Yo, can we take a minute and talk about how Cinderella was a straight con-artist who played on women's insecurities and then used her stand to punish them when they failed to play to her fantasies? Because that was a thing. (Not that Yukako was innocent, but there's a difference between a teen doing something foolish and a grown adult getting paid.)

If I had to hazard a guess, I think she'd just do her job normally and the time limit was to make sure she had repeat business. I doubt the effects would've been as severe as Yukako's but that's what happens when you throw a business owner around her own shop like a lasso.

Question for my Jojo peeps-I'm about 3/4ths of the way done with a Yotsuyu Yagiyama costume, and I can't for the life of me find a good shot of the medallion on his little fannypack. It looks like it has kanji on it, but I can't quite see all of it. Any clue? Also there's 128 spikes on him, and he can't kneel down, if you were wondering.

Alternatively, I guess you could also use the design of his bag from chapter 26 where it just has an "H" on it.

The main villains in JoJo always have the coolest Stands don't they. The World, Killer Queen, and King Crimson are so cool. God I already can't wait for the anime to come back. It's just so cool!

Araki has yet to gently caress up making a JoJo's, or their bad guy'. Stand look cool as gently caress also I love that the Stand art books reveal that Araki based King Crimson off that dude with a head in his chest from Total Recall. Like Araki saw loving George and was like "lmao that guy was cool, i want him as the ground work for current villan's power design"

Also, are we still doing super reductive kludged together analyses of Jojo stuff? Because I got a real humdinger of one about SBR. Hoo boy, it's a hot one!

Where's the trick? 1) She can use her powers to change someone's face, but it doesn't do anything for their luck that can't be better attributed to simply being more confident. 2) She's explicitly selling her abilities to change peoples luck. 3) Her powers have no duration or drawback other than those she purposely imposes. 4) She intentionally withholds not only her ability to restore her clients to their natural state, but the fact that she even choose to do so. That's not reductive, that's what happens in the story.

Everything about Cinderella is fairy tale stuff, from the name itself, to the fairy godmother-style stand power with unnecessarily strict temporal restrictions, to the resolution to the story, which involves Yukako taking the first step toward having a little bit of chill and putting her trust in Koichi to make a good decision, without any magic, based on his sincere feelings. Sometimes I feel uncomfortable about poo poo in jojo but Cinderella barely registers in any way.Goldaline posted:I'm about 3/4ths of the way done with a Yotsuyu Yagiyama costume

The SBR universe doesn't have Requiem Stands, it has L'Internationale Stands that are granted when your stand is pierced by the 「Hammer and Sickle」.
