i remember all of the good guys because Passione is full of cool guys

the panels of giorno saying "they'd find us if we stole a car, but if we stole a hundred cars, they'd have no idea" and bruno going into an airport terminal and asking "hi yes, we're here to steal an airplane, where are they parked?" are some of the best poo poo

Part 3 anime really turned me around on what I thought was a kinda boring and maybe a lil bit lame part, so I bet the anime is going to be very good

The only forgettable good guy is Giorno. And even that might just be because he's the protagonist and you expect more from him.

Bohemian Rhapsody is probably the most 'WTF am I reading" stand of all, but Heavy Weather is the stand with the simplest sounding power (weather control) with the weirdest results.

Tusk does some incredibly weird poo poo, but the Spin is moreso at the heart of that, so I don't know if it counts.

The One True Oden

I'm partial to Tubular Bells, the stand where you can not only inflate any metal as if it were rubber but can then shape it into a dog and set it to hunt someone based on smell.

It's a shame we didn't see more of that one. I wonder if other animals work too.

I assume any inflated metal balloons work, it's just that if your stand gives you balloons why wouldn't you learn to shape them into stuff.

If you ask me what Stand I'd want, it's easily Crazy Diamond. Best power, best design

If you ask me the coolest Stand, well I really like Weather Report (the Stand and the boy). Weather Report doesn't do a A LOT in Part 6, but anytime it does, it's doing the coolest poo poo on screen. Setting dudes on fire, making it rain frogs, make cloud suits. Araki made up for doing nothing with Stands like Magician's Red and Purple Haze by letting Weather Report do the dumbest poo poo. Then once Heavy Weather is out all bets are off. He can control the atmosphere, shoot lightning, he himself even implies he can create hurricanes and Donatello Versus even says Weather could destroy the Ozone Layer, it's a silly loving Stand that I understand if people feel it comes off stupid but it feels really grandiose and big, and adds a lot to the climatic feeling at the end of Part 6 when they finally leave the prison;

It's a little bit fanboyish, but I do think Weather Report is kinda the star character of Part 6, having the biggest relation to Pucci. A genuine alright dude with everything taken from him by the most bizarre of circumstances, leading to him being focused with revenge when he gets memory back that you can't really blame him for it, even though he is a total rear end in a top hat as he just kinda does what he wants around Florida. It's also really the only character death aside from F.F. that' allowed to settle in. Jolyne blames herself for it since she just crashes a car into the Weather/Pucci fight outta nowhere and then says poo poo like "I wanna talk to him on the breeze one more time" which actually doesn't make a lotta sense since I don't think Weather Report ever sees Jolyne again outside of fighting Jumping Jack Flash, but whatever, it's a cool scene

when i say online match making, i mean trying to join a match with someone who is on my friends list and yet somehow their copy of the game is not recognised by my copy of the game and invites did not work. I assumed that cutting out the local multiplayer at least meant the on-line multiplayer would be functional but ah! c'est la vie.

Yeah, it's annoying as hell that you can't play with someone who has, e.g., the disc version or the European digital version if you're a NA player. I managed to get into a lot of matches with different people a few days ago, but that was probably only because I was playing on a Saturday night less than a week after the game went on sale for the first time in this region. At least the story mode is a little better than All-Star Battle's was: I legit laughed out loud at some of the JJL stuff, but then it ended and I was back to rolling my eyes at that stupid purple DIO.
