I just now finished JoJo part 6 and had the biggest headache from it.
I haven't read parts 7 or 8 yet. I've just barely started Steel Ball Run.
I have to know, how should I view parts 7 and 8 in relation to the previous parts timewise?
Like, I guess I should see it like a parallel universe, but the structure of shit is still there. Like the SPW foundation, the Joestar curse seems still in full throtle and Stands are still prevalent.
>I have to know, how should I view parts 7 and 8 in relation to the previous parts timewise? as actually good parts
Jaxon Morgan
Timewise, dipshit.
Carter Barnes
as a good time
Andrew Green
So a parallel universe 100% unrelated to the other one?
Julian Morales
a good time
Asher Bennett
Parts 7 and 8 take place in a universe completely unrelated to both the universe of parts 1 - 6 and the universe introduced at the end of Part 6. It's a whole new universe.
Adrian Howard
Pucci literally created the SBRverse.
Bentley Bell
That's not entirely true
Hudson Hughes
Don't listen to this user. This isn't true. SBRverse has literally nothing to do with Pucci or Part 6. This new universe is a literal reboot. If the SBRverse was the universe Pucci created then jojolion literally would not be possible.
Chase Reyes
Yes it is, retard. If it was the same universe then Valentine would have mentioned it.
Josiah Long
There’s no Joestar curse, you have the birthmark and that’s it
Luke Hernandez
Don't even start with Jojolion because I really want this to be spoiler free.
I'll drop the thread if needed.
But I do know about alternate versions of previous characters. So that's why I don't know how I should view this.
Michael Green
7- no relation to the anything in the main series. Just has names and stands that are similar.
Blake Morgan
Then why do they keep getting into bizarre adventures?
Levi Campbell
hehehehehe josuke has 4 balls
Oliver Campbell
>George I, Johnathan and George all died die while being very young >Speewagon though that Joseph would suffer the same destiny but he avoid it
I’m reading SBR and i’m not finding it that great. Yeah writting and character evolution is better but there is something that is off. It doesn’t make me feel the same thing as others parts
the beginning of SBR is actually hot garbage it starts getting good after and in the end of the first race
Asher Turner
>7 >good redditor found and discarded
Jayden Evans
Think of it as a reboot of the original series, except also canon.
Grayson Lopez
It gets better
Easton Morgan
Nothing special happens with the Joestars between 7 and 8
Xavier Reed
Part 7 contains the best characters in Jojo and the best characters of all time. Gyro qualifies for the latter. He's hilarious, but he also has a tragic backstory that offers him plenty of motivation while keeping him a mystery. Diego is a unique spin on Dio from Part 1, and his Stand Scary Monsters is awesome. Lucy and Steven are a great duo. Steven is barely in the story, but he's a well written and unique supporting character. While Lucy doesn't come into play until the finale, she is still compelling. Wekapipo is one of the finest side protagonists and works well as a foil to Gyro. Part 7 also contains my favorite side villain, Ringo, and though his time spent in the story is brief it is arguably the pinnacle of of the entire series. As for the Jojo and main villain, they're unquestionably the best of the best. Johnny is a tragic lightning rod of Shakespearean proportions. It's not only impossible to not root for him; it is immoral. He possesses one of the greatest and most significant character arcs I've ever experienced, and his Stand Tusk is awesome to boot. He is my favorite Jojo bar none, despite being one of the most depraved ones. Johnny is immoral and sinful and honestly can be considered the villain of Part 7, but he is still a compelling force of nature. Valentine can be considered the hero to an extent and is one of the most sympathetic villains to grace manga. In fact, it's no secret Valentine is my favorite antagonist ever. He's like an improved version of Ozymandias from Watchmen who takes pride in his actions rather than cry in secret. A true patriot, Valentine will stop at nothing to make America great again. As said by the man himself, his "heart and actions are utterly unclouded. They represent those of JUSTICE.". D4C also has one of the most insane and unique powers of any Stand and makes for a more than satisfying final fight.

Benjamin Johnson
...
Hudson Gonzalez
Ah thanks, sorry I messed up
Owen Peterson
If Valentine is to be believed, then the SBR universe is in fact the prime dimension. So yes. It is an alternate universe that has some overlaps.
Nolan Phillips
SBR is trash. 4,8 chads are based
David Jenkins
don't associate your piece of shit part with my patrician JoJolion series he'd be like a teddy roosevelt imo. a good amount of progressivism to protect the people but not restrict their freedom.
Jordan Sullivan
characters might share names and have similar roles as the characters from pt 1-6 but they otherwise have no relation
ABOVE ALL: PUCCIVERSE/IRENEVERS IS NOT THE SBRVERSE
Jaxson Morris
Pucci literally created the SBRverse.
Justin Mitchell
Fuck off
Dylan Hernandez
SBR literally created the Pucciverse.
Cameron Cook
Yes
Aaron Brooks
One look at the SBRverse Joestar family tree can tell you that its not the Ireneverse or the part 1-6 universe.
It's called Stone Ocean, maybe you could read it sometime.
Matthew Parker
Here's my (correct) p6 ending interpretation. Basically the world got rewined to being before part 6 happened. But with Pucci never existing at all (specifically said to happen in the manga). Joylene never becoming a stand user and oddly enough Green Dolphin never existing. Jotaro is probably alive studying dolphins hating his wife in quiet like a boomer. All the small design and name differences just being a small butterfly effect from some gay black guy not existing
Green Dolphin still exists. Hermes says the bus driver is suspicious of her because it’s near the prison
Lincoln Wood
Pucci's absence doesn't explain why Anasui never murdered his girlfriend or why Hermes isn't trying to get revenge on Sports Max
Jason Foster
Here's a game theory, when the universe reseted one last time, Emporoio's will had an influence on it and reset our main crew to whatever state would be closest to them, but leave them as non-criminals
Butterfly effect and all Pucci even said everyone's destiny would change if he didn't finish the cycle, and even in an altered destiny some people are still fated to be drawn to each other like the part 6 crew because gravity
Nolan Gomez
might be the best fight in the series. up there
Jonathan Williams
>Pucci even said everyone's destiny would change if he didn't finish the cycle Yeah, that's the real reason why things were different. It's not only things related to Pucci.
Brayden Rodriguez
This.
Cameron Long
Timewise no. Its not a new universe. Its the same universe, just reset. So basically because of Made in Heaven it takes place about 6 billion years after Part 6.
