Presumably he'd be a prosecution attorney. Dio von Karma.

I'm sad there will never be an Ace Attorney game with Prosecutor Dio Brando objecting to things by screaming "WRYYYY".

BaDandy posted:My favorite "how I became DIO's minion" story is DIO just finding Anubis after breaking into a museum. I now have the mental image of Dio breaking into museums and randomly stabbing himself with artifacts in the hopes he'll get new powers

Bad Seafood posted:Sometimes I wonder what most of Dio's minions did before becoming Dio's minions. Steely Dan's introduction implies that selling kebabs is his regular job. The Darby brothers probably made money by gambling; I doubt they always played just to collect souls. A lot of the others have probably never really had non-criminal jobs; Gray Fly was a terrorist for hire even before he met Dio, while Hol Horse, Devo, Midler, and Rubber Soul were probably always assassins, and N'Doul mentions being a thief. Oingo and Boingo also strike me as having been petty criminals, and the way Nena played Hol Horse makes me think she was a confidence woman. The fake Captain Teneille must have had experience as an actual captain to pull off the impersonation. Mariah might have been an electrician. It's hard to imagine what the deal was with someone like Vanilla Ice, though.

Honestly, what does Vanilla Ice do when he's working for Dio, considering that Terrance is the "butler". (This is a rhetorical question, I think we already know the answer to this one, thanks)

He's a great collaborator. Dio likes to keep him around because he really knows how to listen.

He leaves a lot, but he always returns bringing some kind of new invention.

You know when he's gonna do it too. You can see it in his eyes. It's like something grabs a hold of him tightly.

On the downside, Dio's always having to get his doors and walls repaired. He's not made of money, Ice!

I can't tell if people are trying to purposefully spoil star platinum being able to stop time in the anime thread or if they're legit just jumping through hoops and coming to that conclusion naturally

Can't wait for people to react to Jotaro pulling one last bullshit trick out of his rear end.

Waffleman_ posted:Something I kinda like is how the first three Jojos actually had respectable careers aside from being punchguys. Like, Johnathan was an archaeologist, Joseph was a real estate tycoon, and Jotaro is a marine biologist. It makes them feel more like actual people than other shonen protagonists who are just all about punching mans. I assume Josuke followed the fellow good citizens of Morioh and opened something like a Repair store, antiques shop or health clinic. Something to provide remarkable service like Tonio and Cinderella (RIP).

If Josuke became a magic doctor, you know he'd have a cult around him whether he wanted one or not.

LORD OF BUTT posted:I totally would, rhetoric is important in the courtroom and he's pretty intelligent and competent on top of that. Yeah, there are a lot of moments of dialogue, like when he's talking to Polnareff on the stairs after trolling him, that make me go, "Oh....right, you were gonna be a lawyer." The peace of mind speech makes sense on a surface level if you're too distracted or intimidated to think about it for more than a minute.

So my girlfriend asked to read the first Jojonium on the train to work today and she texts me about a half hour into her ride "Yo Dio's such a dick!"

Pretty sure it was said that Crazy D can't heal diseases or anything caused by old age, basically he can "just" fix injuries (which is still pretty good).

Well considering he can also fuse dudes into a rock and change food into their base components I don't think Josuke really knows how much Crazy Diamond can do until he tries it.

IIRC, Crazy Diamond works by actually reverting something to a prior state, and it can only go back so far; probably more than an hour but less than a day. So it wouldn't help with diseases, unless it had a weirdly short eclipse phase.

It restored Fungami to how he was before his accident, which was definitely at least a few days before Josuke recruited him for the Enigma fight.

Remember when it turns manufactured products back into their components?

OK, yeah, it's totally longer than a day. I guess if the cancer or disease was caught early enough, he could heal it. I'm not insane to think it has an upper time limit though, right? I like to think Josuke got a job as a therapist, so he could finally learn how to 'fix' people's hearts.

It's kind of weird they always described Crazy Diamond's power as healing when it seemed more like FMA alchemy.

On the contrary, FMA alchemy is more like Crazy Diamond's power.
