Dragon's Dream makes sense it's just a really stupid ability and anyone coming at it from a mindset of "okay so how powerful is this stand and why would you want it" is gonna be lost.

it's literally just a fun representation of someone's mastery of something in life manifesting as a stand, kinda like tonio, except it's something inherently less immediately graspable to the average manga reader

just pretend they're fighting a martial arts expert who drinks his own pee every day. that's it

Considering its Florida and they're drinking their own piss they're probably a meth addict.

Hey, Cheap Trick is incredibly good in its use case of "potentially killing a shitload of people in a suicide attack." Imagine if you showed your back in a crowded place.

1. Italian mafias mainly smuggled Crack and Heroin AFAIK
2. How does drinking someone else's piss get them addicted to meth!?

Italian mafias in the jojoverse primarily smuggle the hottest and rarest fashion prototypes, which is why it was no problem for giorno to end their drug trade on the side and still get the loyalty of Diavolo's lieutenants

Why does everyone think I'm going to get in trouble?

I think a lot of people could benefit from having Hey Ya! propping them up and boosting their self esteem, I could never call it a useless stand.

Probably something about how Pucci is Italian so they excuse his skin color while Weather's mom is black and maybe not Italian (idk) and the KKK is all "1 drop rule" regardless of Weather's skin color.

Pucci is a tan Italian man with two Italian parents (him and the white girl that Weather was dating have the same two parents), while the KKK learn that his mother later married a black man which mistakenly leads them to believe that Weather is his biological son.

Hey Ya directly led Pocoloco to winning the Steel Ball Run. Seems pretty useful to me.

As for Survivor, the whole moral of that story is "even the stand that seems the weakest can become incredibly powerful if used in the right context".

I maintain Hey Ys being a confidence Stand was a retcon, it definitely knew things Pocoloco had no way of knowing like the animal skull behind the bushes
