    A simpler explanation yeah. Plus Johngalli actually worked with Pucci in-depth and knew about his Stand so if his memory were erased he might notice gaps and/or break allegiance with him realizing he'd been messed with. Either way it'd be cleaner for him to die especially since Pucci figured he'd no longer have use for him with Jotaro dealt with.

    I think Johngalli A also knew more than any of his lackeys to whom he gave Stands and orders, and he would be a dangerous opponent, even for the likes of Pucci and Whitesnake.

    Wow that Foo Fighters battle was a good one. Nice fake out too, seeing the person in the OP get it that hard at the start. And from that right to high stakes catch. Jojo sure is something.


    Edit: A fucking spacesuit? That's the kind of bullshit you choose to introduce him doing?

    FWIW, I suppose I'm biased with hindsight since (without giving too much away) the original scenario you described does actually happen in the story and it nearly gets him killed, so I view his handling of Johngalli as the "correct" one.

    It truly is a shame that Weather Report has so few fights in Part 6, too stronk I guess. At least Araki didn't pull a Fuego this time and have him just up and leave.

    I was about to mention that one as well, and yeah, with that in mind, Pucci definitely dealt with Johngalli A. the "correct" way.

    So I've been watching the latest Alex Rider series lately and a chain of trivia lead me to the fact that Araki apparently drew cover-art for the novels in Japan.


    (For book 1 'Stormbreaker')

    Fun seeing a more "grounded" series interpreted through Araki's fabulous art-style.

    Really? That art is something. Makes Alex look a decade older than he actually is. Honestly, I haven't thought of that book series since I finished like 10 years ago? Man, time flies.

    Yeah, the fact that's supposed to be 14 makes that a little eyebrow-raising but that's pretty much how Araki draws characters. Actually more in line with the Amazon series where Alex is aged up to be at least 16, apart from the fabulous fashion sense of course...

    It seems David is having production troubles to meet Netflix demand for batch. That, and they’re also busy with like 52 episodes of Urusei Yatsura non stop. From what I’ve heard this new adaptation of UY is affecting SO and taking away better staff from it

    Fuck Netflix and it's fuck you money, that is if they're even fully responsible for DP's troubles with producing Stone Ocean.

    While I believe that the Netflix deal had at least some effect on this it kinda seems to me like DP's output of several shows + JoJo has finally caught up to them, as I get the impression that they steadily increased it over the years.

    I might be wrong, of course, and someone who knows more about them please do correct me if that's the case.

    No.You aren't wrong It's that. Or more specifically, Urusei Yatsura. Kvin (Yuyucow in Twitter) , head of Sakugabooru, already made an sneaky tweet (because he has connections to animators, he has insider info) before UY's announcement that Stone Ocean got fucked over by a completely uncessary remake taking away a lot of good staff who previously worked in JoJo. David accepting another long runner (UY) bit them in the ass

    Rumiko has larger audience than Araki you know, even though Jojo is hyped more.

    The remake is called unecessary because the old show and movies are already seen as pretty good and people interested in UY could go watch that
