What you just saw Dio DIO using was the Stand that would've likely awakened within Jonathan's body (which may or may not be Hermit Purple like Joseph's Stand). Y'know, were he not dead.

They said Heirophant Green had "remote stand manipulation" as a power. That nicely sidesteps the question of why he never again puppets people with the stand.

Ok, as a warning. Stardust Crusaders is mostly Monster of the Week fights. That said, they're damn entertaining fights.

[up]x6 That would have been the Stand Jonathon would have gotten right?

Not the other one DIO shows.

@ slim: Yeah, that would've been Jonathan's Stand.

@ blue: Sadly, no. Seeing Cairo and the pyramids would be cool, though.

I've heard another theory on that.

Stardust Crusaders end spoilers:

the theory goes that DIO has just one Stand; The World. And it has the abilities to awaken Stands in people from his bloodline, and to copy the form and power of any one of those Stands at a time. Which would explain why his presence now is causing the Joestars to manifest Stands, and how he can have multiple powers like this. Which would mean that he's copying Star Platinum at its full potential instead of them just being coincidentally similar.

Fun fact: The Owl never appeared this early in the manga.

Also Shinohara ran into Kaneki when just went crazy not the other way around.

Sad they really butchered the build-up to Centipede.

Also poor Jonathon, dude even got his Stand stolen.

[up] Huh that's a cool theory.

@ Enlong: I've seen that one passed around, too, and it does sound plausible, but there's an art book by Araki that notes that the ability originates from a Stand that awakened in Jonathan's body along with DIO activating his own Stand.

Just wanted to say this but Big Mom castrated Juzo with those pliers.

Also Kaneki slaughtered all the auction Ghouls in the manga & he ate them all afterwards.

[up][up] I believe so yes.

This is actually very important as it was Kaneki's rampant cannibalism that allowed him to gain the Centipede. That's how you get a Kakuja, a Ghoul has to eat a shit ton of Ghouls which was repeatedly stated several times in the manga & contributed to his mental breakdown when he finally gained the Centipede.

So yeah that's a problem with this adaptation in that it got rid of some pretty important stuff.

[up] She wanted him to stay a pretty little girl forever so she literally tore off his access to testosterone.

@Beary She seemed to be going for some kind of Killer Kid shtick with Juuzou, so maybe she just wanted to keep that going for as long as possible?
