And Jolyne's father never knew the Ripple, so her Stand's healing ability is literally just stitching the wound back together and letting it heal that way, which is a much more crude method than the previous two.

Foo Fighters was the actual healer for part 6 though

I was referring to Vanilla Ice because A) stand name gag and B) it's so loving surreal that one of the deadliest enemies in part 3 is named after such a goony fucker.

Vanilla Ice being the second in command of Dio's fabulous Stand army, so badass that DIO made him a true vampire, is indeed hilariously mismatched with who Vanilla Ice actually is. Dude probably couldn't handle a shot of whiskey, let alone a joint assault of Polnareff, Iggy, and Avdol.

The Weird Al thing is different from most of the music references in the series. It's referencing the actual musician and not naming an entirely separate character after him. You can't sue for a name drop since there's no basis for a brand confusion claim.

What are the odds it gets a budget even greater than SC?

Low, SC is the most iconic and popular part. If I had to guess, Part 4 will have an in-between budget, and Part 5 will have the same as SC, due it being the other super popular part.

Yeah, this is maybe the only name drop in JoJo that's actually less sketchy under US laws. I'd have to imagine it stays in.

VIZ already got Vanilla Ice's permission to use his name in the official release, but Crunchyroll will probably throw up a different name because they don't have time to double-check whether he's still cool with it or not.

Same deal with J. Geil.

They could have, y'know, already checked. It's not like they're getting blindsided by the fact that there's a JoJo character named Vanilla Ice.

This episode is brutal as all hell even through the censors. It might be a case here were censoring the violence is better because uncut version on the blu-ray is probably going super nasty.

There's only really one chapter's worth of content left for Pet Shop, so I'd be very surprised if we didn't end next week at least being introduced to D'Arby 2.

Or he really likes dogs and has evil things kill them as a sign of how bad they are. Anything goes with him.

I know dogs and birds don't speak the same language, but I'm curious as to who would voice Pet Shop if we could hear him think.

Iggy was probably not stabbed by the arrow, so it's quite possible it was just a normal Ice Falcon until DIO took it as a pet.

There are basically five ways of getting a Stand in the original universe:

1. The arrow
2. You're born with it
3. Being really awesome at something
4. JOESTAR BLOODLINE
5. Stand discs
