I hope you all enjoy!!! This is a video I personally worked on!!! Thank you guys for watching!
edit so a part of the video got copyright claimed so here's what I said in text form for those who got confused around the 21:45
"While feeding your family is noble, lying isn't. From what can be hypothesized, Jotaro has yet to tell them about the world of stands. A significant factor of the neglect/absence was probably due to him learning in Diamond is Unbreakable that dangerous stand users attract other dangerous stand users. From parts 3 to 6, there is an overwhelming majority of stand users who are just fucking psychopaths with a fucking kill on sight mindset. Due to being placed at the top of this world of stands, Jotaro and star platinum will constantly be challenged, as seen in parts 4 and 6. That leads Jotaro into this mindset of not involving his family in the dangerous adventures he is living in.
While noble, its kind of fucked up as this does lead to some trauma with Jolyne and some pretty high resentment towards him, which makes a bit of sense. How would you feel if you're sick, in jail, and need help from a father because you screwed up… but get no reply because he's too far away? But I can't blame the guy for this, maybe the job, but not him. But for the demise of enemy stand users, it does make some sense. For example, Yoshikage Kira, a serial killer with a body count of 48+ in both senses of the phrase, should not be allowed to reign free over Morioh and do whatever he wants, which is when Jotaro, the irregular justice, comes in. Kind of mirroring his part 3 speech with Kakyoin. Even though he does win against those evil forces, it cost him the love of his daughter and his wife, both of whom he cares very much about. The life he leads now is that of sadness, of an empty road only being walked by him, never to tell anybody how he feels."
Okay this was pretty high quality thank you for giving me such an experience Mister Metas ❤
I loved and respect this video Metas. I truly believe this is your magnum opus.
VERY good video!
u need go eat steak yum 🥩🥩🥩
Definitely worth the wait, you put Jotaro in a new light that was refreshing to see. Good job
I’ve watched Jojo probably six times, maybe more. When I originally watched part 3, I thought it was OK. But upon every subsequent rewatch, I grow more and more fond of it. The squad dynamic and the subtle beauty of Jotaro as a character. Now part three is my favorite. Jotaro = Best Jojo
Agreed, part 3 is my favourite too. It’s heavily underrated.
@@uc54321 i don't think underrated is the right word, maybe overhated
It's not the case for me, unfortunately. This is the part I watched the less (3 times) and the More I watched it, the More I thought it was meh-tier (originally : maybe 3rd fav part). But when it comes to part 4, it did the same thing as it did to you, while originally I disliked it a lot (only Kira and Rohan interested me), now I really like the part, and still hate Shigechi lol
@@d4spacetf2 fair enough
Part 3 is weird, it's everything at once: The quintessential Jojo experience. Araki was obviously still experimenting with Stands and their abilities, so you have a lot of one-dimensional Stands compared to later. The story is pretty simple. At the same time he nailed the squad and their personalities, I think only GW can compare. Also has very interesting enemies and abilities after arriving in Egypt.
When we needed him most.
He dissappear
😔
😔
😔
😔
I always interpreted Star Platinum and The World being the exact same type of Stand as Araki making a perfect ying and yang between Jotaro and DIO: Araki’s own professed ideal hero for the story and the main villain of the series being polar opposites and the ultimate story of good vs evil in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure
to piggyback when i watched the final fight on acid i noticed jotaro never attacks first, he always reacts to anothers aggresion and dispels it. He doesnt introduce aggresion at any point for a character that many would describe as cold. i think this is symbolized thru the buddhas palm golden idol on his hat as well
@@pokeosinisor I'm pretty sure that might also be the logo for Araki's company but i can see that interpretation as well
And also the way Jotaro unexpectedly had armor (books) under his clothes in order to protect himself from enemie's projectiles (DIO's knives) like in 15:17
HOLY I DID NOT NOTICE THAT
I really hate all the memes oversimplifying Jotaro until people genuinely forget all the good thins about him
How can you hate Jotaro when your favorite manga/anime character has some inspiration from him.
Joseph joestar and spike spiegel aren’t inspired by jotaro wym? (He’s my second favorite Jojo tho)
@@47FloridaManDre I'm referring to other animes/mangas outside of JJBA.
@@user-YTDerpyDDerp well you said “your favorite” lmao you didn’t specify the outside part. Also spike spiegel isn’t from Jojo
@@47FloridaManDre you: “☝️🤓 umm actually my favorite character is older”
@@47FloridaManDre weird how this youtube comment doesn't apply perfectly to you specifically
After watching parts 3-6, my impression of jotaro is that he is very compassionate. He doesn’t let his emotions show, mostly. But when his cool demeanour is slightly off, you can see he really cares for his friends and family (when he smiles, laughs, or protects the ones he cares for).
METAs, i think you missed a very very, VERY, important aspect of Jotaro's character. Jotaro doesn't kill; he kills only those where there is no other choice. At the beginning of part 3 he says he's afraid that he's gonna kill him someone with the evil spirit. He even says in the fight against Kakyoin, that he thinks it can be more savage than him. Kakyoin lost so much blood and rip up the school, he shudda died!. He then goes on to take out every opponent, but not kill them. The only one he's ever killed was Dio. And there's also the fact that he even when beat down Kira, he didnt kill him. Jotaro's power is up there with Dio's, Diavolo's, Kira, and Josuke. And like Superman, he holds himself back. He chooses to not do more than necessary. And kinda like with Jolyne, he probably doesn't think its necessary to tell her that he always cared. But in his last moments he wanted to make sure she knew. Even Jolyne kinda did the same with how she recounted herself stealing that car.
@organicelephant5416 for the most part, yeah. And Superman holds back a lot. I remmeber my friend saying "Steely Dan has to be dead after that". But no, he's still alive. Just horribly beaten up. And Jotaro like Superman does beat up the bad guys. But Jotaro hasnt killed unless with the enemy there was no other answer. As for Kira, not sure what all of them planned to do after beating him down.
He literally ripped out a part of Dark Blue Moon's head and then let False Tenille sink
Had to look that one up, yeah hes dead lol. Given the situation, i can see that there was no way imposter Tenille would survive, no matter how Jotaro beat him, given that they both were way underwater. He'd eithe drown under after being pummeled or drown after that Star Finger. And given Jotaro couldnt get out of that situation any other way, just resorted to that method. Also possible that since it was his first time doing that, he probably didnt expect the damage to be that severe, since later he uses it on Strength and he did it just enough to pierce his skull but not enough to kill him. But who knows for sure
The blind dude in the desert also died to Jotaro
@redrazor1960 jotaro didnt kill N'Doul tho. N'doul was punched by Jotaro but Jotaro even says that he held back. N'Doul did it to himself, knowing that Jotaro left him alive, so they can use Hermit Purple on him by Joseph Joestar to read his mind and learn more about Dio and his powers and hiding place. Those that were close to Dio would have that info
Jotaro IS JOJO. He is the MAIN JOJO, the most iconic JOJO, he is in 4/9 parts, 3 as a Major Character and 1 as a Minor Character, 1 as a Protagonist. He has probably the strongest BASE main character stand (start of their part) and is an amazing character who never falters.
I don't understand the hate that Jotaro gets when it comes to his characterization. As someone who has watched Clint Eastwood movies before watching JoJo, I get where Araki got his inspiration from.
I mean it is bound the haters are the other Jojo part fans
Because if u think propo
Jotaro has the most screentime and he is well-known for talking spotlight from mc in pt4 and pt6
And the west minority hates him due to him being a gigachad
@@adityannairfybscitb2656 I like Jotaro in parts 4 and 6. In 4 he takes up the role of mentor for Josuke just like Joseph did for him in part 3. In part 6 he shows that his stoicism is a key aspect of his character to keep his family out of danger, but in the end he sacrificed himself to protect Jolyne. He's not even in my favorite part, SBR but that doesn't take away that he's still a good character.
@@SneedBass in later parts a side as a side character and a father figure role
Jotaro did way better than joesph
Joesph didn't even felt like a mentor
Who can u view as a threat
Unlike jotaro who was the final boss in pt4 and everyone was afraid of him
And in pt4 where joesph takes the role of a father it wasn't that good he met josuke that it found a invincible girl
On the other hand jotaro as the father figure was handed over the duty to protect his daughter
But that same daughter was his weakness and a hindrance if u think
Whenever she is there she is bound to be a target
So Im the end because of her jotaro loses
Jotaro weakness are the people around him
I like pt 3 jotaro unlike other Jojo who are kind-hearted or show emotions he was the only brutal one
He didn't gave death to the enemies
He gave them more fierce trauma
By permanently handicapping them
No one hate him, he’s literally speaking nonsense.
Because he's not gay
I'm still of the opinion that Jotaro was more interesting to watch in other parts than the one he was the main character in.
Ye I think that has a lot to do with establishing his character initially and then having him grow older and interacting with new characters
part 4 jotaro was by far my favorite version of him, he was still a badass powerhouse but he had done away with his delinquent behavior, replacing it with a much deeper and more interesting maturity which i enjoyed a LOT.
The type of character he is does make him more suited to "Supporting Veteran" than "Growing Main Character"
I absolutely agree
"I can't beat the shit out of you without getting closer" is the best line ever.
Jotaro is a interesting character when you think about it, similar to the rest of the members of his family, he had to face darkness in the world at a really young age. Like his grandfather, he stayed alive long enough to keep fighting and travelling the world to see how much darkness was out there and would it come back to haunt him. The sad truth about it was yes.
He found Josuke, learned of the arrows and had to fight the serial killers and psychopaths in Morio. He was worried about Giorno, though as far as we know, they never ended up crossing. Then finally sacrificing himself to go help his daughter and save the world, only not being able to do both.
He was my favorite Joestar until I watched Josuke and Giorno go through their journeys
So not for long.
you had me agreeing till i read that last line 💀
Have you read part 7 or 8?
@@wishofalifetime not yet but I will get to them when official releases come out.
Don't get me wrong I see I'm closer to Johnny then any of the Joestars and Gabbi is interesting
In the end the influence of dio is destroyed and inspired someone (Emporio) to fight for the fate of the world.
Just rewatched part 3. Best characters, best stands, best stand NAMES, great plot, and a closer look really shows you who jotaro really is as a character.
I should not need to watch it twice to understand Jotaro and this is the biggest flaw with the part. Does he have good moments? Yeah some really good ones too. But like 90% of the time he is just hanging around doing nothing and perfectly guessing the enemy's stand or strategy based of like nothing. I get that he is smart but its just plot convenience like 70-80% percent of the time. Its really weird because he actually has a personality in part 4.
@@ryanjewel6826 agree
@@ryanjewel6826he is a warrior what do u want him to don
Do you want him to act like a goofball or act like a pathetic kid who shows emotions
He is just a serious guy who thinks about himself and isn't interested in other works
Definitely not but whatever you say part 3 has the most bs and weak story in fights you can tell araki was still trying to figure out what he wanted to do
@@maccamachinedefinitely, but saying that its the weakest is definitely an understatement
I'd like to add that EVEN AFTER his memory was taken, he still was able to somewhat remember Jolyene, as well as stand up and be consciouse a bit longer, and from what we see when he cuts himself in his coma and the damage is shared with Jolyene, his love for his family is literally ingrained into him, practically always *fated* to put his loved ones first, and Pucci knew this.
He knew Jotaro, or any Joestar, would be unable to sacrifice their loved ones due to the strong bonds they hold for them, literally making it impossible for them to deny their fate and sacrifice them for the greater good.
I got this realiztation of his literal igrained love for his family when we see Jolyene remember what Jotaro said to her, while she just finished her fight with Dragon's Dream.
And I also figured that's also why Jotaro, the absolute bringer of Justice who, we see, would be willing to play dirty/use any means necessary to defeat his opponent, literally unable to do anything but save his daughter.
Atleast, that last part was how I saw it.
I also want to mention that many people often miss-interpet the part 6 ending
Araki stated that, while none of the dead souls would be cross to the Pucciverse, they did indeed return in the Ireneverse due to Pucci no longer being part of the Universe, as Made in Heaven's reset technically made him outside the Universe thus why he had absolute control of fate (though him altering Emporio's fate is what got him because while he was not directly part of the Universe due to him being outside of fate, he still directly interfiered with Emporio accidently giving him the chance to level the battlefield, making him touchable: other wise, Pucci would literally have been untouchable due to his presence outside of fate and everyone still bound to theirs). Jolyene's name went to Irene, likely indicating the "Jo" was likely a representation of their fate to fight against the dark forces of evil, and since Pucci died technically no longer bound to the Universe and resting it once more, he was no longer part of the original history that we saw before. The events of parts 1-5 happened, but Weather Report never got switched and lived a happy life, Ermes's sister is alive and well, Jolyene never got into that incedent and Jotaro likely stayed with his family due to the lack of Pucci causing stand users to go after him constantly, likely meaning he stayed with his wife and daughter as a hapy family man.
Now wether the souls actually returned, I must admit, I only say this due to me seeing several people mentioning Araki stated this and I personally never looked into it, so I could be wrong, but Pucci is no longer part of this history and thus they part 6 cast did live better lives, with the exception of F.F., due to her being a stand/plankton colony plus was made with the help of Pucci, and Emporio, due to Pucci's intervention also effectively taking him outside of the Universe technically like he was. It's still, none the less, bittersweet but I still really love it.
@@shotaaizawa1206what interview does Araki say Pucci isn't in the new universe? Even with the death of FF she says even if they revive her it wouldn't be the same FF though it would look similar (foreshadowing the ending to an extent) her. Araki even doubles down on that sentiment in Part 7. I think a possible interpretation is there's a new version of everyone, including Pucci, in the reset universe, living a better life.
@@shotaaizawa1206 wait, so how would the events of 1-5 parts happen if the jostar family was bound to the fate of the JO's, if part 3 never happened and jotaro still lived the man with no name character in his life without stands, that would mean that the star dust crusaders would have never met, kakiyoin would have had a better life and so on T^T im stupid, forgive me if i got anything wrong lol
@@timtapp5931Well dio probably never met pucci this time around
@@justasadboi6597They were all bound to their fates, just not Jolyne because Pucci was her antagonising force.
He's not alone!
He's with the platinum team!
Ikr
Homie literally saves a photo of the gang to reminisce
I’m glad you’re giving Jotato and Stardust crusader’s some love after dealing with a huge portion of the fandom constantly badmouthing the part and Jotaro as a whole.
The scale is quite inferior
And u should also know jotaro is the most popular Jojo and pt3 is the most popular and most sold jojo too
The hate comes from the woke west who hates his badass ideology
@@organicelephant5416 i mean if u see the comments about it
The audience hate him because he is too much serious
What they want is a fun or a comedic type
Or a mc which shows emotions
U know jotaro personality
Hollywood likes normal men praising women constantly
But jotaro ignores their existence
If they try to act funny jotaro will fuck them
Well that is his character and people don't like it
@@adityannairfybscitb2656 do you still have enough to talk nonsense, jotarotard?
Thank you for this in depth character video about Jotaro. You put into words why Jotaro is my favorite Jojo
When jotaro cares about someone, he will go to Egypt and back for them
Another possibility on why Star Platinum and The World have the same ability, besides similar tarot cards and family shenanigans, is the way that Jonathan's distress signal works.
We're told that the awakening of Jotaro, Joseph, Holy, and even Josuke's Stands are because of Jonathan's body sending a signal to the rest of the Joestars that DIO has awakened. The way I always interpreted it is that the signal awakening in them the exact Stands they needed to stop DIO. Joseph received a stand that could find DIO, Holy received a stand that would encourage them to track him down, and Jotaro received the only stand that could actually beat DIO.
This is just a theory, but it's an interpretation I personally really like, and seeing as something like Jonathan's signal never really happens again, it seems plausible.
I’d never thought about it but when you brought up the fight with DIO, I realised how “Wild West” the fight was. It basically turns into a quick-draw with time-stop as the pistols.
Thank you finally someone standing up for my boy😭😭
I never was a great fan of Jotaro. Especially in part 3. However, in my eyes he redeem himself in the fight against Dio and also with his presence in following parts. He became truly remarkable character climaxing with his love for Jolyne.
I feel like other JoJo’s are much better in their respective arcs, but Jotaro received a character development through out 3-4 parts, which makes him really “slow-baked” person and finally receiving an ending he deserved the most. A peace.
Jotaro in the beginning was able to stop a bullet. Later on in the show you see that Dio did the same thing, showing they had the same kind of speed. They also throughout the show say Star Platinum was the fastest stand.
Weird, didnt really see much jotaro hate at all though maybe i havent looked at the right places.
My thoughts:
I always just saw jotaro as an extension of the heros journey followed through in both its entirety and aftermath. From his protagonist days in stardust crusaders to a more veteran role tutoring future seekers of justice in morioh to his more background "retirement" time in part 5 and finally the conclusion of part 6 with the aftermath of his prime days finally catching up to him. Its a theme other anime mangas are still exploring to this day like jjk, mushoku tensei and the upcoming anime frieren: beyond journeys end. Just the question and answer of "what happens after" the look we get into the end of the protagonists story we all know would happen eventually but dont exactly see past the moving credits. All heros die eventually, all stories end its just a matter of what we, as the audience, are privy too. Pretty similar ideas to yours.
I mean there is a hate
Some hate from other Jojo fans due to jotaro being the only Jojo who takes the mc spotlight in pt4 and pt6
Defeating kira and nearly killing pucchi which some west fans doesn't like
Next
He is too much of a Sigma and a gigachad he is not a simp people doesn't like his macho attitude
Only in west
In Japan he is the most popular Jojo with most fanbase
Hey metas, I was wondering if their were any similarities or correlations to Jotaro and why the Star Tarot card was chosen and it’s meanings.
Meaning: When the Star card appears, you are likely to find yourself feeling inspired. It brings renewed hope and faith and a sense that you are truly blessed by the universe at this time. Astronomy, Good health, Hope, Inspiration, Opportunities, Despair, Disappointments, Illness, Missed opportunities?
I ain't metas but as a seasoned jojo fan i can tell you that in part 4, whenever jotaro shows up everybody know they got a chance. Basically hope personified.
@@Cr055edplus in part 6 the dolphin street gangs only plan for made in heaven was “keep Jotaro alive, the rest of us have no chance against him”
@@Cr055ed what this guy said
Missed opportunities, that definitely applies to part 6. Jotaro could have stopped Pucci several times, but he did the wrong thing for the right reason.
Jotaro is the representation of jojo
totally agree. Araki has such great stories.
you cant talk about those westerns without mentioning Ennio Morricone :)
The first time that I watched the Stand Proud op I respected Jotaro.
The part when all of the legacy of the Joestar’s falls on his back and he stand up is frisson inducing to me.
Jotaro is my favorite JoJo. He’s always proactively thinking which is why he isn’t super talkative. He’s problem solving. He does this mentally. It would be weird if he narrated his own thoughts. And he is always coming up with i sane solutions that totally work. He has to do this because he is usually in a dangerous situation and he’s the one who’s going to save the day. To think he’s only a punching machine or cold is absurd. He’s just internal. And he’s a total boss. Jotaro IS JoJo.
Jotaro is an amazing character, I’ve always loved him so much
Finally someone actually talk about this, we needed so much this video, it always baffled me how many people hate so much this character, since its by far the main protagonist of the first universe (with most appearances) and the best written character by Araki by this far, its kind of a masterpiece on its own looking at all the details and conclusions you need to brought back to analyse and build the character onwards. Glad you did it, great video, keep making this stuff! .
Jotaro also was the one to jump-start the mangas popularity and in fact was so popular that Araki actually uses the Jotaro baseplate for every Jojo character before making them unique (least as far as I remember what Araki said, you can search it up and see)
@@ubahabdi3500 yeah jotaro was his great milestone in terms of his mangaka career lol
@@snneakydevili mean araki made a game of jojo and jotaro was the main protagonist
Name of game is over heaven written by araki
Jotaro is the most popular Jojo and the leader of jojo but the west simply hates him because he is too much sigma
@@adityannairfybscitb2656😭😭😭yeah like literally, western fandom is kinda weird sometimes
Jotaro has always been my favorite. Had no idea he was based on Clint Eastwood. That makes me love his character even more. I hate that so many people look at him on such a surface level.
Jotaros english dub voice actor is Matthew Mercer who is also the voice of Overwatch's Cassidy (McCree), who is a gunslinger cowboy!
Jotaro is a clever strong and lonley hero
Bc he outsmarts villons
I grew up watching those old Eastwood westerns. Every year we’d get Clint Eastwood western week where they’d play one movie a night all week. They also had Bruce Lee Week. That was awesome too. You see Clint was the definition of cool. So I don’t get it when someone doesn’t love Jotaro because he is just like Clint in those amazing movies. Maybe being cool isnt cool anymore. So yeah, Jotaro is my favorite JoJo. And that means something because each JoJo is awesome in their own way. But Jotaro is the guy we all wanted to be when we were young. For reference sake I was born in the 70s.
Great vid, definitely worth the wait. Now I can send this to my friends when they say that Jotaro got no emotion
Jotaro Will Always be my favorite JoJo. I don't care what people say (my favorite character is gyro followed by bucciarati, but jotaro is my favorite JoJo), he's just so misunderstood. He was traumatized at 17, having seen his friends die and having to kill a person who almost killed him, then he had to live a life of loneliness defending people from stand users. He just suffered so much, I'm so happy that in the end he gets to live happily, he can finally take a break. He had the most bizarre adventure of all, while he just wanted one normal night.
I like how all of Kakyoin’s blood got punched out after the Jotaro beat down, he was fine the next day
My favorite jojo character finally getting recognition
More than a month of hype leading up to this drop let's go.
Yoo he started playing "Me Time" when talking about the DIO fight
In the ending of stone ocean, all of the souls were the same. Theyre exactly the samw people, just pucci dying in the universe that revolves around him made everything get reset, and pucci stopped existing, so they went back to the first universe but pucci was erssed from time
I always really loved Jotaro but never knew why. Thank you for opening my eyes as to why I love this character
Fantastic video!! ❤❤ Jotaro is my absolute fav character in anime and seeing the thought that Araki put behind his personality and growth makes him even more special 🥹 I love the idea that Jotaro is an elaboration on the lone hero trope that shows the humanity beyond the heroic selflessness.. the life of a lone hero is definitely lonely 😭 and I think Jotaro in part 6 really exemplifies this
This was an amazing video! Worth the wait for sure!
Bro when I finished part 3, I fucking cried for like two days. I’m glad I got to watch it, and the buildup from 1-3 is amazing!
this video is about to blow up, big time. excellent job
Finally, somebody highlighted the gunslinging western/stardust crusader connection. Jotaro Kujo, the fastest gun in the west.
I been waiting for this video
and you delivered a great one 👍
You've captured my feelings on Jotaro. I honestly didn't vibe with him at first, but he's grown on me significantly over time and became my 2nd fav Jojo
Kenshiro from fist of the north star is the OG loner and all he wants is his lady back
Both Kenshiro and Jotaro are the OGs
Bruh IDK why but Part 4 jotaro has and still is my favourite version of Jotaro I think It's because I like how they handled the whole previous main character to mentor thing, they made him wise and feeling like a mentor but still kept him feeling like the same character plus, they didn't nerf him into oblivion like they did Joseph for part 3
People actually dislike Jotaro? Bro he's the coolest character in the entire series and possibly in the entirety of fiction, wtf. Huge Clint Eastwood fan too so its a major plus that Jotaro was inspired by him.
Thats what im talking about!!! That’s why he’s the MVP!! That’s why he’s the GOAT... THE GOAT!!!
When you put it that way, that sounds metal AF.
This is so deep and i definitely agree with you Meta about Jotaro! That is why he is my best jojo, a silent hero that saves everyone and protecting his family, and not bragging about it.
we’ve been waiting for this one!!!
I love Jotaro so much.
Thank you for the video.
Was waiting for this since you announced it man 😁
I've watched jojo's 9 times now from part 1 to part 6. The series is goated I can't believe there's people out there that would miss out just because it looks different and part one is typical classic tropes but still, if they were a little patient and open minded they would strike literal gold. And I'm saying this as someone that did almost miss out because when I was younger I thought the art style looked weird and I thought it was just a stupid meme show, then I thought I'll give it a try. I never had a favorite anime until I watched jojo's. And part one got me intrested, part two got me hooked and once I got to part 3 I instantly decided to binge watch it all. After part 5 I knew this shit is fucking god tier definitely worthy of my favorite anime, good openings good endings they tell a good story and actually have great endings. The stories never go on and on and become boring. Araki inspired me to try and create my own story, Miura and Kubo were also contributing factors.
Tbh, as much as it's sad, how can you blame the guy for trying to keep his family away, after ALL the god dam psychos he meet. Just think about people like dio, kira, the Darby's, Tower of grey, Aqua necklace, (the guy with the stand Seth), death 13, the god dam rat. Like imagine you as a father know that there are going to be dozens (or even hundreds) of them going after you and ultimately using your daughter to get to you (like Pucci did).
Edit: i mean in general not you specifically blaming him.
One of the greatest vids ever
HOLY HELL, I have a serious newfound appreciation for Part 3 DIO!
I always just accepted DIO as the big bad of part 3, but I never considered the thematic weight of his appearance. Jotaro views stands as the ultimate invisible gun, a weapon that can be used in plain day and harm innocents without repercussion.
If Jotaro embodies a judge-executioner exercising "the law" on twisted stand users, then DIO embodies the ultimate criminal. He kills in the night, can exist within a *world* all his own and escape the consequences. Jotaro receiving a similar ability frames him as an avatar for the forces of good, similar to Gioeno in Part 5. This rabbit hole is DEEP AF
Absolutely amazing video
The first three parts get better and better the more you rewatch them, the squad dynamics and the overall setting of these parts just hits difference as compared to the rest of the parts, they feel like they're the last of pure JoJoness.
Aaaaaa I was so exited for this
I appreciate this video so much
At first I was one of the fans who really didn't like him. I never thought he was bad, I just thought he was very boring in comparison to the other far more animated characters in Part 3. After reading part 4, I went back and decided to reread Part 3 and found more subtleties. He's not bland or stiff... he's just quiet. What solidified my full turn around on the character was Part 6. While Jolyne is my favorite JoJo, Jotaro's interactions with her gave him even more of the depth I initially thought he lacked. His quiet nature in 6 specifically was saddening and it shows just how much the events with DIO had weighed on him. He's quiet and distant from her in part because he was dealing with Yoshikage Kira, but also because DIO forever changed him. He can't let his daughter get hurt as he pursues the remnants of DIO's followers. He will love and protect her in the only way he can tragically think of. Cut her off and isolate himself no matter how much it hurt.
For me, Stone Ocean finally, fully highlighted the tragedy behind Araki's definition of a hero. The tragic loneliness of the man with no name.
Jotaro Kujo is truly One of the Greatest Protagonist to Ever be Written.
At 21:42 the audio goes quiet
Watching this cause I saw his tweet about it and want to support his hard work
Is that “The lamp is low” in the background?!?! I love that song!!!
Was waiting on this onr
i dont know if everyone noticed but in the intro everytime they were shown after the episodes that led to the end of dio they showed the way all of the crusaders died or got hurt
20:25 I’m still trying to figure out how he was ripped in half yet is connected when we see him in a wheelchair, this beat down is insane and no one should survive that
Italian science is the second greatest in the world
The way they were using their stands to move at the end super jumping and shit was fucking sick.
After going over the anime parts I like jotaro more and more.
Part 3 gets enjoyable
Bro delivered
Jotaro is just a guy who thinks violence is the answer with friends that actually give value to friendship and their actions. Jotaro is empty unlike them he doesnt do talks and only punches. As the time goes on and he loses his friends and sees his grandpas life fade before his eyes he started giving value to things. As we see him at the end smiling at a photo of him and his friends. He starts a hobby a family and a bond between him and koichi. He is the best at character development. And he had a lot of time to develop it. Thats the reason he stayed till the part 6. He is the best for a reason.
This goes so hard.
META you probably wont get a chance to read this but those things you were saying about part 3 left me baffled in the beginning. I must not be online enough because all my friends talk about how much they love part 3 and the thing that made it so fun was its "Villian of the Week" type writing. They enjoyed the thrill of not knowing what crazy person, animal or thing could have a stand and try to attack the hero's. 😂 Either way, amazing video
Part 6 jotaro is my favorite version.
Great analysis
I liked the manga where star platinum looked like Jotaro, but also the gradual change into it’s own personal form while still being the same as jotaro’s fire to fight for what he deems as right.
I’ve thought this for so long
And they call me jotaro simp when i say that he has character depth is not just a bland protagonist
Because of part 3 i got into jojo. I dropped it after part 2 and 3 years i don't why i watched part 3 and i fell in love with jojo.
Finally i just subbed a one month ago im Finally early for a video not one or two years after upload
Amazing video
Jotaro actually still fought and killed DIO in the Ireneverse, but he was finally able to end it there. No pucci, which mean no part 6 plot. But 4 and 5 still happen because pucci wasn't involved
Can’t talk about a western duel style battle without the end of the n’doul fight.
Certified Jotaro Moment
21:47 I've been enjoying the video and character breakdown, but there seems to be some kind of issue right around here where the audio completely shuts down. Lasted until about 23 minutes.
I think there was a copyright issue or something, but you can still read what he said, just read the pinned comment he narrates it there friend
LET'S GOOOOO FINALLY 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
you got a audio problem,when you introduced part of part 4 and until you introduced part 6 after that,in between that the audio just got suddenly silenced.
I like to think that Jotaro being able to move in Dio's World time stop is the "we're the same" trope that villains pull on the hero so very often like with the Batman and the Joker. Except, in this one, we see if from the Villain's perspective. They are the same people, but their purposes define their characters
When Jotaro is thinking, he usually freezes for a second to think about his options, and to me, i think thats why he was able to stop time. Dio, on the other hand, wanted power over anything else. I think these two motives made them both develop time stop for different reasons, and to me that was why it wasnt BS that jotaro could time stop.
Wait is the Clint Eastwood inspiration why Jotaro talks like McCree in the english dub or is it just that Matt Mercer really likes using the McCree OW/Yasuo LoL voice
It’s just Matt lol
