comedyblissoption posted:Based on what's been shown so far, I think you can come up with multiple interpretations of how his ability works and they're still all consistent. I think the key thing is that the world of "skipped time" is like entering the court of the crimson king where the user has extra abilities during the skipped time. But your explanation as to why it’s consistent is essentially that it’s consistently inconsistent, which I guess is true but not really the point being made? Boss clearly has a bunch of different powers for interacting with the skipped time but they’re not clearly defined and so most of his interactions in fights feel like bullshit as a result, because you can’t logically think about what he’s going to do based on the limitations of his power.

King Crimson it erases up to 10 seconds of time and any events during and leaves only the results. Only the boss can adjust what he was doing when he skipped, and his sub stand Epitaph lets him see 10 seconds into future which allows him to avoid near anything he finds disadvantageous. It's actually pretty simple when you put it down like that.

Why is "Doppio gets shot" an "event" that gets skipped and not a "result" that doesn't?

Mechafunkzilla posted:If an event gets erased then it wouldn't have any results because it would never have happened!!!!!!!!!!! In this world, only the results remain. This is the Boss's mentality, so this is his stand. This is in direct opposition to the gang's mentality, so this element of his character and therefor his stand gets to do whatever it takes to really lean into it. It's like every version of Kira's stand being a get out of jail free card, even to a completely ridiculous extent like Bite the Dust. For major antagonists it's always more important that their stand operates as an extension of what they represent and poo poo than for them to be a singularly solvable puzzle.

You don't need to move in erased time if you can see the future anyway. You only need to manipulate events to be what you need and the fact you can see that future means you can do that reliably.

except the boss says multiple times that epitaph's predictions can't be changed during the metallica fight. unless maybe you do it in such a way that it's dramatically ironic e: I mean I guess you could use the prediction to influence events afterwards but I dunno I just don't like the way king crimson is used

I do prefer KC's anime colour scheme to its manga one. It looks much cleaner without the yellow. Come to think of it, what are you folks' fave Stand designs so far? Not in terms of powers, but their actual appearance.

Purple Haze and Grateful Dead are pretty great. And the sound design for Moody Blues is amazing. EDIT: Speaking of different color schemes in the anime, Aerosmith is usually portrayed as blue and purple. I think the anime version looks better.

Oh you mean all the stands in the anime so far? That's tough since there are so many. I guess I'll make it easier by doing my Top 3 of each part Part 3: The World and Cream definitely. The last one is tough, it's a tie between Death 13 and Horus I guess. Part 4: There aren't actually that many stands in this part compared to others so it's easier(and some don't really have a physical form). Top 3 are Killer Queen, Heaven's Door, and RHCP. Part 5: Grateful Dead and Black Sabbath, with the final one being a secret for now. I mentioned Purple Haze before but it's more the presentation of it with the growling and drooling than the actual design. RatHat fucked around with this message at 09:11 on Apr 28, 2019 |
