One thing I've noticed is that GioGio definitely seems the most plain Jojo so far, at least since Jonathan himself. The supporting cast is def the strongest yet though.

The thing to remember is that Giorno's own parental figures failed him as parents and he exists as a composite of the graceful, knightly, gentlemanly. impulsive nature of Jonathan but with the pure charisma, tenacity, passion, and drive of Dio.

When I first saw Mista's hand get stuck I thought it was just, like, a sticky or magnetic sort of Stand but then he started pulling some Immovable Rod poo poo and then he started using it like the Stasis thing in the new Zelda. Anyway Kraftwerk is one of those delightful Stands that reminds me that the ideal Jojo video game is not a fighting game, but rather one of those rear end in a top hat physics simulators.

Kraftwerk is a great stand, I would have loved if it was a protagonist stand so we could have seen more stuff done with it.

I really hope that the last two stands aren't extremely lame, but they don't inspire me with a lot of confidence. Narancia's stand especially looks silly in the intro.

theres like 4 who get ganked at the immediate start in part 3 plus j geils later

after that I dont think its until you get to pet shop that the protagonists actually kill someone though enya does die due to spore and n'doul kills himself

I wouldn't call either lame, extreme or otherwise. Fugo's is cooler than Narancia's, though.

I mean let's consider the DIO minions they wasted. Taggin' it for being so comprehensive.


Kakyoin - eventually killed by Joseph's neglect
Tower guy - suicide
Polnareff - rehabilitated
Moon dude - died pissing his pants
Forever - died, as befits a rape ape
Yellow Temperance - I think he dead
Ebony Devil - died (but definitely self defense)
J. Geil - killed by a Frenchman
Hol Horse - Hol Horse
Gross zit baby Stand - killed by Joseph
Wheel of Fortune - probably dead
Enya - killed by Dan of Steel
Dan of Steel - that dude was absolutely dead
Evil Baby - forced to eat poo poo
That dude Avdol pissed on - Probably died of piss
Midler - beat up
N'doul - yeah
Anubis - Rusted away
Oingo - exploded
Boingo - spiritually dead (reads comics)
D'arby the older - Spiritually defeated
Mariah - Hospitalized
The dude with the baby making Stand - that dude absolutely dead
Pet Shop - dead
D'arby the younger - Spiritually dead (video gamer)
The guy with the Illusion stand - Iggy absolutely killed him
Vanilla Ice - dead
Nukesaku - dead
DIO - dead

So it's a clear majority, complete with multiple piss-related deaths.

That does nothing to actually explain the specific ability of the stand, which you did. Thanks for saving us the trouble of finding out though, everyone really appreciates it.

ok, so here is a thought

if kraftwerk was able to make a ladder out of stones, it means that once the stones are stuck in the air they are unable to move despite force being put on them

but then he sticks one of the bullets to his skull, and then the second bullet hits the first one and pushes it into his brain

but shouldn't the first bullet not have moved at all like the stones

its almost as if none of this makes sense

This was my take too. Which is why the second bullet hosed him up.

Yeah cause if he was still affixing the first bullet, he would not be able to move.

It seems like he can fix things in relation to specific points of reference. For most of the fight he's using the truck as that reference point, so Mista stays on the truck even when it's turning on the windy mountain road. But since he's doing things relative to the truck, when he stops the bullet in his skull, he needs to release it again to be able to move.

Well the guy did not get his brain mulched. The bullet just entered his brain a bit, causing him to pass out. (And likely causing brain damage.)

Didn't he bite his own tongue off so they couldn't interrogate him? I wasn't sure how all that worked. In fact I'm not sure how that guy managed to cause so many plane crashes. Did he just geek all the pilots and then jump out the back door?
