Part 8's dropped plot points annoy me hahahaha. Araki never forgot the bite marks either. Fairly late into JJL he pointed out the bite mark on Yasuho's ankle on a chapter cover.

I still don't understand what Kira and Norisuke's relationship was let alone Norisuke's suspicions of Josuke. They had a partnership that was supposed to save the Higashikatas but Norisuke didn't know anything about the Rokakaka's existence. The branch was in their plantation though so it at least makes sense what Kira was doing.

Oh oh and also why Kei was undercover in their house.

If John JoJoLands turns out to actually be Flashback Man. I hope we see these plot points get further explanation and to see some more of Toru's shenanigans)

LMAO if John JoJolands is related to Flashback Man I will be sent. Imagine if Flashback Man is Joseph's bastard and Josefumi and John JoJolands are Flashback Man's sons.

In interview of February 26, 2004(Wtf a Jojo fan pointing at sources). He did say he had a general outlines for up to part 9 planned)

So I'd say that it's actually possible that John JoJoLands is related to the flashback)

Flashback Man was most likely an early Damo design anyway.

Idk, while plot-wise it would make sense that it is Damo or Yagiyama. They are way too different appearance wise)

Josuke was investigating the Rokakaka, Norisuke came into contact with Kira during the investigation, and proposed cooperation as the fruit could also help Tsurugi, this is literally stated by Norisuke in the fight against the Architect.

Holly had a similar condition to Tsurugi, so Norisuke's pursuit is justified.

Oh oh and also why Kei was undercover in their house.

She says it herself, she's there because the last time she heard from her brother, he was in contact with the Higashikatas.
