Probably. Araki never really seems to draw the star birthmark on Kira though. The area is covered on the panel with his corpse, but his bubbles did have the star, at least on their introduction. In panels where you should really be able to see it, you can't though so he might not have one. Which makes me wonder if we're going to learn that Kyo is half related or something.

kira's sister explicitly shows him her birthmark so it's reasonable to assume kira has one. i figure it was implied since johnny is their great great grandfather. also josefumi definitely has a birthmark and it's entirely possible some other branch of the family exists

It doesn't but it doesn't matter for him. We're assured of his lineage elsewise. It's more important in SDC, VA and SO because it's used to identify significant individuals. It's important again in JJL, so it's interesting that Kira never seems to show as having one when he should even if it turns out to be a red herring. Of course, Araki straight forgets anyway at times.  From this month's. Josuke Higashikata fucked around with this message at 19:42 on Feb 28, 2016 |

I'm just thinking that this universe's Joseph Joestar still got a Japanese lady pregnant but this lady decided to name their child after the runaway father. I'm kinda wanting, but not really, to go deep and try to find if it's possible that Okuyasu's mother could be single in this universe and thus Josefumi would be a combination of sorts of Josuke and Okuyasu.

i guess there technically always is the chance that a plot point is that kira was adopted or some poo poo, but since araki plays fast and loose with the birthmark even now it's hard to tell.

You know, when Damo was introduced as gross fatty/miracle sex-man I wasn't sure what direction his character was going to take. Can't say I called "terrifying mafioso" though.

Amaryllis posted:This was always my assumption. e: Wait, no, that doesn't make a lot of sense, unless he married, had a family, divorced, and married and divorced Josefumi's mom, who's recently divorced in a flashback. I forgot about that. Or maybe he had a kid with her and that's what led to her divorce. If Josuke's pompadour and that stupid waffle shirt made it into this universe, I want to believe that his adulterous dad did too. I'm assuming the latter, yeah. The mom and Joseph had an affair, Joseph then went back to the U.S. to his family and the mom's husband found out at some point after Josefumi's birth and the divorce began.

i think he just kinda assumes that we know the two have the birthmark. josefumi's was more crucial to actually see since it establishes him as being connected. probably in some weird circumstances like josuke was, what with being a bastard child.

The last boss in a JoJos has to have some kind of space/time Stand so we haven't seen this one yet. Unless we find out that "making things soft" can also extend to space/time.

What kind of time things havent been done yet? Not saying he can't just reuse one or repurpose one but I'm not sure what other kinds of time stuff would be available. I guess maybe something related to time dilation, making events run at different speeds in relation to one another, or just flat out slowing things down, or making events play in the wrong order

Could have time effect specific areas / people. If you leave a designated area, you reset to the point in time where you entered it? I dunno there’s probably plenty of creative poo poo that can still be done.

Arguably the idea of making different things move at different times can do things like increase friction or the like; someone moving through time so fast because they've been dilated that they catch fire because of friction or the like. The ability to dilate someone's time could be used in a huge ability of powerful ways. I'm also reminded of the Roidmudes from Kamen Rider Drive; they slowed down everyone's body but not their minds, leading to normal people be unable to do anything because their minds and bodies were desynchronized.

Bad Seafood posted:So in other words a stand that can induce amnesia? At a basic level you could use it to give somebody amnesia, but you could also use it to change somebody's past entirely. It would be able retcon previous events so that they never happened or remove the victim from those events or even put the stand user in the victims shoes during those events. You could use to steal somebody's else's glory or hardships. It would be a soul crushing big bad stand because he could undo the personal growth that the protagonists have gone through.
