...man, Part 7 kinda blindsided me with the sudden inclusion of guns. We got some REALLY good fights out of it, even.

"sudden"?

E: oh you mean sudden inclusion in just part 7 don't you, and not all of jojo whoops

Pearl Jam is great, but it's got nothing on the Killer Queen and Stray Cat fight.

The Japanese do.

Which is probably why they're going to even do part 4, just so they can get to part 5. At least we'll finally get a good translation out of it if it happens.

Killer Queen and Stray Cat do not have delicious looking food.

Therefore they instantly are inferior

Pearl Jam is peak Part 4. Let's Go Eat Italian Food! I thought that Sex Pistols was gonna be Hol Horse 2.0, but it was cooler by having six little bullet gnomes.

Also Tubular Bells is fully crazy what is this

So according to JOJO A-GO!GO! the hermit purple stand Dio used was actually Jonathan's, so does that mean theoretically someone could take body parts of other stand users and end up with a bunch of different stands?

Probably
When RPS kid stole a portion of Heaven's Door he also gained control of parts of Rohan's body.
Jo2uke's stand is a fusion of the two people's his body is a fusion of.

Imagine Jonathan trying to use his Stand but he can't because there aren't any electronics invented yet.

He could at least smash urns full of ashes and make tracking maps? Man, Joseph and I guess by extension Jonathan got the really short end of the stick when it comes to their stands.

However, if they were at their prime fighting vampires with their Stands and Hamoan the Ripple would be OP.

my posts are as bad the Current Releases review of Gone Girl

Hermit purple is actually a pretty good stand if its backing up something like the Ripple, it would have made Jonathan a much more dangerous vampire hunter and I think Araki has even said that if Joseph had awakened his stand as a teen he would have loving obliterated the Pillar Men much more easily.

Would you be so kind as to change your wording or something so that our show only friends won't get the jist that Avdol dies first twice? Up to you.

Yeah, I can see Hermit Purple being the be-all end-all for Vampires and Pillar Men, but in the world of Stands, it's just not enough to compete and Joseph is really only relevant for battles of wit these days... not much has changed since he was 18-19 now that I think about it.

Well yeah. They all fought up close and none of them would even be able to see Hermit Purple.

hermit purple lets you know things

knowing things is the keystone of solving every jojo fight

the only reason joseph doesn't do stuff like use HP to learn what enemy stands do or to find kira is because that would be boring

People have basically known that for a long time, but there's never any photos/scans of where it's actually said to put it to bed once and for all. It's a debate that will never die until then. And hell, people will probably call mistranslation even then.

Hermit Purple is cool and all, but a more fitting stand would have been Gimme Three Steps, which augments his ability to run the hell away.

DIO telling Joseph his Stand is poo poo is kind of funny considering how much he says he respects Jonathan and how Jonathan has literally the same Stand.

I still think if Joseph got Hermit Purple in his prime it would basically develop into something like Stone Free but with thorns. Joseph deserves a punch ghost drat it!
