It essentially had the opposite of Giorno's power, in that he turned living things into objects I think.

Dragonwagon posted:I can't even remember what baby face can even do, just that its a magic computer rape baby and somehow inspires Gio to use his stand for healing. Something about falling apart? It turns people into piles of cubes, IIRC. Giorno healed himself by replacing the parts of himself that were being turned into cubes with inanimate objects. And I guess it must also track things because that function is mentioned at the end of the current episode. Yeah, it really does have too much going on.

baby face can also re-organize those cubes to be any other inanimate thing, like he turns Trish into cubes and then turns those cubes into a table or something. the wiki page for it has five different headings for it under Abilities, so yeah it's just kind of a sloppy stand, that's more than Killer Queen can do. I feel like Clash and Talking Heads is an example of Araki trying something similar, but instead makes it two Users that combine their powers rather than one very very specific Stand Expect My Mom fucked around with this message at 20:17 on Jan 26, 2019 |

Also its defeat is kinda weird because it's a rare example of a (non-Bound) Stand being defeated by something other than another Stand. Like, it just gets blown up.

Melone calls it a Long Range Automatic Stand a bunch of times. once the sentient part of the stand is born, it's just kind of it's own thing

Ehh, the mother can't see it so I'd say it doesn't really count. Also it's definitely more of an Automatic-type.

Baby Face is made of physical matter and its stand page explicitly tells you that it's visible to normal people. Its mother couldn't see it because Baby Face was on the back of her head, and under normal circumstances, people can't see the backs of their own heads.

The dub sometimes does weird reinterpretations of scenes (like during Joseph's final "next you'll say..." against Kars, Kars asks how Joseph always knows the next line, gets blasted further into the air, and then says the line, which is honestly way better), so I'm imagining Melone saying "di molto" and another character going "uhh what the gently caress does that mean" and now I'm upset that it can't possibly happen because Melone is more-or-less completely alone for the entire fight.

I always thought that the "next you'll say..." stuff would work much better if Joseph said the line at the same time as the other guy.

Silver2195 posted:Yeah, it really does have too much going on. I was thinking the other day about how the difference between a stand that can do a lot but doesn't feel bullshit and one that does is how much they revolve around one idea. Like, it's not always clear how sticky fingers zippers are applied and when they function like a portal or a regular zipper or whether unzipped things are still "connected" or just severed, but really as long as you remember "this guy puts zippers on things" it just feels fine. Gold experience, on the other hand, doesn't feel as cut and dry. "He makes things into plants and animals" could be simple but one you get into things like how the animals retain the properties of what they're made of (like bricksnake) or how they behave it starts feeling very forced. It strays too far from one big idea and feels worse for it.

I imagine there's a timeline where Diavolo sold the arrows to the Speedwagon Foundation, they probably would have paid more for them. It makes me wonder though why a privacy-obsessed guy like Diavolo would even join an archeological expedition.

Yeah, the guy who created the Arrows lived thousands of years ago, IIRC. Maybe he was never supposed to be important beyond explaining why the Arrows exist at all, but the parallels to Kars, among other things, made it seem like he was supposed to matter at some point in the future.

Ah Well remember that Diavolo doesn't even exist unless he needs to, so I imagine he likely just goes way way way out of the way to make sure he never has to show himself through Doppio, while also making sure that even Doppio doesn't end up showing himself too much or else people might know he's in direct connection with Diavolo

in the original jojo timeline judas dug up jesus' bones and crafted them into the arrows and thats why stands come from the arrows instead of the corpse parts. and also jesus was the 1st jojo and judas yelled muda muda muda! when he betrayed jesus to the sanhedrin.

we're probably doomed to an eternity of crap jojo games nowadays due to a monkey's paw wish or something. either they play like poo poo, even to someone like me who is bad at fighting games yet can still recognize they're janky as hell, or will be some weird fuckin thing only available if you manage to wander down some random alleyway in japan on a wednesday or whatever.

Hello JoBros, how are you this evening Just stopping by to remind you that the ending song for Steel Ball Run is Beer For My Horses. It was a 2003 best-seller, it's about justice and also about horses, and it would end perfectly at 1:30. Imagine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdjA3iKYjk0 Dragonwagon posted:
