If Fugo could be infected by his own stand it would be the most useless thing in the world.

I'm not gonna read the whole thread before answering this cause I'm way behind, so apologies if this is a repeat, but all they said so far within the canon is he's too scared of the idea to even test it out, so it's not known.

I wonder how he even knows about it then... I guess you kind of just get an intuitive feel for your Stand Power, though.

Well I'm sure he's seen everything dying near the gas from the punches, he's just not willing to walk into the cloud and see what happens.

As always, this varies significantly from Stand to Stand. Some users seem to completely figure out theirs intuitively (for example Kira seemed to understand exactly what Bites the Dust does before even using it) while some (such as Koichi) have no clue until they stumble upon some realization or their own Stand just straight up tells them.

Koichi basically beat the system by getting full-healed and Esuna'd though, so it makes sense he doesn't know what the gently caress is going on.

I believed the implication there was that Kira activated Bites the Dust as soon as the arrow penetrated him.

Since he fought Freddy ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVbaYFVUbLo) and apparently survived since he did songs later, he could probably beat Death 13, at least.

Yeah, maybe, although that doesn't seem to really explain how he knew the mechanics and limitations behind it. Regardless, the point remains that there seems to be users from the entire range of 0-100% intuitive knowledge about their Stand.

Don't steal them.
I'm so impressed at how good D.C. Douglas is as Kira. Like even beyond the inherent flawless casting of Kira and Wesker sharing the same voice actor, he really is doing as good a take on the character as Morikawa is.

Dude's just really fuckin' good at playing people who look like Bowie

Douglas is absolutely incredible, yes. I already loved him as Wesker but roles like Kamoshida and especially Kira have him quickly rising through the ranks as one of my favorite VAs.

And loving hell, I love White Album, and I love just how much I totally forgot about it so the twists and turns would remain surprises. Mista is the greatest.

Mista's skateboard did not at all look exactly like a skateboard in the manga, more like a patchwork square of grass, but gently caress it i'll say it's a change for the better for how cool it makes Mista look

That was a great fight. There was some really clever usage of stands and the stupid poo poo was forgivable because it was badass.
