Are the poses that Miriam does while holding up JoJo poses?
When you hold up in the game she starts to pose. One of them looks like Dio's. I know that the game has a stone mask which is a reference to jojo and that sotn had one too.

Actually come to think of it those poses look more like the pillar men?

One of them reminds me of Bayonetta imo.

The first one is similar to Josuke's pose.

It's not Jojo and just because there's a stone mask in the freaking game doesn't mean it's related to Jojo.

Yes they are jojo poses. In fact castlevania have had jojo references for a LONG TIME. In Sotn you could find the stone mask and its description says "An ancient mask used in rituals". In Ario of sorrow one of the souls is basically a stand that says "ora ora ora ora" while punching the enemies.

You can also find the stone mask in this game too and the design is basically the same.

Shanoa does a pretty similar pose in OoE when acquiring glyphs.

Even though the Stone Masks were creations of the Pillar Men, it's interesting to note that the IGAvania stone mask generally (Not in every iteration, mind you) boosts LCK, and Dio was considered to have the Devil's Luck. A neat association that is probably worth mentioning.

Who knows honestly. I was surprised at how many things I loved had jojo references in them. Touhou, Castlevania , bunch of animes etc etc etc...

It has been around for a long time, and it's pretty popular, so it's not really a surprise it has inspired quite a few references. Aside from the Stone Mask, and the punch ghost soul in the Sorrow games, you've also got the Zephyr throwing knives, and stopping time in front of a clock tower, while shouting "Toki wo tomare"

Actually the whole stone mask thing is just a trope. We now call it the Mask of Power. It's a throwback to shamans and stuff. The Tiki men wore stone masks too.
