This is literally the theory I have, and that Diavolo will be a Brando due to biblical relationship between the Devil and God in the bible, Diavolo being Italian for Devil and Dio being Italian for god.

@@rosekirk I don't necessarily think that alternate universe Diavolo will be a villain, perhaps a minor one but not the key point of the plot, I belive that role will go to an alternate universe Pucci. I think that this Diavolo will be more a key pivoting point of the plot similar to Kira in part 8. The Joestar curse isn't in motion as there isn't necessarily going to be a rivalry between the two characters they will simply coexist in close context just as Dio and Giorno did in the original universe. Jodio is an alternate universe Giorno after all, his father has to be a decendant of the Brando lineage anyway. Its just my theory is that he will take the form of an alternate universe Diavolo. I still believe the main villain will be thematically similar to Pucci but I have no real evidence for this other than Kars being thematically similar to Valentine and Tooru bring thematically similar to Kira (Valentine being obsessed with shaping the America in his own image and ruling over a group of people similar to Kars and Tooru attempting to live a life undected by those around him similar to Kira). This means each of the main villains of the alternate universe are thematically and characteristicly similar to the villains of the original universe on even numbered parts which means the next even numbered part is part 6 meaning this main villain will not be "Pucci" in the literal sense but will be very similar in goals and ideals.
I’m actually interested to know who his father might be Araki might either just keep him hidden as a character, a stand user, or just a normal guy who might be a piece of trash like Dario
A cool theory someone talked about is how each of the Joestar protagonists in the alternate universe are opposites to their original counterparts. Johnny is frail and morally grey unlike Jonathon who's massive and righteous. Gappy is much more willing to go after his goals and start fights than Josuke who was pretty laid back and only attacked when provoked. Jodio is a loudmouth who traffics drugs to kids, and Giorno was much more subtle and became the Mafia's leader to stop child drug sales. It's cool that Araki really seems to leaning into this. I also think we're going to get this dichotomy with Dragona and Jolyne sooner or later.
Alt-universe Joseph Joestar was actually really polite and honorable, kind of like a more awkward Jonathan Joestar Josefumi Kujo was extremely polite to his mother >Alternate universe Jolyne/Irene: always pays her taxes on time, volunteers at the local food bank, is taking marine biology in college just like her dad
Interesting theory that I could see somewhat carrying over with the returning main antagonist we’ve seen as well. Instead of being a serial killer Kira saves a couple lives. As well as being the son of a nurse and helps out at the hospital, contrasting with how the original Kira died. Off the top of my head Diego might not have too many drastic differences from Dio, but he seems much more reasonable than Dio. He could even be considered a good guy/antihero in the end against Valentine. Might all be coincidence but I’m interested to see if there’s a new Diavolo and if he’ll follow this possible pattern
Compare both their parents as well, you see how Giorno was treated vs how Jodio is treated with his brother, and he even loves his mom which is why he sells the drugs.
I dig this theory! What about the one where part 7 Johnny is actually the culmination of parts 1-3. The life of Jonathan, the “brutality” of Jotaro, and the smart ass mouth of Joseph. Josuk8 is laid back like Josuke, ruthless like giorno, and empathetic like Jolyne.
I honestly think his father might be Diavolo or some alternate universe version of him, probably a Diavolo Brando. If Diavolo were his father, Diavolo would also get the nickname DIO in same way as Diego would (they both have DI in the beginning and the O in the end) so it could play into part 5 with DIO Brando still being his dad-technically.
I feel like Araki’s making Jodio’s mental state what it is to give him personal evolution alongside his story arc. He sells drugs to kids and stuff like that now, but through his pursuit of mechanisms he could change *_drastically,_* taking a look back at his past and thinking “oh god I’ve been part of the negative mechanisms this whole time” or something. The sorts of journeys Araki’s characters take always change them dramatically, whether it’s Jotaro learning to trust and rely on others over his journey after his father abandoned him or Josuke learning to take his responsibility to his community more seriously during the Kira case; maybe Araki will have this father try to come back and take custody, even. Really work the family drama on overdrive.

My insane crackpot theory: Diego survived Steel Ball Run. At the end of SBR, alt world Diego is killed by annihilating his head with our world Diego's head. Here's where I start being insane: Our world Diego still had Scary Monsters when he died, an ability that infects other living things with a dinosaur virus. This virus therefore could have tranformed alt universe diego into a dinosaur, and combined with his ability to control the morphing of his dinosaurs via fossilisation, recreate himself. Is this absolutely insane? Yes. Is it possible in Jojo's? Also yes. I think this Dio would also be immortal much like original Dio due to him being able to manipulate his body specifically via scary monsters and possibly adhere new flesh from others.
this is incredibly stupid but not unlikely, to add to your argument scary monsters can bring back the dead like the bear we see on the scary monsters arc

Jodio's psychologist shouldn't be diagnosing him with ASPD, you cannot diagnose children with that condition. You can diagnose conduct disorder in them, which shares similarities to ASPD, but they're not developed enough for a diagnosis of it.
@@ImpendingRiot83 Heck, coming from Araki I can see the psychologist that diagnosed Jodio being brought into question and/or proven wrong as the story continues and that becomes a plot point in and of itself. Imagine this adventure Jodio goes on as he explores the mechanisms, gains and loses friends, get out of danger time and time again, and eventually discovers himself being what makes Jodio become a better person. Not just rich financially, but also character-wise.
As Araki has had a tendency as of late to just create new branches of the joestar bloodline, I would not be surprised is jodio is a descendant of some kid Dario Brando had later or something like that.
5:13 Instead of Buccerati's gang the gang looks to be more similar to La Squadra... Also Giorno has the mind of Dio and the desires of Johnathon, Jodio would have the mind of Johnny and the desires of Diego. 8:54 We also gotta consider Johnny had an older brother, that means the Brando bloodline would have to have an equivalent with Diego having a brother.... probably someone he doesn't know about.
The interesting thing is that, technically, we’ve got the corpse of both Diego and alt universe Diego in the world. Both of them lost their heads, but is it possible the rest of their bodies might have ended up somewhere?
Somebody mention something quite disturbing. Chickens and Dinosaurs are theorized to be connected, and chickens can live without their heads. So that could mean...
I like the idea (theory?) that Barbara Ann is a bastard child of this universe's Joseph, except he adopted her from a young age and raised her with this version of Suzy Q. A parallel to both (Part 4) Josuke & Shizuka. I can only imagine how the JoJo fandom would react, if Joseph cheated on his wife with a very distant descendant Diego. But who knows, maybe we're looking too in-depth. Fans will be fans.
I feel like rather than needing a Dio like figure the father figure this time could be shown to have a lot of significance for Jodio within the part. As it feels like the mention of him so far and him definitely being alive might be setting up for something later. Does make me wonder if his own father could end up being in a Diavolo like role for this part rather than JUST a Dio expy. Especially as a lot of characters in the new universe feel less like straight up alternate versions of the same character so much as more and more of them feel like mixes of previous characters. Not to mention as you pointed out Diavolo and Dario both have things in common when it comes to how they treat their offspring.
@@Cherry_cola4I dont think he ever said Diego with the world was the only one alive, He only specified he struggled to find a Diego that was alive not that on itself he was the only one thst survived
I actually think his father might be alternative diavolo. Like, Barbara Ann is the opposite of Giorno's mom, she is caring and present in his life while giorno's was absent and uncaring. So, it isn't a stretch to think that Jodio's father would be an opposite to Dio(god), which means he could be Diavolo(devil). Also, og Diavolo did abandon his daughter, and if Jodio's father is to be an opposite of Dio, he could have an active role in his story
It's also possible Diego could've also had a fling with one of vis fangirls before he died and had an illegitimate child. Another thing that also supports the whole Brando dad thing is that Brandos have names starting with D and Dragona's name obviously starts with a D (Giorno is an exception because he's a JoJo like Jodio and phonetically his name makes him a Jojo. He doesn't have a J because the Italian language doesn't have a J and in Japanese there's no distinction since the katakana for jo and gio are the same making him Joruno Jovana). That said one theorie of who Jodio's dad could be is the flashback guy who appeared in Jojolion that was never brought up again. The guy Josuke randomly remembers while he's being attacked by Ojiro. If you look at that man he's blonde and has a similar hair style to Jodio. Josuke concludes that he met him in his past life meaning that Kira knew the man. It would make some sense for Kira to have known him if that man was his uncle.
I have a theory that Jodio's father will be revealed to be an alternate universe Diavolo who will be a direct forgotten decentant of Diego Brando. I know that sounds really stupid but hear me out. Over part 7 and 8 we have had direct references or thematical similarities to every villain in the original universe between parts 1 and 4 (Diego and Kira being direct references to Dio and Kira while Valentine was thematically similar in both goals and motivation as Kars.) We have not yet encountered a counterpart for Diavolo or Pucci yet. The reason it is possible for Diavolo to be a Brando in the alternate universe is for a few reasons. Diavolo is by both name and theme a reference to Lucifer in the bible (Diavolo is Devil in Italian.) while Dio is similar in both name and themes to God (Dio being Italian for God.) Lucifer was cast out by God but that doesn't mean he wasn't once an angel of God, one of Gods creations. A creation cast out and forgotten. This could line up with Diego perhaps having a child, a child he didn't want so he abandoned them and never brought it up again which is the reason why we think Diego died childless in SBR. This could then be passed down the family tree until we reach the child named Diavolo, a devil born as the forgotten child of Diego Brando. They then could have had a child with Barbra Ann, who already had Dragona at this point, and then disappeared similar to Diavolo and Trish. Barbra Ann kept her maiden name of Joestar and decided to never bring up Diavolo to Jodio. Also Diavolo follows a similar naming scheme to Dario, Dio and Diego, all the members of the Brando bloodline It has a "D" an "I" and two "O" sounds which are key inflections within the name itself, This point is a little less likely to be the main reason but to me it sounds right. This sounds super out there but its perfectly in line with how insane Araki writes his stories and pulls out references from everything around him including biblical texts, references and symbolism. I feel like my English teacher right now lmao
Just something I noticed. Araki puts more emphasis on his characters personalities in the earlier chapters. Not that he forgets them, but they are just more prominent early. Like how Josuk8 loved sleeping underneath his bed for more pressure or Giorno folding his ear into it's hole or repeating himself or Yasuho liking her elbow or Josuke being scared of Reptiles. Also Diego could have had an illegitimate child at any point in time. Even during the race. Johny nearly fucked Hot pants. It's not impossible.
I wish Araki stuck with those traits. Like Josuk8 was so goofy in the start. But in the second half, he loses a lot of his personality. Ig cause of the situation, he had to be more serious but still.
@Organic Elephant share an interview with "Araki confirmed" because I've seen many people use that term and when I look up there's absolutely nothing on it. Share source please
I thought the unknown flashback man from jojolion chapter 5 was some version of Dio, and now I think maybe he is the father of Jodio and the main antagonist of part 9
My theory is that its actually diego. you guysbknow those chickens that stay alive once their heads are cut off? so, a dinossaur is basically a big chicken, imagine if once lucy "killed" the world diego, the scary monster stand was still active and preserved him. would be an amazing callback to see a dio parasiting a body with his head with two stands given that the original had a hermit purple that was likely from jonatham
Jodio's father will end up being MMQ's Boss. The reason why Jodio and Dragona got into this lifestyle is because of their father. MMQ knew that she would get special attention due to having the boss's kids working for her.
Part 7 Dario isn't even a Brando 💀 In this continuity Diego and his mother take the Brando surname sometime after they are accepted in their new "home" by a family of farmers. But anyway I can agree that Jodio and Dragona's father could be a descendant of Dario or Diego in some way. But it would be funny if the father will be revealed to be Magenta Magenta surviving for over 100 years just because
Well, Diego was a famous jockey. Judging from that one scene where Johnny tries to brutally murder him whilst a group of women is simping for him, we can assume that women love him. It is entirely possible that Diego, in the same way as DIO, had numerous children with numerous women from hookups. Jodio is probably a decendant of one of those hookup children.
I feel like it’s impossible for Diego to be the father because of the such large time period. Steel Ball Run takes place in 1890, while Jojolands takes place around 2021 (judging from the use of covid and more modern settings). I think Jodio’s father is a descendant of Diego, much likely a grandson or something, maybe great grandson. Whether this Diego was the current one or the alternate one with The World…I don’t know, but I do think he’ll have a major role later on, possibly something like a role Jotaro had to Jolyne or Diavolo had to Trish, both can be either ways. Though judging from the more part 5-like setting, with Josip being a alternate Giorno, I think his father might be an alternate Diavolo and likely the main villain
Do you think way later jodio could have a moment that's the opposite of dio throwing away his humanity? Like some epiphany causes jodio to throw away his selfish desires and become a true joestar? It'd be really cool to have a jojo that has to consciously choose and learn to be righteous instead of it just being innate in their joestar blood
I mean, in this new universe, the Joestar lineage is different from the one we saw in the original one. If you look close enough, the Joestars in the new universe are mainly motivated by egoism instead of out of a desire to help people. And yes, Johnny started to form a bond with Gyro and at the end he genuinely wanted to stop alternative Diego out of simply wanting to help in the situation, and Gappy protects his family and friends like no one. But their main motivation is out of egoism, which brings out a more morally grey Joestar lineage instead of the og Joestars, whose while some of them were questionable, their main motivations was to help people.
Jolyne's kinda like Jodio at the beginning, commiting crimes, getting into trouble. Then she grew and got the Joestar's sense of justice to defeat Pucci.
I'm pretty sure that it's possible for Jodio and Dragona to have a different father but at the same time the Pucci family had non mixed children so I don't know what the family tree will look like.
one thing i will say about the new colour scans is that i love the range of colours used, makes it look like what araki would want the coloured scans to actually look like
The colored scans are actually a fan project with panels being colored by various artists in the community, you can check them out! chromaverse-paint.carrd.co/
I know this is really off-topic, but now that we have these parallels between characters, I wanted to mention that I'm interested in knowing how part 8's plot is going to affect part 9. With the whole idea of having a territory mix things together, there might be a point when, if a stand user with the ability to overlap and mix universes ends up being the final villain, will probably get something like the Earth and the universe will get overlapped with the original universe and end up mixing all characters together in a single universe mix. Basically, Part 8, but universes instead of just people.
I think that, like I said with my JoJo friend; JODIO will obtain the capacity to manipulate the fabric of reality using Quantum Mechaniques or Real Numbers, making his powers endless and op like Gappy and Jonathan from Part 8 & 7. We didn't read it, we just know it from seeing videos and explaining them to each other. Gotta be fucking hillarious if it's the case though
I think Jodio's relationship with money and happiness could tell us a lot about his father and his lineage. He worried that someone "like him" will never find happiness because the adults in his life want to look at him so clinically. It makes me wonder if money is how or why his mother had to move from Atlantic City, a major gambling capital. Maybe he has seen money build people up and tear them down at the same time which definitely fits the Brando theme.
I sort of read it that she moved to get away from Jodio's father... (also Diego could have gone out and 'boinked' a statesworth of prostitutes both while he was married to his wrinkly wife, AND in stopovers during the race...)
Part 7 was kind of a fusion of part 1 and 3. Considering who the final antagonist was I don't think Araki is gonna go on after Jojolands, hes like 70 or 80 and he took 10 years to finish Jojolion, it might take another ten for Jojolands
Calling it now, jodio’s father made the family up and move to hawaii so he could look further into those rocks we’ve seen in rohans villa, then either went Brando dad mode and was just shitty (meaning he’s gonna be a future antagonist) or he went part 6 Jotaro mode and left to protect the family (meaning he’ll turn up later in the part, not sure what kind of alignment). Either that or he’s largely irrelevant to the story like Jotaro’s dad or Giorno’s and Jolyne’s mothers, and we don’t hear anything else about him save for maybe a couple of details.
I would absolutely love for Jodio’s father to be a Brando descendant but Araki is the king of unpredictable mad lads he will probably make their father some random guy of no importance
I have a theory with no supporting evidence, but I bet the diamond jodio and the gang are looking for is an alternate universe version of the jesus parts, thats why its so valuable
2:34 coming back I just thought, what if josefumi didn’t cheat on suzie q but instead he actually had a family in japan, got stuck in America and cheated on his original wife with suzie q
I shall now post my usually Jodio theory, that being perhaps we are taking his name to literal Like he isn't the son of DIO(whatever that may mean in this context) but rather the son of former villians
Diego must have had some kind of affair before he died being handsome and charming as he is. Its not impossible that he have child with another woman that continued the Brando bloodline, that somehow, fated to meet the Joestar again
It just dawned on me that if Dragona is black and Barbara Ann is white, then the father must also be black, and we only know one black character who is so passionate about DIO and the Joestars to name his son Jodio
My theory is that Jodios grandma(fathers side) might be au Pucci(charcaters having sex changes in the au are not that rare since Koichi turned to Yasuho and the Nijima bothers to Kei). And even tho Jodio could suffer actual Antisocial dossorders i doubt he is that bad of a person(i know its the chliche where the psycho only uses his powers to hurt and or kill people who deserve it). I feel like Jodios morals will be ina more casual way? Where he will learn to self love and his selfworth on top of him thinking he might be bad but atleast he isnt as bad as *insert Villain*.
My theory is that his father is a descendant of Dario,since it was mentioned in SBR that Dario was still alive but that was the last we heard of him(Unresolved Plot-point),I'm gonna assume Jodio's father will link back to Dario
crazy ahh theory scary monsters diego actually survived by using his dinosaur form to regenerate and live hundreds of years without aging as a dinosaur somewhere in nature paralleling DIO living hundreds of years as a vampire
Everybody gangsta til Jodio's father has the last name Brando: *Diavolo Brando* Speaking of predictions, I look forward to when see 4 more Giornos in Part 9 lol

I mean Original Holly just kinda fucked a random Jazz man so it’s totally possible.
Then why call him Jo Dio that means fucked up in Spanish
Two possible answers: Flashback-Man, or that guy that screamed 'USHAAAH' before offing himself in part 8, Mamezuku's cell-mate
Jodio’s father is the mystery man from Jojolion, a Brando. Jodio will be the sole distributor of Rokakaka in the world.
Yeah I thought about that too. It would make sense why Josuke remembers him if that man was Kira's uncle.
His dad is a Dio with a Killer Queen
I think we should appreciate how xforts helped us all with the questions we've haven't bothered to research.
Jodio's psychologist shouldn't be diagnosing him with ASPD, you cannot diagnose children with that condition. You can diagnose conduct disorder in them, which shares similarities to ASPD, but they're not developed enough for a diagnosis of it.
This is actually why I don’t think that diagnosis will stick over the course of the story and as Jodio develops.
@@ImpendingRiot83
Heck, coming from Araki I can see the psychologist that diagnosed Jodio being brought into question and/or proven wrong as the story continues and that becomes a plot point in and of itself. Imagine this adventure Jodio goes on as he explores the mechanisms, gains and loses friends, get out of danger time and time again, and eventually discovers himself being what makes Jodio become a better person. Not just rich financially, but also character-wise.
The psychologist is the final villain
I can't wait to see how far jodio will go.
As Araki has had a tendency as of late to just create new branches of the joestar bloodline, I would not be surprised is jodio is a descendant of some kid Dario Brando had later or something like that.
😂
5:13 Instead of Buccerati's gang the gang looks to be more similar to La Squadra...
Also Giorno has the mind of Dio and the desires of Johnathon, Jodio would have the mind of Johnny and the desires of Diego.
8:54 We also gotta consider Johnny had an older brother, that means the Brando bloodline would have to have an equivalent with Diego having a brother.... probably someone he doesn't know about.
Diego wanted to be filthy rich, cuz he wanted manhattan island
The interesting thing is that, technically, we’ve got the corpse of both Diego and alt universe Diego in the world. Both of them lost their heads, but is it possible the rest of their bodies might have ended up somewhere?
Possibly....weird shit happens in JoJo
Somebody mention something quite disturbing. Chickens and Dinosaurs are theorized to be connected, and chickens can live without their heads. So that could mean...
Jodio's father is probably some saxophone player
I think that Barbara Ann is adopted, like Shizuku from Part 4. It would explain why an outdated family tree would not have her name as well
Its a neat concept but like, it means Jodio is missing out on the Joestar blood that every Jojo has.
No. We see that Dragona has the Joestar birthmark
I like the idea (theory?) that Barbara Ann is a bastard child of this universe's Joseph, except he adopted her from a young age and raised her with this version of Suzy Q. A parallel to both (Part 4) Josuke & Shizuka.
I can only imagine how the JoJo fandom would react, if Joseph cheated on his wife with a very distant descendant Diego.
But who knows, maybe we're looking too in-depth. Fans will be fans.
I feel like rather than needing a Dio like figure the father figure this time could be shown to have a lot of significance for Jodio within the part. As it feels like the mention of him so far and him definitely being alive might be setting up for something later. Does make me wonder if his own father could end up being in a Diavolo like role for this part rather than JUST a Dio expy.
Especially as a lot of characters in the new universe feel less like straight up alternate versions of the same character so much as more and more of them feel like mixes of previous characters. Not to mention as you pointed out Diavolo and Dario both have things in common when it comes to how they treat their offspring.
This theory is actually very interesting
It seems to me that Jodio's ancestor will be Diego from a parallel reality, whom Funny dragged into this reality by accident or as another fallback.
That would be insane
didnt think of that
Valentine mentioned that Diego was dead in every other universe possible except for one which was Diego with the world who also died at the end
@@Cherry_cola4I dont think he ever said Diego with the world was the only one alive, He only specified he struggled to find a Diego that was alive not that on itself he was the only one thst survived
I do believe that Jodio has some Brando blood
but I also wouldn’t be surprised if the father was just random dude
Eleven months later and chapter 13 releases and look what we see in a flashback, Jodio’s father who is just a random guy
I actually think his father might be alternative diavolo. Like, Barbara Ann is the opposite of Giorno's mom, she is caring and present in his life while giorno's was absent and uncaring. So, it isn't a stretch to think that Jodio's father would be an opposite to Dio(god), which means he could be Diavolo(devil). Also, og Diavolo did abandon his daughter, and if Jodio's father is to be an opposite of Dio, he could have an active role in his story
This theory will probably be proven soon
It's also possible Diego could've also had a fling with one of vis fangirls before he died and had an illegitimate child. Another thing that also supports the whole Brando dad thing is that Brandos have names starting with D and Dragona's name obviously starts with a D (Giorno is an exception because he's a JoJo like Jodio and phonetically his name makes him a Jojo. He doesn't have a J because the Italian language doesn't have a J and in Japanese there's no distinction since the katakana for jo and gio are the same making him Joruno Jovana).
That said one theorie of who Jodio's dad could be is the flashback guy who appeared in Jojolion that was never brought up again. The guy Josuke randomly remembers while he's being attacked by Ojiro. If you look at that man he's blonde and has a similar hair style to Jodio.
Josuke concludes that he met him in his past life meaning that Kira knew the man. It would make some sense for Kira to have known him if that man was his uncle.
I have a theory that Jodio's father will be revealed to be an alternate universe Diavolo who will be a direct forgotten decentant of Diego Brando. I know that sounds really stupid but hear me out. Over part 7 and 8 we have had direct references or thematical similarities to every villain in the original universe between parts 1 and 4 (Diego and Kira being direct references to Dio and Kira while Valentine was thematically similar in both goals and motivation as Kars.) We have not yet encountered a counterpart for Diavolo or Pucci yet.
The reason it is possible for Diavolo to be a Brando in the alternate universe is for a few reasons. Diavolo is by both name and theme a reference to Lucifer in the bible (Diavolo is Devil in Italian.) while Dio is similar in both name and themes to God (Dio being Italian for God.) Lucifer was cast out by God but that doesn't mean he wasn't once an angel of God, one of Gods creations. A creation cast out and forgotten. This could line up with Diego perhaps having a child, a child he didn't want so he abandoned them and never brought it up again which is the reason why we think Diego died childless in SBR. This could then be passed down the family tree until we reach the child named Diavolo, a devil born as the forgotten child of Diego Brando. They then could have had a child with Barbra Ann, who already had Dragona at this point, and then disappeared similar to Diavolo and Trish. Barbra Ann kept her maiden name of Joestar and decided to never bring up Diavolo to Jodio.
Also Diavolo follows a similar naming scheme to Dario, Dio and Diego, all the members of the Brando bloodline It has a "D" an "I" and two "O" sounds which are key inflections within the name itself, This point is a little less likely to be the main reason but to me it sounds right.
This sounds super out there but its perfectly in line with how insane Araki writes his stories and pulls out references from everything around him including biblical texts, references and symbolism.
I feel like my English teacher right now lmao
Bruh this comment is unessessaraly underrated. I love this theory
I’m loving your new update schedule, the videos have a great quality!
Hear me out, I think Dragona is Rykiel and Jodio is actually a mix of Ungalo and Giorno
Okay. Hear me out now. What if we’re being introduced into the main villain first.
That would be so cool, kinda like Kira where they build and develop the villain, but tricking us into thinking they're the protagonist on top of thay
Just something I noticed. Araki puts more emphasis on his characters personalities in the earlier chapters. Not that he forgets them, but they are just more prominent early.
Like how Josuk8 loved sleeping underneath his bed for more pressure or Giorno folding his ear into it's hole or repeating himself or Yasuho liking her elbow or Josuke being scared of Reptiles.
Also Diego could have had an illegitimate child at any point in time. Even during the race. Johny nearly fucked Hot pants. It's not impossible.
I wish Araki stuck with those traits. Like Josuk8 was so goofy in the start. But in the second half, he loses a lot of his personality. Ig cause of the situation, he had to be more serious but still.
@@asimuddin6864 Yes, I agree. But atleast I'm sure Jodio being a psychopath will stick. Right?...Right?!?
@Organic Elephant josuke is NOT the alternate universe jotaro lmao
@Organic Elephant share an interview with "Araki confirmed" because I've seen many people use that term and when I look up there's absolutely nothing on it.
Share source please
I thought the unknown flashback man from jojolion chapter 5 was some version of Dio, and now I think maybe he is the father of Jodio and the main antagonist of part 9
I like to think Diego had a one night stand with Sandman’s sister.
based
Real shit, Jodio’s hair design reminds me of Sandman’s except one forward braid.
Its me I swear
So basically it’s jojo bizarre adventure part 9 fatherless behavior
Kinda lol
My theory is that its actually diego. you guysbknow those chickens that stay alive once their heads are cut off? so, a dinossaur is basically a big chicken, imagine if once lucy "killed" the world diego, the scary monster stand was still active and preserved him. would be an amazing callback to see a dio parasiting a body with his head with two stands given that the original had a hermit purple that was likely from jonatham
That would be wild
This.....I....go with this.....😅
This is my headcanon until proven otherwise.
I dont think thats possible, since Diego with Za Warudo doesnt has Scary Monsters (or he has but didnt used idk)
@@luizzz03 He died due to the scary monster's diego head, Im saying that the old dead head posessed the alternate world body
Babe wake up new xforts vid to cure our boredom
Jodio's father will end up being MMQ's Boss. The reason why Jodio and Dragona got into this lifestyle is because of their father. MMQ knew that she would get special attention due to having the boss's kids working for her.
Headcanon: Jodio’s father is Walter White
I hope Araki doesn't pull a Jotaro and just never reveal the dad
That would be lame asf
Calling it now, Jodio’s Dad will be the Main Villain of The JOJOLands.
Well this aged like milk.
Part 7 Dario isn't even a Brando 💀
In this continuity Diego and his mother take the Brando surname sometime after they are accepted in their new "home" by a family of farmers. But anyway I can agree that Jodio and Dragona's father could be a descendant of Dario or Diego in some way. But it would be funny if the father will be revealed to be Magenta Magenta surviving for over 100 years just because
LOL I almost forgot about Magenta Magenta and how he "stopped thinking"
Obviously this is where the flashback man come back into play
Yes
*Konno Diotaro da!*
It's definitely possible that while Diego was married to the old lady, he had a lover who had his kid but well just have to wait and see
Fun fact: It's theorized Toru caused world war 2 as a calamity against Joseph/Lucy
Its interesting how all alternate joestars are polar opposites to eachother like Johathan and johnny, Josuke and Gappy, and Giorno and Jodio.
Love your Jojo videos man! One of the greatest series!🎉🎉
Well, Diego was a famous jockey. Judging from that one scene where Johnny tries to brutally murder him whilst a group of women is simping for him, we can assume that women love him. It is entirely possible that Diego, in the same way as DIO, had numerous children with numerous women from hookups. Jodio is probably a decendant of one of those hookup children.
I feel like it’s impossible for Diego to be the father because of the such large time period. Steel Ball Run takes place in 1890, while Jojolands takes place around 2021 (judging from the use of covid and more modern settings). I think Jodio’s father is a descendant of Diego, much likely a grandson or something, maybe great grandson. Whether this Diego was the current one or the alternate one with The World…I don’t know, but I do think he’ll have a major role later on, possibly something like a role Jotaro had to Jolyne or Diavolo had to Trish, both can be either ways. Though judging from the more part 5-like setting, with Josip being a alternate Giorno, I think his father might be an alternate Diavolo and likely the main villain
5:48 is that Yasuho in the background?
Tooru
Maybe Diego idk laid an egg?
I want a lab Dna clone mix of both johnny and diego, like what he did with the rokakaka fruit but in a scientific way
It was really cool to see palettes I made for Chromaverse show up in a xforts video :0
i swear there was a chapter in SBR that an antagonist pointed out that they give the info of where diegos father is if Diego cooperated
Yeah Diego wanted to find his father and take his revenge. Sadly that plot point was dropped for obvious reasons
Idk why I’ve never thought of who his father would be
So what you’re telling me is that this part is going to be JoJo Breaking Bad
Do you think way later jodio could have a moment that's the opposite of dio throwing away his humanity?
Like some epiphany causes jodio to throw away his selfish desires and become a true joestar?
It'd be really cool to have a jojo that has to consciously choose and learn to be righteous instead of it just being innate in their joestar blood
I mean, in this new universe, the Joestar lineage is different from the one we saw in the original one. If you look close enough, the Joestars in the new universe are mainly motivated by egoism instead of out of a desire to help people. And yes, Johnny started to form a bond with Gyro and at the end he genuinely wanted to stop alternative Diego out of simply wanting to help in the situation, and Gappy protects his family and friends like no one. But their main motivation is out of egoism, which brings out a more morally grey Joestar lineage instead of the og Joestars, whose while some of them were questionable, their main motivations was to help people.
Jolyne's kinda like Jodio at the beginning, commiting crimes, getting into trouble. Then she grew and got the Joestar's sense of justice to defeat Pucci.
im surprised more people arent talking about the stand and how its a crazy outlier compared to the other jojos' humanoid stands
Ya'll think Jodio's dad could be that flashback guy Josuke saw during the Fun, Fun, Fun arc?
Imagine Diego survived somehow. I know this sound crazy, but this is Jojo
The dad went to prison, so its like the prison parallel.
I got the theory tha Diego could have a children in wedlock just like Dio’s kids in VA and SO
I'm pretty sure that it's possible for Jodio and Dragona to have a different father but at the same time the Pucci family had non mixed children so I don't know what the family tree will look like.
one thing i will say about the new colour scans is that i love the range of colours used, makes it look like what araki would want the coloured scans to actually look like
The colored scans are actually a fan project with panels being colored by various artists in the community, you can check them out! chromaverse-paint.carrd.co/
The Hando's sound effects as a censorship is an excellent idea
I know this is really off-topic, but now that we have these parallels between characters, I wanted to mention that I'm interested in knowing how part 8's plot is going to affect part 9.
With the whole idea of having a territory mix things together, there might be a point when, if a stand user with the ability to overlap and mix universes ends up being the final villain, will probably get something like the Earth and the universe will get overlapped with the original universe and end up mixing all characters together in a single universe mix.
Basically, Part 8, but universes instead of just people.
I think that, like I said with my JoJo friend;
JODIO will obtain the capacity to manipulate the fabric of reality using Quantum Mechaniques or Real Numbers, making his powers endless and op like Gappy and Jonathan from Part 8 & 7.
We didn't read it, we just know it from seeing videos and explaining them to each other.
Gotta be fucking hillarious if it's the case though
Flashback man is Jodio's father.
Imagine in this universe giorno is the villain and the father of jodio and the end is Jodio vs Giorno
With Jodio dealing drugs wouldn't it be Wacky if his father was ASAC Schrader 😳
I think Jodio's relationship with money and happiness could tell us a lot about his father and his lineage. He worried that someone "like him" will never find happiness because the adults in his life want to look at him so clinically. It makes me wonder if money is how or why his mother had to move from Atlantic City, a major gambling capital. Maybe he has seen money build people up and tear them down at the same time which definitely fits the Brando theme.
The main villain will be SO avant garde and original, whoever it is.
I sort of read it that she moved to get away from Jodio's father... (also Diego could have gone out and 'boinked' a statesworth of prostitutes both while he was married to his wrinkly wife, AND in stopovers during the race...)
We got an au version of phantom blood, diamond is unbreakable and golden wind. Hopefully the next part is an au stardust crusaders
Part 7 was kind of a fusion of part 1 and 3. Considering who the final antagonist was
I don't think Araki is gonna go on after Jojolands, hes like 70 or 80 and he took 10 years to finish Jojolion, it might take another ten for Jojolands
new xforts video = good day
Plot twist: a fan though diego was just so hot they used d4c to get to him
Calling it now, jodio’s father made the family up and move to hawaii so he could look further into those rocks we’ve seen in rohans villa, then either went Brando dad mode and was just shitty (meaning he’s gonna be a future antagonist) or he went part 6 Jotaro mode and left to protect the family (meaning he’ll turn up later in the part, not sure what kind of alignment). Either that or he’s largely irrelevant to the story like Jotaro’s dad or Giorno’s and Jolyne’s mothers, and we don’t hear anything else about him save for maybe a couple of details.
Jodio's father is Alternate Universe Polnareff. I rest my case.
I would absolutely love for Jodio’s father to be a Brando descendant but Araki is the king of unpredictable mad lads he will probably make their father some random guy of no importance
his father is obviously the mechanism
I had always thought that Dio would want his children to have a better father figure, than he did and would want to be a good dad
I have a theory with no supporting evidence, but I bet the diamond jodio and the gang are looking for is an alternate universe version of the jesus parts, thats why its so valuable
THIS IS WHAT I’M SAYIN!!!!
It's the same universe, no?
@@sethbell2978 it is... so the diamond might actually be the SBR version of the Requiem Arrow
2:34 coming back I just thought, what if josefumi didn’t cheat on suzie q but instead he actually had a family in japan, got stuck in America and cheated on his original wife with suzie q
Banger video as usual.
Araki said that he’ll love to have a kid with dio in a interview so he’s gonna reveal that Jodio fathers was secretly him and Dio
Damn Xforts made it big. He has the telegram scammer bots now.
I shall now post my usually Jodio theory, that being perhaps we are taking his name to literal
Like he isn't the son of DIO(whatever that may mean in this context) but rather the son of former villians
I still hold this, but more specifically, he is, in some way, related to a rock human
Can we count the part where jouster tried to forge that lottery ticket as an ambition
Jodio's haircut reminds me of that one dinosaur pokemon
Diego must have had some kind of affair before he died being handsome and charming as he is. Its not impossible that he have child with another woman that continued the Brando bloodline, that somehow, fated to meet the Joestar again
It just dawned on me that if Dragona is black and Barbara Ann is white, then the father must also be black, and we only know one black character who is so passionate about DIO and the Joestars to name his son Jodio
My theory is that Jodios grandma(fathers side) might be au Pucci(charcaters having sex changes in the au are not that rare since Koichi turned to Yasuho and the Nijima bothers to Kei).
And even tho Jodio could suffer actual Antisocial dossorders i doubt he is that bad of a person(i know its the chliche where the psycho only uses his powers to hurt and or kill people who deserve it). I feel like Jodios morals will be ina more casual way? Where he will learn to self love and his selfworth on top of him thinking he might be bad but atleast he isnt as bad as *insert Villain*.
My theory is that his father is a descendant of Dario,since it was mentioned in SBR that Dario was still alive but that was the last we heard of him(Unresolved Plot-point),I'm gonna assume Jodio's father will link back to Dario
crazy ahh theory
scary monsters diego actually survived by using his dinosaur form to regenerate and live hundreds of years without aging as a dinosaur somewhere in nature paralleling DIO living hundreds of years as a vampire
Everybody gangsta til Jodio's father has the last name Brando:
*Diavolo Brando*
Speaking of predictions, I look forward to when see 4 more Giornos in Part 9 lol
