So why is it that all the Jojos (or jojo bodies) get really similar Stands (The World, Star Platinum, Crazy Diamond, SF) that just punch each other a lot and Joseph gets lovely Vines

I mean there is but those are usually the shows that get censorship steam/shadows covering 90% of the screen.

There's a theory that Hermit Purple is the endpoint of Hamon seeing as how Jonathan and Joseph both have it. It's not a bad idea, seeing as how HP is basically infinite rope and is a perfect conduit for Hamon. Personally, I think it's more that Joseph is way less direct about fights than his descendants so he got a stand that enables his antics rather than channels his lackluster natural fighting prowess.

That's sort of what I was thinking, it does seem like a fusion of stands and Hamon. I'm guessing we're in for a LOT of oraora variants in the future, then

Dire is a powerful and honorable hamon warrior whose battle techniques combine attack and defense. Please be respectful to him.

The fact that Dire's dying line wasn't translated as "Every rose has its thorn" is a goddamn travesty.

Daxing Dan posted:Dire accomplished more with his life than Caesar. Joseph's fight with Wammu should have been set up so that halfway through he had to swallow his pride and take the antidote or he'd run out of time, instead of just beating Wammu anyway, so that Caesar's sacrifice actually meant something instead of being totally pointless. Joseph still gets to get every kill that actually matters, so you don't even have to change that much in the story, but both he and the reader know that he couldn't have done it without Caesar.

Also Dio should've yelled out "I've been kissed by a rose!!!" after he got the scratch as a shout out to the greatest musician of all time, Seal.

joseph was never the type to rapidly punch people so giving him a stand that did that would be wildly out of character. that's all there is to it

Joseph's always been more about outsmarting and outmaneuvering his opponents than besting them through feats of strength.

To be fair those are also tactics all the later JoJos use. They just use them with the specific end goal of punching them a lot, which Joseph never did.

Listen the only time Jotaro used dumb luck was when he punched open a gondola and it turned out his opponent was weak to water, otherwise he's a perfect human being.

joseph and polnareff defeated two of dio's closest stand users and had zero idea they were in any danger for the entirity of the events.

Enourmo posted:well then link me to Dark Crunchyroll with its Good Subtitles cause I dunno, I thought it said that. Oh well. I feel like their subtitles skip over some things, though. Like I definitely hear Dio saying "Dio" in his speeches but it doesn't show up in the subtitles. No "It was me, Dio!" lines or anything.
