Ok let’s continue
Enemy User: losing
enemy user: iT wAS alL pARt oF mY plAN
It was all part of his plan.
How did Dio even seduced a blind man
hes an extremely charismatic speaker
Yeah and it’s not like n’doul can’t feel
N’doul pleasuring Dio
@wintry rampart, Your Hamon Rank is now level 6 !
Because even the evil need a saviour
Nope.
Yes
He’s just so hot the blind man could sense it baka-kum.
why google why...
~take me by the hand~
Covid ✋😠
Do you have to wear masks where you live!
Hahah fucking nerd ass bitch ass annasui x jotaro shipper,
Because Im evil.
i don't even fucking ship thaaat
ok
Honestly who the fuck is jame?
Ja- mama
@wintry rampart, Your Hamon Rank is now level 2 !
yes ik funny overused
Scary looking face
It's surprising how quick the manga of Part 3 becomes its more consistent art style that we basically know Part 3 for. Normally it feels like it takes Araki a while to adapt like, halfway through the entire part but for this and maybe part 2 he basically made it look beautiful and iconic pretty early.
its weird seeing jotaro smile
it's also really refreshing
I wish they'd adapted his actual emotions more in the anime
Although I guess I don't actually dislike how they had him stoic the whole time either
I cant kick your ass without getting closer
yes yes yes yes
rodorora daaa
mudamudamudamuda
sutapurachina, za warudo
surprise B1TCH
WRYYYYYYYY
and then DIO's head exploded, definetly
definetly?
yare yare da-
no memes.
1 year ago
its 10 o clock fetch my tanktop I HAVE A DATE
polnareff confuse
No meme
What?
Jotaro smile feels cursed
Jotaro troll face
Wait
Ok
Imagine
Bullying a jojo fan
And he hits you with the “next your gonna say” line
And the color pallet changes
Thats a sign you are in danger
hey guys i got better at making za warudo effects
@wintry rampart, Your Hamon Rank is now level 3 !
just put zawado in text to speach
@wintry rampart, Your Hamon Rank is now level 3 !
i get a feeling this image as a meaning
Yeah star playtum literally gets stars in his hair and he is charging his star ball
Its really painful
Is it just me or did the first episode of Part 3 have a slightly different art style than the rest of Part 3? The first episode looked so much better
fixed it
can I send an image saying "I don't believe in DIO supermacy" or should that go in #manga-jojokes
nvm I'm sending it there

why is he crying
I haven't even caught up
what theme plays here
i literally can't find it anywhere
before you say jotaro's theme i mean this specific version of jotaro's theme
Why is it dub
it's alright i'll find it eventually
https://youtu.be/X2fmArRXjp8 @wintry rampart
THANK YOU
VERY MUCH
Somewhat, yeah. It was smoother and had more 3D shots
It just had a slightly more cartoonish feel, specifically the faces
@round hazel, Your Hamon Rank is now level 2 !
Yeah
the line art was different too
thats what im asking
Because dub supreme baka-kum.
probably jotaro hiding but his emotions appearing on star platinum
wait wait, so you're telling me kakyoin's first name is noriaki
yes
Yes
jean-pierre
i
mohammad avdol
okay i actually do understand this i'm overreacting
lol yea
kujo jotaro
yeah ik
@merry cargo, Your Hamon Rank is now level 6 !
iggy
yeah it kinda is
very
Jean-Pierre is actually his first name
my best attempt at spelling stand proud
xd
Stand Proud
Try spelling Crazy Noisy Bizzare Town
imma come out and say it, i ship holly with kakyoin, don't kill me
i used to think smokey was anne 
Bruh
Bruh
i would get it in her introduction but bruh
tho i cant blame you
before i got into jojo i thought avdol was a grown up smokey
lmao
lmao
@merry cargo, Your Hamon Rank is now level 7 !
Bruh
everyone knows oingo is smokey
Ngl, that's hilarious
it is
i am actually not done with part3
i just finished the oingo boingo episode
i thought oingo was gonna die there

best episode
its pretty funny how they lost without the crusaders calling out stands
Hes the real 【Jotaro Kujo】やれやれだぜ..#0420
@merry cargo delete those part 4 gifs
That you sent
No future part stuff and also sending gifs that are literally the ending of a future part's final fight in a chat where somebody who just finished part 3 could be looking is dickish
@slow sky, Your Hamon Rank is now level 1 !
Mistuh Joesturr
Oingo boingo was fire
manga in manga
daniel darby could could since jotaro wagered literally everything

death 13 had a good chance
Dio's curse affected Holly only. How so it didn't affect Jotaro, nor Joseph?
it did
that's how jotaro got star platinum remember
i just finished stardust crusaders and uh
how was it
i think im broken
F
like serioulsy
mentally cuz like
kakyoin my baby omg
and i think i broke my back trying to walk like dio
lmao
It's not a curse, DIO got a stand, due to bloodline magic DIO who had Jonathan's body getting a Stand caused the whole bloodline to get/awaken stands
Holly is not a person with fighting spirit or the will to fight, so she can't control one because she's just a gentle happy lady
Joseph and Jotaro can control theirs cuz they do have fighting spirit
Okay.
Wouldn’t death 13 ironically have won if he healed Kakyoin right away
Huh?
technically yes
but since babies have like 50 iq
He didn’t
btw funniest scene in part 3 is prob jotaro becoming stand
Have you ever thought of what would the final fight be like if Dio would've already merged with Jonathan's body?
part 3-fin
my favorite scene in part3 is when dio hired a sword
and just have be left somewhere in hopes someone picks it up
In a place where farmers are
let alone somebody worthy
yeah it is, but what if something happened to it before anyone picked it up
a fucking sword has a stronger fighting spirit than holly
wonder how the hiring process for monkey went
or baby
dio: yeah just leave the sword there, someone's gonna pick it up... maybe.. hopefully.... make sure to put the sword in a place where nothign will happen to it, just in case
did he look at mannish boy and go "yes kill those 4 men"
dio: so what is your power monkey: ook dio: god damn ur hired, go rape some adolescents
yeah put it next to the nile
Holly, nice lady, doesn't want to fight, is gentle
The sword has no fighting spirit
The Stand is just still alive in the sword
The stand user has been dead for 100-s of years
a fucking sword
Cx he hired a sword
Why else would the sword swear loyalty to dio if not dio going to the sword first
imagine hiring an ancient egyption god
the sword casually strolled up to dios castle
We make our own lore
we can deduce from this kakyoin doesn't have health insurance
work out dem lats
why would he hes like 17
arabic?
Arabic ?
yes
Nice
Someone pinged me. Who was it?
Alessi fight?
or him punching Rubber Soul while Star Platinum was holding him?
I wonder if rusting killed anubis
Isn’t anubis someone literally putting their heart and soul into their work
Yeah
But if you make something like that, you better put the ultra mega fuckin chadica of metals and work into that thing
we can deduce from this kakyoin doesn't have health insurance
@merry cargo it’s a different country, so probably
by that i mean its literaly written down
Oh
Noriaki Kakyoin
no health insurance lmfao
I don’t know how to read egyptian/arab/whatever that is
To be honest, healthcare wouldn't be too much of a problem to the Crusaders
SPWF exists,and Joseph is like
filthy fucking rich
I meeaaan,
We've seen that if someone interacts with something in stopped time, it works
So probably not
Legend sais he's still typing till this day
|| ily bro no homo ||
It looks like you need to directly interact stuff for it to do something in timestop and I don’t think controllers are in direct contact with the console
Look it took a while to figure out how to put it
I meeaaan,
You can touch the screen/PS with your foot
and play the game
or maybe something like
"timestop rig"
At the same time that would be a mess to deal with for the game
Yes,but again,
Imagine messing with people in-game in timestop
Like, one second they're fighting you and the other they're fucking dead
That would mess up the game so badly
Would they be desynced
Not blatantly just
Y'know
messing around
pushing people around ever so slightly
Or maybe,
if you're a psycho
put someones head in place of their monitor
and watch everyone scream in terror
magnets dont work during timestop
yea
Then dio was double fooled
Because he should of know
That magnets don’t work during timestop
Then again dio isn’t the type of person to trust it
then explain this
DIO is interacting with it, so it works
otherwise the magnets were a ploy
THOUGH since Jotaro can move in stopped time, maybe the magnets WERE working to begin with because Jotaro was interacting with the one?
No matter what, DIO was tricked
Jotaro was fooling dio so that dio would get closer to him
He was just twitching his fingers to gauge how much he could move in time stop
makes sense
did you ever notice how the DIO fight in 3 is kinda just a longer Straights fight from 2
they ruin this store front and break a bunch of glass, ends on a bridge, fight is just some vampire with a fancy power they're eager to use and Jojo outwits him using modern tricks
and Jotaro doesn't even start fighting DIO until like 10 chapters into the arc
so technically his fight only lasts 8
thats only 3 more than Straights
is that all DIO is really worth? 3 more chapters than Straights
At least Joseph pulled the Your Next Line is joke on Straizo.
And also did the nigerundayo Smokey.
Im just saying from a certain perspective, Jotaro's story ends where Joseph's just started
OMG and people still reject the foreshadowing too despite that
Which foreshadowing is being rejected
I think foreshadowing was the wrong word
But Im talking about DIO and The World's durability dropping when he became one with Jonathan
because, as we know, a vampire with a body that can breathe ripple can do so to kill itself and its not like Dio would know what that feels like
Joseph fought a vampire that didn't even fully explore his own abilities while Jotaro had to fight a vampire with an OP stand that practiced and perfected time stop.
he knew Straights was coming
and joseph got tricked by a mirror in part 3
That moment when young Joseph got a Tommy Gun out of his a-
Then fell for countless Joseph tricks throughout the fight. Somehow, Straizo failed to evade getting grenades snuck under his scarf.
DIO fell for "play dead" like a bear
If you guys didn't realize.
I have a funny joke for this, but it would get deleted 😔
Jonathan is the only Joestar that got called JoJo by DIO, that means Dio had respect to him even though they were enemies.
joseph and polnareff fell for oingos disguise
they grew up together
Ey man, that play dead trick was actually really good. Especially when Jotaro stopped his own heart to get it across. That trick was more reasonable than somehow getting grenades snuck on you.
Jojo is like a cute nickname
Yeah, but basically almost every Joestar gets called JoJo.
and yeah, it was more intricate than that
Joseph kinda just makes the things happen
he's just constantly slight of handing shit
Joseph tricks everyone
Kars used Lisa Lisa as a guitar-
even kars has a silly side
win wi win wi wi win
Anyone remembers the sound The World made while stopping time?
probably not the same one, and Cars was just at the end of it in that situation
He went crazy
Every JoJo main antagonist goes crazy at the end.
Dio: setting place on fire
Kars: using Lisa Lisa as a guitar and following Joseph to a volcano
DIO: repeating that he's Dio
Kira: talking about how he got excited for seeing Mona Lisa's hands.
Diavolo: death
I dont think Diavolo really went any crazier than he was already
uh oh
we cant talk about that though
Diavolo: Hi- dies
Dio can't use hamon wut?
He doesn't know how to
Kira just wanted a handjob
hes directly connected to the two biggest hamon batteries ever though
😳

he doesn't know how to hamon breath
btw wdym part 6 reveal its been here for a while
To finish watching?
yeah
Polnareff
“To beat me you must approach me”
IF Dio was using hamon breath
He'd die instantly
I dont know, straights is a hamon master so its only natural he'd make it as quick as he did
DIO just dropped in durability to the point where he popped into a blood fountain
Eh?
Hamon melts vampires, hamon inside a vampire insta kills them, as seen by Straizo
DIO does not know hamon breathing cuz nobody could teach him that nor would he want to learn because Hamon for vampire = bad
DIO's durability didn't drop Jotaro busted holes in the world several times
weight loss crusaders
araki rlly should have stuck to iggy's old design
he looks so weird with a human face now
I mean, if he started off with a human face it wouldnt be AS weird
no
Araki can't draw dogs for shit
And if the dog is a main character who he's drying to show the characters thoughts n stuff a human face works better
Also nah Araki loves dogs he has villains kill em cuz that makes us hate the villains more
A human face can convey more emotions than a dog face
Ngl
The Fool is one of the best defensive stands ever
The damage it gets isnt reflected to the user, and its s a n d
And its most likely visible to non stand users
it just looks weird to see a dog's face replaced by a human like face
SDC has some of the most OP stands
it makes me uncomfortable
DIO's durability clearly dropped as he failed to trade blows by hand after becoming one with Jonathan
it didn't
It did
DIO was throwing hands as fast as a stand while he was hitting the road roller
When the fuck did he fail to trade blows by hand
Well, it was starting out on a new power system so it's quite understandable.
This
Also, he punched the emerald splash away
We clearly saw Jotaro struggle to deflect it, but DIO just
Slaps it away
literally the first time it happens after he drinks Joseph
This is not the first time the world gets fucked up by Star Platinum's punches
I think youre forgetting that Star Platinum is the physically strongest stand in jojo
Getting fucked by SP doesnt mean youre weak
DIO held up quite well
If he used it, he'd die, instantly
Vampire + Hamon = bad idea
because vampires are allergic to ham
yes
Ham and the word on
So he'd die
Straights didnt die instantly
.......
I dunno why you have to bend the facts
HE wasn't hamon breathing
Straizo
lmao
Did we see Straitz use it WHILE he was a vampire?
DIO using it as a vampire would off him
Nah man he was just breathing
dio was basically worn out
his legs were broken n shit
thats why the last punch was fatal while earlier punches were not
Straizo wanted to life forever, using hamon would kill him, so he wasn't using hamon breathing
took two pages, and he talked while doing it
Cuz you know it's something you can decide not to do
but he just drank Joseph and said he felt great
He still died
not willingly
no that was earlier
He doesn't even know how to
after that he got beaten up by jotaro with his legs all broken n shit
the page I posted of his hand getting busted is right after
oh right
exactly, so how would he know
Jonathan had potential for hamon before Zeppeli tought him
Elaborate
He wouldn't
@clever coral, Your Hamon Rank is now level 2 !
Jonathan had his diaphragm adjusted, actually
It's a specific fucking way of breathing that needs to be tought
taught*
Just having a body that is compatible with hamon does not mean you just use it
well, he is
cuz he became one with Jonathan like an idiot
after its durability dropped
he inherited it didn't he?
AH yes surviving = idiocy
He was fucked if he didn't drain Joseph
Part 3?
yes, part 3
i am?
Are you not?
lmao
wait who are we talking about again
LMAO
Mood.
DIO not using hamon cuz he can't cuz he doesn't know it and also would die instantly if he was
He'd explode
yeah that makes sense
then why did his durability drop
It did
Jotaro
visibly
Angrier
on page
didn't jotaro punch the leg that was injured previously?
And harder
or no?
lmao thats what you really believe?
Oh and,
DIO very much could've tanked that blow if it was his body and not his stand that was struck.
DIO got his head caved in by a punch and had holes busted into him.
He got his 'weak' side hit, and it was already established that your stand dies = you die
You just take Jotaro's word for it?
Well you are pulling a headcanon out of your ass
The World exploded, so did DIO
why did his right hand burst apart
Nah, this is just the way it be
I know its popular to undermind the way Araki tells a story here
but its obvious
It was hit by the strongest stand there is-
I have the cool collected guy who held back for most of part 3 for mostly any enemy he fought who just had his friends killed and went all out
did burst apart earlier
you sound like the ideal reader
Jotaro wasnt looking to cap DIO at the start, and he definitely wasnt as pissed as he was then
:/
I really doubt that
the reason he went on his bizarre adventure was to kill DIO to save his mom
No, but Im telling you that anger and adrenaline boosts strength
so Jotaro is the hulk
I dunno, I think its pretty clear why DIO lost
and its because hes a jackass
Also let's not forget that after half the fight Jotaro witnessed Polnareff get fucked, possibly assuming he died, and watched his grandpa "die"
So ofc he'd want to shread DIO even more
Oh yeah because adrenaline is a supernatural hormone that was invented bt stan lee
thats nice, does Jotaro have a super power that increases his strength through anger?
...
I dont recall that being established
I do remember hamon breathing destroying a vampire from within being established
in a very similar fight
No but the human body works 'better' while youre fueled by adrenaline
💁♂️
you're not gonna punch it as hard if you were really pissed off
i used the wall as an example
But it depends on the power of the punch, it would still break but would still cause damage to the wall. If you were just vibing you'd have no effect on that same wall.
Jotaro vs mostly anybody, beats the shit out of them
But doesn't kill em
Jotaro vs DIO
he killed the fake captain
Are people really saying DIO's durability dropped? Tf?
I will kill you you vampire motherufcker
my point is, if you punch something really hard if you're at a normal mood, you wouldn't punch it as hard if you were really pissed off and punched the wall at full strength
Not people, just fred
It did
Jotaro literally punched through the World several times
Only him
only broke his fist post-drink
traded direct blows
it isnt only me who thinks so tho
Ive had this discussion before
Are we forgetting that Star Platinum donuted The World? Then broke the stand's fist entirely even when DIO was at his full high?
nice
That's cringe
Jotaro was punching flesh, not a wall. And in most cases, your brain has a cap on your muscles so you dont shred them. A 16 year old girl lifted a truck in a situation of panic to save her dad from under it.I can see a superhuman ghost blowing someones hand in a similar situation.
lmao
only at full high* suspiciously
No
before then The World's fists did not break
It donuted the world before
what is full high dio
SP being able to punch through The World's chest by surprise doesnt really matter
But The World got its body broke before High DIO though
Eh?
It does...it shows that SP was able to damage TW before
It does matter, since it shows Star Platinum broke through The World
TW wasnt invincible before DIO sucked joseph
And? The World could trade direct blows with Star Platinum and not lose his hands before
thats what changed
So it doesnt matter
TW isnt invincible. It can break, and DIO might have punched with less strength and speed than SP at the time
Why would he? He was crazy high
Which is likely since that was the angriest eeve seen Jotaro
I mean, Jotaro doesnt actually get angry that often so yea
Simple. Jotaro had full anger and bloodlust, so he concentrated all of Star Platinum's ridiculous strength that has been shown to donut The World... into one blow
It wasn't some bullshit hamon thing
nah, his durability dropped due to his complete link with Jonathan
And explode as soon as he drained Joseph
lmao what
Why are we posting headcanons now
Shoves clawed finger into brain
Durability dropped
headcanon is when you try to tell me Jotaro gets magic strong off anger
Ironically DIO would be at his BEST due to having Jonathan's body. His time stop literally increased
You're deflecting
Jotaro was stronger because of anger, because he wasn't holding back
It ain't a headcanon man it's a natural occurrence.
Like he usually is
Its basic fucking knowledge tgat adrenaline makes you at least a little fucking bit stronger
uh-huh
bro can you like maybe consider scrolling up and reading our 100 explanations for that
Do you know hiw panic fucking works?
panic?
Apparently not
Which is why DIO also got his stand torn through by Star Platinum in one blow too?
I dont think Jotaro was in a panic
Panic and anger aren't real we are making em up
I already told you why this doesnt matter
That wasn't a good explanation.
His grandpa died, he almost died, he thought Polnareff died, and Kakyoin was dead
Oh yeah, he doesnt panic
I sense an incoming mute though because Im going to tell you that part 3 is over your head if you dont understand this
Why eould he?
sorry
Star Plat one of the most physically strong stands in parts 3-6 if let lose to hit with all it's might
DIO died cuz hamon
Great logic
DIO died cuz stupid
Eh?
He's a dummy

@clever coral, Your Hamon Rank is now level 3 !
Star Platinum when concentrating on full bloodlust can tear through The World. Star Platinum is stronger than The World. Jotaro wasn't at full bloodlust. Compare how Jotaro walked over to DIO to Jotaro literally RUNNING at DIO.
"concentrating on full bloodlust" I remember when Jotaro was thinking that lol
"I need to concentrate on full bloodlust"
He does say himself that he needs one hit to kill him
its like going super saiyan
No
not at all
goku doesn't have to be angry to transform he just has to be kind of serious
You and your concedencing attitude is why discussion with you is insufferable
ironic
Deflection, I didn't directly bring up past behavior and false equivalences ]
Id rather argue with Lisette than with you lmfao. She can at least admit when shes wrong
Im not wrong tho
You are.
Im not
compelling
DIO did not die to hamon, you're literally wrong about that
he was weakened by it
He would be DEAD
and Jotaro made him a blood fountain
sure did
Ye
Oh, yeah, he flung a steam roller towards a high schooler with no effort
well, sorta, they still needed to fry him
But he got weaker
but she never is :P
Why do you think this is true Fred?
its established and explains why The World's durability dropped
Source?
Wait, it dropped?
@grizzled linden, Your Hamon Rank is now level 18 !
If DIO uses Hamon without realising as soon as he becomes one with Jonathan he will do a Straizo and explode as soon as he becomes one with him
When did it drop?
He kept up with his own stand while punching the steam roller.
I dont remember 'jacket DIO' doing that
after he drank Joseph
Oh yeah
Post the direct stuff that showed the durability drop
None of these are single, concentrated punches to TW's hands, except that last one
Jotaro was trying to beat the shit out of DIO in both, yes
But he wasnt going for one shot blows until he sucked Joseph
they traded hundreds of unseen blows tho
So instead of stand stats or dialogue, we're going off of assumptions? Because we can also assume that it was Jotaro being more accurate and stronger in calculative desire to fucking murder DIO in this state.
let's not forget that wounds make your body weaker obviously
But DIO healed them
not immediatley
hold on tho, what are The World's stats
when jotaro kicked dio's leg when he stopped time
his leg was still injured at the last clash between jotaro and dio
A in everything except range, precision and potential
It has a B in precision, while SP has an A
They're an okay indicator sometimes, like how a certain character's development potential drops throughout a part.
but then there's the Hol Horse situation
where Precision seems to be based off Hol's aim
also i just realized star platinum punches the world's hand in the manga but punches his leg in the anime
Surviving = stupidity
you dont get dumber
Good to know
He could have survived with ANYONE'S body
and avoided this fate
so uh
stupid as fuck
But no, has to be Jonathan. my adversary, my rival, my brother, etc
lmao
if he took some random dude's body it would have conformed to Dio eventually
like ACDC claimed his arm would fill out
Wow what a fool to become one with Jonathan's body
Look at the guy who's stupid for surviving
really fucking dumb
but he made the mistake 100 years ago
BUT he could have fixed it
It's only a mistake in your headcanon
if he wasn't on a burning ship yeah probably
No it isn't
if he didnt connect himself to Jonathan, Jotaro and Joseph dont get stands and never show up
Dio dumb
Then we don't have an engaging story. And how would DIO know that the arrow connects to bloodlines?
That is hindsight 20/20
but at the same time dio hadn't taken anyone's body before he can't just realize that he can switch to a less weaker body to survive a fight with his nemesis' grandson's grandson he didn't even know existed
And how the fuck would he know that anybody is getting off that boat
Nobody was supposed to get off the boat
He was gonna kill everyone
he could have never gotten on the boat
And he almost bloody well did
he could have vanished
taken w/e loser corpse, make it his own, hide and grow in power
then fight Jonathan again
And
bruh dio can't predict the future
Lose....
you're acting like he knew his plan to take jonathan's body wouldn't work out 100 years later in a fight with a person he didn't know existed
and his plan wasn't to stay underwater for 100 years
His plan worked
not even ||part 6 spoilers|| got what he wanted ultimately
He killed his enemy
He got a new body
he was just picked up from the ocean
He won
He beat his enemy
But his objective was to kill Jonathan. It was his plan and won.
that was a stalemate at best
100 years sealed underwater is not a win
He's a vampire
Getting Jonathan while he was alone on a secluded boat away from any other allies was smart as hell though. Because DIO succeeded in getting Jonathan's body. He killed him and eventually got out of the sea. It wasn't the most ideal win, but he did win
Time means nothing
and he still loses when he wakes up for 4 years and dies anyway
because his plan was stupid
he didn't intentionally stay underwater for 100 years he just stayed there until someone picked him up
and got him killed
Hindsight is 20/20
"cant see the future" is no excuse
But he can't
he's supposed to be smart
DIO literally could not have known that the arrow would effect his body's bloodline
He is
he didn't know jotaro would even be born
or at least Dio THINKS he's smart
If he wasn't smart Jonathan would WIN
but he isnt when the height of his guile is poison
How was he supposed to know that the body would be a detriment in a fight with a highschooler?
hey, how about this
DIO feels the joestars watching him, coming for him, so he abandons the body, gets a new one and leaves Egypt
big brain move
'I feel like im being watched, time to kill an old man and a highschooler across the world'
also he was confident in jonathan's body
he thought he would be able to kill them
all of them
guess that was stupid of him, huh?
which he almost did
He... would be in a worse spot. Since he'd have to start all over again, he'd still have to have blood and time for his new body.
but a different body wouldnt fight him
he wouldnt need specific blood
He had every reason to believe he could kill them, dude
He could, I say this again,
STOP TIME
they made it all the way to Egypt and killed Ice
Dio woulda been shitting his pants if he werent a buffoon
Last time I checked, Ice couldnt leave them defenseless for multiple seconds while he mutilated them
not sure what you mean
STOPPING TIME
oh ok
Cream can just eat you in 1 bite tho
and he killed more characters than DIO did
so
Yes, but you can avoid it
Cream is invisible most of the time
You can outsmart ice
You cant outsmart SHIT if you cant move
A different body would also not be his right away
so he moves shop, and then he cant be tracked any longer
He says to Ice, "you are so lucky you have your own body, it's instantly compatible"
at least not easily through the "force" of blood
He didnt know that Jotaro could move
If he did, Id agree
But he pretty much didnt
It'd only delay the inevitable. It made sense why him with a presumably invincible power would choose to face the thorn in his side rather than run from it. Running from it would completely ruin DIO's plan of world domination.
DIO was the strongest stand user on Earth before Jotaro
How so
DIO only found out that Jotaro was a legitimate threat to him when it was too late
He had every reason to underestimate them
The Pucci plan seems like it still works without the Joestars involved imo
just let the grudge die
Id say you cant know this for sure
ha ha
As if him letting it die
Would make them let it die
If DIO let the grudge die it'd be so much harder for him to be found
and they'd have no real reason to be looking for him
Holly is not in danger
they dont even know he's present
Jotaro and co came to DIO. DIO didmt chase them.
They already know
but if this is during 3, it'd be simple to grab a new body and leave Egypt
If he is getting a new body like you say after he sees they are coming for him, they already know
and now the protagonists waste all this time getting to Egypt for nothing
and maybe Holly recovers
except for joseph's stand punching a camera and seeing a naked man with a purple star like everyone else in their family

And just the fact he put Jotaro's mom in danger, well Jotaro is coming to fuck that bastard up at least
"and maybe Holly recovers" lol
@robust linden, Your Hamon Rank is now level 15 !
that only happened because he took Jonathan's body in the first place
yes
"Waste" time?
How do they waste time
if DIO disconnected, why not?
because they get there and DIO left
thats like, the current point
a stand isnt being forcibly awakened anymore if Jonathan's corpse is just a corpse again
It makes no sense for him TO hide. The Joestars have consistently proven to DIO that they've prevailed against all odds. So it makes sense for DIO to snuff the bloodline here and there, to rip the band aid off immediately
Actually the whole "prevailing against all odds" thing should make him wanna hide
logically
No it shouldn't
headcanon
@clever coral, Your Hamon Rank is now level 4 !
He has the strongest stand in the world
A l s o, DIO can stop time. He had every reason to believe that he could beat them
literally not, if the solution is to kill DIO
to his current understanding
who is effecting Holly via bloodline
over-confident dumbass
DIO didn't disconnect
Killing DIO =/= a random disconnection could randomly save the day
To his understanding until he fought Jotaro his ability reigns over all stands
Cuz it does
I know, we're talking hypothetically right now
Because time stop is busted
headcanon
And he could trample them all easily if it wasn't for Jotaro
Which he couldn't know
abandoning all logic just to argue rn
smh
He hid enough, DIO developed the most powerful stand ability in the world. Him utilizing it to remove the thorn on his side is smart.
Says you
Thats just the way it be right now
He didnt know that Jotaro could stop time
He had reason to underestimate them
He had reason to be overconfident
no
It doesn't
If he was dumb he couldn't gather all those bastards who server him
The I stands for imbecile
jotaro stopping time couldn't have been predicted
Smarter than given credit for, but of course its Fred
The motherfucker has a whole ass cult
lmao
The O stands for obese
I don't think a dumb motherfucker can run a cult
because his ego is obese
The D in DIO stands for 'Stop pretending that he knew Jotaro could stop time and underestimated him regardless'
OFC IT IS
interesting take that glorifies cult leaders low key
let's not forget that he expected his assassins to finish off the joestars long before they were even in a mile radius of him
plz go on
DIO's ego is massive cuz he's a fucking VAMPIRE with the strongest stand ability in the fucking world
Ah yes
Smart is glorification now
To lead a cult you have to be smart enough to trick/misslead people into your cult
DIO has mind control bugs
....
so
"Being smart to lead people? So you're glorifying cult leaders?" -Fred and his 10/10 logic.
not much thinking required
He used them on 2 people in part 3
