Joey's Special Experience, often shorted to Joey's or abbreviated as JSE, is a shounen manga written and illustrated by Hirohiko Archie that began publication in 2022 and is still ongoing. Joey's Special Experience is, naturally, the main topic of this wiki.

## Summary

The story in Joey's Special Experience is divided into multiple parts, each with varying themes and characters. Currently, there are three parts, with talks of a fourth part in development. These parts tell a different story, but they always have an element of humor and romance (which can sometimes get erotic at times). Many references to modern film, television, fashion, fine art, and popular music can be found throughout JSE.

The First Part of the story, YES, follows Joost Jodocus as he matures with and eventually fights against his adoptive brother, God. Though God is shown to be cruel towards Joost at times, wanting to psychologically stress them, God is shown to be a mega tsundere *crazily* in love with Joost, even admitting to want her beautiful ass. However, things get complicated when he eventually becomes possessed by Satan through the use of an Ice Mask, and moves to take over the EU. Joost is trained by Baroque Cepelis in the Sand Combat Technique, an ancient Tibetan martial art that involves the use of a mystical energy known as Bacon/Ham, which is the only way (aside from sunlight) to defeat vampires and their zombie minions.

Second Part: Modern Warfare, follows Joseph Joseph (aka Joker), Joost's grandson and the main heir of the House of Jodocus, trying to become the protagonist by regaining the legal ownership of Joost's patrimony after some unexpected relatives of him showed up to try to claim it first, leading to Joker going on a journey to fight (and flirt with) everyone he meets. Like his ancestor, Joker undergoes Bacon training (more specifically, in its Hormone-bending abilities) alongside his vengeful Italian husband Cesare "Dragon" Cepelis by the mysterious Professor Lisa Hammoni, and together, they try to protect the Red Stone, a sacred gem that is possessed by Satan and is sought by the Columnist sisters, who are trying to use it for a stronger Ice Mask ritual that would turn them into the perfect beings and the de facto protagonists of the series.

The third part, Star Wars, follows Jotara, Joseph Joseph's grandson and an insomniac high school student living in Japan with his mother, Holiday. Satan attempts to directly possess Jotara, which fails due to his disinterest in women. Joseph Joseph and his friend Avandole, a leader of a doomsday cult, inform Jotara that Satan has given their family cancer, and while most of them can handle it, Holiday cannot, so Joseph Joseph and Jotara must travel to Egypt to kill Satan, who is still in possession of God's body. Along the way, God sends his lustful harem after Jotara and his party, but luckily Jotara is not alone. He is joined by Crazy Cocaine, a strange and dangerous man who killed his father, and John Peter Pollenrib, a Polish man with a lot of family issues. Together, the group hopes to stop Satan once and for all.

How will this tragic romance full of divorce, drugs, and everyone simping for Joost play out? Just read the damn manga!
