How would you improve the plot of Jojo part 5?

Its always been on friday

wat, n-no

Araki likes the stoic, idealist kind of hero. He specifically mentions Clint Eastwood in the good the bad and the ugly as a major influence on his concept of a heroic protagonist. The villains need to be charismatic, there needs to be something that makes us feel ambiguous about them instead of straight up resenting them

So, out of all the rock humans, are there any that could be considered alternate universe equivalents to Kars, Whammu, and Eisidisi?

The boss definitely makes me feel something in my pants.

>Would Giorno be a lot more tolerable of a character for you if he made like his daddies and died in the end, and then would the metaphor be more excusable?
Well that would only make that particular metaphor actually work as a metaphor. By more directly relating these actions. Have this stand-in for a divine figure inspire these other downtrodden characters and in his ultimate sacrifice his persistence and will is taken to heart by the others to keep going and fulfil his dream. In that scenario I feel it would be more consistent. But I think the whole religious metaphor is simply not needed in the first place, even if that's what Araki ultimately ended up writing. And besides, even having some of it there doesn't necessarily mean someone needs to become Jesus-kun, that isn't the only way to relate these things. You can have themes of sinners being absolved of their sins through their actions etc etc. It really doesn't matter if it's ''religious'' or not. That should not automatically make something more relevant just because it's exotic to Araki.

For this part you can have premise of characters being trapped inside a criminal system as a result of bad circumstances and their actions (some more responsible for it than others) and then this group of underdogs band together in an effort to dismantle if from within for the greater good, maybe Giorno taking the directive or perhaps him playing a proper support role by getting Bruno to the top because he's more appropriate for it and Giorno grows to respect that and not be selfish or something. The whole destiny, fate, messiah theme just falls apart for me because if everything is already predetermined, characters are just following through like robots and their inner conflicts do not matter ultimately. And it's also just weird for something overall regarding the mafia, like don't romanticise that. The motivations of the characters in the story as it currently is are very hypocritical in that sense.
