Jonathan holding onto Dio's head as he dies, still considering him someone he loves, as Dio is left in this silent moment, struck with the fact that one person in the world he does love has gone eternally quiet, is one of my top 10 favorite JoJo scenes People write Jonathan of as a "a boring boyscout" but i love characters like that

Expect My Mom posted:[watches the white album fight, king crimson erase time, notorious big all in a months time with high quality production, music and voice acting] For the most part, the animation really hasn't been so hot this part. There's been a lot of very dynamically framed still images. White album was good, though.

Also his 100% non tarnished goody two shoes gentleman was refreshing after having a lot of grey heroes so amusingly a retro concept was somewhat novel

Going from Jonathan to Joseph is some pretty insane whiplash. You go from a proper polite British aristocrat, to a street smart punk and it's so great.

AnEdgelord posted:Its also that the villain's power just gets more scrutiny in general due to the way Jojo fights go down. Meanwhile the hero's power is usually either pretty simple (Josuke, Jotaro) or a little handwavey (Giorno, Hamon) Jotaro's powers get pretty handwavey sometimes too. Star Platinum seemingly phases through solid objects a couple times but doesn't do it on several occasions when it would be useful, Jotaro effectively flies (by grabbing onto Star Platinum?) in the Dio fight but never does it in Part 4, and he apparently exceeds Star Platinum's stated range when he takes things into his prison cell at the beginning of Part 3. Not to mention Star Finger. Also, in Part 4, the villains all know that he "can stop time for 1 or 2 seconds," even though there's no explanation of who told them that. (My best guess is that D'Arby the Gambler told Keicho Nijimura.)

Kaiser Mazoku posted:Dio probably figured it out while he was spying on them but felt confident nonetheless because he knew Jotaro didn't know. That makes Dio's actions in the final fight really dumb. D'Arby makes more sense, since he survived his encounter with Jotaro (he had a mental breakdown, but we don't know whether it was permanent), and it's a common fan interpretation (although it's never stated outright) that part of the reason he literally failed to call Jotaro's bluff is because he wrongly suspected that Jotaro had stopped time.

Silver2195 posted:he apparently exceeds Star Platinum's stated range when he takes things into his prison cell at the beginning of Part 3. The obvious actual reason for this is that Araki hadn't thought up the rules yet at that point, but there's kind of an argument to be made that SP's normal limits don't necessarily apply when Jotaro isn't in full control. SP seems to also exceed its range (or utilize time stop without Jotaro knowing) by getting him the drink in the D'Arby fight where it's possible Jotaro is just nervously trying to bullshit his way through without knowing what he's doing (which is what happened in the latter D'Arby fight).

there's kind of a general idea that 'power' stands could totally go out further if they want but it dramatically lowers their actual strength, and it's not really touched on very often or much at all. araki was super just feeling poo poo out as he went along in part 3 so always just go with that before anything else, though.

Creating life somehow includes body parts like a limb which is just dumb. His power set is way too broad.

In hindsight, it's kinda weird Giorno doesn't reach to the boss trying to kill Trish considering how mad he got about Luigi. I guess it'd be redundant given Bruno's earlier reaction, though.

all that happened there was that Araki shaved off some powers like Things Giorno Makes Reflects Damage and Punching People Overwhelms Them With Life and now he just has punches that make plants and snakes

just ignore the damage reflection aspect, araki realized it was a really stupid thing to write around and stopped including it. even without it gold experience is just a really stupid stand

To be fair regarding GE’s sensory overload punches, he’s really only gotten to physically attack 3 things after Bruno: Black Sabbath, Baby Face and Ghaccio. 2 of those are stands and its likely that this power doesn’t work on them, going off what happened with Black Sabbath. As for Ghaccio, GE straight up murdered him, so we don’t really get to dwell on Ghaccio’s reaction, but we could probably assume his death was a very long and excruciating one for him to experience.
