JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is a long-running, generational Japanese manga and anime series written and illustrated by Hirohiko Araki. It is known for its distinct art style, intense fashion, poses (JoJo-dachi), and a story that spans multiple generations of the Joestar family, each with a protagonist whose name can be abbreviated to "JoJo".
The series follows the Joestar family across multiple generations, beginning in the late 19th century with Jonathan Joestar, who battles the vampire Dio Brando. Each part introduces new protagonists, all nicknamed "JoJo," who face various challenges, often involving bizarre supernatural powers known as "Stands."
Yes, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is deeply integrated with LGBTQ+ culture, featuring homoerotic themes, flamboyant aesthetics, and explicitly queer characters, with author Hirohiko Araki confirming some identities, making it a significant series for many in the LGBTQ+ fandom due to its unique style and progressive representation, including confirmed bisexual villain Dio and gay couples like Squalo and Tiziano.
JoJo Siwa first came out as queer in January 2021 at age 17, sparking the conversation with a TikTok video wearing a "Best Gay Cousin Ever" shirt, though she later clarified she felt pressured to identify specifically as a lesbian, and now embraces being broadly queer, recognizing her sexuality is fluid, as discussed on Celebrity Big Brother UK in 2025.
In JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Jesus is a central figure in the Steel Ball Run, depicted similarly to the Latter-Day Saints' portrayal, suggesting he taught the Gospel in North America. He is associated with the Saint's Corpse, implied to be the biblical Jesus Christ.
The Bible says Jesus is unique in both His person and His purpose. He wasn't just some spiritual individual during His time on earth; He was both God's Son (John 3:16) and God Himself—God in human flesh (1 Timothy 3:16). Yes, He was fully man, but He was also fully God (Colossians 2:9).
Though the “Karma” singer used to self-identify as a lesbian since coming out in 2021, she discovered through her new romance with Big Brother UK castmate Chris Hughes that she now aligns with a different letter of the LGBTQIA+ alphabet.
There's no single "most" LGBT anime, but popular and influential titles include Revolutionary Girl Utena, a classic exploring gender roles and romance; Yuri!!! on Ice and Given, acclaimed for their BL (Boys' Love) romance; Banana Fish, a dark action series with a deep bond; and series like Junjou Romantica or Sasaki and Miyano, known for specific BL/GL themes. Anime featuring significant queer characters or themes also span genres like magical girl (Sailor Moon), fantasy (Stars Align), and slice-of-life (The Wandering Son), offering diverse representation.
JoJo Siwa opened up about her gender identity, saying she doesn't feel like a female or a male. She added that she doesn't really know what she is, stating, “It's OK to not know.”
Yes, there are many LGBTQ+ animes, ranging from genres like romance (yuri/BL), fantasy, sci-fi, comedy, and slice-of-life, featuring explicit queer characters, themes, or non-binary representation, with popular examples including Revolutionary Girl Utena, Yuri!!! on Ice, Bloom Into You, Given, Land of the Lustrous, and Zombieland Saga, showcasing diverse queer identities and relationships.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure features several confirmed and heavily implied LGBTQ+ characters, including Dio Brando (bisexual/non-binary), the gay couples Sorbet & Gelato, Squalo & Tiziano (Part 5), and the transgender character Dragona Joestar (Part 9), alongside others like bisexual Scarlet Valentine (Part 7), with many queer themes and homoerotic undertones throughout the series, especially in its iconic style and character dynamics.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure has killed off main characters before, but the main protagonists, the Joestars, usually get passed over. However, this time everyone dies except for Emporio. Jolyne, Jotaro, Hermes, and Anastasia all perish during combat with Pucci.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure has officially exceeded One Piece in total printed manga pages. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure 25,142+ pages 190 chapters Published since 1987 • One Piece 23,100+ pages 1,155 chapters Published since 1997 The difference comes from serialization format.
At 17, JoJo Siwa publicly dated TikToker Mark Bontempo from August to November 2020, her first known public relationship before she came out as part of the LGBTQ+ community in January 2021 and later dated Kylie Prew.
JoJo, who identifies as bisexual, confirmed her relationship with Chris, who rose to fame on Love Island and is 10 years her senior, last year, after they became close during their time on Celebrity Big Brother.
The annunciation stories in Matthew and Luke claim that Jesus was conceived without a human father, but later in the Gospel of Luke, Joseph is listed as Jesus' parent and father (Luke 2:27, 33, 48; 4:22). Indeed, through Joseph's lineage, Jesus is shown to have descended from King David (Luke 3:23–38).
Most prayer is directed to God the Father. Jesus teaches us to pray to the Father, and He prays to the Father throughout His time on Earth (John 16:23 and John 17:1-26). When we are saved, God becomes our Father, too (John 1:12). We can bring any request before Him, and He will hear us (Philippians 4:6).
In Christianity, the title "Son of God" refers to the status of Jesus as the divine son of God the Father. It derives from several uses in the New Testament and early Christian theology.
