JoJo...
So you're JoJo?
Listen up, JoJo.
That Pillar Man, Santviento,
uses the mask to turn people into vampires.
Seems he makes them stronger so he can feed on them.
He's a grave threat! He must be destroyed!
Careful, JoJo!
Tag!
You were talking a minute ago, right?
Hello! How's it going?
Happy! Fun! Nice to meet you, man!
Okay, Mr. Santviento, together now!
Three, four!
Happy! Fun! Nice to meet you, man!
JoJo, this is no time to be fooling around!
JoJo, what in God's name are you doing?
Well, I thought he might be a nice guy.
I'm just testing him a bit.
I don't think it's right to assume the guy's a bad apple
before getting to know him.
Don't be an idiot!
Look around! He's murdered all my soldiers!
Shut up! You reap what you sow!
You were experimenting on him
and blasting him with machine guns, bonehead!
Besides, Speedwagon, I'm only here to
take you back to New York.
I have no reason to fight him.
Now, everyone! Happy! Fun! Nice to meet you, man!
What's his problem? It's like he's completely ignoring me.
Now I'm annoyed.
Okay then. I'll just stick my foot out and trip him!
What the hell just happened?
That was the strangest sensation.
This is new to me.
What is this tool?
He spoke! He does understand us!
Somehow he's mastered our language!
Amazing!
He took apart that gun like an expert clockmaker!
Soldiers take hours to master that in training!
His intelligence is incredible!
So bright.
I have never seen such light.
We weren't the ones doing the observing!
He was watching us!
Listen here, pal!
If you can understand our language, then how about responding?
Knock, knock!
Watch out, JoJo!
You irritate me, primitive.
What the...
Rib Blades Nickname: Ripping Ribs
Unique Feature: Multidirectional blade mobility
JoJo!
Sparks?
Who is this human?
My body didn't absorb his.
He was repelled.
His leg also appears fine.
I have never seen such a human.
Is he a unique specimen?
Are all humans now the same?
No. He is unique.
JoJo, it's horrible!
Uncle...
You bastard!
Let go of my uncle!
Now I'm ready to fight!
I'll have you mounted in a museum!
Humans have evolved... slightly.
Get ready for a deluge of Hamon!
My Hamon... the blood on the floor...
The Hamon isn't working!
It's like water off a raincoat.
Hamon's flowing toward the ground and reacting with the blood!
His skin is just like Straizo's scarf... it's an electrical ground!
My body is reacting with his.
My fist...
it's...
still there.
Just a little joke.
I bent my hand inward at the wrist just in the nick of time!
But I'm in a serious pickle. He's immune to Hamon!
What do I do?
No, he's not!
Hamon works! It's protecting you!
It keeps his body from eating you!
Fool! What do you do when you eat a poisonous pufferfish?
You kill it, then remove the toxin!
That's all the Hamon is to Santviento!
Dammit! What a perfect mess! I've got to think of something fast!
Or, at the very least, an escape plan!
Absolutely not! You mustn't allow Santviento to escape!
He's a threat to humankind!
Shut up! Quit spouting off as if you had nothing to do with this!
You think I need more pressure?
I'll sink this knife into you and send Hamon directly through it!
His skin is wrapping around it like rubber!
But can you dodge this?
If I can't get you through your skin, I'll send Hamon through your eye!
Finally a perfect plan!
What?
Even his eyes are like rubber!
No! JoJo, get out of there!
JoJo!
He won't be able to breathe after a hit like that!
Breathing... Energy from blood...
While unconscious, he's an ordinary human.
JoJo! Use your Hamon breathing!
Breathe, damn it!
Use your Hamon breathing!
JoJo!
We're through! We have no choice but to blow the building and ourselves up!
For the Fatherland!
For eternal glo...
Hold it, von Stroheim!
No need to panic!
I bet big.
Attacks from the outside are no good, so I'm going in!
I'll blast him with Hamon while he eats.
JoJo!
I was waiting for him to try this!
This is perfect!
Take this! Hamon!
I get it now.
After hiding inside that horrific body of his,
I figured out how he digests his victims.
His cells expel digestive fluid
to devour the cells of his prey.
That's why it looks as if he's merging and absorbing them.
I'm only safe because I sent Hamon into him as he tried to dissolve me.
But your Hamon was too weak!
It wasn't enough to destroy Santviento!
So you're trying to gather your body parts to rebuild, eh!
I learned from my battle with Straizo. I've come prepared!
Von Stroheim!
Pay attention!
Does sunlight hurt him, too?
Yes!
Joestar, it was written on the walls of the cave!
He is vulnerable to the sun!
He made the masks to conquer the sun!
What are you doing, Joestar?
That door leads outside!
I'll destroy you with sunlight!
He's running out of breath! He'll lose control of his Hamon!
He hasn't trained with it, so the battle has exhausted him!
Cease this foolishness, primitive!
JoJo, use your Hamon breathing!
Breathe? I've got nothing left!
Damn it!
I've had more than enough of you!
I'm going to drag you up these stairs
and burn you, you bastard, if it kills me!
What the...
Heavy... I feel so heavy.
What's happening?
Meat Invade Nickname: Fiendish Flesh
Pieces of his flesh, they're...
They're draining me!
You son of a...
Keep moving...
I never expected such a human to be born while I slumbered.
Leave the rest to me, Rudol von Stroheim!
It's just this door, right?
I can handle that!
Stroheim, you...
Pathetic insects!
Just a few centimeters more!
Your struggle is futile.
This is trouble.
Joestar, could you do me a favor?
What is it, dammit? I'm trying to think of a way out of this! Shut up!
Just listen!
You see those axes on the wall? Can you reach them?
Use one to chop off my leg!
What?
Use an axe to hack off my leg! Then I can reach the door!
But...
You're really asking me to do that?
Just do it! He's regenerating!
No! I'm not a doctor. Don't ask me to do that!
I'm a proud soldier of the German army!
I'm prepared to fulfill my duty at any cost!
I would proudly give a few legs for the sake of the Fatherland!
Do it now, Joestar!
I hear you!
If you want it gone that bad, I'll hack it off!
Cut it clean off!
I thought he was a coward,
but when the going gets tough, his bravery shines through.
We may subscribe to different beliefs, but I respect your courage, Stroheim!
Forgive me!
May the harshest sun bear down upon your soul!
Did we do it?
What?
He's wriggling through my wound to my insides!
Get out of there!
How could this be?
He burrowed into Stroheim... who can't use Hamon!
Santviento has taken over my body!
He's merciless!
What tenacity!
If he's sheltered within Stroheim, he's safe from the sun!
Such horror!
This is horrifying!
Do you know what frightens me, Joestar?
My leg doesn't hurt. It feels wonderful actually!
Stroheim!
Hold on!
You won't...
Joestar!
You've seen what Santviento, the ultimate being, can do.
There is no hope for me.
I'll use this to destroy both of us.
But I must tell you something before I die.
Nothing pains me more than to tell you this, Englishman.
We, the German army, did not awaken Santviento
simply for curiosity's sake.
What?
Why tell me this now?
Listen!
It is your destiny to hear this!
Besides Santviento, our army has uncovered
another Pillar Man in a certain underground area of Europe!
What?
Stroheim, what are you saying?
I'm saying that Santviento isn't alone.
The German army
is after the powers of these millennia-old Pillar Men.
Soon, they will awaken.
And sunlight alone will not be enough.
If we do not find another weapon, all humanity will be lost!
That is why we had to experiment on Santviento.
Events fifty years ago have destined you to fight the Pillar Men!
Joestar, your Hamon is too weak to overcome them!
Go to Rome! Someone awaits you there!
Speedwagon knows this person well!
He's controlling my body and trying to make me hide in the well!
But soon I'll blow my body open and give Santviento a shot of the sun!
Stroheim, you...
EXPLOSIVES
Human greatness is in proudly facing down one's fears.
Those are the words of Greek historian Plutarch.
Farewell...
you damned Englishman!
No! I have so many questions!
Damn that crazy soldier!
Trying to show off...
Santviento!
Get out of my way!
If you don't, only death awaits you, JoJo!
I must steady my breathing. Hamon breathing...
Move it! You were doomed from the start!
And now you'll say, Have you realized it yet, primitive!
Have you realized it yet, primitive!
It's high noon.
The sun is shining above and reflecting off the water below.
You'll be sizzling like a side of bacon and eggs in no time!
Should've thought before jumping into the well, bonehead!
I'm not letting you fall into the water!
The sun has saved me.
It's completely turned him into stone!
NEXT EPISODE
My grandfather died tragically.
Then you couldn't even beat a pigeon!
Bring out more UV lamps!
Awaken, my masters!
