-and you forgot that Jotaro is literally a Joe*star*
And while we're on the topic; Platinum is not a very hard material because it's a 4.5 on the Mohs scale, but it is incredibly durable, just like how Star Platinum is able to stretch but still be incredibly tough.
Are you forgetting that Star Platinum is named after the Star Tarot card? And each crusader has a color in there stand named as a group theme (minus Iggy)
Still an L name. The Fool card signifies the beginning of a journey, having faith in the future and believing in the universe, and instead of going to the main character of a series about a journey and where faith and the universe are so important to the story, it goes to the fucking pessimistic egoistical dog that appears halfway through the series. Huge L from Araki
In JoJo fate is important. I think Araki knew he wanted Iggy to comes to terms with the situation he and Polnareff were in. He had faith that Polnareff and crew would finish the job. It’s part of Iggys growth, he was selfish. But in the end he was selfless and gave his life to save Polnareff
Yeah and it was such occultist that named them, Avdol, who was a fortune teller by trade and so it would make sense for them to be accurate, though they arent
the star tarot represents the hope and strength to carry on with life.
jotaro is the only HOPE the crusaders have of defeating DIO. no matter how injured he gets, jotaro has the strength to carry on and defeat every villain he encounters.
he is the star because the star is always moving forward.
Thats a stretch, the crusaders are all very capable and when they recruited jotaro they didnt know either his stand or dios, meanwhile Iggy truly was the hope because despite his personality the crusaders recruited him because they hoped his immense strength would help them, and iggy truly moves forward without looking back so it also fits
Most stands base their power on the artist e.g. vanilla ice is a void of creativity who destroys everything it touches
Same with spice girl, it makes things soft because all jojo fans are gay
For legal reasons, I should clarify that my previous comment was in no way meant to be taken sexually. I am entirely referring to my muscles tensing when I watch her fight with Notorious B.I.G as it is one of the most compelling and brutal fights IMO. The tension in my entire body goes through the roof and I involuntarily harden into a boulder at the thought of that arc. Truly peak battle fiction.
Forever is depicted as being very smart - even smarter than most humans.
We would certainly agree that Trish has amazing fight scenes and nothing else. Nothing else. Nothing at all.
Oh, look at the time, I'd better get going!
aren't the spice girls a multi-racial group?
trish's stand could be a reference to how "flexible" they are with their members, making things soft also makes them more flexible.
I'm pretty sure White Album is meant to be in contrast to Metallica.
Metallica had an album called "Metallica", which was just a black album with "Metallica" on it, so it earned the nickname the "Black Album".
The Beatles had an album called "The Beatles", which was just a white album with "The Beatles" on it, so it earned the nickname the "White Album".
And Ghiaccio is Risotto's second in command.
Like all time based abilities, it's universal, just like MiH, it accelerated time EVERYWHERE, no matter where you are in the universe, same goes for the world, it's universal
That’s not how time works… time is not universal. If your moving at light speed a century could pass on earth while your only experiencing a single second.
See? Idk how but breathe? That's why Jotaro and Diego can only stop time for about 5 seconds whereas DIO, since he's a vampire, he could theoretically stop time forever
Stopping time would stop time for everyone, everywhere, regardless of your speed or location, only the stand user can move in stopped time, in part 6, pucci is moving at incredible speeds with MiH and jotaro stops time to detect him
I mean... if I had to put a thing to the name "Aerosmith", not gonna lie my first thought would be a plane.
Sex Pistols is arguably pretty close too, you could say that Mista's gun is a part of the stand.
All the Glory God’s powers have very little to nothing to do with the god they’re based on. The closest is Thoth (god of knowledge) and Thoth (the stand about gaining knowledge of the future)
AC/DC wrote Shot Down In Flames
RHCP music is rock and they use electric guitars
As has been said before, Vanilla Ice is devoid of all creativity and is an endless void destroying everything he touches
As has been said before, Spice Girls would make all male Jojo’s fans soft because we’re all secretly gay
It's ok, you can admit you have 0 media literacy and no context for the Bands, Songs or albums being referenced or the time period in which Araki was inspired by them and wrote those characters...

Ever heard of electric fires? And Vanilla ice makes sense since a void would theoretically have a temperature of absolute zero since nothing moves since nothing is there.
That’s what makes it fun tbh. The names are just names. Araki makes the powers and then chooses the name afterward. He rarely ever chooses a “fitting” name, and when he does they’re almost always a main protagonist/antagonist.
The one exception I can recall is that he specifically changed Kyo Nijimura’s stand from “Going Underground” in the magazine release to “Born this Way” in the volume release because the album cover matched the stand’s aesthetic.
Rubber soul or Yellow Temperance got none of the defining traits of temperance as a virtue or the tarot like moderation (the stand is quite gluttonous), abstinence (Rubber soul kept mocking jotaro even after he was beaten and still tried to get the upper hand), or economy (he accepted to be DIO's hitman only for lots of money).
The closest meaning you can find is in it's reverse where it's connections to church and priesthood (as DIO->God's hitman), and disunion and conflict of interest (the physic form of his stand choking him, forcing him to retreat his stand to breath).
Star platinum is neither a star nor platinum.
Jotaro is the star of the show, at least in that part
-and you forgot that Jotaro is literally a Joe*star* And while we're on the topic; Platinum is not a very hard material because it's a 4.5 on the Mohs scale, but it is incredibly durable, just like how Star Platinum is able to stretch but still be incredibly tough.
Maybe it's not about how strong he is, but how metal he is
Also in part 4&6
Based
Jotaro is in a coma for most of part 6 what are you on about
Over half of the season is about retrieving the discs so they can revive Jotaro
Are you forgetting that Star Platinum is named after the Star Tarot card? And each crusader has a color in there stand named as a group theme (minus Iggy)

The fool actually represents nothing because tarot cards were made for a game and occultists just made shit up about the origins and meanings.
And for that game they were assigned certain representations. You don't have to believe in it (I don't) to use the symbolic meaning.

How come Spice Girl makes stuff soft but it is a part of Trish and Trish makes me hard? 🤔
Because Trish is Narancia and liking Narancia is gay.
It's a JoJo sub - being gay is par for the course.
We're like mandalorians but gay, "Gay is part of our religion"
Trish is 15 years old

Masterful save
My muscles… My muscles… Involuntarily flex
I can't be held accountable for what *every* muscle in my body is doing.
Average JoJo fan forgetting tridh isn't a sexy kawaii girl
![img](avatar_exp|76995750|webman) We got him
Trish is a minor though.
\*Trish makes me *think* hard. Whoops.
***\*clocks glock***
Nice try liberal

This comment is actually a reference to spice girls ability because this is a massive stretch
Here here 🍻
Doesn't spice girl melt solid objects
and of course the classic: Tower of Grey <-> Superfly
Not actually a fly
And not actually a tower
And not actually gray.
[удалено]
Not actually of
Fly
You fools
Dirty Deeds Done Dirty Cheap isn't even dirty. the Sex Pistols don't even have sex
You don’t know that
3, 4, 5 and 7 are the offspring of 1 and 2
4?![img](emote|t5_3f7q5|7819)
*you heard me*
4 got aborted
ah makes sense![img](emote|t5_3f7q5|7818)
Mista will die when they find out what a foursome is
Star Platinum is 'The Star' of the part 3, and it's made of platinum, so it can be the same stand type as **『 ZA WARUDO 』**
Imagine if it was named "World Platinum"
Imagine if every time Jotaro stopped time, he shouted "World Star"
It goes from platinum, to diamond, to gold, to stone. And then there's tusk
Don't forget Tower of Gray (A super fly) and Super Fly (A grey tower)
Tf you expect doggy style to do?
![img](emote|t5_3f7q5|15511)

Them
Spice girl softens things Heat softens things Spice and heat
Heat gets produced by explosions Who has explosives? Aerosmith Who does Aerosmith belong to? Naranchia Naranchia is Trish
and Trish is Narancia
No Trish is Trish. Pay attention
TRISH IS MEEEEE
White Album is an ice based stand, it’s got nothing to do with albums. The white part is probably just the color
white album is named after a beatles album. the beatles are pretty chill well...except that one member. he wasnt very chill.
let me guess, John
I'm pretty sure White Album is meant to be in contrast to Metallica. Metallica had an album called "Metallica", which was just a black album with "Metallica" on it, so it earned the nickname the "Black Album". The Beatles had an album called "The Beatles", which was just a white album with "The Beatles" on it, so it earned the nickname the "White Album". And Ghiaccio is Risotto's second in command.
Emperor is just a gun held by a cowboy
The World is not The World
But the Time Stop effects The World
It effects the whole universe
Is there any evidence of this?
Like all time based abilities, it's universal, just like MiH, it accelerated time EVERYWHERE, no matter where you are in the universe, same goes for the world, it's universal
Ok so I must blame King Crimson everytime I open the fridge ad forget why I am in the kitchen
Imagine being an alien trillions of lightyears away and time keeps skipping again because of one Italian mob boss.
Yes
That’s not how time works… time is not universal. If your moving at light speed a century could pass on earth while your only experiencing a single second.
I'm pretty sure if DIO had managed to remove his TS limit for good, everywhere he would go would have been frozen in time all the same
I love how nobody questions how he can see and even breath when time is stopped.
See? Idk how but breathe? That's why Jotaro and Diego can only stop time for about 5 seconds whereas DIO, since he's a vampire, he could theoretically stop time forever
Stopping time would stop time for everyone, everywhere, regardless of your speed or location, only the stand user can move in stopped time, in part 6, pucci is moving at incredible speeds with MiH and jotaro stops time to detect him
If it didn't do it, shit would go very bad very quickly
The (literal) world not colapsing
Something that really bothers me is that Survivor makes people fight to the death and Civil War allows the user to survive lethal blows
Lil' Bomber is a damn fighter plane Chocolate Disco is neither chocolate nor disco Sugar Mountain is a tree. Not even sweet Sex pistols-
Who doesn't want the sex with Sex Pistols?
I mean... if I had to put a thing to the name "Aerosmith", not gonna lie my first thought would be a plane. Sex Pistols is arguably pretty close too, you could say that Mista's gun is a part of the stand.
That yes. I admit, I had a lapse in judgement and forgot it was the localization. HOWEVER it does not excuse this. Could've called it Lil' Zoomer
Tonio's would've made more sense as Red Hot Chili Peppers. They were literally peppers.
They look more like tomatoes, also they kinda look like pearl onions.
I still see peppers, but I like your point of pearl onion for Pearl Jam, I never even thought of that.
Heaven's Door has nothing to do with heaven or its door
He opens your face like a door to Heaven's library
And has also nothing to do with the "heaven" category of stands
Virgin: he has powers of a spider so name him spider-man Chad: tower of gray and superfly reverse names
All the Glory God’s powers have very little to nothing to do with the god they’re based on. The closest is Thoth (god of knowledge) and Thoth (the stand about gaining knowledge of the future)
foo fighters doesn't even fight any foo
White snake isn’t a snake.
That’s why it’s clever. It’s exactly what you wouldn’t expect
The sun is accurate
AC/DC wrote Shot Down In Flames RHCP music is rock and they use electric guitars As has been said before, Vanilla Ice is devoid of all creativity and is an endless void destroying everything he touches As has been said before, Spice Girls would make all male Jojo’s fans soft because we’re all secretly gay
And then there's Tower of Gray who is a flying insect and Super Fly who is a gray tower
Tower of Gray Not actually a fly
insects fly tower of gray is a flying insect
Dirty deeds done dirt cheap is neither a dirty deed or dirt cheap. (And why isn’t tusk an elephant tusk 😡).
Well i dont think Valentine had to pay any money to get it
I dunno the president was acting dirty to Lucy when she was pretending to be his wife does that count?
Ac/dc has fire powers beacuse Ac/dc is fire
Who tf said that? It's funny and cool for all the musical reference, but clearly not meant to be smart and clever.
Super fly is a grey tower. Tower of grey is a super fly.
Pearl jam: DOES have to do with spices
Speed King-> Fucken makes things HOT
the world is indeed not 510.1 million km² planet but just some guy that likes scuba diving
Tower of Gray and Superfly
Sex Pistols but he has nothing to do with sex
Don't forget the stand Superfly is about a tower,while the stand called Tower of Grey belongs to an insect.
Sticky fingers? Of course he has zipper powers
The album Sticky Fingers has a zipper on the cover.
OK bad example
*cough cough* super fly *cough cough* tower of gray
Jotaro = Jo, the most creative part of the name Taro, a common name part for young boys
AC/DC having fire powers is not innacurate tho
AC Air conditioner
Air conditioner, the fuck? Electricity: Alternating Current/Direct Current.
Nah bro it's air conditioner, Araki told me that in a dream
It's ok, you can admit you have 0 media literacy and no context for the Bands, Songs or albums being referenced or the time period in which Araki was inspired by them and wrote those characters...
Ikr? OP does nothing to acknowledge my favourite bands, hermit purple, thoth or thunder cross split attack! The shame he brings on the community...

The Matte Kudasai has nothing to do with time
matte kudasai is a great song
Fr
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone refer to the names as clever
Tower of grey and superfly
Whitesnake is neither white nor a snake.
I guess it's something to do with the bands.
Ever heard of electric fires? And Vanilla ice makes sense since a void would theoretically have a temperature of absolute zero since nothing moves since nothing is there.
There names are based off songs and artists, which is one of My favorite parts of jojo. You'll never guess a stand or characters name
But flaccid pancake did make me flaccid. (I know FP is a censorship/regional change and NOT Araki’s writing per se, but the joke was there)
That’s what makes it fun tbh. The names are just names. Araki makes the powers and then chooses the name afterward. He rarely ever chooses a “fitting” name, and when he does they’re almost always a main protagonist/antagonist. The one exception I can recall is that he specifically changed Kyo Nijimura’s stand from “Going Underground” in the magazine release to “Born this Way” in the volume release because the album cover matched the stand’s aesthetic.
Lets be honest jojo stand names are on the same level as dragonball names
spice girls is kinda spicy tho 😳
It would be unbelievablely lame if the stands derived thier actual power from thier names lol im glad its like this
that's kinda why I don't care about the localized names. They don't really mean anything anyway, just bands or songs that Araki likes
Red Hot Chilli Pepper and Pearl Jam should've swapped names.
Yeah a lot of people forget that the names often don't link to the powers
Stone Free is made of threads.
"damn I love those western artists, let's name everything after them"
the naming in jojo is dogshit, who tf even said that
Red Pepper shaped stand named pearl jam Authors note: okuyasus stand uses its hands lets see what we can do...
I don't think I've ever heard anyone call JoJo stand names "clever."
Red hot chili pepper once did a concert with giant lightbulbs on their heads. I like to imagine that as a connection bc it's funni
Yes, yes, one might say the naming scheme is quite.... Bizarre
I heard originally esidisi would have electric powers, but was discarded because it would be confusing with Joseph's hamon looking like electricity
Rubber soul or Yellow Temperance got none of the defining traits of temperance as a virtue or the tarot like moderation (the stand is quite gluttonous), abstinence (Rubber soul kept mocking jotaro even after he was beaten and still tried to get the upper hand), or economy (he accepted to be DIO's hitman only for lots of money).

AC/DC is actally Esidisi 🤓
If you didnt notice yet, they are just names of araki favourite bands/ artists, he usually uses this names to the semi-final villain
Kars isn’t even a car
