Why is jojolion taking so long? It started in 2011, and they managed to make the anime adaptations for the first 5 parts before jojolion could even finish. I know he switched from a weekly release to a monthly release, but aren't the chapters way longer to compensate?
Why is jojolion taking so long? It started in 2011...
A masterpiece takes time.
JJL is a long story. The chapters are longer but they're twice as long as weekly chapters but come out 4 times as slow. ~45 pages per month compared to ~80 pages per month. It's still longer in page count though than every part besides SBR. I have to wonder if the people that complain about JJL don't read any other monthly manga.
first 24 chapter of SBR is weekly
less than half a year vs two years
>PHANTOM BLOOD: 5 VOLUMES/44 CHAPTERS = 857 PAGES
>BATTLE TENDENCY: 8 VOLUMES/69 CHAPTERS = 1,257 PAGES

>DIAMOND IS UNBREAKABLE: 19 VOLUMES/174 CHAPTERS = 3,476 PAGES

Your numbers are off. We have an official count.

>DiU is the third longest
Weird, felt like nothing happened most of the time.
That's because it's comfy.
>I have to wonder if the people that complain about JJL don't read any other monthly manga
We have a winner
Recommend some other good manga pls. I read Vagabond and Jojo, that's about it
What the hell? JJL has already surpassed most of the others but the story still feels like it's going nowhere.
>makes a wallpaper out of an image
>put an obnoxious transparent text watermark in the bottom left
I felt that way with JoJolion in beginnng but ever since that countdown's started there's been a clear path for the story ahead. Plus it's a mystery so pieces falling into place don't make much sense until they've finally completed the picture they were forming.
god I hope it takes at least 2 more years minimum. Im really enjoying this part and I hope it tackles the mysteries instead of being rushed
say hi to your main villain
be glad you don't have a different problem on your hands
go to one page threads and see if anything looks interesting, or just watch anime and pick up the manga it's adapting if you liked the show
such as "whenever the fuck I feel like it" releases

Araki is tired of the whole series. Just like Togashi is tired of HxH and Miura is tired of Berserk.

Cuz this retard of an author chopped up giogio arc where he was suppose to go to prison. Instead he ended everything, shit was already drawn out with gio and 2 other members in the prison. time was against him because he wrote/drawn himself into wall like most artists. He took the prison arc and made it into it's own series with a """new""" jojo mc. He then uses the left over pieces of flushed out scenes and pages to create a story only to walk into another wall. He fucking Allah akhbar the story to start all over with a ""fresh"" beginning and "more control". Steel ball was somewhat original but fucking jojolion is a god damn mess that keeps shitting the bed

Stop speedreading.
Just cut it with paint

Not really, weekly chapters are about 2x shorter than a monthly chapter, so it's more like less than half a year vs one year.
>Schizo out
The irony
Nothing ironic about a partshitter being a schizo freak.
S-H-I-T! I didn't know about this. What are the other theories on the head doctor's stand. I don't think it was all his stand. I think that most of it was Tooru.
The other theory pretty much the same but without karera at all. The head doctor can displace his image with his stand, and Tooru's stand causes collisions to happen to whoever pursues the image. The same thing happened to Mitsuba at her place, and the kid who got trapped between the fence. Also most people think that the collision-based stand is Tooru's because of the sun symbols they both seem to have. The stand also only shows up after they've encountered the head doctor, so I doubt it has anything to do with the doctor's method of transport.
I think he was referring to the
>much alternate reality of part 4
Not himself.
You're wrong. How can you even misinterpret his post this badly?
good taste
>not realizing that its flashback man, aka the true leader of the rock humans aka the kars of the part aka evil scolippi
Berserk
>evil scolippi
elaborate
just a shitpost cause I forgot about that character until last vento aureo episode. and thought it would be somewhat fiting that we'd have a sculptor as the race-creator for rock humans. that and I might come to like a evil jesus if done properly.
Gappy will die next chapter
I don't think that's where part 8 is going but it would be great
the idea of an actual sculptor being the one who created rock humans would be really interesting. already debunked by araki though.
It’s the principle of the thing, dammit
yeah, just force every single person who doesn't like it to cut it out with paint, instead of just not putting it there in the first place. i get that you want "e-fame" but it looks like fucking shit and I would never waste my time downloading it.
yeah....
>last chapter I read was 82
>latest one is 88
>can't remember everything that's happened so I'll have to re-read everything (again) before proceeding to c83
What a cursed existence.
well, meant "god-sculptor", not a regular stand user, I know there's that page that explains they are a old race.
Weekly artists put out ~75-80 pages a month.
Monthly artists put out ~50-60.
There is also that theory with Tooru being a toreador/Torero (like his name implies) and using the head doctor as his coat to attract/distract the main cast (they're the bull) and using his stand to hurt them.
>Monthly artists put out ~50-60.
That's on the really optimistic side. I'd say 30 pages is more of the average. Some do even less than that. Though the range is really wide. Monthly 4koma manga do like 10 pages per month and I'm reading Beck right now, which is a pretty solid 60-70 pages per month.
Doesn't Berserk put out 20 chapters?
maybe 20 pages a year
Its also his outfit + hair.
fits the small jacket and hat
Yes
if chapter 89 isnt about the head doctor im killing myself
> PHANTOM BLOOD 5 VOLUMES
this is why I'll never understand when people say they hate PB
Kaiji or akagi
what does the number of volumes have to do with the part's quality?
Dr. Stone SnK
Maybe it's literally the head doctor's coat? Like, Tooru's stand can touch a piece of fabric, which causes collisions to occur upon pursuing it. Either that, or the head doctor is just an illusion created by the Tooru's stand. That would account for the head doctor's speed, but not for the disappearing Kyo. It also seems kinda overloaded for just one stand ability. There's probably something else to it, but the Torero theory should basically be confirmed by now.
I wonder if you could combine this theory with the "stealing people's image" stand theory.
read shit about bullfighters and come back. his stand probably has something to with some random fact about it, or some metaphorical bullshit.
Tooru's stand doesn't seem to have any risk factor to it. You would think that having a matador-esque stand could put the user in danger.

Reminder that Jobin will have a second form like previous villains.

>Pudgy Valentine and /fit/ Valentine
valentine is stretching it, and dio to DIO is obviously just being convenient. regardless, you're still right because he's obviously going to fuse with someone. either kaato or tsurugi. the most kino choice though, would be josuke
>tfw Joubin it's also a JoJo
This is like the millionth time some retard has incorrectly come to this conclusion. higashikata doesn't have the 2nd Jo. The reason Josuke is a jojo is because the kanji for suke can be read the same as the kanji for jo. The more you know, fucktard.

It kinda hurts to think that we probably would've been on part 10 if Araki didn't switch the magazines. I know it's better for him since he's old but I can't help but wonder what other parts would look like had he not switched over
Im sure 7 and 8 would be worse
If they would be on par with 5 still I'd take it

Tsurugi put him in a body bag
yeah, you didnt see jobin at the time either cause he got him tied up so he will fuse him to save grandpa
the real villain is Johnny's wife's dad because Johnny's sperm spun into a universe that could impregnate rock humans and ancient Norisuke is a racist
>johnny is to blame
guess we can agree on something
Berserk is fun if you having a strongboye protag and really good art/story
I mean, when you work on one project for most of your time for thirty years, I would imagine that it would get tiring eventually.
Berserk puts out 20 individual panels about Griffith discussing infrastructure
If you think about it the rokakaka just revived a goddamn baby.
That's fucked up, there's no way that baby is going to just be a normal child, he will play a role in the story somehow.
hahaha, look at his face
It's never going to end.
JoJolion will never have an ending because i just murdered Araki.
