Random JOJO Trivia |THREAD|

I& #39;ll be updating this tweet with various obscure Jojo related facts I& #39;ve learned through my exposure to the series
Steel Ball Run has its own old official website dedicated to promoting the manga
http://annex.s-manga.net/sbr/ ">https://annex.s-manga.net/sbr/"...
The site hosts promotional SBR videos that use Shueisha& #39;s colorings as part of their animations. Some parts of them have palettes that differ from the digital manga or have Araki& #39;s edited art to work better with their transitions
Gyro having a purple undershirt is one of many inaccuracies of Shueisha& #39;s colorings, since his shirt was white or gray in like 99% of Araki& #39;s art. That& #39;s one of the things you can be sure will be diffrent in anime. Basically same thing with making Gyro green and not blue
This is not Araki lmao ya goofs, seems its the same guy that appeared in ASB promo events before. Who is that exactly I do not know
Frosty already explained Araki CLAMP situation so I& #39;ll just link his thread here: https://twitter.com/FrostyAlmighty/status/1230706611431211008">https://twitter.com/FrostyAlm...
Kenshiro, young Goku, Julius Caesar and Neo drawn by Araki
Ryotsu Kankichi drawn by Araki for Kochikame 15th/25th/30th Anniversary
Shrek is Araki& #39;s Top 8th SUSPENSE FILM
Grateful Dead& #39;s early design + dropped humanoid form
A lot of fans doesn& #39;t know that theres additional SBR chapter that describes Steven Steels life, how he met Lucy Steel and how the race came to be. This chapter is not included in Jojo& #39;s Colored Adventure release of the manga. Some info was retconned later

Baby Face originally had pierced nipples
King Crimson concept art
First refrence sheet done for GW was a one of GE& #39;s frog made on 6th of October 2017. It was made around 2-3 months after final Blu-ray of DiU which came out 7 months after the end of P4. New GW trademark patents were filed by Shueisha in late December 2017
The shot of Giorno and GER was cut in a way that left a big portion of the drawing out of shot, here are genga for the Giorno and GER aswell my edit putting the next to eachother like in original panel
Original "The End" page of Stone Ocean didn& #39;t include the iconic shot of main characters casted onto a raining sky. The drawing was added later on in Tankobon version
SBR Early Design Drawings (Gyro, Johnny, Sandman, Pocoloco, Steven, Lucy)
Parts 2 and 3 also didn& #39;t have their endings in their original release, the planes taking off were only added on later
One of the things Viz censored in their release of Stardust Crusaders was dog gore, their way of fixing the problem was to change it to rat gore becouse that& #39;s way better. They also censored Kakyoin feeding poop to the baby
Jotaro& #39;s iconic purple outfit was supposed to be paired with blue shirt but Shueisha made it white, was it a concious choise or just an overlook on their side, I do not know
I feel like the blue elements in his P5 outfit are related to his P6 look
Jonathan& #39;s blue hair in the anime is in direct contrast to Dio& #39;s blond. It& #39;s a very subtle detail they added as another way of showing their duality/relationship through visuals alone
I& #39;ve noticed that after Shueisha reused the color palette of Ikkyu from the first Rohan OVA for their own coloring of the oneshot, DP did the same and refrenced their palette for AtC guy. I find this extremely adorable and it& #39;s going to be one of my fav fun facts in this threadhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="❤️" title="Red heart" aria-label="Emoji: Red heart">
Here& #39;s additional comparison of some nice shots:
I& #39;ve noticed that one of the stickers released to promote the Rohan OVA& #39;s uses the incorrect palette for the AtC guy, making me wonder if these were his early colors and he happened to get recolored later on into the production.
It doesn& #39;t seem to be the color swap
In first promo artwork we saw of Bruno& #39;s gang, Mista& #39;s gun was black like in Mista& #39;s figurine set, they probably changed it to purple becouse it& #39;s visually more interesting. Purple gun originates from the cover of 50th Volume of the manga
Gyro has fluffy hands
Joshu Higashikata& #39;s concept art
Early on in the manga the inside of Giorno& #39;s collar was white like the school uniforms in the DiU, Shueisha mistook his white part of the collar as part of his body resulting coloring it like skin. DP later based their drawing on that resulting with Giorno with a very thick neck
Mary Joestar/Jonathan& #39;s mom,
Manga/Anime comparison
There are 2 version& #39;s of the SBR& #39;s 8th volume cover. The B&W version has a diffrent SBR spray pattern, HP& #39;s cleavage is drawn as part of her outfit and there& #39;s a diffrent flower pattern on her suit
Phantom Blood PS2 game original character designs based on the knights who won the 77 Rings challenge. Eijkman looks very simmilar to Gyro Zeppeli from early on in the manga
