[[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventurePhantomBlood Just because Dio is out of the picture for now]], it doesn't mean that ''Battle Tendency'' doesn't have any more horrors that will make you scream ''"OHHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"''

* [[FateWorseThanDeath Kars' fate]]. After getting blasted into orbit by Joseph and the Hamon-boosted power of an active volcano, he attempts to get back to Earth using his air jets and wings, only for his body to freeze solid and eventually turn to stone due to his AdaptiveAbility against the extremely cold vacuum; [[AndIMustScream leaving him helplessly drifting through deep space for eternity as a creature caught half-way between organic and mineral]]. As his immortality renders him unable to die naturally, Kars is left begging for ''something'' out there to kill him; and eventually, [[GoMadFromTheIsolation his mind shuts down altogether from the isolation and sheer despair]]. Kars' descent into blind panic when he realises he can't escape nor control his own movement -- and especially his agonised screaming right before he's fully petrified -- sum up just how ''dire'' the whole situation is [[UltimateLifeForm even for him]]. It's even worse in the manga, where [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4_90.jpg he turns into this.]]
-->'''Kars''': [[BigNo NO!!! AUUUGHH!!! NOOOO!!!]] (''calms down'') Don't panic... just find the Earth. (''sprouts air jets to try and push himself toward Earth'') I'll use air to change my trajectory! Once I'm back on solid ground, I will tear that boy apart! (''freezes over'') REAUUURRRGHHH!!! [[OhCrap NO! It's not working! I'm freezing!]] The air is freezing around me! The moment it comes out of the jets, it turns to ice! (''attempts to use his wings, which also immediately freeze'') I... can't change my path! '''[[VillainousBreakdown I CAN'T MOVE!]] ''[[AndIMustScream NOOOOUUUAAAAARRRGGGH!!!!!!]]'''''
-->'''Narrator''': (''Flash-forward to Kars, [[TakenForGranite now turned to stone]]'') So ended Kars, last and greatest of the Pillar Men. His body turned hard as rock, and he floated through space for the rest of time, never to return. (''Kars floats through the void of space'') [[DeathSeeker He wished for death, but there was nothing out there to kill him]]. The spark of thought within him went dim... and then, ''silent''.

* Wammu's [[NauseaFuel introduction]] involves him [[TheAssimilator assimilating]] a row of [[ThoseWackyNazis Nazi soldiers]] in a very [[NightmareFuel/DragonBallZ Cell-like]] fashion, [[BodyHorror drinking them until they're reduced to deflated blobs of skin]].

* [[UltimateLifeForm Kars the Ultimate Life Form]]. Much like all the Pillar Men, he was a strong-enough foe before, but after [[FromBadToWorse being powered up by the Red Stone of Aja and the Stone Mask]], he becomes an all-powerful amalgamation of the DNA from every creature that's ever lived or ever ''will'' live on Earth. Not only can he now use [[PowerCopying Hamon]] that burns ''as hot as the core of the Sun''[[note]] 27 million degrees Fahrenheit, or 15 million degrees Celsius.[[/note]] alongside [[BloodyMurder Esidisi]] and [[RazorWind Wammu's]] powers, his general abilities are amplified to a ridiculous degree -- with some serious BodyHorror on the side whenever he partially-shapeshifts to use his animalistic abilities -- and due to a combination of CompleteImmortality and a [[FromASingleCell healing factor leagues more powerful]] than any vampire or Pillar Man, he literally '''[[InvincibleVillain cannot die]]'''. It's telling when just the very sight of Kars [[RemovedAchillesHeel standing triumphantly in direct sunlight]] is enough to elicit a MassOhCrap from all parties present.
