The thing that confused me was how Bruno ended up being able to escape into the ceiling. Did he... jump? Also is he a zombie now?

Bruno unzipped his hand and grabbed the ceiling with it, and then used it like a grappling hook

I think Buca di Beppo's actions in this episode are like, prime Jojo injury poo poo. Holding a woman in one arm on the side where you've been cleaved through the shoulder down below the ribs. Like his entire side should be falling off, and he's walkin' it off. That's the power of a true capo.

I do find it interesting that Bruno has more of a standard main character Stand then Giorno, a big, fast short-ranged bruiser with a simple but extremely versatile utility power.

araki likes to play around with what we expect as he goes further into the series. even josuke himself was a turn from jotaro in that he had wildly visible mood swings and his stand's 'main' purpose was to heal people

Bruno is a loving badass and at first, I was saddened knowing that Noriaki Sugiyama wouldn't be voicing him for the anime like he did for the CC2 games, but drat has Yuuichi Nakamura being an absolutely amazing choice for the anime. Well, in general every VA choice has been fairly great, though I don't think anything beats Okamoto as Ghiaccio so far.

To be fair, Josuke's mood swings are probably from being nurtured by the very silly Higashikatas he has for a mom and grampa.

what i'm going to say on the matter is that the show made a point to note that something is weird with him but anyone who has the bright idea to try and elaborate on the matter is probably going to, again, rapidly be getting into the territory of saying dumb poo poo that they shouldn't be even if it's barely even related

I don't think it's possible to have a more fitting voice for him than Bakugo.

Yeah, as someone who has only seen the anime King Crimson seems to make just as much sense as anything else in JoJo? Hell I'd say he makes more sense than Giorno's stand.

It's much more confusing to follow along when you are looking at panels in a comic book rather than an animation. Also, there's stuff that happens in the future that seems to contradict the rules of it but that happens a lot.

Bruno zipped his soul back into his dead body.

Or the Bruno we know is still dead, but Giorno's stand ability created another version of him with all his memory's and stand ability like he did with the turtle without Giorno knowing.

The fly is a stand user with a power even more powerful than Josuke's healing abilities :v:

I like the visual and sound cues they chose for king crimsons ability. Adds to the whole "editing time" aspect of his stand.

A friend asked me this question and I told them to think for a second about what some of the stands in this part can do.

King Crimson's extremely sassy poses with his eternally pissed off face really gets to me.

His ability is a lot easier to understand in motion. It doesn't help that Araki makes it as abstract as possible in the manga.

I love Bruno so much he's my favorite character in the whole series now and I was really upset when he seemingly died. I'm still worried about him because there's something obviously wrong with his body but at least his resolve remains intact.

Not really. The key phrase is "all that remains in this world are the results." Nothing that happens during the erased time actually matters, which is why the boss doesn't just hit people like Dio did during stopped time. Since everything else is stuck on course, for everything but the boss this is the equivalent of just skipping ahead to the results. The boss isn't stuck with what was supposed to happen so he's kinda exempt from it.

At least I'm pretty sure. It's a weird power.

Everyone's so concerned with understanding King Crimson that they missed Giorno's latest bullshit of implanting turtle cells in his brooch, and creating a clone of the turtle that had the same stand.

Well obviously King Crimson can’t activate after The World but if the World activated during the skipped time then uhhhhhh...Maybe the boss would be able to move until the end of the skipped time but then he’d get frozen for the remaining time left in the time stop?

Basically whoever activates their stand first wins.

Sorry to add more dumb King Crimson poo poo, but, like, the gang all also skipped, right? So does that mean everyone on the planet also skips forward too? Is it just an area of skipping that included the whole island?

There would be some issues if it was the whole world so it’s probably just an arbitrarily long range.

I imagine it to taper off at a certain distance, yeah. To someone, say, watching a video of someone in the zone, the person would appear to continue what they were doing, but then suddenly have no memory of the past X seconds.

I like to think that since stands are the manifestation of someones psyche then all animals of the same species have the same stand since they mostly operate off of the same impulses and dont have much of a psyche to speak of.

Well maybe the orangutan, Iggy and Petshop all come from species that are intelligent enough to have different kinds of stands, but weve never seen any other orangutans, dogs or eagles with a stand.
