Chapter 712: It's Useless

"JoJo's Bizarre Adventure" is not only a suspenseful story, but also includes a unique painting style, novel and distinct characters, an eclectic plot layout and magnificent characters.

Such a multi-layered, diversified, and multi-faceted all-round creative concept, whether in theatrical imagination, visual storyboarding, character and costume design...... and other aspects, all of which fully satisfy the reader's rich spiritual desires and enjoyment, so that the soul imprisoned by the real world is completely released here and integrated into a new place of adventure with a novel and colorful realm.

There is no doubt that comics have their own unique pictorial and theatrical forms, and their value is extremely wide and multifaceted. One of the educational values of comics comes from their entertaining nature. Because of the vivid expression of its picture, readers can repeatedly reminisce about its uniqueness, and then slowly get infected from its storyline, resonate in their hearts, and have their emotions stimulated.

Invisibly, it can change the reader's perception, inspire his thoughts, guide his emotions, and receive subtle effects. The adventure stories of the JOJOs inherit the unique "edutainment" fire of comics, embedded in a criss-crossing and boundless imagination space, and celebrate the proudest trait of human nature - "courage" through the proud lineage of the JOJO family.

And on the title page of "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure", the sentence is directly printed - "Two prisoners stand in front of the iron window and look out." One looked at the mud, the other at the stars. (Fredick Longebridge, "The Immortal Poem")"

This is a symbolic interpretation of the creative concept of the first part.

THE FIRST CHAPTER, TITLED "PHANTOM BLOOD", SHOWS THAT THE FATHER OF THE ORIGINAL JOJO TAKES IN HIS "SAVIOR" SON, AN ORPHAN NAMED DIO BRANDO. Raise him as an adult. BUT DIO PLOTTED AGAINST THE JOJO FAMILY'S PROPERTY. MURDERED JOJO'S FATHER. After the defeat, in order to take revenge, he did not hesitate to put on the mysterious stone ghost mask and became an immortal vampire, gaining incredible power. And JOJO later went with Will? A. Shepili learned Ripple Qigong. His youth is the youth with Dior, and JOJO wants to end this youth at the end!

In "Phantom Blood", JOJO and Dior, two protagonists with extremely contrasting personalities, explore two different ways of "survival". This is conveyed in the story of "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure".

The former is governed by the principle of self-idealism and socialization, while the latter is the best representative of indulgence and aggression.

In fact, not only the protagonists, but even the two main lines in the plot, "Stone Ghost Face" and "Ripple Gong", also symbolize different life characteristics: Stone Ghost Face continues to survive by sacrificing the essence of others, and Ripple Gong strengthens one's own energy to help others regain their vitality.

These two protagonists, who have extreme personalities and are intolerant of each other, contain each other in the environment, but they can't get rid of the mercy of fate, which is destined for the two to live and die together. With the fateful duel between Stone Ghost Face and Ripple Gong, the war between the two officially broke out, and JOJO's adventure legend began......

Another bloody masterpiece that the porter master has been silent for a long time, and as soon as it appears, it pushes fans into this bottomless pit in an alternative way. And in the blood. There is no shortage of strategy, and there is no shortage of explanation in strategy...... The latter sentence can be ignored. Ever since I watched JOJO. Fans have felt a new way of expressing themselves.

The commentary, which was supposed to be only in the hearts of the onlookers or the narration, burst out with an extraordinary attraction through the supporting characters or the occasional cameo of the protagonist in it.

In addition to the tense battle, the commentary inserted just right, not only did not produce a sense of disobedience and affected the atmosphere of the battle, but subtly integrated with it, making the atmosphere more intense!

Just like the on-site commentary in the finals of various competitions, these unprecedented and unheard of novel "commentary" mode comics are even regarded as "martial arts cheats" by some commentators - especially the e-sports commentary, which is the essence of the commentary.

Even He Chen didn't expect that one of his "JoJo's Bizarre Adventures" would increase the average business ability of the interpretation industry.

However, for the vast majority of fans, the commentary is only one of the features, a highlight, and the real center of their concern is still on JOJO and DIO.

Some people say that if you want to understand the personalities of the two protagonists, or even better understand the original qualities in their personalities, you can try to analyze the underlying qualities of JOJO and Dior through the psychodynamic theory of Freud, a master of psychology.

In the concept of the psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud, the personality is regarded as a whole, and this whole system is composed of three parts: the id, the ego and the superego, each of which has its own characteristics and functions, but will interact with each other and have different inner domination effects on individual behavior at different times.

The constituent elements of the "id" include the "instinct of life" and the "instinct of death". The "instinct of life" refers to the human desire for survival, which is the primordial internal motivation that drives an individual's behavior, while the "instinct of death" refers to the two primitive impulses of attack and destruction.

When the needs of the "id" arise, they demand that the desires be satisfied immediately and not be suppressed by the environment and morality. If we look at the principle that governs human nature, the mind that governs the self is the principle of pleasure.

DIO is the fundamental manifestation of the development of the "id" trait to the extreme. From the beginning of the sentence, in front of his father's grave - "...... As long as I can live, I will try to use everything I can use......"

You can clearly feel his deep consciousness of survival, and this consciousness drives him to do whatever it takes to complete his plan to annex the Jojo family's property. After becoming a vampire, with a strong body that serves immortality, his primitive characteristics of "self" have degenerated into a violent, cruel, domineering and vicious independent character, and his shocking nature is fully revealed.

The "superego" is the moral part of the personality structure, and its constituent elements include the "self-ideal", which requires one's behavior to conform to one's ideals, and the other is the "conscience", which stipulates that one's behavior cannot exceed the norms.

Their formation is the result of parental discipline and socialization in early childhood.

If the behavior is in line with one's ideals, one will be proud of oneself, and if one violates one's conscience, it is easy to feel guilty.

Jonathan Joestar can be regarded as the ideal standard for the representative of the "superego". During his childhood, he hated DIO's treachery and lamented the loneliness of his friends, but on the other hand, in order to conform to the standards of a gentleman, he constantly tolerated DIO's aggression and suppressed his dissatisfaction.

However, the social norms identified by the "superego" are not just repressive, it has more cognition that helps JOJO grow.

For example, in order to save Alina's reputation, in order to protect his father and the Joestar family, JOJO has a strong faith to face various challenges. It wasn't until DIO became an evil vampire that the primitive qualities of his "superego": "ideal" and "conscience", had a supervisory function over the "id".

The sense of mission and destiny drove JOJO to practice Ripple Gong and find DIO, ending the old and new hatreds of the past for the survival of all mankind. The idealized nature of JOJO's "superego" is thus established.

In Freud's theory, the "ego" is positioned between the "id" and the "superego", and the conflict between the "id" and the control of the "superego" have the function of regulating and buffering.

The "self" is the one who accommodates the limitations of reality when the needs of the "self" cannot be met in the real environment. It can be said that the trait of the self is universal, that is, a more social character.

Such a philosophical analysis of the characters of JOJO and DIO is eye-catching.

But these are of no avail.

Because most people like "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure", not because it is full of reflection and analysis of literary and artistic human nature, but simply like the world, like these characters, and the wonderful stories brought to them by these characters.

Whether it's the adventure story of wits and courage, or the heroic, tenacious, and persevering positive energy spirit of the protagonist, or the villain who is awe-inspiring but also has a powerful charm, or the one who can't help but stand in front of the mirror and secretly learn about JOJO, take a photo, and then immediately delete the photo in shame, and be happy to be smirking at himself, or the fierce commentary of the "words with sound", or the fashion-setting clothing decoration of the characters, or the " EulaOulaOuraOuraOura"......

These are very appealing to them, but they just like the story of "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure", can't they?

Obviously, no one can interfere with the fans' hobbies.

No matter where they are, their love for JOJO is the same, and it will not change.

He Chen's assistants basically have the wonderful comics they want to serialize, and He Chen naturally won't forget the little hata Ken who has superb drawing skills, but his ability to create stories is always regrettable.

Hirohiko Araki serialized "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure", which originally belonged to him.

Now, another work belonging to him awaits him.

"Do you like Go?"

The black and white world like the stars, spanning thousands of years of love for Go, just to pursue the hand of the gods, this ancient game, finally kicked off. (To be continued......)
