Chapter 216. Gang-STAR
---
If we talk about before hearing this ED (ending theme song)…
For those rewatg the series, their biggest may have only been why DIO appeared.
But after listening to this ED, with its soothing rhythm, apanied by the ses showing Avdol and Iggy still alive, and finally the group photo of all of them together…
The audience was pletely immersed in the memories evoked by this ED.
At that moment…
What DIO?
What fated stairs?
What DIO, Polnareff, and the stairs?
...What nonsense is all that?
Nothing could stop them from wanting to rewind the episode to the moment the ED pyed during "Stardust Crusaders".
They would repeatedly, endlessly, listen to that ED millions of times!
Mista and the others were no exception.
Immersed in the ED, they stayed up all night, listening to it o, until the m. It wasn't until Abbacchio violently woke them up that they groggily began to snap out of it, still looking half-asleep.
After all, with Abbacchio and the others around, and knowing their journey would likely be safe, as mentioned before, they weren't too worried about danger.
Having this expectation in mind, it's uandable that they'd be emotionally shaken by the ED, leaving them in this state.
Even if something bad did happen, their instincts were still intact.
If they entered any danger, Mista would immediately snap out of it in a life-or-death situation.
So for now, let him get some rest.
Of course, this meant he didn't catch what their mission was.
Nor did he notice that their current path aligned perfectly with the route he had pnned for ambushing Pucci. They were headed straight freen Dolphin Studio.
So when Mista saw the entrance of Green Dolphin Studio, which he'd been thinking about non-stop since yesterday, and saw a familiar Mickey Mouse-like figure—looking as if it had been wronged, finally ging to its parent—hugging their boss, Giorno…
Mista felt like he still hadn't woken up.
Numbly following Bucciarati and the others, he walked into Green Dolphin Studio's waiting room without a sed thought.
He tinued watg as Cujoh Jolyne pulled Giorno aside, chatting and ughing together.
It was only then that he g his bruised arm, nudging Abbacchio beside him, and whispered, "Hey, Abbacchio. Did Giorno already know the president of Green Dolphin Studio?"
As for why he didn't ask Narancia, who had been watg the show with him earlier?
Well, Narancia had been watg it with him.
If Mista was like this…
Narancia would be even worse, right?
With a bnk, brain-fried expression, it was clear he wouldn't be able to answer anything.
"When we're outside, we should address him as BOSS," Abbacchio first corrected Mista's improper form of address before whispering back, "Yeah, I only retly heard about this from Bucciarati."
"Green Dolphin Studio and our [Passione] both teically belong to the SPW Foundation."
"And the reason BOSS came to Japan was to visit family…" Abbacchio g Cujoh Jolyne before turning baista, saying, "I recall Bucciarati mentioning all of this during our mission briefing this m."
"Mista, you zoned out again, didn't you?"
"Hehehe…"
Mista tried to ugh it off.
But it was clear that Abbacchio wasn't buying it.
He gave Mista a look that promised trouble ohey returned, effectively ending the versation.
If not for Mista admitting that he hadn't even uood the basic details of their mission…
Abbacchio wouldn't have even bothered with his questions.
Though Abbacchio briefly repeated the missioails Bucciarati had mentioned earlier, he then fell silent.
But Mista felt no satisfa or crity!
Giorno actually had ties to Green Dolphin Studio!?
Should he still go ahead with his pn to sabotage the studio, especially Pucci, that bastard!?
Guido Mista was now more fused than ever…
…
Meanwhile…
"Great, you finally came! Gang-STAR!"
In trast to Mista's fusion…
Cujoh Jolyne's mood was much more cheerful.
Though it seemed "Stardust Crusaders" was bound not to lose money…
Ae those people who always cim to hate tragedy…
The audieually became more enthusiastic when major characters were killed off!
Watg the steadily rising ratings, Jolyne had almost died of anger within the full-dive helmet yesterday!
Fortunately, there was still time.
She could use "Stardust Crusaders", a guaranteed hit, to recover her new hope—"JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable"!
Sihis audience loved tragedy so much, loved seeing major characters die…
Then the fourth part, "Diamond is Unbreakable", absolutely must not be a tragedy!
The main characters absolutely must not die!
Jolyted this point down with pen and paper.
She felt as though she was oep closer toal of losing money.
Only then did she feel slightly better.
But this improvement in her mood was far from actual joy!
What made Jolyhis way wasn't some sudden ability to read minds, making her happy about Mista's pns to sabotage Green Dolphin Studio.
Instead, during her stant self-refle over past failures, she couldn't help but scream out, "Is there really no actor in this industry with terrible ag skills?!"
And then, suddenly, inspiration struck her!
If the industry didn't have any actors with terrible ag skills…
Why not create one herself, or even a whole group of bad actors?!
Shocked by her own idea, Joly her sights on Giorno, who could teically be sidered her great-great-grandfather.
She began to act coy, "You have to help me this time, Gang-STAR!"
