Keeping in line with the first rec post, this month's rec post is about the second part of the Joestar family saga.

Please remember to include the appropriate content warnings if necessary, and that any and all interpretations of "fanwork" are welcome.

Joseph Joestar, horse master and survival specialist by Herzspalter

I made such an ugly laugh cackle when I read this 😂 Joseph's face and Wham's reaction are everything.

Here's a lovely Lisa Lisa by hooray1989!

This fun piece by jojo_195cm of Joseph, Ceasar, and Suzi Q reminds me of a travel poster. The colors are so bright too! Perfect summer vibes for these three.

Lisa Lisa my queen!! Aaah she looks so good.

And I love the colors in the second fanart *__*

Almost all my recs are CaeJose related, because their relationship was easily my favorite part of Battle Tendency. So I'll lead with my two non-CaeJose recs:

• Lisa Lisa with child!Caesar and child!Joseph, by 99centthoughts
• gorgeous Joseph art for a zine with fun colors, by josukespimphand
• Caesar walking grumpily but cutely, by joyejoyu
• Joseph smiling by gunjooou

Moving onto CaeJose centric art:

• millionfish has made easily my single favorite CaeJose art, of Joseph carrying Caesar. She's also made one of Caesar carrying Joseph which I also adore. Somehow the vibes just make me go crazy!!!
• My general favorite CaeJose artist is my friend kuromegarin; she's still posting CaeJose and has literal years of top tier content including comics. She also runs (last I checked) a Caesar/Joseph shipping week!!
• I think this person is no longer active, but imymellow has tons of CaeJose art which I really like.
• Two works by gunjooou: one, two
• Sadly whoever made this deleted and I can't see their username anymore... but I really love this art of CaeJose kissing

For non-art:

• Pretty sure I've recced this before, but I once again have to plug my friend deeppainpizza's fic make sure that we're watertight. I still remember downloading it as a PDF and then just binge reading the whole thing on the train... I LOVE IT! She really captures the vibes that made me love the ship so much in the original, so I get to experience it all over again, but fresh thanks to the power of AUs. (It's a spy AU.) And of course there's the fanfic power of them Kissing and having emotional development. It's very slow burn, which I think suits them perfectly.
• catneylang made this amazing PV for the above fic, which besides being a great ad for it (or a great supplement if you already read it) is just great to watch on its own for the loving, very well executed art of the BT crew as spies.
• This is short and silly, but I still love this text post on Tumblr
• My friend hosekisama made this AMV for CaeJose to "Cool for the Summer"... best CaeJose AMV out there!!!!

I also have to plug my own Battle Tendency centric fanvids: this one is just a Battle Tendency summary, and this one is about Joseph (mostly but not entirely Battle Tendency).

So many great recs! *A* thank you so much for sharing!

I think the art by josukespimphand is probably my absolute favorite from the bunch.
