"If I had a yen for every time I've met someone who wrote weird fanfiction where Jotaro has kids, I'd have two yen. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?" -Hirohiko Araki
I love Remote Romance, for many reasons. It has a great design, ability, interesting backstory, and just the fact that instead of saying "hey you can also view the exhibition online", you know, like a normal person, Araki just invents a whole Stand for online visitors. And the fact that it's a Stand that "haunts" the server after its user's death reminds me of some part 8 Stands which Araki went on to create.
Post Mortem Stands, like Notorious B.I.G. If you watch Hunter x Hunter you will know that Nen Abilities can remain after death and are typically a lot stronger than when the User was alive due to a lingering will/mentality towards how they died or the world around them before they died
D'you think we'll see Wonder of U in part 9? It would be very interesting (especially if we have old Gappy). I wouldn't want him as a main antagonist but more of a catalyst for the story
2:32 it's probably more accurate to say that Joseph just thinks he needs to karate chop a camera to use Spirit Photography and he can just tap it like DIO
I feel like it's more about practice. DIO was able to increase the seconds he could stop time the more he practiced and used it, so maybe it's the same with Jonathan's stand. Joseph, on the other hand, stopped his Hamon training long ago and so maybe he doesn't utilize his Stand that much either unless it's necessary.
I always felt that way, like he loves to break stuff and he is so rich he just doesnt mind breaking cameras (after all he is the guy who bought a luxury car only to trade it to a stranger for some camels and water), while Dio isn't so he learned to use it better
@@MasterLu551 totally, the TV used on the Lovers arc wasn't damaged, just like the airplane and Darby's console, Joseph is just too brute with technology sometimes and would love to see more ways of divination with other objects
My favourite "obscure stand" is definitely Remote Romance. Not just because of its stylish design and original ability but also because I love the song its name references lol
There was actually another Jojo escape room, based around part 4 in which the players would be hunted by Kira in an amusement park. Apparently, the story involved the players awakening their own stands to escape, but we don't have many details on this.
@@universaldc2175They created a single new Stand, Little Faces, which took the form of a piece of paper that could mimic the abilities of other Stands manually awakened by the arrow (so, no Star Platinum or Crazy Diamond, because those were awakened by Jonathan's body, but technically The World would count), so long as it was rearranged to fold in a shape that had only one "face" visible. The heroes of Part 4 volunteered to draw the faces of their Stands on Little Faces, so you have all our major heroes on there, but neither Jotaro nor Josuke knew about your limitation; their Stands' faces are also on there.

Now imagine being attack by something called "Rainy Day Dream Away". What is that? What in the fuck is coming after me?

To be fair, it's easily countered if an enemy just avoids the rain. If someone like Jotaro, Polnareff or Bruno just had an umbrella, the user would be bodied. Or if the enemy doesn't experience an emotion that hinders them for the rain to lock on (i.e. Fugo was only locked because he happened to accidentally trip), so if someone with a decently-strong Stand just walks up to the user and maintains the intent to defeat him/her, there's nothing the user can do.
@@mrreyes5004 yeah but all of what you said depends on them knowing the stand's abilities and coming prepared, also being actually close to the guy (he can just hide and never even show up). It's easily beatable in very ideal situation which let's be honest never happen.

@@Charysm MiH Ultimate can accelerate time much faster than MiH, going through 37 universes in a short amount of time. It can also target individuals and speed up time on them only (Kars uses it on Antonio Torres to keep him from dying by continually creating new clones with his Wound) D4C Ultimate didn't get used much because Kars couldn't land an attack on Dio with it, but it is able to create portals to parallel worlds that anyone can hide in (hiding inside a world that is in Jorge's stomach during the final battle) C-Moon ultimate was taken control of by DIO before Kars could use it, but any Stand Kars wields always becomes it's "Ultimate" version because being the Ultimate being gives him the means to do so. It also is given a wound so that it has a logical way to turn into MiH Ultimate Requiem in the story. These stands are "Ultimate" because they are wielded by the Ultimate being and grow to their highest possible form because of that, when he uses these stands even if it's just for a little bit it is to show what he is capable of as a Stand User and are in no way useless and are all used to logically advance the plot.
The fact that some guy swam underwater to touch a f**king mine in less then 3 hours before fighting jojo is one of the most bizzare things in the series
Is either A) He prepared in advance touching the mine, which while useful gives him a 3 hour limit to use it or B) He fought them, escaped and decided to go to a mine to have his revenge. Either way I think is fair to assume that he knew beforehand where that mine was and other dangerous things
My favorite obscure stand is "Stand User's Stand" in the game Famicom Jump II: Saikyo no Shichinin I have no idea why besides his name being called "Stand" which makes him memorable in a weird ironic way for me
The mystical Stand User's Stand is definitely the most obscure one in the entire series. It's a shame no one knows about it since it definitely looks like it has some incredibly cool abilities such as.. turning people into stone upon touch..
Scrapper to me, had the ability to make things be forgotten, as in everybody will just think “that’s always been like that.” And by the concept, made things be erased from time (but time doesn’t try to glue itself back together unless on command), basically The Hand done right%
From the main series we also the stand of Part 8 Holly. She is able to see stands and knows what they are, implying that she is a stand user but her ability is never shown
the stand actually terrified me the most was mew mew's stand from part six, i forgot the name but it's the one where you can memorize only three things at a time, what makes it worse is that you still retain your memories before you were attacked prior
@@areit99 ah yeah Jailhouse Lock that was the name of it that stand of that guard Mew Mew the one from part 6. Can’t remember it’s ability for the life of me though
@@_uncredited_It’s ability is to make you only remember three things at a time, that was the ability of Mew Mew’s stand Jailhouse Lock is. I can’t remember the part it’s in though.
Remote Romance is not only one of the coolest looking stands ever, but it's such a amazing way to integrate technology and stand abilities. Making a whole explanation to ground the idea of watching a live stream of a galery and controlling a camera through the lens of a JoJo stand is brilliant.
The fact that araki goes out of his way to creat non canon stands for other media is why he’s probably my favourite mangaka. Brilliant video as always 💙
Joy Division definitely was obscure enough to be very interesting to check out more. Very nifty stand ability. Also Jorge Joestar sounds really really cool i like the idea of movie and show names as well as the different stands and adaptable abilities.
At the beginning of this video, it was mentioned that the main series has about 150 stands. I would be interested in a video that counts how many stands exist that were either created by or officially acknowledged by Araki, such as through artwork or through appearing in media that Araki helped work on.
2:32 People think a non-living thing can't have a stand, but that rule has never been established. People can't believe that Jonathan's corpse could have a stand, but at the same time don't wonder how Superfly exists. The tower is an inanimate object, which is not alive, just like Jonathan's corpse.
I mean, sure, but it's not like this is a regular occurrence either, since Dio is a vampire, and in part one he was even able to zombify age old people like Bruford and Tarkus. Damaging the brain (although, in this case it'd actually be Dio's) sufficiently does the trick well enough, but they did even make the point of dusting him afterwards anyway. I could see Dio taking over Jonathan's body, shortly after death at that, as forcing the soul to linger in the body thanks to his immortality. Dio may be undead but he himself is still quite alive.
2 года назад+39
Shakedown Road in Jojolion. It's a neighborhood that has its own stand
I believe that Jonathan’s stand is always being used throughout the road to Egypt. That’s how DIO always knows where to send his subordinates and whose power is best for the situation
my favorite obscure stand is called Legs, its a common stand inhabiting all bipedal creatures that creates super buff mutated arms for the sake of efficient locomotion. its weakness is that it causes babies to be born prematurely
Araki making the Stand Love Note unintentionally sounds like he's roasting Shoko because apparently the two married people in the story might kill each other to escape their forced relationship 💀
If this video is the first time anyone has heard of Shokotan, I highly recommend taking a look at her Wikipedia article; it's a very interesting read. To give a short summary: imagine what a 4chan user would decide to do with their life if they were reincarnated as a beautiful and talented asian woman and you probably won't be too far off. My personal favorite fun fact about her is that she has her own Pokémon trading card, which means it's actually possible to have the girl who once ranted on television about how much she wanted Jotarou to spit on her on your team in a Pokémon game.
I really wish Fujiko became an ally. Bad Romance has so much untapped potential. Like if you portray someone in a sympathetic light, do they become a better person?
One of those Stands sounded very similar to a concept from the Elder Scrolls series called Chim. Essentially, the Elder Scrolls series takes place within a dream of an all powerful godhead that is above every other deity in the universe and to achieve Chim, a person has to not only realize that they are simply a figment of this Godhead's imagination but also have enough of an ego to still consider themselves real. This essentially makes the person a lucid dreamer within the Godhead's dream, granting them the ability to warp reality as they see fit like how a lucid dreamer could control their own dream. I honestly find it cool that Jojo also has a similar concept as its interesting to consider what a fictional character could do once they realize they aren't real. Considering what a lot of 4th Wall Breakers tend to be capable of, like Bugs or Daffy altering the world around them by drawing or John Byrne's She-Hulk being able to move between panels and even an instance where a super hero used his 4th wall awareness to look through a panel to find his villain...4th wall awareness can get pretty broken.
My favorite 4th wall breaking thing is from the Doom Patrol tv series character called Mister Nobody. He's the narrator of the show and can control everything in it that way, he's also the villain and wants the show to be cancelled. There's a moment when he pauses the show because "they maneged to end the world and I haven't been a part it for two episodes!"
The cool thing about Dolly Dagger is that the way it's user attacks is that he stabs himself first and then stabs another person, increasing that damage by 70%
There are a lot of musical references for this spin offs, i think it's a good idea to do a video about this just like u did with every part of the main series
@@ondururagittandeska2004 I mean clearly not much at least but they mean as though he has the stand of when you can't find something, only for someone to do then so immediately when there was CLEARLY nothing in there and they must've had it on them all along and just wanted to make you look bad from the start Or, y'know, something like that
@@ondururagittandeska2004 or we are not jojo maniacs to the point of looking for obscure stuff like old interviews for random joke stands that add nothing for us.
I think there are way weirder more specific stands. Fun Fun Fun, Gucci Bag Stand, Les Feuilles, Dragon's Dream. But i agree Survivor is cool and one of my fave part 6 fights
I need a spin off manga where we see the AU josuke who killed 2 friends just going around messing up stuff accidentally, meanwhile there's a kira would keeps accidently fixing everything josuke breaks.
Everyone is just saying "oh yeah this stand exist" or "I love this stand" but did anybody notice that at 18:43 he talked about a translation of lisa lisa rey Infinito. Where did he find that?? I don't care if it's not perfect I want to see it!
I absolutely adore Remote Romance. Visually it's imo easily one of the most iconic and stylish Stand designs in the franchise, which is just ridiculous, considering it was essentially just a one-off gimmick for an art exhibition 10 years ago. And it's ability is exactly the kind of weirdly specific, yet undeniably useful thing you want out of a Stand.
Remote Romance and Jojosapiens I feel might apply for the most obscure since they're tied to very temporary events compared to other types of media This was an interesting romp, I think I'd have also included the Scan ability for Gyro (or the guardian of the Saint Corpse's eyeballs) since despite appearing in the main story, the Stand form of Scan appears very briefly like Jonathan's Stand
Wow, I've learned a lot from this video. One of those things is that Gurren Lagann is pronounced gur • uhn laa • gn I pronounced it as: gur • en luh • gahn Or something like that.
I knew about all the light novel ones and most of the special event ones but drama CD’s are always just impossibly hard to find information about so that’s about the only truly original stand I was surprised by. Incredible video. I’d love to see something on Jorge, that book is RIDICULOUS.
Or the guy in SBR who is never shown and neither is his stand. It's just a panel showing someone with their guts out while Mountain Tim explains that one time an emerald prospector mysteriously killed someone and then himself.
@@bibbagamer1284 i was also fully willing to accept there was a stand named Greenland Workers and it was presumably named after some song i've never heard of
17:37 and 18:48 I like that idea. An alternate universe where Araki named his stands after TV shows/movies or books. Is there a rule that states your stand has to be named after music? If I had the talent I would write a fanfic where the stands were named after videos games like Strange Journey or Code Vein.
As a big rock fan, it's really cool to see rock bands/songs referenced through Stands both in the main series and spinoff series, including some of my favorites such as Joy Division, The Cure, Aerosmith, etc. Can't wait to see the new Stands in Part 9 and what they'll reference in terms of music. Hopefully, we get more rock references, like for example, I haven't seen a single Elton John song referenced yet in the series, so a new Stand called Rocket Man or Crocodile Rock would be awesome.
The audio drama is one of my favorite pieces of obscure Jojo media, because Dio was voiced by Norio Wakamoto, seiyuu of (amongst others) Cell from Dragon Ball.
Shoko related stands are fucking terrifying The context of their creation is even more I mean WHAT THE FUCK, A STAND TO MAKE A FICTIONAL CHARACTER DON'T HAVE AN AFFAIR , BETRAING A REAL PERSON
Not to mention she literally said that she "wants to get ORA ORA'd by Jotaro". I mean, respect to her for not being afraid to say what she wants, and I get that Jotaro is a good choice for a fan favorite, but uh... even for JoJo, this is pretty damn bizarre.
Here is a stand i have created using my imagination: Stand name: Tom’s diner Ability: the user can touch any building and transform it into a diner, then he can teleport any amount of people he knows or has seen and can remember in his life to the diner.
I really wish we got a part about the invisible baby, her being an adopted joe star and another female Jojo. Her being a spoiled brat who could use invincibility to cause trouble or learn to harness her power. It’d be fun
Personally I would say it's Tenor Sax, purely for the fact that despite being in the most well-known part, despite clearly being shown on-screen, despite being Iggy's last confirmed kill, despite that happening right before Avdol's death, I still somehow completely forget about him every single time I come back to Stardust Crusaders because he's just that forgettable.
Maybye the Nijimura's dad's stand is the one that makes their house exists on another plane? You know, when Jotaro walked in front of it without seeing the fight between Okuyasu and Josuke. I think this had something to do with the archway in the alley in front of the house
I personally think that the reason Okayasu’s dad survived albeit horribly mutated is because of his stand, which would also explain why we’ve never seen it! Also, if you could design your own JoJo series, what would it be about and what kinds of characters and stands would it involve. I have my own idea though I’ll only go into detail if interested!
An interesting thing with the Gucci bag stand thing is that it likely implies one of two things: A: An artisan with the ability to imbue object with stand abilities through mystical means (like Dio's heaven ritual, and other such things we don't fully understand about stands) B: An artisan with the ability to "enchant" objects using his own stand ability. This seemingly permanent, fluid, and creative ability is pretty unique within JoJo's. And the idea of infusing inanimate objects with stand abilities of their own is like a weird variation of the DISCs. I wonder how it's done...?
"This Josuke Higashikata depicted here is not the same character as the one from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. He will never be seen again." made me laugh a lot harder then it should, and it should really be a meme. I think it definitely illustrates Araki is taking JJBA a lot less seriously then some people in the fandom do, and god bless him for it. Also the extra stands from the part 3 light novel is pretty interesting in that Part 3 has to be the tightest timeline in the original series continuity right? When do they even have the time to introduce new stand battles considering the time limit is so integral to that parts story? Other parts have arcs with a pretty tight time limit but Part 3 it's just baked into the very structure of the story so I'm super curious where in the timeline those extra battles occur.

it's been a year but bro I had the same thought does he touch a mine every 3 hours?
Is either A) He prepared in advance touching the mine, which while useful gives him a 3 hour limit to use it or B) He fought them, escaped and decided to go to a mine to have his revenge. Either way I think is fair to assume that he knew beforehand where that mine was and other dangerous things
My favorite obscure stand is "Stand User's Stand" in the game Famicom Jump II: Saikyo no Shichinin
I have no idea why besides his name being called "Stand" which makes him memorable in a weird ironic way for me
The mystical Stand User's Stand is definitely the most obscure one in the entire series.
It's a shame no one knows about it since it definitely looks like it has some incredibly cool abilities such as.. turning people into stone upon touch..
Would the drawing Araki did of the SCRAPPER protein for CELL count as a stand? Because that one I'd class as pretty obscure if so
Yeah just thought of it too! Looks like stand to me, and frankly, does some magic shit only suited for bizarre shonen
it is a stand
Would also then hold the record for the smallest stand, probably.
Scrapper to me, had the ability to make things be forgotten, as in everybody will just think “that’s always been like that.” And by the concept, made things be erased from time (but time doesn’t try to glue itself back together unless on command), basically The Hand done right%
@@sirreginaldfishingtonxvii6149 I'm not sure exactly how small a red blood cell is, but Lovers is microscopic at biggest
Remote Romance is so cool, I hope it gets used again for another event or maybe even appear in something like a TSKR chapter
The fact that petshop had a “brother” is pretty scary to think about, considering petshop is already a terrifyingly overpowered bird
It never had a brother
It had a parrot what was trained beides of him pet Sound
@@miimiibeschde4818 thats why brother is in quotation marks
Petshop’s offense combined with Pet Sounds controlling people’s movements seems like an instant win button
that's why he wasn't in HTTF. he got banned before the game even released
Remote Romance will always be the best obscure stand, that design is just flawless
Thank you very much for mentioning Stand User's Stand. I'm glad my favorite stand is finally getting some recognition.
I still say that Joseph doesn't HAVE to destroy the camera to use Spirit Photography with Hermit Purple. He's just a brute and an airhead.
I like how after Pucci gets rid of the stand from Fujiko he's not mad, he's just disappointed. (And a bit disturbed.)
From the main series we also the stand of Part 8 Holly. She is able to see stands and knows what they are, implying that she is a stand user but her ability is never shown
A Milagro Man - Gucci bag combo would be really deadly.
It would either be infinite good luck, or the good luck would just allow you to escape from Milagro Man
the stand actually terrified me the most was mew mew's stand from part six, i forgot the name but it's the one where you can memorize only three things at a time, what makes it worse is that you still retain your memories before you were attacked prior
Jail House Lock
@@areit99 ah yeah Jailhouse Lock that was the name of it that stand of that guard Mew Mew the one from part 6. Can’t remember it’s ability for the life of me though
@@_uncredited_It’s ability is to make you only remember three things at a time, that was the ability of Mew Mew’s stand Jailhouse Lock is. I can’t remember the part it’s in though.
@@crablord8499its in part 6, its ability is making you only remember 3 things at once, i forgot the name of the user tho
Remote Romance is not only one of the coolest looking stands ever, but it's such a amazing way to integrate technology and stand abilities. Making a whole explanation to ground the idea of watching a live stream of a galery and controlling a camera through the lens of a JoJo stand is brilliant.
The fact that araki goes out of his way to creat non canon stands for other media is why he’s probably my favourite mangaka. Brilliant video as always 💙
Joy Division definitely was obscure enough to be very interesting to check out more. Very nifty stand ability. Also Jorge Joestar sounds really really cool i like the idea of movie and show names as well as the different stands and adaptable abilities.
I like public image limited and the cure from golden heart golden ring
It's like Schott Key No. 1 but better.
At the beginning of this video, it was mentioned that the main series has about 150 stands.
I would be interested in a video that counts how many stands exist that were either created by or officially acknowledged by Araki, such as through artwork or through appearing in media that Araki helped work on.
I wish Remote Romance was canon,such a cool stand
Me too mate
2:32
People think a non-living thing can't have a stand, but that rule has never been established. People can't believe that Jonathan's corpse could have a stand, but at the same time don't wonder how Superfly exists. The tower is an inanimate object, which is not alive, just like Jonathan's corpse.
superfly is the tower man stand. he said he got shot by the arrow
a better example for this joke is sugar mountain
I just assumed it was a bound stand that lived after its user died.
I mean, sure, but it's not like this is a regular occurrence either, since Dio is a vampire, and in part one he was even able to zombify age old people like Bruford and Tarkus. Damaging the brain (although, in this case it'd actually be Dio's) sufficiently does the trick well enough, but they did even make the point of dusting him afterwards anyway. I could see Dio taking over Jonathan's body, shortly after death at that, as forcing the soul to linger in the body thanks to his immortality. Dio may be undead but he himself is still quite alive.
Shakedown Road in Jojolion. It's a neighborhood that has its own stand
@@emperorcringe-son4023 Sugar Mountain is technically the stand of the tree, and I mean it is alive
I believe that Jonathan’s stand is always being used throughout the road to Egypt. That’s how DIO always knows where to send his subordinates and whose power is best for the situation
my favorite obscure stand is called Legs, its a common stand inhabiting all bipedal creatures that creates super buff mutated arms for the sake of efficient locomotion. its weakness is that it causes babies to be born prematurely
"I always fantasize about getting ORA ORA'ed by him. I even drew a picture."
"Literally, right?"
...
*"Literally, right?"*
Araki making the Stand Love Note unintentionally sounds like he's roasting Shoko because apparently the two married people in the story might kill each other to escape their forced relationship 💀
If this video is the first time anyone has heard of Shokotan, I highly recommend taking a look at her Wikipedia article; it's a very interesting read.
To give a short summary: imagine what a 4chan user would decide to do with their life if they were reincarnated as a beautiful and talented asian woman and you probably won't be too far off.
My personal favorite fun fact about her is that she has her own Pokémon trading card, which means it's actually possible to have the girl who once ranted on television about how much she wanted Jotarou to spit on her on your team in a Pokémon game.
I really wish Fujiko became an ally. Bad Romance has so much untapped potential. Like if you portray someone in a sympathetic light, do they become a better person?
Anasui has some competition
Oh God the thumbnail lmao. The Love Note... that interview sure was something
Illusion ability from part 3. Completely forgot the guys name or if he was named at all. They walked in Dio's mansion and bodied him instantly lmao.
That would be Kenny G’s Tenore Sax
Kenny G. His stand is Tenore Sax
He actually appears again in CDDH
That guy has appeared in a main part and a spinoff, no way he's obscure enough for that
@@ArchviumLiminalium They changed his name to Billie Jean in the Dub for some reason.
One of those Stands sounded very similar to a concept from the Elder Scrolls series called Chim. Essentially, the Elder Scrolls series takes place within a dream of an all powerful godhead that is above every other deity in the universe and to achieve Chim, a person has to not only realize that they are simply a figment of this Godhead's imagination but also have enough of an ego to still consider themselves real. This essentially makes the person a lucid dreamer within the Godhead's dream, granting them the ability to warp reality as they see fit like how a lucid dreamer could control their own dream. I honestly find it cool that Jojo also has a similar concept as its interesting to consider what a fictional character could do once they realize they aren't real. Considering what a lot of 4th Wall Breakers tend to be capable of, like Bugs or Daffy altering the world around them by drawing or John Byrne's She-Hulk being able to move between panels and even an instance where a super hero used his 4th wall awareness to look through a panel to find his villain...4th wall awareness can get pretty broken.
My favorite 4th wall breaking thing is from the Doom Patrol tv series character called Mister Nobody.
He's the narrator of the show and can control everything in it that way, he's also the villain and wants the show to be cancelled.
There's a moment when he pauses the show because "they maneged to end the world and I haven't been a part it for two episodes!"
The cool thing about Dolly Dagger is that the way it's user attacks is that he stabs himself first and then stabs another person, increasing that damage by 70%
And if he infects himself with HIV then his attack does poison damage on top of that 70%
There are a lot of musical references for this spin offs, i think it's a good idea to do a video about this just like u did with every part of the main series
Shoutouts to Holly Joestar-Kira's unnamed stand, a stand so obscure it didn't even make it into this video
Bro I swear hamon beat is making half of this stuff up. Legit rewriting reality to find these stands 😂😂
Or you don't read the wiki or any other outside information other than memes and reddit
@@ondururagittandeska2004 I mean clearly not much at least but they mean as though he has the stand of when you can't find something, only for someone to do then so immediately when there was CLEARLY nothing in there and they must've had it on them all along and just wanted to make you look bad from the start
Or, y'know, something like that
I only know all of these because of my mission to absorb all jojo content possible
@@ondururagittandeska2004 or we are not jojo maniacs to the point of looking for obscure stuff like old interviews for random joke stands that add nothing for us.
My favorite obscure stand is Survivor because it’s so random, imagine the ability of a stand that just makes you pissed ☠️☠️
I think there are way weirder more specific stands. Fun Fun Fun, Gucci Bag Stand, Les Feuilles, Dragon's Dream. But i agree Survivor is cool and one of my fave part 6 fights
I need a spin off manga where we see the AU josuke who killed 2 friends just going around messing up stuff accidentally, meanwhile there's a kira would keeps accidently fixing everything josuke breaks.
Kira tries to turn somebody into a bomb, but it actually destroys and rearranges the person instead
Everyone is just saying "oh yeah this stand exist" or "I love this stand" but did anybody notice that at 18:43 he talked about a translation of lisa lisa rey Infinito. Where did he find that?? I don't care if it's not perfect I want to see it!
10:13 "Crazy Diamond can you fix my marriage?"
Heck yeah!
I absolutely adore Remote Romance. Visually it's imo easily one of the most iconic and stylish Stand designs in the franchise, which is just ridiculous, considering it was essentially just a one-off gimmick for an art exhibition 10 years ago.
And it's ability is exactly the kind of weirdly specific, yet undeniably useful thing you want out of a Stand.
These were some really fun stands. I like the train. Remote romance was a great idea
I think it’s kinda funny how all of the stands in purple haze feedback are named after jimmi Hendricks songs
Remote Romance and Jojosapiens I feel might apply for the most obscure since they're tied to very temporary events compared to other types of media
This was an interesting romp, I think I'd have also included the Scan ability for Gyro (or the guardian of the Saint Corpse's eyeballs) since despite appearing in the main story, the Stand form of Scan appears very briefly like Jonathan's Stand
I HAD AN IDEA OF A TRAIN STAND BUT IT WAS TAKEN BEFORE I WAS BORN
Wow, I've learned a lot from this video. One of those things is that Gurren Lagann is pronounced
gur • uhn laa • gn
I pronounced it as:
gur • en luh • gahn
Or something like that.
Okay, but Remote Romance is an AMAZING idea.
I’ve never been super into Jojo (only read part 1, 2 & 3) but these videos definitely reignite my interest
Fun Fun Fun
I don't remember writing this reply
I knew about all the light novel ones and most of the special event ones but drama CD’s are always just impossibly hard to find information about so that’s about the only truly original stand I was surprised by. Incredible video. I’d love to see something on Jorge, that book is RIDICULOUS.
Amazing content keep it up
Here's a named stand we all forgot existed
Scan, an eye which appears on Gyros steel ball for all of 3 or so chapters
There is timeline where alternate Josuke killed Diavolo trying to fix his friendship
Imma just gonna said it...
Your intro stuck and life free rent in my head...
HAMON BEAAAAT~~~~
I think the Greenland Workers stand. In the anime, it was shown for less than 10 seconds!
Or the guy in SBR who is never shown and neither is his stand. It's just a panel showing someone with their guts out while Mountain Tim explains that one time an emerald prospector mysteriously killed someone and then himself.
What part is this?
Part 5 when Polnareff is explaining the history of the stand arrows
@@jonseon5952 Im so stupid I didnt realise that wasnt the stand name
@@bibbagamer1284 i was also fully willing to accept there was a stand named Greenland Workers and it was presumably named after some song i've never heard of
I thought of Rohan gaining a notebook like Love Note, inspired by TAWOG’s “The Shipping”.
*We need a Jorge Joestar video. Several if necessary.*
Also why does Shoko Nakagawa's art style look like Junji Ito meets 90's Araki?
every stand is obscure when you're not a stand user because all you see is people staring at each other and suddenly getting damaged
My favourite is The Cure, named after one of my favourite bands.
There was a stand that was made for the collab with cell called scrapper
17:37 and 18:48 I like that idea.
An alternate universe where Araki named his stands after TV shows/movies or books.
Is there a rule that states your stand has to be named after music?
If I had the talent I would write a fanfic where the stands were named after videos games like Strange Journey or Code Vein.
Imagine a stand called “Cars” or “Frozen”
That would be funny as hell
There is no rule, the stands in part 3 were based off tarot cards. Even Vanilla Ice's stand, Cream, is just a play on the word Vanilla Ice Cream
So many people completely forget Achtung Baby exists
Yeah but it's not really that crazy
As a big rock fan, it's really cool to see rock bands/songs referenced through Stands both in the main series and spinoff series, including some of my favorites such as Joy Division, The Cure, Aerosmith, etc. Can't wait to see the new Stands in Part 9 and what they'll reference in terms of music. Hopefully, we get more rock references, like for example, I haven't seen a single Elton John song referenced yet in the series, so a new Stand called Rocket Man or Crocodile Rock would be awesome.
Will i ever use this knowledge in my daily life? No
Will i still watch hamon beat religiously? Yes of course
The audio drama is one of my favorite pieces of obscure Jojo media, because Dio was voiced by Norio Wakamoto, seiyuu of (amongst others) Cell from Dragon Ball.
if only kars had cells seiyuu. It would be truly *perfect*
If part 9 does not include jodio and the others finding one of the other gucci bag stands we riot
Dinner is about to be so good tonight watching this video
I cant believe that a single human knows more about jojo than the entire wiki
Shoko related stands are fucking terrifying
The context of their creation is even more
I mean
WHAT THE FUCK, A STAND TO MAKE A FICTIONAL CHARACTER DON'T HAVE AN AFFAIR , BETRAING A REAL PERSON
Not to mention she literally said that she "wants to get ORA ORA'd by Jotaro". I mean, respect to her for not being afraid to say what she wants, and I get that Jotaro is a good choice for a fan favorite, but uh... even for JoJo, this is pretty damn bizarre.
I don't know the degree of intent that she held but I will say it comes out with considerable hilarity.
Here is a stand i have created using my imagination:
Stand name: Tom’s diner
Ability: the user can touch any building and transform it into a diner, then he can teleport any amount of people he knows or has seen and can remember in his life to the diner.
I really wish we got a part about the invisible baby, her being an adopted joe star and another female Jojo. Her being a spoiled brat who could use invincibility to cause trouble or learn to harness her power. It’d be fun
1:15 missed the opportunity to say “the average jo”
Personally I would say it's Tenor Sax, purely for the fact that despite being in the most well-known part, despite clearly being shown on-screen, despite being Iggy's last confirmed kill, despite that happening right before Avdol's death, I still somehow completely forget about him every single time I come back to Stardust Crusaders because he's just that forgettable.
yeah but he seem kinda know, compared to those spin off characters
It was missing something, you know? A stand battle
The most obscure stand is Oscuro, a stand that if anybody learns about it, they soon forget it and it's effects
Remote Romance is so epic. It's even has it's own logo
Have you ever considered Joseph never needed to smash the cameras, and instead he just wanted to be extra and made an excuse?
I'm hopeful of a "Musical References In Bastard! Heavy Metal High Fantasy".
Maybye the Nijimura's dad's stand is the one that makes their house exists on another plane? You know, when Jotaro walked in front of it without seeing the fight between Okuyasu and Josuke. I think this had something to do with the archway in the alley in front of the house
I personally think that the reason Okayasu’s dad survived albeit horribly mutated is because of his stand, which would also explain why we’ve never seen it! Also, if you could design your own JoJo series, what would it be about and what kinds of characters and stands would it involve. I have my own idea though I’ll only go into detail if interested!
An interesting thing with the Gucci bag stand thing is that it likely implies one of two things:
A: An artisan with the ability to imbue object with stand abilities through mystical means (like Dio's heaven ritual, and other such things we don't fully understand about stands)
B: An artisan with the ability to "enchant" objects using his own stand ability.
This seemingly permanent, fluid, and creative ability is pretty unique within JoJo's. And the idea of infusing inanimate objects with stand abilities of their own is like a weird variation of the DISCs.
I wonder how it's done...?
The radio drama and the nes jump game I think are the most obscure for sure, both are very inaccessible to most western fans in 2022
14:03 Holy shit that is interesting, the ramifications of that stand could be terrifying.
Rainy Day Dream Away's chapter was sooo good in the Novel
“Your not dealing with the average Jojo fan anymore dio”
Also tenor sax was defeated by iggy- not Avdol. Give doggo some credit (it’s okay I is an easy mistake to make)
25:56 “I always fantasize about getting ORA ORA’ed by him” LOL yeah I wonder that means 😉
"This Josuke Higashikata depicted here is not the same character as the one from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. He will never be seen again." made me laugh a lot harder then it should, and it should really be a meme. I think it definitely illustrates Araki is taking JJBA a lot less seriously then some people in the fandom do, and god bless him for it.
Also the extra stands from the part 3 light novel is pretty interesting in that Part 3 has to be the tightest timeline in the original series continuity right? When do they even have the time to introduce new stand battles considering the time limit is so integral to that parts story? Other parts have arcs with a pretty tight time limit but Part 3 it's just baked into the very structure of the story so I'm super curious where in the timeline those extra battles occur.
Seeing as there is not a single one I couldn’t name made me realize I’m indeed extremely obsessed with this franchise 💀
Perhaps the stand of the Nijimura's father was a sort of massive regeneration or pain resistance. Just an idea, despite it being unlikely.
waited so long for hamon video😞
