This week, the Jojo Gang spread misinformation about Okuyasu’s stand “The Hand”. Brian had told Michael at one point or another that it was based on Nine Inch Nail’s “The Hand that Feeds”, which is not true. Undisclosed apologies go out to a fan of the podcast named Paul who trusted us. We also enlighten the audience to the fact that Araki cries to the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack.

Joseph Joestar is potentially JJBA’s first meninist character, and he’s back once again to fight Vampires in a new era. Joseph fights in a way that evokes a new art style for the audience, the pacing of battle and its color palettes are beloved by fans and new watchers alike.

The classic trope of “By the way, the Saiyans are coming and they’re stronger than me” is evoked in Battle Tendency. The threat of the Pillar Men is warranted immediately through the death of a Vampire, previously one of the strongest threats in the series. The setting is amidst World War II, and the existence of Nazis as a threat adds a new spin to how the world-threatening Pillar Men will be handled!

The gang goes on to discuss the morality of Nazi characters and their poor use in Battle Tendency. There is also the topic of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure themed alcoholic beverages to try! Jotaro’s favorite is the Applebee’s Gummy Shark Martini.
