7	You'd think that since this part is LighterAndSofter, ''[=JoJo=]'s Bizarre Adventure'' would let up on the horror this time around. You would be ''horribly'' [[NightmareFuel wrong]], as ''[[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureDiamondIsUnbreakable Diamond is Unbreakable]]'' goes to show.
8	----
9	* '''Everything''' about Anjuro "Angelo" Katagiri. [[WeHardlyKnewYe Despite his extremely short presence]], this guy is, without a doubt, not only the darkest StarterVillain in the series, but also hands down the evilest villain in the entire franchise, period.
10	** For starters, he's a [[PsychopathicManchild petulant]] SerialKiller and SerialRapist since [[EnfantTerrible the age of 12]], whose horrific crimes make even [[TheStoic typically stone-faced]] Jotaro [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness admit that he felt a shiver down his spine]] when reading about them (with him even [[BreakingTheFourthWall addressing the audience]] that [[YouDoNotWantToKnow they don't wanna know]], [[CallForward as it would make a sewer rat puke]]), which included kidnapping, raping, and brutally killing three teenage boys (one of whom [[GroinAttack had his genitals hacked off and nailed to a post]]) alongside countless other unspeakably horrible casualties, all [[ForTheEvulz because he can]]. His Stand can ''hide'' inside water and other liquids and kill people from the inside. He also boasts that, after he's killed Josuke and Jotaro, he will "have fun" with Josuke's mother Tomoko, and is also not above taking a child as a hostage. [[LaserGuidedKarma Luckily]], he gets [[AndIMustScream a fitting end]]. That said, he's still an absolute monster through and through who's singlehandedly responsible of kickstarting the Part's events. If that wasn't bad enough, the anime goes one step further by adding flashbacks that show very brief but [[BrainBleach unbelievably squicky glimpses]] of Angelo's crimes being depicted on-full, with ''[[NauseaFuel even more detail than the original manga]]''.
11	** There's the anime scene where Angelo [[https://youtu.be/GRY81vtr3Jc distributes a special kind of "justice" on an unsuspecting citizen who lets his pet dog poop wherever he can, even if it's on other people's lawns...]] by biting the dog's face off, spitting the gore (and his Stand) into the man's mouth, and then having his Stand erupt from the man's head to kill him, ''[[{{Gorn}} splattering his brains all over the place]]!'' [[{{Squick}} JEEZ]].
12	** Aqua Necklace's design deserves a special mention with its unnerving appearance. Sure, in the anime, [[NightmareRetardant it looks like an]] Creator/AkiraToriyama [[https://static.jojowiki.com/images/thumb/a/a2/latest/20191015214101/Aqua_taunts.png/400px-Aqua_taunts.png character]], but its [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/jjba/images/f/fe/AquaNecklace.png/revision/latest?cb=20170109073729 manga design]] looks like a giant, humanoid leech with [[EyesDoNotBelongThere eyes all over its body]], and its design in the [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/jjba/images/b/b0/Aqua_Necklace_Live_Action.png/revision/latest?cb=20170606211128 live-action movie]] is easily the most terrifying of the bunch, looking like a cross between [[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay the T-1000]] and a [[Franchise/{{Alien}} Xenomorph]].
13	** [[LaserGuidedKarma No matter how well-deserved it might be]], Angelo's fate in the live-action film adaptation stands out as being '''worse''' than that in the anime and manga. Here, we're treated to a more gradual display of just [[BodyHorror how Angelo's body parts are horrifically fused into the stone around him as Crazy Diamond repairs it and him]]. It begins pushing parts of him around as it resets, distorting his face as his last moments of begging become [[HellIsThatNoise low-pitched, garbled exhaling]]. By the point the Angelo Stone is finally christened, it's hard to tell if he's even alive compared to previous source material. AndIMustScream doesn't even ''begin'' to describe the horror of this situation.
14	* This one's related to the above. After Angelo kills Josuke's grandfather, Josuke and Jotaro are preparing to battle him. When Jotaro namedrops Angelo, we get to see a [[FreezeFrameBonus spilt-second]] JumpScare of [[UnstoppableRage a murderous Josuke]] with his [[ExpressiveHair hair standing up]]. A second later, [[MoodWhiplash he's calmly combing his hair back in shape]]. Later, [[SceneryGorn it's shown that he destroyed a bunch of objects in the room they were in]]. Suddenly Josuke's mood swings aren't so funny anymore...
15	* Pretty much anytime Josuke goes [[UnstoppableRage absolutely berserk]] will make it clear why he's the series' epitome of BewareTheNiceOnes (even more so than the NiceGuy and QuintessentialBritishGentleman that is his great-grandfather [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventurePhantomBlood Jonathan]]). The reason this is nightmarish it's because once he gets angry, he will go from [[NiceGuy the mellow, laid-back, good-hearted and morally upstanding teenager he typically is]] to a [[HairTriggerTemper horrifically savage and unstoppable destruction machine]] as well as a [[TheBerserker rampaging berserker who will trash everything on sight]]. The most extreme instance and notable example here is during Josuke's battle with Rohan, where he gets so horrifically angry he's literally BlindedByRage and [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown brutally pummels Rohan to the point of hospitalization]]. OOCIsSeriousBusiness doesn't even ''begin'' to cut it.
16	** Of special note is the Latin American Spanish dub in which Josuke's voice actor, Luis Fernando Orozco, manages to make him sound even angrier than he already is (sounding less like he typically does when calmed and more like a rabid wild animal freshly released from its cage), as he unnervingly emphasizes the "Unstoppable" in Josuke's UnstoppableRage thanks to the use of HarshVocals. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIWNQdl-sAI Bare witness]].
17	* Similarly, [[AndIMustScream what Josuke does to his worst enemies]] is also pretty terrifying. Even though they [[LaserGuidedKarma clearly deserve it]], having them permanently fused with inanimate objects (from rocks to books) while perfectly aware and conscious of their suffering and what's happening to them but are completely powerless and unable to do anything about it is absolutely horrifying, and is clearly a lot worse than [[LivingDollCollector Telence D'Arby]]'s soul collection in ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders Stardust Crusaders]]''. Granted, Josuke might be the hero of the story, but he's clearly '''''NOT''''' to be messed with or even taken lightly, as he will happily apply this FateWorseThanDeath on you even if you deserve it.
18	* Everything that happened to Father Nijimura. When his wife dies and he loses his job, Nijimura meets DIO and decides to sell his soul to him, with DIO rewarding him with treasures for his work. DIO, however, has also implanted a flesh bud in Nijimura's brain. When DIO was killed by Jotaro, the flesh bud goes wild and mutates Nijimura into a mindless, mutated monster. The now-mutated Nijimura has a green, blistered skin and a disfigured face, and he also can't talk and doesn't recognize his two sons. To make matters worse, Nijimura became immortal, with his mutated body quickly healing any injury inflicted on him and forcing him to live a cruel, miserable life as his elder son, Keicho Nijimura, devotes his life to [[MercyKill find a stand user that will put him out of his misery]]. Being an [[AbusiveParents abusive father]] to his sons even before meeting DIO, Nijimura may had it coming, but it's nevertheless disturbing.
19	** To make matters worse, Father Nijimura may not be the only victim of DIO to suffer from this.
20	* Tamami's first appearance shows him scamming and extorting people by using his Stand, The Lock, to crushingly weigh them down with their guilt. He is also willing to harm your family members, [[{{Frameup}} framing]] you and manipulating them into thinking you're a horrible person, thus [[DrivenToSuicide driving them to suicide]] (which would have happened if it weren't for Koichi's Stand).
21	* Yukako is one of the earliest examples of {{Yandere}} in manga: in her introduction, she lights a girl's hair on fire, blinds her, and binds her tongue just because she was helping Koichi with his classroom chores. She then kidnaps Koichi, forcing him to experience humiliating events that ruin his self-esteem, insulting him at every turn, "training" him, and even beating him up and trying to kill him multiple times.
22	** Take out the Stands, and suddenly you have something that could be on the news. An otherwise normal high school girl develops an unhealthy obsession with a boy. The girl kidnaps the boy, and gets progressively crazier as they don't return the affection, eventually trying to kill them because of their own insane logic of "they will always live on as a memory I love". ''Yikes...''
23	* Yukako suddenly appearing [[http://images.8tracks.com/cover/i/001/980/142/tumblr_mz6415hP9O1s9ho4po1_500-6552.jpg?rect=0,17,500,500&q=98&fm=jpg&fit=max outside of Koichi's window.]] [[http://i3.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/123/312/eca.gif The anime makes the scene]] much worse.
24	* While Toshikazu Hazamada is generally treated as a joke, it's disturbing that he seems to be heading in the direction of a full-fledged sociopath by the way he stabs a classmate in the eye via his Stand ([[DisproportionateRetribution because the classmate insulted a show he liked, mind]]) and torments cats and birds. The only reason he hasn't flat-out raped his crush Junko is that he'd get caught.
25	* Rohan Kishibe's Stand, Heaven's Door, makes your entire life's experiences and memory appear as open books on your flesh. The thing is, it looks like he just ''flayed your skin off''. It gets even worse when he ''tears a page out'', as the person actually loses weight (meaning that, yes, he actually tore out a chunk of their body), and if he tears all the pages out, the person dies (and he was planning on doing this to Koichi when they met just for the sake of his manga).
26	** He ''unravels'' Okuyasu, leaving him with coiled slinky limbs, unable to control his own movements, and, should he have interfered any farther, Rohan had written that he would commit suicide by self-immolation.
27	** The way Heaven's Door activates looks even creepier in the live-action adaptation of ''Manga/ThusSpokeKishibeRohan'', since the pages don't appear immediately - we're treated to an agonizing few seconds of the subject's skin slowly splitting apart before the pages open and the subject falls unconscious.
28	** A different flavor of this is when he uses Heaven's Door on Hayato. Imagine you're Rohan: you have a Stand that allows you unlimited, totally truthful access to a person's memories and identity, so it's basically become second nature for you to use Heaven's Door to investigate suspicious people. When you come across Hayato -- who is not only acting suspicious, but is more specifically trying to keep from telling you something he ''wants'' to tell you -- you naturally use Heaven's Door to figure out what the hell's going on, but as you leaf through Hayato's pages you see a message that, unlike everything else Heaven's Door has ever printed, ''directly addresses you'': '''"DO NOT READ FURTHER."''' And then there's what happens next, which can only be described as InUniverse TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou... it's enough to make you hold your books at arm's length for a while.
29	* The side effects of Tonio Trussardi's Stand, Pearl Jam. More specifically, what it does to his cooking. Sure, it's meant to heal and rejuvenate the body, but damn! Okuyasu's eyeballs shriveling up, a mass of dead skin peeling off his body, ''his guts exploding''... no wonder Josuke was alarmed when he starts suffering the side effects of the healing process.
30	** When Josuke investigates Tonio's kitchen, it literally plays off like a horror movie, with Tonio going complete psycho and the visuals and music getting all dark and serious, culminating in Tonio leaping up behind Josuke, as if about to strike him with a brick...and turns out it's just a bar of soap, as Tonio's BerserkButton is people entering his kitchen without washing their hands. Nonetheless, the entire scene plays off very dark and sinister, even though it all ends well.
31	** That said, Tonio did throw a knife at Josuke and narrowly missed his face by an inch...
32	** And that's not to mention the adorable little puppy in Tonio's kitchen, who, given Jojo's track record in dogs, doesn't look very promising. He feeds it a bone from his roast lamb recipe, and the puppy happily chews on the bone, before ''it starts twitching violently, regurgitates its own intestines, and explodes in a shower of blood.'' The puppy is later shown to be unharmed and Tonio was just giving it a taste because it also had tummy problems, but nonetheless, seeing a dog vomit out its own innards is still a rather horrifying sight, context or not...
33	* The pair of rats Jotaro and Josuke look for. They have the ability to [[http://www.batoto.net/read/_/133894/jojos-bizarre-adventure-part-4-diamond-is-unbreakable_v35_ch326_by_the-invincible-trio/13 shoot a barb that melts and fuse bodies together like gelatin]], while they're alive.
34	** The [[UpliftedAnimal intelligence]] of the rats, Bug-Eaten in particular. They have the same human-level mind as other Stand-using animals like Iggy, Forever, and Pet Shop, being able to calculate which direction its shots will ricochet off of. However, unlike them, the rats ''don't'' have humanized qualities to show their emotions. They have the same eyes as real animals. They're less humanized than ''[[AxCrazy freaking Pet Shop]]'' and just as smart and aggressive.
35	** '''The rat corpse cube.''' Jesus Christ... ''It's not even censored in the anime!''
36	** There's also the fate of the couple living in the farmhouse that Bug-Eaten takes over, [[BodyHorror melted into a blob of meat and locked in their fridge to be used as a buffet for the rats]], a horrified Josuke notes by their heads that [[AndIMustScream they're still alive and moving]]; thankfully, the fact that they ''are'' still alive means Josuke ([[OffscreenInertia hopefully]]) fixes them up with Crazy Diamond offscreen without much difficulty, as he can easily heal the similar wounds Jotaro suffers.
37	** There's also the fact that Jotaro was essentially one more needle away from becoming a melted goo pile of food for the bastard. ''A merciless Stand-using rat did more raw damage to Jotaro in the span of a minute than '''[[GreaterScopeVillain DIO]]''' did in the entirety of Part 3.''
38	* Akira Otoishi's Red Hot Chili Pepper may be the DiscOneFinalBoss, but he's pretty scary in his own right. A Stand that draws strength from electricity in a world where it is very hard to avoid it, with unlimited range as long as there's electricity nearby, and can drag you into a power line to kill you like he did with Keicho Nijimura? It's a good thing that Akira Otoishi isn't very smart. If he'd decided to attack the heroes in their sleep, this season would be a lot shorter.
39	* There's a corner where Reimi's ghost resides, and the only way to get out is to turn after 20 feet. If you ever turn completely around at the wrong point, [[http://i.imgur.com/XyGNZCt.jpg this happens]] and you're DraggedOffToHell. This is Kira's ultimate fate.
40	** Kira definitely gets it the worst. When Koichi or Cheap Trick turned around, they were simply grabbed. When it happens to Kira? '''''He [[LiterallyShatteredLives shatters]].'''''
41	* Yoshikage Kira in general. He's a 33-year-old man but has no qualms about beating down and killing a 14-year-old boy. In Reimi's backstory, he slashes her dog's throat and murders her parents, then hides under her bed and ''licks her hands'' before killing her too. In the story proper, he kills another man and assimilates his identity to keep himself hidden, mentally torments a woman he intends to kill after blowing up her boyfriend, murders his 11-year-old "son", and maybe most disturbing is the fact that he will ''absolutely'' keep his identity a secret no matter what.
42	** The speech he gives to a bewildered Shigechi before unveiling Killer Queen is oddly passive, Kira giving not only his name but describing his daily routine in [[TooMuchInformation uncomfortably-thorough detail]]. Not simply because of the content but [[SoftSpokenSadist the cold, neutral tone he employs throughout.]] And then you realize -- like Shigechi does, too late -- that the reason Kira [[JustBetweenYouAndMe is freely giving this deeply-personal information]] is because ''[[WouldHurtAChild he intends for Shigechi to take it to his grave.]]''
43	--->'''Kira''': You can call me Yoshikage Kira. I'm currently 33 years old. Not that you'd care, but I reside in northeast Morioh's villa district. Also, I've yet to marry. In order to make a living, I work for Kame Yu department stores. After a long day's work, I return home no later than 8 PM. I don't like smoking, but do enjoy the occasional drink. I'm always in bed by 11 PM, and I make it a point to get no less than eight hours of sleep each night. Before bed, I drink a warm glass of milk. It's always coupled with twenty minutes of stretching to decompress from the long work day. Sweet dreams are the usual result of this. I then awake as refreshed and recharged as a newborn child, ready to take on the day's challenges. And after my last checkup, I was given a clean bill of health.\
44	'''Shigechi''': [[LampshadeHanging Hey... what's the big idea, creeper? Why are you telling me this crap?!]]\
45	'''Kira''': [[CreatureOfHabit For as long as I can remember, I've done everything in my power to live a productive life that allows me to pursue a lasting inner peace.]] This may be a foreign concept, but I choose not to concern myself with winning or losing, life's troubles, or enemies who bring sleepless nights. That is how I cope with this backwards life we find ourselves living. It's what brings me happiness in a world fraught with hardship and misery. [[SmugSuper Of course, if I were ever to engage in combat, I would win the battle without question.]] In other words, Shigechi, you are an irksome troublemaker who stands to hinder my sleep. [[LetsGetDangerous You, boy, are the enemy.]]\
46	'''''Killer Queen manifests in full'''''\
47	'''Shigechi''': Th-Th-That's...\
48	'''Kira''': Killer Queen. I named it myself, and truth be told, I'm quite proud of the moniker. [[HeKnowsTooMuch But before you have the chance to utter a word of this to another soul, I shall eradicate you. I'll sleep soundly tonight... I can already feel it.]]
49	** To give a scope of how long he's been getting away as a SerialKiller, he's been killing people since the year Josuke was born, while ''he was as old as Jotaro'' in Stardust Crusaders.
50	** His "father-son" moment with Hayato. Here is a man who Hayato has known to not act like his real father for months, getting into a tub with him and telling him not to investigate further. Poor kid must have been having a [[{{Pun}} heart attack]] throughout the whole scene.
51	** The anime naturally makes his presence all the more unsettling with his trademark theme and a few new [[NightmareFace nightmarish faces]] [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cxjkmi-UkAAWmmh.jpg:large that weren't in the original comic]].
52	*** And speaking of nightmarish faces that weren't in the original manga, how about the infamous [[https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/001/196/367/c6c.gif "Hayato"]] face? Sure, it's been [[MemeticMutation memed]] to the Ghost Alley and back, but in the context of the episode, not only does it show how confident Kira has become over time, but the face itself is a flat-out JumpScare, with nobody expecting it the first time around.
53	** The English dub manages to make Kira even ''more'' terrifying. How, you ask? By portraying him for who he is: a predatory, hyper-competent serial killer. He never, ever raises his voice beyond a [[SoftSpokenSadist soft, sweet whisper]], even as he casually explains his Stand's morbid abilities or threatens his opponents. He sounds so ''normal'' during all of this, as if the act of killing is as natural to him as breathing, or a part of his daily routine. And the cherry on top? He has the [[Creator/DCDouglas voice]] of [[Franchise/ResidentEvil Albert Wesker]] and [[VideoGame/{{Persona 5}} Suguru Kamoshida]].
54	** [[Creator/DCDouglas Douglas's]] performance for Kira is even more terrifying just because of how it adds to [[TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse Kira's facade of an average, unremarkable salaryman]]. [[Creator/ToshiyukiMorikawa Toshiyuki Morikawa's]] voice made Kira sound somewhat normal, but still gave him a bit of a refined and sophisticated touch. With Douglas? Kira genuinely sounds like anyone else - [[ParanoiaFuel a guy you hang out with at the bar, or at work, or at the gym...]] it makes Kira's [[EstablishingCharacterMoment introductory scene]] - where he's driving his "girlfriend" over to his house - all the more unsettling; he genuinely sounds like just a regular businessman making small talk with his sweetheart about his house and family while they head off for a nice weekend together, not acting at all like there's ''anything'' off about his "date."
55	** That demeanor, however, is turned right on its head when Rohan is killed by Bites the Dust. Kira's voice goes from calm and understated to mocking and almost ''gleeful''. It's like we're seeing just how much satisfaction Kira gets from killing others.
56	--->'''Kira:''' Killer Queen has already entered your pupil, Rohan Kishibe! No, you're not seeing things. Killer Queen's Third Bomb has already been activated! Your time has ''COME!''
57	* [[ActionBomb Sheer Heart Attack.]] When it isn't loudly exclaiming "Over here!", it is [[NighInvulnerability completely indestructible]], chases whatever the warmest thing in the vicinity is, and the explosion is bigger based on how hot that heat source is. The worst part? Even if you trick it, it seems to know whether it did or didn't kill a human. Even worse, if you're not a Stand User, you can still see tread marks crawling around you... especially if you're wondering why your arm got blown off. Just ask the shoe shop owner who did Kira's jacket.
58	** Made worse in the [[Main/TheFilmOfTheSeries live-action film]], where instead of Red Hot Chili Pepper being the one who kills Keicho... IT'S SHEER HEART ATTACK.
59	*** Sheer Heart Attack in the live-action film is considerably more deadly. In the anime, it was slow but unstoppable. Here it's still as unstoppable, but moves faster than an RC car. An invincible bomb that can come at you in the blink of an eye.
60	*** Keicho's death in the film is '''[[BloodierAndGorier even worse]]'''. The damn thing rams into his stomach and drills into his body (fortunately off-screen) with some sickening crunching and squelching noises. A few seconds later, Keicho turns to face the others, and we're greeted by the sight of SHA ''sticking out of his mouth'', chattering and clicking like a pair of wind-up teeth. Keicho can't move and is in agony, and then he blows up. While Kira's always had a sadistic side, this is easily his [[BloodierAndGorier most brutal murder]] so far. As much of an asshole as Keicho was, it's as bad or maybe even worse than his anime/manga fate of electrocution by Red Hot Chili Pepper.
61	** Killer Queen's explosions also ''completely obliterate a person''. The only thing left of Shigechi was a few out of ''hundreds'' of Harvest. The anime goes as far as showing the victims' ''souls'' also getting torn apart in the afterlife.
62	** In episode 34, we finally get to witness Killer Queen's explosions from a InvisibleToNormals perspective. The only thing we hear to signify that Killer Queen activated is a small click. Aside from that, we see Kira's latest victim get reduced to a hand, and it's completely unnerving hearing nothing as a woman's twitching hand suddenly stops and the rest of her turns to a puff of smoke. A sharp contrast to the visible and loud explosions that Stand users can see.
63	* The original Kosaku Kawajiri's corpse, slouched over a table with his ''[[TearOffYourFace face sliced off]]'', is probably one of the most gruesome and nightmarish shots of the whole season, especially as in this case, the gore is fully uncensored.
64	* What happens to Masazo Kinoto once Cheap Trick leaves his body... It essentially involves Cheap Trick leaving the host by flaying their back, causing them to die from blood loss. If that wasn't bad enough, their corpse is reduced to an indistinguishable shriveled fetus-like corpse that you can hold in the palm of your hand.
65	* Superfly is an independent Stand that traps a person inside, and turns them into metal if they try to leave. If you try to destroy it, it will rebound any damage dealt to it back at the attacker. And as an independent Stand, it'll continue existing for pretty much the rest of time. Sounds like an [[Website/SCPFoundation SCP]].
66	** The manga does mention that Super Fly needs a "host" because it cannot produce by itself the spiritual energy required to maintain the Stand. Meaning that there is a way to destroy it: having everyone currently inside the tower ''die.''
67	* The anime adaptation added a very creepy moment to the first episode. You see a happy morning in a happy neighborhood in Morioh, as the radio host happily announces it's morning and puts on some cheery music, while showing the hand of a woman making breakfast. And then the camera zooms out from the hand as the music distorts, revealing that this hand is ''severed''. Especially jarring for fans who hadn't read the manga and had their guard lowered by the appearance of a LighterAndSofter season; the character responsible for this severed hand (or as he calls it, one of his "girlfriends") doesn't even appear proper until several arcs later, leaving it unexplained for the moment.
68	** Another such moment appears at the end of Episode 12.
69	* Highway Star is a Stand that drains people's nutrients and [[BodyHorror their skin becomes transparent til the bones are visible]], which got demonstrated on poor Rohan when he gets taken hostage. Josuke is later subjected to the effects a few times as well.
70	** The anime made it worse by also making Rohan's ''veins'' visible as well when he becomes affected, along with a [[HellIsThatNoise short dubstep-like noise that repeats itself like a heartbeat rhythm]] as Highway Star drains his energy.
71	* The second anime OP, Chase, is, in contrast to the fist-pumping pulp stylings of its predecessors, a horrific and oftentimes surreal sequence. Nearly the entire thing is in monochrome colors, and the imagery is gritty and drab.
72	* For a brief moment in the second half of Kira's anime debut, Killer Queen is drawn with [[https://65.media.tumblr.com/5e56035579cd13aec28c4a18bf684587/tumblr_ocjwhjtLw51qb8kdzo10_r2_1280.jpg an unnervingly realistic skull]] (that has ''human'' teeth rather than feline), and GIANT, blazing red eyes. It comes right the hell out of nowhere, too; not only had the Stand's first appearance been horribly OffModel, but there's nothing like it in the manga.
73	* Seven words. Killer Queen's Third Bomb: Bites the Dust.
74	** Especially from Hayato's perspective, which is equal parts terrifying and outright hopeless. Imagine being a child who just got found out by a killer masquerading as their father; despite that, life goes on. Like Hayato, maybe you would feel like you have something to blackmail the killer with. Now imagine that on a car ride to school, you encounter someone who suspects your "father" to be the killer and when he tries to find out more information about you, he suddenly explodes. [[GroundhogDayLoop Next thing you know, it is the same morning again]], with only you and the killer having knowledge about what happened. And then you find out that the killer essentially planted a bomb inside you that would kill anyone who knew his identity and that you actually died the night before, before he used his new ability to reverse that. Now you try avoiding talking to this person again, but he ''just dies anyway'', and now his friends have gotten curious and are now stuck in this timeloop of dying. And not even trying to kill yourself will save you, because Bites the Dust is also determined to keep its "host" alive. Read that last sentence again. HOST. Bites the Dust does not have a user. It has a host. This thing is essentially a PARASITE Stand. It's the only one that benefits from this whole experience.
75	** Somehow the anime rendition of Bites the Dust is ''even worse''. Imagine watching people explode ''[[HarmfulToMinors right in front of your eyes]]'' after they either try to question you about the serial killer who's [[KillAndReplace killed and replaced your father]] and then being sent screaming into a horrifying technicolor eye-shaped time warp to the beginning of the day as that horrible, ''horrible'' monster your father's killer implanted in you [[https://archive.fo/iOvLt/ca479862fd71ee6ebf56e7f65ff70923d5e9dc68 sits on your chest and just]] ''looks at you with its [[RedEyesTakeWarning glowing red eyes]].'' No wonder Hayato tried to kill himself with an exacto knife!
76	** Speaking of the anime, ''[[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou Episode 36's opening]]''; As Hayato experiences the horror of Bites The Dust's first time loop, the opening begins as usual, and nothing seems all that out of the ordinary...until Kira first appears onscreen, at which point-'''CLICK!''' Bites The Dust activates ''in the opening, reversing it from end to beginning,'' ''[[HellIsThatNoise all while a creepy whirling rewinding noise plays.]]'' That's right - [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou Kira's trapped]] ''[[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou you]]'' [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou in Bites The Dust's cycle]], unable to do anything but watch helplessly as his new power kills and resets, kills and resets...again and ''again'' and '''''again.''''' It makes ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders -end of THE WORLD-'s]]'' alternate opening with DIO downright ''tame'' in comparison. [[NightmareRetardant Thankfully]], it's somewhat mitigated by two things: the [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic second half of]] ''[[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic Great Days]]'' [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic playing throughout]] (barring the beginning, as mentioned above), and the fact that at the end of the opening, which leaves on a shot of Kira pressing the trigger for a new cycle, [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome all the main cast have now turned around to face him]], [[{{Foreshadowing}} having finally caught on to his tricks and ready to give him his just desserts.]]
77	** The segment that starts off Bites the Dust's arc is pretty unnerving too. Remember that triumphant moment when Hayato stood his ground against Kira in the aforementioned bathtub scene? The next time we see the boy, he's lifeless with [[DiesWideOpen eyes wide open]], bleeding from the head and stuffed into the bathroom closet. And Shinobu was ''this'' close to finding her own son's corpse before Bites the Dust emerged for the first time.
78	* During the second opening of the anime, a brief moment is dedicated to Yoshihiro, showcasing a variety of photos of him holding the Arrow. One of them, however, is under the effects of Atom Heart Father, meaning that [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou he's staring directly at you.]]
79	* The anime adds a (mercifully) brief scene of Kira's head being twisted backwards by the ambulance tire. Small wonder his face was completely unrecognizable afterwards. To add to it, DP not only added a shot of Kira's [[OhCrap sudden realization]] of what's about to happen, but also a SickeningCrunch to accompany his neck snapping. Even worse, as his corpse is being covered up, we are treated to a small but thankfully censored glimpse of the kind of damage his face took: the entire left side has been ''completely torn open''!
