What if you screamed ZA WARUDO with as much conviction and ecstasy and Dio and you actually stopped time? Something to think about ...

Hey Ya! has no magical ability, it can only talk. It is still the strongest stand because it uses its limited abilities exclusively to give emotional support to the user.

I mean Araki can say this, but in the manga it clearly knows things Pocolocco doesn't and provides some form of advantage beyond encouragement

Hey Ya! pretty clearly only has one actual power, which is knowledge of the surrounding area and the immediate future which it uses to provide encouragement to it's user. It doesn't "do" anything except encourage, but it's basically a short range omniscience which allow it's encouragement to be more effective. It literally only provides guidance/encouragement to the user, but it's guidance and encouragement is pretty much perfectly useful at all times.

We have to keep in mind that stand powers, in Jojo, are closely linked to the character who has them. If a character has a stand, that's the one that makes the most sense for them, with the exception of the no-name losers from early Part 3. Pocolocco has a subtle, yet incredibly powerful, possibly fate-altering stand that could potentially allow him to do anything, given enough time, precisely because he is a lazy piece of poo poo God drat I wish we had gotten a scene with him during the epilogue

since we’re on busted stands, has heaven’s door ever been shown to have any limits whatsoever (after the original appearance with the weird show-em-a-paper thing)? I haven’t read all the thus spake rohans so not sure if he ran into a situation where heavens door just flat out couldn’t help.

I know it's just one interpretation of many (admittedly a rather out there one) but it's still my headcanon.

I love how Jesus just cursed a fig tree because it just so happened to not have any fruit at the moment. It's so petty for someone like Jesus Christ to do.

JESUS: (close-up of face, with an expression of grim determination, and full, luscious lips a tiny bit open in that Gucci model way) JESUS: Forgive Them, for they do not know... JESUS: (crosses legs, appearing as if lazily louching on the cross, a 'fire of noble sacrifice' aflame in his eyes, his abs a perfectly angular array of shaded diamonds, golden ratio out of the whazoo) JESUS: What they DO-RA-RA-RA-RA-RA JESUS: (his stand 「Hard Rock Hallelujah」 forms from a halo and obliterates the cross in three two-page spreads) END-OF-CHAPTER ARAKI COMMENT: I like rabbits.
