Can you help me? I’m trying to find where to learn more about the Wakfu universe and watch the specials(?) where it shows Joris’ backstory and other stuff but I can’t find anything :( do I have to play the game to understand it all or something?
Firstly, playing the games is completely optional, although they are very fun, and there's very little Joris and Joris related content in them.
Now onto the Joris Lore Media. This is not a watch order, just a list:
The Quest for the Six Eliatrope Dofus: I don't know if you've watched the entire show or not yet, but I will say that the best order of watching Wakfu, without any other content or OVAs (like the Ogrest ova, or the Nox ova, both of which are excellent), is season 1 -> season 2 -> very importantly, "The Quest for the Six Eliatrope Dofus" OVAs, which lead directly into -> season 3. These OVAs are on Netflix, just like the show, but for some reason not included in the show's page, despite their story importance.
(I am mentioning this because these OVAs have a lot of Joris appearances, especially the second one. Joris is so good in there.)
Dofus: the Treasures of Kerubim: (Also known as "Dofus: Kerub's Bazaar" and "Dofus: Aux trésors de Kerubim") this is quite literally the most important Joris related media to me, and it's kinda what made me love Joris so much? It's a 52 episode long animated series. The show has a very strong continuity, as well as themes and theory-crafting potential - it just gets better the more you watch it. I cannot recommend it enough. You can watch it legally on Ankama's Launcher, but a paid subscription is needed.
Dofus Book 1: Julith: (Also known as "Dofus Livre 1: Julith") It's a movie, direct continuation of Treasures of Kerubim. You shouldn't watch it without having seen Treasures of Kerubim first, but it's pretty much the single most important Joris media in general.
This next section is just comics that may interest you:
Les Dessous de Dofus: It's not very Joris centric, but it fleshes out some of the other characters really well. I think it's a good thing, since Joris gets the most fleshing out and characterization in the movie proper. And liking Joris, at least to me, is also liking all other Crepin-Jurgen family members. I don't think an official english translation is available, but there is a fan-translation online.
Wakfu Manga: Joris appears a lot in this, being one of the main characters of a Wakfu story for once, and he's... so funny. It's also nice to see him interact with Wakfu main cast a lot. I don't think it was entirely translated into english, but there is a full English fan-translation online.
Remington Comics: Joris appears in volumes 10-12, and yet again, he is so funny. There's no serious Joris lore going on. I just think he's hilarious here. These comics' last volumes were never even fan-translated into English, to my knowledge, so one would have to read them with Google Translate in hand. Because of this, while one can find them online, I'll only say that you can buy them from Ankama's store.
