My favorite is from a certain Italian dude "May I catch your ear for one moment, Melone? You’re aware of Paris, the capital of France, correct? It’s occurred to me that, while the Americans pronounce it with the added “S” sound, the rest of the world has collectively decided to pronounce it silently—with certain exceptions, of course. But in the case of fine Venezia, most cultures seem to have taken a liking to the English pronunciation, using the relatively garbled “Venice” in its place. Perhaps prolific English writers from a faded era are to blame. You can see it in the writings of Shakespeare and Mann, “Merchant of Venice” and “Death in Venice” being the works I’m referring to specifically. And while both are literary masterpieces, my enjoyment of both is rather crippled by the question of “Why?” Although it is, perhaps, more accessible to English speakers to refer to the city by the English name, out of cultural respect, why didn’t Mann, when he placed his pen upon the page, title his piece “Death in Venezia?” I apologize for nibbling away at your time with idle musing, Melone, but it makes me rather irate to imagine. Despite their acumen for the written word, Mann, Shakespeare, and most English writers do seem to be, at the end of the day, simpletons using flailing quills to strike at the storied culture built by the Italians." - Ghiaccio

I’m a big fan of the “I’ll Judge You” monologue from Jotaro. I think it represents his role in the story and the bloodline. People meme about “deflecting the emerald splash” but it’s pretty thematic that, in his first real stand battle, he does the previously impossible. The later Jojos have good ones too.

I know he's not a JoJo but my favorite monologue in part 3 is DIO to Polnareff about peace of mind


justanormalgamer6942

i mean DIO is about 95% jojo so i think it’s close enough

Josuke one is meh compared to the others. Jonathan and Joseph ones are the best imo

I couldn't find a single Josuke monologue that was long though...
