Kinda makes sense that the power to make people lethally run into things is Paper Moon King running wild, I guess! But that still doesn't answer who our 89-year old doctor is; he/she could be disguised by Paper Moon King as well. And how is that person utilizing Tsurugi's power? And what does their OWN stand do, which we saw briefly?

Weird poo poo is going on.

$5 the 89 year-old Doctor is that the ex with the hair who just de-aged because he is a rock human.

Also he is the final boss.

It's specifically Jobin that was working with the rock humans, he was in contact with Poor Tom.

they specified antagonist, so i took that as anyone who has ever acted in opposition to the protagonists

they also didn't say "came back and continued to be a bad guy" which yeah is a much smaller list. i just went with "fought the good guys, and remained a part of the story' which is also small cause people die a lot in this series

The true effect of King Crimson is erasing memory of passages of the manga, leaving only the consequence of us complaining about things that did or didn't happen in it

Given that Doppio didnt know his Diavolo personality was there when he was around, its just now making sense to me why Diavolos soul switch can just hide and take over. No idea why both didn't go in the same body, though.

Glad to see my boy Fugo still exists and thinks of his friend Narancia. :unsmith:

Sad to see they added him sulking alone at a nondescript alley because I don't think GHGR allows for him to be doing that at this point in the story so we're probably not getting it animated. :smith:

it would take way more effort to animate a light novel from scratch with no panel refs to work off of than it does to animate manga

Augus posted:

that this happens instead of a proper fight with Diavolo.

I actually feel like the Requiem fight IS the confrontation with Diavolo, or at least that's what it develops into around halfway through. I'll admit that fighting over who gets to use the arrow is a bit different from a typical stand battle, but I don't think that would have made much sense anyway, seeing as we already had multiple fights and conversations up to this point to rub in the fact that Diavolo and King Crimson simply can't be killed conventionally. Having a regular battle with Diavolo would fly in the face all of that, and also invalidate the purpose of the arrow in the first place, when it was presented as the only way to defeat Diavolo. Well, rewriting Diavolo's entire role in the story might not entirely be a bad thing, either.

I, for one, can't wait for Diavolo to be sent to the Shadow Realm or wherever the gently caress he goes. That's gonna be a surreal sequence.

If you must blink, do it now.
In every episode to follow in every future season there will always be a background blink-and-you-miss-it Easter egg cameo of Diavolo getting killed somehow.
