About
Rero Rero refers to a memorable scene in the popular long running Shōnen manga series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure wherein the character Kakyoin Noriaki is licking a cherry in an unusual manner. Rero Rero (レロレロ) is the sound effect Kakyoin makes as he rolls the cherry around with his tongue.[1]
Origin
The scene originated in the 137th chapter of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure titled Cannibalistic Temperance (Yellow Temperance (2) in the Bunkoban version) which was published in 1990. In the scene, antagonist Rubber Soul who was impersonating as Kakyoin attempted to kill main protagonist Jotaro Kujo by pushing him off a building. After failing to do so, Rubber Soul explained that he was just pretending and proceeded to lick a cherry in an unusual manner (shown below, left). Later in chapter 139, it is revealed that the real Kakyoin also eats his cherry in the same unusual manner, prompting Jotaro to be disgusted. The scene was later animated in the 9th episode of David Production's adaptation of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders which first aired on May 30th, 2014 (shown below, right).
Spread
The scene has become the subject of fanart and parodies on sites such as DeviantArt[5] and Pixiv.[6] On April 12th, 2009, DeviantArt user 0marchhare0 submitted his artwork titled "rerorero" depicting the memorable scene from the manga which gathered over 1.900 views, 96 favorites, and 15 comments as of June 6th, 2016.[2]

We live in a time when the phrase "ferociously licking a cherry" is applicable to our everyday lives. Anyone who says they were born in the wrong generation doesn't know this is a thing.
There is no conceivable way on Earth to read that line and NOT have sexual thoughts.

More Jojo is great in my books.
JJBA is a seinen series, not shonen, though.
Jojo became seinen during Part 7 so techinically it was shonen in parts 1-6.
Oh, ok then

I wonder how the English dub with handle this
Sadly, no Rero, just a direct translation to “Lick”. Still good IMO because they kept the original intent of the scene intact with the way he does it:
Okay, I know this looks weird, but unless you were there, you have no idea. I was just sitting on the train, minding my own business, when I hear "rero rero rero rero." I thought it was the battle cry of some new stand user that Dio sent to kill us.
