Lore
Background
“What ripples did it cause”
Created for the 2018 JoJo exhibition, JoJosapiens turns survey answers into the Ultimate JoJo Human, who becomes its user. It has no assigned part or rarity tier, and no element beyond PHYSICAL.
Core mechanics
Starting form
JoJosapiens begins unformed: 15% more incoming damage until you take human form, and death returns you to that form. The Stand’s pose is a work in progress.
Data and Survey Upgrades
Data is the progression currency of this kit. Earn 2 Data per right answer or 1 Data per full combo against the same enemy once every 8 seconds, excluding allies, your summons and practice targets. Keep data when dismissing your Stand, but lose it on death or a Stand change.
Every 3 Data grants one of fourteen upgrade picks from three options, strengthening repeated choices, with details on hover under the meter and any unchosen picks randomized upon becoming Ultimate JoJo. You can have up to 14 upgrades.
The fourteen upgrades:
- Clean Copy — take 10% less damage while manifested.
- Second Draft — Imperfect JoJo drains EX 30% slower.
- Open Book I / II / III — Final Answer shows you anyone it hits, through walls, for 3, 6 or 10 seconds.
- Bizarre Strength I / II / III — Final Answer knocks enemies back twice, 2.5 times or three times as far.
- Land Survey I / II — Final Answer punches the ground instead, sending out a shockwave 12 or 16 studs wide all around.
- Trick Question I / II — breaking a guard with Final Answer deals 6 more damage (the second rank has no listed effect).
- Flanking I / II / III — Final Answer sends JoJosapiens behind an enemy up to 24, 34 or 40 studs away before punching; the third rank adds 25% more damage.
- Cardboard Surveys I / II / III — every 4th, every other, then every Survey Rush sheet is cardboard and stops enemy projectiles it flies through.
- Sticky Notes I / II — Survey Rush hits make the target attack 15% slower for 3 seconds, or 25% slower for 4 seconds.
- Rush Order — move 8% faster while manifested.
- Blackout I / II / III — Final Answer blinds anyone it hits for 1, 1.6 or 2.4 seconds.
- Paper Cut I — Survey Rush’s last sheet makes its target bleed for 3 seconds.
- Carbon Paper I — each Loose Papers patch can trip 2 different enemies.
- Paper Planes I — no listed effect.
No awakening moves
Jojosapiens has no awakening moves and no EX bar costs; everything it has sits in the base kit above.

Unformed
Until taking human form, fight as JoJosapiens with your unsummonable unformed self behind you and 15% more incoming damage, returning to this form on death.

How to obtain
The two routes
Jojosapiens can be obtained from Space Oddity or by having 7500 sold accessories in the Catalog.
Space Oddity
Major Tom gives the Space Oddity quest, needs 45 Stands unlocked, and stands inside the Museum of Oahu behind a staircase. The steps, in order: get everyone in town to fill out the survey (0/16), bring the surveys back to Major Tom, take the survey papers to Darby Stand Storage, bring the survey chip to Major Tom, craft a Bizarre Arrow at a Workbench, bring the Bizarre Arrow to Major Tom, then take the chip from Major Tom.
Upon completion you get a Jojosapiens Stand Chip.
Catalog route
Selling 7500 accessories in the Catalog is the second route. How that count is tracked has no published explanation, so no mechanism is described here.
See the Stand arrows guide for the arrow tiers, crafting costs and reroll rules that the Space Oddity step uses.
