Jojo Monthly Redraw [2/9] - Battle Tendency

This is the 2nd of a total of nine drawings I'll do throughout the year. I'll be redrawing one scene from each part of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, from Phantom Blood to The Jojolands.

Battle Tendency was more enjoyable for me than Phantom Blood. I consider Joseph a charismatic and very smart character. Even though he later proves to be a bit of a shitty person (coughcheatingassholecough), I'll always appreciate a character that makes me laugh with his shenanigans, like Joseph with the execution of his famous Joestar Secret Technique™ hahaha.

Next month is Stardust Crusaders!

More of my art!

Classic question but which one of you would win in a fight? 👀 Either with or without stands

Polnareff: "Ah! Why don't we spar!" He rises from his seat, shouting with great enthusiasm. "There's no better way to find out than with a bit of sparring!" Avdol: "Hold on a minute Polnareff." Avdol raises his hand. "It'd be wise for Mr. Joestar, Kakyoin, and Jojo to not engage in any fights right now, they're after all still healing from their injuries." Polnareff: He sits right back down again, dejected. "Right… s-sorry. I forgot."

... Joseph: "Hm, I wouldn't mind some sparring, I did do that quite a lot back when I was younger actually…but Avdol's right." Joseph's toothy grin suddenly grew more mischievous. "Good thing for you, otherwise I'd have gone old school on you lot. No stands? They didn't put hamon into the equation!" Jotaro: "Isn't ''hamon'' supposed to keep you youthful…" He stared blankly at Joseph. And his aging features. Joseph: "Wh-Hey!" Joseph uttered, offended. "If you use it regularly! It was too much work to keep up… and even so, I'm perfectly fine like this! Have you seen other men my age?" He crossed his arms tightly, turning his head away. Kakyoin: "Not that I know much about that ancient martial art of Mr. Joestar's, but if it were to come down to us having no stands… he does seem to have the upper hand. However-" Kakyoin's smug smile radiated confidence, speaking enthusiastically. "With stands, that's a whole other discussion." His eyes lit up. "No doubt would our confidence in our stands make for thrilling sparring, with the right strategy, I'd bet even Jojo could figure out a way to beat, say, my Hierophant Green's long range. Oh, but Avdol's also got a great arsenal of long-ranged abilities with his powerful flames… then I guess there's Polnareff's silver chariot, too, it does have its incredible agility." Kakyoin rambled. Jotaro: "Figure out a way?… Didn't I already beat you once?" He questioned. Kakyoin: "I wasn't In control that time." He tapped his forehead. "You may have deflected my Emerald splash, but that's not to say I haven't got other tricks up my sleeve I didn't get to use." Polnareff: "I think even I could deflect your Hierophant Green's ''Emerald Splash''! Were we to spar, Kakyoin." He chimed in with a cocky smirk. Kakyoin: "Even if it did, can one blade cut through a consistent barrage of them?" Kakyoin quipped back, suddenly looking serious. Polnareff: "Surely… You wouldn't even be able to tell how quickly and precisely my Chariot can cleave objects mid-air, were you to try it." He spoke with sudden gravity, returning the piercing stare.

"Or did you forget that quickly?"

Kakyoin: "…No, I haven't forgotten. But it's not just about if your stand could slice through my Emeralds or its speed, the moment chariot would move I'd have put up a web, and by then I could read your every move." Kakyoin's stare darkened.

"Would you have the strength and energy to keep up? I'd tire you out by the end of it." Kakyoin scoffed.

Polnareff: "Oh?" His brow furrowed considerably. "Well, Kakyoin. Unlike you, I don't reveal my secret technique so blatantly. Now when I know about your web, I already know what card I have to play to beat you!" His lips part into a confident sneer.

. . .

Avdol: "If I may, again-" Avdol stepped in between the two with a sigh. "While both your stands are undoubtedly powerful, I feel like this is very much a situation of circumstances. And, we will not be sparring anytime soon, so stop provoking the teenager." He shot Polnareff a look. Joseph: From further away. "Yeah! And uh, you didn't even mention my Hermit Purple, back with the… yeah!…" Joseph's gaze fell. Polnareff: He staggers back, seeming surprised. "Provoking him? Come on, we were just having fun! We were both in on it; I wasn't trying to provoke Kakyoin!…" He showed a lighthearted smile to ensure he meant what he was saying . . . "Did it come off that way?" He blinked, looking clueless. . . .

Avdol: "...Back to the point my friends, since we're recording all this into our answer, let's put it like this: all our stands have their strengths and weaknesses, and it'd take some deliberation to figure out. We cannot say for certain immediately, but perhaps the Speedwagon Foundation could run a poll among their employees about which of our stands they personally think would win." Avdol suggested. Jotaro: "You can take me out of the roster." He interjects. "Plus, gramps looks like he wants to be included. So to even the odds-…" He pauses. "I don't give a crap about this ''game'' anyway, is what I meant." (Totally). Kakyoin: "…Fine. If that is what we're doing." Joseph: "Oh! then how about we settle a vote between Kakyoin and Polnareff first? since that became a bit of a topic here." Polnareff: "Bring it on!" He cheers.

[Some afterwords after this rather long text post! For one, I'm really honored you read this far. Thank you! I hope people will enjoy script-heavy answers sometimes when I and mod Blueberry don't have the energy or time to illustrate a full-on comic when we really want to do a long response to an ask, like the one above.

Askin pulled the secret Joestar technique

[a-stars-art-blog]

BAHAHAHA THE MERMAID BEACH EPISODE

they're all just flopping around on the beach and the enemy stand user tries their best to prevent them from reaching the water and leaving them stuck on land where they're helpless. joseph tries the Secret Joestar Technique but can only flop around like a magikarp. of course jotaro eventually manages to crawl to the sea and he's an absolute swimming ace once he's in water and gets the upper hand like a decent ocean man

imagine if the mermaid effect affects their stands too and now Star Platinum is a killer whale. ORCAORCAORCAORCAORCA

and after they beat the guy they're still stuck as mers for a while so they decide to might as well just enjoy and make the most of their new tails for however long they last

Bonus: (I couldn't think of alts for Avdol's and Pol's stands sorry sdalfjasd;lkfj)

i'm going to start a new bloodborne playthrough soon, last time i played it i just kind of stopped for no particular reason but i'm pretty sure i was playing it wrong and that had a cumulative effect on my experience, do you have any tips for how to not suck at bloodborne? also is an arcane build a terrible idea because i'm really leaning towards that right now

1. dodge into attacks instead of trying to back up out of them

2. dodging forward and to the left can get you out of a lot of situations

3. dont use the cane

4. too many dudes? use the joestar secret technique: run away!

5. use rally to your advantage; if you get hit, slap them back before they knock your hp down.

6. learn to parry. you need it. YOU NEED IT

7. use a guide if you need to. no shame. especially for npc quests

Bio: Taeko is the only granddaughter of Tanjiro Kamado, being born fifty two years after the final battle and the disbandment of the demon slayer corp. Taeko, during her first nine years of life, spent a lot of time with her grandfather, hearing stories of his youth. Which led her to developing a deep admiration of both her grandfather and the demon slayers. Not too long after his death, her father found out her imaginary friend wasn't actually an imaginary friend. He called for a family acquaintance, Yushiro, to help but the demon didn't know what a stand was so he wasn't able to offer more than speculation. After that, Yushiro became a part of her day to day life being present in key events like when she found out Titania had a katana and joined the kendo club. She also asked for stories of her grandfather and his friends from him, deepening her knowledge on the events of demon slayer. One year prior to the events of Stardust crusaders, she lost her father to the same illness that killed Tanjuro Kamado, resulting in her and her mother moving to another house and her exchanging schools. She ended up in the same classroom as Jotaro Kujo, not realizing how her meeting with the delinquent would change her life.

Yoshida used secret joestar technique

[starry-blue-echoes]

So I was thinking just kinda. Generally about Joseph in Star Swap, specifically the first couple days he's in Italy and

what if Joseph managed to get his hands on a pair of clackers.

Maybe he managed to find someone selling them, maybe he made them himself, but I just think it would be funny if Joseph had access to a non-traditional weapon to scare the shit out of people with, specifically the Bucci Gang

because like. Imagine

Joseph would mostly use the clackers as a stim by the time he got them. He was mostly safe and didn't have to deal with any trouble, so he mostly did little tricks to keep both his hands and the tourists' eyes busy. And when he first joins the group, they all assume it's a stim thing. Sure he can do some neat tricks, but the things lack a certain amount of..... intimidation for them to think Joseph was being serious when he said he used them as weapons

And when Joseph goes off to Capri..... they were a bit worried, not gonna lie, even more so when they learn that according to Abbaccio and Bucciarati, the kid doesn't have a Stand and is essentially going to be going in blind and "helpless"

then they arrive in Capri, Joseph waiting for them by the docks without a hair out of place and a big grin. He says he dealt with the attacker without much trouble, but admits he's not too sure what to do about the body

And out of everything....... they were NOT expecting to see massive gouges in the body the exact same shape and size as Joseph's clackers

But then also rewinding a bit and clackers aside, I was also having thoughts about how Joseph ended up joining the team

So like I said, his first week in Future Italy mostly goes by without issue and is just him. Adjusting to Giorno's body and life, plus starting to make plans to get to Venice and Air Supplena to try and get help

Then Luca happens and Joseph is....... not thrilled, honestly. He'd been doing his best to stay off anyone's radar, and getting the fucking mafia's attention was definitely not "off the radar." Luca would probably still die, and I can honestly see it as a 50/50 split between what gets used to do the deed, being either Hamon Infused Clackers or a Hamon Infused Shovel. And the whole reason it even escalated to that point is simply because he can't risk Luca putting Giorno in danger in the future or coming back with friends

so he bolts…….. and not even an hour later Bucciarati is on his tail

and that fight...... ho boy does it get interesting :)

because at this point Joseph is completely unable to see Stands. He's dealt with enough Hamon And Pillarmen shit to not be completely thrown off, but it's still really fucking confusing what’s going on this isn’t Hamon-

So using a very conveniently open zipper, he employs the Joestar Secret Technique to get some distance and come up with a plan. I’m not too sure about the specifics, but he does end up managing to get the drop on Bucciarati and knocks him out with some Hamon to the brain and drags the man’s body somewhere out of sight

and then cue The Freak Out

because oh fuck oh shit oh no no no this is so much worse than before they know who he is they’re probably going to track him down he’s just put Giorno and himself in so much more danger shit fuck god damnit he probably just made it worse by attacking this guy he really should’ve been more careful with Luca fuck shit fuck fuck fuck-

And Bucciarati……. well, for one he wasn’t expecting to wake up at all after Joseph got the drop on him, but second he wasn’t expecting to wake up to see the kid who just beat him panic pacing and talking to himself about what the hell he should do. Naturally Joseph gets on guard when he realizes Bucciarati's awake...... but now the small bit of guilt that had been gnawing on him has grown to an almost blinding degree

He can't help but see a child when he looks at "Giorno." He's still a tad roughed up from his fight with Luca (which wasn't nearly as easy as it was in canon), and he's just so..... small. He doesn't look comfortable in his skin, he twitches whenever Bucciarati says his name, and more than anything he looks like he's desperately trying to keep things together

Bucciarati asks him a question or two. About his family (he's alone), what he'd like to be called (Jojo, not Giorno), how long he'd been able to use his lightning (his whole life). He speaks easily and with a smile (it's a front, he's terrified) and speaks surprisingly easily for someone who just took down two mafia members within hours of each other (another front, he's incredibly skilled at steering the conversation and too used to combat to be a civilian).

and well...... Joseph wasn't lying and Bucciarati isn't necessarily wrong about his observations, he just manages to draw incorrect conclusions and....... he'd always been a bleeding heart

Bucciarati offers to look the other way about this little incident

Joseph thinks it's bullshit because he may be stupid but he's not an idiot. Granny didn't raise no fool and he's spent way too much time around slimy rich jerks to know that someone's word without anything backing it is worth exactly jack shit

So Bucciarati makes a second offer. The kid has skills, he can't deny that much, and given that Bucciarati thinks he has a Stand, he figured it's only a matter of time before he runs into more Users again, and next time he doubts they’ll be as forgiving. So in return for keeping what he did to Luca and himself secret, what if Bucciarati offers Joseph a place on his team

And Joseph....... Joseph thinks long and hard about this. Because on one hand, this is dangerous. It's quite literally stepping into the lion's den and he's not sure if he's going to be able to get out. Or rather, he’s not sure if Giorno is going to be able to get out

But at the same time....... he really doesn't think he has a choice here. He doesn't trust Bucciarati, nor does he believe that the man genuinely would keep this secret and not use it as leverage later down the line. It's either this or what little can be salvaged of Giorno's life goes down the drain and he has to somehow escape the mafia that according to the whispers he's heard have complete control over the Italian underground

but he doesn't let it show. One of the first rules about being backed into a corner is don't let your opponent know you've been backed into a corner. That just gives them even more power over you

So he asks Bucciarati a question. That if he were to join the team, how easy would it be to get to Venice? There's someone he needs to meet up with, and that if Bucciarati can guarantee he gets there before the week is up, then he's got himself a deal

it was risky, asking Bucciarati of this. The man had FAR more leverage than in this conversation than he did, and had it been anyone else the risk might not have paid off.

But Joseph refuses to look weak and Bucciarati agrees
