You saw the glow around Mista right after he got hit. GE is fast lets not forget we can assume it hit the bullet.

Yeah, you can even hear the noise GE makes when it transforms stuff when the wound disappears.

The transformed items are generally roughly the same size, and if not they're pretty much always smaller, like when Narancia's shoe turned into a fly.

Though at the same time, snakebrick was just a whole-rear end brick with the front and back of a snake stapled to it, so mass was definitely added there.

I asked because if the bullet went into his brain it would damage more brain than the volume of the bullet.

Also, if he can replace part his brain that has been completely destroyed then that must mean he can replicate the structure in his brain down to the connections, so if he can do it for part of his brain there's no reason he can't do it for a full brain, so he could make clones of people if he was smart and become multiple man.

If Giorno made a second Mista would he also have a Stand? Would it be Sex Pistols or something else?

also would they all be boyfriends

You don't know if he hollowed out the inside of the brick to make the snake mass.

i might honestly say the thing mista benefits from the most by having sex pistols is that he can see what he's fighting. getting to redirect his shots just speeds up the inevitable

I deeply enjoyed Mista's strategy of being shot repeatedly with his own bullets.

If you wanted to science-facts it, the bullets probably lost a lot of [Energy] bouncing around so while they still sucked they were less devastating.

this conversation is really weird to me because it seemed obvious to me that Mista lost consciousness and his Stand (including the gun and the bullets) disappeared

like he's awake and talking groggily a few minutes later but like, his Stand literally tells him that he's going to fall unconscious and they're going to disappear when he does

i think its just a regular gun and bullets and his stand is only the little bullet gremlins that help him do crazy trick shots.

otherwise why would you have the whole scene with Giogio rather painfully healing him by turning all the bullets into flesh and blood while Narancia stumbles across them and wonders why it sounds like they're freakin'.

Yeah, his Stand isn't Emperor. The gun is a completely normal gun with completely normal bullets (beyond being purple but being a gangster means you gotta have some style). Sex Pistols is just the tiny bullet men, the rest is completely normal.

yeah you're right, i went back and rewatched it and

1) the gun is still in Mista's hand after he passes out
2) there's a flash of gold light and a sound effect which i'm pretty sure is always associated with Giorno's ability (plus he's right there lowering Mista to the ground at that point)

kind of a shame because "haha, i'm going to win because you're going to lose consciousness" *survives the fight by losing consciousness* would have been hilarious, but oh well

Plant Bites the Dust on a person, if that person tells anyone about Kira's identity, Bites the Dust will destroy that person and go back in time to before that person discovered Kira's identity. When the time gets to the point that the person died in the original timeline, they die in the new one. It can also use just the time travel if Kira is particularly stressed about his identity being discovered or something.

Also he can’t use Bites the Dust and the stand’s main functions at the same time. If he wants to use Killer Queen normally, he has to cancel BtD, which prevents anyone from exploding from the effects of BtD.

Ok so the real reason that Mista was fine is because he was hit by exactly 21 bullets. And 21 is non-divisible by 4! That's why Mista was fine. Had it been 20 bullets he'd be a goner, but that last bullet essentially saved his life.

You can't divide 19 by 4 either though. Or 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 17, and 18.
