Read the full take
JoJolion is one of the most divisive entries in the JoJo franchise, and it earns that reputation. The setting ties back to the earlier part in Morioh, but reframes it through a strange, unsettling lens. The art is distinctive, with character design and page layouts that feel different from what came before. The mystery at the core is intriguing, and the story keeps its cards close to its chest. The honest critique is pacing and tone. The narrative can feel disjointed, and the mystery takes a long time to pay off, which may test patience. Some readers will find the shifts in style refreshing, while others will feel the momentum fade. It rewards readers who enjoy puzzles and are willing to ride out the weirdness. If you are a longtime fan of the franchise, you will want to see where it goes. If you are new to JoJo, it is wise to start with an earlier part.
