Weird adventure of Jojo is a classic surrealist of Shonen Anime who combines Battle Anime with Globe-Trotting Adventure and Power Leveling Fantasy. He follows the generations of the Jestar family and their talented offspring. Weird adventure of Jojo started as a series of manga at the end of the 80s by mangaka Hirohiko Araki, and it continues to date.
Hirohiko Araki mixed various influences in his wacky masterpiece, from rock music to haute couture to artists like Paul Gauguin and novelists like Bram Stoker. Haute couture, the dark fantasy characters and surreal imagery mixed to develop a style that seemed to influence another important anime sub-genre that would gain popularity at the end of the 80s: Magical Girl Anime. We could argue that the heroes and the bad guys of Weird adventure of Jojo Mount a sort of archetype of magic boy and arguing in many tropes of anime of magic girls.
Magic girls are known for their celestial powers, their emblematic battle calls, their beautiful transformations and their sparkling power-ups
Magical Girl Anime obviously focuses on heroes of girls and certain narration conventions concerning them. These female characters are best known for their emblematic transformation sequences, which are often repeated at least once by episode. The aesthetics are very important in Magical Girl Anime. The form is just as important as the function. Series like Sailor Draw a lot of inspiration in art movements, architectural design eras and haute couture creators like Thierry Mugler, Christian Dior and Yves Saint Laurent.
Magical Girl Anime also has characteristics that ride Battle Shonen animates in more general terms. These warriors exercise signature weapons, powers and level forms throughout their saga, and sometimes a team of friends with thematic powers. Their powers can have celestial themes, elementary themes, folk themes or a mixture of the three.
In series like SailorOnly girls can be Sailor Guardians, who are the main magic girls in the series. But although the romantic interest of Sailor Moon, the tuxedo mask, is not technically a sailor’s goalkeeper, he always has a kind of magic boy. The mangaka of the series said that she had written it as an inversion of the romantic interest of the anime Shonen often animates thrown or underestimated. The tuxedo mask is sometimes a bit of a young lady in constraint, and he is also a little magical because he meets the archetype control list. He has powers that upgrade as the series continues. It has a magic transformation sequence, an excellent taste in haute couture and nasty leaf characters. As emblematic as the tuxedo mask, it can be overwhelmed by magic guys of Weird adventure of Jojo which also meet the archetypal criteria of the magic boy.
Some members of the Jestar family can access incredible powers
Similar to Hikaru, Umi and Fuu who are responsible for becoming legendary knights in the anime of magic girl, Magic Knight RayearthJonathan’s arc presents the power system and the fate of the Joestar family in Weird adventure of Jojo. The leveling of power is not exclusive to Magical Girl anime, but it is a key characteristic of the genre. He is linked to the destiny of the protagonist, just as he is linked to that of Jonathan Jestar.
Just as Luna finds Usagi Tsukino in episode 1 of Sailor And informs her that she must train as a sailor’s goalkeeper and find the lost princess of the moon, Jonathan is also found by a mentor and formed in the first Jojo Arc, ghost blood. There are some different magic systems in Weird adventure of Jojo. The first is Hamon, which is the simplest and involves a breathing technique where the characters charge objects with their energy. As with magic systems that most often appear in Magical Girl Anime, Hamon Powers tends to be thematic to the individual user. The power supply system passes from Hamon to Hamon to part 3 of the Weird adventure of Jojo Family saga.
The Jestars and their Vampires Vogue Vogue in High Couture Designs
Magic girls model and show their sparkling combat uniforms inspired by haute couture lookbooks with a balletic grace. SailorMangaka, Naoko Takeuchi shaped the most recognizable outfits of his characters directly on the 1990s advertising tracks and advertising campaigns. The White Dress and White-Whiteeed Empire-Waist of Princess Serenity is inspired by the Dior Palladium dress from 1992. Sailor The bad guys wear dresses inspired by the pieces of Svelte Thierry Mugler and the advertising campaigns of Yves Saint Laurent.
Although Naoko Takeuchi is not solely responsible for the importance of fashion in the magical genre of girls, she helped solidify her presence in the genre. And before Naoko, Takeuchi, turned to the tracks for inspiration for his manga series, Hirohiko Araki was on a similar wavelength, fashion illustrations. Characters like Dio take poses directly sketches from Antonio Lopez.
Voguing is a kind of very stylized modern dance born from the 1980s, and it is not very common in anime outside the magical genre of girls. Characters like Sailor Moon pose stylistically and Sassily to illustrate their point of view when they present themselves in combat. This dramatic, emblematic and dancer installation also appears in Weird adventure of Jojoboth in static and dynamic movements. It is a phenomenon in the series that fans delete it with love “Jojo posing”.
Jojo’s bizarre adventure has some emblematic animal acolytes
A mascot in an animated magical girl tends to be a cute and fanciful creature which brings together a team of heroes or warriors by advice or by pure morale, their sweet nature brings. This mascot can have magic powers or act as a mentor. In CARDCAPTOR SAKURAThe mascot creature is Kero, a winged plush bear with a soft tail that guides the protagonist, Sakura, helping him to collect the cards to make. In SailorThe mascot is the Luna cat, Luna, who is responsible for finding, awakening and guiding the sailors of Renaiss.
The first ally of animal moral-booster in Weird adventure of Jojo is Jonathan’s dog, Danny, in the ghost blood arc. Danny was a frightened and angry puppy when Jonathan was a young boy, and they both learned to grow up together, becoming the best friends when Danny saved Jonathan’s life. Weird adventure of Jojo Distinguished more fantastic anime more fanciful by killing its allying character of a sweet animal mascot early in the anime. Another sweet animal character who also serves as a mascot for an arc of story arc to rally is the ggy dog of the Arc des Crusés Stardust.
Dio has more than one transformation of a dark magic girl
While the characteristics of the anime of magic girls are often found in many other fantastic and combat anime sub-genres, they are undoubtedly coded by girls when assembled. Although the transformation sequences do not appear in classic titles like CARDCAPTOR SAKURAWe could argue that the most important and most recognizable element of a magic girl anime is the transformation sequence. Weird adventure of Jojo To a few elements in his saga which undeniably feel like a magical transformation of girl, and they often have to do with the main villain of the series, Dio.
Dio is introduced into the first story arc, Phantom Blood. He is adopted in the Jestar family and immediately, he wants Jonathan and his status as heir to Golden Boy. He wants money, status and power, which pushes him to seek the stone mask, which transforms it into a vampire. Although Dio has a magical transformation, it is not exactly an episodic sequence. When it puts the stone mask and turns, however, it is something worthy of a celestial goddess (terribly diabolical), with pink stars, sound effects and glitter, followed closely by its more brutal trends. His next transformation is even more horrible, so legendary, as a macabre opinion of a magical evolution of girl when he replaces his body with that of Jonathan Joestar.
Jojo’s bizarre influence on the anime cannot be underestimated
One of the reasons why Weird adventure of Jojo is such a sustainable anime, it is because it has an inter-gender and inter-demographic appeal. Like Naoko Takeuchi, Hirohiko Araki has drawn many artistic inspirations for his Fantasy Campy series. Weird adventure of Jojo is shamelessly surreal and blurring gender lines and gender roles in its characterization. While Weird adventure of Jojo Technically, it is not a magic girl anime, it is clear that it was a fundamental influence on the anime of battle and fantasy. It seems incredibly likely that one may have informed the other in a sort of artistic feedback loop.
