Today I will go on an autism ramble about the colour palettes in jojo.
Okay so idk how many people have picked up on this but the colour palettes in each part match the personality of the jojo!!
In part 1, the colours are deeper, darker. Navy and royal blues, mahogany, merlot, sangria, wine reds, rasin, eggplant and mulberry purples, Russian violet, etc. These are all colours associated with nobility, royalty, courage, wisdom, dignity, devotion and pride, matching Jonathan’s personality and true gentlemanly heart.
In part 2, there are still deeper colours but it’s also flashier. More vibrant. Shiny, even. Joseph still has a noble heart, he still has intentions to protect and honour, but he is also more flamboyant, humorous. He has that playful side that Jonathan didn’t truly get to tap into as he grew.
In part 3, tones become more dull and muted, with mustard yellows, sage greens, heather purples and so on. We all know Jotaro has a more stoic, quiet, muted personality. He’s rougher around the edges, but the colours of SPlat, a literal manifestation of his soul, being a bit deeper, purples and reds and golds, the colours of Jonathan’s nobility, show his true colours. He is courageous and noble, aiming to protect, just like his grandfather and great-great-grandfather before him.
In part 4, the colours are brighter, there’s more saturation and life to them. Josuke has a brighter personality, more childish and playful. He’s cheery! His surroundings reflect that, he always has a positive outlook. But there is more noble, dark colours in there.
(Do you get where I’m going with this? Each part still includes some colours from part 1. Each jojo has a good, noble heart.)
If I ramble about each part I’ll be here all day, but let me know if you want me to talk about the rest of the *animated* parts!!!!!
