'd really recommend you to read Purple Haze Feedback if the character of Fugo interested you. There are some fan translations floating around the internet. The only thing is that his backstory there is explored in a different way (which I personally preferred) that from the anime, but if you ignore that detail, it might as well be considered a fitting continuation to Golden Wind

bro, pannacota (the dessert), is so good tho, it's like flan but more smooth

DavidPro should've made a Purple Haze Feedback adaptation.

5:28 His All Star Battle theme goes insanely hard though

0:40 The BCS ref 🤩🤩🤩

Fugo could’ve not been a failure and instead be could’ve been a big help

b.b..bu..bu-t avdol appears in steelball run!1!! 1:16

Should have gotten a Fugo, Risotto team up, purple haze plus, Metallica would have been terrifying.

my favorite jojo yt finally uploaded with my favorite jojo character

Btw I've read Jorge Joestar twice. I love this book, I seriously do. And PHF is genuinely fine, too, it's just that I do not enjoy part 5 as a whole. P.s. Jorge Joestar is simply the tornado of the author's imagination and his own metastyle established in his other books. For some reason you understand that this strange world he wrote abides his own rules, it's just that it is for some ungodly reason a JoJo book. Watch ID Invaded, the same scriptwriter and similar imagery and then try to look at Jorge while looking into its rules.

Not gonna mention the interview where Araki says that Fugo was an allegory to Judas? From the "GioGio's Bizarre Adventure Strategy Guide"

12:53 Fcking jumpscare, i am watching this at 2:11 am

13:37 risk of rain 2 music goes hard

honestly if araki was gonna scrap him betraying passione anyway then why not just add a few scenes where he actually does something worthwhile. have him defeat someone singlehandedly or show the actual power of his stand so that him leaving has meaning and it doesnt just feel like araki forget to write him a character arc and just decided to drop him. i hate this part so much cause it really was perfect up until the end.

when I see something about jojo I click immediately

3:30 panna cotta looks so good,, i can't believe you'd say that it looks disgusting ☹

I never knew that Fugo was meant to be a villian from the original plan, but knowing Araki, it didn't happened which surprised me

WILLY WAS THE GUY NARRATING THE QUOTE YOOOOOOO

5:55 i was NOT expecting for that comparision XDDD

If you want to see more Fugo action, along with PHF i recomend Golden Heart, Golden Ring. It's a light novel which was written in the early 2000s and takes place during Golden Wind, and Fugo is a major part of it

7:39 you lost the opportunity to call the professor raulzito

New Chewiedog1 video dropped, not even Garfield Cart, MY RANKING: 0/10

I really recommend checking out Jekyll & Hyde 5M as it did a pretty good job on expanding Fugo's manga personality without the whole pdfphile thing. Another one I would recommend is Judas Iscariot which follows the original plan of Fugo being a traitor.

fugo exemplifies everything i dislike about part 5. his only action is being the end to the best fight in the part, and obviously abaccio was the main focus of that fight anyways. fugo and narancia, partners in pointlessness

Aww yeah what a wholsome guy 3:02

6:45 I FELT ANGRY FIRST TIME WATCHING THAT OMFG IT MADE MY BLOOD BOIL

This is a certified passione classic

Wow i didn't know that purple haze feedback was not released in english. I am Italian so i read it im Italian obviously. Is worth reading just for having some more Fugo moments and character grows. The events of the story happens after part 5 and Fugo is forced by Mista tp track down and stop the drog dealer group of Passione. Wich still is active after the events of part 5.

Alright, listen up, because I’m absolutely done with all the unwarranted hate Fugo from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 5 gets. It’s honestly baffling how people can be so blind to his awesomeness. Fugo is, without a doubt, one of the most underrated characters in the entire series, and I’m here to set the record straight. First of all, let's talk about his Stand, Purple Haze. Are you kidding me? This Stand is freaking incredible! It’s one of the most deadly and unpredictable Stands in all of JoJo. The virus it releases is lethal in a matter of seconds, disintegrating anything it touches. And the way Fugo wields it is nothing short of genius. It’s not just raw power; it’s a weapon of mass destruction that requires intelligence and precision to use effectively. People act like just because it’s not flashy like Gold Experience or Sticky Fingers, it’s somehow less impressive. Well, newsflash: it’s not. Purple Haze is a nightmare for any enemy, and Fugo handles it like a pro. And can we please talk about Fugo’s backstory? He’s got one of the most tragic and compelling histories out of the whole group. He’s a child prodigy who had everything going for him until his rage got the better of him, leading to a life of crime. His struggle with his violent tendencies and the guilt he carries is deep and relatable. He’s not just some one-dimensional character; he’s got layers! His internal conflict adds so much depth to the story, and it’s infuriating how people overlook this. Oh, and for everyone who loves to point out that he “abandoned” the team, get over it! Fugo’s decision to stay behind was one of the most realistic and human moments in the series. Not everyone can just jump into certain death without hesitation. He made a rational choice, something that makes his character even more believable and relatable. His fear and doubts make him human, and that’s something to be respected, not criticized. Plus, have you read "Purple Haze Feedback"? Fugo’s arc in that novel is pure gold. It shows his growth and development beyond the main series, proving he’s not just some coward but a complex character who evolves over time. Fugo’s intelligence is another thing that’s criminally underrated. He’s a freaking genius, with an IQ of 152! He’s the brains of the team, often coming up with strategies and solutions that save everyone’s skin. His contributions to the group are vital, and it’s high time people started recognizing that. It’s not all about brute strength; sometimes you need brains to win battles, and Fugo provides that in spades. Let’s not forget his loyalty to Bucciarati and the gang. Despite his struggles and fears, he cared deeply for his friends. His moments of vulnerability show just how much he values them. People love to act like he didn’t care, but that’s just plain wrong. He stayed behind because he didn’t want to drag them down with his uncertainties. That’s a selfless act, and it takes a lot of courage to admit your own limitations. And can we talk about his design? Fugo’s look is iconic. The polka-dotted suit, the green hair-it’s all so unique and memorable. He stands out in a series full of flamboyant characters, and that’s saying something. His design is a perfect reflection of his chaotic nature, blending elegance with a hint of danger. So, to everyone who keeps hating on Fugo, I say this: open your eyes and appreciate the character for who he is. He’s not just some side character; he’s a crucial part of the team with a deep and meaningful story. Fugo deserves respect, not hate. If you can’t see that, then maybe you need to go back and rewatch Part 5 with a fresh perspective. Stop the hate. Recognize Fugo’s brilliance, his struggles, and his contributions. He’s one of the best characters in JoJo, and it’s about time people gave him the credit he deserves. Fugo is amazing, and no amount of misguided criticism will change that.

Bro gave me flashbacks with that eu4 music

I actually love feedback, because it feels a lot like a real story araki could tell, and a MUCH more natural conclusion for fugo’s character arc, I 100% recommend checking it out, there’s even audio book forms available with really good voice acting too.

It took you this long 😂 I missed your videos

Gonna help u out bud. Purple haze feedback is one of my favorite jojo things…but I’ve never read it. So how do I know the story? Because there’s an English reading of it on RU-vid that’s been around for years. 😭

15:51 nice one

N1 CHEWIEDOG1 FAN RIGHT HERE 😘🙏

Purple Haze Feedback was fire I can’t believe some people still insist that it isn’t canon even though it has no reason not to be

5:36 does anyone else hear ANGEL ATTACK right here?

i hope we get a hollow knight video eventually you cant hide using 10 tracks from the ost in every video and get away with it

I read purple haze feedback over the summer and it’s honestly so good. It ties up almost all the loose ends in part 5. Please consider reading it

It was Araki’s birthday on the 7th he’s now 64, and looks so young 😭

Fugo had so little screen time that in all star battle to give him a full move set they needed to use material from purple haze feedback

"But the world over heaven can overwrite him to not be a failure"

Fugo is the goat of the group, we all woulda done the same thing

As a certified Italian™️ i can confirm that the double letters were mandatory, you mortals cannot comprehend how stupid Italian sounds without doubles. ("Le Bizzarre Avventure di JoJo" without double letters is pronounced "Le Bizárè Avènture di JoJo")

If you want to 'read' Purple Haze: Feedback, I'd strongly recommend the fan-made audiobook on youtube

6:36 among us

I would very much be interested in PHF review. As someone who has read it, all I have to say is that, while it is pretty tonally different and kinda heavier from the typical jojo adventure, it is very much interesting in what it achieves with Fugo's character. And while I do not 100% like how most of the gang is characterized, I do like to think of this story as "soft canon" in a way, because I really liked Fugo from when he was introduced, and I was really bummed out that he only ended up being relevant for only one fight in the series...

Idk why but Fugo is actually one of my fav characters in the whole series :3

Which Garfield characters are circumcised Chewie ?? I need to know.

I want to add more on the Fugo betrayal. As Giorno and Fugo are fighting, Fugo reveals that he was ordered to kill them as soon as Giorno joined them. But Fugo being smart, he uses Diavolo's paranoia to delay the assasination by promising a perfect time to execute. But as they draw near to the destination, Fugo gets one last phone call. Diavolo is aware that he used his paranoia against him, so as a way to redeem himself, he says to do the job now or he will end them all. And so it's an emotional fight, as he is forced to kill his new family, not only bc he was ordered, but as an act of mercy as any other assasin would make them suffer. Giorno is very empathetic to him, but his words of encouragement are falling into a blind raged man and his ability would cause a lot of harm to not just him, but also innocent people caught in the crossfire. And so, he makes the ultimate desicion. He kills him. Giorno kneels before his friend, as Fugo is barely breathing. Fugo looks up to Giorno and is surprised to see who he thought was an emotionless boy crying for him. For the first time in his life, he feels at peace knowing Giorno will keep his family safe, as he draws the last breath. Flowers grow around his body. Giorno weeps, realizing the true cruel life of a gangster. He returns to the others with Fugo's body and covers for him by saying an enemy did it. They do a proper burial and give him respect, especially Naranja. Bruno didn't believe Giorno's story, but seeing him shedding tears, he knew it was out of self-defense and empathy. Something he is thankful for Giorno. Cause if it was him, he wouldn't bring himself to do it.

It makes sense why in the anime they made him a victim in his backstory instead of a villain, since in the manga he was supposed to be the spy but was changed last minute because of Araki's depression

But what about Purple Haze Feedback? Fugo did give us that!

12:09 is that willy

I swear Fugo not going with the rest of the gang was perfect set up for him to return just like Avdol and Okuyasu after their fake-out deaths. I still can't believe it didn't happen.

Oh my God, chewydog1 uploaded. It’s been 7000 years.🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

My favorite part of that original interaction is that Fugo stabs Narancia in the face with a fork and Bruno barely even reacts he's just like "Fugo stop stabbing your brother, have a seat Giorno"

I'd absolutely love if you did a review of purple haze feedback. Reading it singlehandedly made Fugo go from one of the most forgettable characters in my eyes, to one of my favorites in the whole series.

That’s what happens when you go through all the trouble of manifesting a supernatural punchy ghost and it can’t even help you escape the backrooms

I always think about how emotionally CRUSHING it would of been if Fugo was on the receiving end of the 7 Page Muta, and it would of made Giorno’s anger feel so much more righteous

Takis fugo is insane

Chewiedog reportedly made a video about fugo without reading purple haze feedback

I still wish we got a Purple Haze Feedback OVA.

Won’t lie I wasn’t expecting the Fortnite reference 😂

What did mr. Anger issues do this time?

Was Willy Nord Wrench the quote lol

he has skibidi rizz guys

Just try to find an unofficial translation of PHF, it can be a bit messy but still goated

i did not expect to see jax and connoreatspants fortnite friday mentioned in a jojo video

Fugo was a victim, not by a creepy professor or bad personality but the story itself because he was too good of a character

I already know this is a banger

I see the chicanery u tried to slide in there like we wouldn’t notice

1:10 add the another second for the single panel from part 7

Did you know fugo was supposed to be a traitor? But araki found out that does not look gud so he get low screen time cuz he did not take care about it. And also its why in a moment of the serie its called traitor requiem?

I thought Fugo became irrelevant on purpose. He didn't use his Stand because he was afraid of his power, and he left the team because he was too afraid of Diavolo.

Ain't no way I'm watching this at 1:50am

I think his backstory from the anime is the one from Purple Haze Feedback
