* RecursiveFanfiction: Is one to the [[VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureThe7thStandUser the fangame]] it adapts. While it draws from the existing setting from that game, this story takes a handful of creative liberties with it.

* OutOfTheFryingPan: How Oingo's defeat plays out, doubling as a slight NotHisSled: When the car everyone is in nears the hospital and when Oingo (who is disguised as Jotaro) is trying to dissuade Polnareff from digging into the orange bomb (saying it could have come from the gutter), Hitomi makes a snide joke [[ContinuityNod recalling the events of the Justice arc]], which [[spoiler:annoys Polnareff to where he throws away the orange. Oingo thinks he's saved until he sees the real Jotaro in the distance before anyone else could, causing him to demand the car to be stopped, now claiming he has to rush to the dry cleaners. He ends up being caught up in being alive and seeing Boingo in the distance that he doesn't undo his disguise...and he ends up stepping on the orange bomb anyway. This version of the arc makes two {{Hope Spot}}s for Oingo before he got blown up (and three if you count the first time he got rid of the orange)]].

* BaitAndSwitch: When Oingo and Boingo are introduced, they're referred to as Zenyatta and Mondatta by Whitney, their DubNameChange. After Whitney leaves, it's revealed they're still called Oingo and Boingo, and that the other names were just cover names they used around Whitney since she's a servant of Dio that was kicked out for [[spoiler:murdering her own sister]].

* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: Faith commits suicide with a pistol he had handy once he's defeated in chapter 32. Specifically, he did it so that Joseph wouldn't be able to reveal what he knows about Dio with Hermit Purple.



* HeroOfAnotherStory: Played with, as in chapter 15, Joseph is recounting some of the events of ''Battle Tendency'' to Hitomi, and he's seen telling her of his final battle with Kars and the aftermath. Of course, here we know what Joseph's story was.
* JustJokingJustification: Overlapping with ThisIsGonnaSuck, [[spoiler:Rainbow meekly does this once Hitomi tells her she heard of what her Stand did to Jotaro and Kakyoin earlier in chapter 32, which is right after Hitomi decides to heal her despite the conflict from before. [[LaserGuidedKarma She gets punched unconscious for it]] and some of her money taken by Hitomi as she does a BondOneLiner]].
-->'''Hitomi''': [[spoiler: Don't forget to pay your medical bill.]]
* LaserGuidedKarma: Steely Dan's eventual comeuppance is not only for everything he originally does, but also manipulating and even taking advantage of Hitomi.
* LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain: In chapter 32, Jotaro and Kakyoin touch base regarding [[spoiler:their actions while under attack by a new ability of Rainbow's Stand (which caused them to say ''a lot'' of inappropriate things to one another while arguing, to say the least)]], in which Jotaro says they're cool as long as it's not brought up again.

** Played With. During the fight with Midler, [[spoiler:the ruse that the group does in canon to attempt to deceive Midler fails because Midler spotted how Jotaro held Hitomi earlier on. When that happens, the group tries a new one that's instead about refuting Hitomi's attractiveness, albeit at her expense as she reminds herself they don't actually mean it. However, Jotaro just tells Midler to shut up instead, which then commences Midler's attack from the original manga/anime]].
