Jotaro's dad is a Jazz musician, but he grew up without a male figure so he emulated his life on Clint Eastwood movies. So those are the 2 influences for the theme.
When was it revealed he was influenced by clint eastwood movies lmao, the author did watch them. But his character "statistics" didn't say they influenced his behavior
Fun fact: The character of Jotaro is heavily inspired by Clint Eastwood, so he's actually designed to be incredibly badass. "Just in the way he stands, Eastwood projects a commanding presence backed by inteligence and discipline. As a character based on that image, so too does Jotaro pose an intimidating figure just by standing with his hand in his pocket" ~Hirohiko Araki in his book "Manga In Theory And Practice"
Jotaro is known for suddenly turning the tides of battles and he is one of the strongest characters often finishing the fights with a barrage of fists usually turning every bone of his opponent into dust so his theme has constantly changing tones and quiet menacing pauses followed up with big bold triumphant outbursts And his dad is a sax player so maybe thats why theres so much brass
And I actually think it would be the best if he listened to "Killer" and right after "Another face, Same mind". The first Kira theme gives me goosebumps and the second gives me an urge to run really fast like there was an actual serial killer after me. Scary stuff. Villains themes in general are a must.
Variety is a good way to describe Jojo. The story begins in the late 1800s and follows the Joestar bloodline jumping from one generation to the next. Each time changing protagonist, setting, antagonist ect. Over the course of 30s years the series changes alot starting out admittingly cheesy and evolving into a very unique thing of its own that equally cool/funny/strange.
I honestly found the earlier seasons to be more genuine and not as cheesy as the modern ones. Vol. 1-3 were cheesy to be sure but they really leaned into it, I feel like the later volumes didn’t really capture the same qualities that made the first three as iconic and memorable as I see them
JoJo's music can be epic, heroic, weird, menacing and even more. As for the menacing part, the villain theme(actually two themes for the same villain) that fits this category the most is Kira's theme: *"Killer"* and *"Another face, Same mind"* are made by Yugo Kanno, the same composer that did Jotaro's theme and Giorno's theme. These two songs show how versatile he can be writing music. One moment we're in for a main character fight against a major villain(Jotaro's or Giorno's theme playing) and in another moment we're being chased by a serial killer(Kira's themes).
When you watched Stardust Crusaders, 11:41 is the moment the MC outplayed the opponent. The feeling is good as if you outplayed someone by simply listening to it.
I don;t know if anyone else has mentioned this or pointed it out but Jotaro's dad is a literal jazz musician who is always on tours and stuff in the series! So sometimes Jojo fans will jokingly say "Jotaro's dad returned just long enough to make this track after not being in his life for like 15 years"
As a fan of this show, these pieces always feel like an encapsulation of the character itself through the show. Every departure, translation, return, distraction, return again feels like you could point to the episode or moment it’s supposed to represent. These are always such amazing pieces that are perfect for a show called Bizarre Adventure.
Yugo Kanno has made themes for almost every character who appears in the series as of his starting with this third Part, Stardust Crusaders. & that barely scratches the surface even then. Also - this could potentially be one of, if not, the first theme he created for the entire series back as early as 2013 - maybe even earlier. This debuted with the teaser trailer for JoJo SdC back in December 2013, and it aired on April 4th, '14
I just started watching the JoJo series at the beginning of this year (it’s all on Hulu) and it is fantastic. Honestly, I thought it was a little weird at first but it grows on you very quickly. Every season is fresh and unique in its own way (reflecting the new JoJo family protagonist) with a several nostalgic threads of continuity. I’m on Josuke’s season now just having finished Jotaro’s. Jotaro’s season might be one of my favorite in all of anime. It’s a globetrotting broventure and Jotaro’s one of the coolest characters ever. Definitely give it a watch.
Josuke's season is my favorite, and then giorno's season (the one right after josuke's) is my second favorite. So you haven't even gotten to the good stuff yet!
I really love how diverse this show's music is. Even villain themes are extremely different. For example, you can listen to "The pillar men" and "Dio's theme" back to back - completely different experience.
The amount of variety in this song also matches the variety in Jojo in general, the show is called Jojo Bizarre Adventure and the music is truly bizarre aswell, the music truly fits the show in all ways possible.
The solos make a lot of sense because all them solos are literally Jotaro, he is the main JoJo btw and he is kinda a solo hero (he has a group but when it comes down to it everything always comes down to Jotaro)
If it helps conceptualize why the themes are composed the way they are then remember they are character themes so they have been designed so that the sound team can cut clips of this song and insert it into the show so it needs to fit properly with the tone of several different fights and character moments.
14:07 Jesus, *YES!* Subscribing just because of this comment!! Do react to the series, it has great music troughout the entire run! The series is currently in it's sixth season and this theme is from season three. If you thought the audio was crazy, wait till you experience it alongside the visuals!! ;)
Honestly I’d suggest just doing them all lol. There are also compilation videos of JoJo protagonists, JoJo villains, and JoJo side characters themes! Looking forward to watching this
Some of the decisions you can know by context, the dubstep is there because at the time dubstep was the thing a lot of anime were doing, it was the trend of the industry, the jazz is there because jotaro's father (a character that is only mentioned exactly once and has literally 0 relevance) is said to be a famous jazz musician, the agresive guitar riffs and shredding are something that jotaro would probably like being a rebel 17 y/o from the 80s and I imagine the rest of diversity is derived from the fact that that season is inspired by around the world in 80 days so they wanted to do something similar in the musical aspect One that would be interesting to see your reaction to is "awken" or "the pillarmen theme"
You should analyse all the Jobro's(Jojo's friends and partners) themes. There's a video by Sticky Crimson that collected them all. They are all insanely different from each other, and I think you would have a blast analysing each one.
Can't wait for Josukes theme! And Jonathan's, and Joseph's.. Man, they all cool. And I hope u gonna do "jobro" themes. There is a lot of cool stuff, like Stroheim's theme, Kakyoin, Iggy, Koichi, Narancia's theme, and more!
Another important thing to note about the show and specifically its use of this music is that most of these themes are going to be playing during the most climactic moments of each episode. The show is set up as a heavily combat-focused show, with combat being based on weird, unpredictable, and highly specific powers. The characters are often playing strategic mind games as much as they are engaging in physical combat, with the protagonists generally disoriented and trying to figure out what exactly they’re fighting against and how to beat the antagonist of the week. When these character themes play, it’s almost always underscoring the climactic moment when the main protagonist figures out what’s going on or how to beat their opponent, normally in some backwards, odd, and… bizarre way. The complexity and chaotic nature of the themes are so good for conveying the utter mind-melting, jaw-dropping, edge-of-your-seat conclusions to different battles as the protagonist succeeds in their crazy plan and gets the chance to absolutely wreck the antagonist of the week, usually displaying their own creative use of their powers and turning them into a pulp. The themes are fantastic for pulling the audience into a crazy, complex, but compelling world and then hitting them with the most badass moments of catharsis imaginable
I love the build in this song, a lot like the character. Doesn't start out super complicated, but that main melody has so much power to it and while it's simple at first just the guitar, you really feel it by the time the band and the other strings come in to give it those layers.
"I want to know how the composer put 6 different genres into 5 minutes of music but still made it thematically coherent" The answer you're looking for is acid.
While you are waiting for thsi video to come out check out my ranking Dead by Daylight Game Music Video ⏩ruclips.net/video/-vusz9NL88Q/видео.html For live content catch me on Twitch. www.twitch.tv/drumrolltony
During the piano solo I'd never noticed before how wild the guitar was going in the background. Every time I listen to so many of the songs from Jojo's I pick up on something new!
You should totally do Kakyoin's theme (also from Stardust Crusaders) as well as the rest of the JoJo's main character themes, also love the reactions too! I love how you analyze the songs instead of just listening and saying "that's cool."
for some context, that melody around 2:26 SLAPS and it gets progressively more intense and 11:40 usually kicks in whenever Jotaro reveals some major discovery or moment that makes him suddenly overcome whatever enemy he's fighting. You basically know whenever that comes on that the bad guy's really screwed now.
I definitely recommend Speedwagon's theme, it's so underated for how good it is, it's a little short but really cool. Can't wait to see you react to more Jojo music!
If you look up the stand names. Literally almost all of them are named by Bands, Song and different Artists that inspired Araki when making Jojos characters. Im pretty sure youve been told 1million times lol. But the fact that Araki takes American music history into his creation and makes it his own is so beautiful
I would love a breakdown of the Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood openings and endings, I feel like you’d be able to dig deep in their unique stylings and enjoy the variety
As you kinda already noticed the Themes heavily represent the chars. For example you were waiting for the drop but Jotaro doesnt drop, he just takes a breath (short intercourse). And hes hard and badass on the outside, like the majority of the song but actually verry all over the place emotionally, hence all these genre mixes.
I really like the "dubstep/drop" parts that really pull you out of the funk and groove, because the show actually uses base notes/dubstep wubs as a sound design cue for a power that Jotaro winds up using, and making the connection between that in the show and the character theme, as well as it musically kind of feeling like it's pulling you out of the music and putting the funk on pause, is really thematically appropriate and shows you just how much care they put into both the music and sound design of the anime.
Dude, Crazy Noisy Bizarre Town is my most favorite Jojo music piece because of how good the lyrics are and the song is just so good. You are in for a pleasant surprise with Jojo’s music.
This theme is great and it is used at just the right moments in the show, i love how cool but fierce this track sounds and at times it’s just showing off with the saxophone solo, and the song is so well utilized and fits the character so well that whenever you think of jotaro you are almost always also thinking of this song, and in my opinion that is just because the people that made this have such a high level of awareness not only of quality music but also character thematics which just makes me dizzy trying to think about how you’d write something with all that in mind
This video was great! (As always) Personal recommendations would be "Pillar Men Theme" and "Avalon" for dubsteb, "Decisive Battle Overslapping Destinies" for orchestra, "Overdrive" for rap, and I'm sure a lot of people are recommending many others so that's it for me. By the way those songs I recommended were composed by a different person so they might have a different feeling, but they're still amazing!
I guess while we're on Part 3, you should check "Noble Hierophant" ("Kouketsunaru Kyoukou" in Japanese). It's the theme for the JoBro, Noriaki Kakyoin, in Part 3, and I think it's one of the best character themes in the entire series.
@@felipevasconcelos6736 Both are valid translations of the Japanese, but Noble Hierophant is technically more accurate because it references his Stand.
The triplet thing you mentioned is a dubstep sound lmao. They literally inserted a random dubstep drop. Dubstep typically used the filter being automated to duck out the sound rhythmically, and often used triplets to contrast the typically heavily syncopated 4/4 rhythm of the drums.
I'm loving your reactions! An all time favorite (and I'm sure everybody agrees) is Gut's Theme from Berserk. It just hits different. Unravel from Tokyo Ghoul as well. It got memed to death but it really is a fine piece of music.
Not only the main JoJo's but also Kakyoin and Kira's themes too, glad you're loving them as much as us though man, its always great to see peoples reaction to anything JoJo but to have you break down these things in a way nobody else has is so refreshing :)
I know you've already listened to the Jojo intros, but if you're interested in something really cool, I'd suggest listening to the first intro's full version. So No Chi No Sadame has some jaw-dropping vocal work toward the end that isn't actually in the intro as it plays in the show. Highly recommended.
This needs to be stated because when you think about it, it makes perfect sense. Jotaro's theme is a perfect encapsulation of part three, being such a road trip or globe trotting adventure of different musical themes and styles that mirrors the actual theme and setting of the season so amazingly.
I really enjoy your analysis of such great music that stays a bit hidden outside of this community. I'd love to hear your thoughts on Kakyoin's theme (Virtuous Pope)
I had my JoJo era in 2018-2020, I was absolutely obsessed with JoJo. Going to listen Jotaro's theme again after some years of going deeply into the world of music got me like: "This is the most beautiful mess I ever listened to." Like, bro there's a lot of instruments and different solos in just one theme.
You should listen to Avalon, if i remember, it's only played one time in the show, in one of the more cheesy, menacing, weird and epic moments of season 2. Before hearing it, just know that it has to do with ancient Mesoamerican divinities. (Btw, how didn't he notice that his hat merges onto his hair??)
I see that a lot of people recommended more Jojo's themes, so I'll recommend something different wich are two songs from the fighting game The King of Fighters '96: Arashi no Saxophone 2 and Fairy. Both in the arranged versions so you can hear those without the arcade limitations. Trust me I think that you will love it.

Jotaro is known for suddenly turning the tides of battles and he is one of the strongest characters often finishing the fights with a barrage of fists usually turning every bone of his opponent into dust so his theme has constantly changing tones and quiet menacing pauses followed up with big bold triumphant outbursts
And his dad is a sax player so maybe thats why theres so much brass

Didn't know that about his dad. That's dope
Ahh yes, yet another person calling the saxophone a brass instrument
@@nishilg3387 Okay Speedwagon u r alive nice to see it
Jotaro is bland
The most badass JoJo theme here!!!
This main theme is basically just "the main character is about to turn you into a human golfball"
Kira's theme is a must
And I actually think it would be the best if he listened to "Killer" and right after "Another face, Same mind". The first Kira theme gives me goosebumps and the second gives me an urge to run really fast like there was an actual serial killer after me. Scary stuff. Villains themes in general are a must.

Jotaro’s father plays the sax and is on tour. And i like to think that his father is supporting him with the sax solo around 4:10
still my fave jojo theme. the sax just hit different here. ESPECIALLY when the orchestra joins and adds even more layers.
I really love how diverse this show's music is. Even villain themes are extremely different. For example, you can listen to "The pillar men" and "Dio's theme" back to back - completely different experience.
Jotaro's theme is so great that the protagonists main themes from there on all carried a bit of the same themes.

This theme is great and it is used at just the right moments in the show, i love how cool but fierce this track sounds and at times it’s just showing off with the saxophone solo, and the song is so well utilized and fits the character so well that whenever you think of jotaro you are almost always also thinking of this song, and in my opinion that is just because the people that made this have such a high level of awareness not only of quality music but also character thematics which just makes me dizzy trying to think about how you’d write something with all that in mind
This video was great! (As always)
Personal recommendations would be "Pillar Men Theme" and "Avalon" for dubsteb, "Decisive Battle Overslapping Destinies" for orchestra, "Overdrive" for rap, and I'm sure a lot of people are recommending many others so that's it for me.
By the way those songs I recommended were composed by a different person so they might have a different feeling, but they're still amazing!
I hope you do Josukes theme once, it’s the predecessor to the Giorno one
Yea definitely will next week
I guess while we're on Part 3, you should check "Noble Hierophant" ("Kouketsunaru Kyoukou" in Japanese). It's the theme for the JoBro, Noriaki Kakyoin, in Part 3, and I think it's one of the best character themes in the entire series.
I’m pretty sure his theme is called “Virtuous Pope”.
@@felipevasconcelos6736 Both are valid translations of the Japanese, but Noble Hierophant is technically more accurate because it references his Stand.
The triplet thing you mentioned is a dubstep sound lmao. They literally inserted a random dubstep drop.
Dubstep typically used the filter being automated to duck out the sound rhythmically, and often used triplets to contrast the typically heavily syncopated 4/4 rhythm of the drums.
I'm loving your reactions!
An all time favorite (and I'm sure everybody agrees) is Gut's Theme from Berserk. It just hits different.
Unravel from Tokyo Ghoul as well. It got memed to death but it really is a fine piece of music.
Not only the main JoJo's but also Kakyoin and Kira's themes too, glad you're loving them as much as us though man, its always great to see peoples reaction to anything JoJo but to have you break down these things in a way nobody else has is so refreshing :)
I know you've already listened to the Jojo intros, but if you're interested in something really cool, I'd suggest listening to the first intro's full version.
So No Chi No Sadame has some jaw-dropping vocal work toward the end that isn't actually in the intro as it plays in the show. Highly recommended.
Can tell you that you knowing nothing is a big draw for you. Learning things/ experiencing this stuff context-less is a true treasure for us.
You're gonna love Josuke's theme.
yeah i requested this,thank you and enjoy
you should watch the live version of this song, its an amazing show
For me, this will always be Jotaro’s song, with him kicking ass. My favorite JoJo, Jotaro Kujo
Let’s go! I can’t wait for you to check out the other JoJo character themes! Best ones for me are Joseph and Josuke’s themes.
Loving this series man.
Petition for him to react to pillar man theme.
This needs to be stated because when you think about it, it makes perfect sense. Jotaro's theme is a perfect encapsulation of part three, being such a road trip or globe trotting adventure of different musical themes and styles that mirrors the actual theme and setting of the season so amazingly.
I really enjoy your analysis of such great music that stays a bit hidden outside of this community. I'd love to hear your thoughts on Kakyoin's theme (Virtuous Pope)
The show is one of the best shows I’ve ever watched you won’t regret watching it
YES YES YES YES, Y E S!
I had my JoJo era in 2018-2020, I was absolutely obsessed with JoJo. Going to listen Jotaro's theme again after some years of going deeply into the world of music got me like: "This is the most beautiful mess I ever listened to."
Like, bro there's a lot of instruments and different solos in just one theme.
try pillar men theme too, it has a different respect among jojo themes
am hearing this ost for the first time with you .. And I like it a lot! am enjoying it
You should listen to Avalon, if i remember, it's only played one time in the show, in one of the more cheesy, menacing, weird and epic moments of season 2.
Before hearing it, just know that it has to do with ancient Mesoamerican divinities.
(Btw, how didn't he notice that his hat merges onto his hair??)
love your reactions my man
Probably my favorite music in the jojo series !!
You should also listen to "Avalon" which is another music from jojo anime
AND OF COURSE "PILLAR MEN THEME" OMG PLEASE LISTEN HAHAHA
I could literally hear that one part where Joseph runs from Dio and sees Jotaro
1.Jojo Awaken Ost
2. Doom Eternal The only thing they fear is you
please react this two.
Yes please doom music
just the song is incredible so imagine this song during an epic fight, thats why jojo is the goat of animes
and nice vid bro
Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes
I love your buffering face when things change up. Every part of JoJo's is an experience.
You must react to all jojo villain theme songs, they are amazing.
Now you absolutely should react to JoJo's "Pillar Men" Theme
I see that a lot of people recommended more Jojo's themes, so I'll recommend something different wich are two songs from the fighting game The King of Fighters '96: Arashi no Saxophone 2 and Fairy. Both in the arranged versions so you can hear those without the arcade limitations.
Trust me I think that you will love it.
We did it boys! He’s hooked on JoJo!
Try josukes theme next aswell
I forgot how good this theme was
