JoJo's Part Five Episode 26

Him being too broken is a meme, yes Araki wanted Fugo to show up again against the JoBros, but Araki was in a dark place at that point in time and he couldn't emotionally handle making them fight a once ally, Giorno would be fine since he's new but how would Narancia react to them having to possibly kill Fugo?

Aye Jaye

Fugo ain’t no bitch the reason Fugo didn’t come with them is because the author saw how broken Fugo’s stand was, so he decided to write him out of the story, at first he was gonna have Fugo betray them, but again his stand is too broken so if everyone fought him they would pretty much all die, and killing him off wouldn’t work because it would not make sense considering how broken his stand is, so this was the only way for Araki.

I'm so sorry Ant. I know the that I have sinned. Forgive me.

when is the effects into? Farther than you'd think, closer than you'd like.

i think i might know who's the p7 character you talkin' about. does this character likes pizza mozzarella ?

ffp

i mean it doesn't show him stabbing himself at all. he is probably stabbing >something<, but it doesn't show that either. who knows what he's doing with it! maybe he's using it to make scrambled eggs!

Princess Paladin

Doppio is my favorite characters along with Rohan and a part 7 character. He is just the cutest little psycopath

Beelz

If you guys get the chance, check out the dub of their voices. Hell, a LOT of them have great english voices. The Boss and Bruno are by far my favorites. The former because of the raw power he puts into his voice, and the latter because he's one of my favorite VAs, Ray Chase.

My adorable doppio

Secco Mode

Doppio my sweet doppio

Hollowjac

Bro ... Ant had a maxxor moment there lmao.

Much like Part 4's Joshikage Kira intro, this one is also wildly entertaining, and also upsetting to imagine happening..

cyberspacecat

waiting for ep 27, it will be guuuuud

Soul_XIII

Ant hates me >.< :porosad:

LampyLust

IMO ep 27 is one of part 5's peak episodes, excited for the reaction!

Mark Waschuk

Just joined Patreon right before posting this comment so ant ain't talking bout' me. Also the fight with Doppio and Risoto is my favourite of the whole part. God Doppio is the funniest and I KNEW Alicia would love his adorable idiocy.

Daniel Braidek

the intro is so nice !!!

Soul_XIII

Thats actually a huge spoiler...

Speedwagon

If this is a causality Stand then I'd consider all the other time-based ones being causality in their own ways as well

Yagi di Hoshi

Yeah, I can believe it, but that sounds about as canon to me as that frog being the descendant of the one Will A Zeppeli punched

Yagi di Hoshi

damn i wonder who ant told to go fuck himself that probably sucks <--oblivious

Statboosts

The best way to explain King Crimson IMO is that it is a Causality type Stand as opposed to a time based Stand. The Boss is kind of a coward, so his stand is perfect for someone who is running from fate and his past. King Crimson allows him to erase cause for everyone around him but keep the effect. However he can escape both cause and effect for himself by predicting the future. He can simply remove himself entirely from the reality of a situation and I mean this literally of course.

Jargo

I wanna say until I sat down and watched the series, I legit thought Doppio was fucking possessed somehow by King Crimson

The Sigil Chronicles

I agree with this theory for 1 reason that would be a spoiler to Alicia if she happens to read comments so ill wait to comment on it till we get to it in the reactions

Shadowsofpain

DID is a result of trauma, you arent born with it, and what we see from doppios eaely life is just doppio, his eyes, his personality and just that, when he was born we saw his eyes 1st then the bosses, there was a clear switch that happened when the preist found the mom

VJ Sins

I'm not sure if that's actually canon, that sounds more like headcanon to me.

IcyVillage6

And now we know why King Crimson has 2 faces :D Without spoiling much, you know how a stand represents the soul? Well both Doppio and the boss are their own soul, so they have each one stand, but since their souls are intrensically linked, they are fuzed into one stand. The boss is just gaslighting Doppio that "Oh my cute doppio, didnt you forget i GAVE you a part of my King Crimson" like the stinky bitch the boss is

VJ Sins

The saddest part about Vinegar Doppio is that he is the original Alter, the boss was born out of the traume of being held in the womb for 2 years, but most of their life was just doppio, then suddenly the boss just decides to completely fuck over doppios life and pursue his insterests, and then stockholm syndrome his own headmate. But yeah this isnt a chiche good boy and bad boy alter, even tho doppio started as good boy by now he is as rutheless as anyone else in the organization, so yeah

VJ Sins

Yes! I've been waiting for you to reach these moments! Yay!!! 😀

Marta Kira Ayanami

I can't say how good/bad this is when it comes to how people with Dissociative Identity Disorder could feel about it, it could still be offensive to those with DID, but at the very least it's not the Hollywood crap of evil personality on good person. The boss might be more evil than Doppio, but Doppio still very much thinks he's working for the boss, meaning he's mafioso. He's not a bad person because he has DID, he's just a bad person that happens to have DID. That's way better than the older movies that painted a picture of DID making you evil.

Aye Jaye

fun fact: Doppio means "double" so the boss is basically talkin to his "double"

Zuku

I love it when you nail these razor sharp observations

GeneralBass

Ant.... I'm not gonna bother you anymore.... Is it all good?

Benedikt Spálovský

I have things to say about king Crimson but I'll save it for later. Oh! In the meantime, the reason you probly never heard of the band King Crimson is because they're super old from the 60s or 70s, and they only recently allowed their music to be streamed in 2020/2021! They're very good, I highly recommend checking out the songs Epitaph, 21st Century Schizoid Man, and of course Court of the Crimson King

Harper

This is 100% wild AF :D

Thiren_Skrymir

I like to imagine King crimson as lag but in real life

King Crimson is confusing only in concept, the idea is that first, he perceives 5 seconds into the future then his stand allows only him to make an action during those 5 seconds, then no one but him perceives those 5 seconds

Joseline

i hope its me

Don't worry Ant, this part of JoJo has been out for almost 30 years and there are still people who don't know how the fuck king crimson works. With that said, I hope it doesn't concern you that it is probably not even in the top 5 most confusing stands in the series. You need a degree in Standology to follow along in part 8.

Oscar Wright

So we just not listening to the ending anymore? Modern Crusaders is a bop!

MrBulldog714

I think this is the slickest explanation of KC I've read thus far

Yagi di Hoshi

Think of a sequence of events going 1 - 2 - 3. What King Crimson does is take 2 out of that sequence so now everyone will experience jumping from 1 to 3. But 2 is still happening, it's just not going to be perceived by anyone else than the boss. The other part of King Crimson requires knowing how Fate works in JoJo's, which is that it is essentially gravity, and will pull people and objects down their lives. When King Crimson's effect activates, everything happening in 2 is getting pulled along by Fate, but the Boss has total freedom to do whatever he wants within 2, while everyone else must follow their Fate. This is how King Crimson works.

Dyno

The colors on Doppio: Pink, Purple, Blue...HMM (coincidentally this chapter is from 1998 when the bisexual pride flag was adopted, LMAO) Also, yeah, I think this is the one I've re-watched the most of this Part

Yagi di Hoshi

You cannot make me insecure with such weak insults. You gotta try harder than that.

Barnabás Mucsi

It's okay Ant, I know it's me

Maximum Daximum

in my opinion, this is where part 5 starts to get GOOD good.

Potato Tower

Thank you for the episode! Doppio is a fav of mine I adore him lol, this is also my fav jojo fight! Love how brutal it is lol

Lemon Rat

I love this episode and the next episode is my all time favourite Risotto and Doppio are so FUN

Keem

Doppio was 100% down to murder that cab driver lol. It was ironically the boss that talked him out of it.
