That's more or less how I've always interpreted Rohan's powers. He's a natural born stand user, though I don't necessarily think it came about due to his desire to write the best manga.

I thought Rohan was a natural stand user, but he mentions getting shot by the arrow when he first appears, right? Edit: Just checked the chapter he first uses it in and he doesn't. My bad. Hitlersaurus Christ fucked around with this message at 11:15 on Aug 23, 2015 |

Though he does say his stand doesn't work on himself, but uses it on himself, so whatevs it's rohan he does what he wants you can't stop him

Out of all the Jojos so far, possibly excepting Jolyne, Josefumi has been by far the most martially competent

Love Love Deluxe, huh? This is the first time a stand name has been (mostly) reused isn't it? Makes sense though given its hair-related powers. Guess that Karera was aYukako reference rather than a Kars reference.

I like how Gappy does "Nuts and Bolts Stand" better than Joshuu too now. Fist fighting Gappy is great, Soft & Wet is great. Karera is great. Yasuho sitting around wondering where Josuke is is beyond great. God, I love JoJolion.

FirstAidKite posted:Huh, didn't expect the fight to end that quickly Yeah, we only just found out what the ball does, and now the user is gone. Araki is really burning through bad guys FAST in jojolion. I wonder if maybe he got tired of sitting on the same bad guy for half a year? I hope this doesn't negatively effect the pacing when reading Part 8 through once it's finished, don't want fight fatigue to set in - although we do get enough of Gappy being a weirdo that I don't think it'll have that problem.

i wonder if kira or josefumi had the mad fighting skills, because there's no way that josuke magically developed those out of nowhere.

I'm almost wondering if rock humans have some way of reviving, and we'll be seeing all these enemies again? The twins' powers were really cool and had some creative potential, seems like a shame to murder them off so fast.

One of 'em could move and manipulate matter from his left hand to his right via his body. The other ball had a soccer ball full of poison gas. I don't mind the fight getting cut short, comparatively, as the pacing of big chapter fights tends to be much better than of a string of short chapter fights. The two of 'em had abilities that were cool but they didn't really sync super well or use that to their advantage. Jojo and Karera, on the other hand, won out by forming the classic combination of bubbles and hair. So I felt the fight was more about what the protagonists were capable of and how rock people don't really get how humans click. It was an extension of the National Geographic special that started the chapter.

Really, the most important thing this arc was introducing Karera, and that fight was just secondary.

Erg posted:I don't think I really got what their power was. Transferring objects through their body? Thing 1 could transfer anything he touched with his left hand out to his right. He also seemed to have some amount of control over it, like how he wrapped up Josuke with the steel wire. Thing 2's stand seemed to just be a ball with poison gas in it which is a little boring. But it's JoJo, Araki could get creative with it burning through things or hiding in various places or whatever, since it seemed the rock guy had a decent amount of control over it.

Ball stand is basically Purple Haze - Balanced version. It's a shame he came up against Soft & Wet - Overpowered version.

Wow. Cool fight. I guess it's a good thing we're going through antagonists so fast, but I'm wondering if some of them won't come back in some way... We do have a Jesus tree around somewhere, no? After all, we still don't have a clear big bad, and every openly antagonistic character died soon afterwards. That architect dude seemed fairly important. But I think its very cool how so many characters have ambiguous motives! Pretty much anyone besides the two main characters could turn into a villain later on. (I hope half of them do)

TheLovablePlutonis posted:I thought of Miura lol More than just being defeated suddenly, I feel like we didn't learn much about the twins - which is a little funny considering their arc gave us the single largest dose of information on their species thus far. Also, it was mentioned that sometimes rock people fall in love with regular people, but most (like 99.9%) of the time it never works out. Could the Higashikata family's curse be due to a rare instance of such a relationship coming to fruition? Bad Seafood fucked around with this message at 19:17 on Aug 25, 2015 |

I think Josefumi was a Rock Human, and the reason Josuke likes sleeping under mattresses is because half of his body associates sleeping with being compressed in a rock cocoon. And if this is true then it's pretty impressive that Araki already had all this in mind since chapter 2, considering how he's never felt like a massively "plot stuff out ahead of time" style writer.

Even if he didn't have anything but general plot points planned for 1-6, it felt like that changed with part 7. He set up a lot of central mysteries early that got resolved later on. Maybe since he has more time to work on each chapter he has time to do pre-production and can work on stuff further in advance.

i wouldn't be surprised if josefumi ended up being a rock person. would also make his relationship with karera make more sense, since she very much wants to get with him and josefumi has already been established as going 'haha, nah'. the note about how human/rock human couples tend to end up messy seems fishy, and it would make sense if josefumi wants to avoid any situation like that. of course, this is pretty baseless at the moment. gappy wanting to sleep under the mattress could very well be some weird poo poo kira liked doing, and it's definitely been established that even alternate universe, not exactly evil kira is still goddamn weird.
