well yea i think most jojo fans on the internet got dios appearance probably spoiled for them in part 3

low leaf
#

that happened to me 😔

#

why I even got into jojo was because of the memes

lucid geyser
#

i wasnt spoiled

#

bc i saw the anime before it became as big as it is now

@distant rivet, Your Hamon Rank is now level 1 !

#

i have had a lot of parts spoiled for me cuz of my addictive meme habits NM_PensiveClown

bright remnant
#

I got spoiled cuz i like p2 the best

topaz flume
#

Bruh

sand anvil
#

what

winged crest
#

VS's friend was a cockhead, and cuz VS liked part 2 and Joseph the best their friend told them everywhere that happens from part 4-8

sand anvil
#

oh

bright remnant
#

Yeah

#

I was like 2 ep away from finishing p4

#

He flat out told me how it ended

#

Thats what pissed me off the most

lucid geyser
#

that's just shitty

#

something tells me that he does other shitty stuff too

bright remnant
#

Yeah

#

But

#

Best not to get into that stuff

lucid geyser
#

is he still your friend

bright remnant
#

No

#

He ended up ditching me

lucid geyser
#

damn

#

u should have ditched him tho

bright remnant
#

Yeah Im not sure why I kept going back to him

lucid geyser
#

well, at least you have learned from that experience

#

you now know when it's time to ditch someone

bright remnant
#

Yeah

wintry rampart
#

So, to people who hate Part 3: is the very slow pacing your main gripe with it? Would it be a great part in your opinion if the pacing was fixed, or would it still be "meh"?

lucid geyser
#

oi a gintama fan

#

i liked part 3

#

but it was more episodic than the other parts, which is probably part of the reason why some people didn't enjoy it

past sail
#

I love it but it I think a lot of people have a problem with Jotaro

topaz flume
#

Probably his stoicness

grizzled linden
#

I would say a big problem with part 3 is the fact allot can just be cut without having ANY effect on the overall narrative besides "oh, we dont get to see a card". I think it would be allot better if larger groups were made of enemies with unique teamups between crusaders with allot more character interactions.

#

I want more of what we got with Polnareff

red raptor
#

^Yeah. Part 3 would be a lot better if they cut out some content.
I had issues with the pacing and inconsistency of enemy stand fights in pre-Egypt.
When the crusaders get to Egypt, it was slightly better.

grizzled linden
#

Allot of people have Polnareff as their favorite part 3 character, because he is really well fleshed out, its so fuking good and its a crying shame its just limited to him and him alone

red raptor
#

Polnareff felt like the protagonist haha

grizzled linden
#

Yeah, he is such a fucking great character

#

He is the focus of SO many part 3 fights

red raptor
#

Polnareff was the main spotlight for those fights

grizzled linden
#

Almost too many to count, he is such a fucking prevelant character

red raptor
#

When Polnareff's silver Chariot impaled J. Geil's tongue, it was super satisfying.

#

Gotta avenge his sister's death y'know. Such a cool way to end that guy's misery.

winged crest
#

Don't cut out content just do what max said write the part with having Crusaders teaming up against a team of enemies

#

Like how we had Kakyoin and Polnareff vs Lovers

#

Technically everyone was contributing in that one fight now I think about it

#

Kakyoin and Polnareff fought

#

Joseph showed em what they were doing

#

Jotaro kept Steely Dan busy and away from them

#

Do you agree @grizzled linden

grizzled linden
#

Yes, and team enemy stand users up. I dislike that the only teamups we can speak of are the Oingo Boingo brothers and J-Geill and Hol Horse, both really not playing to the others' strong suit.

winged crest
#

Nah to be fair

#

For the first like 5 minutes

#

J.Giles and Hol did do really well

#

Hol being a douch and distracting while he set shit up for J

#

Then they split up

#

Because Hol is an idiot and didn't meet back up with J

#

neee be back in a while

grizzled linden
#

Yeah, and it only works so well because there happens to be a fucking puddle there after the rainfall that can have J geill stab Avdol in the back. I think its a way better team up for J-Geill to be with his mother, Enyaba. The dew from the mist would absolutely have reflections in it, so not only can he injure his opponents, Enyaba can actually start taking control of them. Or J-Geill with Yellow Temperance, where it would reflect off of the goo and both would be able to quickly injure enemies while neither take significant damage

gilded relic
#

Forget what i wrote

#

Im very dumb, sorry GioSip

grizzled linden
#

its ok, I was in the ventor

wintry rampart
#

Protagonists arent normally goofball jobbers

#

Just saying

grizzled linden
#

There are allot of goofball jobber protagonists out there, the fuck?

wintry rampart
#

Jobber? I dunno about that

#

They usually goof their way to a win

grizzled linden
#

You will find over a hundred stories where that would be a truth. And I really dont think that commonality of the character architype should be used to prove or disprove their role in the story

#

And is Pol really a jobber?

#

Would Shindler from Shindlers list count as a jobber?

wintry rampart
#

havent seen it

#

But Pol definitely is. Dude licks toilets which Araki went on record as being something a protagonist wouldn't do

#

Pol is literally Araki's "haha" vessel because Jotaro cant be

grizzled linden
#

I guess. But if Araki thinks protagonists cant lick toilets...hes fucking wrong

#

Dude, there was a big thing during the beginning of this covid crisis where people lick toilets to be like "corona virus aint real". You can turn that into a story where one such person is the protagonist.

wintry rampart
#

🤔

#

Ok, but he probably meant for a shounen

grizzled linden
#

YOU CAN HAVE A CORONA SHOUNEN!!!

#

Or even have a typical shounen protagonist thats not too bright do it as like a funny scene

wintry rampart
#

sure, but that would make Polnareff a villain of the week chump to defeat if he's licking toilets

#

lets be honest

grizzled linden
#

Scuuuuuuuuse me, are you trying to imply all toilet licking is bad?

wintry rampart
#

I might be

grizzled linden
#

GASP

wintry rampart
#

lets not talk about this here though

grizzled linden
#

Sure

wintry rampart
#

because I cant even joke about it without maybe getting muted or warned

#

lmao

grizzled linden
#

But yeah, I feel like araki is incorrect in his previous statement, there you go

wintry rampart
#

🤷

#

Jotaro still beats Polnareff in fight amount

#

like I love Polnareff

#

he's my third favorite character in the series

grizzled linden
#

Oh, he does??

wintry rampart
#

but he's unfortunately a punk

wintry rampart
#

Ive counted before

#

but Ill do it again real quick

#

yeah its like

#

13 vs. 9

#

do your own count though, maybe youll give more/less credit to either?

#

I counted Pol for Lovers, even though he was a joke in that

#

that was Kak's glory

grizzled linden
#

I mean, in lovers, he faught in Josephs brain against the clones, so I would count that

wintry rampart
#

Yeah, but Im saying he was kind of there to bumble around

#

Kakyoin had it covered

grizzled linden
#

Ye

wintry rampart
#

He tries

grizzled linden
#

He tried indeed

wintry rampart
#

Im not gonna deny that Polnareff has a lot of spotlight, especially being the funny man

#

but the meme is too strong

grizzled linden
#

He also cut open the vein that they were able to use to get further in Josephs brain

wintry rampart
#

too bad scumbags after money arent eager to share/work together

#

I imagine Araki rationalizes it as them being power crazed

#

Hol is the only one keeping his head in reality

grizzled linden
#

Wait, what are you referring to with that Fred?

wintry rampart
#

What you were saying about the villain team-ups

#

Rubber Soul seems too full of himself

#

He thought he was invincible and was working purely for cash

#

It makes me think of #stone ocean

#

assuming you saw that

#

its like that, just assholes not willing to cooperate

grizzled linden
#

I mean, im not even arguing from a consistency standpoint, its entirely me arguing the meta of how the part is structured

wintry rampart
#

I understand that, Im saying there's character reasons

#

Im not trying to make it a meta convo

grizzled linden
#

Well, then id change them aswell :3

winged crest
#

To be fair you could just have 80% of them be loyal fanatics like N'Doul

wintry rampart
#

but even that guy worked alone

winged crest
#

And the other few be money hungry mercs

wintry rampart
#

Hmmm

#

let me do another quick count

grizzled linden
#

I have an issue with the fact allot of fights are practically filler and there are allot of pacing issues in the part. How would one fix this? Ya team the bad guys up and have characters develop while beating the bad guys up. In this entire argument, I am solely discussing the structure of the part. Bringing in specifics of the characters being gay is irrelevant

wintry rampart
#

being gay??

#

wait what

grizzled linden
#

Im using gay as smurf dont worry

wintry rampart
#

so like stupid gay?

#

like "thats gay"

#

90s gay

grizzled linden
#

No, just a catchall term for all words

wintry rampart
#

well anyway, I dont see how the characters dont develop and fights with a lot of contenders are usually very complicated

#

btw Id say at most 12 of them are mercs

#

nvm, Id say "12 at most"

#

A lot of those Tarot dudes

#

I can assume the 9 gods are probably closer in fold

#

they directly meet with DIO and we know it

#

it seems like the tarot guys are mainly Enya connections

winged crest
#

I'd say out if Tarots, Dan,Enya and J might be closest to DIO

wintry rampart
#

J?

#

oh

#

my b

winged crest
#

Dan because he had fleshbuds in his pocket

wintry rampart
#

Geil yeah

#

and yeah Steely Dan seems like he's close to DIO since he executed Enya

winged crest
#

Ye

wintry rampart
#

Steely Dan is also a pretty critical adversary

#

You can tell how evil he is inside

#

it isnt just money for him

grizzled linden
# wintry rampart well anyway, I dont see how the characters dont develop and fights with a lot of...

They CAN be complicated. I would say the siege on the promised day in FMAB is not too complicated, but involves so many characters getting their moments of shine and finishing character arcs and such. I am also not saying that none develop in part 3, I am saying that I believe this could be a way to pace the story out a bit better AND you can have more oppertunities to have characters developing

wintry rampart
#

what fights in particular do you take issue with?

#

You said you enjoyed Lovers

winged crest
#

Develop Avdol more

wintry rampart
#

that'd be nice yea

winged crest
#

That'd be pog

grizzled linden
#

Yes, Lovers is a continuation of Justice and it shows more of Dios character in dealing with people that are captured

wintry rampart
#

He has his subtle characterizations but thats it

#

Im just saying your solution seems to be "throw arcs together to lessen the length" but there's no promise that would work out that way and Araki was creating a week-to-week battle shounen

worn lava
#

I thought the bud was just Dan being Dan

wintry rampart
#

It was a DIO bud

worn lava
#

didn't he give Dan buds to use

wintry rampart
#

yeah

#

but he was ordered to silence Enya

worn lava
#

oh

wintry rampart
#

Enya knows all of DIO's secrets, sort of

#

a lot of them maybe

#

she knows he stops time

worn lava
#

Wasn't she the one who told Dio about his stand and his powers

wintry rampart
#

yeah

#

She's basically the Avdol of DIO's party

worn lava
#

Yeah, that's a pretty big threat

grizzled linden
# wintry rampart Im just saying your solution seems to be "throw arcs together to lessen the leng...

Arakis mindset at the time was irrelevant. I am saying the product we got was pretty poopy, and I am suggesting change. To discuss your original point, that is part of it, but also to make dio seem a bit more smart than just sending one fucker at the time and allow for more character development. Ofcourse, it isnt necassarily a formula for success, but a good enough writer could absolutely make it work

wintry rampart
#

Id say the mangaka's mindset at the time is EVERYTHING and not irrelevant really but I also dont hate part 3

#

btw if you remember the beginning, DIO knew it would come down to him

grizzled linden
#

What you are discussing is why we got the product that we got, im discussing the product on its own

wintry rampart
#

Enya was the one insisting on trying to stop the Joestar group

#

Like he straight up told Enya he'd have to do it

#

and she was like "no no"

#

and you're dealing with all these crazy stand using psychos who are tracking the group as they move as fast as possible across the globe

grizzled linden
#

They are very easily tracked, as we know

wintry rampart
#

by DIO's Hermit Purple yeah

#

not by these random dudes by themselves necessarily

winged crest
#

All DIO needs is for Enya to phone the assassins to coordinate

grizzled linden
#

They are traveling in a group, CONSISTENTLY

winged crest
#

When he sees where the group is

wintry rampart
#

its 1988/89 btw

grizzled linden
#

So?

wintry rampart
#

no cell phones

winged crest
#

Payphone

wintry rampart
#

just saying

#

and its like, the middle east

grizzled linden
#

I dont...when have I mentioned cellphones in this?

#

Me or erik?

winged crest
#

Joseph used a payphone

wintry rampart
#

You are making it sound like communication is effortless

#

You're dealing with a bunch of thugs given super powers

#

its not like they're a genius crew of assassins tracking Jotaro and co

grizzled linden
#

Do you not think they will listen to either Enya or Dios proposal of trying to take out the crusaders in groups?

wintry rampart
#

You are affording them a lot of credit

wintry rampart
grizzled linden
#

When we have precident that stand users are able to work together?

winged crest
#

If DIO tells them to do something they will listen

#

Or get a massive hole

winged crest
#

In their head

wintry rampart
#

But DIO makes a point of saying he's special for that quality

grizzled linden
wintry rampart
#

The willingness to cooperate is a huge boon within Jojo and sometimes the protagonists even fail at it

grizzled linden
wintry rampart
#

Shooting DIO!

grizzled linden
#

Thats...how does that correlate?

#

How does that prove hes special for trying to cooperate with others?

worn lava
#

Charisma

winged crest
#

He said I like you Hol Horse

#

Because Hol had the balls

grizzled linden
#

Charisma does not equal bravery

winged crest
#

To shoot him and wasn't sweating iirc

wintry rampart
#

🤔

#

Im re-reading the chapter, and maybe Im thinking of the Over Heaven novel?

grizzled linden
#

Yeah...but I dont see how that coorelates with him being special for working with others?

wintry rampart
#

unless the colored scans are that fucked up

#

I hope Im not, I hated that novel

worn lava
#

I'm guessing Time stop has a cooldown right

wintry rampart
#

either way, the ability to cooperate and work together is still a huge quality within the story of Jojo itself

#

otherwise Ceaser wouldnt have died

grizzled linden
#

Like, Hol Horse is a brave guy that does what he wants, but I dont see the relevance to that and him being unique with working with others

wintry rampart
#

Its not even just Hol Horse

#

Like the crux of your huge theoretical rewrite of 3 is the villains not being too scummy to work together

#

so you have to change the fundamentals of Jojo itself

grizzled linden
#

I dont see why they would be

#

No, I wouldnt change anything fundemental at all

wintry rampart
#

well, you arent scummy

grizzled linden
#

How exactly are they scummy btw?

wintry rampart
grizzled linden
#

Morally?

wintry rampart
#

the part 3 stand users?

#

like, the villains?

grizzled linden
#

Yeah

wintry rampart
#

They're scum

grizzled linden
#

Im asking as if I dont know, because I wanna know what you define as being scummy

wintry rampart
#

Do I really need to list off all the screwed up shit they do?

worn lava
#

Call me crazy

grizzled linden
#

Stuff that specifically would make the scummy

worn lava
#

but could Dio be beaten by most of the egyptian gods he hired

grizzled linden
#

Argue as if I have never read jojo

wintry rampart
#

literally everything they do. They kill bystanders, take hostages, are down with torture

wintry rampart
grizzled linden
winged crest
#

Which one's could beat him lol?

worn lava
#

Well

#

they involve him falling for their things mainly

wintry rampart
grizzled linden
#

Go ahead

worn lava
#

but for one, if D'arby Gamer could get Dio to play with him he'd probably win

wintry rampart
#

Its about greed

#

and pride

worn lava
#

Could Dio beat Mariah if he touched Bastet

winged crest
wintry rampart
#

and then I brought up some Stone Ocean stuff

#

you can still see it in the 6 channel

grizzled linden
#

Oh, you actually said stuff in stone ocean, lemme check

worn lava
#

Er, got shocked by it

winged crest
#

Yes DIO could easily beat Mariah if he bastes,things aren't gonna fly at him in time stop

worn lava
#

he's still a magnet

winged crest
#

Time

#

Is stopped

worn lava
#

Magnet

#

trick

winged crest
#

No

urban sun
#

that makes sense

#

magnet trick worked in time stop

winged crest
#

Wasn't the magnet there

urban sun
#

?

winged crest
#

So that Jotaro can move his arm

#

And if it works

#

That DIO assumes it was a magnet

worn lava
#

Actually no

#

With alessi he'd have to undo 100 years

winged crest
#

If Alessi undid 100 years

#

He would be

#

So unbelievable fucked

#

Cuz DIO -100 years is PB Vampire Dio

worn lava
#

Anyways, the biggest flaw with Sethan is that Alessi is too idiotic to hold people in it

winged crest
#

He doesn't need to hold you in it if ur 8 you are already in trouble (unless you had a stand as a kid)

#

And he couldn't get Polnareff to stay in it

wintry rampart
#

I bet Joseph could lower Hermit Purple into water DBM and user are inhabiting and hit the user with a ripple that could knock him out

But he tricked dio into thinking magnets moved him

So magnets dont work in ts

So what about Dio’s head

wintry rampart
wintry rampart
nocturne roost
#

I mean his reflection

wintry rampart
#

I know

nocturne roost
#

But I don’t understand. How does the shadowy face make his head have a reflection?

wintry rampart
#

Im telling you that the point of the shadowy face is to not give him a full reflection but without Araki having to draw a headless corpse standing there speaking

#

It also gives this idea that something might have changed about Dio, but it didnt

nocturne roost
#

Okay I guess I understand

wintry rampart

Its really not that important either, but Dio is like inbetween two forms

i would say part 3 hes sorta bland

DIO isn't bland, Part 3 DIO is still the same character and comes together as a whole

Dio is Dio

Part 3 DIO is even better and stronger, just way more cockier

pure sage

people think sdc is repeated but it was really good imo

robust linden

It's like comparing a character pre development to a character post development

Sorta

#

Especially if they have the exact same personality

winged crest
#

I see Dio and DIO as the same character cuz they are

robust linden
#

They literally are, yes

grizzled linden
#

Hes allot more enigmatic in part 3, I really like his scenes where hes trying to convince the crusaders, when he chats with enyaba, when hol horse confronts him

bleak belfry
#

but DIO just seems more of a blander generic villain in part 3
dont get me wrong he was pretty generic in part 1 and still wanted to rule the world
but his only connection in part 3 is jotaro being jonathans relative, and they are nothing alike

grizzled linden
#

Dio in part 3 is so fkn cool

Well he was adopted

Ofc jonathan and dio weren't alike

they are the same person, but they act completely different

you know how some people in future parts can get a stand from being really good at something

And?

grizzled linden

#

Well not in part 1

bleak belfry
#

his whole thing is that he is very persuasive and a sociopath who manipulates people

#

he understands human emotions, but he himself cannot be human and does not consider himself human

the only person he respected was jonathan, and it kinda ruined dio for me when he stole jonathans body

Why would he do that

His ways are not an error in his eyes

Exactly, yet he became mostly monsterous in part 1, with not too much nuance to how he sees others. In part 3, he absolutely becomes more nuanced in terms of the philosophy he holds dear and how he studies others. He is manipulative, sure, but how he manipulates others and how he talks to others seems to imply allot more stuff, which is why I call him very nuanced. How he uses fear to change the mind of Hol Horse of betraying him was so fucking interestign

And maybe we get parts 7&8

He used fleshbuds on 2 people

Everyone else was either fanatically loyal or in it for the money

eh, alessi might not have been a pedo, but he was definitely a coward

like most villains

but that goes into questions of whether sperm is a separate entity or part of a human

probably

or fetus stage

Wouldnt you just die if he turned you into an egg

yes

bleak belfry

sort of?

#

we dont know much about the limits of alessis stand

What I don't get is why Alessi doesn't just turn Polnareff into a fetus and just step on him or something

#

he seems messed up enough to do that

winged crest
#

He couldn't

bleak belfry
#

it takes time

winged crest
#

Polnareff got out of the shadow every time

so he was going to turn pol into a fetus

but he wasnt able to

worn lava

But when he was able to grab polnareff he just tried drowning him

grizzled linden

He already had a lot of trouble dealing with Polnareff didn't he

Yes, and now he has him, so you drown him

Or choke him to death

shorter then Jotaro?

But "short" is very broad ,especially in the first 3 parts-

Oh shit

My bad I forgot about that rule

#

after finishing stardust crusaders I’m gonna give my opinion on every main character

#

Jotaro - pretty cool but I felt like he didn’t get enough screen time for being the actual main character

#

Joseph - Hory Shit!!! He was funny but other than that just kinda there sometimes saying story relevant stuff

#

Kakyoin - Pretty good character overall, but felt like he deserved more screentime, prob could’ve had enough if his eyes weren’t cut. Also his death, I was spoiled on it, but it still made me tear up. Only other film/tv show that accomplished that was Endgame when Tony died

#

Polnareff - Wayyyyy too much screentime. Like it’s good that the side characters get time to shine but Polnareff got to do it so much he felt more like the main character of the part instead of Jotaro. Silver Chariot is cool though

#

Avdol - Kinda meh. Like he’s cool and all but I feel like he’s the weakest mc of the part

#

DIO - even if it was only a few episodes we saw him he was fucking awesome, even if he killed our boi kakyoin

#

Villains - Pretty decent except for some of the Egyptian god stands, wasn’t really boring but just felt like filler

#

didn’t feel like it though is what I’m saying

Ah yes, because avenging your dead sister, watching your friend who you just insulted, fighting most of the stand users, and defeating a near undefeated stand user who had just killed your two friends is ** c o m e d y**

Polnareff was comedic, yh

But he also had like some of the most serious shit in Pt 3

Not the badass

thick hull
#

might be perception of the user watching so it appears to be something like 5 minutes but in reality he stops time for 9 to 5 seconds

distant rivet
#

I’m pretty sure DIO actually moves faster than he appears to in timestop

#

It’s just that he’s moving and walking slowly just so we can get a bit of downtime in time stop

thick hull
#

wait i think ts is spammable for only a set of times like 3 times cause it appears he's teleporting to jojo when he was in the shop

distant rivet
#

Oh yh true

#

Or maybe it’s only distance related?

#

He wasn’t too far away from the shop and between Jotaro

thick hull
#

yeah

He didn't spam it

ben wanna attack him with me

He stopped moved monologued

Then stopped moved monologued

distant rivet
#

I think talking is also a free action

winged crest
#

Yes, but he was talking after time stop ended

#

I.e. he was waiting to be able to use it again

thick hull
#

time stop seems to have a 5 second cooldown if you stop it early

distant rivet
#

I think so

#

Idk, it’s DIO with a stand that lets him move while people don’t, he’s going to use it for stupid monologues

I wouldn't say 5 seconds

That's not a debate

DIO can't beat Kars

honest flare

Yeah, baka.

graceful nebula
#

Hello can anyone explain me the last part of Jotaro vs Dio fight ?

rich spoke
#

Kars all the way

winged crest
graceful nebula
#

I mean the moment where Dio stopped time for 9 seconds

winged crest
#

DIO's time stop was increased to 9 seconds cuz drinking Joestar blood made him more fused with the body thus letting his time stop be longer

graceful nebula
#

Yea after that i still haven't understand,what Jotaro did so he got frozen

distant rivet
#

Jotaro just lasted longer in time pause basically

#

He was able to push his willpower because DIO was gloating for the 9 seconds

winged crest
#

time stop has a few seconds of cooldown

#

As DIO's time stop ran out Jotaro stopped time and DIO couldn't for another few seconds

glad harbor
#

and how did jotaro defeat dio

#

im confused

wanton turret
#

Star platinum punched the world's knee

graceful nebula
#

Hmm and correct me if i am wrong, Jotaro learnt the Time stop ability when he realised that The World and Star platinum are similar stands ?

honest flare
#

He punched real hard.

wanton turret
#

And plot convenience happens and jotaro wins through that

glad harbor
#

epik

graceful nebula
honest flare
#

The stand stats? They ain’t trolls.

distant rivet
#

People usually just say something that since DIO said to Hol Horse that half his body was weaker because his head was adjusting to it, the time when Jotaro punches DIO, DIO kicks with his leg on the side of the body that’s weaker that ends up exploding himself

#

But tbh, idek

graceful nebula
#

Or maybe it takes time to have complete control over body ?

near starBOT
#

@graceful nebula, Your Hamon Rank is now level 1 !

I’m back, yh DIO needs to adjust to the body in a nutshell

graceful nebula
#

Dio had absorbed Joseph's body but it hadn't showed its effect instantly

But he got cocky and used it against Jotaro

So..How Jotaro obtained Time stop ability ?

Always had it.

But didn't realise before Dio encounter ?

jotaro would use star platinum and since levi isn’t a stand user he has no chance of seeing star platinum

Eh, I would give Levi more than that, if Jotaro had like Dark Blue Moon, Levi would win, because FUCK me, would Jotaro be turned to paste in seconds

No, Star Platinums speed and power is what would give him the win, together with time stop

#

Any blade attacks of Levi would be deflected by Star Platinum with no issue

And Levi would be unable to defend against any of Star Platinums attacks, whether or not Levi could see them, just too fast
