What's a Jojo reference that caught you by surprise when you were watching an anime/reading a manga?
| I've been watching "Gintama" and that show likes to reference a lot of things so of course Jojo would be included in the mix. As a Jojo fan, it's what I love to see - pretty sure Josuke and Jotaro appeared in images and there was that entire hot spring arc where they were referring to ghosts as stands and that came with a lot of Jojo references, but I think the show poking fun at how Araki never ages was the funniest and most unexpected thing. Then again, this is "Gintama" so I'm not super surprised if a Jojo reference appears since it's "Gintama." However, I read "Hikikomori Niizuma" (an autobiographical manga about a woman who turned into a hikikomori after she got married), not expecting a single Jojo reference at all and it didn't happen in the main story itself, but I checked out the extras at the end and got this: And then a GL manhua, "She Is Still Cute Today," that I recently finished had this entire scene: Not sure how many responses this thread will get, but I was curious if anyone has come across a Jojo reference in an unexpected place and what anime/manga it happened in. The spread of Jojo's reach is no joke. |

I was taken by surprise by the DIO walking pose in the Kizumonogatari manga. |
| In Azumanga Daioh when Chiyo showed up in Kaorin's dream wearing an outfit very similar to Jotaro's to look intimidating. |
| There's one in Oregairu where he says- "Just as stand users attract each other, so do loners." There's also one in No Game No Life- "Daga kotowaru (with the Kishibe Rohan face and an appropriate build up)." Best part is, they did this before the 2012 anime got to that up. |
 |
| The only ones which took me really off guard were in No Game No Life with Wryyy and King Crimson and obviously the best version of "Daga Kotowaru" |
| Shokugeki, since it was in the middle of a battle scene. Got me off guard. |
 |
| I don't think I've ever been caught off guard by Jojo references. They're like the wilhelm scream of weeb media so seeing them even at context which would seem unexpected is not surprising. |

Dragon Ball's Hitto, the dude who dresses like Jotaro and can stop time. |
| I didn't not expect a "nigerun dayo! Smokey!!" in 4-nin wa Sorezore Uso o Tsuku. Caught me off guard. |
"Nobody could laugh at someone who's trying their hardest" -Machio- |
| In Speed Grapher one of the evil characters bodyguard was dressed like a Jojo character |
 |
| Luke saying "DAGA KOTOWARU" in Yugioh Sevens. |
 |
| There were a lot of JoJo references in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure that took me by surprise. |
  ★・・・・・・★ If you wish to treat this incident as our nation’s scheme, that is fine by me. History is written by the victors. All of your false accusations will soon be erased. ★・・・・・・★ |
| Bocchi the Rock's Killer Queen, that was epic. |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Perhaps, this is hell. |
