Illustration of Usagi Alohaoe from The Jojolands, smiling while doing the victory pose with his two hands over his head. His clothes used the colors of the bisexual flag.

"When I was 14, I... had a crush on a guy friend from another school... I mean, I like girls, too. But in the end everyone said no, and I ended up alone."
✨🩷💜💙✨
I want to see Usagi being happy and silly again 🥲 BTW I'm his mother from now on.

Gyro Zeppeli holding Johnny Joestar in their typical pose, both wearing maid outfits.

Everyone was drawing Johnny wearing a maid dress because his Japanese VA Shogo Sakata was wearing one, but I thought...

🎀✨ Why not both? ✨🎀

Two weeks for the anime premiere! YAY!!

First panel of two. Illustration of Gyro Zeppeli and Johnny Joestar from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run talking with each other. Gyro says: "I'm not saying I'd die for you..." Johnny replies: "Aw, you wouldn't?"

Second panel of two. Gyro answers: "I'd just kill everyone else first and then dramatically bleed out in your arms like a normal person" Johnny goes: "HUH?!" while the background shows a scene from the original manga where Gyro is indeed bleeding out in Johnny's arms.

First panel of three. Diego Brando appears pissed off, pointing with his finger, gasping and saying: "What's going on?! And I want a non-gay explanation."

Second panel of three. Gyro and Johnny are on a bed, Gyro lying on top of Johnny, both panting, messy hair and clothes, with marks of kisses all over their faces, clearly hooking up. Gyro replies: "Uh, we're drunk..." and Johnny adds: "Really drunk."

Third panel of three. Diego sighs in relief with a hand over his chest, saying: "Oh, thank God."

"Hey, why is this door locked? 🤨"
"Oh no, it's Diego! 🫣"

New update! ✨

I had so much fun both writing and drawing this scene from chapter 5, lmao (even if I don't know how to draw cars properly 🥴)

#JJBA #SteelBallRun #fanart #fanfic #AO3 #art #nikart

Gyro Zeppeli wearing a burgundy vest and pants, with a black necktie with burgundy flowers, and a black shirt rolled up his elbow. His hair is in a half-up style.

I intended to try that Frieren low angle perspective everyone is drawing, but I ended up practicing clothes using Gyro with the suit he's currently wearing in my novelist AU fanfic Side Notes (new chapter next week BTW!!) ✨👀

Gyro (Julius) from my Steel Ball Run Novelist AU "Side Notes", leaning against the kitchen island holding a glass of whiskey, looking stressed.

This is what stress and anxiety does to a rich boy who doesn't want to ruin his professional reputation😅

#JJBA #SteelBallRun #fanart #fanfic #AO3 #art #nikart

Gyro Zeppeli looking with suspicion, asking: "Um... whatcha got there?"

Johnny Joestar answers: "A coffee", while holding a cup of hot coffee, and Diego Brando is behind him, with an insane appearance.

This is exactly the beginning of the Scary Monsters arc, lmao.

Image consisting of three panels, with the "YES! I AM!!" scene between Polnareff and Avdol from Stardust Crusaders, but with Johnny Joestar and Steven Steel from Steel Ball Run instead.

I'm very late with this idea, and I'm sure someone did it before, but Kenta Miyake voicing both Avdol and Steel is the funniest shit ever.

#JJBA #fanart #SteelBallRun #JohnnyJoestar #StevenSteel #art #nikart

Gyro and Johnny from my AU fanfic "Side Notes". Gyro tells Johnny about himself, that he's from a big, wealthy family of Italians doctors. Johnny is shocked, connecting the dots and thinking Gyro belongs to the Mafia.

Cover of Steel Ball Run volume 11 showing Gyro Zeppeli.

I'm not good at imitating other art styles, but I did my best to adapt my favorite Araki's illustration ever to the SBR anime style, because I'm tired of everyone talking shit about the anime design of my best boy 💢

#JJBA #fanart #SteelBallRun #GyroZeppeli #jojo_anime #redraw #art #nikart

Scene from my Steel Ball Run Novelist AU fanfic "Side Notes", where Johnny and Julius (Gyro) are in a meeting. Gyro looks nervous and shocked, and says: "W-why are Ash and Leo kissing? We didn't write any of that in the novel! Right? Right!?". Johnny is next to him, just crying from laughing.

Gyro Zeppeli and Johnny Joestar from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run. Gyro is smiling widely, wearing a t-shirt that says with big letters "Hi, I'm stuff". Johnny is sitting next to him, covering his face with his hands, extremely embarrassed.

Joke old as hell, but the buckle on Gyro's belt makes it funnier 🫣

Night scene. Anasui, Jotaro and Ermes are standing in the foreground, while Jolyne is in the background, with her back turned. Anasui speaks to Jotaro: "Mr. Kujo, may you please give me your blessing to marry Jolyne? I love her so much...". Jotaro replies with disapproval: "Good grief... Stop talking nonsense. I've just met you! I don't know if you are good enough for my daughter."

Then, Ermes turns to Jotaro, and asks: "What about me? Could I marry her, Mr. Kujo?". Jotaro replies with a smile on his face: "Of course! I'd be very delighted! Even though her mother and I are divorced, we'll support the both of you in everything you need". Jolyne is still in the background, but she has turned around, looking thoughful. On the other hand, Anasui looks at Jotaro and Ermes, really pissed off.

Don't get mad, but I think Jotaro prefers someone else... 😬

Here's a new chapter of my Steel Ball Run Novelist AU! 🫶
2nd chapter: archiveofourown.org/works/669130...

#JJBA #fanart #fanfic #AlternateUniverse #SteelBallRun #JohnnyJoestar #GyroZeppeli #art #nikart

Scene with Giorno and Dio. Giorno is standing next to Dio, who has curlers in his hair, a face mask, and is filing his nails. Giorno asks: "Papa, can I...?". Dio interrupts him: "Shhh, not now, dear. Go ask your father. Papa is busy doing his beauty routine".

Next scene, Giorno appears with Jonathan. Jonathan looks huge and angry, taking almost all the scene. He's scolding Giorno, who looks small and worried. Behind Jonathan is some text that is partially hidden. The full text, including the hidden parts, says: "Absolutely not!!! Listen here, young man! I can not believe you thought it was a good idea. You need to understand that choices have consequences, and this is not just about what you want. It is about doing the right thing!!". And at the end, it continues with a lot of blah blah blah.

Giorno appears with Dio again, saying: "In short, father said NO". Dio replies: "I'll give you my permission, then... to whatever it is".

There are two kinds of dads: the overprotective one, and the careless one. Giorno has both of them 😅
What do you think Giorno asked permission for? (Oct 2024)

First panel of two with Gyro and Johnny in chibi form. Gyro is holding a smartphone in his hand, and Johnny looks nervous and sweating. Gyro asks: "Do you want to explain the text you sent me last night?" Johnny answers: "It was autocorrect".

Second panel of two with Gyro and Johnny in chibi form. Gyro is reading the chat in the smartphone, Johnny looks more blushed and sweating more profusely than before. Gyro says: "Autocorrect wrote: 'You're so hot. Please step on me'?" Johnny replies: "YES".

Damn autocorrect, making Johnny look like a horny creep! 🙄

The first panel of three. Gyro Zeppeli from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run, looking a bit worried, says: "Johnny. Do you remember when we agreed we were better off as friends, right?"

The second panel of three. Johnny Joestar from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run is lying in bed, just underwear, looking up, and answering: "No, I absolutely do not".

The third panel of three. Back to Gyro, he's now in the process of taking off his clothes, a bit annoyed, saying: "Fuck... me neither".

Araki told me (in a dream) that this scene was intended to happen in that chapter from the manga where Johnny talks about how good Gyro's coffee is for an entire page ☕💕

Digital illustration of Gyro Zeppeli and Johnny Joestar from Jojo's Bizarre Adventures: Steel Ball Run. Gyro and Johnny are posing for a selfie at the beach, both of them drinking a boba tea and wearing sunglasses. Gyro wears his typical hat and a white t-shirt. Johnny wears a blue cap with white stars backwards and a reddish top tank.

Draw this again! Nika the Siren. Comparison between an illustration from 2020, another illustration from 2023, and another one from 2025. Both first illustrations show Gyro Zeppeli from Jojo's Bizarre Adventures: Steel Ball Run at the beach, drinking a boba tea, wearing his typical hat, a pair of polarized pilot sunglasses, and swimwear. He's also wearing a white t-shirt showing Garfield with a cowboy hat, and the text "When I die I may not go to heaven, I don't know if they let cowboys in". The illustration from 2025 shows Gyro with Johnny posing for a selfie at the beach, both of them drinking a boba tea and wearing sunglasses. Gyro wears the same attire, but the print of the t-shirt is not showing. Johnny wears a blue cap with white stars backwards and a reddish top tank.

Sometimes I like to revisit my old art and draw it again to see how I've improved over the years. This hot weather is the best time to redo this one! ☀️🧋
The first version looks so damn ugly now, lol.

First slide of two. Jonathan Joestar is hugging fondly Haruno Shiobana (Giorno Giovanna's original identity). Dio appears next to them, obviously annoyed. Jonathan says: "I'll miss you, Haruno... Have fun with papa Dio and listen to him, okay?". Haruno responds: "It's just a week, father, I'll be back soon!". Dio adds angrily: "Don't cling so much to the boy, Jojo!" He mutters: "Ugh, it's so f***ing icky..." and proceed in a normal tone again: "We're going to be stuck in traffic if you go on like this".

Second slide of two. This scene happens a week after the first one. Dio appears with Giorno, who is already with his usual hair and wearing his usual clothes from Golden Wind. They both greet Jonathan. Dio says: "Hey Jojo! Here we are! I brought you the boy back. Look how gorgeous our son is now". Giorno, with his left hand raised, starts to speak: "Good to see you, father! I had a great week! Papa let me drove his car, and I accidentally ran over someone and killed them... But don't worry! Papa took care of it. And so now, my name's Giorno, and I'm Italian". Jonathan appears in a corner, shocked and pale, with the text: *internally and externally screaming*.

The prequel of Golden Wind, but Haruno... I mean, Giorno, has two dads (divorced, with shared custody).
This is my headcanon explanation about Giorno's transition 🏳️‍⚧️ (from Nov 2023)

Illustration of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run. In the scene appears Gyro Zeppeli, Johnny Joestar and Ringo Roadagain. Johnny is lying on the floor, bleeding with some gunshots in his head, but he's drawn in a cartoonish way, like Gyro, who is at his side, angrily screaming his name. Ringo is looking at Gyro, saying: "Cool, I broke his brain".

Let me tell you something, a time controlling stand user is no joke ⌚

Last year, I came up with the idea of drawing each month a redraw of a scene of every part of Jojo's. This was the final result! ☺️
