EVIL Gibson posted:Every rating article of Stands should have Heaven's Door at the top. Like STRAAAIGHT on the top. It messes with skill, physics (sending Josuke backwards at 70 km/h with no outside force), and knowledge (like the italian) The problem is that it's incredibly short-ranged and has low base durability (Rohan can improve that, but needs a few seconds of prep time). There's enough ambush/long-ranged stands out there to push it down the power rankings quite a bit. Personally, I'd put Star Platinum above it - same short-ranged 'I Win' button, better ranged options thanks to its perfect aim, much better defences (particularly against sneak attacks), and stopping time has phenomenal utility.

The problem with Heaven's Door is that it is attached to Rohan. There's no way he did that for Koichi for free.

There's nothing better than the store brand stand names in the subtitle as the characters dramatically say their real names.Kuvo posted:is there a list someplace of the official english names for parts 5+? The wiki lists the english names in every stand's page, should it have a localized name already.

Heaven's Door is incredibly powerful but it's tied to an incredible eccentric who would hate using the godlike powers at his disposal like he could also it was loving badass when he wrote "I am going to Hell" on the stand on his back

I just realized the Insect motif on Giorno and Gold Experience's designs sorta ties into their character and powers: metamorphosis. Gold Experience is able to turn inanimate objects into living things, and Giorno went from a meek, abused child to a confident, ambitious grifter. Heck, its even a bit literal with the DIO blood turning his hair blonde. Also, is this the first time that stand users actually fight it out themselves instead of it being basically psychic pokemon?

Alessi and Anubis both involved themselves directly in combat, Anubis due to being a sword that needs a wielded and Alessi because Sethan’s more a support tool. But as far as punchghosts, yeah I think this is the first time the users directly fight each other.

I dont think Giorno even knows attacking a stand hurts the user too. It didn't matter much this time since they both stands that cant move far from their user.

But as far as punchghosts, yeah I think this is the first time the users directly fight each other. When Jotaro punches Josuke when they first meet, he intentionally doesn't use Star Platinum. Mostly because Josuke nearly just broke his face in with Crazy Diamond and also presumably because Jotaro didn't want to seriously injure him.

I expect you to namedrop the Part 6 Stand when it gets animated, because Filthy Acts at Reasonable Prices is pure genius especially when you go for its description.

Nah, Giorno barely knows what a Stand is, and Bruno's literally the second other person he's met with one. He probably doesn't know the rules.

What's the source on the official translated names for stuff we haven't seen yet? Has there been officially translated manga? Oingo Boingo / Zenyatta Mondatta was the first time I really noticed it. Worst Company was bad (haw) but Zipper Man takes the cake in terms of being comically different, and also just like "what the hell do we call this stand?" I'm real curious about that part 6 one now, but I don't want to peak at spoilers just yet.

Until we get the names from CR subs or Viz manga, I would not take ASB/EoH names as defacto. IIRC ASB went with Opal Jam for Pearl Jam, whereas the CR subs go with Pole Jam. Conversely, CR and ASB both use Zipper Man in place of Sticky Fingers, so its up in the air if CR’s gonna keep the infamous Part 6 one.
