I Wrote This Creed on my Back so I’d Never Forget I’m Trying to Become a Vampire

ZOZOTOWN is releasing a two new JoJo shirts. The graphics are cute in how straightforward they are. It’s also fun that they list Jonathan and Dio’s lifespans below their names. It might be hard to see on those pictures, but if you look at the close up of the graphics (DioJonathan,) Dio’s is listed at 1867 – ∞.

Nice as the chance to walk around with burning, shonen spirit or Dio’s unrelentingly glorious visage on your chest, the real fun is on the back.

Really, I like the contrast. Jonathan’s is that nice, uplifting quote that I could see being a t-shirt slogan, but Dio’s is just, “Humans suck, so I’m going to become better than all of you could ever imagine.” It is as though he designed the shirt himself. I’m almost disappointed that it’s just Dio’s face and not that shot of him pulling the knife on Jonathan.

The shirts are both available through ZOZOTOWN in three sizes and three colors, black, gray, and white, for ¥5,040 ($49.24.) Jonathan’s shirt is here, Dio’s shirt is here. Walking around with “URRRRRRY” on your back is sure to grab some attention.
