Holly was in basically the same position as young Josuke, and he ended up with a stand; do we have any reason to think she didn't? Anyway, whoever said part 7 was good was right, I've just got to the part where someone's stand power is creating a plague of were-dinosaurs.

Yeah it did, it made everyone tear each other limb from limb. It was very specific and didn't allow for teamwork. The ground had to be wet and stuff.

It specifically mentions it only blows pre-existing aggression way out of proportion, that's why the guards only start fighting when one of them genuinely irritates the other

I'd always assumed that it was Dio's influence that was triggering Holly and Jotaro's stands to activate and once his influence was removed Holly's went dormant again. Josuke would have been the same but he had the gumption to punch people who made fun of his hair so his stand actually developed.

IT seems like they took down the last two translated parts. I did noticed a few notes from the editor to the translator in the margins though. So it might just be down until they clean them up.

Well, he didn't have the pomp when he was developing his stand, because he had the fever from it when his car got stuck and the kindly Josukefromthefuturebutnot helped them and inspired the pomp. So he didn't have that particular complex yet, but the gumption was probably still there.

I'd like to think of Josuke and Polnareff as children full of gumption so I'm fine with being wrong about this.

That part of it was a deal where I juuuust about allowed myself a moment to wonder how the gently caress it worked and just shut myself down to move on. There are a couple Part 5 sections like that. "Wait a second, that's not how--- no, no, I'll just keep reading, gently caress it." David D. Davidson posted:IT seems like they took down the last two translated parts.

Yeah it looked like something slipped in on one page where they wanted to double check a translation (which I thought should have been pocket? Mista puts the ice in his pocket, right?), someone pointed it out on facebook to them and they said it wasn't intentional. Probably fixed soon enough When that whole fight is done w/ a better translation I'll have something to point at in a desperate attempt to silence pt 5 haters. Bruno loving wrecks it. Dzhay posted:

Yay! I like that they changed the Stand card font, it's much cleaner to me now. Though I noticed two typos on the stand card page for grateful dead that I'm terrified to point out to them because they already yanked it down to fix stuff :S Four is coming along at a good clip which is nice because it means Okuyasu can WRECK IT

Diego is the only cool Dio. The others are just rich idiots that craved even more power like the pigs they were. Diego pulled himself up by his bootstraps and became a champion. He's basically Speedwagon but not a huge coward.

Speedwagon always tried his best. He was a mere human surrounded by a bunch of vampires and dudes who could do breathing magic kung-fu, yet still did his best to support his friends and provide us with heartful narration of the events of a fight. Mata ne, Speedwagon-sama

Speedwagon's stand would just be a pair of binoculars so he can look at the action from further away

The binoculars would also indicate oil deposits and such that are nearby.

I finished part 4 and I was like "Yeah that was good" Then I read part 5 and I was like "eh that's a pretty weak ending and I think Giorno did less than literally everyone PS Sex Pistols rules" Then I read part 6 and was like "yeah this is fuckin swe wait what the poo poo that's how this ends are you serious this was retarded and DIO is the best ever apparently" Then I finished part 7 and I was all hyped again until the last 5 chapters where it was I, DIO, all along. Again. Za Warudo. God bless America.
