Wall Eyes

The Wall Eyes (壁の目) are a geographic phenomenon featured in Part VIII: JoJolion.

They appeared the night after an earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011 shook Morioh; springing from the ground several hundred meters inland, around the town.

Characteristics
The nomenclature of the Wall Eyes was invented by schoolchildren, sticking then with the remainder of the townspeople.

The Wall Eyes stand at an average height of 1-3 meters and a width of 5-8 meters. The "eyes" are located on top of these large protuberances, at 15 meters from the ground. The Walls span across 10 km intervals, isolating Morioh from the outside. They prevent highways, waterways, power and gas lines from passing through their boundaries. They litter the coastline, all facing towards the sea, "as if waiting in silence to protect against some calamity from the ocean".

News reports focus on the disturbing nature of the Walls, offering no explanation to their origin or meaning. Researchers make reference to faultlines, but cannot relate them to any previous phenomena.

Effects
The Wall Eyes seem to induce Stand abilities in some of those near them. A Wall Eye fault was located at Ojirou Sasame's childhood home, and he later developed Fun, Fun, Fun; as a child, Daiya Higashikata fell into a fault where the Wall Eyes later formed, and though she became progressively blinder, she eventually gained a Stand. Josuke Higashikata, Joshu Higashikata, and Yasuho Hirose have all received deep, human-like bite marks on their bodies since being near the Wall Eyes, all three having eventually unlocked their Stands.
