** For all his so-called devotion to his country, he doesn't seem to care that he is ruining the lives of plenty of his own countrymen while trying to achieve his goals. And after his stand getting an upgrade in the form of Love Train, when he sees innocent Americans getting injured and killed in his stead, he's not even disturbed but rather amazed at his new ability.
** While he says that his philosophy is based on 'take the first napkin', in which he will take the napkin he so desires and everyone else will have to pick their napkins accordingly. However, Valentine's goal is to have the Corpse make all misfortune on America be redirected to the rest of the world, as shown when he redirects Johnny's attacks to people living in other countries, which results in the deaths of maybe hundreds of innocents. Valentine is not merely taking the first napkin, he's taking the ''only'' napkin.

** In general, he manipulates the entire nation in order to obtain his goal with the Corpse Parts, discarding them on a moment's notice once they fail or outlive their purpose. His typical method, [[spoiler:even just before his death]] is to rely on a hired thug to deal with his enemy.



* MesACrowd: At one point, Valentine along with two other alternate dimension copies attack Diego Brando. [[CurbstompBattle They lost]].

* NormalFishInATinyPond: Downplayed. On its own merits, [=D4C=] would be a powerful Stand comparable to the strongest combat type Stands of previous Parts, even discounting its overwhelming ability. Due to the majority of the Stands in this part being more ability based to aid their users in direct combat rather than having the capability of fighting themselves, [=D4C=] is able to be even more of a threat than it would be in the previous Parts, due to being able to give its user an ability to use to deadly effect while also being able to physically attack enemies as well. It would take miraculous circumstances to even generate a Stand capable of fighting it on equal terms and overpower it in its base form, let alone its Love Train upgrade.

Added DiffLines:

* PopularityPolynomial: [[invoked]] His backstory is a whole rollercoaster of gaining and losing popularity. First as a circus performer (due to CreativeDifferences), then a boxer (refusing to lose a rigged match), then a tabloid journalist (MisBlamed for a fake story about an alien that was really a shaved monkey). Organizing the Steel Ball Run has brought him back to another high point. [[spoiler:His reputation takes another hit after the race due to the numerous deaths, but he manages to fix that by donating the money he made from the race to charity.]]

* ArtEvolution: After she's revealed to be a woman, her design becomes less androgynous and more feminine than when she first appeared.



* DeathIsDramatic: [[spoiler:In a rarity for the Jojo series, this is '''averted'''. Her death happens extremely quickly and in a sudden way, with Lucy's Stand Ticket to Ride filling her with spiders, flies and window frames in less than 2 pages before she dies without even realizing what happened or getting the usual {{Famous Last Word}}s (Unless, of course, if you count her surprised expression one). The heroes don't even know she died until Valentine tells Johnny during the final battle]]!
