JoJo: Ayanokoji's Crossroads

Summer, 1999. Morioh. A boy who had walked out of the "White Room" transfers to a high school in this town. He has been taught that emotions are unnecessary variables, and victory is everything. That is, until he is cornered in a narrow alley by the riverbank for the first time. At that moment, an existence belonging to him alone opens its eyes. It neither predicts the future nor rewrites reality. When he truly believes there is "no way out," it simply follows every path he can think of to its end, then breaks them one by one. In town, there's a boy with a pompadour, a pink humanoid standing behind him, a straight-talking friend whose right hand can erase space, a short kid who's always the first to step forward, and an oceanographer in a white coat who says nothing but looks utterly invincible. There's also an extra bowl of rice, and a "Call me when you get back." The enemies are hiding in town, and among the desks at school. A path being broken doesn't mean you were wrong. Morioh is only the beginning. After this come the Golden Wind of Naples, the Stone Ocean of Florida, and a cross-country horse race across America. Along the way, a boy who knows only how to calculate must learn what it means to be a "real person."
