Is Gladion a JoJo reference?

I'm actually serious. His random dramatic posing screams JoJo and his battle theme sounds like a JoJo opening. I would be surprised if this wasn't on purpose.

Yes. Literally everything is a Jojo reference if you believe it is.

Jojo reference is such a fucking shit meme. Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is one of the best animes I've ever seen and "Jojofags" have never ruined any threads. Stop trying to force your shit.

>>31263829
This. Although I admit that those fucking maymay introduced me to JoJo.
>>
>>31263829
It's Jojo fans fault that the meme started, the vast majority of the people didn't even know what Jojo was until people started making ridiculous connections to it.

Okay, explain what it is, then.

Kid phase of thinking you've got super crazy/edgy demon eye power bullshit, lead some "badass" stoic loner lifestyle, or something like it.
>>
>>31263829
>I've watched 20 anime
>>
>>31264229
And Gladion shows none of that? He just strikes poses and acts serious. He doesn't have think he's got super crazy/edgy demon eye power bullshit. He's one of the more realistic characters in Pokemon.
What I'm getting at here is that he's just an edgy kid who does JoJo poses. There's no chuunibyou involved here.
>>
>>31264241

>he actually watched more than 10/20 anime

Anon has autism.
>>
>>31264248
Seemed like a pretty wannabe edgy loner up until the E4 to me.
He's probably one of my favorite rivals for being Silver done better, but don't act like you can't see the chunni in there.
>>
>>31263884
>implying they weren't falseflaggers
>>
>>31264279
No, I can't. I do see an edgy teenager, but no chuuni in there. Again, give me one thing he says that has any hints of chuuni in there.
>>
>>31264289
Chunni is pretty much "edgy teen" wrapped in one word, but;

The mentions of "self preservation" when you're introducing yourself
Constantly talking about getting stronger with Null and how it has to be the two of them against the world, being under Team Skull, being slightly angsty and distant but doing it for lillie are all classic dark hero characteristics that "edgy teens," "chunni" whatever you want to call it love to adopt. The poses can double as both specific references and shit he does that he thinks is cool because that's not entirely out the realm of possibility either. It's all in the behavior and mannerisms.
>>
>>31264289

>holds his arm in the classic, "THE SEALED POWER WITHIN ME WISHES TO ESCAPE" pose

>his fucking clothing

>no seriously look at him
>>
>>31264390
>"chunni" whatever you want to call it love to adopt
No, you are the one using it wrong. A word's meaning changes when the majority uses it in a different way.
Chuuni and edgy are two different things. Sasuke or Silver weren't chuuni because they wanted power, and popular chuuni characters like Rikka or Joseph aren't edgy just because they pose.

Learn to differentiate between two completely different words. It might not be a JoJo reference, and he just does random poses without any reason at all, but he's far from chuuni. Stop trying to bend the definition of the word to support your shitposts.
>>
>>31264068
This makes sense, there's at least one Gundam arcade game that was turned into a Star Wars one for international markets
>>
>>31264261
Fuck yeah, but i don't obsess over it or a single series for that matter because I'm not a sperglord.

What's with all these Jojo Falseflaggers on this board? No other board I've seen has as big of a problem with this.
>>
>>31264472
I'll admit I was wrong to try and merge two phrases from two different languages, but Gladion's mannerisms obviously take some inspiration from chuuni. He's still putting on the loner act when we know it's not really him, he's got obviously unnecessary "power overwhelming" arm posing shit going on, he acts as he knows best for his loved ones (right as he is in this case) and looks down on others not taking shit as seriously as he does in the beginning. It's pretty obvious he'll grow out of this and cool off as he gets older.
>>
>>31264623
>loner act
That's not really a chuunibyou trait though. Most chuunis I've seen try to find "comrades" really often. They just don't have many friends. And by episode 2, most of those chuunis make friends.

>he's got obviously unnecessary "power overwhelming" arm posing
And that's exactly why people are calling it a JoJo reference. A character with Dio in his name is doing Dio's pose for no apparent reason. It's probably not, but it's not off the hook completely either.

But they do, shitlord!

Pretending to be antisocial but caring about their true friends deep down is a common as fuck trait.

So is the arm thing, but I don't doubt it's just a multi layered reference though. If he posed with back facing you, yeah that would be no doubt about it, the DIO special.

I believe the word you're looking for is "asocial," unless Gladio was a sociopathic bully in the games. If he was, then I must've missed it.
>>
>>31263765

Nothing went wrong with him. He challenged your expectations of him and it turns out, YOUR expectations of him were wrong.
