Well that was an ending, although not the best but it still wraps up everything. RIP Lucy Steel tho T__T

And yep Fumi is the SBR Joseph Joestar, great to see Joseph back.

See you soon in the JoJo Lands...

Lucy actually died at 65 years old, damn... Joseph Joestar and the alternative family + Josefumi's mother hmm, it's still quite mysterious overall I would say, and this part ends with the family eating a cake together... xD Not my favorite part for sure but it was still pretty good, I'm waiting for part 9 now.

It's time to say goodbye to Morioh once again...
While not my favorite part, I really enjoyed its characters and reading it was also fun.
Now it's time for jojo lands...

HERMIT PURPLE! Overall it was pretty wholesome, almost teared when I saw the 2 empty chairs on the last page.

My heart, it ache. That was such a bitter sweet ending. I screamed out loud while reading this, so glad we got to see joseph. Tooru is even older than I thought.

Overall: Best mystery I've seen

Also we all just read the early leak and not the official release?

Araki really brought out Joseph Joestar with Hermit Purple and Steel Clackers just for him to throw them away.

It was an alright ending, the fight was whatever considering it was in one chapter. Weird af seeing Tooru all the way back then though. It seems Norisuke is ok but Jobin seems super dead which sucks, considering he was literally one of my favorite characters in this part.

Apart from the monologue it doesn't really feel like an ending.

Decent way to end this part, onward to part 9.

Btw it took more than 10 years for part 8 which is the longest of all JoJo parts so far.

Goodbye, old friend :(
Lucy died, although that was expected it's still really sad :(
Joseph's stand is AWESO?E! A pumped-up version of Hermit Purple.
We saw Tooru for the last time.
Josefumi's mom may care about him.
The ending was really emotional.
I hope we can see these characters return on JOJOLANDS!

Joseph Joestar with a Humanoid Hermit Purple made my day lmao. Hope he didn't cheat on Suzie Q again, but i wouldn't mind if he did.


Anyways, It's an Okay ending that made me more interested in the upcoming part 9.

This was actually fine for how weak this final arc was overall. It brought great fanservice and closed of our MCs character arc well but jobin was not well handled at all & that I'll never forgive araki for.

Well...it was a good end (finally we have a SBR Universe Joseph). Araki really put a lot of effort into this work, I hope he takes some rest before starting the new part...

For now, it's wait for Part 9.

A relatively weak arc. There were quite the amount of threads that went nowhere and it felt in general directionless.

It was a good arc in general though. I really liked the characters, the final battle was the third best one, and the closure for Josuke's character arc was better than I expected.

My current ranking for the eight parts is: 4>5≈7>2>8≈6>>3>>>1≈nothing

I'm glad Jojolion is over. To be honest this is easily the worst Jojo part. I'm scared and intrigued with the future of this franchise.

So that boy was indeed Joseph and he married Suzy Q even in this timeline. He's destined to live a fulfilled life, ain't he. Also Lucy Steel died at the age of 65, I'm glad she lived a long life and died peacefully.

Back to the main story and Josuke meets Josefumi's mother. She was actually looking for Josefumi after all, good to know. Also Josefumi was named Josefumi by his grandpa, Josefumi as in Joseph's japanese name Josefu + Fumi as mentioned in this chapter.

Finally Josuke meets up with the Higashikata family and it ends with a emotional get together of all of them. It would have been great if we got to see Josuke getting together with Yasuho but at this point it's pretty much confirmed they'll get together at some point.

And with this another JoJo part comes to an end and once again this was another amazing part. I really loved most of it thou there were a few inconsistencies here and there but they weren't that much of a hindrance. My only complain would be the fact that Johnny brought out the corpse from that facility which was supposed to be impregnable for atleast 80 years.

Part 9 title JoJolands was already announced so looking forward to that. Hopefully Araki will come out with another amazing part.

Now, I really loved these last two chapters but as far as JoJo endings go, this is easily the worst one. This is for me the worst part as well. Araki actually forgot some things but they could be remedied in Part 9 perhaps. It was a fun ride and I do agree that some strange choices were made towards the end.
Very excited for Part 9.

Damn, that was a long ride, started this back in highschool and now reading the last chapter at 24... Tbh my interest in the part kind of waned a few years ago and I'm not too satisfied with how it turned out. Definitely the part I love the least but I still got a lot of enjoyment out of it. I really need to get around to rereading JoJolion from the beginning now that it's all over, to re-experience the stuff I loved this part for and to see more clearly how I feel about it as a whole. Glad Araki is still going at it with JoJoLands, it would be a shame if JoJo ended here. Hoping the best for Part 9 and a new era of JoJo.

Oh man, it was hard reading that Lucy died, especially being quite young to die :(

So the theory was right, he was Joseph after all! It was really cool to see him!
Would part 9 be about him? Probably not

And Norisuke survived! I can't believe it! I'm happy about that.

It ended quite abruptly to be honest, but I liked it. I can't believe JoJolion it's over.

I'll see you all in part 9!

I am now depressed because of this ending. I hope we get to see what happens to Holly after this. I really hope they go searching for more Rokakaka like they hinted at. That's something I would like to be included in part 9.

Yea, I get that, but it was just so abrupt that I thought there had to be more. He was such a good character, but he went out like some minor part 3 antagonist.

I honestly love the conclusion, it may not have answered all of my questions I had for this part but it was satisfying to see the clackers & hamon being used by Joseph. Seeing Josuke accepting himself for who he is now instead of what was his past was great too. I am hopeful that Part 9 elaborates more on Part 8. :D

Honestly don't get the last arc fans... The last arc was needlessly long with rock animals stalling, characters briefly coming back to get clapped, bullshit power-up ( nothing new, still unsatisfying ), and left me with a really rushed feeling, especially with chapter 108.

This part may be one of the weaker parts imo (mainly because of WoU) but the ending wasn't that bad. Perhaps it was kinda rushed but still properly closes Josuke's story.

Since holly hasn't awaken from her coma yet, will we see Josuke going out of Japan to find a new rokakaka? I think the next part might be stardust crusaders v2.

Felt kinda mediocre towards the end, and the characters didn't really intrigue me as much as the other parts did. Some great and unique concepts here and there but there was also some questionable directions and plot holes. 7/10 part tbh. Weird plot about fruit that just didn't stuck with me.

Not my favorite part by a long shot and pretty underwhelming end but it was still enjoyable. If anything, I'll be thinking about how exciting it will be to see the birth of a new part rather than pondering the ending of Jojolion.

My 2nd favourite part despite the ending being one of the weakest in the series. Still I'm glad we go to see what happened to Lucy Steel, this universe's Joseph Joestar and how the Joestar family tree went from there. I think that was a great conclusion of Jousuke's story. Looking forward to what JOJOLANDS has to offer.

Well after the 2nd seinen jojo part ended, this is by far my 5th favorite part after SBR,DIU,BT,GW, there are still some major plot point that still hasn't yet revealed, what is the mechanic and origin of walleyes, what is tooru motivation that makes him a villain, without the "bee stuff" the cake ending is touching, we still haven't yet see Rai's condition but it's stated that he's deceased


I really hoped the radio gaga incident is shortened, this part is beyond bullshit,it could have been short and give all the goddamn information and considering 2 chapters left it ends, especially since this is an alternate universe,we thought holly kira is not joseph daughter,but ended up yes,which is very predictable itself as an alternate universe of Jojo


And by far my favorite character here is only Joubin and Gappy, Both are great,Joubin is a natural realistic villain like Kira, make his family wealthy and protect his son and live a happy life with his family and Gappy is probably the kindest yet cutest Jojo after Jonathan

Soft and wet go beyond development is way too rushed and an asspulls, because the bubbles ain't real bubbles but a thread that can make spins and ignore every ability, especially the origin about Rai knowing the spin isn't yet explained


And a lot of plot points

How did Rai know spin eventually only Zeppelis and Joestars know it??

How did Tooru get his stand?

Yasuho's backstory

Holly emotion, she's basically just laying on the hospital bed, after she gets cured, she didn't go to Kei or maybe even something else related,but she had a baby,i likely doubt the baby is a new original fresh Jojo, since Kira jojolion is Jotaro 2.0

Who is the rail guard? why tf a friggin metal gets a stand like ability while metal is clearly a dead material



Oh Dear after loads of edit and knowing more information,i felt so bad for holly kira,he missing his own son,turned out to be stranger that is tried to break her curse,and kei is confirmed deceased,#straystonkhollysan!

Maybe just coping but since we got an information about a possibillity of Rokakaka being in some lands to the south we'll see Josuke in part 9 in the same way we saw Joseph in SC? As Yasuho said, this was a story about breaking a curse. Maybe we'll get a story about Josuke finally saving Holly? There are some unresolved plot points and over a course of 10 years Araki could have changed his mind many times and simply abandon some of them. I guess I need to wait to see if I'm gonna classify this part as a part with the greatest number of plot holes or a part that concludes while making a build up to part 9.

I have said before that this has the potential to be the worst or best part....it's the worst. Everything felt so dragged and anti-climactic I really don't understand why this couldn't just have been twice as short, it really didn't add much in the end other than confusion.
