r/JOJOLANDS

It's unlikely but with the president being mentioned is it at all possible to get some mention of the SBR or Valentine in part 9? Its probably more talked about in schools in America than it is in Japan. It wasn't all that influential in Japan considering not meny people seem to know about it to what we saw.

For anyone who has kept up with The Jojolands since the start, you'll notice that the part has consistently taken October off for breaks, but for some reason didn't this time. I don't think I've seen anyone mention this as weird or notable on the subreddit yet, so I thought I'd write out my explanation for why this was most likely done.

With Part 9 beginning in February, the chapter numbers were just one off from being aligned with the months during their releases, but with October being a break month, it means that Chapter 9 released on November. With the repeated importance put onto the number 9 and the month of November, this just makes perfect sense. Everything lines up.

But for 2026, another bit number is coming up this November, and would have been totally missed had October been another break month like the past couple years. October's release is going to be Chapter 998 of the series whole, meaning Chapter 999 is releasing in November.

I sort of expect this to mean December will be a break month in their steads, but if Chapter 1000 is this December I'd be totally up to call 2026 one of the best years for the series in a long time, in terms of milestones and events.

Seriously I swear the second i saw Paco. Even before he spoke I immediately thought of this voice in the Japanese anime.

Lulu, my beautiful Lulu, you must understand that I did not want to kill your mother. She left me no choice. She was planning to take my business all for herself and didn't care about you being the heir apparent. I killed your mother to ensure the Howler family would stay in control of our own life.

Im rereading Jojolands to catch up and Im just confused on how Glory Days can pose any real threat. As far as I know, the stand's only ability is to control the speed of bullets that Bobby Jean fires while maintaining their power. Its hard to tell how slow exactly the bullets are going, but theyre slow enough for the gang to react to them and just stand there looking at them.

But the thing that confuses me the most and what makes me questions how this atand could be dangerous, is why doesnt anybody just move out of the way? In the scene where everybody was first shot with a barrage of bullets, why when the bullets touch them and start to dig into them do they not just move out of the way? Again, can't tell how slow they're actually going cause it's just a manga, but theyre at least slow enough for you to see them and react. Why wouldnt you just move out of the way once you feel them touch you, instead of just letting them burrow in your flesh?

Before we get a reveal, how many kids Alt Universe Dio planted before getting shot by Lucy in SBR?

As we all know for this entire act the group has been under attack and we also know the government has been monitoring them for some time and had a time to make a good plan. So they obviously have the deck stacked against them and while we’ve seen that in Jojo plenty of times before (both literally and metaphorically) I can’t help but feel that this time is different, especially considering how well they came out of the first act.

We’ve finally seen their first offensive move of this act with Charming Man infiltrating the strike team very quickly but that doesn’t guarantee a victory. The team is trapped in the middle of the Ocean, has been located by John Rod, and have their identities known. Can they ever even go back to their normal lives at this point?

My guess is that they will need to come to the negotiating table or they will pay a heavy toll to get their hands on the lava rock.

There’s a lot of times in Jojo where it feels like it’s over but this really is one of them, it feels almost akin to Made In Heaven. Also with the length of the two previous parts we can probably assume we’re not even halfway done and unless were getting a big time skip or Jodio becoming President of the United States, I feel we’re in store for a big loss/regression.

As a side note, will the rock be able to interact with stands in any way?
