Story
- The first thing Speedwagon says when he appears to Jotaro and Joseph in the airport is to remark on how buff they are. Said buffness is also how he realizes that they’re related to Jonathan.
- When Jotaro asks Koichi if he's seen anything strange recently, Koichi is unsure if he means normal strange or Morioh strange.
- During chapter 3, Old Joseph and Part 3 Jotaro meets with Part 4 Josuke.Jotaro: Josuke Higashikata, was it? Koichi told me your name.Old Joseph: (does an epic Oh, Crap! face)
- During Chapter 5, Old Joseph meets his young self and tries to explain to him what is going on.Old Joseph: Well, I'd better introduce myself. The name is Joseph Joestar. Any questions?Young Joseph: WHAAAAAT?!!Old Joseph: And this young tough guy wannabe is Jotaro. My grandson.Jotaro: ...Old Joseph: We come from the future of this time period.Young Joseph: WHADDYA SAY? I really wondered what you were gonna say. You came from the future? Did you hit your head or something...Old Joseph: ...is what you should say. Any who would hear that would have the same reaction, I think. But once you will see that, you will have no choice but to believe that we've been travelling through time. Jotaro, the turtle, please.(Jotaro puts the turtle on the floor)Old Joseph: Hey, Speedwagon. Can you come out for a bit?Young Joseph: What? Speedwagon?(Speedwagon pops out of the turtle.)Speedwagon: You called me?Young Joseph: SOMEONE CAME OUT OF THE TURTLE! And that face! I saw it on an old photo of Grandma Erina!Speedwagon: Huh? Who's that young lad?Old Joseph: He's the young me. I wanted for him to see your face so he can have a better understanding of the situation.Speedwagon: Hey! You're the spitting image of Mr. Joestar. I really want to take some time to talk to you right now, but I'm pretty busy taking care of Mr. Joestar while he's resting. See you later, Joseph.Young Joseph: DOUBLE SHOCK! * This is even more shocking than meeting with ghosts. Young Speedwagon! And the old decrepit me who came from the future is staring at me!
- After beating Joshu and purifying him of the mind control
, Joshu threatens to beat Josuke 4 up. Josuke then has Crazy Diamond hit him again, and when Josuke 8 asks why:Josuke Higashikata (DiU): He didn't look like he'd snapped out of it, so I hit him again."(Beat)Josuke Higashikata (JJL): Fair enough.- Made better by Josuke 4 using the holy corpse again. It seems he legitimately thought Joshu was still under mind control, while Josuke 8 clearly knows better and knows Joshu is just an ass.
- One random conversation with Mista will have him boast that he'll "bury [his] bullets right into DIO's brain" with his "silent-killer" type stand. Yes, he really said that he thinks Sex Pistols are "silent killers".
- Bucciarati attempts to attack Jotaro and Giorno, only for Jotaro to send him flying back in a single punch.
Gameplay
- A playable build featuring Speedwagon was shown at the Tokyo Game Show, with Speedwagon's seiyuu playing as him... And he spends the entire match barely doing any fighting, which Youtube comments note is fairly accurate to the character. To top it all off, his Seiyuu made his exit at the end of the presentation with his character's famous quote: "Speedwagon withdraws coolly."
- PV 2 has Speedwagon flinging his flying razor hat to attack Dio, posing with a smug look on his face while Dio is flinching in a hilarious manner. In fact, everyone else (Joseph and Okuyasu especially) seems to make some pretty funny faces. For those of you that miss Giorno's slow-mo punch from All-Star Battle, this is just as good.
- After a preview of Eyes of Heaven's very first cutscene, we see the end of Part 3, Jotaro, Joseph, and Polnareff all going their separate ways at the airport, until the two former are interrupted by none other than Speedwagon himself. Yes, Phantom Blood Speedwagon.
- While Akira Otoishi is remotely controlling RHCP, he can be seen by other players rocking out in place, with spotlights coming from nowhere.
- The physics of Kakyoin's trademark hair-noodle are amusingly well-animated. (Interestingly, one of his skins notably lacks the hair-noodle entirely.)
- One of Giorno's skins is him completely naked, with a wispy, floating cloth conveniently obscuring his private zones.
- Anastasia/Anasui and Ermes from part 6 have this as a possible exchange:Ermes: Man, this Dude Looks Like a Lady...Anastasia/Anasui, Man, this Lady Looks Like a Dude..
- And after the battle?
Anastasia/Anasui: So you ARE a woman. Stop confusing me! - Jonathan has a skin where he is entirely barechested. This grants him an uncanny resemblance to Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star, one of the series which inspired JJBA!
- One of the bonus costumes for the game is Joseph's disguise when trying to infiltrate the Nazi stronghold◊ early in part 2, which has been dubbed "Tequila Joseph". This is one of the few DLC outfits that doesn't come from a chapter intro page or promo art, like some of the others, but from an actual chapter in the manga. What's better? He has Jiggle Physics in that outfit.
- Among the other characters' reactions to the Tequila outfit, none seem as freaked out or distressed as...none other than Old Joseph himself. His screams of "OH MY GOOOD!" is a clear hint that there are some things in his youth he'd rather not be reminded of...
- And he's the only character in the game to have Jiggle Physics! Not even Mariah has this! Although, Mariah's bra is filled with screws.
- Even better, if you start a match with Caesar and Joseph while he's wearing that outfit, instead of a Pre-Mortem One-Liner in their intro, you get this dialogue exchange.
Joseph: Let's go, Caesar!(beat)Joseph: Caesar?Caesar: (Barely holding in his laughter) No...it's nothing, let's start, JoJo.- Nearly every pre-reset protagonist (barring Josuke) has a special intro and win dialogue with Joseph while he's wearing it, including Speedwagon, Lisa Lisa, the Pillar Men, Stroheim, both Dios, Will Zeppeli, the Part 3 protagonists, all the other JoJos from Parts 1-6 and the aforementioned Caesar. They all have some really interesting things to say about the disguise he is donning.
- His dialogue with Jolyne is the best, as after the fight is over, they simply laugh at each other. Alternatively, she ends up giving him tips on how to improve it. "Manscaping is, like, crossdressing 101!"
- The Pillar Men's interactions are also a total riot- Esidisi falls for it, Wammu is completely confused by the whole thing, and Kars mocks the disguise.
- His winning quote with Kakyoin has him asking him if he wants to try out the outfit too; Kakyoin rejects the offer.
- Polnareff asks Joseph out on a date; he then finds out and freaks out in their winning quote.
- What's even more hilarious is that Polnareff isn't the only one to mistake Joseph for a woman - Jotaro and Giorno of all people, do, too!Jotaro: (after winning a fight against Tequila Joseph and both P3 and P4, no less!) huh? You're a...guy?Giorno: (after winning a fight against Tequila Joseph) Wait a minute...this lady is a man!
- What's even more hilarious is that Polnareff isn't the only one to mistake Joseph for a woman - Jotaro and Giorno of all people, do, too!
- Part 3 DIO being in utter disbelief at his outfit, making Joseph exclaim that he should've changed. If DIO wins the fight, he then comments that he doesn't have the desire to drink his blood anymore. And if Joseph wins...
Joseph: I won! I avenged my grandfather... in drag!- What's funnier is that even Jonathan, Joseph's grandfather who he never met, has something to say about his interesting choice of clothing. However, rather than questioning just what he's wearing, Jonathan is more concerned and impressed about just how Joseph can fight in that outfit.
Jonathan: Stand down, Joseph! There's no way you can fight dressed like that!Joseph: I've been given up on, haven't I?(After they win)Joseph: After seeing me in action, he'll leave me alone.Jonathan: I'm surprised. Even dressed like that, he can still fight...!- P4 Jotaro is utterly done with Tequila Joseph in one of their winning quotes.Jotaro: You cross-dress and you cheat on your wife? I've really had with you, old man...
- Jolyne isn't the only character to give constructive criticism of Joseph's outfit. More than one character points out that no amount of makeup is gonna hide the fact that Joseph is so buff (when Polneraff points this out, Joseph exlaims that he never even considered this fact), and Lisa Lisa, in one her win quotes, decides to give Joseph make-up training alongside his Hamon training - as if she's decided "if my son is gonna be cross-dressing, I might as well teach him how to do it properly."
- Josuke, depending on what he says, either actually thinks Joseph is into crossdressing and promises to keep it a secret, or he thinks his dad has gone senile way too early and thinks he should be institutionalized.
- If you put two Tequila Josephs in a Mirror Match, they'll mock each other's outfit.
- Among the other characters' reactions to the Tequila outfit, none seem as freaked out or distressed as...none other than Old Joseph himself. His screams of "OH MY GOOOD!" is a clear hint that there are some things in his youth he'd rather not be reminded of...
- At one point in PV 04, without any context a clip is played of Joshu... running in an incredibly undignified manner, yelling Yasuho's name.
- Some of the special Dual attacks are this.
- Jo2uke's only other partner from Part 8 is Joshu, who really hates Jo2uke's guts and has quite a few screws loose. The fact that they both have a unique intro and Dual Heat attack is hilarious when one considers that every other JoJo has one of each with at least one of their own trusted allies.
- Even better? Joshu does NOTHING with his stand in their DHA. Jo2uke just punches the enemy, Joshu runs towards them, and Jo2uke steals Joshu's friction, sending him crashing into the enemy, all with a smirk on his face. And to top it off, while Joshu's crashing into the enemy, Jo2uke is just standing in the foreground in his "I win! Completely!" pose.
- And when the special DHA is triggered by Joshu, the animation leads with him acting all ready to go, and Josuke's reaction is to just cock an eyebrow and open his mouth without a word.
- Jolyne and Ermes' Dual Heat attack starts with Ermes putting her stickers on Stone Free's arms, only for Jolyne to flip out at her doing so without warning her. Ermes proceeds to kick back and let the four-armed Stone Free handle things.
- Jolyne has unique Dual Heat Attacks and Intros with Ermes and Weather Report...but not poor, lovelorn Anasui.
- DIO and Giorno's DHA starts out with DIO using The World on their opponent while going "MUDAMUDAMUDA" as usual. Then Gold Experience joins in as Giorno does his own version of DIO's Kiai. DIO is at first annoyed, but he gets into it as they beat down their foe.
- Dio and DIO's Dual Heat has the former freeze their foe, only for DIO to freeze time and use his Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs attack with the World before time resumes and he casually dodges his younger self's Space Ripper Stingy Eyes by nonchalantly tilting his head, setting up the attack on the already-flying target. Then they do a double "WRRRRRRRYYYY!!!''
- Even better, if Part 3 DIO is the one to start it, they both start with the classic "MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA!"
- Joseph screwing up his Hermit Purple attack during his DHA with Jotaro. It's a ruse, though.
- Iggy naps for most of his DHA with Polnareff, leaving him to do most of the work until their joint Meteor Move at the end.
Polnareff: Iggy! Now's your chance to strike—(cut to Iggy, sound asleep)Polnareff: Oh, you bastard!- Iggy when he has his Pre-Art Evolution Alt costume will end his DHA by farting in the opponent's face. Bonus points if the opponent is KO'd by it; because the animation is always them being launched backwards while screaming, this implies that Iggy sent them flying just by farting.
- Rohan mentioning how he hates Josuke. Naturally, Josuke defends himself with a bunch of punches from Crazy Diamond and calls Rohan out on his momentary betrayal.
- When Josuke starts this attack, he just remarks he's got no choice, but is still confident that this will be a good idea. When Rohan starts it? He scowls at Josuke and Josuke coughs awkwardly.
- Avdol and Polnareff's DHA is both this and awesome; funny because most of the stuff that they do and say comes from when they were still enemies!*
- Jo2uke's only other partner from Part 8 is Joshu, who really hates Jo2uke's guts and has quite a few screws loose. The fact that they both have a unique intro and Dual Heat attack is hilarious when one considers that every other JoJo has one of each with at least one of their own trusted allies.
- One of Kakyoin's special costumes is his pajamas from the Death 13 chapters. That's right, Kakyoin can fight in his PJ's.
- One of the interactive stage elements in Morioh is Cafe Deux Magots serving espresso at one of their tables, and interacting with it results in the character sitting down and drinking espresso or the like (when not just taking a load off) in the heat of battle.
- Every character has a unique animation when sitting at the table. Some of them drink coffee, some drink another type of drink, and some just relax for a bit. What do the Pillar Men do? They push the chair aside and pose next to it! Kars even looks more like he's showing off his biceps in his pose, too.
- Despite not being one of the Pillar Men, Trish does exactly the same thing. Justified, as the Pillar men don't need to drink and Trish only drinks French mineral water... which would be hard to find in Japan.
- Not just that; Akira takes the time to bust out a few riffs while sitting on the back of the chair!
- And if that's not enough, Rohan's little wince at the coffee's taste could give a chuckle.
- Scary Monsters Diego gulps down his coffee as quickly as he can and lurches over to slam the cup back on the table, knocking his hat out of place which he quickly fixes. *
- Amusingly, Dio's first incarnation drinks straight from a whisky bottle while DIO swirls a wine glass.
- DIO also uses the World to pull out his chair.
- If she's in her alternate costume and still has her mask on, Lisa Lisa can sip wine through the mask. Now that's skill.
- Funny Valentine shotguns a beer and then goes, "Yes! Yes!"
- Gyro takes a quick sip and then turns to the camera and rests his head on his folded hands, similar to the "Domenica (Sunday)" part of his "7 Days of the Week" joke.
- While not acting in a particularly funny manner, Narancia only comes about chest high to the table.
- Another thing to note is that whoever is the character that you use to do this action will regain their health. This can lead to some unintentionally hilarious moments like Speedwagon regaining health by reading a newspaper, Stroheim regaining health by lounging about and spinning his hand, Hol Horse and Mariah regaining health by smoking, Akira regaining health by playing his guitar, Bucciarati regaining health by looking sad, Fugo regaining health by napping at the table, Johnny regaining health by brushing his teeth with his nails, and the Pillar Men and Trish regaining health by posing next to the chair. The funniest in hindsight though is N'Doul, who seems to regain health by just sitting at the table...doing nothing else. Its borderline Wins by Doing Absolutely Nothing with him.
- Every character has a unique animation when sitting at the table. Some of them drink coffee, some drink another type of drink, and some just relax for a bit. What do the Pillar Men do? They push the chair aside
- The insulting Josuke's hair gag came back. Some highlights:
- Stroheim saying how he will pluck his hair out like chicken feathers until it turns into a ball of yarn.
- Kars gives a Backhanded Compliment, calling it "befitting for a peasant".
- Since Jotaro has two incarnations now, his Part 4 version uses the line from All-Star Battle. Part 3's Jotaro is much more brutal, as he uses the same line on Josuke's hair that he used on Rubber Soul.
Jotaro: I have nothing left to say to you... that hair... it's too pathetic for me to say anything else.- Old Joseph, once again, saying that his parents would be ashamed to have a son with a hairstyle like that... and keep in mind, who is Josuke's father?
- DIO still compares Josuke's hair to cow shit.
- Hol Horse nonchalantly recommends that Josuke should also wear a hat.
- Polnareff declares that he'll cut Josuke's hair into "a more proper style". Going by his definition of that, he likely means trimming it into a tall cylinder!
- N'Doul also gets in with the insulting. And he's blind.
N'Doul: This guy's head... is something sitting on it?- Josuke somehow understanding Pet Shop.
- He also understands Iggy, though Pet Shop has the aggravating circumstance of not having any intelligible inner monologue. Then again, Iggy doesn't actually say anything in particular to piss Josuke off; he just chuckles.
- Yukako, a person whose hair is capable of turning stark white and physically assaulting people...calling Josuke's hair unsightly.
- Shigechi says Josuke has a weird head. This is coming from the guy who is bald and has spikes growing out of his head.
- Giorno and Kakyoin's insults can be summed up to them thinking their hairstyles are better than Josuke's.
- Mista telling Sex Pistols to target Josuke's hair.
- Fugo putting his thoughts in the most blunt way possible.
Fugo: That hair is a piece of shit!- Trish's is particularly emasculating.
Trish: What's up with that hair?! Teehee, how lame! It's soo uncool!!- Diavolo declares that the only "result" that he will allow is calling Josuke's hair garbage. It's a pun about his own powers, and it's hilariously OOC for him.
- The localization team managed to make Diavolo's insult even funnier.
Diavolo: The results are the only thing that remain! And as a result, you will be forever known as the man with a mountain of feces atop his head!- Ermes still calls Josuke a "regent-styled pig".
- Weather Report/Forcast wonders out loud if Josuke's hair is like that because it was struck by lighting. WR/F didn't even mean to insult Josuke; Josuke gets pissed anyway.
- Ditto that for Jonathan, who wonders aloud what would happen if he hit Josuke's hair with Hamon.
- Three for three: Kosaku!Kira asks Josuke if he's already blown him up.
- Valentine takes this one step further by declaring Josuke's hairstyle to be outright banned in his country. This coming from President "Chandelier Head" Valentine.
- Johnny's response seems to be a compliment in text, but Josuke can apparently sense the sarcasm.
Johnny: That hairstyle's good. Really great. Super cool!- Joshu's insult isn't that hilarious, but given that he's got an even weirder hairstyle, he really shouldn't be talking...
Joshu: Nowadays, not even thugs wear a hairstyle like that. - As mentioned hair insult above, if you paired Josuke 8 and Joshu against Josuke 4 and Koichi. Joshu making fun of Josuke 4's hairstyle prompted the fight start, the intro and victory quote from both side is ironically funny.
- Before battle
Joshu: Pfft! What a loser! Hey, Josuke, look at that guy's head!Josuke 8: Stop it, Joshu, that's rude.(cut to Josuke 4 with very angry response)Josuke 4: Damn it, You bastard!Koichi: Josuke! Calm down!- If Joshu and Josuke 8 won:
Joshu: I HATE the delinquents like them!Josuke 8: If that's how you act, it's no wonder you get shook down all the time.- If Josuke 4 and Koichi won:
Koichi: That guy is in no position to be talking about hairstyles...Josuke 4: I still haven't punched you enough yet!! - Put Kakyoin and Polnareff on the same team, and...Kakyoin: Your. Underwear. Is. Showing.Polnareff: YEEEEEAH!
- If Okuyasu defeats Vanilla Ice:
- If Okuyasu and Jotaro (Part 4) are pitted against each other we get this great quotes:Okuyasu: I want a technique with a cool name too!Jotaro: What are you on about, Okuyasu?(after Okuyasu wins)Okuyasu: "THE HAND THE WORLD!" ... Sorry, I just thought it might work...
- Joseph pronouncing Kakyoin's name as "Cack-Yo-Ween" in their intro quote.
- Part 3 Jotaro (who's from 1989) having a momentary "old man" moment when he finds out Pucci's Stand is disc-based:Jotaro: Wait, did you say disc? Is it like a cassette?Jolyne: Generation gaaap!
- In order not to get both Josuke Higashikatas confused, Speedwagon refers to the Part 4 one just as Josuke, and the Part 8 one as Hat Josuke.
- You thought Filthy Acts at a Reasonable Price was the funniest Dub Name Change in JoJo video games? Well, the title just got a strong contender in Limp Bizkit's translation: "Flaccid Pancake".
- Most likely unintentional, but it's hard not to laugh every time someone from Parts 4-8 mention how young Part 3 Jotaro looks, given that he's rather infamous for apparently aging in reverse due to the Art Evolution of the series.
- Polnareff and Iggy's shared intro: Iggy's trying to hang on Polnareff's shoulders and failing while both of them complain about fighting together.
- Pitting Giorno against Jolyne or Josuke may have dialogue of them fighting over Giorno stealing their wallets.
- Even funnier, even if he wins Giorno gets very little from either.
(If it's Jolyne) "Only 5 dollars? That's not even enough to buy pizza."
(If it's Josuke) "What in the... He's only got 12 yen in his wallet?" - Whenever Rohan and Yukako are paired up to fight, their dialogue essentially turns into a catfight over Koichi.
- If Kosaku is fighting against Shigechi, the former will react with complete befuddlement to his presence. The inflection of the voice actor is what makes it.
- If you have a match of P3!Jotaro & Jolyne vs. DIO & Giorno:Jotaro: I don't believe this crap... He has a son?Jolyne: EX-CUSE ME! Aren't you forgetting someone?
- Pucci and Jolyne's interactions where they are allied are pure gold.
- They can be utterly weirded out by the mere thought of teaming up.
Jolyne: What?Pucci: Hm?(after their victory)Jolyne: What, you got something to say?Pucci: Begone. I'll just pretend I never saw you.- Or Jolyne can roast Pucci.
Pucci: We must love even our enemies.Jolyne: I don't like you.(after their victory)Pucci: Everyone receives an equal amount of God's love. Even people like you…Jolyne: Back to hell with you! - Nearly all of the dialogue between Anasui and Jotaro has the former begging the latter to let him marry Jolyne. Part 3 Jotaro is just confused by this, since he has no idea who Jolyne even is. Part 4 Jotaro on the other hand reacts with clear hostility, because Jolyne was only six in his time.
- If two Mariahs face each other, they'll compliment each others' legs.
