I also just assumed Secco's melting power was starting to work on a human only because they were already a walking corpse? I forgot he threatened to do that to another (living) person.

my general assumption is that he can activate oasis on a lot of poo poo, but it takes a lot more effort and he needs to be closer to do it on, like, a person usually a lot of the time my go-to is 'they can do this but it takes more energy' and it seems to track pretty well

Secco says that the reason Bruno's starting to melt is because Secco is getting closer to him, as well as Bruno spending an extended period of time underground in all this liquefying dirt. It stands to reason that Secco could replicate that effect on a person directly by just digging his fingers into them

It always been reasonably consistent that the power or severity of a stand's ability is not an absolute constant and varies depending on context. Although this is usually in the context of the stamina or health of the user.

Bruno got a hit in on Secco. It's just shorthand for "Bruno isn't getting completely overwhelmed."

Still better than the New Kakyoin ending where he beats DIO but then DIO is all "Haha, I'm still alive, though." and kills him anyway. Also, Eyes of Heaven's "everyone lives" ending makes no sense to me. Ignoring that Kosaku lives, meaning that Hayato is still a creepy kid in a strained family, Jonathan living should mean the rest of the parts can't happen since DIO can't steal his body and indirectly give everyone else a Stand. Giorno also couldn't be born.

Eyes of Heaven threads the needle such that each part gets it's own happy ending, effectively creating eight new separate universes. zetamind2000 fucked around with this message at 12:29 on Jun 4, 2019 |

The best Kakyoin fanfic ending is the one from the 7th Stand User where he just goes to school with Jotaro and your OC at the end. It's even called "I made friends".

His catchphrase is "your next line is" so a stand that has him fighting with his own stength and wits but sometimes giving him a few extra hints is actually pretty fitting.

Turtlicious posted:Hey we finally are getting stands Hermit Purple is an extremely useful stand, just because it can't punch things. First off, as people have mentioned it's infinite hamon-transmittable rope. Second, it gives him the power of clairvoyance, which is an amazing out-of-combat utility power that IRL I'd much rather have than just being able to punch good. And as you saw when Dio used a Purple Hermit-like stand (it's not 100% clear, but people assume that that's Dio using the stand Jonathan Joestar would have had, since he's piloting his body) he doesn't NEED to smash the camera to make a magic camera, a light tap would probably be enough. Joseph is just kind of an idiot, and also he's filthy rich and can afford to buy more cameras. (We're informed that he's "the biggest real estate guy in New York" so he's easily a billionaire. And on top of that, since it's related to Stand research, he might be able to get reimbursed by the Speedwagon Foundation). Some people semi-jokingly theorize that Joseph only learned Hermit Purple's power because, in his rage that a Japanese guy stole his little girl's heart and took her to the the other end of the world where he can't regularly see her, he bought a bunch of expensive Japanese consumer electronics just to karate chop them into pieces.

I'm also assuming DIO has a better Hermit Purple than Joseph because he can somehow send his assassins after Joseph with amazing accuracy in multiple countries while Joseph can't find a stationary DIO even when using Hermit Purple in the same city.
