Because it's not a JoJo pose specifically? Or are you saying JoJo posing itself isn't JoJo-esque?

Why would it be? I wasn't even aware this was a thing people said, whatever "Jojo" is.

People seem to think if they draw a character 'posing' then it's Jojo-like because Jojo characters are known for 'posing.' This is not the case and so I will see a lot of fanart where people take a character or person and try to "Jojo-ify" them and they all look totally abysmal.

Okay, so a character in an exact JoJo pose is still acceptable, you're just talking about making someone stand weirdly in a generic sense?

The problem is not which pose

Then you've lost me. Someone drawing a character in a specific pose that is a direct reference to one of the more famous JoJo poses is plenty JoJo-esque. Hell... major franchises have done exactly this:

Your picture is a JoJo reference; it is not JoJo-esque. That's like saying referencing the gas station scene in No Country for Old Men is Coenesque. It isn't. It's just that, a reference.

Then you'll need to define what makes a still image "JoJo-esque" if copying exact moments from the manga don't count.

OK I guess thats pretty major lol

I'll be fair, that shot is from Persona Q so it isn't as recognizable as if it were from a main game.

EDIT: Although the great thing about that image is it references many different JoJo characters:

The bear doesnt look anything like Johnny's pose (it's literally standing up isn't it) and the referenced Gappy image isn't a pose at all, it's a huge stretch to connect them
