See: Shigechi being in a position to easily kill Josuke, Okuyasu and Kira using Harvest. Like, in absolutely any other hands, Harvest is ludicrously dangerous just because no one can fight 500+ tiny things who are apparently strong enough that if even one gets through, can maim you.

To be fair, I don't think he actually wanted to kill the former two (aside from when he tried to drop them off a building) and was afraid for his life in the latter case.

It’s really cool seeing those, I never realized that some jojo poses are dumb fashion poses but it makes perfect sense

This is probably my favorite fight in Jojo now, because it's presented like "Formaggio susses out the enemy stand" instead of the norm.

Yeah, it's not often that the bad guys go into the fight having no idea what the heroes are capable of.

If Formaggio had just waited around he'd probably have been screwed when Narancia switched cars. Or if he'd gotten to the hideout he would have to get away from there undetected as well, because if he's spotted he'd have to deal with six guys with unknown Stand powers, and then he'd be completely screwed.

Yeah, Mista would have shot him in the dick. Then he would've died, probably with Narancia laughing at him for being shot in the dick. At least this way he'll just be eaten by rats, like a real Italian.

Right, that's my point. Had Shigechi actually wanted to kill them, he absolutely could have, with quite a degree of ease. Kira didn't even see Harvest coming until they were in position to murder him with one blow.

The Abbachio would have replayed him getting shot in the dick over and over while the rest of the gang had a dance-off.

What would even make his Stand to make Sheer Heart Attack? Why does he know how to use that? "Shoot! That woman is all the way over there! And I'm over here!"

Look, sometimes you just want to have something with no weaknesses, and then your Stand delivers. That's a good master-cat relationship.

The common thread of Killer Queen’s abilities is that they’re all about erasing Kira’s worries. Killer Queen erases the evidence of his murders. Sheer Heart Attack goes after whatever he sics it on relentlessly while he can just grab a coffee. And Bites the Dust keeps someone who knows his secret from telling anyone else and remotely kills anyone going after him without him even having to know it’s happening.

I could see Sheer Heart Attack being used in a situation where someone saw him commit a murder and immediately ran for it. And Kira being just like “oh cool I can do this too”

Is there any subs that fix the names but leave everything else from CR? I have a CR sub but the names are getting on my nerves this part for some reason. :shrug:

That would likely be because practically every name in this part is going to be censored.

I imagine Part 6 will be the same.

But as far as I'm aware, there is no "Original Stand Name" subtitle group.

Quick check on :filez: gives at least one scrub group who works off Horrible and by proxy CR subs. But I settle for Horrible so nothing overall quality of the scrub.

Some people just tune out all of the dialogue when they watch subs. That’s how you get snobs who only watch anime subs yet can’t pronounce any of the characters’ names.

A lot of people just read a lot slower than others, too. Some people can just glance at the screen and catch everything, others can barely finish before the next thing comes up. Changes how you see foreign film.

Hearing and replicating something isn't necessarily easy and it can depend on several things. Someone with a strong accent and dialect is going to struggle copying specific ways of speaking their own language, never mind that of a different country.

As for me, I have a solid idea of how you're supposed to say Japanese words I've never heard if you're romanised them, I just don't give a gently caress to actually do so correctly.

I was expecting the spider part to be more unsettling. But yay, Narancia's backstory.
