@@AbsoluteUnit333 Makes me wonder how deadly Emerald Splash actually is. We see at first that Emerald Splash literally ripped a hole into Star Platinum's chest, so I wonder what it'd do to just a regular guy.
I like to think they we're just getting pulled up by they're stands, like during the fight with the weird yellow goop guy Jotaro jumps onto a water tower and when he doesn't make it he literally uses star platinum to grab onto it and then he's just pulled towards his stand so I just though "hey same principle"
*Stands can grab and move physical objects, including their users *Stands can fly *Polnareff did this with Chariot in his first fight *Stands can occupy the same space as physical objects *Stands can still interact and use their abilities while they are "Put away" inside their users *Stands can fly while attaching themselves to their users bodies *Ice more or less does this with Cream It would honestly be stanger if Stand Users with ethereal stands couldn't fly! Also, there are not many fights were movement of that type was all that important, the major exception (in Part 3) being Geb, which I accept as it being an advanced technique that Jotaro hadn't figured out yet.
@@droidpenguin3648 and the fact that most joestar's stands has some kind of connection to each other Joseph and Holly have vine like stand and so does DIO or Jonathan's Passion stand. Most of the other Joestars has punching-ghost stand like Star Platinum,Stone Free,Gold Experience and Crazy Diamond all have powerful punches or have special effect when they throw their punches and so does The World with it's very powerful physique
The World upright represents the culmination of a stage or aspect of one's life. Reversed it represents frustrating setbacks in achieving one's goals. The Star represents the potential for growth from the combination of aspects present in your life already. Source: I learned tarort because of Jojo Edit: Now that I think about it, I got Temperance mixed up with the Star. The Star is more about a hopeful future.
People thinking that deflecting Emerald Splash is a contradiction because Kakyoin said no one can do it is like thinking that a villain cannot be defeated because he said "Impossible! I can't be defeated!"
Literally! Loads of people love to pull up stuff Naruto says when he's a spastic 12 year old as if it's irrefutable fact for all time. Unfortunately jojo fans arent exclusive to this level of misunderstanding
@@thebladiator8496 yes, but it might have been instinctive, in the fight with the N'doul you see the same visual effects that Dio gets when he stops time, so maybe Jotaro stopped time accidentally.
This isn’t really on topic, I just find it funny that we have the stands The World and Star Platinum (named after the tarot for The Star) which are these humanoid, short ranged power type stands, but the stand The Sun is literally just a friggin sun.
@@ICTON123 I believe that part 8 Hermit Purple is not the same as one from part 3. In part 3 it had a hamon ability to see future In part 8 it was moving in a different fashion, similar to a Ball Breaker spin, so it seems that Hermit Purple from part 8 was infused with spin, not hamon
"Araki, what are the stands gonna look like?" "Okay, so, you have the majority looking like humanoids, right? Then we have *looking around nervously* a car, a sun, some sand, water, the idea of magnetism, a sword, a shadow, literally just a bird, a fly, some goop, and a book. Oh, also two tentacle/vine like ones, but their different."
Holly and josuke got sick but nobody went to help josuke just because the only person who really knew about her was joseph and he abandoned her. Oh I guess you'd forget about the person you busted your 67 year old nut in but not your daughter? So selfish.. could've at least helped his son.
@@arnaurovirabach-esteve7660 could've probably at least checked up on josukes mom. He was literally sleeping with her and leaving without thinking she might get pregnant?
Only thing I don't understand is, when Jotaro punches the shit out of Kakyoin as a beatdown, why did the doll just fly up for no reason? I doubt it was the air pressure, and Kakyoin and Jotaro most definitely didn't go out of their way to destroy it.
“hey um can you stand still for like 5 minutes” *paints dio* “what the fuck are you doing” holly would die by the time kakyoin finishes the dio painting
I mean, the fact he painted in general and broke Jotaros leg with no reasoning behind the painting would lead most people to believe that he could paint dangerously
Dio loved to experiment with his vampiric abilities. But the chimera zombies really weren't useful so he didn't make more of them, it's as simple as that.
Yeah they weren’t like powerful minions. All they did is look creepy and that’s it. Like the only time this ability was ever useful was 2 times in the entire series. One Being he used this power to attach his own head to Jonathan’s body, and two when he used it to reattached vanilla ice’s head back onto his body after giving him the vampire blood.
I find the whole "whatever Dio touches in stopped time can move with him" thing kinda funny cause if this weren't true I'd imagine him unable to move due to his clothes
I always thought the explanation of Joseph not using Hamon to stop aging was so that he could grow old with his (supposedly) true love in his wife, Suzi Q
y'know, even if kakyoin's painting thing WAS an ability, how the hell would he use it lmfao **in middle of a fight** kakyoin: wait, hold on, stand still. **starts to paint the enemy**
@@jujokotaro4177 I hate how people go around stating it as fact Not saying you are, but there are people who actually think Star Platinum can copy abilities like Boy 2 Man can.

I'm still confused though about how vampire blood works. Wouldn't the person who receives vampire blood be able to regenerate flesh similar to how Dio does? Or is that restricted to vampires like Dio who were made into vampires via the stone mask?
@@mikeymod3665 im not sure, but imo its a conscious act. considering how vanilla ice, even though he was a fresh vampire, did not heal any wounds he received, but kept on fighting, while during jotaro vs dio fight when polnareff ambushed dio and impaled his head, dio probably focused on that area and healed. not sure though, its just what i think and its probably flawed too.
If you can understand the reasoning in that scene, you can understand why Hierophant Green was invisible when Kakyoin was first introduced. It was simply a way to build up anticipation of how much of a threat he'd be and what his powers are. Retrospectively, it's also a good thematic choice given Kakyoin's backstory.
@@sebastien-loikntsangou-kan5264 I thought it was just that Hierophant was busy being in ambush as monofillament wire because DIO-steered Kakyoin is one dramatic dude
Small Brain: No oNe CaN jUsT DeFeLcT tHe EmErAld SpLaSh Big Brain: Kakyoin had never fought other stand users until Jotaro and only met another stand user with Dio so he wouldn't be as good fighting against other stand users and with only 50 days and since he didn't have too many fights he wouldn't be able to master the emerald splash
Then I have a genuine question, isn't stand users suppose to always meet each other through fate? Or is it because morioh is already abundant with stand users
@@Predator20357 Yeah.. Ocean Man is a 90's song and Jotaro was written in the 80's. But i don't think his character would worked If he was only introduced in part 4. Also it would be much better If DIO Stand was Holy diver, i mean his stand is literally a scuba diver 🤣 Jotaro turned into a marine biologist because he though DIO's race come from the ocean, i guess
You know I always thought that when kakyoin said "No can defeat the emerald splash" I believe kakyoin honestly thought that, due to him having his stand since elementary school and since he was always alone he never had anyone who could see heirophant green he just blaintently thought no one could block from gigantic crystals each about the size of a finger going what looks like is moving just under the speed of a bullet.
I think it was said when Dio first took Jonathan’s body he didn’t have full control over it so Elizabeth & Lisa Lisa was protected & Dio need Jostar blood to fully claim the body
Everyone keeps talking about Star Finger, or "they're the same type of stand", but the transitive property works both ways. In the strangest alternate reality, we could have gotten *World Finger.*
@@ctrlaltrepeat245 like they straight up forgot zoom punches exist then when they see a far shittier version they act like a monkey seeing street magic.

I feel like Jotaro could’ve learned Hamon in like 5 seconds. He’ll be like “I’ve already figured it out. All I have to do is B R E A T H E.” He’d probably end up having a finishing move like Hamon Oradrive
Flash rex yeah I know that’s why it would be kind of like a joke thing I guess. Remember when he went against D’Arby and figured out how to play the game in like ten seconds? It would be something like that where he somehow, probably because he’s Jotaro, he nearly perfects his Hamon
Star Platinum wants to learn Za Warudo. Star Platinum already knows 4 moves! Should a move be forgotten to make space for Za Warudo? 1, 2 and… Poof. Star Platnium forgot Star Finger and… Star Platinum learned Za Warudo
4 Moves..? Mf the most Star Platinum has done is extend his fingers and suck in air really hard. Any Stand can suck in air, Jotaro was just the first guy to have a reason to do it.
I do think there are some legitimate uses for this, especially for stands with a long range, or who’s ability might not be affected by size: koichis echoes act 2 for example, since its range is so far he could pull off some assasination type stuff, and fugos virus’s won’t lose effectiveness with size. Granted, you’d have to shrink your stand while hiding out of sight, then have it fly ever so slowly to your opponent, and idk if there were exact scenarios for koichi like that but I still think it’s useful
Dio: Ah, back in my youth days, there were only wagon carried by horses. Now such wagon has machine more powerful and much faster. How time flies! Fans: so you were saying that you never saw a car before, right? You never know what a car is, right?

@@triangulum8869 That may have to wait. They haven't really been fully explained in-universe so giving a rundown wouldn't be too effective at the moment.

But the fact that someone other than the author has to explain (more like defend) it and that theres these moments that the majority of people are confused by in the first place speaks to something outside of everyone individually just happening to be stupid. If you go back and read past parts can you come up with an explanation in your head for why x thing happened? Sure, but it would be a lot better if the author had in the moment of x happening acknowledged it at all, instead of needing to make a fan theory for things every time.
@@Bunnibunnibunni If the author had to explain each and every minute detail the story would suffer. None of the explanations are exactly a stretch. If people are confused about something all they have to do is think about it for a little bit instead of having to be spoon fed everything
The “Has Dio never seen a car before got me.” You know whenever someone’s like ‘back in my day we had to use the phone book to contact people’ That. He’s literally doing just that, and people do this *daily.*
I personally think Kakyoin was surprised that Jotaro deflected the Emerald Splash, because he's never fought another Stand user before that. Therefore, he's never fought anyone who could see the attack coming.
For me it seemed more like a flex if nothing else. H.Green is a super stealthy and assassination-type stand, and Kakyoin is incredibly smart. Being incredibly smart comes with wanting to flex that brain (even if it is partially impaled). If I had his stand I'd probably do that stupid painting and puppet stuff too just to throw them off my case.
@@clayxros576 Especially when so much of Stand fighting relies on the enemy not knowing your abilities, confusing them with paintings and puppets is a great plan. Too bad DIO's minions knew the Crusader's abilities or else we might have gotten more of that from Kakyoin.

I think Star Platinum's range issue is more a "Araki changed his mind" rather than "Araki forgot" issue. Besides, it was just a comical way to hint that SP wasn't really a evil spirit.
TheSunTitan well at first he was going for stands have unlimited range but lessen in power the farther they are thus stands with 5 meters as their range would be most powerful behind that distance but could go as far as the user made them. Then Araki decided that they would stop at that mark instead since it would literally be star platinum and other close range stands would have that far distance but less power trade off and that would be a little bit dull to technically have all stands being long distance stands so that’s most likely why he changed it
Araki does hv a lot instances of bad writing though. A lot of the debunking done in this video is basically giving araki and the show the benefit of a doubt instead of concrete evidence
I find the significant possibility of dio being awake in the coffin at first hilarious Dio: finally I have claimed Jonathans body, as soon as the sun goes down I'll be free to rule without any pesky joestars to get in my wa- Erina: *sends the coffin back into the sea* Dio: wait no-
i feel like most things deemed as "araki forgot" moments are most often more along the lines of "araki just changed the rules later on to serve the story in a better way" moments
I agree. Star Platinum grabbing things from the cell clearly breaks the rules of stands, but this is the very first scene were stands are even talked about. The rules weren't set in stone at the very beginning of part 3.
@@skeleton8559 well he did have a range of 10 meters and he can go thorough walls, so he could have just grabbed them from the guard's office or the visitors room. Like he can go 10 metres upwards and snatch stuff from people walking by
Araki said Joseph is still alive in part 6. When he did blood exchanging, he took a *little* of DIO blood and thats why he’s the oldest Joestar of all time
I like the theory that the stuff Star Platinum brings to Jotaro is from the Police's confiscated merchandise room, that could be near the cells area. Makes sense to me.
It's always interesting when someone has been a stand user for years and has never met another one. Jotaro gets in contact with Joseph and Avdol quickly after discovering it and finally gets educated about the nature if his "evil spirit". Kira only finds out that other stand users exist after 15 years of exploding people, I believe. If we take stand possession as a metaphor for homosexuality, then Jotaro is one who is disgusted by his desires which seem unnatural to him. Then he end up finding a community of similar people and is no longer an outcast. The same is true for Kakyoin. He finally finds a group of people who underSTAND him, and thus his last 50 days are the happiest of his life.
Araki does hv a lot instances of bad writing though. A lot of the debunking done in this video is basically giving araki and the show the benefit of a doubt instead of concrete evidence
And remember also during Polnareffs introduction, when he just has SC lifting him up but he looks like he‘s floating even to all the other stand users present, until they „look hard enough“ and see it?
@@genericidiot8091 clearly not the case, cause, it´s lifting up Polnareff by that point, who is stationary. He even says something like: "Look with your third eye" It was still the very beginning of stands, and all the rules weren´t completely in place yet.
@James Merritt maybe cause Jotaro didn´t notice hierophant green they decided not to show it to keep up the mystery longer Or as I said, it was at first more of an idea that you had to concentrate to see stands Remember also how when Avdol first sees SP, he says how it must be really powerful because it´s so clearly visible, and then that´s never brought up again
I thought that Dio didn't come out of the coffin until a century later because: 1) He was stuck in the middle of the ocean. There aren't many places where he could have hid away from sunlight during the day. Better to wait until something happens. 2) Taking control of Jonathan's body took a REALLY long time. Dio simply was in no condition of escaping.
@@trhytuhtfyjutrfh The coffin's made of iron or reinforced with it, so less "he had no way of telling time" and more "he couldn't even get out if he WANTED to. The pressure at the bottom of the ocean would have been pushing in on the coffin from all sides and unless Dio wanted to check out if vampires can survive violent decompression (protip, that generally results in being turned into paste), he'd be stuck in there until something pulled him out.
Generally speaking I always thought that "Araki forgot" meme was mostly a joke, because even if indeed forget something, I still love the work and it adds to the weirdness and bizzarre of the work.
honestly I think a writer can forget smal details or make light retcons to theire work without them becoming a bad writer for it. Yes, a writer should generaly stay consistent with their rules and having retcons that are to contradictory or big are annoying, but a lot of the "forgot" things are minor nitpics. Personally I am fine with pretending Dio had a chance to get into the coffing and that it then just sank into the ocean after Erina got rescued if it means I get Stardus Crusaders out of it (although it would have been better for the anime to have Erina go into a life boat instead of goig into the coffin, would have completly solved this little plothole). It is sloppy on a writing prospective, but it isn't all that important and it creates a good set up for a well written story, so I think it is completly forgiveable.
It is indeed a joke. It's just that a minority take it seriously, and Hamon Beat waste is time with obvious and/or bad faith argument to justify everything Araki really did or did not forgot for an extreme minor number of people who will probably never listen to him anyway. I will say HB made more harm than good by spreading a false sentiment of toxicity beetween members of the JJBA community.
@@corrinthechocolatine4025 I mean, if people make assumptions about things that Araki forgot, it's okay to point out why they are mistaken. In a respectful manner.
Corrin The chocolatine fr I think the majority know that the Araki forgot memes are really just for fun but some people wanna take it too seriously lol
Yeah, this. Idk, I kinda feel like one of the main charms of JoJo is just the sheer amount of bullshit that happens. It's kinda just fun. We can make fun of the series for it, but like, ultimately I find that even when meant seriously, it doesn't hamper almost anyone's enjoyment of the series. Like, I still think the dio coffin thing is total bullshit, but what the fuck ever, it's JoJo, who cares?? I mean, this guy cares a lot, apparently, but.
I hate people who say that "No Stand can bring life back" is a plot hole when Star Platinum basically just did what a defibrillator does. It wasn't an actual Stand power.
What about crazy diamond bringing back Haiato who had been exploded into literal pieces by killer queens bomb, like thousands of pieces of his head and body and arms and legs? Let me guess, since he had only been in a thousand pieces for a few seconds he weren’t really dead yet.
@@joshuaperkins9344 Few seconds? Try a milisecond. Did you forget how fast Crazy Diamond is? He's deadass faster than Star Platinum. If thats your argument then you'd have to have problems with Josuke punching a HOLE into his moms torso.
Only thing I'd argue that you're flat out wrong on is Star Platinum getting things for Jotaro. In part 4, it's made VERY clear that stand ranges are absolute. During the fight with Hazamada, Crazy Diamond's fist stops at its range limit, with Surface just out of range. It wasn't a severely weakened punch for going out of range, Crazy Diamond could not physically go past its range. The same is mentioned in Koichi's fight with Yukako, when he sends Echoes to the pay phone. He remarks about how lucky he is that it's just inside Echoes' range. And that was before he needed to use his ability to put the dial tones on Yukako's arm, so it wasn't about it being within range for his ability to work, but within his range for Echoes to even reach it. That said, the moment isn't an "Araki forgot" moment, necessarily, but rather an "Araki changed the rules later on" moment.
Savos Mok there’s a theory that I like to stick to, where Star Platinum’s actual ability is to be what Jotaro needs it to be. It doesn’t get a full form until after he sees Magician’s Red, thinking “Oh it’s supposed to be humanoid and buff”. Before that, we see a hand stop the bullet, but that’s because Jotaro needed the bullet to be stopped. Star Platinum needed Jotaro to know he was friendly, so he got him gifts and didn’t truly become a fully realized stand until Jotaro knew what a stand was
@@thefunniestvalentine4789 I think that's it's more the stand is still developing so that's why it can go the distance and such and perhaps maybe that's why he isn't able to stop time until the fight with Dio cause he realises dios ability and because his stand is still developing he just makes it stop time
@@danielshore1457 It would also explain why Jotaro (and the audience) doesn't see Kakyoin attack him with Heirophant Green that first time. He's still developing as a stand user, so it's possible for him to just not see stands right away if they aren't fully manifested.
"That said, the moment isn't an "Araki forgot" moment, necessarily, but rather an "Araki changed the rules later on" moment." That IS an "Araki forgot". What you just described is an "Araki forgot"
When fans say "Araki forgot", they don't literally mean that Araki forgot something, we're just using it as a catch-all term fro various inconsistencies.
that was more due to the fact moody blues takes on any property of the body its replicating, rather than stand shrinking. narancia body got smol, so moody blues got smol as well. thats it
We actually have seen stand shrinking make a return: In Jojolion, Yoshikage Kira shrinks SHA inside of a person's blood vessels to clear blood clots, while they are otherwise palm sized as it was in part 4.
Killer queen part 8 can just do that, no evidence shows that part 4 kira could shrink SHA, just how part 8 killer queen can have more than one SHA. Regardless, stand shrinking is pretty much useless except in very specific situations, like the soft machine fight
The painting with Kakyoin to me was probably to show Heirophant where to attack, or to show us the audience where Heirophant was going to attack. The puppet was probably a scare tactic, or just Kakyoin being showboaty.
It makes sense as a showboating bait move tbh. To someone who'd never fought another stand user and had no prior knowledge of kakyoin's abilities (jotaro) then he could use the puppet and stuff to make it seem like an important part of his stand powers to try and force sloppy moves from his enemy
The strangulation thing is actually easier to explain and makes perfect sense. When you're stand is affected by something, so are you. If your stand gets choked, your neck gets squeezed too. So even if the stand doesn't need air, strangling them still suffocated the user.
I realize this is a really old video and it’s silly to comment this now, but there’s something really chilling about Jonathan’s defiled undead body obtaining a stand because of Dio. It’s genuinely a zombie stand.
@Purple Panther The Tower and the Ship aren't the stands. Strength and Super Fly are bound to those objects like ghosts haunting a house. And since the Tower and the Ship are real, of course anyone can see them
You actually made me understand Stands more, thank you. I still miss Hamon a bit though. When I saw Stardust Crusaders, the change from Hamon to Stands seemed a bit sudden to me, and I was like "where did this brand new ability come from". That not everyone needs Dio and the arrow to awaken a Stand was the key element I was missing. You explaining Tonio and Aya helped to clear up the confusion a bit. As in there could exist Stands for example in Jonathan's time as well, Jonathan just didn't encounter Stand users, so we didn't see them.
I don't really like the idea of people awakening Stands, at least not at a young age. Imagine Kakyoin as a kid, we see a little of his backstory near the end but imagine being a child, seeing this thing that nobody else can, knowing you're not crazy but being unable to tell anyone because they thought you would be. You'd go insane. But you are correct, in canon, we don't see Stand users in Parts 1 and 2 because there is no reason to, however, the truth is, they just hadn't been thought of yet.
I mean yeah, thats jojo for you, do you want science? Do you want Accuracy? Have an arrow that gives you the ability to set anything to 0, have fun figuring that out!!
Something interesting about the "Dio having all stands" theory I realized: Dio does not have every stand, of course, but he DOES have every stand of the joestar bloodline (at the time, because remember that Josuke and Giorno were not stand users during when Dio was alive). He had Star Platinum in the form of The World, since they have been shown to be the exact same stand. He has Hermit Purple, as seen through him using it multiple times. He also even has Holly's stand. During the D'arby the Player fight, when Kakyoin has the flashback with him first confronting Dio, we can see the thorny plant Stand around Dio and Kakyoin both in the anime and manga. People say that Araki has terrible memory, but in reality he's a genius with his story.
Hermit purple is a good stand for someone using Hamon as they do not need to wear tactical outfit made out of thousand beetles or something Also it is like a GPS but in 1980s
At first I thought this series will be you just excusing plot holes, but I can see that's not the case. You just use the in-story explanations and present them to people while evn acknowledging that some of them are silly. Just wanted to issue a quick apology
@@brookmikal Naruto's retcons are actually pretty well executed. There's a video on it that convinced me that they're pretty smart. Toriyama's retcons though? Those are pretty awful.
Simon Delgado he didn’t fight dio he tried to run away but dio got him and took over his brain. They go more in depth on that in the second d’Arby’s fight
When it comes to techniques, a lot of people seem to believe that JoJo should be more like Naruto or DBZ where a character uses the same move in every single fight. Maybe Jotaro just doesn't like Starfinger? Ever considered that?
I love Jotaro's cell stash. Just imagine Star Platinum walking through the police station carrying an exercise bike into Jotaro's cell as the guards just watch it slowly float through the station.
I don't think we ever see the text box appear that declares death/retirement for DIO But it did appear for Johnathan Tho that's the anime, don't know what happens in the manga, haven't checked
Good lord half of these claims can be summed up as: "Remember when this character used this move to get out of a specific scenario and that scenario never came up again?" Silly. Great series so far!
A lot of people seem to forget the entire idea of the Kakyoin fight is that this is the fourth stand we're seeing and it's also the first hostile one, so Araki had the stands design stay a mystery and build it up through Kakyoins scare tactics. Many people do not realize that not every single thing is pure logic, some is to just set the mood and for storytelling reasons. This is one of those instances as the reveal of Hierophant is one of the biggest aspects of the fight as it shows how slippery and undetectable the stand is, which comes back in all of Kakyoins fights.
Yeah, I hate that people just say “Kakyoin had paint powers” or “NoOn e caN deFl eCt tEh EmruLD spWaSh” Kakyoin has proven time and time again that he is a calm and levelheaded person in conflict, but he still has a sense of humor and flashyness. Kakyoin rarely just uses the Emerald Splash in an attempt to kill, infact he uses it to try and attack something that he cant safely approach with Heirophant Green. He used it to save Polnareff from Hanged Man, used it to attack DIO without getting within his Stand’s effective range, and even did it against The Sun to try and deflect its incoming attack.
while it does make sense to use ambiguity to raise tension in a scene like that, i think the reason this misunderstanding permeates is because the concept of stands pretty much instantly conditions you to associate mysterious occurrences with stand abilities. i think in any series with an open-ended power system like this, especially one where new and unique powers are being introduced all the time, you have to be careful with how you convey information about the supernatural elements so as not to accidentally imply that a new power has just been introduced.

He had probably tested his abilities on some targets and was way too confident in how it annihilated them.
When I was first watched Stardust Crusaders. I just thought Jotaro and DIO were flying and I said “it’s JoJo so I’ll just go with it”
Yeah i have a theory for that i think they used they’re stands to jump up lightly but strongly time it makes sense because the raw power of SP and TW.
Your a genius my guy! :)
Wi11ow 8 thanks
I like to think they we're just getting pulled up by they're stands, like during the fight with the weird yellow goop guy Jotaro jumps onto a water tower and when he doesn't make it he literally uses star platinum to grab onto it and then he's just pulled towards his stand so I just though "hey same principle"
*Stands can grab and move physical objects, including their users
*Stands can fly
*Polnareff did this with Chariot in his first fight
*Stands can occupy the same space as physical objects
*Stands can still interact and use their abilities while they are "Put away" inside their users
*Stands can fly while attaching themselves to their users bodies
*Ice more or less does this with Cream
It would honestly be stanger if Stand Users with ethereal stands couldn't fly!
Also, there are not many fights were movement of that type was all that important, the major exception (in Part 3) being Geb, which I accept as it being an advanced technique that Jotaro hadn't figured out yet.
Another thing: the star and the world in tarot reading have very similar meanings so fate already predicted that they would be similar stands
And the fact that Jotaro gained his stand as a result of Dio using the arrow
@@droidpenguin3648 and the fact that most joestar's stands has some kind of connection to each other Joseph and Holly have vine like stand and so does DIO or Jonathan's Passion stand. Most of the other Joestars has punching-ghost stand like Star Platinum,Stone Free,Gold Experience and Crazy Diamond all have powerful punches or have special effect when they throw their punches and so does The World with it's very powerful physique
Now this is one hell of a stretch
Also one of Jotaro's first actions is catching a bullet at point blank range. The same exact thing Dio did to find out his stand.
The World upright represents the culmination of a stage or aspect of one's life. Reversed it represents frustrating setbacks in achieving one's goals.
The Star represents the potential for growth from the combination of aspects present in your life already.

This isn’t really on topic, I just find it funny that we have the stands The World and Star Platinum (named after the tarot for The Star) which are these humanoid, short ranged power type stands, but the stand The Sun is literally just a friggin sun.
Are ya winning Sun?

@@ICTON123 I believe that part 8 Hermit Purple is not the same as one from part 3.
In part 3 it had a hamon ability to see future
In part 8 it was moving in a different fashion, similar to a Ball Breaker spin, so it seems that Hermit Purple from part 8 was infused with spin, not hamon
Araki himself just thought it'd be funny if The Sun was as literal as it gets.
"Araki, what are the stands gonna look like?"
"Okay, so, you have the majority looking like humanoids, right? Then we have *looking around nervously* a car, a sun, some sand, water, the idea of magnetism, a sword, a shadow, literally just a bird, a fly, some goop, and a book. Oh, also two tentacle/vine like ones, but their different."

The reason the stand was invisible in the scene of Star Platinum beating up the shark is because it was meant to represent what a non-stand user saw
yes, it's Anne's POV (idk if that's how u spell her name :v)
If you can understand the reasoning in that scene, you can understand why Hierophant Green was invisible when Kakyoin was first introduced.

I think Star Platinum's range issue is more a "Araki changed his mind" rather than "Araki forgot" issue. Besides, it was just a comical way to hint that SP wasn't really a evil spirit.
TheSunTitan well at first he was going for stands have unlimited range but lessen in power the farther they are thus stands with 5 meters as their range would be most powerful behind that distance but could go as far as the user made them. Then Araki decided that they would stop at that mark instead since it would literally be star platinum and other close range stands would have that far distance but less power trade off and that would be a little bit dull to technically have all stands being long distance stands so that’s most likely why he changed it
Araki does hv a lot instances of bad writing though. A lot of the debunking done in this video is basically giving araki and the show the benefit of a doubt instead of concrete evidence
Mak Chot literally. Most of these are “it’s not an Araki forgot they just changed their mind” excuses

Easier explanation, all that stuff was smuggled by the surrounding cell mates so it fits the two meter range

i feel like most things deemed as "araki forgot" moments are most often more along the lines of "araki just changed the rules later on to serve the story in a better way" moments
I agree. Star Platinum grabbing things from the cell clearly breaks the rules of stands, but this is the very first scene were stands are even talked about. The rules weren't set in stone at the very beginning of part 3.
Yea, but you know that changing the rules is what people mean when they say araki forgot.

i cried when he and avdol died
Well they did tell him to wait outside but he refused......
* kik * * splatt *
He did go home, he went to hecc
Iggy, Avdol, and Kakyoin missed the last train home :(
I think the reason Kakyoin said no one can deflect the emerald splash because at that point the only other person he met with a stand was DIO
Fun fact: when Kakyoin has never fought a stand user, so the only people that couldn’t deflect it were his bullies.
It's always interesting when someone has been a stand user for years and has never met another one. Jotaro gets in contact with Joseph and Avdol quickly after discovering it and finally gets educated about the nature if his "evil spirit".
Kira only finds out that other stand users exist after 15 years of exploding people, I believe.
If we take stand possession as a metaphor for homosexuality, then Jotaro is one who is disgusted by his desires which seem unnatural to him. Then he end up finding a community of similar people and is no longer an outcast. The same is true for Kakyoin. He finally finds a group of people who underSTAND him, and thus his last 50 days are the happiest of his life.
@@cutecommie What?

When "we" don't see stands it means the scene is shown from common people's perspective, who can't see stands.
Isn't it obvious?
And remember also during Polnareffs introduction, when he just has SC lifting him up but he looks like he‘s floating even to all the other stand users present, until they „look hard enough“ and see it?
@@koryfredrick1164 that was because silver chariot was moving so fast they couldn't see it
@@genericidiot8091 clearly not the case, cause, it´s lifting up Polnareff by that point, who is stationary. He even says something like: "Look with your third eye"
It was still the very beginning of stands, and all the rules weren´t completely in place yet.
Saves budget
@James Merritt maybe cause Jotaro didn´t notice hierophant green they decided not to show it to keep up the mystery longer
Or as I said, it was at first more of an idea that you had to concentrate to see stands
Remember also how when Avdol first sees SP, he says how it must be really powerful because it´s so clearly visible, and then that´s never brought up again
I thought that Dio didn't come out of the coffin until a century later because:
1) He was stuck in the middle of the ocean. There aren't many places where he could have hid away from sunlight during the day. Better to wait until something happens.
2) Taking control of Jonathan's body took a REALLY long time. Dio simply was in no condition of escaping.
Yeah, not to mention dio had no way of telling time, esp if he was to deep
@@trhytuhtfyjutrfh The coffin's made of iron or reinforced with it, so less "he had no way of telling time" and more "he couldn't even get out if he WANTED to. The pressure at the bottom of the ocean would have been pushing in on the coffin from all sides and unless Dio wanted to check out if vampires can survive violent decompression (protip, that generally results in being turned into paste), he'd be stuck in there until something pulled him out.
Generally speaking I always thought that "Araki forgot" meme was mostly a joke, because even if indeed forget something, I still love the work and it adds to the weirdness and bizzarre of the work.
honestly I think a writer can forget smal details or make light retcons to theire work without them becoming a bad writer for it.
Yes, a writer should generaly stay consistent with their rules and having retcons that are to contradictory or big are annoying, but a lot of the "forgot" things are minor nitpics.
Personally I am fine with pretending Dio had a chance to get into the coffing and that it then just sank into the ocean after Erina got rescued if it means I get Stardus Crusaders out of it (although it would have been better for the anime to have Erina go into a life boat instead of goig into the coffin, would have completly solved this little plothole).
It is sloppy on a writing prospective, but it isn't all that important and it creates a good set up for a well written story, so I think it is completly forgiveable.
It is indeed a joke. It's just that a minority take it seriously, and Hamon Beat waste is time with obvious and/or bad faith argument to justify everything Araki really did or did not forgot for an extreme minor number of people who will probably never listen to him anyway.
I will say HB made more harm than good by spreading a false sentiment of toxicity beetween members of the JJBA community.
@@corrinthechocolatine4025 I mean, if people make assumptions about things that Araki forgot, it's okay to point out why they are mistaken. In a respectful manner.
Corrin The chocolatine fr I think the majority know that the Araki forgot memes are really just for fun but some people wanna take it too seriously lol
Yeah, this. Idk, I kinda feel like one of the main charms of JoJo is just the sheer amount of bullshit that happens. It's kinda just fun. We can make fun of the series for it, but like, ultimately I find that even when meant seriously, it doesn't hamper almost anyone's enjoyment of the series. Like, I still think the dio coffin thing is total bullshit, but what the fuck ever, it's JoJo, who cares??
I mean, this guy cares a lot, apparently, but.
I hate people who say that "No Stand can bring life back" is a plot hole when Star Platinum basically just did what a defibrillator does. It wasn't an actual Stand power.
Ignoring Joseph's brain wasnt firing and was starved of oxygen for how long in real time was the dio fight?
What about crazy diamond bringing back Haiato who had been exploded into literal pieces by killer queens bomb, like thousands of pieces of his head and body and arms and legs? Let me guess, since he had only been in a thousand pieces for a few seconds he weren’t really dead yet.
@@joshuaperkins9344
Few seconds? Try a milisecond. Did you forget how fast Crazy Diamond is? He's deadass faster than Star Platinum.
If thats your argument then you'd have to have problems with Josuke punching a HOLE into his moms torso.
@@revolvingworld2676 Idk if faster than Star Platinum in general, but that restoration ability is fast as fuck.
RevolvingWorld he isn’t faster
Only thing I'd argue that you're flat out wrong on is Star Platinum getting things for Jotaro. In part 4, it's made VERY clear that stand ranges are absolute. During the fight with Hazamada, Crazy Diamond's fist stops at its range limit, with Surface just out of range. It wasn't a severely weakened punch for going out of range, Crazy Diamond could not physically go past its range. The same is mentioned in Koichi's fight with Yukako, when he sends Echoes to the pay phone. He remarks about how lucky he is that it's just inside Echoes' range. And that was before he needed to use his ability to put the dial tones on Yukako's arm, so it wasn't about it being within range for his ability to work, but within his range for Echoes to even reach it.
That said, the moment isn't an "Araki forgot" moment, necessarily, but rather an "Araki changed the rules later on" moment.
Savos Mok there’s a theory that I like to stick to, where Star Platinum’s actual ability is to be what Jotaro needs it to be. It doesn’t get a full form until after he sees Magician’s Red, thinking “Oh it’s supposed to be humanoid and buff”. Before that, we see a hand stop the bullet, but that’s because Jotaro needed the bullet to be stopped. Star Platinum needed Jotaro to know he was friendly, so he got him gifts and didn’t truly become a fully realized stand until Jotaro knew what a stand was
@@thefunniestvalentine4789 I think that's it's more the stand is still developing so that's why it can go the distance and such and perhaps maybe that's why he isn't able to stop time until the fight with Dio cause he realises dios ability and because his stand is still developing he just makes it stop time
@@danielshore1457 It would also explain why Jotaro (and the audience) doesn't see Kakyoin attack him with Heirophant Green that first time. He's still developing as a stand user, so it's possible for him to just not see stands right away if they aren't fully manifested.
"That said, the moment isn't an "Araki forgot" moment, necessarily, but rather an "Araki changed the rules later on" moment."
That IS an "Araki forgot". What you just described is an "Araki forgot"
When fans say "Araki forgot", they don't literally mean that Araki forgot something, we're just using it as a catch-all term fro various inconsistencies.
We know araki didn’t forget stand shrinking because we see it again when moody blues is in the pipes of the boat during the soft machine fight
Yes.
that was more due to the fact moody blues takes on any property of the body its replicating, rather than stand shrinking. narancia body got smol, so moody blues got smol as well. thats it

We actually have seen stand shrinking make a return: In Jojolion, Yoshikage Kira shrinks SHA inside of a person's blood vessels to clear blood clots, while they are otherwise palm sized as it was in part 4.
Bruh
Also when Abbachio looked for the balloon deflating guy
Killer queen part 8 can just do that, no evidence shows that part 4 kira could shrink SHA, just how part 8 killer queen can have more than one SHA.
Regardless, stand shrinking is pretty much useless except in very specific situations, like the soft machine fight
@@joshuazeppeli5199 it's still an ability to shrink a stand tho
I wonder if it's possible to make your stand larger
The painting with Kakyoin to me was probably to show Heirophant where to attack, or to show us the audience where Heirophant was going to attack. The puppet was probably a scare tactic, or just Kakyoin being showboaty.
It makes sense as a showboating bait move tbh. To someone who'd never fought another stand user and had no prior knowledge of kakyoin's abilities (jotaro) then he could use the puppet and stuff to make it seem like an important part of his stand powers to try and force sloppy moves from his enemy
Kakyoin just likes to show off
Nice observation.
@@milestone1719 Thank you.
@@sidneyprice5514 your welcome now I will pass by.
The strangulation thing is actually easier to explain and makes perfect sense. When you're stand is affected by something, so are you. If your stand gets choked, your neck gets squeezed too. So even if the stand doesn't need air, strangling them still suffocated the user.

Since when has a non-stand beat a stand?
edit: not by beating the user
You actually made me understand Stands more, thank you. I still miss Hamon a bit though. When I saw Stardust Crusaders, the change from Hamon to Stands seemed a bit sudden to me, and I was like "where did this brand new ability come from". That not everyone needs Dio and the arrow to awaken a Stand was the key element I was missing. You explaining Tonio and Aya helped to clear up the confusion a bit. As in there could exist Stands for example in Jonathan's time as well, Jonathan just didn't encounter Stand users, so we didn't see them.
Jonathan also wouldnt even know if he met a stand user because he wouldntve been able to see them
I don't really like the idea of people awakening Stands, at least not at a young age. Imagine Kakyoin as a kid, we see a little of his backstory near the end but imagine being a child, seeing this thing that nobody else can, knowing you're not crazy but being unable to tell anyone because they thought you would be. You'd go insane. But you are correct, in canon, we don't see Stand users in Parts 1 and 2 because there is no reason to, however, the truth is, they just hadn't been thought of yet.
@@mooganify that..was literally one of the points of Kakyoin’s character. Though he found comfort in his Stand so he didn’t go crazy
I remember there being a theory that Stands are a type of Hamon.

"FATE"
"Understandable, have a nice day"
I mean yeah, thats jojo for you, do you want science? Do you want Accuracy? Have an arrow that gives you the ability to set anything to 0, have fun figuring that out!!
Something interesting about the "Dio having all stands" theory I realized:
Dio does not have every stand, of course, but he DOES have every stand of the joestar bloodline (at the time, because remember that Josuke and Giorno were not stand users during when Dio was alive). He had Star Platinum in the form of The World, since they have been shown to be the exact same stand. He has Hermit Purple, as seen through him using it multiple times. He also even has Holly's stand. During the D'arby the Player fight, when Kakyoin has the flashback with him first confronting Dio, we can see the thorny plant Stand around Dio and Kakyoin both in the anime and manga. People say that Araki has terrible memory, but in reality he's a genius with his story.

Great series so far!
A lot of people seem to forget the entire idea of the Kakyoin fight is that this is the fourth stand we're seeing and it's also the first hostile one, so Araki had the stands design stay a mystery and build it up through Kakyoins scare tactics.
Many people do not realize that not every single thing is pure logic, some is to just set the mood and for storytelling reasons. This is one of those instances as the reveal of Hierophant is one of the biggest aspects of the fight as it shows how slippery and undetectable the stand is, which comes back in all of Kakyoins fights.
Yeah, I hate that people just say “Kakyoin had paint powers” or “NoOn e caN deFl eCt tEh EmruLD spWaSh”
Kakyoin has proven time and time again that he is a calm and levelheaded person in conflict, but he still has a sense of humor and flashyness. Kakyoin rarely just uses the Emerald Splash in an attempt to kill, infact he uses it to try and attack something that he cant safely approach with Heirophant Green.
He used it to save Polnareff from Hanged Man, used it to attack DIO without getting within his Stand’s effective range, and even did it against The Sun to try and deflect its incoming attack.
while it does make sense to use ambiguity to raise tension in a scene like that, i think the reason this misunderstanding permeates is because the concept of stands pretty much instantly conditions you to associate mysterious occurrences with stand abilities. i think in any series with an open-ended power system like this, especially one where new and unique powers are being introduced all the time, you have to be careful with how you convey information about the supernatural elements so as not to accidentally imply that a new power has just been introduced.
