Araki basically made Gold Experience Requiem to be so OP and invincible, that he didn't want to include Giorno in Part 6 (even in novels set after Part 5 he was never a protagionist, from what i heard), because fights with him will be really boring.

Some people want a Fugo OVA, I want an OVA starring Emporio's mom. She must have had a story, she was a prisoner, she had a kid, she was a Stand user, she was targeted by Pucci for some reason.

Would Josuke have been able to heal Jotaro after Whitesnake removed his Stand and memory discs?

Crazy Diamond's restoration ability should have been able to draw the discs back to Jotaro regardless of the distance.

The discs aren't really a physical part of someone's body, though. I can't recall Crazy Diamond repairing things on a metaphysical level.

I don't know how you can say that there arent any dark horses in Part VI when everyone constantly talks about Bohemian Rhapsody. While the user barely matters, the Stand is clearly a favorite despite its minor role.

Love how Pucci in his reveal tries to be philosophical, while the inmate only pressures him about parole and as Pucci reveals steals stuff from him.

Does Tooru's Wonder of U counter Giorno's Gold Experience Requiem?

Heck wouldn't Vitamin C counter Gold Experience Requiem.

Good question. If we're Literal-Minded about the ability description of "returning the actions and wills in attacks directed at Giorno to zero", its attack/ability negation should follow the same exploitable pursuer vs pursuee rules of Wonder of U. Giorno shouldn't be able to undo calamity because he's the one doing the pursuing, but should be able to undo rock insects because those would be Tooru doing the pursuing.

That said, I still think Giorno wins this one. Even if Wonder of U is evenly matched with GER's passive negation, GER also has the active version where it returns even the punched person's dying to zero. Giorno just has to tank some calamities and land one good Muda punch and Tooru is stuck in an infinite death loop.

You know, unless he gets brought back to voice Kira in Part 8 (which I doubt, since Gappy and Josuke are very different characters despite being counterparts), it's sad to think that Part 6 will be the last time that Daisuke Ono will ever voice Jotaro in the anime. Especially if Takehito Koyasu gets recast as Diego in Part 7, as that'll mean that DIO will have outlasted Jotaro.

I hope Koyasu doesn't voice Diego. His vocal abilities are a TREAT, to be sure, but he just doesn't fit Diego as a character.

When you bring up being Literal-Minded about Return to Zero, come to think of it....

A lot of things could still kill Giorno. Natural disasters, disease, anything that lacks a consciousness to dictate an intebtional attack or anything that isn't directly fighting Giorno. Say if someone breaks a pillar under Giorno and he falls into a ravine and GER can't save him.

Or at least, if it couldn't fly.

Say if he was trapped un q submarine. Or hell, Weather Report or Poor Tom sucking an entire room of oxygen or depressurizing one. Anything that Giorno might not see coming, or placing him in harm's way (calamaties) should work, yes.

At least we know that while unaware of Made in Heaven attacks like those seemingly aren't thwarted by GER.

Writing any sort of conflict with Giorno post arrow must be one hell of a challenge, but it's doable.

So an overpowered ability is offset by a limitation that it can't specifically affect sentient individuals.

A common rule.

Yo, hold on. People love Part 7, people can't wait for Part 7 to get adapted, but there's something INCREDIBLY important that I haven't heard much talk about and could make or break it:

Country music. Part 7's soundtrack needs to be FILLED with country western music.

In a similar vein to how Cannolo Murolo theorizes that Colony Stand users are corrupt, yet not outright evil, I'd like to propose the theory that Stand users who have control over time are naturally renegade to the laws of society and nature themselves. Even Jotaro, as despite his noble intentions, he's never one for following the rules life has set in place. Kira and Pucci used to abide by life's rules and regulations in spite of their antagonism, hence why they never received Bites the Dust and Made in Heaven until they rejected all conformity whatsoever. This theory also explains to me how Doppio isn't able to use King Crimson's full powers like Diavolo, as while Diavolo only wants to be at the top, above all conformity, Doppio is a normal person when not factoring in his Split Personality; he isn't renegade.
