Bayne’s Reviews > The Book: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure 4th Another Day > Status Update

I would say that the main archetypal symbol is the labyrinth. I believe this because the story is about a murder case and other mysteries in the city. This shows that it's labyrinth because they're trying to find the monster within. Also, many of the characters in this book are very uncertain, Chiho is uncertain about Takuma and Takuma is uncertain about the book that wont go away.

I would say the hero archetype is Rohan because he's investigating the murder case. The sidekick archetype is Koichi because he helps out Rohan with the case. The villain archetype is the murderer and the person who pushed the girl off the roof. The star-crossed lovers are Futaba and the strange boy because they love each other but they can't be together. Finally, the outcast is the strange boy that Futaba loves.

I would say the book's audience is adults. Although, the main characters are teenagers. The language is challenging and the topic is more focused on emotion. The story is about someone being pushed down two buildings, stuck there, and about people inspecting a murder case, related to the person who was thrown off that building. That is why I believe that this book's audience is adults.

One minor character is the main character's boyfriend. His purpose in the book is getting the main character in the situation she's in. This is because when she wants to meet him on the roof, someone strangles her and pushes her off the roof instead.
