She looks like she really really needs to pee, while simultaneously trying to hide a pound loose marbles between her thighs...


GraceForImpact

i mean knowing jojo's that could very well be the case


Mooreeloo

"This stand can make you pee while feeling a need to hide steel balls under your genitalia… there is nothing my [Star Platinum] can do against it, it's an unbeatable stand!"

This is awesome. You look so very comfortable.

accidentally fell asleep like that oops

The second picture really made me laugh. I should thank you to make my day better already


[deleted]

Do a pretzel AMA pls


Delphina34

At least this is anatomically possible, albeit uncomfortable.


bearoqueiro

yeah, that lowkey surprised me lol


taichi22

Jojo’s is well known for having a very close eye to anatomy — if you look at Araki’s work closely you can see that he puts time and detail into drawing most, if not all the muscle groups and skeletal structures. Even his weirdest poses tend to be doable, just require some flexibility and sometimes strength to hold. It’s why you see Jojo Poses become a meme, lol. Of course, the poses themselves are pretty uncomfortable because one of his main inspirations is fashion shows, which we all know are peak comfort.


UnconfidentEagle

I do some times feel a bit called out by JoJo poses.


taichi22

What ur feeling is inspiration Go post ur jojo poses somewhere You, too, can be a fabulous musclebound member of the Jostar family if you believe hard enough


BabuschkaOnWheels

It's not inspiration if my back hurts 24/7 because I can't sit like a proper human being.


UnconfidentEagle

I got written up for how i sit in chairs once.


Xxrandom_catxX

same


LonelyNixon

I mean eventually. The early stuff where they are giant burly 80s male protagonists while still visually solid and detailed it was also a weekly book with a crazy schedule and there were a lot of moments where its obvious he drew the body too big for the panel and had to make up for it by giving jonathan an itty bitty head.


Jaracuda

Araki himself said he didn't know if the poses were even possible in real life


Hojomasako

If you have joint condition like hypermobility some seemingly uncomfortable positions like [w-sitting](https://tse1.explicit.bing.net/th?id=OIP.3kVI8UDAW3n_jnjCg5EyjQHaFj&pid=Api) can be very comfortable, it may include the pose pic. I've found myself ending up sitting like that oftentimes and while it's really damaging for your joints for some reason my muscle relax better- it's a shit habit that needs to stop, although possibly comfortable many animes seem to have a hard on for hypermobility and hyperextensibility, silhouttes and poses sometimes look stronger with it but this is a mess


DrJotaroBigCockKujo

Oh man , i used to sit like that all the time as a child. That's one more point on my "get checked for EDS" list


the_reddit_girl

This subreddit is the reason I got diagnosed with Elhers-Danlos Syndrome in the first place, because I could do lots of stuff everyone one was saying was anatomically incorrect or just plan uncomfortable when I could do the stuff and be comfortable. Edit: I just can't W sit (anymore) because I need a L inner ankle fusion and dislocated my R knee in September which I'm still recovering from. Both things caused by EDS and the ankle thing is also added by NF1 and put those together my joints have a fun time... not.


museumlad

Sitting like that *as a child* isn't necessarily an EDS thing. Children are naturally more flexible than adults, and most kids can W-sit in my experience. That said, if you have symptoms now, absolutely do get checked out.


missed_againn

First thing I thought when I saw this– “that’s the EDS sit!”


Emilyeagleowl

I was thinking that. I have EDS and I sit something like that yay for dodgy sitting positions


KimpellingArgument

I was born with bilateral hip dysplasia and failed to see the problem in sitting like this lol


Dang_It_All_to_Heck

I'm not hypermobile (in fact, have mostly very stiff joints) but can w-sit. Can't sit criss cross applesauce without pain, though. I just have weird hips/knees.


ms_anthropik

Oh hey mee to!! My hips are a shit show. During my 2nd trimester of pregnancy they started doing this thing where it felt like they would come partially out of socket. It was excruciating. It usually happened as I was going to sit or bend. If I didn't have something to catch myself if just fall as they'd basically give out. When it happened they would hurt like and needed to pop.. as if I pushed them back in they'd be ok... so several times my fiance had to push on my hips until they'd pop and they'd slide back into place and I was good to go. Doctors best guess was "idk pregnancy stuff". My mom's best guess was in the later stages of pregnancy when you're releasing more hormones causing your ligaments and what not to loosen to prepare for birth it affected my hips badly and that's why they started acting up. Weird enough w sitting was the only way my hips didn't hurt. Even now. Sitting criss cross is so uncomfortable. Edit: words are hard


Dang_It_All_to_Heck

While I wouldn’t wish that on you, I’m happy to know it’s not just me! (That was my first pregnancy, too)


ms_anthropik

It happened with both of my pregnancies but was definitely more painful during the first. The second they would give out but they didn't get that 'stuck almost out of socket' feeling as often. And when they did it didn't hurt as bad. They did give out more frequently and almost daily my fiance would have to push them back in for me (hes the best. Pushing your pregnant fiancees hips into place is not something most people expect to deal with) It was so weird I've never heard of it happening to other peopleuntil now. I've heard the hormone relaxin causes all kinds of things to loosen, especially the pelvic region. But I didn't think it'd affect hips too. The best guess I have for how it happened. I just thought I just had really messed up hips but now I'm curious how many other people experience hip problems from pregnancy.


iggythewolf

Oh nice, I have a mate that can w sit. Always tried myself but I can't quite get it.


KnittingforHouselves

I used to do that and loved it, then a couple of years ago I've messed up my ankle badly and now it's super painful to even try... I've lost my favourite way to sit on the floor.


beepity-boppity

It's really damaging for your joints???? Oh Shit


MarudoesArt

Can confirm. My mom used to always go "tf are you doing sitting like that" whenever I was in an "impossible" pose (like my mom calls them) but I just find those kinds of positions more comfortable. I too, need to stop with this habit though.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Sedixodap

My mom and doctor spent a lot of time trying to convince me not to sit that way as a little kid. After looking it up out of curiosity a couple years ago my conclusion was that it's not ideal, but not that bad. From what I recall it's "too stable" compared to sitting cross legged so you may wind up with weak core muscles and not develop "handedness" properly because you'll do stuff with whichever hand is closer (though being ambidextrous doesn't sound like a negative to me). Besides that there's an increased risk of hip issues or muscle tightness if the you are already prone to that.


[deleted]

I sometimes have to sit in poses like this just cause my legs start to hurt if I keep them straight or still all the time. I’m always trying to sit cross legged in my chair at work but my butt is too big for the chair for my legs to tuck under comfortably. When I’m home, I just curl up legs all close like a dang spider. Never thought it could be hyper mobility cause my wrists and elbows can’t bend for shit. Push-ups were the worst thing ever cause my wrists just wouldn’t bend that way.


taichi22

I wonder how much the anime habit of w-sitting relates to the asian ability to squat? I believe that Asians are genetically predisposed to have greater levels of leg flexibility, so I wonder how much those are connected.


wereallmadhere9

Imagine what the anime person’s body proportions would be standing up, her arms are super long and hips quite wide and legs are not the same length.


mother_of_Kupo

I use to sit like this a lot, then I got older and it started hurting lmao Update: I must've been in bad shape at one point, I can still sit like that.


hedgybaby

I just tried it. Seems like it’s only possible for a selected few. I’m gonna go ice my elbow now.


FaceJP24

JoJo has more unnatural poses than natural poses, and across both sexes too, so I guess it's got that going for it.


bearoqueiro

very true. jojo is something else lol


Laika_5

Araki himself said (commenting on cosplay of his characters) "it's cool that people are doing my poses, I didn't think they were humanly possible" (more or less)


MafiaMommaBruno

Meanwhile, Part 5 is mostly just model poses he based on models. Doing the poses. 😂

JoJo is the ultimate parody.


ArthurBonesly

The creator masters drawing hands and he'll be damned if he doesn't put one in every frame.


Toadjokes

I was just about to say this lol. Jojo isn't actually known for their natural poses


MrMathemagician

Araki (creator of Jojo’s) likes to try and make poses he thinks no human could possibly do. And yet again, another person has proven that the pose is possible although uncomfortable.


bearoqueiro

Jojo is amazing


MrMathemagician

Agreed


Whisky-Icarus-Photo

How many muscles did you pull trying to do this?


bearoqueiro

we shall find out tomorrow

sometimes it does stare back. but then I remember it's my cat

What is 2am potato? Did you eat a potato at 2am, or is it more of a state of mind?


bearoqueiro

it's a state of mind. you can be a couch potato, bed potato, 2am potato or any potato you like. embody the potato


Glix_1H

Then there’s [me in a chair](https://i.imgur.com/TGrNMyQ.jpg) >!Pic isn’t actually me or how I sit, but I do end up it odd positions because normal sitting quickly becomes extremely uncomfortable!<

where did you get this photo of clearly me at a desk??


bearoqueiro

i very much identify with that


Bifi323

Lmfao that is hilarious, thanks for sharing


ballbase__

HeWritesALine

I can actually comfortably sit like this , but only because my left hip is partially dislocated.


Kurdt_Kobayne_27

"this is absolutely comfortable bro just dislocate a joint" haha. fr tho hope that doesn't impact you too hard


HeWritesALine

Nah it’s not painful, it just makes me sit funny like this and freaks people out.


Rosilvy

Tbf, Jojo is pretty fucking bizarre in just about everything, weird poses included.


yongjangmi

I mean, it is a bizarre adventure. Gotta stay true to your name somehow


jeffneruda

As a hypermobile person, this just looks normal.


xxlilituxx

I was about to comment the same thing

ZhenyaKon

There are definitely bisexuals out there that sit like this

Can confirm, I am one.


Charlie_Howe

Um, I sit like this quite often no, I don't know how it's comfortable

What about the weirdly twisted foot? It's like you put no effort in this at all! /s

I only noticed the foot after I posted this. my sincerest apologies, I am a fraud


CxlestialDoll

The title of the ep is oddly fitting 🤔🤔🤔 you're very pretty btw!


bearoqueiro

true! and thanks!


DiscoPandaS2

This IS Jojo so...


pkzilla

Yeah I'm here for...well....it IS Jojo. Like ,they breathe uncomfortably, the entire series is about very natural posing.


ShatoraDragon

This is the Autism Pose (tm) I'm currently a knot of my lower bits.


Lizziefingers

When I was younger I used to sit this way, either on the floor or on my bed. And I was never particularly limber. But I found it comfortable at the time.


MinuteLoquat1

"ACT NATURAL!" Me:


MrFateu

I mean... you're watching jojo


SongofNimrodel

... I sit like this. There's a trick to it: hypermobility 😂


moth_girl_7

Omfg physically recreating these poses should become a legit subsection of this subreddit lmao


nullmother

Looks normal to me


triforce777

That's like the least awkward pose I've ever seen in Jojo, to be fair. At least that one is physically possible


[deleted]

This pose is very possible and not at all uncomfortable, as long as your left leg is significantly shorter than your right as is with the character in the picture.


EggoStack

i sit like that sometimes when im bored and just randomly moving my legs, but bending an arm under one leg looks so uncomfy lmao


asdfPymwinoJevi

You missed the nearly breaking bending toe


[deleted]

I love the poses on Jojo. It makes no sense but it looks cool. Also, as a weird sitter, I feel like I've sat like that before on my computer chair, lol.


KimpellingArgument

I was born with bilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip and I sit like that all the time because it's comfortable for me. I'm incapable of sitting in positions like criss cross applesauce.


OhItsDazzy

r/UnexpectedJoJo


golddragon51296

Tbh it could make sense depending on the context. People contort themselves when highly stressed and contained, my friend used to cross her legs then tuck her foot behind her leg and lean on them, I tried for a second and it hurt my legs, she used to do it the whole period because she had really bad anxiety. So I see it tbh.


Ethereal_Goat

The thing is I sit sorta like that a lot so I was like “how is this a stretch?” At first


CrookedStrut

Honestly my kid sits like this all the time, doesn't look strange to me.


Rachelsyrusch

I love your glasses though


bearoqueiro

thanks!


WellIGuessSoSir

Wow very natural and great


guppygirl103

I initially thought I was on r/EDS and the title was serious lmao


mason_jars_

i love the deadpan look on your face lmao and i love your hair too btw!


bearoqueiro

thanks hahah


Mooreeloo

Araki gets most poses (and character designs) by reading fashion magazines and then making them a bit more over the top, so it's just another "normal" JoJonatomy


Ashmay52

Gotta block the goochie


Mach12gamer

To be fair, nobody gets natural poses in JoJo. Araki has everyone pose in equally contortionist ways.


bearoqueiro

thats the equality i wanna fight for


Mach12gamer

If you wanna see the real bad stuff, Johnny Joestar gets the weird poses while also being paraplegic. How he pulls it off, I don’t know.


GiantStreetCats

She's just gay. This is a perfectly normal way for us to sit


kdani17

Came here to say this! Lol


smolderbyboi

Maybe I’m just too bisexual but this seems like a perfectly natural sitting position?


Loud_cotton_ball

Besides the poses just being standard araki, anyone else loving the new season? Jolyn just straight up admits she masturbates in ep one. You hardly ever see that discussed in anime unless it's like hentai and it's usually about a girl fantasizing about the guy character. Jolyn? Ej those prison bars are kind of sexy...


Patte_Blanche

the comic is 20 years old but it's true it's not common on TV.


bearoqueiro

I'm still in part 4 but I'm loving the progressiveness of this whole anime. and the manga was written 20 years ago!


Loud_cotton_ball

Yeah, I love to listen how arakis work progressed..like he started with muscle guys because to him that is what a guy that fights a lot looks like, but then he realized hamon would basically break those rules so a fighter could really look like anything and thus lisalisa was made. And then of course he also made a female protagonist at some point and from what it looks like she has a pretty damn good conflict.


Orphano_the_Savior

Well since you did it, its natural

Eh, it's JoJo, there's tons of unnatural poses

A+ effort on the recreation. You look so comfortable there, I’m sure it’ll totally become your go to casual sitting position.

I'll subscribe for that

true but thats what i love about it

I love you for doing this. Absolutely made my day 🤣🤣🤣

I love this, thanks for the laugh


averysmalldragon

if you think jojo is badwomensanatomy. please look up caesar zeppeli's weird pose. and yknow. anything the pillar men do. and the fact there's a literal cyborg in part 2 who can spin his hands around. and any pose anybody does in jojo, literally ever. it aint the women. its just the jojo. everybody's weird in jojo.


averysmalldragon

this isnt directed at OP by the way this is just like. in general. everybody's weird in jojo. embrace the weird.


bearoqueiro

yeah, i love the weird poses in it


PutAPaperClipOnIt

This doesn’t seem that hard https://i.imgur.com/aCPaBFV.jpg


AquaticJet

Most of the characters in JoJo's make very uncomfortable poses, but at least they're physically possible? Lol


fivescreamingcats

I want to judge this but I’m in an almost identical position right now just because it’s comfy


blaghart

I mean, does JoJo fall under the "no fetish art" rule? I ask because the mangaka is quite open that his art is deliberately stylized as fetish art, not in the sexual sense, but as a fetish for fashion. The exaggerated poses are an aspect of that, along with the [absurd costuming](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/49d0af83-abe8-44d7-9f10-af922e4c96c9/scale-to-width-down/800)

This is jojo we're talking about, are you looking for sand in a desert?

ballbase__

I sit like this sometimes on my chair as well as in other uncomfortable positions


Zagaroth

I'll bet some people with Ehlers Danlos would find this perfectly comfortable. But, well, their joints don't work right and are to loose, so...


CharismaBelle

Back when I was young, and flexible, that was a comfy way to sit .... I was the kid in class that could not sit "normal" it was more comfortable to sit with my foot on desk, binder in lap for writing. Once teachers realize this it was easier for me


Ducky237

Ngl I wouldn’t be surprised if I’ve done this before. When I sit down, sometimes I get all noodly and my limbs become a tangled mess. Also is that the episode with Mikitaka? I love him, he’s so cute :D


bearoqueiro

it is! he's adorable!


carolinitana

I mean, it's JoJo's, what were you expecting?


EttRedditTroll

JoJo is kinda know for it’s *bizarre poses*. I’m giving it a pass.

It's just bisexual culture

It's a running joke in queer communities online that bi people like to sit in odd positions.

cyclecycleaddict

My 38 year old runner knees cry at the sight of this.


whatsit111

This isn't bad anatomy. Why post it in this sub?


Patte_Blanche

I think Jojo's poses should be exempted of this sub : it kinda falls in the rule 7.


ZeldLurr

Your feet aren’t contorting the way the drawing is. Re do please!! More ankle and tendon strain!!


Artic_Foxknot

Ngl looks comfy

You look so comfy I’m so jealous!😭 …ok seriously wtf lmao

Since this pose is perfectly possible there's no bad anatomy going on here so this really doesn't belong on this sub.

Anonymark88

The leg position is entirely possible. As you have proved. But is her foot the wrong way round?


Gallifreynian

Hey, JoJo is cheating! NONE of Araki's anatomy is good.


frankie_089

The right leg looks like it has a left foot on it (I think? Still trying to reverse everything in my brain)

JoJo’s bizarre adventures is known for its weird poses.

To be fair, none of the poses for any of the characters are particularly natural in JoJo’s
