digiorno's stand: golden wind, i think: turns rocks into frogs and punches people with the drug that was in the 2012 judge dredd movie
buckle rati: they called it zipper man in the show which is hilarious and hopefully not the real name: decapitates people with zippers and puts things in peoples mouths, wakes up feeling horny
polpo: black sabbath is a better name: shadow jumpscare man that stabs peoples souls with a magic arrow that gives them stand powers, likes to eat

Gold Experience, Sticky Fingers, and Black Sabbath.

Look forward to more name changes in the future. None of the Part V cast is going to have their actual Stand name in subtitles.

uh one guy has a gun that shoots a bullet that looks like it's redirected by despicable me minions so im guessing he does cool trick shots
one guy has a cool plane that probably also shoots bullets
from what iv'e seen on the internet one of them has a stand that makes you drink piss or something and also reddit was talking about the number 4 a lot
one looks like it does some weird time poo poo
also the chain person is interesting, my initial assumption is it's something like seeing multiple outcomes to an event and picking the one tey want but that sounds horrendously overpowered so thats probably not it
also there's a character that my girlfriend insists is a girl and i know jojo so it's probably a dude and it looks like they really like math

that's all i've got

Araki has been writing stands for three Parts at this point. He's good enough not to write himself into a corner with a Stand with such an extreme insta-kill ability for a heroic character.

Well, yes, their skin goes brown but the pulp stays good for way longer.

I wonder how the whole "don't put bananas in the fridge" thing started in the US.

Bananas (and other fruit, like apples) release ethylene gas, which causes fruit to ripen faster. In an enclosed space, like a fridge, ethylene can make fruit go bad faster than it would at room temperature.

Yeah I don't know all the terminology to dissect it musically but it rules and I don't want them to stop writing music like that.

It's hard to pick a favorite but I love the first one in Stardust Crusaders. It's got that surf rock guitar tone and is overall reminiscent of various 60s styles, like the "spy jazz" popularized in film and television soundtracks. And then in the middle they add a dubstep style drop and it doesn't ruin the song! I mean on paper it sounds really dumb but it's just the right amount to work.

You know what'd be cool would be an Ennio Morricone spaghetti western stand theme.

alright went back to look at the op for the other 2 guys

vcr display man - not sure exactly, probably fan turn people into vcr tapes so he can take their abilities or something or he gets people mad by turning all VCR time disp[lays to flashing "12:00"s

checkerboard guy - emits a large cloud. probably not a good cloud. knowing araki given the color pallete and the power....i'm going to name it r u experienced

It does amuse me that Araki had to handwave his way out of a corner so that GioGio could MUDA the enemy stand without killing Polpo or Polpo even being aware of the fight, just so he could hand over the Passione badge and then immediately eat it (pun intended)

I don't think there were any examples in previous parts of a "automated, long range" stand user just being entirely unaffected by his stand being damaged. The closest parallel I can think of is Kira's Sheer Heart Attack heat-seeking bomb which still affected the user even if he was unaware of what was specifically happening with it.

Curious to see what gunman is about. I at first mistook him in the OP for being Bucciarati but this episode made it clear he's a different person.

Stands like The Lovers or Shigechis Harvest are examples of remote control types. Steely Dan never reacts to any hit Kakyoin and Polnareff land on the Lovers and Harvest doesnt react when Josuke and Okuyasu are clearly following them because they arent its objective.

Damage to Sheer Heart Attack also never transferred back to Kira until it cant move anymore. Theres a couple scenes where it cuts back to Kira and hes all "geez what's taking so long"

The Lovers did react though, it just was capable of creating clones of itself so that the original one wouldn't get hurt.

There are definitely some other stands that match that kind of stand though as far as "can be beat up at long range but won't transfer damage to the user"

There were also definitely stands that just outright didn't transfer damage, but those were things that either couldn't specifically be attacked (Mariah's or Oingo's ability), or were attached to some physical object like Strength, Wheel of Fortune, Justice, probably The Fool since it was made of sand (though I'm not sure if it was sand the stand itself made or if it was made up of regular sand around itself, which is why I'm not sure), and Surface

Sheer Heart Attack was nigh invulnerable, so it really didn't ever take damage, just come comsetic cracking for most of it.

The Lovers reacts to pain yeah, just like Black Sabbath does when it's in sunlight, but neither seems to bother their users at all

As I recall though Shigechi did still take "damage" from Harvest being destroyed, it was just incredibly minor because his Stand was the entirety of Harvest and so destroying one or two Harvest was like trimming the nails on another Stand?

I may be misremembering though it's been a while.

I dont think we ever Shigechi hurt until hes REALLY hurt. Kira punch rushes Harvest at times and hes fine, he only seem hurt when he's hit directly.

My being that theres def precedence for a Stand like Black Sabbath that transfers neither the damage nor what it's happening to its user

IIRC they also completely destroyed Judgment with no apparent damage to the user. It makes some intuitive sense to me, remote stands are more separate from you so you can't directly control them but they also aren't damage linked to you.
