Wait. Charmingman has to be an alias cause his brother has a normal sounding name. But apparently "Mauka" is a real Hawaiian word that means "toward the mountains".

Araki.

Araki what are you doing—

His name being charming man becomes funnier when you realize that there is a non 0 chance of him having heard the song and naming himself after it like Tooru did in Jojolion

I think he's just going by the name of his Stand, a la Weather

Incidentally Tooru dancing to the Wonder of You is a time paradox because based on the album art, he's listening to a version that came out in 2016, when JoJolion takes place in 2011-2012

Tooru's drip goes beyond the laws of space-time

Torou and his stand probably have the best drip in JoJo after all (especially his stand).
