Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required (for those who struggle with captchas and stuff).
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.

That's about it!

f. Confessions thread
g. TMI thread

As far as Jojo goes, I always assumed that the common language the SC gang communicate in is English, as it's more likely that all of them speak it than Japanese/Arabic/French, and it's more likely to be understood in all the countries that they visit. In that specific case they deliberately misspelled names to fool Enyaba, who (though her ethnicity is unknown) could be presumed (by them) more able to read English than Japanese.

Some people tend to forget that Jotaro has an American mom, so English and Japanese were probably his first languages. Both.
